The criminahmocks at the law when the penalty has no terror for

Sentences recently imposed by the judges in General Sessions
hve been ~gatfyngly strong. Quite a number of the newly con-
ncted men brought before them have been recognized as old offend
ers. In some cases they were men upon whom a previous sentence
hid been suspended for the purpose of giving them a chance to
Nhorm and to redeem their manhood. TO such men a long period

mems Association stated that if private cab stands were abolished
the association drivers would give a good service at a rate of thirty
cents a mile.
On the face of it such a contention ought to be easy Of settle
mcnt on a just basis. If the taxeab owners wish to charge eighty
cents for the first mile, let them do so, bt at the same time grant
and assure to the independents an equal right to establish and main
tain their service at thirty cents a mile. Then leave the pulic free
to pay its money and take its choice.
Recently a foreign critic complained that, while in this city he
could ride twenty miles in a tranway for FIVE cents, he had to pay
a dollar to cross a street in a cab. We ought to give our visitors ,

BREAD AND BEEF PRICES.

- ONCERNTNG the report OF the British Board OF
Trade that statistics gathered in a large number
Of American cities, as compared with those OF
L-l-N~n-l British cities, show That both the rate Of wages and
NsNSoS the cost of living are higher in this country, there
W. will be u variety Of views. Protecuonists will
draw from them one conclusion, free traders will
draw another. But there is one point made clear in the report that
merits consideration outside of theories Of political economy.
There are obvious causes why wages are higher in America than
n Great Britain. Plain reasons could be given why rents should be
higher here than there. But why should beef and bacon, wheat and
corn, apples and potatoes, the general food supplies of workngmen,
be 80 per cent. dcarer in this country where the bulk OF il is pro-
duced than in that country where IL has to be largely imported across
thousands Of miles of sea?
Prices Of all staple articles IN the markets of the world are sub
ject'to many forces, but the dominant ones can be found if care
fully sought out. In this case there appears to be something other
than the impartial operation of on economic law that makes bread
from.Amencan wheat and bacon from American hogs cheaper abroad
than at home. ILL
