Tho Trlbuno will not bo hold ro, sponsible for opinions here expressed.) Forest City Poor Hoard. Editor of The Tribune. Sir: 1 notice In your most valuable pa l-r of the Mh, Forest City items, an item reflecting on the poor board of Forest Cltv In connection with the case of Horry Robinson and George Carpenter, two colored gentlemen who were employed on the construction of the Itockcllff Water company's dam here last summer. I do not know whether your correspond ent Is in the habit of telling barefaced lies or whether he has been misinformed, It certainly Is one or the other. Mr. Rob inson implied for relief. He told Mr, Hates 'that if he would send a load of coal it would be all he needed, which was sent him on Feb. 23. On March 2 be came for more relief, which was given him.- Wo have not heard from him since. Hoping your correspondent will bo a little more careful and look a little more alter his own affairs, 1 remain most respectfully yours, Fred Cray, Secretary Forest City Poor Hoard. He Favors Hanging. Editor of The Tribune. Sir: Seeing your editorials of March 5 on capital punishment, I desire to make a few remarks. The figures you give nre in teresting and offer ample food for thought on the subject. Your remark, "the trouble with capital punishment Is that the figures are all against it," Is correct. In 1SS0 thd 1,419 murders should ha Vebccn followed up with 1,449 hangings; those of ls7 uivl the subsequent years also by exactly cor responding numbers. I Will even kno K olt 50 per cent, on 'the whole lot for ex Herniating clreunistuncca. If that had been done, the record or 1X91 would not have shown the enormous figure of S.iXW murders, not 80, and probably nut 8il. So long as only one murderer out of thirty, or even out of sixty, pulls the rope, tho others will take their chances, and tho theory of hanging has but u mighty poor trial. Hy your own figures It Is shown that the less hanging the more murder In proportion, old Moses said, 'an eye for nn eye, n. tooth for a tooth," and he had u very level head; the words are good today. When 00 per cent, of our murderers are legally hung It will be n great blessing: for the general public, und then, Mr. Editor, we will have another conversation on this Interesting topic. I expect then to claim yon ns n convert to my opinion, Jumes Jackson. New York, Much 8. - Relief in six Hours.
