UNJUST LEGAL DISCRIMINATION.

In many localities where a man kills a
faithess wife or her lover, he is either
acquitted and cong ratulated, OF if con-
yicted is sentenced 10 a short inlprison-

his honor is generally deemed sufficient
punishment and his murderous deed is

TEN MINUTES FOR LUNCH.

A number of interesting interviews with
physicians on the effect OF the fasting i'm
posed by the cable line on its conductors
and gripmen are published in our news
columns this morning. These employees are
required TO work ten and a half hours
each day in the week instead OF nine as
heretofore stated, and during that time
no opportunity is given them TO eat except
such as they can find during the two or
three minutes OF spare time at the term
inals.
The subject is one in which the general
public is interested. 1t affects the wei
fare of number of employees on our most
important street railway, and every fair
minded person desires to see them humaneIy
treated The cable line is prosperous and
can afford TO change its schedule so as to
give each griptram crew sufficient time
for a lunch, and as tie employees are not
in a position TO make the demand for this
concession the public should do ii for them.
