Parties convicted Of violating the II .
sometimes escape paying the penalty
because Of technicalitIes which have
no bearing upon the moral issue In
vOlyed. Chagrin over the collapse Of
the famous rebate case against the
Standard on corporation is natural,
but the effect Of the conviction and lay
ing Of the fine should not be lost be-
cause the judgment was reversed. The
presiding judge in the trial court de-
clared that the law had been deliber-
ateiy violated, a view which most
men probably believe to be sound. He
regretted that the law did not permit
him to place a severer penalty upon
the transgressors. The reviewing court
held that the deliberate violation Of
the law had not been clearly proved
and that the cash penalty exacted was
unjust.
The first court branded with an in
delible mark the practice which has
destroyed wholesome competition and
laid unfair burdens upon the people.
The effect Of that conviction upon the
public mind can no more be removed
than that in the case OF an embezzIer
or a murderer whose wrongdoing is
clearly established. but who may escape
through some technicality Personal
disgrace and dIshonor remain for the
wrongdoer, and the close call serves
as a warning for others who might
imagine immunity an easy thing. II
has often been pointed out that the
act under which the Standard OH re-
bate suit was brought is inadequate
to give the public justice But the
judgment of the public cannot be re-
yersed. Guilty is its verdict Under
the circumstances the plain and sim
pie course is the right one--to accept
the law as authoritatively laid down
by both courts and proceed to a new
trial Of the case In strict accordance
with the law.

Hnm-Amsrao@ms 10 swap Notes.
Following ths plan OF America and
Germany in the exchange OF intelIec-
tuaI ideas according to a definite sys-
tenn, educators are considering the en-
adjustment Of cooperation between
the universities Of this country and
those Of South America. A closer ac-
quafntance between the people OF
North and South America Is desirable
for many reasons. Perhaps the best
way to secure valuable results Is
through cultivation along regular ed.
ucational lines. TIE time seems auspi-
ciOus
II has been shown frequently that
German influence now dominates the
intellectual circles Of several lmpor-
tAnt South American states. At the
same time It appears that American
teachers are wanted there. BY coop
Grafton with the educated classes It is
believed that the German influence
can at least be restricted and that Of
the United States elevated in the same
field. The scheme for intellectual CO.
operation includes the exchange OF
university publications and scientific
bureau for the exchange Of data and
for simultaneous investigation on top
les OF interest to the scientists OF all
countries. The university systems OF
the different countries win also be
compared. Not the least useful fea-
ture Of the cooperative work win be
the exchange OF material pertaining to
the development Of political institu-
lions.
II must be plain TO the most obtuse
what reinforcement our general infiu-
ence I'm South America would receive
from the successful execution OF the
plan proposed. Community OF com
mercial interests and a resemblance IN
the form Of government win do much.
But these are influences that work
from without and have to pierce the
crust to get within. Sowing ideas in
the schools Is to generate an influence
that works from within outward and
easily leayens the lump.

The Playwrisht's Progress.

And held the Classic Unities.
The scene is laid in ancient Tyre;
Where Jove and Jones contrived their
worst
CTwas shown to Julia Marlowe firs).
Pinero Jones had small success
In pleasing Marlowes
Into a modern parlor play.
He added English tweeds, divorce,
A dash OF romance, tea, remorse
Put in a scene that mildly gripped-
And showed John Drew the manuscript.
When this came back Jones wasn't sad.
He changed the name to "Ulster,s Lad,
n English landlord. mortgeged farm.
Dudeens, colleens, and local charm
Love, romance, knockdowns, county fairs,
Some m Irish airs
And soon the drama seemed so fit
That Chauncey Olcott smiled on II.
The thing came back. Of course, and then
Up took p. Jones his ready pen.
The blarney was revised to CUFF
OF horsy flavor, rather tough;
With little Sister to protect
So Jones arranged a new locale.
And took the script to Rosa Stahl.
What need in detail to relate
The fight of Jones with tickle fate?
At last, in Drle1, q music play
Came out in name The Milk White
Way
Sans wit, sans lines. sans plot. sans sense
The bill-boards had 1t Hit Immense!'
And Jones today, beyond the seas,
Lives like q king-on royalties.
immoral Moral that 1 teach:
The Mortal who the Stars could reach
Should daily less with Sophocles
Than modern bards who write with ease.
The kin of Art that can not fail
Is Art upon a sliding scale.
Which, though II miss the gods aloot.
May please the Gardens on the Roof.
