Mail carriers have no authority to
trespass upon private property and
the postal law gives them no spec
ial rights or privileges as regard the
use OF roads. The law prohibits any
willful interference with the perfor-
nance of postal service, but such pro-
hibition does not authorize mail car
riers to disregard state laws or NUM-
cipal ordinances as regards the use OF
the public roads, nor authorizes them
to willfully interfere with the rightful
use of public roads, by both parties.
For one crime, and one crime only,
we believe lynching, before the law
can intervene, to be not only right,
but necessary. The work of putting
to death the dangerous brute should
be done soberly and decently, even
solemly, but relentlessly, as q thing re-
ouired for the protection of homes and
families, but with circumstances re-
tlecting on the reputation OF the COM
raunity for propriety and humanity as
lightly as possible. In the above the
Richmond News Leader expresses our
sentiments precisely.

New York, Jan. 3.-Irhe highest At

the French liner La Touraine, In yes-
terday from Havre. IL the estimates OF
Its officers are correct They say the
waves were nearly seventy feet from
trough to crest. Passengers, unfamiliar
with the tall waves, but probably not
unversed In the art Of spinning tall
yarns, declared the officers calcula-
tions are conservative and that the
highest waves were really OF the
mountainous" order.
Neptune was not kind to Kris Kringle
on Christmas day. He abandoned his
trident for a scoop and hove large Sec
tions of the ocean aboard the Touraine.
The captains cabin was flooded ana
battered and several pr pessengera and
some memoirs OF the crew were hurt
by falls due to the rolling of the ship.
After encountering the great sea the
Touraine turned tail to the turbulence3
and ran before 1t several hours. The
+ ship was more than two days late.
The Atlantic transport liner Mlnne-
apolis, from London, also had a hard
tussle with the gale and sea. On De-

GAS COMPANY WINS.
City Of Peoria Loses in Federal su-
promo Court.

City Of Peoria Loses in Federal Su-
promo Court.
Washington, Jan. 3.--The Peoria Gas
and Electric company won notable
victory in the United States supreme
court yesterday. The court. by unani-
nous decision, reversed the decision Of
the United States circuit court at Pc
oria, by the terms Of which the gas
+ and electric company vhs denied the
right to contest the reaSonableness and
legality Of certain proceedings of the
city Of Peoria, which were, alleged to
be innnlca1 to the company.
The opinion Of the court was handed
down by Associate Justice Brewer. 1t
dealt exclusively with that phase of the
litigation comprehended by Judge
Humphreys act in refusing to extend
to the corporation It's constitutional
right to defend It's property against
confiscation.
The city council of the city of Peoria
enacted an ordinance fixing the price
Of gas to all consumers at rs cents per
1000 cubic feet. The Peoria Gas and
Electric company refused to accept the
terms Of the ordinance upon the
ground that they were illegal and un
reasonable; that the enforcement OF an
arbitrary selling price Of Is cents per
1000 cubic feet would amount to con-
fscation Of the company's property.
Justice Brewer in the opinion of the
court carefully refrained from making
any reference to the 75-cent ordinance.
He confined himself to brief discus
sion of the acts of the lower court,
which were held to be unwarranted.
The opinion was exceedingly brief,
merely touching upon the question as
to whether or not the record submitted
by the United States commissioner
warranted Judge Humphrey in deter
mining that the gas and electric COM
pany has conducted It's business in vio-
lation Of the antitrust law of the state
of Illinois.
The opinion stated decisively that
there was no proof that the company
had thus violated the law and that the
commissioner had failed to find that
there had been such violation. The
opinion also stated that even II there
had been such an agreement there was
no satisfactory evidence Of It's duration
and scope. and, therefore. that the low
er court erred in dismissfng the case.
The cause was renanded for the taking
of further testimony and further hear
ing. This was exactly what the law
years for the gas and electric company
contended for. hence their victory. so
far as the present status of the It'll
cation is concerned, is complete.

WOLVES BRED FOR BOUNTY.
Some Iowa Farmers Doing Profitable
Business in ScaIps.

Burlington, Jan. 3--Raising hogs has
always been regarded as a profitable
industry, but raising wolves is said to
pay better.
1t has come to the ears Of Des
Moines county officials that the latter
occupation is being carried on sys-
tematically by few farmers who hope
to reap a good harvest next spring
The county pays 81 for every cub wolf
scalp presented at the auditors office
and S. for every old VOLTS scalp. 1t
has been noticed for several years
that certain farmers have been reap
ing a harvest each spring on bounties
for wolf scalps. Rarely was an old
VOLTS scalp presented and this fact
served to arouse the suspicious of the
county officials.
A farmer from one of the townships
where the wolves have been particu-
aarly plentiful. was in the city the
other day and unbosomed himself Of a
few facts concerning the wolf-raisine
industry
ITS more profitable to raise wolves
than IT Is hogs" said this farmer. If

Supreme Court Favors Brokers Fear
Of Self f-lnorimination.

Washington, Jan. 3.--The decision OF
district OF Ohio in the cases of John
w. Ballman versus Vivian j. Fagin,
United States marshal, was reversed.
by the supreme court Of the United
States yesterday. Justices Harlan and
Mckenna dissenting.
This case grew cut Of an effort to
compel 3allman, who is u broker in
Cincinnati to testify before the grand
Jury of the circuit court In a case be-
fore that jury. He refused to exhibit
his cash book or to answer questions
regarding entries in them. He was ad-
judged in contempt and ordered to be
imprisoned. He then sued out a writ
Of habeas corpus. but the circuit court
dismissed his petition. The case was
argued at the close of the last term
OF court and yesterdays decision was
favorable to Ballman.
Considering the question Of Ball
mans right to refuse to exhibit his
cash book on the ground that such
action might tend to incrlminate him.
Justice Holmes. who delivered the
opinion of the court, said: THE sub
ject under investigation, according to
the governments statement, was the
criminal liability OF some employe Of
a national bank from the vaults Of
which Il large amount OF cash had dis
appeared. We are of the opinion that
Ballman could not be required to pro-
duce his cash book II he set up that 1t
would tend to ineriminate him.
I'VE are aware that the courts be-
@., ~, ,,rtn "a
assumption that Ballman denied gener-
ally the possession OF cash book and
that he was before the court for dis
obedience to an order to produce It,"
The controversy between the city OF
Knoxville, Tenn, and It's water conn
pany as to the right Of the city to es-
tablish its own water works was yes
terday decided by the spr1eme court

mated in an effort by the water COM
pany to secure an injunction prohibit-
ing the city of Knoxville from con-
structing water works of It's own under
an act passed by the Tennessee legis-
lature In 1903. authorizing such action
on the part Of the city. The suit was
based on a claim that the water COM
pany's rights We're being violated.
The, supreme court also decided the
case of the Louisville and Nashville
Railroad Company VS. r. e. Deer, re-
yersing the decision of the supreme
court Of Alabama, which was favorable
