North Caroiina's Burglary Law.

North Carolina is one OF the few states
in the Union which holds the crime of bur-
glary in proper estimation. by providing a
death penalty for those convicted of it.
Attention Is pointedly called to this fact
by the conviction at AsheviIle the other
day of four men who in February last en-
tered post office. and were proceeding to
rob the safe. when the postmaster. accept
ing favorable opportunity, grasped
pistol and opened fire on the quartet In
the scrimmage he was very nearly killed,
but he frightened the burglars away, and
they were subsequently captured. Unless
reprieved or pardoned they will be hanged
as their crime amply warrants. If more
states followed this example and included
burglary among the capital crimes the rec
ords of nocturnal killings and stealings
would diminish. In burglary the advan-
tage Is always heavily with the thief He
risks little from his victim and IL caught
under the normal state of the law he may
serve only ten years or less in prison. To
a hardened criminal this is trifie, consid-
cred in connection with the chances of
escape, the difficulty of prosecution and
the possibility of pardon. But with the
death penalty assured In case of convic-
tion the merely mercenary criminal would
hesitate before engaging in such job. In

Naval Speeds

The DEVELOPMENT by the new battle ship
Illinois of 1871 knots speed on her official
trial trip marks another advance in modern
warship building. American officers believe
that the battle ships of our navy are faster
than those of similar types in other coun-
tries and that the Illinois is therefore the
feetest heavy fighter afioat. There was a
time. few years ago, when the swift bat
tie ship was considered an anomaly, weight
Of armor and of guns being regarded as Of
paramount Importance. But what with
scaling down in some of the heavier parts
and building more powerful engines and
sharpening the hull lines the battle ships
have been developed through the fifteen
and sixteen-knot stages until the desired
eighteen-knot boat is regarded we'll with
in reach The next product of an American
yard may attain that goal 1t Is important
TO note in this connection that the naval
board of construction has just decided that
it will be unwiSe to strive for faster battle
ships than nineteen knots, on the ground
that it is desirable to preserve the distinc-
tions between the classes. There is ques-
tiOn whether the future sea fighter will not
be a compromise between the swift armored
cruiser and the slower more heavily ar
mored battle ship. The war with Spain
demonstrated that on some occasions the
Ddttfe snip can nOiu us own IN a race, as
notably in the fight off Santiago where the
Oregon performed marvels of efficiency in
competition with lighter craft. At the
same time many occasions during that
campaign demonstrated the value of the
swift, light cruiser. the essential auxiliary
of lighting fleet. So II the experience Of
that campaign as at present interpreted Is
TO guide in the future there will doubtless
remain a separation of the vessels into
types corresponding in the main to the
present divisions 1t Is perhaps wholly
logical that the battle ship should advance
materially in speed. as the Illinois has just
given an admirable illustration. to preserve
the relations between this class and the
cruisers. which have gone forward so rap
idly during the past fifteen years In the
same manner new records are to be ex-
pected from the cruisers in turn, as they
seek 10 hold their own relatively against
the swiftly developing torpedo-boat type.

An Indicator of Business.

From the Rochester democrat.
Sales of postage stamps are a pretty ac-
curate indication of the country's pros
periIy and business activity, and by this
test it Is shown that American commercial
expansion has made great progress during
the past twenty years. From figures OBJ
tanned at Washington a correspondent Of
the st. Louis "Globe-Democrat" learns that
in 1881 the sales Of stamps amounted to G7
cents per inhabitant, in 1880 to 85 cents and
in 1901 to s1.33. These were years of pros
perity and therefore furnish a good basis
for comparison. In 1900 the gross revenue
from stamps was three times as great as
1t was nineteen years before although the
population increased less than so per cent
At the end of the period of nineteen years
the proceed per capita from sales OF stamps
had increased nearly 80 per cent. The COM
parison is not carried back OF 1881. because
previous to that year letter postage was
so per cent higher than In 19OO and the
maximum weight for a single rate Of pos
tage was only one-half what it is at the
present time. A country Is doing well, from
the standpoint of intelligence and culture,
as we'll as commerce and industry, when
the average amount spent for postage by
each individual inhabitant nearly doubles

