GETTING a Reputation.

There is a desk in the senate par
ticularly convenient as a place from
which to make speeches. It is next tc
the aisle and almost in the center Of
the chamber, and affords an opportu
nifty for the speaker to make every
body hear.
At least a dozen senators, accord
ing to the Washington correspondent
Of the st. Louis Star, have borrowed
this desk when they had special utter
ances to deliver to the senate. This
led, not long ago, to a mild protest
from its legitimate occupant.

out of ten, come back rested and in

Federal Judge Dissolves Tenn
porary injunction.
HE REFERS TO GRAND JURIES.
Declines to Assume Jurisdiction and
UphoIds Principle of States
Rights"-Jurist Suggest Impeach-
ment Proceedings For Officers.

Memphis, Tenn.-Declining to as
sumo jurisdiction and unfolding the
principle of "Sate's rights" Federal
Judge John E. Mccall ordered dis
solved a temporary injunction, re-
straining the continuance in bust
ness of 114 saloon keepers of Mem
phis. Notwithstanding the declara-
ton of the Law Enforcement Lea
que of Memphis, who, through fif-
teen Of its members, appeared as
complaints, that their appeals to
State and local authorities for re-
dress had been %unheeded, Judge
Mccall held that prosecution
through grand jury indictments
was the proper recourse and was
ptill open. In answer to the allega-
ton that the constituted authori-
lies of the State were not in ,sypi-
pathy with the prohibition laws as
enacted and had refused to act on
information furnished, he cited i'm
parchment proceedings as a method
through which their removal from
office might be accomplished.
The opinion denied that the
plaintiffs had established the fact
that their constitutional rights
within the meaning Of the four
teenth amendment TO the Federal
constitution, on which the litigation
had turned, had been violated and
denoted that without this fact be-
ing fully PROVED, controversies be-
tween citizens of a State properly
belonged in the State courts. If jur-
isdiction was taken in the present
issue, it is pointed out the Federal
courts might be appealed to TO en-
force any and all of the criminal
laws of a State, which would be in
direct contravention to the United
States constitution.
Taking every allegation of the
bill as true" the prosecution insists
sin substance the court is asked to
enforce the laws of Tennessee be-
tween citizens of the State, not
withstanding that article 4 of Sec
tion 4 of the Constitution of the
United States guarantees to every
State a republican form of govern
ment.'"
An appeal to the. Federal circuit
court will be made.

Pat was a married mana very
much married man. He had married
no fewer than four times, and all his
wives were still in the fore. Accord.
ing to Pats own account before the
court where he was tried for bigamy
and found guilty, his experiences were
not altogether satisfactory. The judge,
in passing sentence, expressed his
wonder that the prisoner could be
such a hardened villain as to delude
so many women.

brought to Fort Myers by Sherifs
Tippins of Lee and Jacocks of Mon

Watson, who had the reputation
of being a desperate character, re-
ported the killing of the three per-
sons at Fort Myers. He claimed
that he had captured Cox, and pro-
dueed the latter's coat and gun as
evidence. He was asked to produce
the corpse and to find this a posse

old Land SUIT in COURT
Controversy Which Has Ragged For
Generations Now Before SUI
preme Tribunal Of U. S.

Lr
Washington. - The controversy
which has ragged in Kentucky for
generations over the validity of So
called blanket grants of land by
Virginia, the mother State, and even
Kentucky itself, during the early
years of statehood, came before the
supreme court of the United States
for decision. Title to lands now
said to be worth at least 100000
are involved. Originally some of
the land was procured at two cents
an acre.
Arguments were made as to the
constitutionality of the Kentucky
statute under which it claimed a
forfeiture of the title Of thousands
of acres of land. Louis Brandels
Weihle and 2. T. Vinson argued that
the Kentucky courts had erred in
not holding the statute unconstitu-
tional. Judge X. M. Stewart defen-
ded the validity of the law.

