No elaborate wedding marks this
latest union of American dollars and
foreign title. On the contrary, Il
has seemed to be the desire Of the
parties most concerned to avoid all
publicity In regard to the marriage
and the details of the wedding This
extreme reticence Is said to be due, in
part at least. to the early opposition
or the part of c. oliver Iselin to his
daughters choice of husband. The
well-known banker. and yachtsman is
understood to entertain q strong dis
like for international matrimonial al
liances. particularly where G member
Of his own family Is concerned. But
the determination of his wife and
daughter won the day, and after q
personal interview with his prospec-
tive son-in-law in which the latter
made most favorable impression,
Mr.. Iselin gave his consent for the
marriage to take place.

Mobiles Plea for Commission Form
OF City Government.

Mobile Is very anxious for change
IN her form Of government, and is
printing some very interesting matter
with regard to government by COM
mission with the purpose of arous!ng
sentiment there in that method in the
stead Of her present plan of gov
ernment.
Among other things the Mobile
Register prints the story of Leaven-
worth. Kans.. and a most interesting
story it is.
II seems that Leavenworth got in q
bad way. Its situation was not Ca
vorable to good government, having a
Soldiers Home at one end Of the
town and the army barracks at the
other The town was typically West
ern and breezy. Taxes went as high
as s per centum. and yet there was
not enough money left to pay for
street lighting or employ an adequate
| force Of police and firemen. Proper
ty value decreased so greatly that the
| revenues were much reduced; and
there was extravaganza in govern
ment in addition. Industry languish.
ed. and trade was full. Citizens be-
gan selling out and moving away, not
Icing able to make living there.
Affairs were at the lowest ebb when
the commercial association took up
the subject of commission form Of
government. and went to work and
obtained that form; the club nomi-
mated five good men as commission
ers. and the five were elected. "Im-
mediately," says Mr.. Howard Wilson,
OF Mobile, who was Of old resident
| oe Leavenworth, confidence returned,
all that had been lost under the coun-
Gil and aldermanic system of gov
| ernment was regained in police and
| fire department reorganizations, and
in other ways. During the first year
OF the change considerable work was
done on the streets"
The commissioners have recently
been reelected except the mayor, who
did not care to serve another term.
Business has revived, and the people
| are full of hope for the future. Mr.
Wilson recites that 4 wealthy con-
tractor, who promised to invest $50,-
600 In Leavenworth, if commission
| government were installed, has made
good his promise. So instead of cap
ital moving away, it has begun to
come back to Leavenworth.
The Register concludes:
Mr.. Wilson expresses fear that Mo-
bile, If 1t should adopt the commits
ion form of government, would no:
obtain the services Of the right sort
OF men; but. we ask. why this lack
Of confidence? Mobile surely can do
as well as Leavenworth in the choice
OF public servants. 1t is the system
we have and not the men we select
that causes present dissatisfaction
Moreover. under the primary and
election-at-large, with every man free
to run who can get the endorsement
OF 25 electors, political domination will
be set at naught, and the best men
will win. At any rate, we would be
willing to risk the danger, if any ex-
lists, for the sake of getting a system
that promises an Improvement in
government.

pressed his willingness 10 cooperate with
the Commissioners in their determination
to remove every vestlge OF the unsightly

He told Commissioner West that not
withstanding the fact that the large bill

North Capitol street were IN existence
prior TO the construction OF the Union
Station, he would willingly agree 10 have
them removed at once, as we'll as all ad-
verusements upon walls which his com

TO July 10 Of the current year permits
for the erection OF hfty-six billboards
and the painting Of lS2 walls have been
issued There are now pending applica-
tions for permits for FIVE additional bill
boarde and five wall signs.
Mr.. Macfarland said yesterday that he
was glad that the Commissioner in charge
OF the matter had made the recommends

II would be found possible TO carry the

ARGUES FOR JUVENILE COURT
Representative Smith Will Attempt
to Extend It's Jurisdiction.
VIII Introduce Amendment to Pres
ent Law Rt Next Session
Of Congress.

Baked IN his effort TO have action TAX
en- at the present time. a point OF order
being made against him, Representative
Smith. OF Michigan. chairman Of the
House Committee on the District OF Co
lumbia, yesterday gave notice that an
amendment to give the Juvenile Court OF
the District government concurrent jurls-
diction with the Criminal Court in non
support cases will be placed before the
next session Of Congress.
Representative Smith read a letter in
tho House from District Attorney Baker.
in which stress is laid upon the fact that
there Is only one Judge now sitting in the
Criminal Court. with no opportunity for
jury trials for months TO come. and that.
therefore, the law will be enforced with
difficulty during this time.
District Attorney Baker calls attention
20 the fact that IN the case Of the United
States VS.. Leo s. West which was TO
determine whether the Juvenile Court had
jurisdiction over a case involving the
desertion by a husband OF his wife where
there were no children. the Supreme
Court OF the District of Columbia decided
against the Juvenile Court. Another case,
lndL OF Ollo LIMA weaver was al Bueu Oh
a writ Of habeas corpus.
The petition was fled 10 release Lima
weaver from the District wOrkhouse on
the ground that the warrant OF COM
mitment Of the Juvenile Court was void,
Chief Justice Clabaugh has announced in
this case that his opinion Will follow the
decision OF Justice Stafford IN the case
Of Leo s. West.
These two decisions strip the Juvenile
Court Of Jurisdiction under the act OF
March q, 1906" says Mr. Baker. IT
seems 10 me almost self-evident that
Congress intended that the Juvenile Court
should have jurisdiction over this class OF
ofenses. 1t would be most unfortunate
occurrence were this court 70 be deprived
Of the cases which 1t has handled most
satisfactorily up 20 the present time.
