An ENGLISH COMMENTARY.

Said an eminent English scientist recently:
" The danger that confronts the great Ameri-
can people to-day Is not the possible adop-
ton of a wrong financial policy for the
nation, or the spread of socialism, or the
increase Of corruption among public men.
All these are bad enough. to be sure, but
they are as nothing compared to the terrible

wealth is set at killing pace, and thousands

PLENTY OF

The decision Of GOVERNOR FLOWER in
refusing to grant executive clemency to
CARLISLE W. HARRIS, shows that the
executive Of New York possesses, in an
admirable degree, the moral stamina so
often wanting in other governors.
1t is hard for a governor or for any
man to resist the crying appeals of a dis
tressed, crushed and heart broken mother,
asking that her son be not e]lectrOcuted
and begging for what seems the appar.
emily little mercy of sending him to prison
for his natural lifetime. 1t seems, in
deed, that there would be but little solace
or comfort for her TO know that her boy
must forever remain in a felon's cell, and
yet she begged and plead for that, to her,
sweet boon.
The governor, knowing and dreading
the responsibility, appointed a compe-
tent commissioner to take new testimony,
and himself gave much time and thought
to the case. Yet after all that the de-
Tense claimed had been granted be failed
to see why the jury, which had said that
young HARRIS poisoned HELEN PORTS,
had not rendered a true and just verdict.
The truth was, and FLOWER was big
enough to see it, that HARRIS was a com
mon villian-that he poisoned his wife
in cold blood, and the law was plain. \
jury Of HARRIS peers said under oath
that he was guilty, and now he will e
electrOCuted.
1t is refreshing in these times when
men in public places listen to the pleas
Of "~intluenCe,' who allow the tears of dis.
tracted ones to sway them from their
duty, to see a governor stand firm upon
thc law and say that it shall be enforced
HARRIS was no better than any muir
derer, although he had position and some
money. He should be electrocuted, if
that is the law, and too much praise
cannot be given the governor who had
the back bone to say so, ana say it out
loud.

THE PANIC.

1t seems that there is a sure enough
panic Oh in New York to day, and of
course it is hard to tell where it will go
before the end is reached. The last real
panic in 1872 swept over the entire
country and banks were closed in thou
sands of towns.
1t is understood that the panic on now
will not be general, but will be confined
to New York and a few big dealers who
have Overreached themselves.
1t is safe to say that Durham will feel
no effects of the tight money market
except in a general way. SO keep on
whistling and talk for a rock crusher.

Chinese Women and Their Feet.

The small footed Chinese women usual
ly make their w shoes of bits of silk
embroidered in gold and %colors. Very
dainty work they make of it, too, a shoe
maker simply selling these bits of en-
broidery. In curio shops the globe trot-
ter may sometimes pick upa secondhand
shoe. The tiny feet must be often and
carefully washed and disinfected. Many
of them are perpetually swollen and in
famed. There are women whose bust
ness it is to go from house to house
bathing, b~andaging and treating these
MANNED members. A woman of rank
has sometimes one amah whose special
duty 1t Is to are for her tiny but trou-
blesOme feet.
Chinese women who possess small feet
are, while proud of them in a way, very
shy and unwilling to exhibit them to
foreigners. l had great difficulty in
coaxing a Chinese Oma of rank to
give me a glimpse of her wee foot. The
four smaller toes are pressed under the
sole, and the whole weight falls really
upon the great toe in walking. The
ankle is very large and distorted. but
the leg IS thin and wasted from mad
equate exercise. The tout ensemble
from a western point of view is far from
beautiful if not absolutely repulsive.-

TIE PENSION FRAUDS.

shameless pension fraud 1t says There
are great expectations of saving millions
to the treasury by the revised admins

about 10 begin. There is nothing to
prevent. With a new head of the hu-
reau, with new men for examiners. new
methods and intentions. and no ore to
lnterpose obstacles, II cannot be doubted
that millions may be saved. No one
questions that thousands of persons are
drawing pensions whom the lawmakers
never Intended should draw them. The
Idea OF "consequen,ial damages" has
been made TO aid the pension agents,
especially here. This has been the cover
Tor stupendous schemes of getting money
out OF the treasury. Tens Of thousands
OF persons are on the roll as pensioners
who, had they not been stimulated 10
apply and then been taught TO swear TO
machi statements, would never have
thought OF applying at all. \ single
case very recently put upon record will

THE PROPER CAPER.

Mr.. JAMES MANNING this morning
said that it was his opinion that Durham
could not make a better investment at
this time, than to buy a rock crusher and
improve the streets. He claimed that
more money was spent each year in fill
ing up holes on TIE streets of Durham,
than two rock crushers would cost. The
rock crusher would give US solid and
permanent streets the labor thrown
away each year on the roads would be
saved, and in a short time we would
have streets equal to any place in North
Carolina. SQUIRE Angler thought his
position right, and CLERK GREEN said
that lie strongly supported the PROPOSE
ton.
The GLOBE then took occasion to
interview about a half hundred tax
payers and they all heartily agreed that
it was the proper caper.
These straws are thrown out for a
pointer to the new council, which was
elected largely on the cry Of progression.
The plea that we have no money to spend
now, is met by Mr.. MANNING's state
ment, which cannot be denied, that more
than enough money is absolutely squan-
dered for temporary repairs than would
De expended for a crPsher.
The streets are in a d plorable condi
ton, and this spring is the time to act.
Will our city fathers catch the idea in
the right place and proceed?

1t is not as easy to get a position in
the railway mail service now as it was
when Cleveland was first president.
These places are now under the opera
ton of the civil service law, and eXami
nations are required, and before they can
be secured the applicants must success
fully pass the examinations. When the
examinations are satisfactorily passed,
the names of the persons are placed On
the eligible list, and certificates are made
along the lines Of railway in which the
people live. Congressman can no longer
obtain positions for their constituents.
There was no such restriction under the
former Cleveland administration, but
just before Mr.. Cleveland quit the exec.
utive mansion, in 1888, be extended the
operations of the law so as to include the
railway mail service. Mr.. Harrison sus
pended its operation for about two
mOnths-lOng enough to keep out the
democrats-but Mr.. Cleveland is much
in love with the beauties of the system
and be is living up to the non.partisan
idea. and men of all shades of politics
and with no politics at all are safe in
their positions.
