THE HEINICUS CRIME
For Which Another Punishment is
 Awai ing Juan Lopez.

Juan Lopez was in Justice Burnetts court yesterday cn the char ge of steal ing q hat. This was more than an or dinarily aggravated instance of lar ccuy. The theft was committed just as Lcpez was leaving the county jail, be fore he had got out of the building after having served Q term for larceny. The hat was a So Stetson belonging to John Matthews. an Indian, who was also an inmate of the jail and who was discharged the same day but. q little later than Lopez. The hunt for the mis- c3eant was at once instituted, but ha ccyId not be located until yesterday. lie was still in possession Of the hat.
 Justice Burnett sentenced him to seventy days in the county jail, and in passing upon the case he remarked that this was certain proof that the jail jS not reformatory institution as it is supposed to be. He believed that there is only one absolutely sure way to cure ! man of a propensity for stealing, anl that is by capital punishment.
 It will probably be q long time t.cugh before Lopez will venture to steal anything from a fellow prisoner. Tha offensa committed by him comes within the jurisdiction of the kangaroo court, and if it has net done so it will sit upon him as soon as the members of the court learn why he has been sent back within their jurisdiction. He will be given an application of the ''cob, ' that is, a leather tug. and those who aro familiar with the operations of the court say that il has never been found rcccssary to administer that instru- inert to the same man twice. It is not crly painful to him but to all who hear him while it is being administered
 After all, Lopez is not alone in this crime and many of his fellow criminals have escaped the jail and have re- znained untouched of the ''cob-" They are those who exchange their hats for hcttcr ones at hotel dining-rooms, and who when detected get off on the plea | Of having made a mistake.

WATER FOR ARID LANDS
Desert Country Between Yuma and
 the Needles to be Irrigated.

An officer of the coast and geodettc survey now on his way west from Washington is authority for the state ment that all the desert land lying on the California side from Yuma to the Needles will be the first to receive the benefit Of the arid lands bill passed at the recent session Of congress.
 The entire district between Yuma and Needles is to be surveyed for this pur- pose with q view of drawing water from the Colorado river for the irriga- tion Of these lands. Net only the lands below sea level are intended to be irri- gated, but also these higher up. If taken cut of the Colorado river above Yuma and distributed over the desert section.
 Two surveying parties are to be put in the field, if they are not in the field already. One will start at Yuma and work north, and the other will begin at Needles and work south. plotted and the feasibility of the pre- jects determined. There are more than Q million acres on the desert which it is claimed are susceptible to irrigation and need only water to make the land as productive as any in the country.
 The success of the imperial project and the great volumes of water that so to waste in the Colorado river has called the attention of the government officials to the desert section particu- larly as enc of the best places to begin the work under the new act. The I'm pcrial canals reach several hundred thousand acres, but there is a vast tract that cannot ba supplied from this source. The surveys will be made for the purpose of having water brought on to other tracts if possible. The sur veys will be made in San Diego. River side and San Bernardino counties.
 On the first of July the sum of S5,0G0.- eco became available for the work. and there will consequently be no lack of funds for making the surveys. The de tails Of the project have not yet been received in this city. Should the plans be carried cut it will mean an immense development in the entire eastern part Of San Diego.

The Gray Commission To-day.

The testimony given during the last
few days at Scranton gives the Gray
Commission new aspect.
Hitherto the commission has been
listening to discussions between en-
ployer and employed as to wages. hours
Of labor and the conditions of the miners
life. With these questions the public,
not having chosen 10 give themselves
authority over them, have had senti
mental connection only But during the
last few DAYS we have heard straight
from the victims own lips the accounts
of outrages committed throughout the
strike by members of JOHN MITCHELL's
organization. The abused miners have
told of a reign of terror, of assaults OF
the most atrocious kind. and of denial
to them of those rights 10 work and live
in peace and safety which the most ele-
mentary rules of civilized government
hold to be rightfully inviolabe. These
are matters of immediate and intense
concern to the public, and imposing upon
them the duty of sparing no pains in order
TO provide against the irrecurrence.
In becoming tae means of placing a
list of these outrages upon the official
record, so that all may see and UNDER
stand, the Gray Commission has acquired
a relation to the law which did not be-
long to it before, and which confers upon
it unquestionably a character Of the
highest public usefulness.
The lesson OF this record should be
taken to heart by the entire community,
and by no portion Of it more deeply than
by organized labor, under whose banner
and for whose benefit these offences
against justice and order have been
committed.
The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1833-1916, 1902-12-21

