Does the Electric Railway Homestead Asso-
citation build so many houses? For two
reasons; the first Is our electric railway
runs past all OF these lots and we want the
people to make their homes there and ride
on the road. Second, by So doing we give
men a chance tor comfortable

A LITTLE MANEuvER.


Barney Is keeping his nose out OF
water. lie went 10 Washington few
days ago. Yesterdays Washington dis
patches to THE GAZETTE gave the follow
ing as The copy Of bill introduced by
Congressman Reagan "No one act OF
contempt shall be punished by imprison-
ment for q greater period than six
months or by a fine not exceeding siO0,
and where the contempt is charged to
have been committed by person other
than an actual officer OF the couit and
without the presence Of the court, the
defendant shall be entitled TO trial by
jury"
The connection between BarneY's pres
eBce at the capital and this bill Is OBJ
vious to people who read his attack on
Judge Pardee's doctrines OF contempt as
laid down In the cases OF the offending
strikers. IL was one Of the grievances
complained OF that there was no limit to
the discretion Of the court IN innlcting
punishment for contempt. This Judge
Pardee declared TO be an undlsputed prin-
clplc Of law. Barney proposes, through
his proclaim ami, Mr.. Reagan, to amend
the law in that respect, at least
Judge Pardee cannot object to the pro-
posed amendment, as the penalty allowed
to be inflicted Is far beyond that imposed
10y him on any OF the strikers.
The clause allowing trial by jury to any
person charged with having committed
contempt Of court, who is not an actual
officer Of the court, is leveled against Par
dee's Interpretation Of the law by which
men In the employ of railway in the
hands OF receivers, and under control Of
the federal courts, are held TO be con-
structively officers OF the court, and sub
;eot to punishment for contempts, That
part OF the bin could be greatly improved
bya proviso giving intelligent men who
read newspapers an equal right to sit on
such iuries with ignorant and illiterate
Doors.
But the interesting question is, why
should Barney be taking such large
part in this matter, and so consplcuously,
Just on the eve Of an election for con-
gress?
