HYPOCRISY OF JUSTICE

Among the national weeklies none
has done more to display hypocrisy Of
high places in its true light than Col
lier's. Sometimes 1t takes tack
which causes many of its readers to
express the opinion that 1t struck the
wrong hypocrite, but as a rule 1t holds
close to the line.

dunno IS DISGUSTED

Chicago, July 15.-It was reported
from Glasgow, Scotland, today that
Mayor Dunno had cabled to James
Dalrymple, manager of the Scottish
Cities Municipal Street Railways, ask
ing for a further report on possible
municipal ownership In Chicago. As
Dalrymple's letter, send to Mayor
Dunno two weeks ago and expressing

ership, has not yet been made public
by the Mayor, II is inferred by the
Mayors critics that the letter contain
ed expressions not calculated to help
the cause of municipal ownership. Dal-
rymple is quoted from Glasgow as ex-
pressing surprise both at the fact
that his letter was not made public
by Mayor Dunno and also because he
should be asked to make a second re-
port. Dalrymple refused to tell the
contents of the letter. He is. however,
quoted as saying:
my observation in Chicago con-
vinces me that the multiplication Of
the street car systems, without remod-
cling the entire principle on which
the corporation is governed, does not
present the elements of success"
Mayor Dunno refused to comment
on the report from Glasgow or to say
when he would make public the re-
port.

Why CURzON RESIGNED

London, July 15.-The struggle for
between Lord Curzon, the
viceroy of India, and Lord Kitchener,
the commander-inchief of the military
forces, continues. When Lord Curzon
threatened to resign II he did not
have his way. Lord Kitchener hurried
to follow his example, and General
Files actually did resign. So far Lord
Kitchener has been successful. He
set out to make complete reform Of
the Indian military organization on the
grounds that 1t was useless for war
conditions. These reforms were han
dicapped by the military member of
the viceroy's council, General Files,
who had the right to refuse laying
them before the Viceroy.
As the commander.in-chief is not
the man to be baked in the work he
has set out to do, he laid the case be-
fore the home government and threat
ened to resign unless he was freed
from the clog upon his actions. The
clog was removed. In other words
