SOME SARCASM BY us.

Just as we warned the Mayiield
Messenger, the gambling parapherna'
liza confiscated by the police was used
for playing tiddlety-winks; because
Judge Cross released the defendant
in the police court. OF course, the
excuse was that there were no wit
nesses against the defendant. AS
Judge Cross said, he was tired OF
continuing the cases on account OF
the absence of witnesses and he was
determined to dispose of the case
without delay. Sucn wise determine
tion on the part Of Judge Reed in the
circuit court would soon clear up the
criminal docket at minimum ex-
pense to the state. Judge Reeds plan
is. when witnesses fail to appear, to
file away the case against the pris-
oner until such a time as service may
be mad on the witnesses. Sometimes
he even Furnishes witnesses for not
appearing. The delay and expense OF
TINS plan Is easily understood. Jhe
state has to pay the expenses of sum-
moning the witnesses their witness
fees, and the cost of feeding and
maintaining the prisoner when con-
victed. All this expense would be
avoided If he followed the plan
adopted in police court. There would
be no witness fees, If he would wait
until the witnesses disappeared be-
fore calling the case, and there
would be no expense of feeding and
maintaining the prisoner, because
the prisoner would be acquitted, II
no witnesses appeared against him.
Economy is the watch word, and
what does the possession of gambling
paraphernalia indicate. forsooth?

what osteopathx WIN no.

There are but few people who have
not heard of Osteopathy. also Of
some of its achievements. But there
are far too many who have accredit-
ed it with being good for only those
conditions from which they have
been cured. or which have come un,
der their observation. Not infrequent.
ly there is mutual surprise when one
who was cured of rheumatism meets
another who has been cured Of asth-
ma or constipation. This is homely
but very true illustration.
Personally. l have cured chronic
cases of constipation, Rheumatism

headaches for people whom you

Two Cent Fares.

Lansing Mich. March s. That
the bill for cent fares on the rail-
loads of the lower peninsula and 9
cent fares on those of the upper pc
ninsula will be passed almost unan-
imously by the senate and probably
with little opposition in the house OF
representatives was made evident to-
day at hearing before the senate
railroad committee. Gov. Warner
Railroad Commissioner Glasgow, and
delegations of commercial travellers
argued for its passage, the favorable
experience of Ohio and other states
under 2 cent fares Being cited. Rep
resentatives OF railroad brotherhoods
appeared in opposition, fearing a re-
duction in working forces and wages.
Action will be taken by the senate af-
ter another hearing next week, when
passenger agents will protest.

ness Presldent Mckinley appointed
Lyman J. Gage, who had been at the
head of great Chicago bank. and he
was succeeded by Leslie NJ. Shaw.
who had been banker in Iowa. Now
comes Mr.. Cortelyou. who has never
worked In a bank in any capacity.
and whose knowledge of the business
lis purely theoretical.
The selection of man whom they
regard without experience is spoken
of unfavorably by some bankers.
They think one OF their own kind
should have been appointed. They
forget that the three secretaries OF
the treasury whose names are most
familiar--H Hamilton, Gallatin and
Chase were not bankers, although
Gallatin became one after he left the
department Each OF these men had
great financial problems to deal with,
and each of them showed that 1t is
not necessary to be banker in order
to grapple successfully with such
problems. Indeed, until within a
comparatively recent period the po-
sition of secretary of the treasury
was reserved for men who had gained
political prominence. John G.. Car
isle was the last secretary taken
from that class.
President Roosevelt has picked out
a man who has never been In con-
gress or in a bank and who is not
appointed in order that the state he
comes from may have recognition. f"
He is the personal choice of the pres
ident, who probably is of the opinion
that Mr.. Cortelyou will introduce
business methods in the multifarious
bureaus of the department. That is
greatly needed. Mr.. Cortelyou may
not be able to discuss. or may not
care to discuss, the question Of an
elastic currency. Congress pays no
attention to what any secretary says
on the subject. But Mr.. Cortelyou
is an admirable organizer. He has
displayed his ability in the depart
ment of commeree and labor and in
the postoffice department. There is
"a vast amount of red tape in the
treasury department which ought to
be got rid Of
Naturally the Wall street people
are curious to know whether the new
secretary will show an accommodate
ing spirit when they ASK MIN to come
to the "relief of the money market. .
They will find out in due time. His
predecessor, while ready TO extend aid
when business interests required it,
was not willing to accommodate tho
speculative gentry, and Secretars
Cortelyou doubtless will be no easict

