HE CREATED A DISTURBANCE
Jerry Quinian Arrested for Disturbing
Peace

Jerry Qulnlan Arrested for Disturbing the
Peace
Jerry Quinlan was arrested on the cor
ner of First and Spring streets yesterday
by Officer Mcguire and charged with dis
turbing the peace.
Jerry is fruit peddler and drives a
wagon around the city. Yesterday he
imbibed too large quantity of the wine
that is red and in a short time was in that
happy stale when ne did not care whether
he sold any Of his wares or gave them
away. Just when he was at the height OF
his sentiments he reached the corner.
where stood Mr.. Mcguire. Jerry did not
know that the latter was there. but il he
had, it is not likely tnat it would have
affected the condition of his feelings.
Jerry drove his wagon to the middle OF
the crossing and sat surveying the busy
scene before him. AS he interfered with
travel. Mr.. Mcguire requested the fruit
peddler to move On. This he refused to
do and seemed disposed to debate the
matter. The officer was not in an drgu-
mentative humor, however, so escorted
Jerry to the station. When taken INTO
court Jerry made it so very evident that
ne was drunk that Justice Owens ordered
him taken below and kept there until he
was sober.

Plans nade to Resist Closing Later Than I
O'Clock

Again the worm turns and now ]. Is
the National Protective association of the
recall clerks. or rather the local branch,
No. 50. In response to a circular letter
there was an open meeting of the order
Tuesday evening at which many who are
not yet members were present. Mr.. A.
M. Green presided and after calling the
meeting TO order, made brief reference to
the object, which was to take some action
against those merchants who do not
close their doors at p. m. There was
animated discussion and large number
spoke on the subject, which resulted in
the appointment of three committees to
take action in the matter.
One committee Of three will obtain
from the various offending merchants
thei- individual expression regarding
the movements; another committee Of
six will secure the names and addresses
of all retail clerks. male or female. in the
CITY, for the purpose of securing their
attendance at series of open meetings
to be held successive Tuesday evenings.
A press committee of two was appointed
to assist in placing the matter and prog
ress made before the public. Lady clerks
are eligible for members hip, and their
attendance at all meetings is especially
desired. Next Tuesday evening the next
meeting will be held, and all the retail
clerks in the city are requested to be
present.

Illegal

The opening of Ninth street and oi
Santee street, ordered by the conncil un-
der separate proceedings several weeks

in both instances, the result of the faulty
official advertising in the cases. The
official publications in both proceedings

CLEAN KITCHENS.

Cooks in New York city are agitatiug
for an amendment to the factory laws
providing for sanitary inspection of kitch-
ems in hotels, restaurants and boarding
houses
This is a most desirable and commend
able movement, and it will no doubt receive
the support of the general public Of New
York city aud State.
But it should 20 further. 1t should be
made a law Of general application to the
whole country, Washington included.
This is the age Of the cheap boarding
house and of the little restaurant where a
fulI-course meal can he had for the amount
that a cup of coffee and a roll would cost
a few years ago. While meats are high
cooked food is often so cheap as to arouse
suspicion.
But the cleanliness of the kitchens in
these places is the most important consider
alton, as the health Of a large number of
people depends on it. 1t should be guar
anteed beyond doubt

NO MORE INCOME TAX.

Commissioner of Internal Revenue Miller
has adopted the right policy in refusing to
return the income tax returns to those who
made them, and also in locking them up so
that no knowledge OF their contents can be
given to the public When Congress con-
venes he proposes to ask for permission to
destroy all the books, returns and papers
connected with the effort TO collect an in
come tax under the late law, and when this
is done the last yeStigc of a law which
promised so well at the hands of Congress
viii have passed into history.
1t is doubtful if ever an income tax can
again pass Congress except in the event
OF an emergency. a majority of the
public favor such a measure, but the iu-
flneuce of those upon whom the burden OF
such taxation falls would prevent it from
receiving favorable consideration. The
rapid increase or revenues natural.to better
times Will do away with the necessity OF
income taxation, and while it must be adj
nitted that if justly levied there could be
no valid objection to such Il tax, it is
perhaps best under the ciroums taDces
that it was defeated.
II is astonishing what a change prosperity
makes in public opinion. Six months ago
two-thiIds OF the people were crying calam-
ity, and agreeing with almost any propo-
sition to create new legislation to increase
ouI revenues. But now when the country
seems TO be on the verge Of good times
nearly everybody is willing TO let well
enough alone. And il is better that this
sentiment should prevail

THE MONEY FLEW.

In olden days the rich did not hoard their
money 1t was the correct thing to keep
a stable of from 80 TO 100 horses in order
that one might occasionally enjoy horse
back ride on the bois. To spend a million
francs on q cottage was Il common whim.
The Comte d'Artois, that he might give
the queen a fete, demolished, rebuilt,
and refurnished Bagatelle from top to
bottom, employing 900 men day and night
and as there was no time to go for lime and
stone he sent patrols out on the highway
to seize, pay for, and bring in all wagons
loaded with these materials.
The Marshal de Ric.Ieiieu once gave a
purse OF money to his grandson, who, re-
markable to say, did not know what to do
withitand broughtit back to tohisgrapdfather
who promptly threw it out OF the window
rather than be bothered with it.
The Marshal de Soubise entertained the
King one day and night at his home at a
cost OF $50 900.

OF a lady's canary painted for ring, she
stipulating that it must be set without

the prince had 1T ground to powder, which
he used to dry the ink OF the note he wrote

1T Is TINE To STOP.

No one is disposed TO unnecessarily
caused the death of Ernest Green, but the
fatal shooting brings up the question Of
the right of any person to inflict punish
ment except through the machinery of
law. Then again, by what authority can a
coroner's jury eXonerate a person who
admits having deliberately fired q shot
that takes a human life?
Until society rejects all pleas for mercy
that involve homicide, either accidental
or otherwise, except when made in es-
tablished courts of justice, the offense
OF using deadly weapons will continue to
convert happy homes into places of mourn
ing. Life is too precious and has too many
ties TO be valued cheaply, and whenever
or wherever it is destroyed by an attempt
to usurp the functions of the law, the ac-
quittal for that branch Of legal discipline
should. come alone from the authority
that was outraged.
1t is useless to make the death OF Ernest
Green point a moral TO the theft of little
fruit. To mature minds the tragedy will
have its effect, but to boys whose moral
Judgment under such circumstances often
depends on the state OF their appetites the
lamentable affair win have but temporary
mental resting place. 1t should, however,
serve as a serious warning against tbs use
OF deadly weapons except in actual defense