Il would be better that those institutions
should procure legal authority for the
employees they require for their peculiar
needs.
Common sense dictated the recon-
mendation in the report that promo
tons in the department be made on the
basis of the candidates knowledge OF
police affairs and efficiency without ex-
animation on educational matters. A
policeman is not a schoolteacher, or a
preacher or public lecturer, and many
efficient officers would trip up on a
literary examination.
The commission splits on the platoon
question, Mr.. PHILBIN being in favor OF
the three-platoon plan, advocated by
many OF the men, and Col. PARTRIDGE
adhcring to the present system. In re-
gard To il they agree on only one point,
and iilai is the necessity Of having more
men for patrol duty. The number OF
patrolmei. they say. should be increased
to S 900 next year, no matter what platoon
system is adopted. AT present many
policemen are detailed as messengers
in public offices, and to perform watch
mems duty at semi-public institutions,
and as attendants for public officers.
Why these men should not be assigned
to the duties for which they were EN-
ployed has never been made clear, but
they are of the lucky of the earth.
The suggestions as to pensions, retire
ments and the like are of an administra-
tive nature details of little interest to
the public. Excepting the suggestion
that an independent Commissioner, ir-
removable by the Mayor, be appointed,
there is no agreement in the report Of
special public consequence.

porting people between their home and

front the city. The business centre Of

hood Of the City Hall. and with the increase
Of our business population. the task Of carry
ing them from desk TO table and rice rersd
threatens so to overstran our means OF
transportation as almost to paralyze them.
The traffic from Long Island will be helped
by the coming bridges and by the Long
Island Railroad tunnel to the Battery, but
these are bound to prove insufficient. The
traffic from the western side of the city
from New Jersey. while provided for 10
some extent by the Pennsylvania tunnel,
which ends at Thirty street, will in
some respects make things worse, since it
will increase the number of passengers to
be carried from uptown down. The plan
proposed is to build tunnel from New
Jersey which shall land it's passengers
within easy walking distance Of the City
Hall, and by extending this tunnel over TO
Long leland, offer the same facilities to the
rapidly increasing population of Brooklyn.
Something Of this kind will have to be done.

Girls and Farmer,

Will the girls marry farmers? So asks
the Hon. HENRY VOORHEES, Of Traverse,
Mich, in very solemn communicat ion
to the Inter Ocean. Perhaps he is right
to be solemn. II pays, for one thing;
and men have an additional reason for
solemnity in the fact that they are being
extruded pitilessly by triumphant gym
ocracy. As Mr.. VOORHEES, says, in
stores and factories girls are crowding
out the men. and who is to support a
family in the future? Perhaps it is
borrowing trouble to worry about that.
If man becomes a clinging and depend
ent creature, his better half will have
to support him. There are men lazy
enough to bow to that without shrink
ing. The oak and the ivy will
change parts. But where Is the farmer
To get wife now when the farm
er's daughters are trooping to the
cities? Il know plenty of bachelor
farmers says Mr.. VOORHEES,, and
perhaps on the next farm there Ia an old
maid, disappointed in her city aspira-
tons because her sisters married or are
employed in town. Why don't the
bachelor farmers do their duty? Then
there will be no old maids and no bach
elor farmers.
Still. if Mr.. VOORHEES, is right, the
girls don't want to marry farmers:
