Murder Will Always Out.

w Ildl lldSI tiIOu uOuS liz
voice of thy brothers blood cri-
eth unto me from the ground
was the demand of Jehovah fol-
lowing the first murder after the
creation.
And it is ever the same.
Always there is some clue,
some little incident, or accident
that tells the tale.
Sol Lucas Johnson murdered
Elston Brewer with an axe, then
tied heavy stone to the body
and threw it in the canal.
Hidden from mortal eye; no
one to miss young Brewer, no
one to search for him. The tale
that he had gone to Memphis, or
perchance changed his mind and
gone to New Orleans, sounded
good, and if that little motor
boat with suction pump had
not passed the very spot where
lay the lifeless body of Brewer,
and brought it to the surface,
no one might have been the wis
er soon.
But there is always something
in the way.
It was no miracle that the AL
mighty performed when he ac-
cused Cain with the murder of
Abel. It is the law Of compen-
sation, the law of retribution,
the law of nature.
There is much in the murder
of young Brewer to remind one
of the first murder. Cain slew
Abel because his offerings had
found favor, and because he was
the more prosperous.
Abel had been good to Cain
and had divided his flock with
him.
SO had Brewer been good tC
Johnson and divided his boat
with him, taking for the trip
down the river, furnishing the
funds and providing food for
the journey.
But Brewer had money and
Johnson had none. Johnson
wanted to go on to New Orleans,
and Johnson wanted to turn
back. Johnson became morose
and sulky. He nursed his i'm
aginary grievance until it was
an easy matter for him to think
he had been wronged, and quite
as easy a matter for him to do
murder for money.
And his brothers blood cried
from the deep.
And the same thing has cauS-
ed almost every murder since
the dawn of time. Envy, ieal-
ousy, avarice.
The only thing about murder
now is that the punishment has
changed.
To those who grieve at the
consequences of this awful
crime. it looks as if nothing eX-
eept death will mete sufficient
punishment for the murder of
Brewer.
But that was not the punish
ment the Almighty made for
Cain. After Cain had confessed,
he said to him, And now art
thou cursed from the earth,
which hath opened her mouth to
receive thy brothers blood from
thy hand. When thou tillest
the ground it shall henceforth
yield unto thee her strength; a
fugitive and a vagabond shalt
thou be in the earth
And when Cain suggested that
men would kill him if he was
sent forth thus, the Lord said,
therefore whatsoever slayeth
Cain vengeance shall be taken on
him seven fold"
But no matter what punish
ment man may devise or what
may follow the commission of
crime, let those who stain their

caucus of House Democrats met this
afternoon. There is a coterie Of pa
tronage-hungry Democrats who have
suddenly decided that they do not want
the customs service reorganized, as
once approved by the Democratic House
and ordered by President Taft, and now
there IL a stampede to save jobs for
customs officials in all sections of the
country.
Acting IN accordance with the provi-
sions OF rider to an appropriation bill
passed during the Sixty-second Con-
gress. and originating in the House.
President Taft ordered general re-
organization of the Customs Service and
the abandonment or consolidation of
many small ports Under the proposed
rearrangement the Georgetown port
viii 60 in the Maryland district ard
would become a minor port.
This Is true of other small ports.
Many Of the small ports would go out
OF business. and the fat jobs appertain-
ing thereto along with them, while 9TH
ers would be made SUPPORTS with re-
duced forces.
This, means a cut into Democratic
patronage and a howl has gone up for
q postponement Of the reorganization.
Senator Fletcher and Congressman
Clark of Florida have bills pending to
postpone the Taft reorganization and
an effort will be made today to get the
matter before the caucus. The House
leaders, 1t is understood. are opposed to
caucus action at this time, and il The
issue is sidetracked the reorganization
will become effective within few
weeks.

L|NDBERGH SCORES
CURRENCY MEASURE
Says Bill Has No Direct ReIa-
ton to People Except in
Boards Creation.

Congressman Lindbergh Of Minnesota.
a Progressive member of the House
Committee on Banking and Currency.
added his name today to the list of
critics. of the Administrators currency
reform bill. Mr.. Lindbergh doesn't see
the measure as one in the peoples in
terest. and he thinks the banks are
the chief benefciaries under the pro-
posed legislation.
The Bull Moose member of the House
committee issued the following state
ment:
'lf enacted in its present form, the
bill would deal with the banking in
terests only. 1t has no direct rela-
ton to the people except in the cres-
ton OF national reserve board. BY
the terms Of the bill this board would
have the power to loan upon certain
conditions 500. 000, 900 of currency Great
ed by the Government. These loans
would be made to the Federal reserve
banks bs IS. at % rate of interest to be fiTsd sd
banks becoming members Of the Fed
eral reserve banks would be able to
borrow this money.
mo provision Is made as to the rates
of interest that the member banks
would pay, and what the banks would
not been provided for. The bill simply
proposes to add to the currency of the
country a volume Of money which 1t
would give to the control of the banks
The Government would control the
printing and engraving of this money
and the banks would control the dis
trihution Of It."
Democratic members of the House
Banking and Currency Committee held
an initial meeting Yesterday afternoon.
but did not discuss the essentials of the
bill. which probably will be formally
introduced in the Senate and House
tomorrow.
The first problem to be solved by the
House committee Is publicity Of its
sessions. The Lindbergh resolutions for
an '1open door policy while the cur
rency bill is under consideration In

animous approval of the Bulkley SUBJ
committee, and now awaits action by

Astute political observers In the Dis
