WHY NOT STOP THAT ITCH?
The Druggists Of Richmond Assure
Relief with Every rs Cent
Bottle.

The druggists Of Richmond say
that they have found inoisputable
proof that eczema can be cured-not
in one or two cases, but in scores CT
cases which they have studied.
We would, of course, not think of
making such a recommendation to our
neighbors and patrons were it not that
years and years of success with D. D.
D. Prescription enable us to speak of
this remedy with confidence. 1t is a
gentle, soothing wash with the mild
oil of wintergreen as a base. All the
cures seem to be permanent. at any
rate, a trial bottle at % cents will
take away the itch at once-instant!y
We are sure of this.
Ask any druggist in Richmond.

ROAD SIGNS

In the immense amount of literary
effort being expended in the interest ct
good roads, very little is said about the
utility Of sign posts that would guide
the traveller on his way The guide
board is much more common on the
roads of New England than in this
part of the country. In the rural re-
gions surrounding Washington. espec-
tally to the south and along both banks
Of the Potomac. little provision is made
for the stranger. The people of the
locality take 1t for granted that every.
body knows where every road leads to
and from, and knows how far he must
travel to reach his objective point, or
that the stranger, not knowing these
things, may come across or hunt up a
native who will supply the informa-
ton.
Guide posts would serve the purpose
better. II the county authorities did

how little credence can be given to To-
cal estimates of distance. 1t often

Country roads are becoming more
and more to be public ways. The in
creasing use Of the automobile each
year enables growing number Of per.
sons to use country roads. and to pen.
citrate farther and farther into the
land. The rural mail routes traverse
nearly every country road in these
parts, and as these are really post
roads. it might not be a bad idea If the
postal authorities should promote
some ample and uniform guide post
system.
The cost of construction and main
tenance of guide posts would be trivia
when compared to their usefulness
They would not alone be helpful to the

AVIATION WEEK

~ GORGE b. HARRISON. for whom
1T with the utmost confidence we
" predict a most brilliant future
and an international reputation with
the gradual evolution" Of aviation to
higher and higher standards of excel
lence and security, describes it con-
cisely as the cleanest sport in the
world" Not only is it that, but it is
also the most important sport in the
world, inasmuch as it will usher in the
era of the abolition of war.
Mr.. Harrison and all other expert
enced aviators realize the certainty
that aviation will produce a change in
national and international conditions
which will end war, even If that con-
summation most deyoutly to be wished
should be preceded, as the Prophet
Tennyson said it would, by a "ghast-
ly' battle in the air. One such fight
will be enough. Tennyson prophesies
it will be succeeded in short order by
the parliament of man, the federation
Of the world
Los Angeles aviation week will be
the greatest event of its kind in the
history of the art. Some of our local
aviators are somewhat worried by the
efforts of san Francisco and other
peevish after-thought places 10 graft
on Los Angeles enterprises and secure
some of the glory or even to hog the
whole program. We do not think such
attempts should be taken any more
seriously than the squalls and squawks
Of spoiled brats are taken. They show
a deficiency in ethical qualities.
But who looks for ethics in infants?
Let US be reasonable about it and ac-
cept the northern efforts as gratifying
testimonials to the supremacy of Los
Angeles and the efficacy of the Los
Angeles way" of doing business.
Woud-be rivals will help advertise
Los Angeles, the principal aviation
center of the west.
The presence of President Bishop Of
the Aero Club of America and the in
ternational aeronautic federation will
help give aviation week the official
status and prestige to which it is en-
titled

UNCONSTITUTIONAL
METHODS

n UR correspondent VIM. &C. Owen
has called attention to unjust
~ and cruel methods adopted by
eastern police for obtaining alleged
confession" from distracted and help
less prisoners. This peculiar form of
barbarism is so distinctly illegal and
unconstitutional that we should think
a mere statement of it would be suf..
flcient to arouse the authorities to the
necessity for ending it.
In taking the methods described by
Mr., Owen, the ignorant and un-Amer-
lean New York police (some of whom
are recruited straight from Ellis ISL
and'O are acting in fragrant violation
of article V of the amendments to the
constitution of the United States, which
says no person shall be compelled in
any criminal case to be a witness
against himself" To compel witness
to make a confession" is to compel
him to furnish testimony against
himself.
We are astounded to learn the au-
thorities of New York have not for
hidden this irregularity long ago. 1t
was one of the police crimes discussed
and condemned by the Lexow COM
mittee. No police officials in any city
of the United States have any right to
compel a prisoner to testify against
himself, and a police extorted confess
sion is so fagrantly unconstitutional
we should think it would be rejected
by any court on its demerits. If
prisoners alleged confession" is not
testimony against himself, then, in
the name of common sense, what
is it?
Turning again to the American citi-
zens political Bible, the constitution
Of the United States, we find, in ar
ticle VIII Of the amendments: "EX-
cessive bail shall not be required nor
excessive fines imposed, NOR CRUEL
AND UNUSUAL PUNISHMENTS IN
FLICTED."
The torture Of the third degree is
"cruel and unusual punishment" and
it is inflicted not only in defiance Of
the constitution, but in advance of
trial, while the accused is still pre-
sumptively innocent.
The subject of Mr.. owens letter
should not be debatable. The out
rageous methods to which he calls at
tention would not be possible were
the people of the United States con-
scious of Americanism and jealous of
their constitutional guarantees and
safeguards. This consciousness and
the added and keener responsibility
that will come with II cannot be eX-
pected, nay, cannot be hoped for, un-
til Americanism is taught in the pub
lie schools.
Los Angeles herald., 1909-12-24
FIGHTING JUSTICE

CHARLES w. MORSE, who was
convicted of violating the ma
~ tional banking laws. has fought
justice by means utterly beyond the
reach Of the ordinary. that is TO say,
the poor convict.
This is not fair. Why should a rich
criminal receive special consideration
denied to a poor criminal? The deten-
tion of Morse in the Tombs should not
and probably will not be reckoned as
part of his sentence. A prisoner like
Morse, while in the Tombs, is not by
any means to be pitied. His plight Is
neither hapless nor hopeless.
There are some apartments in the
Tombs prison that may be described as
elegant suites" These are always at
the disposal of extra fine" prisoners;
while the veriest rascal who ever stole
a widows last mite may have the
choicest foods sent in to his table and
the finest wines served with the food
if he have the ready cash with which
to pay the bills, or If he have friends
who will do the ordering" for him On
the outside.
In order to impress on our readers
the ingenuity and resourcefulness with
which a rich prisoner may fight his de-
serts and set at naught a trial pro-
ceeding that would Cook the goose"
Of any ordinary or poor prisoner, we
quote the Associated Press dispatch:
THE petition of Martin w. Littleton,
counsel for Morse, seeking an amend
ment 10 the mandate Of the circuit
court of appeals, which affirmed his
conviction, was handed down giving
Morse the right 10 apply TO the circuit
court for a new trial. The court Of
appeals, however, states the circuit
court is not bound TO entertain a mo-
tion for a new trial. The simple right
TO apply therefor is granted"
For the sake Of American liberty
and all that is included in that term,
we think it is a blessing the circuit
court is not BOUND TO entertain the
motion. This honorable court is not at
the mercy Of Rich Convict Morse and
his counsel!
