The one-year jail sentence of Chauf- feur Goetz of Stamford for having kill ed woman in that city last winter, is said to be the first jail decree in such cases in this county. In impos- ing sentence, the court said in sub- stance that while it was due punish ment for a proven offence, it might also be taken as a deterrent against reckless driving of autos. There is no doubt that the law is violated daily in this city. Reckless speeding, passing at speed, trolley cars which are receiving or discharging passen- gers, inconsiderate speed in streets congested with pedestrians and vehic- ular traffic and operation of autos by unlicensed youths who are unaccom- panied by licensed operators as the law requires. The almost inevitable result will be such cases as that of Goetz. unless his jail sentence oper- ates as an effective deterrent. Au- toists who observe the law-there are many of them-and who drive with due care under all circumstances but who are popularly classed with the reckless drivers, hope that Goetz' sen- tence will serve as deterrent and thus relieve them of an unjust classi- f1cation.

AGAIN, THE FARMER . ACCEPTS
 MAYoRIAL COMPLIMENTS

dn the course of lengthy and real
 H innocuous career the Farmer has
 beldom been confronted by the neces- kity of defending itself from oppro- {brious epithets, though it is true that occasionally some victim of the City ECourt has made faces" and used { s.hard names when the facts of his tease were published but generally snpeaking the victims of published facts Fin larger affairs have taken their tmedicine'' without vituperating the or Exan of publicity and without public Iexhibition of nausea over the uncov- tered facts.
 Since the inception of the harbor line contest, the Farmer has on di- yers occasions. in due performance of what U s. Judge Anderson declares to be a newspapers duty to the public, 1. revealed certain facts and drawn what seemed to be reasonable infer ences therefrom, and has thereby drawn down upon itself the vituper- ative anger of Mayor Lee. This re- suit was somewhat expected, for it is ever a fact that "the hit pigeon fiut- ters.''
 At one time the Farmer was char acterized as demagogic, because it ob- jected strongly to gift of $250,000 worth of harbor area to the railroad company. This characterization was gratefully accepted. because of it's basis. Now, according to the. Post, Mayor Lee states that the Farmer is :; racing with the Telegram "fer the title of the yellowest paper ifl4 the city," ! and that there are no greater graft CTS in the country thane the newspa- pers." Again, the Farner accepts such charaeterizations with gratitude. because of their basis upon the har- bor line and car barn incidents.
 But the Farmer does regret thats by resorting to opprobrious epithets, the Mayor eonfesses judgment. In legal practice, the attorney having a bad case is said to invariably resort to abuse of the other side, and juries generally understand the real mean ing of the move> and may reasonably base. their verdicts thereupon. So in Iithe present matter, the Mayor has made an injudicious move, one which does not affect the merits. ofs4he case but does cast an on1inaHs &sshadow over his candidacy. for re- election.
 We infer that he has become really angry, but he errs in unloading the entire burden. of objurgation upon the Farmer and the Telegram, for great Injury has been done to his candidacy by the Posts acceptance of the issue of approval or disapprova1 of the har- Dor line and car barn surrenders, and by the Standards statement that Ssmore along the same line" is to come in the event of his reelection.

Morton L.

A few lusty blows and the boards were removed. All three scanned the ground and suddenly Admiral Cham hers saw-a dime.
 With his most graceful bow he handed 1t to the woman.
 "Oh. thanks awfully!" she exclaim- cd, it was so good of you to help us You went to so much trouble"
 "Tn tell you ma'am." replied the Admiral without batting an eye, there re but few men in Alaska who wouldn't dig in the dirt for so much money as that" and he pointed to the dime.
 The tourist and her son depart ed and Admiral Chambers went into A. B. hall, deposited his pick-axe and mopped the sweat from his brow.
