A LESSON FOR
LOAN SHARKS"
New Orleans Times-Democrat,


The conviction and sentence by a
Connecticut court of a woman EN-
pleyed as agent by a Chicago money
lender, has been rather widely com
mented upon. Without exception, so
far as we have seen, the commenta-
tors approve both the conviction and
the sentence. The defendant was
charged with the violation of two stat
utes-one making it Illegal to charge
more than Is per cent a year for a
loan. and the other making it an Of
Tense to accept a note for an amount
greater than the sum actually loaned
Upon conviction she was fined $4,000
and sentenced to sixty days impris-
onment The case has been appealed
but those who believe that such an
example is urgently needed may be
permitted to indulge the hope that
the appellate court will find the rec
ord free from reversible error. The
only unsatisfactory feature of the
proceeding. as we understand il. was
the fact that the principal escaped
punishment The agent, in spite OF
her sex, is scarce deserving of sym
pathy.
While it is commonly believed that
the practices of the average loan
shark" transgresS the statutes in
such cases made and provided, mem
bers of the tribe have enjoyed a re-
grettable immunity from the conse-
uuences of that transgression. The
delightful occasions where one is
tripped, as was the Connecticut agent
in this caes, are rare almost as angels
visits. Their habitual escape is part
" due. doubtless, TO the fact that
their victims are not often so situated
that they dare complain; partly to the
ingenious methods of the sharks
themselves; and partly, we fear, to
IoophoIes in the statute, some OF
which make evasion of their spirit
and intent a matter Of comparative
ease
Notwithstanding the general con-
tempt in which the loan shark" is
held, and the almost unanimous ap-
plauSe which follows his occasional
exposure and conviction, il must be
confessed that he continues 10 thrive
in most cities. The New Haven case
shows he is not so invulnerable as
most people have supposed, and il is
to be hoped that the example of the
Connecticut prosecutor and court will
be emulated elsewhere. A fine of
$4,000, supplemented by sixty days
imprisonment, such as was imposed
in the case Of the lady agent" at
New Haven. would serve as a power
ful deterrent if il could be made the
Uniform punishment the country over.

A Few Words About
Election Day" Politicians.

The Journal has advocated the
teaching of the principles of govern
ment in public schools, and was espe
cially pleased when an act was passed
by the last legislature providing foT
| such a course. That such an educa-
ton is of great importance If the
| system of government adopted by the
fathers is to be maintained becomes
more evident every day.
The people must learn the meaning
of the problems which they are called
upon to solve, and they can by no pos
sibility be prepared to vote upon them
save by study and free Interchange
of opinion.
Andalusia, Alabama, has a citizen
who is a sample of thousands of
others in every state Of the union and
about whom the following paragraph
appeared in the Star of that city:
Asked how he stood on the amend
ment question. an Andalusia business
man said: six days in the week I
attend to my business affairs. On
Sunday / attend to my religion. On
If this gentleman pays no attention
to politics except on the day he casts
his vote, ne is certainly not qualified
to express a choice one way or the
other. Affairs political are intricate.
The principles of government are
deep. The selection of policies re-
quires the most careful study and
consideration It is evident that no
one of the sovereign people can be in
a position to speak inteIligently and
take part in directing either princi-
pies or policies who defers all con
sideration of them until election day.
The course pursued by this Anda-
lusia citizen, and other business
men" who will not take the time to
study the political questions confront
ing the state and nation is the chief
reason why corrupt and unpatriotic
men are elected to office and permit
ted to exercise underhand machina-
tons for the benefit of special in
terests and the hurt of the people.
The only real safeguard of the
great mass of American voters lies in
the faithful study of men and of
measures, of the principles underlying
our political structure and the various
policies which, from time to time,
present themselves. Hence the i'm
portance of making the principles of
government a portion of common
school and collegiate education, the
instilling of interest in politics in the
mind of the young; an interest which
will cling to them through life, make
them better citizens and forever do
away with the class OF suffragists
who attend to their politics" on cleo
ton day only.

Lives of Great Men
All Remind Us"

When Governor Johnson, of Mime
sofa, died, beloved and honored by all
the people of his state, the Office
passed to Adolph o. Eberhart, the re-
publican lieutenant governor. No
sooner had the new executive been
clothed with full authority when, as
expressed by The New Orleans
States:
The republican politicians set to
work TO organize an office-holding ma
chine. but they soon received a shock.
Governor Eberhart had learned from
the lamented Johnson the duties that
the chief executive OF a state owes to
the people. Il shall do nothing" he
said, when asked to aid in the move
ment. directly or indirectly, to build
up a machine for myself or for the
republican party while I am in office s.
And from this we learn the effect of
truly honest, upright life upon those
who come within the sphere of its in
fiuence- There doubtless are good
men in the republican. party; men
who are sincere in their advocacy of
policies which appear TO us both dan
gerous and dishonorable. but that a
republican politician could resist the
opportunity of forming a machine is
little short of a miracle. The main
strength Of that organization has

arguments for the removal of our

OlongapO to Cavite is of interest to
the South because ii has some bear

The principal argument against Dion

Guilty of it's defense. Those who favor
its abandonment say that it cannot
be adequately defended against for
midable attack by a garrison of less
than 900 to 1OO, 900 men. And this,
we are told, has disposed Mr.. Taft to
favor relocation of the Philippine
base.
If Olongapo is Objectionable because

shall we say of Guantanamo, an out
post in a foreign country? Certainly,
We think, the argument urged against
the Subig Bay station applies with
equal or greater force against the one
proposed for Guantanamo Bay. II

can It consistently make the doubtful
investment of millions to build up the
other? If we recall the additional OBJ
jections to Guantanamo-its isolation,
for example, or its great distance
from the skilled-laboF markets which
have been enumerated as essentials
of an efficient naval base-the conclu-
sion is almost irresistible that con-
gress will act wisely If it refuses to
