Reqrettable.

There is universal regret in the
south. as there certainly will be every
where throughout the land, that Pat
rick Calhoun. u lineal descendant of
both Patrick Henry and John Caldwell
Calhoun. is mixed up in the bride Civ
ing cases in San Francisco. and the
prayer OF all good people is that,
though he has been indicted along with
Abe Ruef. Mayor Schmitz and others.
his innocence may be made to clearly
appear. for two purer statesmen never
lived than Patrick Henry and John C.
Calhoun. While they can in no way
be held responsible for the doings of
Patrick Calhoun. it would be delightful
to know that their virtues survive in
him. His guilt would be a sweet NOR
sci for the addle pated pessimists who
are forever exploiting the degeneracy
of our times

Texas is magnificent and mammoth
commonwealth. which never does any
thing by halves. With her it is whole
hog or none. First ana last she has
essayed many difficult stunts. Perhaps
the most difficult is to curb the trusts.
She has gone at that in dead earnest.
The other day one of her courts fined
the Waters Pierce oil trust 81 ,623,900
and issued an order of custer, which is
coming it rather strong as a starter A
few more such doses and the trusts
will give Texas wide berth. OF
course thu case will be appealed, but
nevertheless and Notwithstanding it's
first blood for Texas in her fight
against the whole tribe of octopi, and
first blood counts for nearly as much
in lawsuit as in prize fight My
observation and experience are that 1t
is much more pleasant and profitable
to gain a case in nisi prius court
than to lose it. So up to this writing
Texas is ahead-away ahead-in her
antitrust crusade. In this connection ii
may be not in apropos to jog the pull
lie memory with the fact that Texas
has the best and most sensible railroad
rate regulating law of all the states of
the Union, one result Of which is that
her cities are all growing at something
approximating uniform rate 1t goes
without saying that the fight to regu
late or destroy the trusts is a stupeE-
dous one, but the American people can
accomplish anything on which they set
their heads for the public good, and the
signs of the times Indicate that they
have made up their minds to get rid of
the trusts. Congress is trying it, the
state legislatures are busy at it, and the
united forces of state and nation will
succeed

After Tax DODGERS.

Tax dodgers, like the poor. we have
with us always. 1t will be remem-
bered that when the income tax fea-
ture of the Wilson tariff bill was dis
cussed in the house of representatives
a distinguished New York orator
fought it on the strange ground thai
it would compel the plutocrats of Co
than to commit perjury. That is, they
would risk their immortal souls rather
than lose the almighty dollar. which
was sad commentary on what Marse
Henry Watterson lectures about with
SO much eloquence-to wit, Manners,
and Morals" Perhaps it was an over
weening desire to save the souls of the
plutocrats aforesaid by taking from
them the necessity of committing per-
jury which induced the supreme court
Of the United States to declare the in
come tax unconstitutional by that {
to decision which is an indelible
blot on that great tribunal, though 1t
was not SO stated in the opinion. That
would have been better reason than
any which the court gave for upsetting
and reversing the decision of Gen.
fury. Various legislatures have en-
deavored to reach and punish tax
dodgers and to get the taxes out of
them. with varying degrees of success.
Hon. Joseph Hill Hall of Bibb county,
Ga. proposes to introduce into the
legislature a most drastic measure
heroic treatment. as the doctors would
say-as to tax dodgers. Among other
things, he proposes to disfranchise
them. The rest of the country will
watch the operation of DR.. Halls pre-
scription with profound interest. If
it effects cure in Georgia, it is likely
to be universally adopted, thereby
making Hon. Joseph Hill Hall i'm
mortal.

VT is really too bad about King

simply awful to US who live in a coun-

that in England the king is a mere

POOR SERVICE.

For the past few weeks the people
who depend upon the San Pedro
road, and particularly those who re-
ceive their freight through Lund sta
tion, have received the poorest service
we ever remember of existing.
Freight of perishable nature is per-
mitted TO remain in the cars until il
rots. Merchandise that loses its val
ne after the season for which it is in
tended has passed, is held in the sane
manner. The receipt of shipping
bill from Salt Lake City or other
Utah points is no warrant for starting
your team to the station. II may be
weeks before you receive notice that
your freight is at the depot. Mer-
chants who discount their bills are
oblighed to pay for good weeks ne
fore the shipments are received In
short, the service is about as bum as
it we'll could be.
Claims for shortages or damages
drag on for weeks and months, and il
you finally get a settlement with the
company it is only for the Wholesale
value of the missing articles at Salt
Lake City, and the purchaser, after
laying out of his money for all this
while, is made to pay freight on the
articles he did not receive.
An employee of the road once ad
mitted to the writer that the company
paid enough money to attorneys to
fight claims for losses to pay all
claims In full. Ii would be hard to
conceive of n worse managed SYSTEM
We don't especially blame the j.
gent at Lund. He is overworkN1,

BODY IN A TRUNK.
"A Man Arrested in Chefoo, China,
Charged With Murder.

Charged With Murder.
Tie body of woman lately iden-
titled as Gertrude Dayton, was found
in trunk on board the Royal Mail
line steamer Monteagle, in Chinese
waters, and H. Adsetts, formerly a
sergeant in the American legitation
guard, at Pekin, has been charged
with the murder. He is now impris-
oned on the United States cruiser
Galveston. Adsetts will be turned
over to the British authorities and
tried in Hong Kong.
The woman was apparently stran.
gled. The trunk was taken aboard
the vessel at Hong Kong, by an
American, who represented himself
as a. passenger. It is believed that
robbery was the motive for the crime,
as Adsetts had $4,000 and some val
liable Jewels on his person when ne
was captured.
While on shipboard on the way to
Chefoo, Adsetts showed his army
napers and it was learned that ne
was the same man who committed
robbery in a house in Pekin. The
Chinese detected him that time by
his gold teeth. His gold teeth was
the cause of his capture the second
time. The authorities refuse to give
out any facts concerning the evidence
until after Adsetts has had his pre-
liminary hearing. They declare the
trial will be one of the most sensa-
tional ever heard in China.
