Assassin Giteau's Jury.


Occasionally one sees in print an
assertion to the effect that all Of the
members Of the jury who convicted
Charles j. Giteau, the assassin of
President Garfield, Of murder in the
first degree, have either died Of vio-
lent deaths or are insane and con-
fined in some asylum. This is not
true, and with but one exception,
only one of the jurymen is confined
in an asylum and only four of them
have since died When the jury re-
turned a verdict Of guilty as charg-
ed against Giteau, he rose up in the
court room and cried out to the
twelve men, "My blood is upon the
head of the jury, and don't you for
get it. That is my answer. God
will avenge this outrage" The pop
ular impression that many, If not
all, Of the jurymen had been taken
away prompted John P. Hamlin,
who was foreman Of the jury, to
make the following statement con-
cerning his assistants in that mem
orable trial and conviction:
"Our average ages at the time was
so years. Eight of us are still liv-
ing in this district Gates, l think
was the youngest, and Hobbs, who
was the second Of our number tC
die, was the oldest, if [ mistake not
Mr.. Prather died only a few days
ago. Thomas Heinlein and Fred
Brandenberg have passed away. Poor
Sheaham is in the insane asylum
His misfortune, | am sure, is moi
from anything that has to do with
the Giteau trial and conviction
Stewart, [ believe has retired from
business. Gates is employed at The
navy yard. Brawner is in the dis
trict service Wormley is also EN-
ployed in the district government
Langley has been employed for ;
long time in the treasury depart
ment"

We decided, before we asked for
any subscriptions, to what the fund
would be devoted. Everybody knew,
therefore, from the beginning how
his money would be spent. Nothing
was left in this respect to the com
mittee. Distinguished people would
probably succeed far better with
their public appeals if they could be
persuaded at the outset to state
clearly how they intended to expend
the money entrusted to their care.
Our fund is to be spent thus:
The Seattle Republican., 1901-09-27

100000 in grants for new
churches, mission halls, manses, SOL
diers and sailors homes, and for the
enlargement or rebuilding of old
places of worship; 100000 for for
eign missions; 100000 for home
missions, including the work of dea-
conesses, and temperance work;
100000 towards the enlargement Of
our children's homes at Banner road,
at Edgeworth and elsewhere, so as
to secure that no Methodist children
shall ever have to go to the work
house; 100000 for educational
work-namely, a new training col
lege, elementary day schools and
middle-class schools; E25O,OOO for
the erection of a central Methodist
hall, or church house, in the west
end Of London, as the denomina-
tional headquarters Of Wesleyan

The second novel feature of our
fund is the signing by every donor
Of one guinea Of a church roll, which
we call the historic roll. This roll
contains nothing but the name and
address of the donor. No reference
is made in this, or, indeed, in any
other public list, to the sum given
to the fund. Some generous people
have given many thousands to the
fund, but their names stand side BY
side with those who have given only
one guinea. To every subscriber to
the fund we present certificate, IL
lustrated with scenes from Metho-
dist history and early leaders of
Methodism. Of these, more than
100000 have been issued. We have
also had a commemorative medal
struck, of which more than 10000
have been sold.

REALM OF
RELIGION
Among the Worlds Christians
and Quasi Christians.
COLLECTING MILLIONS.

The Methodist million guinea
fund, as it is sometimes called, now
nearing completion, has reached its
present position by initiating the
democratic financial basis which the
founder of Methodism adopted in
his early Methodist societies. There
were three important features-two
of them novel ones-in connection
with the fund. First, there was the
fundamental principle that from ev-
cry Wesleyan Methodist member of
society, worshiper or adherent-of
whom there are probably from g.
100000 to 100000 in England,
Scotland and Wales-we asked one
guinea. Up to the present moment
we have promises amounting to
more than f93O,OOO, and we have
about f66O,000 paid. 1t is a very
noteworthy fact that out of the large
sum thus promised, as nearly as we
can estamite, about 100000 is CIV
en- in guineas by individual donors
of that amount.

