Protection of Life in Coal Mines.

The House Committee on Mines and Mining
yesterday agreed upon bill having for its OBJ
ject the better protection of the lives of persons
employed in coal mines in the Territories
Besides providing for appointment of mine in
spectors, the bill would compel owners or man
other outlets, separated by natural strata of
not less than $50 feet in breadth, by which
shafts, slopes, or outlets distinct means of
ingress and egress shall always be available to
the persons employed in said mines, and makes
the employment of child labor in mines mis-
demeanOr.

France Will Recognize Brazil.

PARIS, June 14.-According to several Paris
ian newspapers NJ. Ribot, Minister of Foreign
Affairs, is about to declare the recognition by
France of the Brazilian provisional govern
ment, and has intimated to Senior Itajuba, the
Brazilian representative, that President Carnot
is ready to receive him. The same journals also
say that the Brazilian government has agreed
to submit to arbitration the question of the
frontier between French Guiana and Brazil, TO
relax the export duty Cn rubber, and to exempt
French subjects from the application of the de-
cree that every one who was in Brazilian ter
ritory on the day the republic was proclaimed
should be regarded as a citizen of Brazil.

The Capital bicycle Club Likely to Go In

The Capital bicycle Club Likely to Go In
With the Potomac Athletics.
The Capital City Bicycle Club held an i'm
portant meeting last night at their clubhouse
on Fifteenth street. The club is anxious to
secure athletic grounds and to that end a COM
mittee has been at work for some time They
have an option on ten-acre field beyond Ross
lyn at the Virginia end of the Long Bridge,
but this site does not suit many members. 1t
being understood that the Potomac Athletic
Club was anxious to have the Capital Bicycle
Club amalgamate with them and share their
new grounds, committee with Mr.. Douglas
Dyrenforth as chairman was appointed to con-
suit with any committee appointed by the
Potomac Athletics for the same purpose If
the amalgamation is effected the Capital Club
gets joint possession of one of the prettiest
quarter-mile tracks in America, as well as a
field adapted to every kind of athletic sport.

Mrs. Lydia II. Tilton, of Washington, the sec

and Labor and the House Committee on AL
coholic Liquor Traffic to representatives OF
various temperance and prohibition organiza-
tions in favor of the adoption of the joint reso-
luton proposing a prohibition amendment to
the Constitution. Louis Schade, of this city,
opposed the resolution.

FIVE SHILLINGS A DAY.
Capitol Laborers Say They Cannot Live as
Recomes Americans on this Amount.

Capitol Laborers Say They Cannot Live as
Becomes Americans on this Amount.
People who listen to the debates in either
House of Congress know how frequently some
strong-lunged patriot raises his voice in horror
struck reference to the pauper labor of Europe,
and protests against anything and everything
which even in the remotest degree may be sus-
pected of having a tendency to reduce Amer
lean workmen to the same deplorable condi-
ton. No one, of course, would dream that
within the sound of these humanitarian voices
about the beautiful grounds of the Capitol
American workmen were at that very instant
digging, and raking, and moving, and scraping
for the miserable pittance of 62! cents
a day. Yet such is the fact.
These labOrers about the Capitol
grounds are nominally employed at the rate of
$1.25 day, but as they are allowed to work
but half the time their wages really amount -
but half that sum. Not only is this the case,
but it is permitted to 90 on, despite the fact
that in 1868 Congress passed law that no en-
ploye of the Government shall be paid less than
S2 day. The workmen declare they cannot
live on siXty-two and half cents day, GER
tainly not up to the high standard OF American
living which is fixed by the speeches which
they have been floating through the open win
dows and doors of the Capitol so frequently
when the pauper labor of Europe is under dis
cusson. So they are agitating, and have been
agtating for some time, for steady work all
day long at the price fixed by the law of 1868

Americans in Alaska.

Reporting to the House, yesterday, sub
stitute for the Senate bill providing for the ac-
QUESTION of land for town-sites and commercial
purposes in Alaska, the House Committee on
Public Lands refers to the fact that during the
twenty-five years Alaska has been in the pos
session of the United States there has been,
with the exception of the extension of the min
ing laws, absolutely no legislation tending to
tion for the investment of their capital and
labor to the several thousand Americans there

There is plainly an undercurrent of unrest
active in European politics. The Pope, who

siderable increase in the army, that peace was

Fish Commissioner MCDONALD no doubt
knows great deal about pisciculture, but the
fact that he is now undergoing an Investigation
by Senate committee shows that his political
education has been sadly neglected. If Mr..
MCDONALD had taken few lessons in political

scientific and other bureaus of the Government
he might easily have avoided all this bother

Why should the American people be called
Oh TO pay $4,000 to perpetuate the fame of
WILLIAM HENRY HARRISON by erecting mon
ument on Tippecanoe battlefield: The Ameri-
can people have gone to some extent into the
business of perpetuating the fame of their more
or less great men in a less expensive but rather
more effective fashion. They elect the descend
ants Of the great men to Office as token of
regard for their fathers or grandfathers and as
sign OF their susceptibility to the potent charms
Of 4 fame-trumpeted name. This generation of
the American people should be called on to
erect no other monument to WILLIAM Henry
HARRISON than the one they placed in the
White House to him year ago last March.

Policemen are human, and as rule they
have their full complement of the weaknesses
which atiict humanity. Their daily duties are
not calculated to make them tender hearted
and gentle in manner The class of citizens
with whom they have chiefly TO do business re-
gard them as natural enemies, and when the
officer and a member Of this class engage in
transaction the mental attitude of each party
to it is not of kind calculated to bring out
the more lOyable traits of either. Liberal al
lowance must therefore be made for the po-
lceman if IN the hurry and scuifie and strug-
gle Of discharging his duty, or what he regards
as his duty, he fails at times to preserve that
repose of manner which stamps the caste of
We're de We're and generally falssbOrt of the
all-around polish and courtliness which dis
tinguished the late Lord CHESTERFIELD. In a
word, a common-sense view of the case should
be taken and the exigences of the policeman S
lot be borne steadily in mind. But
the policeman, like every other man,
should have special fitness for the
duties he is called on to perform Above
all, a policeman should have self-control, and
be endowed with fair degree Of physical
strength and athletic agility, SO that he will not
be inclined or obliged to resort to the use Of the
club or the pistol on the least show Of resist
ance by those whom he is attempting to arrest
man of hasty and violent temper is utterly
untitled for the duties of policeman. An Off
Ger who clubs his prisoners, except as an ex-
treme resort, TO save himself from serious in
jury, or to prevent their escape, should be dis
missed without delay, Whether the complaints
of colored citizens made public at mass
meeting a few nights ago, are we'll or i'll
founded The HERALD is unprepared to say.
They should receive respectful consideration
from the Commissioners, however, and should
at least serve as a reminder of the great i'm
portance of having intelligent men who know
how TO control their tempers on the police
force.

Tie Republican leaders in Congress are
plainly determined to pass Federal election
law and doubtless will be able to whip into
line those conservative members and Senators
who are opposed to legislation of this kind.
The scheme which was partially agreed upon at
the House caucus last week is of character
that will warrant the Democrats in going almost
any lengths to prevent its passage If it be-
comes a law nothing short of a revolution could
dislodge the Republicans from power

The original package excitement has broken
out with fresh violence in Pennsylvania, owing
to the instructions of Judge RAYBURN at Kit
tanning in the case of the agent of an Ohio
brewing firm, who was prosecuted for selling
beer in original packages, The Judge in his
instructions stuck close to the recent decision
of the Supreme Court and the jury acquitted
the prisoner. This gives the worst kind of
black eye to the Pennsylvania high license law.
