Another railroad in Pennsylvania has been taken from under the operation of the two-cent fare law by court de- cision. It is a little road of narrow gauge, running through portions of Greene and Washington counties. The court in the latter county holds the law to be imperative as applied to that road, for the reason that it so reduces the company's revenues as to be an in- justice to the stockholders. The judges maintain that 6 per cent dividend should be allowed the stockholders, and that in addition 8 per cent annual fund should be created for extraordi- nary emergencies and to make better ments. The two-cent rate did not per init this, and SO the road can charge what 1t pleases as long as that decision stands.

For the real origin of that motto, however. which expresses so tersely the temper of the National Protective asso- citation, and which has captivated the New York Sun. we must go back nearly nineteen hundred years. It is recorded in the gospel according to Mark that there was in synagogue a man with an unclean spirit who, when he heard One teaching with authority and not as the scribes, cried out, "Let us alone; what havo we to do with thee7 Art thou come to destroy us7" The next time the National Prosperity association or the New York Sun prints with it's en- thusiastic approval the motto, "Let us alone,' we trust that it will give credit to the man with the unclean spirit.

WELL DONE GOOD AND
 FAITHFUL SERVANTS

Last night Globes first city council completed its labors and on next Mon day night will transfer the responsioii- ties of the city administration to the newly elected members, and will then step down and out, leaving
 A good record.
 The Silver Belt takes great pleasure and feels it sense of duty to compli- ment the members, and, as whole, heartily comments the work of the body. Much good has been accomplish ed and no particular harm has been done.
 If there be any offensive ordinances on the statute books of the city, it is up to the new council to repeal them and give the people the relief needed.
 If the old members have erred in the conduct of the affairs of the city, the new members should profit thereby.
 But all in all, the work has been very acceptable, and is of character that will bear taking the thread and continuing on the same path by the new board.
 whilo recognized as republican body, 1t was a republican body only SC far as a majority of it's individual mem. bers were of that political persuasion The work of the council has been fol the people, and no effort has been made to advance the interests of the party further than the building of record that would meet with the endorsement of the voters and taxpayers. The cleo ton of a democratic council cannot bt accepted as protest against the rule Of the men who have concluded their of fcial careers, at least for the present It was an appointed board, and named by a republican board of supervisors Globe is normally democratic. Had ar election taken place year ago there is little doubt that a democratic board would have been chosen by the people so that the vote of last Monday wa' rot vote of protest, neither was 1t vote of condemnation, but it was vott along strictly party lines, and the dem ocrats possessed the greatest strength That's the story in nutshell.
 To the retiring members the Silver Belt joins in a chorus, composed of all the people, in saying
 We'll done, good and faithful ser wants; a greater demonstration of ap preciation, though deferred, may come when it is possible to compare and contras. records.

The necessity for an active truant of- icer has long been apparent in Globe and the new council should take this matter up before the resumption of school in tho fall and see that a man is employed. There can be no blame at tached to the inaction of the duly elected officer. The law provides no compensation for his services and he could scarcely afford to neglect work for which he is paid Council, however, can solve this problem very easily. A policeman should be, appointed and as- signed to look after this important work. During the past school year there has been at least one hundred chil. drcn in Globe-some employed and some idle and lounging about the streets, who should have been In school. The law is all right save in the matter of conpen
 sation, and the remedy suggested will put it in perfect working order.

is ENTITLED TO
DOVER RIGHTS
PENNINGTON WOMAN GETS FAV-
ORABLE DECISION IN SU-
PREME COURT

| Des Moines, April s. - Out of a
labryinth of marriages, divorces and
returns, the supreme court of Iowa
has figured it out that Louisa Smith
.of Pennington is entitled to her dow
er interests and rights in several
farms In Pottawattamie county which
her late husband sold during his
twenty years. desertion of her.
Both were married before their
| marriage to each other.
Both were deserted by their spouses
and both were married during the 20
years desertion of the husband. The
decision Of the supreme court gives
to Mrs. Smith the wife's interest in
extensive properties
Married and Deserted.
Louisa Smith married man named
Sylvandors at Pennington in Lee
| county, in 1872. Three or four months
after marriage he deserted her. He
went to darlington, or said he was
going there. and never again appear
/ ed. Frank E. Smith was then living
with woman named "Nettie," who
subsequently left with travelling man
and never appeared again. In 1875
Louisa Sylvandors and Frank E.
Smith were married in La Grange,
Mo-, according to Mrs. Smiths testi-
mony, though there is no record. They
lived together as husband and wife at
Pennington till 1882. when Smith left
saying he was going to Council
Bluffs for short time. He never
reappeared until 1902.
Badly Tangled Case.
There were four suits instituted in
the courts by Mrs. Smith to recover
her dover rights to the land in Potta-
wattamie county sold by her husband
during his twenty years absence
Those who bought the lands resisted
and claimed that Mrs Smith was new
err legally married to Smith, because
the death of her first husband was
never proven and that her marriage
further operated against her claim
The district court decided in their ia
vor The supreme court reversed this
and decided in her favor
The supreme court holds that Syl-
vandors was dead after seven years.
according to the custom of the courts
and the law of Iowa because he new
er reappeared subsequently to dis
prove his DEAN. 1t hOldS that the
marriage of Mrs. Sylvandors and
Smith was legal because they lived to-
gether and acknowledged each other
as husband and wife. That their mar
riages during the twenty years were
illegal because both were living but
that since the spouses Of both died
this left their relations the same and
that they were still legally married
and the wife had dover right to the
farms.
