PRIlIA FAcIE EVIDENCE FFATTRE.

PRIMA FACIE EVIDENCE FEATURE.
The indictment ana arrest of twelve
Burlington druggists on the charge 81
violation Of the liquor law Is based on
the section Of the recently enacted law
which declares that the holding Of a
government license shall he considered
az prima facie evidence against the hold
er. The section, which is numbered So.
reads AZ follows:
The receipt for, or record Of.
the payment of the United States
special tax, as q liquor seller, shall
be prima faeie evidence that the
person named therein keeps Tor sale,
and sells, intoxicating liquors.
This was section on which the TEN.
perance committee in the legislature Of
1904 had a great deal Of discussion in
their attempt to frame a satisfactory
law. Its final insertion in the completed
instrument was more or less Of con-
eession to The prohibition element On
the committee which stood out for some
points when It was realized that law
more to their liking was impossible at
that session Of the legislature. prima
facie evidence was a prominent feature

than appear too selfish the ultra-li license

admit the section. And there it stands.

congress will be present. Of these 74S are
346 are h'om English-speaking coun-
tries outside of America, and the rail-
roads of this country will have 400
representatives in attendance. Accord
ing to the programme arranged, follow
ing the assembling of the delegates from
April 20 to May 2, the registration bu-
reau will open on May at the head
quarters of the congress at the New Will

all the principal railways of the country
will be begun, and it is expected that
at this time the foreign delegates will
have their eyes opened and learn a
thing or two about American railroad
ing.
congress will be the American railway
appliance exhibit. The railway supply
men of the country have spared no
pains or expense in bringing together
the latest and best improvements in
railway equipment. Permission was
obtained from congress to hold the ex-
hibit in Monument park, just back of
the white house. 1t is the first time that
the park has been used for display pur-
poses. The chairman of the general
committee of the railway appliance ex-
hibition is George A. Post, president of
the Standard Coupler company, of New
York. Mr.. Post is thoroughly alive to
the opportunity offered of convincing
foreign railroad men of the superior
ity of American construction and eq;iip-
ment, and the utmost is to be made of
the privilege. In speaking of the mat,
ter, Mr.. Post says:
Il believe that this coming congress
will be the most important that has
been held. and the fact that it is the
first time that. a session has been held
in this country should lead us all to
put forth our best efforts to make this
occasion one that will not be forgotten,
We have an~opportunity now to show
to the managers of foreign railways the
work that we are doing in America and
the work that we can do abroad. We
have been ably seconded in the work
that is before us by the president of the
United States, congress and the state
department, and am confident that our
foreign visitors will go home with en-
larged and heightened views of Amsx-
lean methods and appliances"

has been more of disposition on the
part of foreigners to recognize the
progress which was being made by
American railways, and there has been
increasing interest as result 1t is
evident, therefore, that the coming ses-
sions in Washington will prove the most
interesting and the most important in
the history of the congress.
The International Railroad Congress
had its birth at Brussels, where in 1856
the f1ftieth anniversary of the installa-
ton of railways in that country was
celebrated by a scientific congress. At
this meeting a committee was ap-
pointed to draw up programme and
prepare a series of questions to be dis
cussed, and this was the beginning of
the permanent organization, which is
known as the international Railway
Congress. At first the meetings were
held every two or three years, but

years the railways of the United States
have everywhere made such phenom-

For this reason, the American rail-

become familiar with all of the excel

Experience with Salmon

A heavy fall of snow in Scotland a
few weeks ago caused the River Tay to
rise suddenly. One of the big dams in
the stream overlooked with the result
that the salmon lying in the numerous
pools at once made rush to get higher
up the stream. A workman. engaged in
carting stones from the bed of the river,
was astonished at the moving mass of
salmon passing. So phenomenal was
the shoal that the carter deemed it wise
to stop his charge in the middle of the
ford to allow the fish to pass. The
salmon swan Hike lightning through the
wheels of the cart and around the
horses legs. In the space of few min
utes several hundred passed this partic-
ular point.-Chicago Daily News.
