NO INCREASE FOR
COMMISSIONERS
Engineer RundIett's Recommendation
Turned Down by Assembly.

The street commissioners in the en-
ploy of the city engineering depart
ment will have to be content with a
salary of 5000 year for the present at
least. The assembly last night refused
to consider City Engineer Rundlett's
recommendation to increase their pay
to $1,000 a year.
Assemblyman Wheeler led the as
sault on the proposition, and was sue
cessful to the extent that he added
Assemblyman Whitcomb to the opposi-
ton, and the increase was killed. As
semblymen Doran, Van Slyke and
Haas only voted for it.
The engineers recommendation in
creasing the pay of the street sweep
ers and sewer employees from to 5
cents an hour was approved.

PAVE UNIVERSITY
FROM RICE TO DALE
Board Has Advertised for Bids for the
Improvement.

The board of public works yesterday
issued call for bids for the paving of
University avenue, from Rice to Dale
street, with asphalt. The bids will be
opened on the afternoon of the 9th.
Because of its length, unusual width
and the number of property owners in
volved perhaps the improvement of no
street in recent years has attracted as
much attention as this. The city engi-
neer has figured the cost of the work
at about 81 a square yard. It is not
thought that the property owners will
stand for any figure above that.
The entire job figures about $4,000
square yards, and Of this the st. Paul
City Railway company will have to
pay for over 1000 square yards of
asphalt.

THE ENFORCEMENT OF LAW IN
NORTH CAROLINA.

OCCuIGe anu lndl 1uC4C40 o4C a
lowed to Escape With Nominal Pun
ishment.
The trial of Bishop for the killing
of Wilson in Charlotte, the result of
which is announced in this paper to-
day, has been watched with interest.
The great interest in the tragedy was
due to the fact that Wilson was killed
while he was trying to put Bishop
out of his (Wilson's) house, where
Bishop was an unwelcome visitor and
where he was engaged in conduct of
which Wilson did not approve. The
verdict of the jury and the sentence
of the court dispose of the theory
that a mans home is his castle; that
he hasa right to say who shall come
into it and who shall stay out; that
he has a right to protect his family
from those whose purposes are evil
IDENTIFY not honorable; or that he has
a right to have a say about the con-
duct of visitors in his home.
1t matters not what ones opinion
may be of the Wilson girls ~associa-
ton with Bishop or the Schultz wo-
man, or of her in~discretion in asking
them into her home. Her parents
did not approve of the visitors and
when her father was told of their
conduct he promptly ordered them
out. Had Bishop gone as promptly
as his companion there would have
been no tragedy. But he stopped to
parley. He was a gentleman (save
the mark), he said, and he evidently
did not propose to be run out. Will
son then did what any self-respect-
ing white man would have done IN
der similar circumstances-he under
took to put Bishop u No matter
if he hit him with a stick as alleged;
he would have been justified in doing
worse. If Wilson had shot Bishop
down like a dog, as he ought to have
done; he should have been acquitted.
But Wilson met his death and Bishop
gets off as light as if the killing had
been the result of a common bar-room
brawl with Wilson the aggressor.
Bishop may serve a year or two in
the ~penitentiary, and then a pardon.
And now comes another terrible
tragedy in Raleigh, recorded in this
paper to-day. In this case as in the
Bishop case, the conditions seemed
to have been reversed-the man who
was wronged and who under the old
order of things would have been JUS
titled in killing his adversary, is him
self killed, and apparently the kill
ing was wanton. If the preponder-
ence of the evidence is to be believed.
the killing of Skinner by Haywood
was wilful and malicious, and was
done because Haywood's guilty con
science condemned him for the wrong
he had done SINNERS s~ister-in-Iaw

Skinner to punish HIM.

If ever a man had a right to put
another out of his house, Wilson was
the man. Bishop was a married
man, with a bad reputation, had been
on a weeks debauch, and some of the
circumstances that can hardly be
printed, even though they may have
been unknown to the dead man,
should have influenced the jury to
give the criminal the full penalty.
The burden of proof was upon the
defendant to show that it was not
murder in the second degree. The
jury, however, brought in a verdict
of manslaughter, the maximum
penalty of which is twenty years i'm
prisonment in the penitentiary, and
then Judge Walter II. Neal sentenced
him to five years Imprisonment. In
the face of the epidemic of murder
in the Carolinas it would seem that
IN example of severity was needed
rather than of the putting of a pre-
MUM ON such double criminality as
Bishop was guilty of. There was a
bar-room murder in Hamlet Satur-
day and another on a public street in
Raleigh in which a man was slain
because he dared defend the honor
of his family. These are the things
that encourage lynch-law.-Presby-
terrain Stndard.
The progressive farmer. [volume] (Winston, N.C.) 1886-1904, 1903-03-03

Jim Wilcox, against whom there
was not one scintilla of direct evil
dence, was twice found guilty of
murder. Bishop, who shot down his
victim in his own home and did not
deny it, was found guilty of man
slaughter and sentenced to only five
years in the penitentiary. Hay
wood, killed the man he had wronged
on the streets in broad daylight, will
plead self-defense, and will go free,
no doubt. Tillman, who murdered
an unsuspecting man without a word
or sign of warning, will go scot free,
it seems to be generally conceded.
In the face of such facts as these,
where in the name of heaven has JUS
tice flown ?-Concord Times.
