City Marshal SWEET announces in the
Argus that simple DRINKS are not put
before the court because in his opinion
the best Interests of the community
would not be subserved thereby. If City
Marshal SWEET will turn to Chapter 1872
of the Public Laws of 1891, Section 4S, he
will find this:
Any person found intoxicated in any street,
highway or other public place. shall be pun
ished for the first offence by iine not exceed
ing thirty days.
One trouble with Marshal SWEET is that
he does not know the laws of the state
which it is his duty to enforce. Another
trouble with him is that he does not dis
tinguish between the functions of po-
lice officer and those of the court. The
laws make ample provision for the extern
sion of mercy where mercy is needed.
But, very wisely, they have not lodged
the discretion in city marshals and po-
lice officers, but in the judges of the
courts. If a poor man is arrested for
some misdemeanor, and there are extern
uating circumstances, the judge
may reduce his fine to cent
or remit it altogether. The
discretion is lodged in him. But the po-
lice department. have got to assuming
that the discretion is lodged in them and
they remit the fine, indeed they remit
prosecution altogether whenever they
feel like it, not only in cases of drunken
ness but also in cases of brutal street rows
and larcenies. This is direct and palpa-
BILE violation of law which admits of no
defence whatever. Such a practice is
certain to breed corruption and democrat
ization. If the city marshal or his dep
uties have been renting the punish
ment of men arrested for various mis-
demeanors, as they apparently confess
they have, they have been guilty of lille
gal acts. Very wisely the legislature
has not placed in the hands of police Off
GERS the power of determining what is
best for the interest of the community.

I'VE Never Sleep"

This is the striking and probably very
appropriate motto of the celebrated Pink
erton Detective Agency" which has seldom
failed in any attempt it has made to track
and hunt down criminals. be they never
so cunning. At any rate. whether the de-
~tectives never Sleep or not, it is pretty
certain that a man who knows "the Pink
ertons' are on his trail will not sleep very
much nor very soundly.
This not sleeping may do very we'll for
detectives and '%'crooks," but it does not
suit the travelling public nor the Burling-
ton Route. Accordingly, this e%nterpris-
ing line-the Chicago, Burlington & Nor
thern-has placed in service the unsur-
passed vestibuled trains of the famous
Pullman Company, which ensure the
through passenger an undisturbed and de-
lightful nights rest. Persons desiring
these accommodations can secure them in
advance by writing or telegraphing to any
agent of The Burlington" or to w. J. c.

The Stock Growers Journal of Miles
City, Mont. says:
1--WE take great pleasure in chronicling
a kind and charitable act on the part os a
great corporation. The old saying that
corporations are bodies without souls
seems to be away off in this instance. Mrs.
George Blanck, of Miles City, has recent
ly received the sum of $500 from the Bur
lington Road. 1t will be remembered that
her husband was killed last fall when 60
ing east in charge of cattle for the Phillips
Company. President Scott, of the Stock
growers Association and H. r. Phillips
investigated the circumstances attending
the death of Mr.. Blanck and found the
railroad company was not liable as there
was contributory negligence on the part of
the deceased. However, in consideration
of Mrs. Blanck's Strengthened circumstan-
ces. the Burlington, while recognizing no
liability gave her through charitable mot
ives, solely, the above mentioned sum.
Such benevolence deserves to be chroni-
cled and it should Incl. e other corporations
to like deeds of benevolence."

A r Railroad.

BY the absorption of the Chicago &
Atlantic Railway between Marion and
Chicago, the ERIE has at last effected
its entrance into Chicago, and now &C.
cupies the proud position of being the
only line between Chicago and New
York entirely under one Management.
One result of this is the arrangement
whereby all the through trains of the Erie
are now run solid between Chicago and
New York without change. Passengers
holding through tickets, whether first or
second class are able to 60 from Chicago
to New York without changing cars.
Pullman's most modern Sleeping Cars
are run on all through trains via this line.
and on their .Vestibule Limited, Pullman's
Dining Cars. No extra fare charged on
this train In fact, the rates via the ERIE
are lower than via any other route Offering

Az old Pacific coast Eneine.

Perhaps few of the people know that a
very antique engine is lying useless be-
hind the station at Long Beach, Los
Angeles county. This engine was used
in the early part Of the last decade, and
when the fireman wanted to put in any
fuel the train had to be stopped while
the fireman put in wood at the front Of
the engine, as the door Of the furnace Ia
situated there. This engine a between
Los Angeles and Long Beach before the
Southern Pacific extended It's line to
that place. The cars are like street cars
Of today, only about twice az long.
