A coRREsPO! from Santa Barbara, California, writes us to ask during what hours postmasters are obliged by law to keep their offices open. The law speci- flos that a postoffice shall be kept open during the usual business hours of tho community in whichit is located, our correspondent states, the Burbara postoflice is kept closed during the only hours when workingmen can use it, reliof can be secured by complaining to the United States postoflice inspector for the district in which the town is lo- eated.

There is more than one objection to such a plan, but the most im- portant is that doubtless Mrs, Logan would regard with disfavor a project for forcing upon the public, as a sort of charitable makeshift, her dead husband’s contribution to the history of the re- bellion, which she wmust believe every ton patriotic American ought to possess for its inherent worth, he voluntary gifts of u generous people will be more grate- ful 1o her. THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: TUESDAY, The Opening of the lm:l-mmrn The twenticth regular session of the Nebraska iegislature opens to-day in Lineoln and bids fair to prove one of the most interesting and exciting ever held in the state, Once more the representa- tives of tha poople of this commonwealth will be confronted by the cohorts of cor- porate monopol® on the floors of the two houses and besieged in lobby and cor- ridors by the tools and corruptionists of great corporations. The two months which have elapsed since the verdict was given by voters at the polls have been em- ploged by the railroad emissarics in at- tempting to influenco members elect to betray their sacred trusts, The opening of the legislatare will prove how well they have sueceeded. Much legislation demanded by the state will be passed upon by the present legis- lature. The question of the repeal of the bogus railroad commission will doubtles come up for debate and decision. The two yours of trial which this moasure concerved in frand and roshod through in detiance of tho expressed vote of the peo- nle of the state, has received haye con- vinced the public of its utter failure tg remedy the wrongs trom which they are suffering. Utterly useless tn any class of citizens cxcept thoso interested in corporations, it nds in the way of the ennctmeut of laws which wonld accomplish what it has failed to sceure. Among the most im- portant questions with wh ture will be asked to deal are thos ing to municipal government, judic stricting, revenue law amend s in the procedure of our courls and in the election laws, The disqu ing topic of prokibitory legislation is also with the propo- n for a constitutional convention. Not the least important issuc which will wrly - the session is the of a United States scnator to succeed Charles H. Van Wyck The choico is of national interest. Tor six years this state has been revre- sented at Washington by a scnator who has commanded attention and inspived a wholesome respect among the jobbers and corporation cormorants who infest the ional eapital. General Van Wyck comes beforo the present legislatare as a candidate for re-election, who bases his claims upon fuithful sery! and stands pledged by the records of the honest performance in the futur endorsed by an overwhelming majority of all votes cast upon the senatorial issue at the last election,and if pledges amount to anything he will be supported by a majority of senators and representatives elected by their constituents to vote and work for his return to the senate. Still in Politics, The railroads are out of polities be- tween campaigns, but their interest revives with each election and glows with fever heat when the session opens. The same old gang of sharks and bar- nacles have once more assembled at Lin. coln to grease the way for favorable legislation on behalf of their cornorate ters, The member of the third house with his mouth full of promises of rebate and his pocket overflowing with trip d annual passes. elbows his fellow em- ploye who shouts londly for ‘“‘straight goods' and the dear old party whenever party patriotism can be conveniently used as a cover for corporation con- i The same old “0il rooms' to te the path to the votes of leus- are once more in operation awd of the ‘‘stecrers’ have a r look derived from long practice at legislative sessions. Railroad super- intendents, general and local attorn and town lot agents ¢an be met on ever hand. The railroads arc not out of poli- tics at Lincoln, however much they may have drawn within their headquarters clsewhere. An Improbable Story. The statement of a Cincinnati paper, supported by what ma ar to some to be convineing circumstantial evidence, that a coalition has been formed between Halstead of the I-Guzelle, Me- Lean of the and Watterson of the Louisville Journal, to hoom Blaine and slaughter Cleveland, cannot be accepted as credible without ther and better evidenc The obstacle to be- lief in such a union is Mr, McLean, An alliance between Halstead and Watter- son, in the mterest of Blaine, would