GOVERNMENT AND BUSINESS.

IT HE Good Government League of San Fran
= cisco is sending inquiries throughout the
country asking whether its course in prosecut-
ing alleged criminals of high and low degree OF
that city is meeting with general approval II
seems odd that such a question should be asked,
but there is an influential element in the Cali
forna metropolis which is evidently opposed TO
such prosecutions. These people hold that the
punishment or attempted punishment OF wealthy
persons charged with civil crime INJURIES bus-
mes and hurts the city in the eyes of outside in
vestors. They seem to think that San Francisco
would profit financially by abandoning the pres
ent prosecutions and permitting the men higher
up TO do as they please.
The Good Government League wants to know
whether 1t is better for a community TO permit
Nioators OF the law to 90 unpunished, pro
vded they are what are termed prominent
citizens. 1t has Heen difficult for persons at
long distance to forrq fair opinion of the trou-
bles in San FranciscCN There has been so much
cutions appear to have bAopme muddled- Some
say that one crowd OF inf ential men is making
war on another crowd, Sd that the fight has
~bcsu between faetioQsc equally bad That IS one
view scrf0fth, but we cannot sec how IT should
enter into consideration of the subject Inc
question is whether the law has been violated.
1t is fair to presume that the Good Govern
rnent League has among its members a large
number who are earnestly seeking to purify the
municipal atmosphere of San Francisco. II
selves are seeking to wreak vengeance upon 9th
er malefactors by using the Good Government
League as a means that fact should not discredit
the league or prevent it from continuing its
work.
The cry that the punishment of crooks hurts
business is an old and familiar cry 1t is heard
from those who try to befuddle public opinion,
hoping that by so doing they their friends
may escape prosecution No community can
be injured by furnishing persons who violate
the law and use municipal government as a cats
paw TO serve their selfish purposes. One might
as we'll say that murderers should not be pun
ished for fear that the prosecution of murder
ers would give a community bad name.
If the municipal government of San Fran
cisco were what it should be- it would not be
necessary for private citizens forming a Good
Government League to spend their money and
devote their time to work that the authorities
themselves should do We should think that the
very thing investors would want would be to
place their money in communities in which
every man is fairly treated, where there arc no
Determinations and where grating is reduced to
the smallest possible figure
If the Good Government League of San Fran
cisco is similar to such leagues in other cities
and we have no reason TO believe that it is diff
ferent--it is doing praiseworthy work which
should be encouraged by all friends of right
eousness regardless of whether some persons
cry that business is being damaged Business
cannot be damaged by good government.

Nothing But Milk

Van Camps is simply rich Holstein milk,
with two-thirds the water evaporated Nothing
whatever is added. Nothing is subtracted save
water.
It's not peculiar milk.
Our COWS are the finest breed. Our dairies
are in the best dairying sections. Our milk is
evaporated while it is fresh.
That slight almond favor-apparent only when
the milk is drunk colds due to sterilization.
1t means nothing added. 1t indicates simple
purity.
When you heat the milk-as in cooking or
cofee-the almond flavor disappears You have
then the natural flavor Of milk or cream, save
our surprising richness

to secure sufficient farm help although wages
of farm laborers are higher than ever before.

No Disease Germs

The bane of raw milk is disease germs. For
any germ in milk breeds with frightful rapidiy.
There may be germs of consumption from
tubercrlar cows, which are common. Infections
may come from diseased milkmen or from dirty
dairies.
These germs make raw milk the most terrible
foe of humanity. For one thing, two-thirds our
infant mortality is due to them.
Van Camps milk is gerrnless.
Our cows are inspected; so are the men who
milk them. Our dairies are sanitary. Our
buildings are built without wood. We make

are sealed. Not germ of any kind can remain

CLEARS THE COMPLEXION
OVERNIGHT
Pimples, Rash. Eruptions. ETC., Quickly
Z adicated by New Skin Remedy.

Since It's discovery, one year ago, poslam,
the new skin remedy. has, in Its extraordI
nary accomplishments, exceeded the most
ssngu!ne expectations Of the eminent spe-
c!allst who gave 1t to the world. 1t has
cured thousands o. cases OF eczema and
cradlcated facial and other dsfigureuients
OF years standing. The terrible itching at
tending eczema Is stopped with the first
application, giving proof OF It's curative
properties at the very outset.
In less serious skin affections, such as
p!mples. rash. herpes. blackhcads, acne, bar
hers itch, etc. results show after an over
night application, only a small quantity be-
ing required to effect a cure. Those who use
posam for these minor skin troubles can now
avail themselves OF the special 5O-cent pack
axe, recently adopted to meet such needs.
10th the 5O.cent package and the regular !?
lar may now be obtained in New York and
brooklyn at Hegemans, Riker's kallshs,

