WASHINGTON, August 10. - fhe
special news printed IN Neg York
psper to-day from Msxico is discussed
heresbout as follows: The Isissicf
Court has pronounced sentence against
Cutting. An appeal to the Saprens
Court Of Chihuahua has been taken.
That tribunal will IN q day or two sas.
tam the decision Of the lower court.
According TO the Mexican Constitution
the Federal power has then 40 opportu-
nifty for display. The sentence will 20
into operation ~ soon ss the decision Of
the higher tribunal Of the State has
been pronounced. II is expected that
The judgment will be sdverss.
Cutting will then 60 TO prison.
HE WILL BE PARpoNED.
After undergoing the sentence for .
day or two, President Disz vill pardon
him. The purpose is TO satisfy The
local prejudice and What is termed
down there "ths national honor"
There IL no intention to 20 further and
insist upon the fun execution Of the
sentence. This view Of the matter bss
been entertained here BY many who en-
10Y the confidence Of the state Depart
ment- IL is . common-sense vies.
THE LABOR BUREAU
has decided to use the appropriation
made ct the late session, the amount Of
which is te2, 600, in two prime objects
investigation Of the various strikes, and
study Of the convict system in the diff.
f.rent States. Its the purpose to make
IN elaborate report and have il rssdy-
before Congress- mests-Nt the time when
the regular Department reports are sub
mitted. Heretofore the labor report
hes been irregular in its time or issss.
Tbs Bureau is fully alive 10 the i'm
portanee Of the subjects they have taken
in hand, and the preparation il, in .
large measure, complete Is to ons Of
them. For several months the news
paper files oftbe Congressional Library
have been examined, and full notes Of
oil facts made out by corps Of conps-
tent clerks.
SHOULD THEY REMAIN.
The view adopted in this column this
morning that 500 many experienced
men are leaving the halls Of Congress
is contested by an old and intelligent
employee. He says that the average
member gains nothing for himself, and
certainly nothing for his constituents
BY staying here longer than two terms.
BY the way, the types made me say
MIR. Wise had been here only two years
His opinion is that the member who
knows be can be easily reelected be-
comes very careless, aud. in some
instances, personally demorslized. He
neglects public for private business or
pleasures. The people do not knov in
every case bow matters stand. They
are often deceived. But if the repre-
sentative feels that be is to have only .
/ short term in Office be becomes very
assiduous and careful about sil matters
concerning his district or the general
welfare. This gentleman thinks that Y
senators were not re-eligible after one
term Ct six years and representatives
after two terms Of two years each, the
public good would be promoted. There
may be two sides 10 the question, bat
the ruls would not woik well If adopted.
