Contrast In Justice.

''The justice meted out in the minor courts of Alabama is farcial to say the least in a large number of cases" re- marked a contractor who is doing quite an amount of paving work in certain municipality in Greater Birmingham. For instance. a negro working for me was arrested few days ago for stealing 4o- cent whip. He was found guilty and fined s2.5O with costs equalling 1t by the re- oorder of the small town. This In itself was all right, and have no protest. Im- mediately after the negro was tried, how ever one of Brmingham's most promi- nent citizens appeared for speeding his automobile. He admitted that he had vio- lated the law and that he might have gone as fast at least as f5 miles an hour. After a few minutes talk, however, the case against him was nolle pressed. This doesn't look like justice to me. The ne- gro had hurt no one but himself by stealing the whip. but the speeding au- tomobilist had placed in danger the life of every child and adult in the town, but he went free while the negro was nned.

NEW ENCLAND'S LAND.

1t is safe to say that the commercial
oppo rtunity for fruit raising in New Eng
and is not utilized to the extent of one
tenth of one per cent. At least ninety
nine per cent of the fruit bought for
home consumption in New England is
raised in the south or the west. 1t
might not only all be raised in New Eng
land, but great quantities might be eX-
ported or shipped to other points.
The same is true of many of the other
fruits, and of nearly all the vegetables
that are shipped in from the south and
the west. Pears, peaches, plums, cher
ries, and most of the other small fruits,
can be raised in Massachusetts,, Connec-
ticut, Rhode Island, and in some portions
of New Hampshire, Vermont and Maine,
as a commercial proposition. Apples
can be raised successfully in all of the
States, to compete with the apples rails
ed in any State in the Union.
All of the garden truck that now
comes from Florida, Virginia, Delaware,
New Jersey and New York can be raised
in New England; not, to be sure, in the
same months, but earlier and in much
greater quantities than now. The vege-
tables for winter use can all be raised at
home, and should be. 1t is the most ag-
gravated form of extravaganza to buy
these products of the ground from the
more enterprising people of other Sec
tions, when New Englanders ought to be
selling them. From Agricultural Op-

LOSES HER DECkLOAD.
Schooner ]. c. Strawbridge Caught in a
Hurricane.

Boston, October Goth Bringing a
thrilling story of escape from shipwreck
in the recent tropical hurricane, the four
masted schooner j. c. Strawbridge, from
Apalachicola, was lowed to her discharg-
ing berth at Neponset at noon yesterday,
nearly three weeks overdue.
The sailors spoke in the highest praise
of the courage of the captain wife, who
shared their perils and did much to en-
courage them when the vessels danger
made long vigils necessary.
The Strawbridge sailed from Apalachi-
cola Sept. 9, and when the destructive
West Indian hurricane began tosweep the
coast the Strawbridge was about so miles
west of Tortugas. There was no escape
for her, and when the cyclonic storm
struck it nearly rolled her over.
Against the fury of the storm the
schooner could not make Roadway and
her violent pitching and rolling broke the
lashings to the deckload and 60, 600 feet
of lumber was swept away.
Then the schooner sprang leak and
the water poured into her hold at the
rate of about two feet an hour. Her
condition became extremely perllous, and
those on board feared she would not sur
vive the storm. But Mrs. Arey never
gave up hope. With words of cheer she
encouraged the men and they worked
with renewed energy.
Capt. Arey saw it was useless to con
tinue on his course, and he worked the
vessel about and ran back to Alligator
reef, a distance of nearly 200 miles. All
the while the vessel was pounded by the
seas until they threatened to engulf her
One giant wave hit the vessel amidships,
carrying away the casks containing the
fresh water, and running most Of the
store of provisions.
When the gale subsidized the Straw
bridge was miles out OF her course.
Water was urgently needed and Capt.
Arey decided to bear up for Savannah.
The vessel arrived there Oct. a, and after
replenishing the stock of water and food
she resumed her passage the day follow
ing.
Boisterous weather was again encoun-
tered, but the vessel came through with
out further misadventure. When she
was picked up off Thieves ledge yester.
day by the tug Juno she was leaking
about foot an hour. She will haul out
for repairs after discharging. The vesse
brought in 600, 900 feet Of lumber.

The defendant further contends that
the plaintiffs have no title to the lot of
land demised under the lease to J. War

was not under seal and because (2) it
did not run to the heirs of the lessee.
1t is we'll settled rule of the common

of Wintergreen Compound.
Druggists VIM. o. Poor & Son submit the
following to the readers of The Journal:
For several years we have announced, with
our recommendation, that we had found posi-
tive cure for eczema; a simple skin wash, oil
of wintergreen compounded with other heal
ing ingredients
Yet we know there are people right in this
town who have eczema, and still have never
tried this remedy.
We have, therefore. arranged with the D. D.
D. Laboratories of Chicago for special offer
of trial bottle at 25 cents instead of the $40
bottle as regularly sold.
We offer this trial bottle with our recon-
mendation and assurance that just as soon as
the patient washes his itching skin, this mild
liquid will take the itch away instantly.

Saloons Rule ChiCagO

In the district covered by the Garfield Park Protective
Association Of Chicago a saloon license be properly
granted only when majority of the voters living within
radius of one-half mile have gned petition favorable to
the granting of such license
A few weeks ago Frie Brothers signed petition for
license to open saloon in this district The
citizens interested the question Of having saloon in their
territory with the aid of the Garfield Park Protective
sociaon entered their protest and desired have the petit
ton verified which they had right to do before any license
granted 1t found that 113 fraudulent and improper
signatures the petition which left it 40 short Of
the majority required
The facts made known to the city collector and in
spite of the promise these citizens that they have
hearing license issued to Fre Brothers for the loca
ton in question The city collectors office endeavored to
shift the responsibility to the corporation COUNSEL but that
official denied that the matter had been called his
attention.
This is not way of doing things in the city
Of Chicago Under the strict Interpretation of the law there
is probably legal license granted in the entire district
above mentioned But legal proceedings joke in
any city where the influence of the saloon dominates its
politics.
