A JUDGES CRITICISM.

& According to published reports
Judge Dayton scored the West Vir.
ginia corporation law, and said It re
flected dishonor upon the State. Cor.
poration laws similar to West Vir.
ginias have come in for great deal
Of criticism lately. Lincoln Steffens
had much to say about New Jersey
as the mother Of trusts and lamented
the fact that II had turned pirate
corporations loose TO prey upon other
States. In fact, New Jersey is blam.
ed for being the mother OF this abom.
nation when West Virginia really an.
tedated her many years In the liber.
nlity Of her corporation laws. Almost
since we have been State we have
been operating under very liberal and
loose laws, under which anything
could be incorporated for any purpose.
Yet no politician or set of politicians,
Republican or Democratic, not even
Judge Dayton, when they had the
power to do so ever criticised or at.
tempted to reform the laws. 1t re.
NAMED for the then Secretary of
State. Mr.. Dawson, to make the only
beneficial change since Henry S.
Walker drafted the law, and his
change made II so that the State gain.
ed some revenue instead of its all
going into the pockets of the Secre
tary Of State.
But good or bad It Is noticeable
fact that many States are liberalizine
their corporation laws. And good Of
bad, It is noticeable that our eminen
business men, our captains Of indus
try, our financial kings whom we arr
taught TO reverence and bow to a
typifying all that is great and goot
and grand in American progress, t
attack whom is to attack the fla,
itself, patroniZe with their corporal
ing business those States whose law!
are liberal. Therefore II It is dis
honorable TO have corporation Law
like West Virginia's these fine gentle
men who are the bone and sinew O
Judge Dayton's party must also be dis
honorable
There is another point. Does any
one think the steel trust, the shil
ping trust and all the rest Of tn
trusts, big and little, and the wild.ca
corporations and all the rest Of TIL
. organized bandits would never hav
been formed If New Jersey or Yves

Federal Prisoners or

The discovery that a federal pris-
oner confined in Vermont jail had
been allowed to keep a valet, besides
receiving other privileges which made
his incarceration easy, again calls at.
tention to the need for better proyis-
ion for the punishment Of offenders
against United States laws. Some.
time ago 1t was discovered that de.
faulting bank official sent TO Mas

leges that he was practically a board.
er in the jailer's family. He was al.
lowed to go fishing and TO leave the
premises whenever he wished, and he
usually spent his evenings playing

Partially shown to federal criminals
arises from the knowledge that they
are beyond the county and State ju
risdiction except in the fact that they
have been committed to the sheriff's
care. Besides this, they are often ed

ries, and their personality is likely
to appeal to the officer in charge. II