Platitude about harmony between
the public and the administration of
the schools, coupled with the decla-
ration that, 1--WE do not know where
in the fault lies, nor do we care, now
that it is past" will accomplish
nothing for the advancement of the
system. Not knowing wherein the
fault lies " how can one arrive at the
conclusion that at is past?" We
wish to go to the bottom of the
trouble and find wherein the fault
lies" that we may eliminate 1t. We
have published the declaration of
the very element, now denouncing
the administration, that It built up
the schools to a high state of per-
lection, and If there Is apparent any
lack of discipline 1t mas not come
from a want of cooperation between
the administration and the public,
but from the attacks of a vicious
press on the school administration,
and the conduct of the school board
in failing to sustain the administra-
ton. When teacher becomes dere-
lict, the board sustains her or him,
against the enforcement of jisci-
pline. When pupil and teacher be-
come involved in dispute, the
board consistently upholds the pupil,
and we do not hesitate to assert that
the members of the school board act
ually drove a member of the High
school faculty to resign on this very
account.

Position between editorial dashes
under the mast head of newspaper
does not make an editorial. An eli
torial is the direct expression of an
opinion by a newspaper, and It makes
no difference whether that expression
is made on the editorial page or
somewhere else under a news head.
The paper is responsible for the opin-
ion, and the declaration that it was
in the news column does not excuse
the editor. If he permits his repor-
tiers to take up one side Of a contro-
versy in the news columns. while ne
plays fast and loose with the ques-
ton on his editorial page, that
shows lack of discipline and adj
mnistrative ability, marks the pa
per as pusilanimous, and its policy
as contemplate.

While several state legislatures, by
the enactment of laws, taxing bache-
Tors, reducing the number of plumes
in a woman's hat, and by various
other means, are encouraging matri-
mony, South Dakota, the flume. as il
were. of the American matrimonial
system, has accomplished more in
one day to discourage family hfe,
than all the other states combined
can remedy in years. AS long as
there was the possibility of fleeing
to South Dakota and freeing oneself,
almost automatically, from the gall
ing yoke, the chances of matrimony
were reduced practically to a mathe-
NAUTICAL quantity. But now the pros
pective Divorce must dwell year in
South Dakota before filing suit. Prob
ably cupidlty dictated this law, but
to anyone who has ever been In South
Dakota, the idea of years sojourn
there is almost as intolerable as some

ROADS
MUST ALL BE REBUILT. SAYS e..
III. HARTMAN.
Six Foot Gauge and Heavier Rails
With Steel Cars For Future
Service.

Washington, March S.-Following
his announced intention of taking the
public into his confidence to a greater
extent than he has done heretofore,
IL. II. Hartman, the railroad mag
nate. who has been in Washington
for six days, let ii be known this al
ternoon that he would be interviewed.
Mr.. Hartman apparently sought to
have the impression made that he
was a human being, and not altogeth-
err a soulless, secretive corporation
whose purpose is to crush out the
Lives of the common people.
In answer to the first question Mr..
Hartman refused either to confirm
or deny the report in Wall street to-
day that he had purchased the Read
ing road. He said he was not inter-
ested in Wall street and could not be
denying rumors which are constantly
emanating from there, because, he
added, sometimes some rumor
might come out of Wall street which
I would not want to deny"
He did say. however, that he had
not purchased or sold a share of
stock of any kind since he had been
in Washington.
Roads Must All BE Rebuilt.
Discussing railroads in the abstract
Mr.. Hartman said: THE railroads
of the United tSates will have to be
rebuilt with much heavier rails and
witha gauge Of six feet instead of the
present one of A feet SIX inches. This
change will come within the next ten
years. and the roads of 1917 will be
as much in advance of the roads OF
1907 as the roads of today are an i'm
lprovement over the roads of 1897
Either locomotives of such size that
nobody now can Imagine them, or
electric engines will have to be pro-
vided.
81 think in time the latter will be
the more feasible. The locomotive
with the present gauge of tracks has
reached its capcity The freight car
of the present will have to give way
to an all steel freight car, which will
,be two feet wider, two feet higher
and several feet longer. 1t will at the
same time be possible to make car
much lighter in proportion to its car
riage capacity than the present car.
and this will effect great saving in
the cost of1transportation. rrHfa7t +
Grades will be reduced every
where, tunnels will have to be en-
larged, bridges must be rebuilt to
make them equal to the strain of the
Increased loads that will pass over
them. To do aid of these things will
cost billions of dollars-nobody can
tell how many billions" ~ es