CHICAGO, Feb. 23-The second trial
OF the Standard Oil Company Of Indiana
on the charge Of rebating In connection
with shipments OF oil from Whiting, Ind,
to East ST. Louis began to-day In the
Federal District Court before Judge A.
3. Anderson, OF indianapolis. Judge
Anderson consented to hear the historic
case after Judge Lands and Judge
Rethea had refused to have anything to
do with It.
This is the case In which Judge Ian
dis imposed a fine of s2o.24o000 on the
first conviction. The fine was reversed
by the Court Of Appeals and tho case
remanded for new trial. The court
room held fair sized crowd. anxious
to see the wheels OF the great trial set
In motion and attorneys who hoped to
profit by the manoeuvr!ngs OF the law
yCrs In the case,
1t was seen at once from the early
questioning OF the jurors that It would
take at least two days to I'LL the box.
The men called were mostly farmers OF
northern lllinois-men OF the same type
as those who found verdict OF guilty
in the first trial.
United States District-Attorney Ed
win W. Sims announced that no delay
would be caused BY the government in
presenting It's case, Assistant District
Attorney James II. Wilkerson took
charge OF the preliminary work. The
bulk OF witnesses and the documentary
evidence will be the same as was pre-
scented In the other trial. Nearly all OF
the witnesses had been subpoenaed and
$50 veniremen had been summoned,
The defense was represented by Attor-
neys John S Miller. Alfred b. Eddy,
Mori,z Rosenthal and Chauncey Martyr,
1t is expected that Mr.. Wilkesson will
make his opening statement OF the gov
ernments case on Thursday Mr.. Sims
refused to disclose the Intended pro-
cedure OF the government in the tech
meal points involved.
A skirm.sh signalized the opening OF
the proceedings, Judge Anderson had
been on the bench but q few moments
when John S. Miller. OF the defense.
filed a motion to quash the Yenire OF ljv
men on the ground that II had been i'm
properly drawn. Sixty per cent. OF the
dents OF Chicago and but sixteen live
in Cook County. which contains two
thirds Of the population within the
courts jurisdiction.
Surprise was plainly visible on the
face OF District Attorney Sims when Mr..
Miller called attention to the personnel
OF the venire. He promptly recovered,
however. and sharply opposed the mo-
ton.

This committee will hold public hear

Is expected that q favorable report will

The resolution calls for the appoint
ment by the Mayor OF several prominent
city officials, who will pass upon the
manuscript OF all plays intended to be
presented. In cases where the censors
are in doubt from mere reading as to
the character Of play private re-
hearsals will be required, but the CEN
sors will retain the power al all times
to order off any play that might be
passed upon as understandable and later
found to be not quite the real thing from
the moral standpoint.
At the public hearing theatre mana

RA|NES TAKES UF
HUGHES AND TALKS
oF VOTERS RIGHTS
Direct Nominations Plan OF
Governor Leads Senator on
to the Constitution.

ALBANY. Feb. Accommodating on
Gov. Hughes's plan for direct nom!na-
ton, as outlined in his speech in Brook
lyn Saturday night, Senator John
Ra.nes, the Republican majority leader,
to-day issued a statement In which he
says:
"Under our Constitution every voter Is
entitled to exercise the privileges given
him thereby.
Tho only restrictions that should be
imposed are those provided for by the
Constitution and the laws passed with
the design OF preventing fraud and to
secure an honest expression OF the vot-
ers will. Any provision OF so-caled
law which inevitably DISTINGUISHES In
advance 20 per cent. or more OF the
voters, either at a general election Or at
the primaries, unless It Is absolutely
necessary TO do so in order to proven,
fraud, should be condemned.
"All provisions now In force for the
enrolment or registration Of voters do
In fact deprive large number Of voters
of their constitutional rights and such
provisions can only be justified as they
come within the provisions Of the Con.
stitution as to registration or as they
conduce to the prevention OF fraud In
nominations. The platform OF the Re.
publican party adopted at Saratoga
recognizes those principles.
They should not be departed from In
any proposed primary law. There may
be, OF course, differences OF opinion as
to what Is necessary to prevent fraud
and give full and fair expression OF
the will OF the voters, but any scheme
which unnecessarily deprives the voter
| OF the power TO express his will Is, as I
| have said, to be condemned.
THE so-called independents dc not
| constitute the people, nor are they en-
| titled to have the laws so framed that
they may exercise an undue proportion
OF political power. The rights Of a voter
| on the east side in New York City or
In the most remote section OF the county
| districts are as sacred and should be as
carefully guarded as are those ~ the
gentlemen composing the City Club OF
| New York. and their power is often eX-
ercised with at least as great a degree
OF intelligence"
