LOBBYISTS DEFEATED.

An interesting case has been decided
by New York court. The plaintiffs
were lobbyists, and brought suit against
the Western Union Telegraph Com
pany for professional services, the lat
ter consisting of using their in
fuence in securing the passage
of a law by the Legislature
relieving the company from the pay
ment of certain taxes claimed to have
been unjustIy levied. The W. U. ad-
United the services and was willing to
pay what it considered reasonable fee,
but not the exorbitant charge presented
by the lobbyists. The company won
the case, 1.-THE opinion being by Judge
Van Brunt. The judge denounc ed the
contract between the Western Union
Company as similar to that of a
gambler who accepts a note from his
victim on his winnings and brings suit
to collect. that the very weapon the
plaintiffs used to deprive the State of
its revenues, soliciting the assistance OF
members of the legislature, was turned
against them by the defendants, and
that the whole contract was void in law
as against public policy and public
morality" 1t is somewhat remarkable
that suit on such a contract should
have been brought, as men who engage
in the immoral business of lobbying are
usually not &c keen for money that
they are ready to obtain it by public
exposure of their corruption and i'm
morality.
Judge Van Brunt'S opinion should
have its effect on the lobbying industry,
but perhaps it will not, While there
are companies willing to employ men
for the dirtiest work there will be cor
rupt men to take pay for the disreputa-
BILE service.

A NEWsP sPER's WORK.

That newspapers are valuaelo. aids to
the officers IN the enlorc- <ment of the
criminal law is ackr eTmie6ged by every
body, as is also the other fact that
some of the cleverest detective work
has been periormed by the newspaper
fraternity. Ii II crime has been COM
mitted che newspapers are the keenest
TO get at the facts, and as a RUE are
most earnest in their efforts to bring
the guilty to justice.
Just what an enter pTising newspaper
will sometimes do in serving the public,
has been developed by a trial just
brought to q close in Maine. The trial
also verlfies the old saying that "mur-
der will out" Ten years ago, on the
22d day of February. 1878, Cashier J.W'
Barron, of the Dexter, Maine, Savings
Bank, did not return to his house at the
usual hour, and search was made for
him at the bank. The doors were
locked, and 50 also we're the safes and
vault. However. the latter was opened,
when the cashier was found lying on the
floor unconscious, wounded, gagged
and handcufed, and a rope about his
neck. Without recovering conscious
ness, he died the next morning. a
considerable sum of money was
missing. Singular as 1t may
seem the bank officials at once adop'ed
the theory that Barron was detaulter,
that he had tolen the money and to
divert su>p' cion from himself had tied
the rope around his neck, hand-cutfed
and gagged himself, and inflicted the
wounds from which he died. The
officers of the law accepted this theory,
and practically nothing was done
towards finding the real criminal.
Barron's widow insis ted that her hus-
band was guiItIess. and that he had
been murder, d, but she could do
nothing. Instead of inducing the put
ting nth of an effort in behalf OF JUS
tice, Mrs. Barron suffered social ostra-
cism, the community putting stain
upon the name of her dead hus-
band. About year ago, nine years
after the tragedy, Frank Stain
made "a confession duplicating his
father and one Cromwell in the killing
of the cashier and the robbery of the
bank. Even then neither the bank nor
the civil officials would do anything.
The New York World then took the
matter in hand, and not only advanced
the money to pay the expenses which
the State declined to pay, but also sent
q detective into the field. The result
was the arrest of Stain and Cromwell,
and their trial has Just closed, ending
in their conviction and sentence to i'm
prisonment for life. The faithfulness
of Barron was proven beyond doubt,
as was the gnilt of the murderers and
robbers.
1t is observed that some of the
Worlds jealous contemporaries are in
clined to belittle It's efforts and achieve
ments in this case, but discriminating
public will appreciate them, as will the
widow who has been made to suffer all
these years by reason of the malice of
the bank officials, and'the stupidity of
the States officers.
