Street Railway Controversy.

The controversy between the two street railroad companies over Electric Park developed nothing yesterday but sidewalk gossip. The interested law yers rested on their oars and no further steps were taken since the decision of Judge Jones of the United States Court, by which the Montgomery Traction Company was directed to remove its tracks from the park.
 There is a probability that the Trac- tion Company will appeal from the de- cision of Judge Jones to the Court of Appeals, and there is also a probabil- ity that the differences between the street railway companies will be ad- justed out of court
 Tt seems to me-" said a disinterested lawyer. that since the court has held that both companies as well as the Amusement Company have rights Tn the premises, that the officials of these range to continue their operations just as they are without further legal con- troversies. As l understand the situa- ton, the Traction Company is willing to bear its fair share of expense in the matter of lights and other equipment at the park, and I think 1t is probab ble that some agreement of this kind will be reached"
 The Traction Company Is operating cars to within a short distance of the park and many people are patronizing that line.
 ''one thing is certain" said a patron of the cars. Doth companies are vieing to improve the service to Electric Park and the public will be benefited by the controversy"

ciprocity. The Bay State Republicans, as is well-known, are greatly dissatis- fled with their partys duplicity on re- ciprocity. The bold repudiation of the 'handmaid of protection" to which the party was as strongly committed ac to protection itself; its repudiation af- ter 1t had been used to uplift the tariff schedules abnormally. is recognized by Massachusetts Republicans as sur render to the demands of overprotected interests. The Democrats are evident ly determined to force the Republicans to face the tariff music. Governor Douglass says:
 There is a crisis at hand in the af fairs of the State, and the only satis- factory solution is worldwide recip- rocity. To elect the Republican ticket in Massachusetts this fall means to set the minds of Republican members of Congress at rest. They must be hit hard at Washington, or else they pay but little attention to the demands of the people of any section. If the State Is swung again into the Democratic column, then the tariff committees at the Capital will give heed. I think that If Massachusetts is carried by the Dem- oeratic party this fall the powers in Washington would adopt a reciprocity measure immediately. They must eith- CT do that or lose the State the follow ing year. when Congressman are also
 elected. and they are too shrewd as politicians for that"
 The Boston Advertiser has long been an advocate of reciprocity: It has no
 love for the tariff as 1t stands; but it does not believe the State can be in duced to render a verdict against the
 policy of protection, or in favor of the Democratic Party. in a tariff campaign
 It cheerfully admits that Governor
 Douglas has already shown good
 deal of shrewdness in judging the po- litical situation in Massachusetts but
 1t tells him he ought to bear in mind
 that he is not the first Democrat who
 has believed that Massachusetts could be carried on square fight against
 the protective tariff system, and who found out his mistake afterward. Get ting down to those stubborn things called facts, The Advertiser reminds Governor Douglas that w. E.. Russell, after winning successive campaigns on State issues, saw the State lost on the tariff issue. and that J. E. Russell, a far better orator than w. E., lost the
 State overwhel elmingly on the tariff, is~
 sue, although he had some of the best campatgners in his party behind him. And we suspect The Advertiser is close to the truth in It's conclusion that Mas sachusetts "favors protection, and will
 not support any party that comes out
 on fair issue against the principle Of protection"
 When the Demoo' atic Party, in Ma tional Convention assembled, in 1904,
 refused to wage war on the abuses of protection and let protection itself se- vcrely alone; when it put into its plat form Protection is robbery" it fur nished a text that will be used not by the Democrats, but by the Republicans

Dropping Senator Depew from the pay roll of the Equitable. prying him loose from the $2O.O0o salary which he did nothing to earn. may reduce the output of stale jokes from that source. Whatever cause others may find for criticising or censuring the managers of the Equitable we fail to see how Depew can join them. He knew that he was getting $20,000 a year for which he rendered no service. and was not expected to render any, and he knew that the money really belonged to the policy holders of the company. That and other amounts which were donated to prominent men was. to put 1t plainly. filched from the pockets of those who trusted the company and risked their money in it. The Senator cannot plead ignorance or affect in nocence in the matter.

