An attempt to enforce some Of the laws
passed by the general assembly at lts
last session brings them before the
people, then they become a matter
of approval or criticism. The halliday
holiday extended to employees in cities
with population Of more than 5o'Wo
inhabitants we desire to mention. What
we claim is that there should be no1egis-
lation in regard to the number OF hours an
adult should labor, for that should bo a
matter of contract between the parties,
and when special legislation attempts TO
intimidate that right, it appears little
dangerous, and there will be no end to
the confusion. Employees will drop
their tools on Saturday noon regardless
OF their employers interests, hence
will he the means Of causing friction,
and in our Judgement the remedy Will
work injustice to all concerned. The
general assembly doubtless had good mo-
tiyes in view, but the better plan is not
% interfere.

After careful consideration the COM
mittee on judiciary of the general con-
ference of the Methodist Church, ascer-
tanned that the clause in the constitu-
tiOn pertaining tOthe admissionOf women
was not just clear, and might be sub
jected to adverse opinions honestly
taken; hence the clause was wholly
disregarded and the matter decided by
conference. What the women desire
to be admitted for, as yet we have been
unable to learn, their rights to promote
good havenOt been abridged in any way,in
fact, they have received encouragement
on every hand. There has been no protests
entered that the business of the confer
ence has not been ably and judiciOusly
conducted. 1t is merely case OF 1--WE
want to be admitted without setting
forth our reasons"
We do not desire it to be understood
that we are criticising or finding fault,
as we aim to permit the church people
of any denomination to conduct their
affairs as seems best to them. We hope
to be able to give the facts and let the
matter rest.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
A Weekly Budget of Interesting News
from the Capital.

A Weekly Budget of Interesting News
from the Capital.
WASHINGTON, May y8-A petition signed
by thirty-one senators, twenty-nine re-
publicans, and PETER and Butler, popu-
lists, reading as follows, has been sent
to the finance committee Of the senate:
1.-THE undersigned request that, in case
any bill relating to internal revenue
or the tariff is considered by the senate
at the present session the committee on
finance will move and support the ad-
dition Of a clause providing for an ade-
Quate duty on WOOL" In a note which
accompanied the petition Senator Chand-
Ter wrote Senator Morrill, that the petit
tion had not been presented to any mem
Der of the finance committee for sigma
ture, nor tOeither of the republican sena-
who had voted against taking up the
Dingley bill, and that some senators
were out of town who would
have signed it, and closed with
the statement that he believed all re-
publican senators, and populists to be
in favor of putting a duty on wool
whenever any amendment Of the present
tariff laws is made. The petition was
not prepared with any idea that any bill
relating to the tariff would be passed at
this session, but merely to show what
might be expected if the bill for the re-
peal of the law which allows rebate of
the tax paid on alcohol used in the arts
be taken up.
The house by nearly tw0-third vote
refused to accept the senate amendment
to the Naval appropriation bill reducing
the number of battleships provided for
from four to two, and the talk Of the
members indicates an intention to stick
which will, if persisted in, win. A
change Of three or four votes in the SEN
ate is all that is needed to knock ont that
amendment.
The house got tired of waiting for the
senate to take the initiative in the mat
ter of adjournment and this week adopt
ed resolution to adjourn on May 19.
This means that the house will be ready
to adjourn on that date, but what the
senate intends to do is yet to be learned,
even by the senators themselves. 1t is
practically certain, however, that ad.
journment will not take place on the
date mentioned, nor for several weeks
thereafter.

The recent decision of the supreme
court in the Athens road case setting
aside local legislation, will work hard
ship in many cases. If this decision is
followed all special legislation will be
declared unconstitutional and nothing
but laws of a general nature will be
held good. The decision is doubtless a
correct one, but whether the trainers OF
the constitution really intended that we
should be deprived Of legislation for
special communities is question. We
are inclined to think that they did in
tend we should have special laws, but
omitted to give that authority. 1t
stands to reason that all laws would not
be applicable to all sections of the state
What might be considered good laws in
the northern part of the state might be
considered burdensome in the southern
part.

