posToFFlcE FRAUD oE I'ss.
House Passed a Bill Providing Fo'
judicial Review.

Washington, Jan. 8. The house
passed bill providing for judicial
review of orders excluding persons
from the use of the United States mail
facilities, after debate lasting most
of the session. This debate was par
ticipated in by Representatives. Crum-
packer Qnd), the author of the bill;
overstreet Qnd), Dalzell (Pa.), Lit.
tlefield (Me), Perkins IN. ", and
Mann Qll.), who led the opposition.
In arguing that the bill should be
passed, Mr.. Crumpacker said the pow
er given the postmaster general, un-
der the statutes, to issue fraud orders
was not all in the nature of admins
trativer discretion. 1t partook rather
of the nature of police power for the
regulation of the morals of the people
of the country.
Mr. Mann read several advertise
ments which he said seemed to show
that concerns were still doing busi-
ness which ought to come within the
scope Of fraud orders. He said the
bill was defective and that there
should be no. permitting doubtful con-
Germs to fleece the public.

Finding Most Interesting Chapters.
Women as class are credited with
haylng no scruples about opening q
book at the middle or end or anywhere
else they may expect to find the most
interesting chapter. A frequent fem
inlne visitor at libraries was overheard
revealing to a friend of her own sex
her secret Of locating at once the most
thrilling chapter in any book, no mat
ter how unfamiliar one may be with
It, .You simply close it tight" she
said, "and glance along the edge Of the
leaves. 1t is seldom, indeed. that you
do not notice distinct line, or even
more than one, caused by number
of edges soiled slightly more than
those about them. Open the book there
and you have the best chapter A
librarian explained this by saying that
the reading and rereading Of the par.
ticularly interesting chapters of book
naturally cause certain pages and their
edges to be more soiled. OF course the
longer the book has been In clrcula-
ton the more distinct are the Marks

Declare d Not Unconstitutiopsl
by Court Of Last Resort.

Justice Ho|0<s Disposed Of All the OBJ.
lectIonf NJ the statute-case vas
Brought by Z Citizen of conneetioui
to- secpfe reversal Of Rulings Of
New York courts. Vs.
Washington Jan. SIN deciding
the case OF Albert ]. Hatch versus Ed
ward Reardon. the latter peace Off
Ger of New Y&k, favorably. to Rear
don, the supreme court of the United
States passed upon the validity of the
stock transfer tax law, in effect hold
ing it. to be not in contravention of the
constitution and thus sustaining the
decision Of the supreme court of New
york.
The case vas brought b Hatch OF
a writ of error to secure a,reversal Of
the rulings Of the New York courts
by which he was refused release or
writs of haseas corpus. The statute
imposes a fine and Imprisonment for
failure to pay the requisite fee on al,
stock transfers made in tie state.
Hatch is citizen of Connecticut and
1t is charged that in June 1905, he sold
to another Connecticut man some
shares without affixing lamps. When
arrested Hatch Immediately applied
for a writ of habeas corpus and car.
ried the matter to the court of last re-
sort
The question raised vas that the en-
forcement of the lawl would deprive
one of liberty AID property without
due process of law, 9hile it was ar
gued that the New York state consti'
tuition had also been violated in that
the amendment to the tax laws under
which proceeding fails had lain for
only one day instead Of three on the
tables of members II the New York
legislature.
Justice Holmes dilposed of all the
objections to the Nek York statute in
succession. OF the contention that a
tax on sales is tat on property, he
said in part: "Whalever the right OF
parties engaged in commerce among
the states. sale fpends in part on
the law OF the stfe where it takes
place for its validit, and in the courts
of that state, at leIst for the mode OF
proof No one WOULD contest the
power to enact fatute of frauds for
such transactions. Therefore the state
may make parties pay for the help oil
its laws, SD far # this objection is
concerned"
With reference tb the argument that
the tax is an Interference with inter
state commerce he outlined the courts
position as followsl
There is not ihadow of ground
for calling the transaction described
such commerce. The bargain was no
affected in any way, legally or prac
tically. by the fact that the partie!
happened to have come from another
state before they made it. 1t does no
appear that the petitioner came int
New York to sell his stock, as 1t wa'
put in his behalf. 1t appears onll
| that he sold after coming into thu
state. But we are far from implying
that 1t would have made any differ
ence if he had come to New Torl
with the supposed intent before any
bargain was made.p ~.
