had been treated for it: that no symptoms
Of poison had been found in his stomach.
and that his death was perfectly natural.
The state introduced testimony to show
that poison might have been used hypo-
dermically without leaving trace that
Strange had never suffered from heart dis
ease and was remarkably healthy man
The testimony also showed intimate rela-
tons between Strange's wife and DR.. Row
land for two years past. and that once, in
the west. Strange was taken with a sudden
illness which he ascribed to pills given him
by his wife.
Counsel for the state in argument set out
that they will show the purchase of poison

died and that DR.. Rowland was alone with
Strange at the time.

Mr.. FINLEY'S EXPLANATION
STATES THE ATTITUDE OF TIE
SOUTHERN RAILWAY.
Describes Action in Combating the
New Law in North Carolina-Mat-
ter in the Courts.

President W. w. Finley Of the Southern
Railway Company has issued a statement
on the action of the courts of North
Carolina in the matter of the arrest of
ticket agents of his company for alleged
violation of the state lew requiring the
company to charge not more than 2A cents
mile for carrying passengers.
When the law was passed." says Mr..
Finley, lit was decided the North Carolina
corporation commission had Jurisdiction to
enforce it. The Southern found that such
a rate would be virtual confiscaton of
property. The Supreme Court has held that
In such case the railroad is permitted
the right Of filing suit in a federal court,
making the commission defendant. with
the view of having a comprehensive In
vestigatiOn made into the situation.
This law was to go into force July 1,
and some time prior to that time the
Southern filed such a suit in the United
Estates circuit court. Judge Pritchard pre-
peal for an injunction, and the state was
represented by counsel.
After careful investigation. the court
ordered the company to continue charg
ing the old rate, and to Issue coupons with
each ticket emitting the holder to the
difference between the new rate and the
old should the new. be found to be legal.
and proper bond was filed the court
could pay for such coupons in the event
that the new law was adopted. Thus, the
public is fully represented In litigation and
is fully guarded against pecuniary loss, and
l cannot imagine that fairer arrangement
could be made.
Similar suits have been filed and are
pending in several states in the Union,
and in no other cases have there been
any efforts on the part of the state courts
to Interfere with the orderly progress Of
law: and If We are to have government of
law and not of man, 1t seems this should be
the method of procedure
The state has no jurisdiction to settle
matters of this kind finally. and practically
contiscate railroad property.
1T is a contradiction in terms to say
of any person or corporation that filing
a suit in court. and asking for an orderly
of any matter. is itself. a violation or
defiance of law. If an appeal to a court
of justice is a violation of law. then all
courts should come u an end"

Keep in mind the three things that the name of the order indicates: Edu- cation is the principal thing. hence it is the first in the ordination of nature. The child commences to educate him. self first of all things. His big, curi- ous eyes open to everything, and he learns this and that thing until one day he stands among men as a man. After education, cooperation comes as a natural sequence. The growing man wants help, and he has educat- ed himself so far that he knows that if he would get help, he must be will, ing to do something for others to .n- duce them to help him.. After this the step to unionism-which is another name for organized helpfulness-is easy and natural. The thing is to edli- cate the unlettered farmer up to the point of his need of the cooperation of his fellows, and as soon as he sees the benefit of this thing, the balance is dead easy.
