 TIT WIG.L NEVER BE.

The New York Mail thinks 1t would be we'll if American energy in securing conviction In a court of law could only keep pace with American facility in pTeferring criminal charges" Then 1t cites a number of cases of promi- nent men who have been indicted and not convicted, and adds that charges, indictments and preliminary convictions that later are set aside are so common that 1t will soon be possible to make an (nn) honorary class among our public ofEicials--those who, like Shadrack and his fellows. have passed through the fire of public suspicion and come forth without any prison smell on their gar ments."
 - From the very nature of our grand jury system a large part of what The Mall seems to consider a great evil is unavoidable. The grand jurors hear but one side of the case and that the one that is against the accused. Malice, greed. self-intsrest or some other in- fiuence may and often does present to that body such evidences of guilt that however honest and careful they may be they will indlct a man for an offence or alleged offence of which 1t Is impos- sible to convict him in court. In many cases when the trial comes on 1t Is proven that the accused was clearly i'm nocent. Such things happen without blame to the jurors who found the in- dictment in good faith and on what they considered sufficient evidence. It is also true that public opinion often accuses a man without any tenable ground whatever. but if he is not tried and convicted that same public opinion will criticise and condemn the law and the officers of the law for failure to punish one whom the public has al- ready convicted.
 And The Mail does not need to be reminded that there Is a real and just cause of complaint that the big fish among criminals too often escape the penalty of their crimes. Money. inhu- ence, powerful friends and 'pull" will enable a man to come clear where an- other without these aids would be con- victed and punished. This. also, Is unavoidable, 1t would seem. At any rate. 1t is continually going on, and if there Is a way to prevent 1t. we have not heard of its application.

Anderson of New Orleans today, with Deputy United States Marshal Fowler, arrested J P. Barrett on a charge of uslng the mails to defraud. In default of bail.

They offered to place money for people who desired to bet on horse racing, and 1t is charged that they received from different persons a total of about S70,000. The investors complained to the postoff1ce authorities that they could get no report on the use of their money. Barrett declared that he had not used the mails to de- fraud anybody and said he was willing to go to New Orleans to fight the case. Collins has not yet been arrested but according to Barrett he will make nc effort to avoid the officers.

NEEDED WARMING.

In @ recent issue of The Hartford Times we find the following:
 The brutal hold-up of a young wo- man bOokkeeper In Hartford, while she was on her way to the bank to make a large deposit, carries a, warning. It's a practice of many employers to have their bank deposits made by young women The case of one Hartford bank, to which not less than ten or if teen feminine clerks bring the funds of their employers each day, was called to the attention of The Times this morn ing. Tn many eases the passbooks, with the enclosed bills and checks, are car ried openly and exposed to view, so that the errand of the fair messenger is ob- vious.
 The fact that the custom is pregnant with risk Is suddenly and sharply thrust on the attention of inc public by the ugly affair on Windsor Avenue yes- terday A young woman and a bank deposit make an inviting combination for a thug to tackle, and the wonder, in retrospect, is that yesterdays high way robbery was the first recent incl dent of its kind heFeabouts.

PuMrInn MILK.

The farmers of Cumberland County. Pennsylvania, have evolved a new scheme, and we shaIl watch its devel- opment and application with some curi- osity. They are planning to pump milk through pipes to the cities. just as oil and water are now transmitted to distant points. They reason that if pil or crude petroleum is pumped two or three hundred miles, and water is sent long distances in the same way, that there can be no good reason why milk cannot go by the same means.
 The reasoning Is good. of course. Pe- troleum in it's crude state is thick, sticky fluid. and If it can be forced through pipes to such distances as Is now done. there should be no reason why fresh milk cannot be sent just as easily, or more so. and they are going to try 1t. But, as The Brooklyn Eagle argues, there are some dihiculties in the way. As 1t says. milk is not so plentiful as oil in the hill country. and yeu must have that kind, or the milk will not run down hill. In warm weather the flow should be lively or the fluid may stagnate in some warm place and turn sour. which would cause the loss of a whole days supply The oil pipes have to be scraped of parafHn by an augur-like instrument, which is sent through the length of the tube, and SO the milk pipe would require to be cleaned of cream; but if the rotation of She scraper were to churn the whole contents Into bntteF--which in its turn ia q suggestion for wholesale butter making by a trust--the whole pipe line would require to be dug up and put in order"
 On the other hand. there would be some material advantages, among which we may reckon the saving of both time and freight Conveying milk to the railroads and shipping it by rail Co distant points takes both time and money. and if it Is delayed in trans mission it is likely to arrive at it's des- tination in a condition not calculated to attract buyers. especially if the water with which it is diluted carries a good stock of germA Sending 1t rapidly through clean and cool pipes would ob- viate these difficulties. but we are forced to doubt the possibility of keep ing the pipes clean. Water has a ten- asncy to seour' the pipes through which it passes. and in the case of oil there ia little danger of the fluid being in- 5ured. but 1t will be entirely different with milk for not only does it soon spoil, but every particle of 1t which ad- heres to the pipes will injure that which follows. Those Pennsylvania farmers may make a success of their scheme. but we must remain doubtful until it is tried and proven.

