The weather bureau ar Washington is
making efforts 70 have the extent and ef-
hcieney OF its signal service Increased
along the gulf coast. The plan OF the bu-
reau is TO have vessels and railway trains
carry warning flags am give whistle sig
nails. and 10 utilize carrier pigeons for
messages. The explosion Of bombs and the
flight OF rockets will take the place Of
hags in the night time. T. is thought there
will be little If any difficulty about secur-

storm signals along the line suggested
would undoubtedly be the means OF saw

Michigan Needs the Death Penalty

y
A number of years ago the state of
Michigan abolished the death penalty. A
few days ago, as noted in our dispatches,
the Michigan Senate passed a bill to re-
store the gallows. There is little doubt
that the House will pass the bill also,
as it passed a similar one last year. which
was killed by the Senate. 1t has been
found that the life-sentence to prison is
not deterrent of murder. In 1891 ana
1892 there were 162 murders in Michigan,
and only per cent Of those who were
tried for the crime received the life-sen-
tence. AS compared with Canada, there
were in Michigan, in proportion to popu-
eighty-three murderers counted in Can
ada, in that time. sixty of them were
convicted and hanged, while in Michigan
there was no hanging and only a limited
number of the murderers were sentenced
to the penitentiary. Michigan, therefore,
obviously suffered from the abolition OF
the death penalty. The next reform that
is needed in Michigan is one that will
screw the juries up to the point of con-
victing felons. Juries there, and else
where are. too easy tempered, and the
courts and lawyers find too many loop
holes in the law through which a criminal
may crawl. 1t is to be hoped that the
Michigan lawmakers may find remedy
for the evil. and that the other states
Georgia included among them-will not
be slow to adopt the remedy when found.

Hugh McCulloch. whose death is an
nounced in our Geographic columns this
morning, was the first man up to the time
of President Harrisons administration
who had twice held the portfolio of the
treasury department, Secretary Window
being the second and only other one. Mr..
McCuloch was Maine man by birth, but
studied finance in Indiana, from which
state he was appointed TO the treasury
portfolio by President Lincoln. In the last
few years of his life Mr.. McCulloch en-
braced many of the doctrines of the
Democratic party. He was believer in
low tariff, and wrote a number of let
tiers in support of that view of the tariff
question. 1t is acknowledged that he pos
sessed sound and well balanced judgment
on all financial matters.

A Nebraska farmer has struck some
thing which he hopes will pan out heap
better than wheat farming, even with
wheat soaring toward 81 a bushel The
Nebraska statutes impose a penalty of
$500 for the failure of locomotive engines
TO whistle at crossings. Farmer Miller
has been sitting at a crossing ever since
May 1, 1894 keeping tab on the locomo-
tives that pass. In that time, and up to
the first of May of this year. he has found
that locomotives passed 1878 times with
out whistling. He has reported the facts
to the authorities, and is waiting for his
half of the penalty. He will probably
whistle for his money.

The MALTA Again at Work.

New ORLEANS, Jan. S0-Chef of Po-
lice CASTOR has received information from
D1naldsouvile which leaves no doubt j.
his mind that the letter sent TO Mr..
Monte'Ione, the wealthy Italian of It Is
city. demanding large sum of money
from him, under threat against his liie,
was written by members of the Malta or
some other dangerous criminal secret SO
ciety.
1t DOW seems that Mr.. Mon,eiione was
one of The wealthy Italians systematically
hIack mailed aud plundered bv the Msia
previous to 1890. when tbe Italian lynch
,ngs broke up for d time hat league of
murder Some of those who were en-
gagged IN black mailing him then, doubt-
less thought that they cou d renew their
operations, as the storm had blown over,
and never thou bit that Mr.. Montelione,
encouraged by years of reliet from their
exsctions, wou appeal TO the police tor
protection, Ss neither he LOT the olher
wealthy Italians dared do so of old.
Chief CASTOR received information yes

ners of the presence of the hunters.
Finding that they were not the agents of

meet, the Italian explained that be and
his friends were lost 10 the WOODS, and
disappeared in the underhrush. The
woods into which be disappeared are en-
tirelv uninhabitable. and Mr.. Bradford
could not understand the mysterious
questions and actions of the man ustil

FIGRTING TBE OREGONIAN.

Our Salem correspondent, in yester-
days issue, says the fight has been
against Dolph and the Orcgomioa', and
not In favor of free silver man. We
have been aware of the fact for many
years that the Oregoniaaa, although
ably edited and generally safe and
sound on public issues, has created
very many enemies in Oregon by Its
arbitrary and autocratic manner in
discussing questions of great interest;
but this should not influence any
mans judgment on national matters
: Members of the legislature we're not
elected to fight the Oregoniaas in Salem;
but to represent the best interests of
their constituents. 1t is very puerile
for any legislator to vote contrary to
his judgment because, BY SO doing, he
can vent his personal spleen against
any paper. The Oregoaian is not in
issue in the senatorial contest any more
than the Salem Statesman, the As
torian or twenty other papers that ad-
vocate sound currency. 1t is sim
ply a question before the members of
the legislature whether Oregon shall
be represented in the United States
senate by man whose views on the
financial question are sound and in
harmony with national prosperity and
commercial honesty, or by one who
follows the Populist idea and believe
that the stamp of the government only
ia necessary to create as much of the
circulating medium as may be desired
for revenue or business. Any man
who fights the Oregoniam on the floors
of the legislature ought not to have
been elected to the position, and should
have stayed at home until his mird
was sufficiently matured to understand |
the Importance of the position. The
people of Oregon do not want boys in |
the legislature, who will be actuated |
bv boyish spite and spleen when
matters of national importance are to
be decided.
