Decision of the Supreme
Court in Coal Carrying
Roads Case is Finally
Handed Down
LAW CONSTITUTIONAL
AND MUST BE OBEYED-
RAILROADS WILL PART
WITH COAL LANDS.

WASHINGTON, May s.
In the case involving the con-
stitutionality of the commodity
clause of the Hepburn rail
road rate law, the supreme
court today reversed and re-
manded the decision of the
United States Circuit court.
However, the court did not
give decisions as to the character of
the decrees which shall be entered
The supreme court holds that the
commodity clause is regulation of
commerce which congress had the
right to enact and i'm consequence
directs that the statute be enforced
and applied as it is now construed
by the Interstate Commerce Com
mission and other authorities con
cerned.
The decision of the supreme court
was unanimous, excepting that
Justice Harlan dissented on the stock
features.

DEATH FOR kIDNAPPI Nc

The recent abduction OF W,lilc
Whitla. aged years, from the school
he was attending III Sharon. Pa. the
home OF his parents. recalls the KID
mapping of Charley Ross from his home
in Philadelphia i'll 1873. when he was
aged 4 wears. and whose fate is still 4
mystery.
And there is brought home the wa,1-
ton murder, charged to the Black Hand,
of Lamana's child. a citizen OF New
Orleans. which is familiar to readers of
newspapers. This child was killed in
keeping with the threats resulting from
the failure Of the payment OF the ran
som demanded by his abductors.
The incentive of the abductors is
money. For the recovery Of his son. a
case still fresh in mind. Cudahy. the
millionaire pork packer of Omaha. paid
tcr,nediary of the kidnappers.
Some time aftcrward Pat Grove was
charged with the crime. but he escaped
conviction.
1t may be noted that kidnappers do
not steal the children Of the poor nor
the limited in means. and excepting IN
the cases of Charley Ross and the La
mana child. the kidnappers on receiving
the ransom demanded have returned the
stolen child to the parents and have es-
capped punishment.
This kidnapping business mist be sup
pressed. as next to rape there can be no
greater felony than kidnapping. For
rape, or an attempt to assault woman.
as an invasiable rule. the culprit is
lynched summarily.
II thu kidnapper is encouraged
through the hair splitting technicalities
of law and the tender mercies of the
courts so frequently misapplied. the alb
duction of children of parents having
means to pay the ransom exactcd will
become as common as the crime of lar
ceny.
Who can imagine or feel the tortur-
ing, understandable anguish of the parents
whose child has been kidnapped?
If the same child were dead, there
would be, in measure, left them the
melancholy satisfaction, the comfort Of
the Christian in the realization that their
loved one had been called to the God
who gave it, but how horrifying is thu
thought that defenseless child is held
in the grasp of villains who would tor
ture It and kill it if the ransom exacted
be denied them!
There should be only one penalty for
such crime. Death by hanging for
kidnapper and life Imprisonment at hard
labor for attempting or for schening to
kidnap.
II is time every State in the Union
were making kidnapping felony pun
ishable only by death by hanging