Garbage on River Front.

T observe" said newspaper reader, that our sanitary department has sent samples of Montgomery milk and water to New Orleans to have 1t examined for germs. This may be wise step, but 1t seems tC) ne that there are other mat ters just as urgent to which the sanf- tary department might turn its atten- ton.
 The city has made a dumping ground for garbage of the river banks near the union railway station. All sorts of re- fuse matter is unloaded there. and 1t Is occasionally set afre after 1t has fes- tered in the sun. The fumes from this garbage are not agreeable. to say tho least. and this is not the proper place to deposit garbage.
 Some time ago suggestion was made that this particular place should be converted by the city into park, and was hopeful that something would be done In this direction, Certainly such a public place. one which Is viewed daily by thousands of strangers pass credit upon Montgomery"

Here's one bit of advice that Con- gressman Cushman of Tacoma, Wash. gave to a class of girl graduates: Don't become a bargain counter fiend. Don't waste the one life which God gave you chasing a special sale. or trying to run down a bargain counter bonanza. Whenever I see a lot of wo- men struggling around bargain coun- ter l am in doubt as to whether life Is comedy or tragedy. If there Is any spectacle in modern life that tends to make a sane person lose hope in tho future, 1t Is to see a lot of women with hair disheveled and raiment awry, crushing and jamming through a liv- Ing ocean of frenied femininity in or der to reach that modern misnomer called bargain counter. whereon is displayed everything-that people don't need. In the last few years there has developed a new and distinct type of disease in the American woman and 1t right aptly be called bargain itis'"

Referring to the habit of tipping the walters at hotels and restaurants, The Chicago Chronicle argues that tipping will cease when the public comes to comprehend that in tipping a servant the tipper Is merely paying added money to the employer instead of giv- ing a sratuity to the servant. That, indeed, Is the truth. In the last anal ysis the tip pays the wages which the employer of the menial refuses to pay. If the tip were withheld the employer would have to pay the wages. He might add that much to his bill, but such a proceeding would at least be straightforward The present system Is robbery by indirectiSn."
 It amounts to just this, that either the walters or the proprietors are rob- ping the public. and in some cases we suspect that both get the benefits of the custom. -

COMMON SENSE AND LAW,
How the Work of Justice and Jurie. Is
 Obstructed by Technicalities. Milwaukee Free press


 Jacob Schutz was convicted of brib- cry in the Circuit Court of Milwaukee County by jury of twelve of his peers After indictment by a grand jury every plea and process known to the practice of law was invoked to delay the trial of the issue of guilt or innocence. Af- ter strenuous efforts by the District At torney to purge this county of crime the issue was tried and the jury pro- nounced Schutz guilty. An appeal was then taken to the Supreme Court The case was reversed and new trial granted. Justice Dodge in writing the opinion. goes further and rebukes the trial judge, O. T. Williams. Why? Because in instructing the jury Judge Williams used the following language:
 "A wise rule which jurors may adopt for their guidance when there is a con- f1lct of testimony between witnesses Is to give credence to the testimony of the witness or witnesses who have least inducement through interest or other motives to testify falsely"
 The language used universally by the courts throughout the State. and re- peatedly approved by the same Court Is as follows:
 Tn determining the credibility of witnesses you may consider his or her interest in the result of the trial in con- nection with all the testimony and cir cumstances surrounding the alleged commission of the crime"
 The difference in language above Is given as the sole reason for the rever- sal and new trial. Now the law has been wisely defined as enlightened" common sense. To the common sense of a layman the above language seems in each instance to have the same practical import. To a Jury of common sense each statement means the same
 The Supreme Court seems to have found some mysterious distinction without a difference. which we must assume, since 1t cannot be found in common horse sense. must be found in an enlightened legal common sense. No living person will believe that this tweedledee vs. tweedledum made or could have made any difference in ar irving at a verdict {.
