The People and Prison Reform.

1t is TO be hoped that the mass meeting arranged
for tonight at Carnegie Hall by the Woman's De-
partment Of the National Civic Federation will be
well attended. The prisons need reform, but not
half much the pubic's attitude on this sub
ject Meetings Of this nature will help.
Enlightened legislation and intelligent admins
traton can do much But until the public is able
and willing to cooperate with the authorities in
forcing the demand for better things for the prisons
and the unfortunates who have TO go to them
prison reform will be of slow growth.

The Coming Tower
THE CRY OF THE SLEEPLESS.

With no dlsrespect Mrs. Brownnss heirs
Do We hear the carpet-beaters, = my neghbors'
Do YOU hear them WELD their sticks?
They are making morning hdeous with their labor
And they wake me up at six.
The Young girls are beating on the Smyrnas;
The young boys arc tapping at the rugs;
The anitor is jolting at the furnace;
And it drives me nearly bugs.
But the next-door carpets, o my neighbors,
They are beaten cruelty,
And long for some bayonets and sabrcs
In this country OF the free.

Federal Judge Wright OF District q
Columbia May be Impeached.

Washington, Feb. 26.-Serious and
sensational charges against Justice
Daniel Thew Wright of the supreme
court OF the District Of Columbia were
filed at the White House today by
Wade Hampton Cooper, president Of
the Union Savings and United States
Savings bank OF this city, formerly Of
Marion county, who declares his abil-
ity If impeachment proceedings are
brought to substantiate the charges
which he itemizes carefully, giving
names. dates and other particulars in
great detail.
Mr.. Cooper asserts that Justice
Wright Is untitled for his position and
ought to he impeached without delay.
He asserts that his experiences with
this justice caused him TO begin an
investigation. the conclusions of
which are the presentation Of many
pages of typewriter matter alleging
moral, mental and temperamental un-
fitness to remain on the bench.
Officials at the White House were
so astounded with the details of the
charges that they refuse to make
comment. Secretary Tumulty, il is
known. will forward the charges to
the department of justice for what
ever examination Attorney General
McReynolds may see tit TO have made.
IL Will be the duty OF the department
of Justice, ii is stated, to forward
the charges with official data or in
formation to the proper committee of
congress. If ii is finally determined
that impeachment proceedings should
be started i'm that body. The formal
placing OF the charges is the begin
ming OF long fight on Justice Wright,
IL was declared today that he has
many enemies i'm the District and this
Is generally admitted. 1t was Justice
Wright who sentenced Samuel Com
pers, John Mitchell and other Off
Labor for contempt of court i'm con-
junction with the case OF the
Bucks Stove and Rrange Company
The final adjudication OF this case is
now before the supreme court of the
United States.
Justice Wright was appointed to
the supreme bench of the District of
Columbia November II. 1908, and is
now serving his l1th year. He was
named by President Roosevelt, having
been backed by influential friends of
President Mckinley.
Mr.. Cooper belongs to the we'll
known family of bankers Of that
name. there being five brothers. with

IMMIGRATION BILL FIGHT.
Charges Made That Transportation
Companies Opposing Clause Which
cuts Down Their Rebates.

Washington, Feb. 27.-That the At
'dht'c shipping and railroad interests
are making a strong attack on the
clause IN the Burnett immigration bill,
which prohibits the payment OF re-
bates to steamship companies bv rail-
roads, for immigrant traffic was the
charge made today by Representative
Manahan of Minnesota. Manahan
said he received this information from
Senator Johnson of Maine and add
ed the representatives of these steam
ship companies, am told worked to
secure an amendment to the bill to
save their lines this money which
the heads Of companies admitted in
hearings was money they used to
work up immigration business abroad.
These steamship companies are for
hidden to advertise for immigrants
but the railroads in this country
make up common fund allowing one
to four dollars per head for each i'm
migrant brought in, according to
mileage involved, and this money is
sent abroad to men representing the
steamship lines"

TEXAN WANTS WAR.

Austin, Texas. Feb. 26.-A request
to know whom the United States
government now recognizes as the
constituted authority i'm Mexican
states bordering on the Rio Grande"
went forward late today to President
Wilson from Gov. q. Il. Colquitt Of
Texas. The request was made for the
purpose OF demanding the surrender
of the "abductors and murderers Of
Clemente Versara. Texas citizen.
executed by Mexican federals."
Then, apparently answering the
question himself, the governor asked
consent Of the United states in view
of the condition of revolution and an
archy i'm these border States, to send
rangers across the Rio Grande i'm pur-
faction when they cross into Texas
and commit crimes.
IL insist MIR. President, that Texas
as sovereign state is entitled tn
protect Texas citizens of the border
from an undesirable condition like
that which now exists concluded the
message.
Earlier i'm the day Gov. Colquitt had
put in motion an investigation of the
Veragra incident through state chan
nels. The first result was information
from the Webb county records assert
ing positively that the island where
Vergara Is said to have been seizetl
belongs to Texas.
Gov. Colquitt conferred with Adju-
tant General Hutchings of the Tcxa:
National Guard and intimation wai
given that should the Texas range,
force prove insufficient to protect
trains along the border the National
Guard would be dispatched for tina,
purpose.

From The Daily Item, Feb. 27.
What came near being disas-
trous fire broke out last night few
minutes before 10 o'clock In the
building occupied by the garage oper-
ated by v. X. Dinkins. The prompt
arrival OF the fre depart ment and
their good work together with the
snow on the buildings was all which
saved the garage and several other
buildings from being burned to the
ground.
The ire was discovered by Mr.. X.
@. Scarborough. who gave the alarm.
At this time IL had evidently been
smouldering i'm the building for some
time. for II broke out through the
walls at the south end of the build
Ing about the time II was discovered.
The fire department reached the scene
In a few seconds and promptly APP
piled water through the steamer,
which gave good pressure To- the
streams. Mr.. w. l.. Boyle's residence
In very close on one side and the
Booth Boyle Live stock stable is
very close on the other. but the fire
iaddies prevented either of these
places from catching. although Mr..
Boyies residence was somewhat
scorched from the heat.
The fire department also had hard
work preventing the fire from burn
ing the garage down to the ground,
stopping II from spreading any fur
ther after they = arrived. Only the
roof and walls of the upper story
were destroyed. the lower story of
the building remaining intact.
Four cars stored In the loft of the
building were destroyed. They were
the property OF w. r. Hall OF Florida
DIR. p. b. o'Neiil. DR.. F. X. Holman
and Sam Green. None OF the cars
were very valuable ones.
Mr.. Dinkins stated this morning
that he had $1,000 insurance on the
garage which probably covered his
loss by fire. The building was owned
by Mr. w. B. Boyle. who stated that
he had $500 insurance on the
building. which had cost s2,4OO In
construction.
Many words of praise have beer
heard on the streets today because o
the efficient work of the firemen at tn,
fire last night. The fire was a hard one
TO handle and the snow made IL ex
tremeiy difficult for the department e
get their equipment in line. but al
this was done as IL the boys had beer
