LABOR IN LUXURY
QUEEN NEVER KNEW
Of Agriculture Wilson
Adds That Westerners Beat
the East in Spending.

WASHINGTON, Sept. little aver
age laborer is today living better than
Queen Elizabeth did in her time said
Secretary Wilson of the department of
agriculture today. He was discussing the
prosperous condition of the farmers of
the West and the high age of the
workingman in the East.
Take the meat bills of the laborer
In Washington today" he continued.
You will find that they eat meat three
times a day-most of them-and what
is more they are not content with any
kind; they want the best cuts. He a
"a ford them"
Secretary Wilson was asked II the
Western armer were really investing
such large sums of money in automo-
biles.
There is too much truth in those
reports he responded. THE farmer is
out of debt; he has paid for his farm,
his fences his machinery. He has
money in his pockets and big crops
continue to come in. He Is afraid to
invest in Eastern securities, lest a year
might bring trouble there. AS a result,
he puts his money in luxuries, instead
of channels that might give a return.
Why, folks in the East do not know
what luxuries are; they must go West
to And that out"

SAYS he PAID $3.50
FOR PIE IN PRISON
Charge Against Guards Also
Tells of $1,000 for Eve
ming StrOlls.

PITTSBURG, Pa, Sept. 1I.-Charles
Smith, of S~mithville, near Uniontown,
VINO is sojournlng in the Western Peni-
Tertiary, has found it the most ex-
pensive hotel he ever encountered, and
according to the guards Smith is the
most liberal Upper they ever met. War
den John Francis says a number Of
the guards may find themselves in cells
instead of carrying rifles.
About a year ago Smith shot his son
in-law, William Wisner. He was sem
fenced to the Western P~enitentiary. Ac-
cording to Warden Francis he had not
been there long before certain of the
guards learned Smith had a desire for
pie and he was wealthy.
There Immediately was a corner in
pie, which resulted in the delivery to
Smith of two pieces a week for $3.50, Or
at the rate of S125 a piece.
Smith wanted whiskey and was fur
nished with seven pints of 1t each
week. For this the guards demanded a
tip of 5000 a week.
The piece dc resistance came when
Smith, who Is fond of the night air, de-
cided that he would like to take an
airing each evening when the warden
or head of the prison was out of the
way.
During Johnson's term this was easy.
Smith strolled zach night in Pittsburg,
But when Warden Francis took
charge Smiths walks had to be cur
tailed and then some of the prison
guards were unable TO divide 81 900 A
week, the price. it is said. Smith paid
for the privilege of seven evening walks
each week.

CUSTOMS RECEIPTS
PROSPERITY SIGN
Newark's Collection of Federal
Tariff Increased $4,000 in
Last Five Years.

As indicating the prosperity of New
ark's manufacturing and other indus
tries, no other fact is more significant
than that the receipts of the local GUS
toms Office have increased almost two
and a half times In the past five years,
from the sos, 900 receipts from duties in
1904, to 19U9's 1924, 600. The business has
grown to such an extent that for some
time past the need of a customs house
broker has been clearly evident, n
considerable relief vas given the local
authorities when a New York firm es-
tablished a branch office in the local
Federal building recently. Fred Rad
waner Is the attorney representing the
concern, and in a few weeks it is ex-
pected that he will establish permanent
quarters near the custom offices.
h work of a custom-hopse broker
is made necessary by a statute of the
customs department, which says that
the government officials shall not in
any way direct the making out of the
importers declarations of the value of
his goods, but that the declarations.
already prepared, shall be handed in
at the window of the office of the Gus
toms house. Regular importers have
clerks who make 1t their business to
know how to make out in proper form
all necessary blanks, but it is the &C.
casional importer that has trouble with
the red-tape features of a shipment.
For the benefit of such the brokers are
permitted to have offices in or near the
custom house. where. for a fee, all de-
tails are attended to for the importer.
The main business of the local office
lies in a variety of materials, ranging
all h way from dainty Irish lace to
the great ship loads of timber and
lumber. The lumber Is checked off and
weighed under the supervision of the
customs-house experts at the yards
where the vessels unload, and the duty
figured from the data thus obtained.
Other materials, such as lace, embroid-
cries and special metals are taken to
the custom house in the Federal build
ing, where value Is fixed by the ap-
praisers. Few Newarkers realize what
an extensive work this Is, and how
much in the past few years 1t has
grown. The list of the biggest imports
of the local port includes hides, plas-
ter rock, faces. embroidery, asphalt.
lumber, Hath, wires, miscellaneous
metals and lead pencils.

not know Whit to do. But all sensible
men want to be insured In a sound and
reliable company. Mr.. Lindabury,
counsel for the exchange. will advise
us as what sahll be done"
The suit, which was decided yester-
day by the highest court In the State,
was begun abodt three years ago by
Malcolm MaoLear, the then city at
torney of Newark, to dissolve the So
called insurance trust, which. 1t was
alleged by Mr.. MacLear. controlled
business in Newark and regulated
premiums. 30 that all of the insurance,
particularly on schools. was at the
same rate. it was necessary to go
outside of the city and the members
of the exchange to procure fire insur-
ance at a lower figure.
The syllabus of the decision of the
Court of Errors, prepared by Justice
Garrison, reversing Niee-Chaneellor
stevens, and which decision has
just been upheld, is as follows: IF Il
corporation engaged in a business thai
Is affected with a public interest con
tracts 10 enter upon a line of conduct
In respect TO such business. that tends
TO affect siich public interest injuriously
and IS contrary to public policy, such
contract is ultra wires such corporation
and may be restrained in equity at the
suit of the Attorney General without
regard To whether or not actual injury
has resulted to the public.
The business of fire insurance, as it
Is carried on in this State BY corpora
tons created, lice nsed and regulated by
The state. Is a business affected with a
public interest within the meaning of
This rule.
"A contract in restraint of trade en-
tered into by fire insurance companies,
the necessary effect and the actual re-
suit of which Is to control such bust
ness within a certain area, and within
such area to fix and regulate prices and
to limit or eliminate competition to the
injury of the public, is contrary to pub
lie policy.
THE rule in equity that contracts in
restraint of trade are merely unenforci-
bic does not require that the parties so
contracting be deemed to be immune
from ordinary equitable remedies when
their violation of public policy is d.
rected at and actually works a public
injury"
