Ever and anon the question of keep ing the State Library open at nights has been advocated but without avail. The suggestions have been made and then the matter ended. Those who have the matter in charge perhaps have noted the suggestions, but have paid no heed to them. Those who would be benefited by the move have never pressed the matter, and for that reason nothing has been accomplished. . If the people of the city want the ben efit of library at nights let them take some active steps, and we have no doubt that the matter can be accomplished. The Times stands ready to champion the cause, and push it to a finish if the peo ple really desire it. It is a valuable library, and is the property of the people; they have paid for it, and if they desire the nso of it, they are entitled to it. As it now stands the people would be just as well off without it as with it The library was not establish for the purpose of furnishing a few Sta'r officers with bocks for their leisure no ments. We noted in yesterday's issro where the authorities have made a concession by allowing the teachers to take out books the same as State officers. Under the circumstances this is well enough, but we wonld not advocate the idea of lotting the books go out. Let us give the open at-n'gbt idea a trial. IN MEMORY OF PARNELL. Tae sixth anniversary of the ("eath of Charles Stewart Parndl was fittingly celebrated In Dublin Sunday. At one time Piirnell was idol of the Irish people and there are many yet who revere and honor the dead patriot It was unfortunate that he fell, but all flesh is human and the greatest have often fallen. . The gpiiU uf ttatriotism was prevalent Five thousand Nationalists paraded the streets to the Bleak Olasnevin Cemetery, i . where they heaped high the grave of their famous and lamented leader with flowers, brought from all the counties of Ireland. ' The demonstration was unique. Previ oua demonstrations have bad strictly a funeral character; but in accordance with the decision of the leaders, that of to day waa divested of ail the trappings and the suite of woe and converted Into k triumphal procession, lively national airs replacing dirgpa, . ... - The country people were brought in by crowded eicusion trains. In their fcnts tlioy wore Ivy and shamrocks in stead of crape. - It was emphatically the people's day; for the aristocracy held coldly aloof. No flags were raised on the public buildings along the line of route, and only a few houses of the poor dis played decorations. The poverty of Ire land was exhibited, not only by tho chil dren who walked in their bare feet, bnt iriHhe attemps at a uniform for the pro ceFsionists, who seldom achieved more than a faded faded green s.ish or a spray of ivy on the coat Will Sign no Death Warrants. Topeka, Kan., Oct 11 -In an inter view Saturday Governor Lcedy advocates capital punishment for mnrder in the first- degree. The present Kansas law provides that a person convicted of mnr der in the first degree shall remain in the penitentiary one year at least, and then shall not be hanged nntil the Governor signs the death warrant There are about fifty persons in the penitentiary sentenoed te be hanged, but who are permitted to- live because no Governor has signed their death war rants.
