THE $500 CONTEST.

The coupon contest for the $500 prize
offered by the News closed last night at
1890 o'clock with Rhode Island Bethany
Home so far ahead that none of the
other competitors will have any ground
to hope that the final recount will
show change enough 10 affect the re-
suit in the least. And all the competi-
tors will be satisfied that though they
failed to win the prize it goes to the
furtherance of cause that every citi-
zen is interested in and that benefits all
equally.
There has never been q contest of this
nature in this city that has aroused
such popular interest among all classes
of the people. 1t was In every sense of
the word popular contest. Nearly all
of the coupons sent in were collected
for the societies they were voted for by
the members by cutting from the daily
copy of the News that was regularly
received and read by the family. Some
of the contesting societies were thor
oughly organized for the collection of
coupons, had committees appointed for
the work, and pursued careful business
methods.
But the condition of the coupons sent
in for the Bethany Home attests the
fact that its success is due to the united
and persistent efforts of all of its mem
bers, and very large circle
of warm friends of the cause
that it represents. Such earnest
and persistent work as the friends of
the Bethany Home devoted to the effort
to get this prize for their humanitarian
enterprise deserves success, and is pretty
sure to win it in whatever legitimate
enterprise that is undertaken.
The News congratulates the Bethany
home, and lis conscious that the $500
will be applied to the furtherance of an
object that is beneficial to the city as a
whole and to nearly every person in it.

"CALAMITY HowLERs.v

Nothing in the exceptionally bright
and strong speech of the Hon. j. l..
Barbour, at the Young Republican club
supper last night, was better than his
acute Characterization of that develop
ment of modern Democracy that
has become known as the calamity
howler," on account of his dis
position to see disaster in every move
and proposition of the Republican
party. This peculiar breed of individ-
ual is contemned by all healthy poll
ticians, of whatsoever party they may
be, as they are prophets of evil.
Speaking of what the Republican
party always found arrayed against it.,
Mr.. Barbour said of the calamity
howler:"
Those desmal beings who thrive only in the
shadow, and like the decaying mackerel, sparkle
only in the starlight
The moping owl is their emblem, not the soaring
eagle.
The cut worm is to them harblnger Of joy
The strident voice Of the droning locust ls
sweeter than the songs of the seraphim,
Tidings OF short crop wreathe their races IN eA-
ultant smiles.
An untimely and killing frost warns the cookies
OF their unpatriotic hearts.
This will be recognized as a not over
drawn picture of the being who has sue
ceeded, during the past few campaigns,
in making life a burden to himself and
in dampening thea rder of great many
people whose blood flows through their
veins warm and full of good will for all
mankind.
Mr.. Barbour's description of the
calamity bowler" is bit of political
classics that ought to find place pre-
pared for it, and ought to live until its
subject fades out of politics.

IN THE SWIM.

The only argument thus far advanced
by the Democrats for the election of
their candidates to congress from this
state is that it is we'll to be in the swim
and to elect men who will work in har-
mony with the majority.
The value of such an argument de-
pends upon what the majority is with
whom our representatives are to swim.
The majority, as now constituted at
Washington, is a majority dominated
by the free trade influence Of the South,
and by the free money principles
Of the West. The appointment
of the senatorial committees has
settled beyond doubt that the presi-
dent and his alleged views Of sound
tariff reform and money will have no
weight with the incoming congress.
As both Of our present congressman
have taken stand with Mr.. Cleveland
on these issues, of how much value will
their counsel be with an arrogant ma
jority? There will be no course
left open to them but to "swim" with
the tide, and the question for the voters
to decide is whether it is worth while
for Rhode Island to reverse her honora-
BILE record in favor of sound legislation
in order to be in the swim.
The influence of vigorous opposi-
ton actuated by true principles is of far
greater effect in legislation than the
blind following of the majority. If the
state shall elect Bull and Capron we
shall be represented by two men
of long legislative experience; by
men who understand the states needs,
and who will fearlessly resort to all
known obstructive methods to prevent
the states industries from being crippled
by ruinously low tariff or by false
currency. The Democratic majority
was greatly reduced at the last election,
and Rhode Island will do far better to
still further reduce that majority by
electing Republicans than by sending
to Washington men who will only be
compelled to submit to the lash Of the
party whip.

sENTIMENrALIrY VS.. JUSTICE.

Every little while there comes before
the public attention crime, which by
originality of execution, the high stand
ing of the criminal. or some other more
or less interesting extraneous circum-
stance, gives rise to condition of pub
lie sentiment which has, to say the least,
a considerable effect upon the conduct
of the case and the ultimate disposition
of the accused.
Such cases have been more frequent
in New York state than elsewh here
throughout the Union. The latest, the
Carlyle w. Harris case, is the most con-
spicuous example of this genus. The
efforts to save the young physician have
far surpassed in vigor and method any
previous exertions with a similar OBJ
ject. Public interest has been excited
as by but few other trials in the history
of criminal jurisprudence in this coun-
try.
Every available legal point has been
zealously, as was their duty lin his behalf.
The whole gamut of legal quip and
quirk has been run until the end was
apparently reached. The last petition
for new trial possible under the law
had been without success. The only
hope was pardon or Communication of
death sentence by the governor.
Then arose movement which raises
the Carlyle Harris case above the level
OF other causes celebre. 1t was heralded
abroad that a mass meeting would be
held to protest against the verdict of
Recorder Smyth and incidentally, il
may be believed, to endeavor TO infiu-
ence Governor Flower. But sober sec
ond thought and the opinion of the less
hot headed soon showed the folly of this.
The latest move is to amend the Grim
inal laws so that in capital cases after
the present procedure has been gone
through with and the trial justice has
refused the new trial asked for on the
ground of newly-discovered evidence,
an appeal may be taken to tie supreme
court. The advocates Of this bill,
whose author is one of Harris's counsel,
claim that under the present law the
power Of life and death is virtually
vested in one man, the trial justice.
Messrs. Howe and Hummell are not to
be criticized unfavorably for their efforts
in behalf Of their client. II is their
duty. The legislators of New York also
have a duty TO perform.
The criminal laws of New York may
or may not be such rs they should be.
BE that as it may, they have been
deemed just and sufficient for many
years, in 80 far as they relate TO
the methods Of trial for murder.
Should they be altered now IL would be
a confession Of weakness as well as a
practical avowal that the pressure of
legal acuteness and sentimental sym.
patby could not be- withstood. To
change the laws to benefit special cases

stage. But the fare was high, and Mr..
Brice could not afford to pay it. He gener-
ally walked the distance, therefore, al

with seat in a stage. The result was,
sometimes, that these friends would accom-
pany him on his tramps.