public conscience to the point OF revolt
against the machine, thus clearly held
forth to view in all its corruption. the loss
of the money offered by Mr. Wanamaker
and OF the other advantages surrendered

may lead to more systematic considers

then a proportionate return on the gross
business of the lines. The aggregate Of the
sums paid into municipal treasures by the
American street railways Is probably the
merest tithe Of the profits earned by those
corporations. New York is having a diff
cult time enforcing the franchise tax law
passed while Mr.. Roosevelt was governor,
and 1t may have to await many months be-
fore decision can be secured compelling
obedience to it. Meanwhile there is a de-
cided sentiment in favor of securing more
equitable relations between the transporta-
tion companies and the cities. The public
has come into clearer conception Of the
value Of the public utilities which have In
the past been freely distributed. With some
cities In other countries engaging in limit

From the Chicago Tribune.


A good deal of maudin sympathy seems
to be wasted on the post office clerk. who.
when caught in the act Of stealing mail.
pleaded that his salary was only $50 a
month and that he had a large family. 1t
Is true that $50 a month Is not a large
salary. but 1t is also true that a great
many people in the United States get no
more and manage to live. at least honestly.
and occasionally to save money. 1t is also
true that there are many other positions
in the postal service which pay much bet
ter and that a clerk who does his work
well and faithfully is, under the operation
of the civil service law, reasonably certain
to win promotion. If the fact that what a
man earns Is not sufficient to support his
family in the style which he would like
to maintain is to be accepted excuse
for dishonesty, then few dishonest people
will be punished. Moreover. any man who
attempts to rob the mails shows himself to
be not only a knave but fool as well.
Under no circumstances can he expect to
get more than few dollars while his de-
lection and punishment are as certain as
anything can we'll be. The people who
sympathize with the man whose weakness
has led him into crime should be careful to
put their sympathy on right grounds.

The Virginia Convention.

The Virginia constitutional convention de-
cided by good majority not to be sworn.
and is proceeding with its business uninter-
rupted. as one may say, by the oath OF
office suggestion in explanation OF this
course is that. as one of the objects OF
the convention is to nullify an amendment
to the Constitution of the United states.
swearing the members to support that in
strun,ent would have been inappropriate
and Illogical. not to say embarrassing. But
that does not cover the case of MIR. Daniel.
the most distinguished member of the body.
for as a senator in Congress he Is already
under oath to support the Constitution Of
the United States against all enemies. for
eign and domestic; and while as a member
of the Virginia constitutional convention
he Is not exercising the functions OF a
senator, but those of a citizen, his oath
as senator still runs against every act
in whatever capacity he may perform. The
circumstance upon the whole Is interest
Ing and may cut 81 figure at later day
when the work of the convention Is COM
pleted and comes up for judgment.
The movement against negro suffrage has
at every point developed some curious
phases. And necessarily So 1t is no easy
matter to destroy the spirit Of a law with
out frankly violating its letter: and such
has been the gist of the proposition sub
mitted in every state where juggling with
the suffrage has Seen undertaken. In Lou
isiana the state convention took up what
is known as the grandfather clause un-
der which no white voter however ignorant
or unworthy would be excluded. But be-
fore taking final action the convention for
malIy consulted with Senators Caffery and
McEnery. both lawyers and the latter an
ex-chief justice Of the states supreme
court Both pronounced the clause un-
constitutional and advised against its
adoption. Nevertheless it was adopted. and
Mr. McEnery has entered upon his second
term as senator under a commission
founded upon a IN aaSure which as lawyer
he has condemned. And he must now de-
fend as senator what as a lawyer he re-
CARDS with disfavor.
II so happens that the Constitution of

discussion indulged in for forty years.
