The Death Machine Broke Down.

AUBURN, n. Y, July 2s.-William f.
Taylor, who cut the throat of fellow
convict, was executed by electricity in the
state prison here. He received shock of
1890 volts when the armature on the dy-
namo burned out and it was impossible to
complete the killing for an hour. During
that time the prisoner lay in state of un-
consciousness similar to apoplexy and was
given chloroform and an injection of NOR
phine to prevent his reviving, which he
certainly would have done. Meantime the
death chair vas connected with the city
electric light plant and the execution was
their completed.

Public sentiment in favor of restrict
ing immigration has been perceptibly
growing for the past ten years, and the
exclusion of the worst classes from
coming to this country is acknowledged
to be necessary for the maintainance of
our institutions and our citizenship.
But, thus far, there has been very little
practical legislation toward this end.
1t ID important that the facts regarding
the excessive quantity and the inferior
quality of our immigrants be known to
the people, and that our legislators
shall rise above mere partisanship, and
the fear of losing or the desire of gain
ing the votes Of the foreign born shall
give place to a patriotic spirit that
looks only to the welfare of the nation.
The last census shows that our pau
perism and crime bear. very close
relationship to immigration. A little
more than one-third of our entire
white population is of foreign birth or
parentage, while this same class fur
nish more than one-half the occupants
of our jails and penitentiaries, and
two-thirds of the occupants of our
almshouses. These are startling facts,
and when it is remembered that the so
peniten iaries and $1,000 jails besides
all the almshouses and reformatories Of
this country are maintained at such an
enormous expense, It is not surpris-
ing that the people are awaking to
sense of the pecuniary loss as well as
the moral and political danger to which
we are exposed by indiscriminate immi-
grafton. 1t is high time that the
sentiment of the people find expression
in legislation that shall meet the needs
of the times.

that we may well feel proud of. At no

A LARGE proportion of the working
mems wages 60 to support the saloon.
Now that the thousands are out Of
employment, the churches, charitable
organizations and individuals are doing
all they can to relieve their wants.
But what part are the saloons taking
in this work of charity? If the money
that the workingman has spent at the
bar had been expended in securing a
home, he would not now be SO utterly
dependent upon public charity. The
saloons have grown rich on bis prosper
ity and now in his adversely it behooyes
them to give of their bounty to relieve
the suffering poor whose present pitt
able condition is largely due to the
presence and prosperity of the saloons.

THE Dover Inder apparently is the
only paper in the State which attempts
in any way, to justify the appointment
Of two negroes to Office Senat II Gray.
After the severe attacks of negro1ho-
bia which the Inder has suffered in the
past, we had right to believe that ap-
pointments of this kind by United
States Senator of the White Mans
Party would almost lay it out stiff; but
with that wonderful elasticity and
ability to adjust itself to all kinds of
circumstances, which is in keeping
with the party, they attempt to explain,
and Oh, godsl to not only commend
but in fact compliment, and even go so
far as to say that the appointments
made by Senator Gray from the colored
race were as good as those made by
Senator Higgins. But who would
ever think that the rock-ribbed Democ-
racy of Delaware could ever stand
such appointments, much less the two
appointments at one gulp. Oh, shades
Of the Saulsburysl Oh, temporal Oh,

LIZETTE wOODwORTH REESE.
ssWhen Polly Takes the Air'' is the
attractive title of very pretty little
poem by Lizette Woodworth Reese
printed in the Century Magazine for
September, with four beautiful illustra-
tions by Otto FL. Bacher.
The TRANSCRIPT has more than o
passing interest in the author of these
verses, she having been frequent con-
tributor to its columns during Mr..
Ways editorial administration, and we
take great pleasure in noting her con-
tinued success as a writer.
Miss Reese is a native of Baltimore
and teacher in one of the public
schools of that city. She is very
attractive young lady of pleasing man
ners. quiet ways, sunny disposition and
literary and artistic tastes. One may
well imagine that, with her school
duties and literary work, she is very
busy person. but Wlthal, she hnds
time to keep herself in touch with the
newest books and best current litera-
ture.
Her poems have peculiar charm
which seems to bring one very close to
Nature in her happiest moods. They
have the freshness Of the dew of a
May morning and the odor of the lilac
in the farmhouse lane.
Miss Reese has also written several
very successful short stories. and en-
couraged by these earlier efforts, her
friends are expecting much Of her in
the field of fiction. "A collection Of
her poems was issued about year ago
by Lathrop, in very attractive and
unique volume, and had a sale that
was most encouraging TO the author.
The verses which inspired this hasty
notice Of this gifted young lady are
printed in another column of this issue

WASHINGTON LETTER.

WASHINGTON, September 5, 1S93,-
Ex-Speaker Reed has never displayed
his great ability as ready debater and
an able exponent of parliamentary law
and precedent than during the debate
on the new rules, now going on in the
House. The "kiekinn Democrats, of
whom there are quite q number, have
gladly followed his leadership, in expos
ing the weak points in the proposed
rules, which he has been merciless in
doing. The 'sring Democrats" as
several of the "kickers" have called
those who unquestionably follow
Speaker Crisp, have no man to pit
against the ex Speaker in debate, and
since the bitter experience of Speaker
5Crisp when he left the chair and at
tempted to combat Mr.. Reed, they no
longer try. contenting themselves with
out-yoting him and his followers, and
upon several occasions they have found
that very difficult TO do. The admins
tration is in no hurry for the House to
adopt its new rules; hence the adjourn

or In any manner affect the legal-ten-
der quality of the standard silver

and credit Of the United States are
hereby pledged to maintain the parity
of the standard of gold and silver coins
of the United States at the present legal
ratio, or such other ratio as may be
established by law.n
The Voorhees, bill is similar down 10
the words: s.but this repeal, etc." In
the Voorhees, bill, however, this is sub
stituted.
.And it is hereby declared to be the
policy Of the United States TO continue
the use Of both gold and silver as
standard money and to coin both gold
and silver into money of equal intrinsic
and exchangeable value, such equality
to be secured through international
agreement or by such safeguards of
legislation as will insure the mainten-
ance of the parity In value Of the
coins of the two metals and the equal
power of every dollar at all times in
the markets and in the payment OF
debts. And it is hereby further de-
clared that the efforts of the govern
ment should be steadily directed to the
establishment Of such safe system Of
bimetallism as will MAINTAIN at all
times the equal power of every dollar
recoined or issued by the United States
in the markets and in the payment of
debts.''
1t is hardly probable that the amend
ment will pass the Senate, and from
present indications the special session

before our Democratic friends have
things to their liking.
