Scat,
You bum and battered
Old straw hat,
Say,
On the square.
Not wishing to stir up
Any hard feelings,
But just speaking
In the interest of truth
And harmony.
You are about
AS disreputabls
A bunch of straw
As a self respecting COW
Ever refused to eati
But, still,
You'll have to do.
II is too near the timf
When we dump you
To waste either
Vain regrets
Or cleaners charges
On your dingy
Old frame.
Just to think
That once you were a nifty
Two-fifty
Lid
That made the ladies look
Decidedly interested
AS you approached.
Now you couldn't
Make the old clothes man
Look your way.
But. still. you'll do
That is. you'll have to.
We need you a few weeks n1oSe
In our business
And then merrily
Away

Of old hats.

But. nevertheless.

WITNESS PUT ON THE RACK
Hartje's Attorneys Trying to I'm
peach Testimony of Mrs.
Ashby. Col0red Waitress.

Pittsburg, July 25.-Counsel for Auz
gustus Hartje today renewed attempts to
discredit the testimony of one of Mrs.
Mary Scott Hartje's witnesses, Mrs.
Blanche Ashby, the colored domestic who
lived in the Hartje home, and TO prove
that she had admitted that she had been
promised $500 if she would make the de-
position to the effect that Clifford Hooe,
the negro coachman, never had slept in
the spare room at the Hartie house when
Mr. Hartje was away. Several witnesses
who live in Washington, d. c., testified
that Mrs. Ashby had told them she had
lied in her deposition and that she had
been promised money for doing so.
All these witnesses were put on the
rack in cross-examination by Mrs.
Hartjes chief counsel, Attorney John NJ.
Freeman and some of them contradicted
themselves in several instances.
Mrs. Ashby was in court all day and it
was said will go on the stand and ret-
crate the statements attributed to her by
the witnesses on the other side.
The hearing of the conspiracy charges
against Augustus Hartje, John S. Well
shons and Clifford Hooe, the colored
coachman now in Jail on charge of per-
Jury in connection with the divorce case
has been postponed for one week from
today.

GRAND JURY IS

Auditor of American Sugar Re-

New York, July 25.-That the United
States grand jury is investigating west
ern trunk line railroads suspected of hav-
ing granted rebates to the American Su-
gar Refining company was made known
today when w. z. Foster, general audi

Judge HOugh in the United States cir
cult court as a recalcitrant witness be-
fore the grand jury. The foreman of the
grand jury reported to the court that Mr..
Foster had declined to produce before the
grand Jury certain books and documents
demanded of him.
Mr. Foster said that he had not refused
to produce the data. He said that he had
not the physical possession of all books
and papers in question, except as general
auditor of the corporation. A portion of
them, he said, were in the safe of the COM

NEW LAW BY JUSTICE COURT
Price Magistrate Holds That Section
of Revised Statutes Is
Unconstitutional.
Especial to The Herald. }

Price, Utah. July 25.-In the suit of
Thomas Fitzgerald VS.. John o. Bryner.
which came up before Justice Ballinger
yesterday, the defendant interposed the
defense of the suit which provides that
no suit for liquor bills, when sold in less
quantities than five gallons at one time,
shall be maintained in any court in the
state.
To the answer charging this defense the
plaintiff demurred. and after listening to
the presentation of the law on both sides
of the question the court found, and so
rendered his decision on the demurrer,
that the section in question is in violation
of the fourteenth amendment TO the fed
eral constitution and in derogation of the
provisions of the constitution of the state
of Utah, which forbids the taking of
property without due process of law, and
that said section contravenes and in
fringes the rights, privileges and immu-
mites of the citizen; that in order to up
hold this section IL is necessary to hold
that the seller has no right of property
in the thing or article which he keeps or
offers for sale under the license which is
authorized by statute and amounts to the
absolute destruction Of the right of prop
erty.
The right of property in an article in
wolves the power to sell and dispose of
such article, as well as to use and enjoy
it. Any act which declares that the own
er shall neither sell it, nor dispose of it.
nor enjoy it, confiscateS 1t, depriving him
of his property without due process of
law Against such arbitrary legislation,
by any state, the fourteenth amendment
affords protection. w. H. Frye appeared
for the plaintiff and the demurrer. There
fore section 1852, title 81, revised statutes
of Utah, is held unconstitutional by A.
Ballinger, justice of the peace for Price
precinct.