THE WAGES or NN.

Although not inclined to gloat over the serious
financial condition which has been brought about in
England through her dastardly attempt to distroy
the South African republics, we of America, who
seem susceptible TO the fever of conquest should
familiarize ourselves with that condition and learn
the lesson it imparts.
The budget Shows that the war is now costing
seven and half million dollars each week Al the
present rate tho surplus left over in the treasury
from the last loan would have been completely ex-
hausted by the middle of October and the govern
ment will be under the necessity of negotiating for
another loan. The burden of taxation 10 already
causing great Inconvenience and discomfort among
the people, and the ministry is completely bafed as
to the most expedent manner of securing the neces-
sary war funds. The London Statist sound and
conservative journal of finance and economies, has
calculated the cost OF another year of warfare at the
present rate of expenditure at $780, 100000! There
is nothing in present conditions that presage an
early conclusion to the conflict. The Beers having
all to lose and absolutely nothing to gain by ces-
saton of hostilites inspired by deadly hate and en-
dowed with bulldog tenacity, seem determined to
fight to the last extremity Such being true it would
require far keener Strategy and greater ability than
the English army has yet displayed to force the end
In fact it would seem from their attitude that the
most sanguine of the war statesmen do not permit
themselves to hope for very speedy conclusion
This condition is creating deep uneasiness in
ministerial circles. The common people will rebel
against further imposition of war taxation The
wealthy who have contributed there full share
through the income tax will hardly consent to an in
creased burden And 80 the war continues. the
debt increases and the question of ways and means
becomes darker and more portentious to those who
are presumed to solve the problem.
To the American imperialist who would plunge
this country into similar difficulties the predicament
of the English should be an object lesson. We have
no income tax to fall back upon, thanks to the su-
preme court decision, and the common people would
have to bear the burden of the imperiastic career
England is no exceptional case Italy and Spain
attest as much "The wages of sin is death"

factpred and stored ice last winter and spring and
not have waited for the first hot day to start their
machines and then run a race with the heat
The fact is, however that if the resources Of the
company were husbanded there would be no neces.
sity for inconveniencing and dscomfortng the pub
llc IN the way that is now being done. We are re-
laby informed that nearly half the output of the ice
factory is delivered to the Southern Pacific railroad
company for overland fruit trains and passenger cars
This portion of the output we are told is sold to the
railroad company for FIVE dollars a ton while the
people of Tucson charged about twenty dollars
ton for the remainder How does this strike the av-
erage Tucson citizen?
Again, it is notorious fact that the saloons
that handle certain brand of beer can get all the
ice they want-even more than they need, while wo-
man and children suffering at their homes with heat
and fever cannot get pound to ameorate their suf-
ferings. Are the saloon people the elect of heaven

dren are allowed TO suffer-
1t was Boss Tweed of New York. when his thiey-
cry discovered, asked "what are you going to do
about it,? We presume the owners of the Tucson
Ice Company will make the same reply to the CON-
plants of the people of this town. But there will
come day of reckoning The day is not far dis.
tant trust, when business men of capacity fore
sight enterprise and public spirit will under
take to furnish the people of Tucson with ice Ice
in this climate, is not mere luxury-it ia neces-
sity. The present ice manufacturing concern is
managed in from hand to mouth fashion, and with
absolute indifference to the comfort and convenience
of the community. When the new ice factory is es
tabshed the people of this town will know what to
do with the present outfit.

CURING VICE BY INDUCING IT.

Of all radical doctrines about intemperance as

ated by body of English scientists belonging to an
association for the study of inebriety
The crucial points in their findings are stated

continual use rather abuse, OF alcohol tends to
render less innately prone to excessive indul-
gence than it otherwise would have been and that
this result s brought about by the elimination OF
those with strong tendency to alcoholic indulgence
and the survival of those with weak tendency 10
alcoholic indulgence" To this is added the comfort
ing that the widespread belief that parent
al indulgence in drink tends to render the offspring
"more innately prone than they otherwise would
have been TO nebrety is not warranted by existing
evidence the subject"
OF course these remarkable views are set forth
with many qualifications. and they would not deserve
mention it not that they are subscribed to by
men OF recognized scientific standing in Great Bri-
tain, who ready TO defend their theories and ap
parently not lacking for adherents. We would
like to know what that profound reformer and

THE ATTITUDE OF McLAURIN.