not be necessarly ineredible. Although the former would naturally be supposed to have the first interest in Sherman, as he professedly has had hitherto, it is con- vable that he might sacritice his homa ndidate for the republican le: 84 if ne believed the latter ) much the better chance of securmg the nomination in 1888, Mr. Huastead is politic, and it is very likely that the con- stituency of s paper is more largely Blaine than Sherman. The indications are that the friendship of the republicans of Ohio for the Maine man has not diminished during the past two years, and 1t was enthusiastic to a gree exceeded in no 5 mn the last national campaign. Sherman will undoubtedly b gation of his state in the next nation convention, but whether it will be of any greater advantage to him than hereto- fore is by no means certain, Much will depend upon whether Mr, Charles Foster shall again be the controlling spirit in it, As to Mr. Watterson, there can be no doubt of his present dispositiou to slaugh- ter Cleveland, The columns of his pape testify to this almost daily. Tho admin- istration has no more relentless erit than the Courier-Journal. That pap refuses to regard the president as a dem- ocrat. Nor has Mr. Watterson hesitated to proclaim that as between Cleveland and astalwartrepublican “we should pre- fer to take our chance of the future in a square hand-to-hand fight, on principle, with the republican.” Having such a feeling toward the president, and beliey- ing his renomination to be inevitable, it is not difticult to believe t terson wight be a party to an alliance for tie defeat of Cleveland by his former antag- onist, justitymg his course on the ground that only 1 this way is it possible to ulti- mately place the government under gen- uine demoeratie control. It is not prob- able that in the region dominated by Mr, Watterson he would suffer materially in prestige or otherwise by such a course. But there are at least two consider- ations which repel the idea of Mclean being a party to such an al- liance. ~In the first place he would have to overcome a personal hostility much more bitter and inveterate thun his antagonism to the administra- tion, which at the worst may be only an cggravatad form of displeasure. An nlh ance of Halstead and McLean, for a po litieal or any other purpose, suggests a parallel of any nearly impossible occur- rence. Itisas much out of the ques! a8 uny event conceivabla that could be brought about only by preternatural cir- cumstances. Morcover, in such a union the chief of the Enguirer would neces- sarily play a subordinate part to the clief of the Commercial-Gazolte, and from every pomt of view this would be dam- ging to the former. There are other features of this sensational statoment which proclaim 1t incredible, as the asso- ciation of Dana and Whitelaw Reid, but connecting McLean with the imaginary albance is alone suflicient to condemn it as a canard, The English Situation, The new yoar opons with the political sitnation in England so seriously compli cated as to perplex the wisest, and the only certain conclusion to bo drawn is that the ovents of the not remoto future will be exceedingly interesting. It is evident that the refusal of Lord Harting ton to take a place in the tory cabine 13 o greatdisappointment to that party, and has thrown its leader into something of a quandary as to what shall next be done. On the other hand it has had the effectof reviving the hopes of th here is, however, no appet ny dizposition on the part of sbury to surrender, in order to allow the formation of a coalition cabinet. Ho will retain his hold on the premiership. Before the dechination of Hurtington, Salisbury announced that in the event of lissrefusal to accept oflice and to guar antee to the government the support of the unionists, he wotld dissolve parlia- ment and appeal to the country on tho sume issue as at the last election, with the addition to his platform of planks in favor of adopting new procedure rules the precedence of an English local gov- ernment bill over one for the govern- ment of Ireland, a vigorous forcign policy and moderate estimates If this was intended as menace to unionists it entwely faled of its objoct. Nothing has transpired nee the refusal of Hartington to be drawn into a tory alliance to indicate whether or not the premier is of the same mind now as he professed to be before that event. The holidays being over the next move of the governinent will probably soon develop. Itis not unlik that Salisbury may regard the present a peenlinly auspicions time, in view of the unsettled and somew threatening condition of European affairs, to appeal to the countr; on a unior atform promising a vig- policy. It is a curious example of mconsistency that the tories should profess to have so much faith in 0 as to believe that “in the event of Engls ml becoming involved in war, or be ously threatened, Irish- men would putaside their own grievances and their demands for redr nd enthu- siastically rally to the defense agninst s common cnemy.

