NEGRO SHOT
LAST NIGHT
Bullet Pierced His Heart
Ha Died Instantly.
SLAYER WAS UNSUITABLE
The Facts Plainly Show
That 1t Was a Case
of Kill Or Be
Killed.

William Cash, colored shot and ms
stantly killed Harry Armstrong, also
olored, about $50 O'Clock las night, in
the saloon of MIR. Chas, Walters, on
Bay street, opposite the Bay LION
Works.
1t seems that these two negroes had 3
quarrel some days ago, and Armstrong
had made threats on the lite of Cash.
Last night Armstrong, armed with
knife, went about the city looking for
Cash, and he found him in the above
stated saloon, where he is employ ed.
The negro at once drew his knife and
made for Cash, who pulled his pistol
and began shooting He fired thee
shots, bat only one took effect
The ball entered under The left arm
and passed through the heart, killing
him instantly. Cash saw his man drop
aud then made Lis escape but later re-
turn ed and gaye himself up to Officer
Isaac Smith and was placed in the coun-
ty jail
Coroner Jenning, was notified an
at once summoned jury, but after
being in session for 'some time no YER
dict was reached, and the jury was
ordered to meet at the o0r0ner's office
tomorrow afternoon at four O'clOck
when soma more eye witnesses will ap-
pear.
From facts gathered by a TIMES .
CALL reporter, 1T seems certain that
Och did the shooting in selfdefence.
Armstrong, the dead negro, has a
very bad reputation and has only
recently been released from the penis
tentisry, while Cash Is well known
and has always epjoyed good repu-
tation, and the fact that he returned
and gave himself up to the tffi,er, is
more strong evidence that be shot his
man only to save his own LIFE.
1t IS a so understood that Armstrong
had a QUARREL In the acre a few min
utes before the killing and made an a.
tempt to cut Pete H'dgon and would
have done so, had it not bsen for Jerry
Hampton, who was a bystander. and
pulled his pistol, Armstrong then
ran, and went directly to the saloon

hairs breadth from being a general
panic, the administration press is loud
in it's observation that prosperity
has come to stay This is gratifying
news, for we all want prosperity and
we want it to stay; but when this
opinion is based on the raise of wages
as it is, we should not overlook the
fact that the standard of wages is still
not high enough to make their pur-
chasing power offset the raise in the
price of products. The latter has gone
up, through combines and trusts, from
25 to so per cent, while the average
wage rise has only been from 10 to Is
per cent. When wages go up, the out
look becomes hopeful, but if there
were such leaps upward that the la
borer would have a comfortable sur
plus to lay by, after providing for his
every day needs, the outlook would
be still more hopeful-Coming Nation.

The New York Journal is in favor of
law exempting from taxation any
home owned by man with family
of children whose income does not ex-
ceed three dollars a day. Such a law
ought to be enacted in every state in
3the unfon.-Omaha Labor Bulletin.
But how would the government what
a man earned? Half our millionaires
would successfully claim exemption I'M
der any law that could be framed. It
would take an army of detectives to
get the data, and their reports, could
not be depended upon. The just way
is to exempt all homes" from taxes
ton, but tax the land on which they
are built, because while the Individual
makes his home, the community makes