In the July number of the Worlds Work Sena-
tor McLaurn of South Carolina makes another finn
sy attempt to justify his contemplate treason which
either brands him superficial ignoramus or as
the most dangerous sort of politician AS introduc
tory to his plea for the adoption of Republican pol
icy he claims. with justice, doubt that the pract
cal unanimity of political action in the South has
been due to the fear of negro dominion in the
whites should divide their strength between the two
parties 1t will be recalled that during the last cam
paign the Republican press waxed eloquent in de-
nouncing the disfranchisement of the negro, which
it falsely laid at the door OF the Democratic party
At that time the Democratic press replied that the
action of the Southern whites rather than
of the Democracy and that the dsfranchisement
of the negro would, by removing the fear of negro
dominion, result in the accession to the Repub-
can ranks of thousands of sordid whites. The Re-
publican press understood the situation perfectly
and secretly encouraged the movement and rejoiced
in its success. Now comes Mr.. McLaurn the spokes-
man of the administration in the South, with vim
dcation for the Democratic reply.
Such being the case, what does McLaurn now
suggest? That the South indorse the imperalistic
policy of the Republican party that it adopt the Re-
publican pet theory of protective tariff, and that it
give it's sanction to the infamous larceny of ship
subsidy.
Does he propose to openly avow an acceptance
OF the Republican idea and the remuneration of the
ancient Jetfersonian conception of governmental
power and purpose? With deception that is born
of natural cowardice he proposes to continue to con-
taminate the Democracy with pretended allegiance
while he responds to the dictates of the administra-
tion. He talks lightly of progressive Democracy
and urges remuneration of those mehonored prin-
cpes that have been the inspiration of the par
ty. He does rti seem to know that the elemental
principles of tLo partythose principles that can no
more ally with Republican principles than oil can
mix with water eternal and applicable to all ma
tons. Issues come and go, no doubt but the prin-
ciples of liberty, justice and equality upon which
rests the Democratic faith never die. And there
has never been time when these principles were
more essential to the public welfare. Today, when
the predominant party determined to trampe
upon the liberty of weaker nations, and convert
government into the financial agent of privileged
classes, the elemental principle of Democracy as
unciated by Jefferson makes it impossible for any
honest Democrat to think of compromising with the
opposing party. If McLaurin is a Repubcan-and
he is-let him go where he belongs The Democracy
OF today is intrused with the preservation of Con-
stitutiona government and the propagation of the
Democratic principle, and in the present fight there
is but one shbboleth:
He who dallies is bastard
And he who doubts is damned

MoRGAN's BILL APPROVED.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 12.-The Senate
Committee on Isthmian Canals to-day au-
thorized a favorable report on Senator
Morgans bill providing for the acquisi-
ton from Nicaragua and Costa Rica OF
the right of way via the Nicaragua route.
Senator Morgan later presented this re-
port to the Senate, accompanying the re-
turn of the bill with a report on the sub
ject of a canal across the isthmus. Ac-
ton on the bill providing for the cOnstruc-
ton of the canal was deferred.
The introductory pages of the report
contain general review of the impor-
tance of the construction Of an isthmian
canal, and in the second paragraph of the
report it Is declared that "the failure to
accomplish this work would create a feel
ing of national despair
Contending for the importance of the
enterprise, Senator Morgan urges that no
nation nor any combination of private in
terests can have any right to prevent it's
contamination. There remains he
says, ~but one barrier to the union of the
Atlantic and Pacific oceans and no one
nation has the right to declare that 1t
never shall be removed except with it's
consent"
