been adopted for the government Of
one city in the state, and it is likely
that more Of them will come under it
in future. Fut for the present sys-
tenn of government with mayor and
aldermen will obtain in many of the
cities for years and many suggestions
will be made looking to the pasasge
of a uniform and comprehensive city
code. S.
Prohibition will come in for it's
share of attention. An effort will be
made to secure the passage of a law
similar to that creating the Office of
temperance commissioner that was
passed at the last session of the leg
islature and declared unconstitution-
al by the supreme court. Efforts will
also be made to have a bill passed
creating a bureau Of inspection Of
liquor shipped into the state with a
view to stopping the business as far
as possible. Another bill will pro-
pose the repeal of the law which per-
mits druggists to keep liquor in store
and sell it on medicinal afidavits.
The better enforcement of the prohi-
bition law will afford much material
for proposed legislation.
The matter of taxation promises to
develop some important measures. A
permanent tax commission is favor
ed by some Of the members. At the
present time the system of obtaining
information with reference to the
value of corporate property for as
sessment is deficient and efforts will
be made to amplify the present law.
In connection with corporate legis-
lation the Republican platform Of the
state declared for the physical valua-
tion Of railroads and if this is car
ried into effect it will necessitate ap-
propriate legislation and an appro-
priation. 1t is considered certain that
an anti-pass law will be enacted, as
this is pledged by the Republican
state platform. An effort may be
made to reduce the rate of passenger
fares to 2 cents, and this will find
some strong opposition, as well as
earnest support.
L The game laws of the state will
come in for their usual amendments
The pure food department wants a
larger appropriation and an addition
al scope for its researches and ac-
$tivities. 3 ..5
A board of control for state insti-
tutions may be proposed. The init
iative and referendum passed by the
last session will come before the next
session, with a view to the second
passage Of this constitutional amend
ment. The prohibitionists of the
state will oppose it, as under its rules
It permits a proposed amendment Of
the constitution to be submitted by
petition, and this, in the view of
the prohibitionists, will permit the
prohibition question to be resubmit-
ted.
# Some propositions for the creation
OF new judicial districts will prob
ably be submitted. The regulation
OF the warehouses and the grain
trade Of the state, with proposition
to build and operate a terminal grain
elevator, will be the subject Of a re-
port to be submitted by the state
grain commission.
The educational department OF the
state t'a.ts viii ask for new legislation and
Tor state aid to rural schools.

Diamond Head itself were occupied by

from here was superb. Diamond Head
juts out considerably from the gen.

The Child Labor Law.

10 the Editor OF The Star:
There has been much comment recently
regarding the act of congress of Nav IS
1903, entitled IAN act to regulate the en-
ployment of child labor in the District of
Columbia" and l wish to make a few
observations on the subject.
This act Is designed to remove an evil
which exists not so much in the District of
Columbia as in the large cities of the
country where mills and factories are en-
gagged in business, and believe the effect
of this legislation here, If held to be valid,
will bring about great distress among the
poor people of our city who are dependent
upon their children for support Conse-
quently the damage wrought by the act
will be greater than the good attained.
/ am curious to know why any excep-
ton should be made in this statute be-
tween children living in the District of
Columbia. The act says. provided, That
the provisions of this section shall not
apply to children employed in the service
of the Senate" Why should children en-
ployed in the service of the Senate of the
United States be excepted therefrOm any
more than children employed in the Serv-
ice of the departmental stores of our city?
1t is not the children employed in the
Senate of the United States who need en-
ployment to maintain and educate them
selves and help support their sick or in
valid parents, but the ch1ldren who are
required of necessity to work in the de-
partmental stores and other like establish
mentS.
This statute, therefore, to my mind is
unconstitutional. If Congress deals with
the children of the District of Columbia,
it must deal with them as class and on
an equal basis 1t cannot make fish of
one and flesh of the other. Equality be-
fore the law is fundamental principle of
our republican institutions. Ii is a prin-
ciple as dear to us even life or liberty.
and any enactment which cOntravenes 1t
cannot have the force of law. This doc
trine is laid down by all the appellate
courts of the United States. The act dis
eliminates between children Of the Dis
trict of Columbia and is therefore not
uniform in its operation.
The court should pass on the cOnstitu-
tionality of this statute. and have made
these few suggestions hoping that they
may be useful In bringing about relief for
the unfortunate children of our city.

Blood-curdling yells of Murder "Po-

and tumble followed. which finally ended
in Kendrick leaving the house for the
balance Of the day. Thursday afternoon
he returned, again demanded the return

intimation that he was not desired about
the premises.
This didn't suit kendrick at all. Grab

everything in sight from chinaware to

At this juncture he turned on Mrs. Kidd

produced on the instant. He repeated the
threats, asserting it was his intention to
Kill her and every one else in the house.
1t ended in the cries for help and the
mans arrest.
Judge Kimball found verdict of
guilty. In default of a real estate bond
of 500 the defendant was committed to
prison for six months on the first charge
1t was decided to enter a continuance in
the second charge because of the intima-
ton that the bond in the first would be
furnished after Kendrick had been in
custody long enough to make up his mind
to keep the peace.
He will probably be released within the
next week or ten days.

Chauffeur Pays for Fast Pace and

Charged with violating the speed limit
and Of using an automobile without the
consent of the owner, James Sanders,
nineteen years old, colored, employed in
garage near 9Th and D streets, was
adjudged guilty this morning by Judge
Mullowny in the Police Court on both