Toledo.
Chicago.

On account of the business interests Of
this place being so closely connected
with Cleveland, very little is known of
the people in general in the city of To-
ledo, although only eighty-live miles
away, hence a few words about it might
be interesting to some of our readers.
The population Of the city has now
reached over 100000 a gain of over SO
per cent. in one decade and as the soil is
fertile for many miles around it and
densely populated with rich farming
communities, the city has a stong follow
ing from the rural districts and is bound
to get there in time.
The founders of the city evidently did
not enjoy public parks or they were too
greedy to sell all the land for building
purposes as none has been reserved for
parks near the business center. The only
available site that could be found to build
a monument upon for the brave general
James B. Steedman, was a small fat-iron
piece of land where two streets intersect
, and that is only twenty feet from bust
ness house. Sunday was the first day thu
boats yentured into the lakes, One lef
for Detroit, and two arrived in the after
noon from Sandusky and the islands. Or
account of it being the opening of tn,
season the docks and streets were lineC
with people to see the first arrival.
The street car system is nearly per
feet and a number of business blocks
public buildings, churches and places o
amusement would be credit to cities o
even larger population.

Chicago Thugs XIII Merchant and Sc
yerely Wound Three Other Persons.
CHICAGO, May S.-Last night while
the street was crowded with people, an
attempt was made to rob the dry goods
store of George ]. Marshall at 376 to
3S2 West Madison street. The propri-
etor was shot and killed. The cashier
was shot while defending the safe and
three other persons wounded.
Shortly before o'clock man ap-
parently about SO years old entered
the store and asked what time it would
close. On being informed that o'clock
was the time, he departed Promptly
at 9 o'clock he returned, accompanied
by man about rs years old and an
other about 80. Two of the men came
inside the store while the third stood
guard at the door. Each man was
armed with two revolvers. The two
men who went into the store immedi-
ately approached Miss Garretson at
the cashiers desk and, leveling their
revolvers at her, ordered her to open
the cash drawer. She refused and,
closing the drawer, turned off the
combination. One of the robbers shot
her in the hand, but not quick enough
to prevent the drawer being locked.
Mr.. Marshall ran to the cashiers desk
and the robbers ran out, pursued by
him.
When on the sidewalk the three des-
peradoes each fred two shots at the
proprietor and then, firing to scatter
the crowd, started away on the run.
Marshall was hit by two balls-one in
the temple and the other in the left
breast. He died instantly. Just at the
time the shooting occurred, cable
train passed and two bullets went
through one of the open cars. One of
them passed through both legs of Miss
Kitty Hines, passenger. A general
panic followed and in the effort OF the
passengers to get off and away from
danger, many were badly bruised. Two
of the highwaymen ran east on Madi-
son street and the other went west.
The two running east had gone about
a block when they were ordered tohalt
by A. S. Bagg, who happened to be
passing at the time. Bagg was imme'
diately shot and fell over on the side
walk. The chief of police has de-
scriptions of the men from over dozen

1t appears to be the aim of many of
the prOprietOrs Of manufacturing plants
and acertain number of producers toprac-
tice fraud upon their patrons in various
forms. The food and dairy commissioner
and all of his assistants are kept busy
ferreting out frauds. What is true in
the food and dairy department the same
state of affairs are likely to exist with
other branches of industry. 1t will be q
little expensive to the states or general
government to cause special inspectors
to be appointed to look after the various
branches of industry, but on the Othel
hand, in time it will pay. 1t is done il
older countries and proved a success ant
it doubtless would be here. The pro
ducer, the manufacturer, the jobber ant
the retailer should be alike amenable Il

President Cleveland is moving about

written nothing to signify that he is out
of the race for third term. we have
every reason to believe that he is in the
race. The democrat party have no more

land Notwithstanding the numerous
blunders that he has made.
