LYNCHING. Three Moonshiners Shot to Death at Coffeeville by Angry Alabamians, It is reported that three white men, George Brunson, Charles Smith and Lee Brown, were lynched Sunday at Coffeevill in Clark county, Ala. Coffeeville is twenty- five miles from the railroad, and the report was brought to Whatley, a railroad sta- tion, by a man from Coffeeville. ‘The victims of the lynchers were mem- bers of the notorious Meacham gang cf moonshiners and desperadoes, who were driven into Mississippi last year after a fight in which ten of the Meachamites were killed. Recently the members of the gang have been returning one by one. About ten days ago Murphy Fink, who was one of th leaders in driving’ them out, was assassi- nated, He lived long enough to proclaim Brunson, Smith and Brown as his murder- ers. ‘The men were arrested and jailed and Sunday the citizens took .mem out and shot them to death. TRIPL 5 FOR FUTURE REFERENCE, A Yawning Pigeon Hole Receives the Free Library Bill. Stock Arguments Against a ant District Measure — Still Another Bill Withdrawn. Import- The House yesterday afternoon effectual- ly shelved the free public library bill by referring it to the committee on public buildings and grounds, fron$which it is not likely to emerge, or, if it does come forth, it will be only to meet a solid wall of ob- Jection. The reference of this bill to this committee was brought about as the result of Mr Cannon’s amendment, and, the ques- tion having been opened, the enemies of the bill were quick to perceive their op- portunity and to avail themselves of a chance to give the bill its death blow. After the House had adopted Mr. Can- non’s amendment providing that the library shall not be located in the new city post office, but in a building to be provided by the Commissioners of the District ade- quate to the accommodation of not less than 75,000 volumes, Mr. Milliken of Maine, who entertained the idea that a building was to be constructed for the purpose, moved to limit the cost of it to $100,000. This precipitated a discussion which in- cluded the arguments made earlier in the day, and much of the ground which had been gone over wis again traversed. The point was raised by several members, including Mr. Snodgrass, Mr. Powers and others, that the District should bear the whole cost of the support of the Hbrary. = Heard gave one answer to all, and “The law, as it at prerent exists—the law passed by Congress, of course, because the District could not establish any law on the subject—provides that the expenditures for District governmental purposes shall be borne one-half by the taxpayers of the District and one-half by the treasury of the general government. Now, I am not here to argue whether that was a correct basis of apportionment or not. I recognize, however, the fact that it is the law as it now exists and has existed for a number of years past; that this principle is applied to every other District expenditure; and I see no reason why tho rule should be varied and in this case the whole expense be borne by the people of the District instead of being apportioned on the same basis as expenses of every other kind. believe that this ts a legitimate and necessery expenditure to be made by Congress of the money subject to our “ propriation under the existing law. I not think it is right that this general law, the provisions of which operate with ref- erence to every other appropriation for every other expenditure of the District, should be changed with reference to this particular expenditure, and the people of the District compelled to pay out of their own pockets the whcle expense of estab- lishing a public tibrary here. I earnestly hope t the judgment of the House may be taken on the bill without unnecessary delay; that gentlemen will express their views on the subejct, and that we will have @ vote to know what form the bill is to have if it be passed at all.” Clearly Expressed. Mr. Dunn of New Jersey, in the course of his remarks, said: “‘When the compari- son is made that the people of some town in Massachusetts or in my state erect a library for themselves, and therefore that the District of Columbia should do the same, that illustration will not fit the case at all, because the people there remain there, except on their own volition, while the people who are to be the beneficiaries of this bill are gathered from every sec- tion of the country and will return to their homes at the expiration of their public eervice. Now, if the people of the District of Columbia pay ail the expenses of this library they will be paying them largely for your son or mine, or your neighbor's son, who comes here to get employment fiom the government, and who will use this library in improving their minds. It would be unfair and unjust and against the principle upon which the system was created of a joint payment of the expenses of the District government.” Mr. Boatner also opposed saddling the whole cost on the District, and said such a proposition is illogical, in view of the rangement existing between the govel ment and the District for sharing ex- penses. After some further debate Mr. Powers’ amendment was agreed to, directing the whole cost of the library to be borne by the District. Then Mr. Dockery of Mis- sourl, who had sald little in debate, but was waiting in ambush for the bill with a club, came forth and moved to refer the bill to the committee on public buildings and grounds, which was done, Mr. Heard then called up the bill pro- viding for the renewal of charters of cor- porations. Several members held that, un- der the bill, the Washington Gas Light Company or any street railway company could renew its charter indefinitely, and an effort by Mr. Hepburn of Iowa to limit this privilege, excluding gas and electric light companies and street railway com- panies, brought on a discussion, which was ended by Mr. Heard withdrawing the bill and bringing the session to a close, which ended District day. ———_+ e+ —___ Some Pointers for Mr. Burns. From the New York Commercial Advertiser, Mr. John Burns, the champion of the English labor trades unions, is a man of great natural ability and he deserves credit for having risen to eminence, handicapped as he is by a want of that training which, laugh at it as successful money-getters may, no amount of natural ability can com- pensate for. Mr. Burns has spent his life in or about London, which to a man who keeps his eyes open is in itself an educa- tion. But great though the world’s me- tropolis is, forty years there does not qual- ify a man to pass judgment on America after a forty-eight hours’ residence. Mr. Burns began his address at Cooper Union on Monday night by announcing that he was here to help confederate, with- out regard to nationality, all men who earn their living by honest labor. On the face of it this is an assumption that there are men who labor dishonestly, or that men who do not actually handle the severer im. plements of toil are barred from the frate: nity which he proposes to otganize. His trouble, like that of many honest labor leaders, is that he assumes, and without show of reason, that men who use their brains without using a heavier tool than the pen are not honest toilers, and that the employer, who plans, does not work quite as hard as and more effectively in his way than the man who plows or delves. Mr. Burns is right—with limitations—but the danger to himself ts that he will persist in measuring American cloth by an English yardstick. The yardstick may be all right, but it presupposes an agreement on both sides as to its linear quantity. He pre- pared himself for his Cooper Union speech by a visit to the slums of the East Side and another visit to our great hotels and the pal- aces on Sth avenue. From this hasty in- spection he infers that the workingman is worse off here than in England.