Hearty Food Puts Extra strain OB
 This Important Organ.
 Winter is a little more than half over, and the results of It's hearty food are shown en the variable appetite. nausea, gnawing at the pit of the stomach, heartburn, sallow skin. fur red tongue, headache, backaohe, and sleepIessness. The stomach has been overworked, the nervous system is un- strung, the blood is in bad condition, the digestive organs are tired out. It is at this season of the year that MI-o-na, the only remedy known that gives strength to the stomach and di- gestive organs, Is of especial value.
 Mi-o-na Is not a hit-or-miss cure. but is an unusual combination of rem edies that makes 1t infallible in re- storing health to the stomach and dt- gestive system. It overcomes any acid condition that may be present tn the stomach and intestines, soothes and heals the irritated mucous membrane. has a stimulating effect on the solar plexus, and combines peculiar proper ties that strengthen the nerves of the stomach and puts the whole digestive system in so healthy, clean and sweet a state that fermentation of the food cannot exist, any disease germs in the stomach will be destroyed. and the di- gestive system will be so strengthened that it will extract from the food all the elements that make solid bone. firm muscle, and pure blood It Is 8 guaranteed cure for all diseases of the stomach, excepting cancer.
 The guarantee on Mi-o-na Is given by one of our best known druggists. who agrees to refund the price, so cents, should Mi-o-na not give perfect satisfaction. Ask E c. Fowler to show you the guarantee he gives with every package

rrIArNG ON THEM.

One Representative comerford of the Illinois Legielatnre. must be disgusted with his fellow members in that hon. orable body Recently he declared: The Illinois Legislature is Q great public auction where special privileges are sold to the highest corporation bidders" We must confess to some. surprise at comerford. Not that we propose to take issue with him on a question of fact, because he knows much more about the body of which he Is a member than we do. and we have no desire to dispute his word, for Prus tus is an honorable man." and so we must assume of MT. conerford. having no evidence to the contrary.
 But while we may not dispute or doubt his work, being rather disposed to admit that he speaks truly, we are little surprised that he should make the accusation so boldly. Being him self member of the body which he thus pIaeards as an aggregation of grafters and boedlers. is he not, indi- rectiy. at least. making confession? Seems to us that he is rapping his own shins when he makes the charge. If 1 he had spoken of that body in the past tense, or if he were not one of them. we might not feel surprised. Even as 1t is we would not be so discourteous as to doubt his word.
 TO tell the truth, we strongly suspect that Mir. Comerford has simply stated facts, and that he might really have put 1t in mrch stronger language than he did. We read the Chicago papers of all shades of political opinion. and in them we find much to justify the opinion ex- pressed by this plain-speaking legisla- tor We are continually reading of im- mensely valuable franchises granted \ for only a fraction of their real value, \ and the conclusion is unavoidable that l there was a game of palm-greasing car- ried on among the law-makers. This 1 one who has been telling tales out of school may be strictly honest or he may be merely an unsophistieated 1ndivid- uaL. It may be that he is expressing the natural feelings of an honest man over the discovery of rascality in oth- CTS. or it may be that he Is new one in public life and had an idea that ali officials are strictly incorruptible.
 If that last view of It is the correct one. we may safely say that he will not remain long at Springfield without having such visions shattered. If he remains in the Legislature of Illinois, he will soon find that he must be pre- l pared to reach out for his part of the meat or find himself feeling very very lonesome. And then there Is another view suggested by his explosion. II may be that he. being @ new and un- known man, has not been looked on as a member of importance and conse- quently he hasn't been approached by any Of the dispensers Of graft. There are several ways to account for his ae- cusation, aside from that of honesty, but we may give him credit for that with the little knowledge we have of him.

is common in that city. Is certainly not one to be commended. Of course, there will be no question raised as to the honesty and reliability of these female clerks or messengers, but certainly VI may doubt the propriety or good sense of employing them in the manner in dicated. If conditions in Hartford are as indicated in the article we havs copied. the banks and depositors would do much better to employ armed men to carry money to and from the banks. Instead of entrusting 1t to girls who are not able to defend themselves against the thieves and thugs who are on the watch for just such chances. It really seems that Hartford needed tp learn something.

Essen, Germany. Feb. 4.-The Essen strike comittee has called a meeting of delegates of all the miners unions for next week in order to decide wheth- CT to continue the strike. The com mittee will begin next week to supply money to strikers. The relief fund now reaches $250,000. Reports from many parts of the empire arc to the effect that the people are raising funds to support the strike. Signs multiply however that harmony among among the strikers has been shaken.
