Washington, July Si-Charles Craven,

a moose was thrown around the
prisoners neck and he was led down
the pike in the direction of tie scene Of
the murder. The party haL proceeded
scarcely a mile when the rope was
thrown around a tree and Craven was
pulled from the ground.
AS soon as the body was raised in the
air the mob fired July five hundred
shots at the dying man. Before Craven
was lynched he was given an opportun-
ity to make a statement.
He strongly protested hat he was in
nocent of killing Wilson and also that
he was innocent OF burning Smiths
barn for which ne had been sentenced
to Jail two years before. Men, women
and children, who lined the o from
the Jail to the scene Of the execution,
literally cheered the mob.
Governor Montague vas appealed to

he ordered the Alexandria Light In
fantry to the scene, but the mob accom-
plished it's work before h arrival of
the soldiers.
Craven was captured Today on a farm
near Ashburn, Va. He was asleep in a
hay rick and was seized by three of his
pursuers-Ernest Norman, John Higgins
and Henry Bryant-before he dad time
to offer resistance.
a large crowd quickly gathered and
threatened to lynch the negro but the
sheriff succeeded IT. &c .ting his prisoner
into a train and safely lodged in jail at

WHAT SHALL BE DONE.

At the coming school election
there will be given an opportunity
for the tax payers to vote upon the
question whether they desire their
board Of school control to issue
bonds and the amount of those
bonds to be issued. The board has
been petitioned to erect school
house in the Crawford addition and
to provide for a kindergarten and
to make and provide additional
room in the schools proper.
All of the above will require
considerable money, the estimate
being about S22 900 to provide for
the increase in the schools and to
cut off the expense Of renting build
ings, to provide school rooms,
which the board has had to do for
the past several years.
In the judgment Of The Sentinel
the taxpayers should vote the
authority to the board to issue the
full amount of bonds. which the es'
innate made, says will be required
The school population is increasing
very rapidly, the requirements o
the schools are being augmented
each year and while the board i:
about to issue bonds, there shoulc
be sufficient issued to take care o
all present needs and also to pro-
vide for the future increase in the
schools.
The board has carefully gone
over the matter and they believe
the taxes will not be increased in
the least by voting these bonds
than if it continued to pay rental
which has amounted during the
past few years to over S4oo per
annum. This saved it would pay
the major portion of the interest on
the bonds proposed to be voted
The citizens and patrons of the
schools should think carefully over
the matter and see that the authors
ization is voted at the election next
Monday.

RAILWAY CHANGES
kaleidoscope Changes on the
Railway Checker Board. 1.-The
Main Rio Grande Line to be
Shortened Over 100 Miles.

Some few weeks ago NJ. o. Delsplain,
in speaking OF the many changes which
were being made and were in contempla-
ton by the Rio Grande and particularly
OF the new branch being built from Del
ia to Hotchkiss, said to the reporter:
"Come here to this map. 1 want to
show you what will probably take place
in the line OF railway construction before
the SO 'son is over" Running his pencil
in an easterly direction from Delta and
Hotchkiss and from there direct east
erly course until the pencil stopped at
Bueua Vista, he said: you will see
that the Rio Grande will use that line
for . road or an extension OF the aotch-
kiss branch to Buena Vista before the
summer 10 over"
The words then spoken by Mr.. Della
plain were prophetic, as the press dis
patches today state that = contract has
been let for 50 extra miles of grading
and this will take the grade within 81
miles OF Buena Vista. The dispatches
also state that work is being prosecuted
in a westerly direction from Buena Vista
to connect with the line running from
Hotchkiss.
A study Of the map will show that
Delta and Buena Vista are about on
parallel and that the road proposed will
cut of probably hundred miles. The
idea OF the building Of this new line is to
shorten the transcontinental line Of
George Gould upon which he has set his
heart and which he has now nearly com
plsted from ocean to ocean.
The track being laid on the branch to
Hotchkiss Is narrow gauge but the dump
is being made for broad gauge and it is
expected that the third rail will soon be
laid The whole railway situation In the
state is being changed and that rapidly.
However, none OF the changes will affect
this city and it's splendidly bright future
The northern Colorado line will doubt
less be built and that soon, in fact it will
have to be built, because George Gould
is going to build up Pueblo. into which
his great Missouri Pacific line runs and
Denver and the Denver trade will have
to keep moving pretty fast on the rail
way checkerboard to keep up with
Pueblo and the immense industrial i'm
-portance which now obtains there and
which is being increased daily.

The statement made by Alder>
man Barton on the cost Of the
reservoir. shows that the city adopts
ed the wisest policy in building the
reservoir ITSELF The material used
was in excess OF the amount orig
inally provided and the cost to the
city much less than it would have
been, had it been done by contract.
If the city, if all cities would so
transact their business, that it
would be in line with the manner
in which large companies or cor
porations transact their business,
much would be saved the tax
payers.

N. BUNTING, Editor.

1t is the easiest thing in the
world to cry, down with the taxes,
but the thing is to discover some
method by which they may be
brought within the limit OF reason.
Every man, who has any business
sense, readily knows that the cost
of transacting the official business
of the county and the city is much
more than it would cost a private
individual. For instance, the entire
business transactions of the county
come within the line OF at least a
half million dollars. Probably very
much less than this, we have no
means Of knowing exactly how
much. To transact that business
it costs this county five times as
much as it would cost we'll regu>
lated and we'll officered mercantile
institution. Things are not done,
as if they should cost the minis
mum, but it looks much, as if the
maximum cost was sought. The
only way taxes can ever be reduced
is to reduce the system of carrying
on the county and city govern
ments, to the basis of well regu-
lated wholesale mercantile insti>
tuition. Until such time, we will
have taxes to pay at the maximum
and not the minimum.
