SUSPENSION OF EMPLOYEES.

I believe it would be for the good of the
service for congress to enact law allow
ing postmasters, in their discretion, by
and with the consent of the postmaster
general, to suspend clerks, carriers, and
other employees of postofices, not exceed
ing ten days, without pay, for violations
of rules and regulations. Under the pres
emit law, first offenae, or one susceptible
of explanation, means dismissal from the
service.

[From Our Washington Correspondent
WASHINGTON, Nov. 2S-The main topics
here during the past week have been the
Hawaiian puzzle, the situation at Rio, talk
on the new tariff bill and Jack the Slash
er. Of the three former troubles you have
been fully informed, but as to the doings
of Jack the Slasher, who has 80 thoroughly
terrorized the residents of Washington for
the last few weeks, will say few words.
The vandals who were happily caught
turned out to be William Goodwin and
one Mann, both discharged soldiers of the
regular army, commenced their slashing
mania something over month ago. From
that time until the arrests residents of the
entire city had been staying home even
ings and sitting up nights. None were
spared, from the lowly residence
of the city policemen to the lord
ly mansion of the diplomat. The
slasher, or slashers, would enter the house
by forcing window, and procesd to cut
up the carpets, pictures, clothes and other
articles, and the damage caused by them
amounted to thousands of dollars. They
never stole anything, but seemed only to
have mania for destroying things. Both
Goodwin and Mann were discharged from
the army some fourteen months ago TO,
slashing several sets of harness, and since
that time have lived in this city, and neve,
has there been more terrorism felt here
since the days of the ''ghost robber," who

literary employment, since the writer

A DEMOCRATIC PRINCESS.

Now comes Col. j. G. Murphy, he of
Indian corn fame, and says the Princess
Eulalia has acquired, since her arrival
in America. strong taste for corn
bread. ParticulariZing. Colonel MUIR
ply says that while the Princess was in
Washington he noticed that corn bread
was not mentioned on the bill of fare at
the hotel where she was entertained,
and called the proprietor's attention to
it. The latter said it was not necessary,
as the Princess insisted on having it at
every meal. She fell in love with it, If
become devoted to it. Colonel Murphy
was highly pleased with this discovery,
and is indulging the hope that her High
ness's fondnees for corn bread may
make it fashionable in Spain, and thus
open a new market for the great Amer
lean cereal. On such seemingly small
hinges DO great events sometimes turn.
The Princess's fondness for corn bread
suggests an inquiry whether she is not
at heart bit of democrat. Corn bread
is distinctly an American product. and.
all things considered, the most demo-
cratic bread we have. From the corn
pone Of the Southern plantation negro
and the fap-jack of the country cook to
the delicate cornmeal mullins that emit
their savory odor on the breakfast
table of the rich man il is universally
popular. Therefore, when the Princess
declares her fondness for corn bread
she at once places herself in full sly M
pathy with the American people.
Other little incidents in connection
with the Princess's visit suggest that
there lis. away down in her Spanish ma
ture, an undeveloped vein or democ-
racy. She has regarded with undis-
guised interest the great but respectful
crowds that have pressed around her at
some places. More than once she has
turned aside to kiss little child that
caught her attention. In Chicago she
like to ride on the box of tally-ho
coach. At first she said she would be
delighted to do so, then she added: "But
/ fear cannot; it would not do. If the
Queen of Spain should see me on the
box of your coach she would say: There
goes that crazy madcap Eulalia, dis
grazing herself again. And then what
a pother there would be about pro-
priety. am SO sorry / must declineTp
Putting all these things together We
conclude that the Princess is at heart a
bit of democrat. Who knows but
that her visit to the United States and
the love for corn bread which she will
carry back with her may some time at
feet the politics of Spainq

THE CONVICTION OF TWO MURDERERs.

Those who have followed the testi-
mony in the case of the two colored men
who were convicted yesterday of the
murder of Mr.. Eyster will sustain the
jury which found them guilty. The
strongest point in their favor has been
the feeling that it was impossible for
them to have killed Mr.. Eyster upon so
slight pretext as that of permitting
patrolman to use his telephone to sum-
mon q patrol wagon to take them to the
station. But the testimony, though
largely circumstantial, swept away any
doubt which might have been enter
tanned on the ground of no provocation.
The testimony went to show that there
is class in the community
who not only have no re-
spect for the sanctity of human life,
but no fear of punishment for the COM
mission of such crime. 1t is time that
an example should be made of muir
derers by giving them the full penalty
of the law. That portion of the CON-
munity which has witnessed with un-
easiness the alarming increase Of MUIR
der, due to inadequate punishment, will
thank the jury which has sent these two
men to the gallOws for their courage in
the discharge of a most disagreeable
duty. The action of the jury in this
county should lead those in other coun-
ties where red-handed murderers are
awaiting trial to do their duty without
fear. The fact that life-takins is the
highest crime and deserves the most pos
tive punishment that the laws provide
needs to be emphasized in Indiana. If
the conviction of these two murderers is
followed by prompt execution, and SINH
lar crimes are similarly treated. there
will be less life taking. less shooting and
less white Gaping. Again, the Journal,
speaking for the believers in law and
the security of human life. thanks the
jury for it's resolute discharge of duty.
1t will make life safer in Indianapolis.
