of their brother-in-law, William F. By

last, within few hours after he had
been married to their sister. Miss Viola
Strothers. The 'sunwritten law" will be
the defense and the trial promises to
be the most sensational in Virginia
since the trial and conviction of former
Mayor McCue, of Charlottesville, for the
murder of his wife. Governor Swanson
has designated Judge Thomas W. Har-
rison of Winchester to preside at the
special term of court which was called
for the trial of the Strothers brothers.
Mrs. Bywater has been in a critical
condition since the night her husband
was killed, but ii is thought that she
will be able to testify for the prosecu-

trial will be the most widely attended

he who announced last evening that
he had made a study of the state
weighmaster's job and knew that all
his assistants, and a dozen or SO more
assistants. were entitled to a raise in
wages for their arduous duties in
copying down the weights taken by the
Kansas City elevator companies. Mr..
White said he was satisfied that il took
several inspectors at every elevator to
keep the greedy purchasers from
stealing few bushels. One might
gather from his discourse that the
elevator people were given to boring
n oIes in the spouts and swiping wheat
by the whole cup full. In fact he
was enough to discourage the poor
wheat raiser. In the meantime he
advocated raising the wages and in
creasing the force of state inspectors
AS the average grain raiser pays
taxes. 1t was hard for spectat tor to
see the answer. and it would take an
expert math ema tician with a strong
imagination to figure out whether it
would be cheaper for the shipper to
have an occasional bushel stolen from
him at the terminal. or, after paying
the state inspector a weighing fee. give
up little more in taxes TO finish pay
ing his salary.
Mr. White said these inspectors
could not live on less than 500 per
month because they must reside in
Kansas City, Kan, This was his best
argument, and while it did not pre-
vent the pruning of salaries. it gave
the public an insight into the miseries

Something left after selling it and pay
ing the freight. Rather than have
trouble with the great state of KAN
sas. the railroads play like they are
willing to stand for grain rate re-
duction. 1t is just as we'll to play like,
in this instance. for the reduction can
be defeated only by Inassing it up with
a lot of other railroad legislation and
giving the roads a chance to howl
''conf1scatory,'' and prove it in the
courts. There viii be trouble enough
anyway The railroads figure that a
reduction of Is per cent on grain rates
would peel them for about $500 600 per
year each. and that they might as well
have that amount as to have it distribu-
ted among the grain raisers, and 20
or 30 per cent cut will bring out a
