Robbing blind man is commonly
regarded as about the meanest crime
person can commit, but stealing the

run it pretty close.
Some time ago all Italy associated
itself with project to keep lamp
continually burning on Dante's tomb
at Ravenna, and recently the flame
was kindled with great ceremony in
the presence Of representatives of all
the chief towns in the country.
But the other day 1t was found to
have gone out. The publication of the
news caused Indignation, which was
intensified by the discovery that some.
one had stolen the oil from the sacred
lamp New York Sun.

Critic Points Out Alleged Weak
Spots in Builders Bill.

"A man can't build pigeon house or
mend his stable or fence If the so-called
builders license bill is enacted into Law" !"
declared a delegate to the Central Labor
Union at it's weekly session last night
In Typographical Temple. 'In order to
have any minor work done about his
place he will have to call in licensed
builder and pay for the work at any rate
the licensed builder may nominate. To
pass the pending bill will be to create
the rankest kind of monopoly in the

Samuel De Nedrey, secretary of the
central body, also voiced his opposition
to the measure and declared 1t placed the
homes of the peope at the mercy of "a
handful of licensed monopolists.''
Following a general discussion of the
bill. In which it was roundly denounced
by many delegates as un-American, the
Central Labor Union decided to have its
legislative committee join with the Build
ing Trades Mechanics Council and other
organizations in lighting the measure
before Congress.

service to he he'd under the auspices OF

Futures Barred.
Mr.. Davis said that while Governor of
Arkansas he had advocated law. which
was finally enacted. for the suppression
of all dealings in futures purely within
the state. and the provisions of that act
were practically similar to those proposed
in his bin before the Senate. In the lat
ter measure the use of the postal system
as we'll as of the telegraph and telephone
was forbidden. which he deemed FEAST
tiOns.
He spoke especially of the baneful ef
fects of the sale of futures on the price
of cotton. although his bill had reference
to all products of the soil.
God has blessed the southland as He
has no other portion OF this great COM
monwealth,' said Mr.. Davis. "He has
given us in soil and climate IA corner on
the production of this great staple. and 1t
is to prevent the gambler from despoiling
our agricultural people. not only of the
south, but Of the west as we'll, that l ask
for the passage of this bill.
The transactions on the New York ex-
change, he said. involve speculation on
ten times as much cotton as is actually
produced in the south.
''The whole transaction he said lis
of worst kind, and no exchange should be
gambling game"
This. he added, lis gambling in the

REFERS TO CARE OF INFANTS
MYRON N. PARKER SUBMITS
THE DRAFT OF THE BILL.
William G. Baldwin Writes Regard
ing the Family Desertion and
Non-Support Law.

Myron NJ. Parker of this city today sub
mitted to Chairman Smith of the House
District committee the draft Of bill to
provide for the care of illegitimate in
Foundlings or st. AIMS Infant Asylum.
and asks that 1t be referred to- Judge
DeLacy of the Juvenile Court for report.
Under the present custom" Mr.. Parker
says. 'illegitimate infants are left with
colored nurses. who give them little or no
care. resulting usually in death. DR.. Sow
ers and I think that all these infants
should 90 either to the Washington Hos
pital for Foundlings or to st. AIMS
where in either case they would receive
careful attention and proper care"
William c. Baldwin of 1415 21st street
has written letter to Chairman Smith
urging the passage of the amendment to
the family desertion and non-support law
which is now pending before that COM
mittee.
Mr., Baldwin says that 1.-The necessity
for this amendment arose out of an un-
expected decision of the late Judge Nc
Comas that the law as it stands did not
apply to illegitimate children. as we sup
posed it did when it was drawn.
Need Of the Provision.
Judge DeLacy so interpreted it until
his opinion was overruled by Judge Nc
Comas. The need of this provision is ap-
parent and an amendment for this pur-
pose was introduced at the last session
of Congress, but, with SO many other
desirable measures, failed to pass.
I'm the meantime. in consultation with
District Attorney Baker, the present form
of the bill amending the law. which is
simpler was suggested by him. You may
net know of the great benefit which the
law has been to the community. Under
it there was collected during the fiscal
year 1907. through Judge DeLacy's court.
