SPRINGFIELD, April % In the Sen

of Henmor's bill to deiue the crime OF

a Nut for John Sherman

If Mr. Syndicate Sherman, the only
cabinet minister of whom the world has
any knowledge who could boast proprie-
tary interest in a fraudulent heud of the
government OF great people, could be in
duced to descend from the pedestal of his
towering cOnceit, and become az amenable
TO instruction as are ordinary men who do
not own a de fIctO president. he might be
led to see that abundant capital seeking n-
vestment at low rate OF interest is to be
accepted as proof of anything but pros
porous condition of affairs.
Mr.. Syndicate Sherman and his codes
truotives have always relied largely upon
English practice and precedents and the
cO-existent state of affairs in England to
vindicate the wisdom Of the policy they
had forced upon the country. II, there
tore, it can be shown that this boosted
English system of finance has resulted
dlsastrousIy to its originators, surely the
servie copyist should be ready to admit
that the system when transplanted may
prove equally baleful in its results.
This being conceded, Mr.. Syndicate
Sherman's attention is invited to the fol
lowing picture of financial affairs in Lon
don, taken from the New York Herald.
They have got great deal of money in
London, and yet they are not happy. They
have got more than they want. They are

ARLINGTON CASE.

ALEXANDRIA, VA, Jan. 28.-Tn
the Arlington case today, Judge
Hughes read a long decision. The
Court decides to grant the instruc.
tions asked for by the plaintiff, and
to refuse instructions on the same
points of law prayed for by the
defendants. He holds that the
Supreme Court hadin two contested
cases settled the principle, that
owners of land subjected TO direct
taxation Of Congress, under the
act of go and '63, had a right to
pay tax at any time before the tax
sale, through a friend or agent, as
we'll as in person, and that tender
of the payment or, practice Of the
commissioner refusing payment of
tax by friend or agent, prevented
forfeiture, and invaliiated the tax
sales made after such ten
der, or Of the adoption of
such practice. The Judge CON
sidered with elaboration the distinc
ton sought to be set up by defend
ants counsel between such sale
made to private purchaser and
one made to the United States, and
held that although the Supreme
Court had not passed upon any case
of sale made to the United States,
under the circumstances prescribed,
yet that there was no principle of
law and no provision of the acts of
1923 that would justify such dis
tinction and give the United States
such title, if a purchaser, under a
sale which would be void if made to
a private purchaser. lie therefore
refused the instructions asked for
by defendants.
