REQUIREMENTS CASES
Will Not Come Up al Tbis Term -J. E. Smiih Co vS Russell
 Co Shit Begun.

The criminal side of the superior court, June term, will open to-mor- row at 10 o'clock. The three trolley cases in which the accused are charged with neglect of duty, causing the loss of life, will not be tried this term owing to pressure of business, and because it would take all sum- mer to try it. The accused are: James Sullivan, motorman of car which ran down and killed man on South Main street last winter; John Flavin, gateman at the West Main street crossing, and John Dillon, mo- torman of the car into which loco- motive ran and killed five passengers last November. Neither will the case against the railroad engineer, Fisher, be tried. That case was tired once and the jury, it was said, stood six to six.
 The suit of the James E. Smith Lumber Co against the Russell Lum- Der Co of New Haven was begun be- fore Judge Peasley and the jury in the district court to-day. It was to recover damages of $500. The piain- tiff claimed that there was an agree- ment with the defendant by which the latter was to furnish two car- loads of lumber at certain prtce. One carload was furnished and be- fore the next was ready the price of lumber went up, and it was not sent to the plaintiff. The consequence was the plaintiff had to pay for lums Der at the increased price and there fore lost the profit that would have been made on the other carload. Half a dozen similar cases involving the same parties shall rest on the ver- dict given in this one.

knowing that these committees are
making no such Investigations, do
not intend to make them. and were
never expected to make them when
the matter OF tariff revision was re-
ferrcd to them by the Republican
majority in congress. Nothing is
clearer than the fact that while the
promulgators OF this platform are
seeking to conciliate the element in
their party which desires some de-
gree OF real tariff reduction by
promising tariff revision" on GER
tain lines, their promise Is an emp
~ one. The lines they prescribe
are precisely those on which they
professed to construct the Dingley
schedules, and their commitment
now to maximum and minimum
rates Is meaningless. for they are
we'll enough aware that the Dingley
schedules were laid on maximum
rates with the avowed purpose OF
lowering them to nations willing to
enter into reciprocal trade relations
with us. but that when President
Mckinley sought to carry out this
policy he was frustrated at every
step by an obstinate Republican
senate.

Philippine Tariff.

The tariff plank very appropri-
ately closes with the declaration
that between the United States
and the Philippines we believe in
a free interchange of products with
such limitations as to sugar and to-
bacco as will afford adequate pro-
lection to domestic interests" The
platform makers could not better
emphasize the significance OF Re-
publican promise" and "perforH'
ance." The country is here asked
to swallow the profession OF Re.
publican belief in the wisdom of
removing the tariff from Philippine
products, although IL is notorious
that every plea by Secretary Taft
for such removal or reduction was
denied by the Republican congress
at the session which it closed pre-
maturely in order that 1t might
plunge into a campaign OF promises,
so much more to it's liking than the
work of performance.
Failure or Congress.
The platform Is free in other
promises regarding trusts. rail-
roads, capital, labor and many 9TH
er things, but most of these prom
Uses the Republican congress, the
only power able to redeem Them,
has just refused to redeem.
Injunction BuncOmbc.
AS for the injunction plank
about which there was such an ado.
that is a piece of meaningless bun
combe in keeping with the other
buncombe of which political plat
forms in general are made. and OF
which the people in general know
they are made.

FATHER, DEAR FATHER!

TNATHER, dear father, come home with
me now
The clock on the dashboard strikes
one.
Don't fuss with the car any longer pupah,
You can't get the old tub to run,
The cylinders cracked and the timer won't
work,
And mothers been waiting since tea,
So tether the car to post father dear,
And come home the trolly with me!
Come home, come home-etc
Father. dear father come home with me
now,
The speed meter clocks striking two,
The night has grown colder, the rear tires
fiat,
And nanny may fret about you
The cam-shaft is twisted. the pumps out
Of gear;
Perhaps before morning shall dawn
Ma may grow real angry and want a
divorce
Come quickly for she may be gone
Come home, come home-etc
Father. dear father. fly home with me now,
The clocks striking three!-its struck
Quit
Don't fool any more with magnetic and coil;
The wires have grounded, no doubt!
The child's plea was answered-the answer
was short,
Which the night winds repeat as they
roam;
The gas tank eXploded--some noise and
some smoke,
And father and daughter blew homel
We're home We're home-etc.