The case of Mrs. Rox; n known in York as the “Herkiwe murderess,” has been exceeded by few others in eriminal anuals in the extent of popular intercst it has commanded in New Yor Druse muzder her husband in December, 1884, literally butehering him, and involved her daugh ter and nephew in the crime. She was convicted and senteneed to be hanged, but on the day fixed for the execcution, Decembe , Governor Hill granted areprieve of sixty days. Since the day of ler sentence pron women in parts of the state and & nwinber of cler gymen have interested themscelves in the unfortunate woman’s behalf with great zeal and the governor had reccived many vetitions urging that the death sentenc: be commuted to imprisonment for hfe. This urged not chiefly on the ground of sex, but because there were believed to be extenuating ecircumstances in the harsh eruelty Mrs, Druse had suflerca at the hands of her husband. The object of the governor in granting the re- prieve is understood to be to place upon the legislature the responsibility of dis- criminating, if public opinion demand it, between the penalty for murder by a man and murder by a woman, There is a very general sentiment against inflicting the death penalty on woman. Doubtless a very large n jority of those who belicy that death should be the penalty for murder would exempt woman from c: ital punishment, The aversion is stinetive, and when the question is pre- nted people generally do not pause to reason on it Considerations of exuct justice and the impartial application of the law are overborne by what with most people 15 an innate feeling of repulsion at the thought of breaking a woman's neck or strangling her to death at the end of arope. All the suggestions and surroundings of barbarism connceted witha hanging become greatly intensi- fied when a woman isto be the victim, 1t is interesting to note how this feeling has been operative in a number of states In New York there bave been but three women convicted of murder in the first degree and subjected to the death pen- alty in forty years, the last having oc curred in 1852, Daring this time there have been several other convictions and sentences to death of wowen, but the penalty was commuted, The uniform custom of juries in the state, however, has been to conviet women of murder in the sccond degree, involving imprison- ment for life as a penalty, even when the evidence, had the accused been a man, would have led to a verdict of murder in the first degree and the death penalty. Maine has never hanged a woman, Mrs, Barrows is now under sentenee of death in that state, but 1t is the opinion of the governor, who recently granted her a reprieve until next April, that she will not be hanged, Connecticut has never - hanged '@ woman, oppo- con- nent in- JANUARY 4, 1887. A(n(‘n co!nnml tln\'=, |hnnzh mvrml murderesses whose cases wero celebrated, notably that of Lydia Sherman, were sentenced to death. There is no case on record in Towa in which a woman has been gentenced to death, and publio sen- timent there is suid to be strungly inflieting the death penalty on woman, No woman has ever been hanged in Mis- souri. veral have received the death sentence, but tho governor or the su preme court has always interfered to pre- vent the exccution, The popular senti- ment in that state is against hanging women. A woman has never been sen- tenced to death in Indiana. There aro eleven women notw in the state ponitent- iary serving life sentences, some of them for reyolting murders that would certainly have condemned men to tho death penalty. Other states which have never hanged a women are Massachu- setts, Michigan, Wisconsin, Illinois, Del- re, Nebraska and Kansas. In the mong these that infliet the death the exceptions being Michigan nsin—the taws make no dis tiction as to sex, and the immunity of women from cupital punishment h been duo together to public senti- ment, Only onn woman (colored) has sutfered tho death penalty in Ohio, though there have been a number of women convieted of ecapital erime and sentenced to death, Commutation has become the rule in the ease of women in that where juries do mnot conviet in the second degree or for rhtor, s is generatly done. Onlg one woman has been hanged in Minnesota its org torritory, and neithor Maryland has any v of o white woman hanged in Geor there have been seve is a growing public sentiment in the agunst it.
