This g. Hour Law.

The 6-hour law which was passed a
few days before the adjournment of con-
gress is, it seems, giving contractors who
have contracts for public buildings great
deal of trouble The law was passed hastily
both parties apparently being anxious to
gain the good will Of the labor vote. Some
of the provisions OF it have such doubtful
meaning that the Attorney General has been
asked for legal construction of them.
Many public buildings are being con-
struoted in different parts Of the country.
The contracts for their erection were made
before the S-hour law was enacted. It is
evident that 1t would be unfair to compel
the contractors to carry out their contracts
because labor will cost them considerably
more now than when the contracts were
made.
The MORNING News has already called
attention to the effect that the law will
have upon river and harbor work. 1t will
increase the cost of the work. The money
that has been appropriated for public work
under the new system of making appropria
tions for such works will not be sufficient
for the purpose.
When congress passed the S-hour law il
should have taken into account the fact
that the law would increase the cost Of all
kinds Of government work and made pro-
vision for such increase.

a Little Hard of Hearing.

A great deal OF merriment, says the London
Daily Telegraph, has just been excited in one
of the Paris law courts owing TO the very odd
answers given by defendant TO the questions
addressed TO rim by the Judge. The family Of
which he was member was the posses sor Of a
dog which had be bitten AS IL was believed
TO be affected with rabies, orders had been given
to destroy the animal. One of his kinstok who
was examined before he was called declared
that she had preferred to close the dog; so
one morning she repaired to the Halles, got
among a crowd and then made the best of her
way home, leaving the poor beast to look after
itself, When the judge enimadverted on her con-
duct in thus turning dog which was raputed
70 be mad" loose on society. she quietly replied:
1t had only been bitten" IL was now the turn
of the male representative of the family. The
judge began by nquiring why he had not killed
the dog: Il beg your pardon, Mon President
she can't come on account of her health! - was
the answer which he received. What, the
dogl' asked the judge, much puzzled. Yes;
and here is the Doctors certificate"
Explosions OF laughter broke out in court
which increased when the defendant produced
a pocket book and took therefrOm a piece of
paper. which was handed to the Judge, who ex-
claimed: What do you want me TO do with
thls?" No reply was forthcoming "Are you
deaff" No" Then reply" ''It is q sore
throat" There was a renewed exhibition Of
merriment, which by no means diminished when
the judge, AFTER reading the document said:
Why, you have passed me a certificate stating
that your wife, and was Interrupted by the
defendant with the cry: she was not mad"
that your wife is suffering from sore throat"
continued the judge gravely. Then you can
understand that this was not reason for kill
ing her" replied the prisoner AT length, in
despair, the Judge got an usher to explain the
matter to the defendant who after admitting
that he was a little hard of hearing" quietly
remarked: "Ah my dog, is it, Well l didn't
kill it, vOiId fOut Finally it transpired that the
animal had been sold, and each of the defend
anus was sentenced to the payment Of fine Of

The State Campaign,

The ticket nominated by the democratic
! convention at Atlanta yesterday is an ex-
| cellent one. No democrat who has in view
| only the welfare of the people and his party
] can or will find fault with any one OF the
nominees. Gov. Northen deserved the re-
nomination he received. His admins ira
ton has been an admirable one. He has
watched faithfully and conscientiously
every public interest, and he has discharged
every public duty with an eye single to the
public welfare. He has done nothing for
effect. Nothing approaching demaRogy has
appeared in any of his acts. He has acted
AS il he felt to the fullest extent
the great responsibility which rests
upon him, and he has aimed to the best
Of his ability to better the condition Of the
people. Honest in thought, as well as in
deed; frank in his intercourse with all who
come In contact with him, putting aside
self In his anxiety to promote the public
good, and bringing to his work c clear mind
and ripe judgment be has administered
his great office with such success that he
has the respect and confidence OF all classes
of people Even those who differ with HIN
politically have no fault TO find with him.
The ticket is a strong one and will COM
mand the full support of the party in every
county in the state. 1t is a ticket to arouse
enthusiasm, and that it will be enthusiastic
ally received there is no reason to doubt
The state campaign is now fully begun.
1t will be lively and interesting one. The
democrats are going TO do more hard work
than they have done in any previous cam
paign In years. They will make supreme
effort to call back those democrats who
have been led by speciouE promises that
cannot be fulfilled to join the third party,
and they will see to it that every democrat
goes TO the polls.
The campaign will be ably conducted by
Mr.. Atkinson, who has been retained at
the head Of the state committee. He has
proved his fitness for the important trust
that has been confided 10 him. He will In
fuse his own energy and enthusiasm into
the campaign. Under his direction moth
ing that will contribute TO victory will be
left undone. The young men will be formed
into clubs and will be charged with the
duty Of making converts and the old men
will be aroused In behalf OF the grand old
Democratic party as they have not been In
a quarter Of a century.
The campaign will be stirring one all
along the line The demonstrations that
will be made In behalf Of the Democratic
party and its principles will convince the
third party that it moderated the love of
the people for the party which hos served
the south 50 long and 80 faithfully when it
undertook TO deceive them with the falla-
oies of the Omaha platform. The Peeks
and Posts aud WatsoDs will be buried 30
deep beneath democratic ballots that there
will be no resurrection for them.

A Foolish Old Hen,

Once there was cross, fussy, squawking Old
Hen, says the Chicago Tribune.
She took Contract to hatch some Eggs.
She sat on the Eggs for two Weeks, and then
becoming Dissatisfied she left her Nest and
Walked Out.
Then some of the other hens said: What is
the Matter with your Why don't you 20 ahead
with your Hatching?"
And the Old Hen said 81 have been sitting
on those Eggs two whole Weeks and l haven't
got Chicken yet. There is no Sense In my
Spending another Week on that Nest just be-
cause it is Custom. l am going to quit"
And they said: Then some other Hen that is
ready to set must take those Eggs and hatch
them out "
IF any other Hen tries to hatch out those
Eggs" replied the Old Hen, furouslY, ~ will
pick her Eyes outl The Eggs are Nine"
Have you not left your nest?'
"Of course have"
Are you going back to it?''
Not unless | can have the Assurance that the
Eggs will hatch right away"
Then why can't some Hen that is out OF
job go and take the NeSt?'
because It would be Infamous TO step in and
deprive me OF the Benefit OF my two weeks
Work. Let any Hen try 1t II she Daresi"
And several Hens that had Just taken Con-
tracts to Hatch Out Eggs in other Nests got up
and Walked out because they sympath!zs ed
with the Dissatisfied Old Hen

A Hot Day.


From the SomerUiiie Journal.
At dawn the air is soft and still,
Without cooling breath;
The foliage, even on the hill,
Is moUionless as death.
The sun comes up, a glowing ball,
Through a thick screen of mist;
Already its fierce rays sppal.
Red as an amethyst.
A dull white haze o'erspreads the sky
And dims the faded blue;
A single wavering cloud on high
Reflects the suns fierce hue.
The day wears on, still more intense
The heat grows with the hours:
The mist burns up. till every sense
Betrays its tagging powers.
At noon the sun beats tiercely down;
The pavements, white with heat,
Have made a furnace OF the town,
And burn the passer's feet
So through the afternoon the sun
1t fateful power displays,
Till piled-up clouds mount one by one
And jagged lightning plays
Along their crests and thunders roll
Before the tempest breaks;
The rain beats down and woman's soul
immortal terror quakes.
But soon the freshening rain is done,
The clouds arc swept away,
And twinkling stars start one by one
To deck the dying day.
Then each man sits before his door
And says unto his wife:
81 never felt the heat before
SO much in all my life!"
