doning power do what the Jury could not
do, under the law. and reduce the penalty
until 1t Is adequate to the offense. AS a
rule when The alternative is presented to
jury OF convicting and hanging a man for
murder or acquitting him, the case not
being such as to admit of verdict of
manslauShter, any doubt is solved in favor
or the accused, and an acquittal possibly
injurious to the onmunity follows. But
the doubt may be solved wrongfully
against the prisoner. and man hanged
who merits some punishment beyond that
Tor manslaughter, but does not deserve the
death penalty. Evil results are threatened
IN either case. and beyond all question the
jury should be permitted to make nicer,
more accurate and more equitable adjust
ment of the punishment to the offense
than the existing law permits"
President Cleveland having based the
communication of Taylor's sentence on this
proposition. there is not likely to be any
difficulty in securing his cooperation in
an effort to secure such statutory amend
ment as may be needed to accomplish the
desirable reform. The matter is one of
considerable Importance and, although Con-
gress will not be in session for several
months yet, 1t is not too early to plan a
campaign which shall result in the much
needed legislation.

President Cleveland struck the nail on the
head when in his Endorsement on the APP
plication of Thomas j. Taylor for commu-
tation of sentence he wrote: This case
presents another illustration of the advis-
ability of a classification of murder into de-
grees in the District of Columbia, as has
been done with good results in some of the
states" The Star has struck that same
nail directly and heavily more than once
1t did most recently in editorially dis
cussing the popular effort for the commuta-
ton which came yesterday. The Star then
said:
THE need of a change in the criminal
law of the District which VIII recognize
different degrees of murder with CORE
spondingly varying punishments, is EN-
phas!zed by the popular movement for the
commutation of sentence in the Taylor
case In this case the ne.ghbors of the
convicted man, who would be best ac-
quainted with any extenuating circum-
stances in the tragedy contend most
earnestly that the killing is not one which
deserves to be punished by the infiction of
the death penalty, and thousands of sigma
lures have been attached to a petition that

The naw woman will please take note of
the fact that a Boston millionaire has
married his cook. The millionaire in ques-
ton Is three-score years of age and a resi-
dent of that select portion of Boston
known as the Back Bay; the bride is re-
cent importation from the Emerald Isle
and has experienced just about half as
many summers and winters as has the
groom. OF course Boston society Is very
much shocked over the event, but the hap
pening will not be profitless to the coun-
try at large IL 1t convinces the new woman
that the man who wants a wife is often
an extremelypractical sort of being who
inclines to the belief that a woman who
possesses health and beauty, as the lucky
cook REFER ed to seems to be blessed with
and who has well-developed talent as
feeder of hungry mortality should have
marital preference. The world will reck
little of boomers and will even welcome
the new woman into politics IL she will
only keep in close touch with the needs of
the household and especially of the house

Fire early this morning wrought total
destruction of the Young Mems Christian
Association building on New York avenue,
therefore one of the most active institu-
tons for good in the national capital is
Tor brief season in a state of paralysis.
Between the Young Mems Christian Asso-
citation and paralysis there is not, however
any affinity, 1t is as certain as any
thing mundane can be that within a few
hours. or days at most, the Washington
branch of great religious and educa-
tonal organization will be working with
more of vigor than has even here been
displayed in times past. For awhile the
associations offices and class rooms and
other necessary appurtenances will be in
temporary quarters. but the logical Sc
quence of the confiagration of today Is a
new building in which ample provision will
be made for carrying successfully the
great work of the Young Mems Christian
Association For some time past there has
been planning and praying and subscrib-
ing to the end that a more suitable struc-
ture might be secured soon as possible;
the burning of the old building hastens
the contemplated improvement. That the
improvement may be sufficiently compre-
hensive it is essential that friends of the
association should come forward as speed
lily as possible with cash contributions large
enough in the aggregate to give the asso-
citation such a building as it ought to have
in what is in many respects the most i'm
portant community in the United States.
In general way there Is some sort of un-
Outstanding to the character of the
work which has been and is being done by
the association, but only comparatively
few have anything like a commensurate
idea of the great good that has been ac-
complished among the youth of the city by
the pers,stently-active officers and men,
bers of the local branch. Operated with
undenominational breadth, the association
has become a semi-public affair. Thousands
of young men have been encouraged to-
ward noble manhood by this one subdivis-
ion of the association. Nor has the asso-
citation neglected the physical welfare of
those who Joined themselves unto it;
fact freely testified to by the records of
amateur athletics hereabouts. A body
more practically influential for good than
is the Young Mems Christian Association
does not exist 1t deserves enthusiastic
encoura cement, and this is the time to do
the encouraging.

Ono of those tenders which the street-car
companies have always insisted were en-
tirely unnecessary saved a life yesterday
evening. In accordance with it's generally
law-defyipg methods, the lexington and
Soldiers Home Railroad Company has been
running its trolley cars on New York
avenue at rates of speed far in excess of
the limit stated by law. Unavailing COM
plants have been made of this practice.
Last night west-bound car ran down a
little boy who was crossing the street in
TIE direction of home. Testimony as to
the speed of the car is to the effect that 1t
was running fourteen or fifteen miles an
hour, at least. The little one was picked
up by the fender and was carried safely
over the considerable distance traversed
by the car before that combination of
vehicle and protectle could be stopped.
But for the ferder the child would surely
have been killed.
The occurrence directs attention to the
value of Tenders on mechanically propelled
street cars, but, more than that it empha-
sizes the necessity for police vigilance as
to car-speed on New York avenue. To say
that the policemen on duty in the vicinity
Of that thoroughfare do not know that the
law has BEEN violated by almost every mo-
torman many times each day would be to
charge ignorance such as no one who
knows the police force thinks that body
capable Of. Until recently the police force
in New York city was run mainly for the
benefit of these persons no had what was
termed political pull 1t surely cannot
be that any sort of pull would amount
to anything with this city's guardians Of
the peace.

There does not seem to be any good
reason why the District Commissioners, in
making contracts for the construction of
District buildings, should not insert in the
contracts a provision which will make 1t
certain that the contractor will pay to
those whom he employs upon the job the
maximum rate of wages prevailing in this
city at the time the contract is made. The
proposition that this be done comes from
the Federation of Labor, and in view of
the fact that there has been more or less
of inferior work done on school buildings
In recent years there may properly be
much public interest in the amendment
behind which are strong forces. Washing
ton does not want any inferior buildings,
whether private or public.
With the private structures, so long as
they conform to regulations, the District
authorities have practically little to do: as
to public buildings they have all the say.
Keen competition has more than once re-
suited in failure on the part of the District
to secure anything like it's moneys worth;
proof that mere cheapness is not always
true onomy. Material of a certain quail
ity can be had by all contractors who can
pay for it for about one price; it should
be so also with labor. Sound material and
the best labor being stipulated in the agree
ment, the successful bidder will be the con-
tractor who is going to be satisfied with the
smallest amount of profit.

McEnery Afraid.

The opposition to Governor
Fosters reelection had about
ceutered on Justice s. d. McEnery
to take the lead of the opposing
faction, but when old Mac saw the
strong show made by Foster in the
Central Committee meeting, it
demora lized Mac, and though he
had left the leaders to understand
he would make the fight, he got
scared and crawfshed. He is
afriad.
If the opposition is serious and
want to put a candidate against
Foster, the State is full of men
who will certainly be better than
him. The only draw back seems
to be that dreadful machine, but
as Capt Adams says he handles
part of that mschine, there should
be no fear there.
The time is coming fast, if you
intepd to put out q candidate
against Foster you had better hur.
ry up with him.
