No reader Of the interesting sum.
mary Of the report of Labor Com.
missioner Wright concerning his in.
vestigations in the slums Of oul
large cities can fail to discern the
greatest and plainest lesson it re.
veals. After being told that the
earnings OF the slum residents are
quite up to the average earnings OF
the people in better portions of the
city, and that the health Of the pop
ulation Of these filthy, ill-smelling
districts averages quite as good as
that Of anv other portion, one is
quickly forced to the query, What,
then, makes a slum district? We
know that the slums are described
as portions or streets Of large cities
where poverty, squalor, crime and
unclean things abound; we have
long known that there are more sa-
looms in proportion to the popula-
tion in the slums than in other parts
of large oi les, but it has never be-
fore been so clearly demonstrated
that the lloon is directly respon.
sible for the poverty, filth and sui
fering in the slums, as this report
shows it to be. II the people earn
as much money as sober and re-
spectacle laborers, if thay have a.
little sickness and more help from
the community at large, there can
be but one reason for their deprav
ity and hclplessncss. Their earn.
ings all 90 to the saloon keeper ex-
cept the little that must be withheld
to sustain life.
Comfort, pride, home, life, chill
dren, all sacrificed to the whisky
saloon Juggcrnaut. In short, it is
the saloon that makes the slnms. -

The Southern Prison.

Two weeks ago Governor Matt
hews announced in the Sentinel
that he had decided upon man
for warden of the southern prison
in case the supreme court decided
the litigation in favor of the demo-
Gratis, but he has refused to state
who this is. Ii is now rumored
that the governor will appoint Ar
thony Stephenson, of Rockpor.
As soon as the case has been de-
cided Warden Patten will resign, as
he has long wanted to retire. The
dispute between the state and the
Patton manufacturing company has
not been settled, as the state refuses
to allow the company anything for
broken machinery. 1t demands
81 600 and is withholding $4,000
which is due the state. The state
will bring suit TO recover this
amount.-Ind. Sentinel.
j. b. Patten, the hoary- headed
warden Of the prison south, was
shaking hands at the state house,
Friday. He was asked concerning
the report that he intended resign
ing in'the immediate future. His
reply was:
"ies, ] have made up my mind
to give up the place by Jan. | next,

suit now being tested is decided

son is because | do not want the

Young man, young woman, can
YOU lin either of the old parties to-
day without putting your soul in
deadly hazard? Think over this.
John Dickinson, one Of the revolu-
tionary patriots, said in an address,
"Some States have lost their lib
cities by particular accidents, but
generally speaking, this calamity is
owing to the decay of virtue. A
people is travelling fast to destruc-
tion when individuals come to con
slider their interests as distinct from
those of the public. T" These words
state distinctly the basis upon
which our fathers hoped to perpet-
uate the blessings of free govern
ment upon this continent. The
basis thus distinctly stated is the
supremacy Of public virtue. and the
subordination of private to public
interest. This basis and these prin-
ciples, the young man entering pol
itics through either Of the old par
ties, finds deliberately and boldly
challenged by the leaders Of either
Of those parties. Openly corrupting
for the sake of spoils the body po-
lite and giving as an excuse that
the other party does it too" In
political as well as social life it holds
true that things which are accept
able to the heartless roue will be re-
voting an repugnant to the novice
pure and fresh from the fireside.
Let us press these facts home and
we will enlist the young people Of
his state as never before.

WOMAN CHARGED WITH MURDER
Alleged to Have Poisoned Miss Eliza.

Alleged to Have Poisoned Miss Eliza.
beth Knapp in Pcnnsylvania.
Wellsboro, Pa, Aug. 10.-The mystery
surrounding the death on the 18th of
Miss Elizabeth Knapp was partly clear
ed last night by the arrest of Miss
Charlotte Dutton, alias Howell, on
warrant charging her with murder.
Miss Knapp, who made her home in
the family of Chauncey 2. Howell, be-
came suddenly i'll May 16, and died
next day. The coroner's jury rendered
verdict that she died of corrosive
poison, administered by herself or
some unknown person. The detectives
secured enough evidence to warrant the
arrest Of Miss DuttOn, who had also
been living with the family of Howell.
1t is charged by the friends of Miss
Knapp that Miss Dutton was jealous of
her When the alleged criminal was
taken to jail she feigned insanity.
Shortly after Miss buttons appearance
at the Howell residence the latter's
wife died under peculiar circumstances.
Soon after young son died with symp-
toms of poisoning.

Father and Son Used Both With
Deadly Effect.
IS TALK OF LYNCHING THEM
EIlcnsburgh Saloonkccpcr Was Killed
and His Friend Terribly Stabbed
i'll the Struggle.

Ellensburg, Wash, Aug. 11.-Charles
Vincent, who gave away the train rob-
berry in the Northern Pacific hOld-up
last April, together with his father have
been drunk and raising disturbances
all day today. This evening about GAS
they entered the TeutCnia saloon and
picked a quarrel, during which Charles
shot Mike Kohlopp, one of the proprte-
tors. The ball entered the right breast.
The victim died half an hour later.
John Bergman, well known as Dutch
John" went to the defense of kOhlopp,
when the elder Vincent stabbed him in
the right breast, inhicting a horrible
wound. After KOhlopp was shot he
grappled young Vincent, threw him to
the floor and dealt him several blows,
but was forced to desist by failing
strength. Both men were Immediately
arrested and put in steel cage in
the county Jail. The extent of Dutch
Johns injuries is not yet known, but he
is badly injured. Excitement is running
very high, but the officials have taken
extra precautions about the Jail.
The Vincents are regarded here as ut
terly worthless, Charles having served
one term in the penitentiary and his
father is always drunk. Both are quar-
relsome, and have always gone armed
and ready to pick a fight. There Is
wide spread sentiment in favor of
lynching them, but the lawful element
is holding it down.

WANTED TO Kill HIS ATTORNEY
fremont Smith. Executed at San Quentin,
Had but One Regret.

San Quentin Prison, Cal, Aug. g.
Fremont Smith, the murderer of his
companions, two Colusa fishermen, was
hanged today. Smith said his only re-
gret was that he had not had a chance
to kill his attorney, by whom he main
tanned his interests had been neglected.
He maintained his innocence and said
that in allowing him to hang Governor
Budd was a murderer. Smith had be-
come so stout in confinement that the
rope cut into his neck, almost SeVering
the head from the body. A stream Of
blood poured from his throat during all
the time he was kept suspended by the
rope When the body was cut down it
was found to be horribly mutilated by
the rope. The evidence against Smith
was purely circumstantial. The bodies
of his fishermen companions were
found in a river with marks of violence
upon them. Smith was arrested some
distance away with a watch and some
firearms belonging to them.
