A Serious Predicament. Judge Bradley's holding i the murder case tried befere him, inte the of January 15 which reduce ath penalty in certain cases, leaves District in a most peculiar situation w to the punishment involved in sideration of certain pendin; According to the dictum urt a marked contradiction exisis four of the act. The first clause ection expressly provides that ine act 1 not affect pending ca: or crimes committed prior to its passage, or indictrrents found and untried at the tim the Iaw passed upon the statute books ‘This is im direct conformity with tha cause of the constitution, paragraph 3. section ®, article 1, which provides thai bill of attainder or ex post facto law shall be passed.” But the second clause of the section of the law expressly provides that juries may apply the iaw in all such cases. In other words, the s 2 firs: declares that it shail not be retroactive and then declares that it shall. This coniradic tion, Judge Bradley holds, operates as a repeal of all the penalties for capital crimes committed prior to the act and in conse- quence the cases now pending in court are affected and the criminals, if found gutit of murder in the first desree, may Ko free It w plainly not the intention of Con- to cveate so absurd and at the same a situation. The bill which originated in the House. be- by Representative Curtis of ew York, who is not a lawyer, but who I striving for twenty years to se- legisiation both state and national death penalty.

Paternalism Gover ment. Patern ism in Government is a phrase some of our public men to expre oval of measures invoking th government in mutters rprise and bearing. They de- !t savers of monarchy. Bills ex- nding government aid to expositions here and there, and bills appropriating money ly planting seeds to farmers the vic- S of floods and protracted drouths, have been opposed on the ground that no author- ity exists in the Constitution for such en- actments. The Mississippi river ts now at flood tide. ‘The levees have given way in a number ot laces, and life and property are more or less in peril the whole length of the long valley. Heavy losses have already been sustained. The local authorities are exert. ing themselves to the utmost, but are una- ble to cope with the whole difficulty. ‘The general government therefore steps in and bears a helping hand. Its steamers, sup- ported for lgh:-house and for dredging way ! ses. It is equally clear | having been judicially lifferently, it is the duty of deciare at once in positive purposes, have been employed carrying people and their possessions to safe places, nts are now on the way to shelter © of the unfortunates who may be tem- and t | porarily without other shelter. Is there anything reprehensible or dan- serous to American institutions about this? The strict constructionist insists that there is. Those steamers are manned and coaled at the government's expense, and for the pury of doing government work. The saving of private property is no part of at they were designed to do. The same ue of the tents. They were bought with the public money for the purpose of shel- ing the government's soldiers, and not individual use. And yet how objection- © the argument sounds in the circum- stances! As a matter of fact those steamers were never better employed than at present. Those tents in sheltering American citi- as who have been worsted in a battle ist with the elements are performing as legiti- mate functions as though they sheltered men in uniform. The government that would stand at such a time upon any con- struction of its powers which would prevent the rendering of such atd would be unfit to ex'st. “Paternalism” in many cases counts.” it makes the people love their government. It presents their government to them in a light that gives them an everyday idea of its power and utility. Ambassador Hay ought to be good au- thority at this time. He has sung of use- fulness even for the angels. May it not be said of the general government, therefore, ihat this responding to the people's needs, and helping them with their own, is “a durned sight better business than ranting about a throne?’ ————_-_++2s____ Two Good Bills. ‘The calendars of bcth the House and Sen- ate are filling up rapidly with measures of lecal importance and should the spirit of general legislation descend upon Con- gress the District may, perhaps, secure some very desirable results. Senator Mc- Millan took an early opportunity to intro- duee in the form of separate bills two items that failed of final incorporation in the Dis- triet appropriation act. These are the bill providing for the completion of the aque- duct tunnel and its reservoir and that pro- viding for the maintenance of the free pub- lic library created by Congress last June a3 a municipal institution and as a supple- ment of the educational system of the Dis- trict. These items were dropped from the budget at the eleventh hour, when time was a factor of the greatest impertance 1 when it was practically impossible to secure for any project, however worthy, an adequate degree of consideration. The abandonment by the conferees in nowi8e reflected upon their merit and they stand teday entitled to prompt and affirmative action by the Senate, which originally in- ccrporated them into the appropriation bill and fought for their retention. CH&irman MeMillan has done well to present them in bill form at this juncture and it is to be hoped that he will find an early opportunity to secure their passage by the Senate. —— Doubtless we shall yet have a presidential campaign in which the managers are suf- ficiently enterprising to provide kineto- scopic equipments that will enable the pub- lic afterward to see the tarilling scenes in the vicinity of the stump or the rear plat- form of the train. ——__-+ + «_____ A street-railway company in a Pennsyl- vania town has issued an order that no employe shall be allowed to wear a beard or mustache. This seems to be an un- called for effort to further irritate the pepulists against corporations. soe The manner in which pride goes before a fall was never more vividly shown than by the earnestness with which Corbett is beseeching Fitzsimmons to repeat the dose as a persenal favor. ——_ — ++2 Again today the force on the city post office building numbered only one hundred and eighty-five men. ———__ + += —___ The Prince de Chimay has some diffi- culty in becoming the unknewa husband of a famous wife. 2 0 SHOOTING STARS.

Te gentle melodies our hearts keep time from day to day, As we lull to sleep the sorrows that cried out the winter through.
