We quote the following from
the Fulton Gazette:
The county court did the proper
thing by Sheriff Cole at its last
meeting, when an allowance of
$40.50 was made in that officers
favor to compensate him for the
extra expenses incurred on account
of Mrs. Alva Bailey and the baby.
The woman, who is held as an
accessory to the crime of killing
Jay Lawder, at Farber several
months ago, was confined in the
county jail along with her hus-
band, Ted Bailey. who committed
the murder, The delicate condi-
tion of the woman prompted
the big.hearted sheriff to think
her removal to a private home a
matter of right, without taking a
second thought as to who paid the
extra expenses, he found her a
home and a nurse, aud during her
confinement and since the birth of
her baby daughter she has had the
necessary care aud attention. The
cost.of all these extras exceeded
the fifty cent.a. day allowance made

REJECTS TAINTED" MONEY
John D. Rockefeller recently Of
ea.,.1 a. mn ooo4n

NGJ GNAO lAlNIEO" MUMGL.
John D. Rockefeller recently Of
fered So, 900, 900 to the Juvenile I'm
prOvement-- association and Judge
Lindsay Of Denver, who is at the
head Of Ihe association, backed by
the entire management rejected the
offer.
The object of the juvenile associa-
tiou is to do away with the Juvenile
Court as is now. The court takes
the child who has gone wron g.
Twenty three States have adopted
the Juvenile laws. that are as near
as circumstance will permit the
counterpart of the Colorado laws.
In studying the reason why the
children went wrong. Judge Lind
say worked out the theory that the
fundamental cause of all misdemea-
or of children-boys and girls-lies
in the idleness of the child. For
example, the child who lives near
the railroad track is the one who
is brought into court with every
session because there is the contin-
ual invitation to him to trespass
on the moving trains and freight
cars. Another that reappears in
every juvenile court is the child of
the widow who must leave her lit
tie ones at home while she is as
well the bread winner as the home
maker. 1t is said to be impossible
to prevent these children from
coming again and again into
the court. Another child who is
in the way to the Jail is the boy or
girl who is not fitted to work with
other children in the public schools
and falls out and hates to go to
school at all.
All of these children could be
be taken out Of the wrong way if
they could be taught to use their
hands and turn their vitality into
play that will develope their minds
and bodies, is Judge Lindsay's the
ory.
The International Improvement
Association intends to furnish the
antidOte to the idleness by secur-
ing legislation looking to the addi-
ton of trade schools to the public
system; to the more practical
teaching of morals in the schools
as we'll to forming clubs where
boys and girls may have the asso-
citation of persons of high ideals
and of kindly lives. The hope is
to build in every city a home of
the association containing club
rooms and lecture rooms, with
gymnasiums and baths, and above
all place where the young who
now frequent the dance halls aud
wine rooms because they have no
better place of amusement may
dance and enjoy themselves with
proper chaperOnage.
It is the belief of the leaders of
the juvenile movement that when
the International Juvenile Inn
: provement association shall have
become established the children
, who must now be hauled before the
! juvenile court, with its attendant
disgrace to the family, can be
taught the right way before they
have committed the misdemeanor
3 which puts them wrong before the
: law. The Juvenile court deals
9 with the results. The Juvenile
Improvement Association deals

The text of a despatch sent to a
prominent New York newspaper by
one of those functionaria1 correspon-
dents who are at the beck and call of
the bureaucrats, seeks to make it ap-
pear as if the resolution of the Pom
ce Chamber of Commerce touching
the importation Of rice into Porto
Rico was inspired in a spirit of
revenge, intead Of its being the nat
ural consequence of a wise economic
Judgment, which, put into practise in
the form advocated by the Ponce
merchants, would bring to an end the
painful crisis which now exists.
1t is not retaliation, nor reprisal
which is sought by Porto Rico in a
change of market in the purchase of
rice for consumption here; it is a
form Of equilibrium, it is means Of
counteracting the devastating effects
Of partial free trade which is pro-
duclng our ruin. g0,42
Our coffee has no protection what
ever in the American tariff; the bud
gets of the Island instead of becom-
ing smaller, steadily increase; the
functionaries take advantage of the
responsibility made possible by the
regime to spend money without limit
or with any sort of scruples.
The administrative demOralizat-
ion, the lack Of economic Judgment,
the total absence of aptitudes for
governing, oil these causes, added
to the principal cause of the econo-
mic crisis produced by the stupid
remedy of free trade which does not
in any way protect our first product,
makes imperative the adoption of the
measure advocated by the Ponce
Chamber of Commerce.
What has been advised by that
body is neither revenge not retalia-
ton. That which is sought is q com
pensation, it IS 4 form Of rcparati0n
by legal means for the illegal cXpIo-
itation Of American products.
Here we are paying the domestic
price for articles brought from the
United States. that is to say that We
pay bonus Of twenty five percent
even morc-for American pro
puctS
Rice, for example, is being sold
here at an inflated price.
With the present tariff Of two cents
a pound foreign rice could be
sold here at price Of only fraction
over the American article, say half 4
cent a pound to the consumer. and
there would be an annual gain ol

protection which we are forced 10
give to others, it has in no way beex
corrected, because American opinion
holds the view that it would be the
height of injustice to protect our
coffee and thus place burdens on
eighty millions of people for the be-
neft of one million. And each one
of those eighty million would
have to pay fifty cents annually for
our benefit! Whereas our ruined
colonists are obliged to pay three
|dollars-six times the amount paid by
the contInentals-for the support of
the products of the mother country.
Ana this appears unjust to nobody
And this is not the quintessence of
lniquitous exploitation.
The fact of our paying three dol
lars to protect American products is
not considered of any moment; pos
sibly it is not known by anybody in
the mother country. But at any ra-
te they act as if they were alarmed
when the Porto Ricans ask for fifty
cents, no more than fifty cents in re
turn for three dollars.
And yet there are treachcrous CO
respondents who attempt to put
false and alarming construction on
the scientific recourse suggested by
the Ponce Chamber of Commerce as
"a means Of lessening the present
crisis.
No. there is no spirit of revenge
nor Of animosity, there is no attempt