Job is Better Than Stealing.
Newark, N. I'D advise every
young man to let the burglary bust
ness alone; it doesn't pay in the
best of times and it lands a fellow
behind the bars in the long rum"
is the counsel given by Henry An
thony, who is awaiting trial at
Passaic, N. j. According 10 the po-
lice Anthony has confessed 10 25
burglaries in the fashionable Sec
ton of Passaic. His operations
were so profitable the police say,
that he owned an automobile and
was able to indulge his whim for
high stake gambling and other ex-
pensive pastimes.
The statement made by Anthony
to the police says: 1--WE been at
the game more than a year, worked
it night and day and have made
good hauls, but a man making $40
a week steady is better off than one
doing a good burglary business. The
pawn-brokers make more cat Of it
than the burglars and all your
easy winnings so for gambling or
other foolishness."

HAN. GOV. TESTIFIES
stabbs Opposes Increase of
Railroad Rates.
COULD BUILD MAIN LINE CHEAP.
Too Much Juggling With Stock
Railroad Business Should be Con-
Quoted Like q Bank-Favors Fair
Dividends.

MISUNDERSTANDING OF EVIL
ience by the shippers who are OPP
posing the proposed advance in
freight rates was given before the
interstate commerce commission
with the testimony of Gov. w. R.
Stubs, who declared his opposition
to an increase in rates and his be-
lief as a practical builder OF rail
roads that valuations have been
placed at too high a point.
It'll put up a million dollar bond"
said the governor, that I can con-
struct a main line railroad in Ken
sas, up-to-date line too, for $4,000
a mile and make 10 per cent profit"
The lowest estimate OF railroad
building offered by the railways is
more than double the governors
estimate.
Governor Stubs tine after time
jumped from the role of witness to
that of crosssquestioner.
At one point in the cross-exami-
nation by II. J. Norton, attorney for
the Santa Fe, Gov. Stubs declared:
"Now let me tell you something.
There is not as much risk in build
ing a railroad in a good territory as
in starting a bank. / don't tnink
the roads need preferential rights;
they can make money as they are
and they should be run on the same
business sbasis as a bank"
Later Gov. Stubs again stood up,
and, punctuating his words with
blows on the bench beside him,
said:
The railroads ought to be allow
ed to make 5 or 6 per cent on their
actual investment and also lay aside
a nice surplus for emergency use.
But they ought not to invest that
emergency surplus from time to
time in permanent improvement
and then add it to the capitalization.
Every business man ought to
have a surplus for a rainy day and
the railroad should, too.
Il don't think that S25,000,000 is
too great an amount for the Santa
Fe as an emergency fund for a bad
year or a washout but keep that
fund separate and don't capitalize
it. The people will be pleased to
pay the railroad liberal returns on
their actual investments if they will
only stop stock juggling"
AT one point in his testimony Gov.
Stubs said:
1.-THE curse of business in this
country is the stock Juggling and
high finance. Stop this high
finance. Make every dollar of cap
%italization represent a dollar in
vested in the road and people will
fall over themselves to buy railroad
stocks and bonds"

BACON HIGH It! CHICAGO.
Corn and Hogs Cheaper But Meat il
IS Cents a Pound.

Chicago.-In the face Of steady
decline in the price Of hogs and
corn on which they are fed, Ghica-
goans who desire to eat bacon have
discovered that they were compell-
ed TO pay the highest price ever OBJ
tanned for the salt meat in times of
peace-35 cents a pound sliced. If
the housewife was willing to cut it
up herself she might have reduced
this figure to three pounds for 81,
but that was the best she could do.
1t is up, and to all appearances, will
stay at this record-smashing figure
for some months. The sole reason
for this situation, according to C.
w Foster, the veteran provision
dealer, lies in the shortage of bacon
producing hogs.
No matter what the facts might
seem to indicate, said he, the diff
Guilty lies in the inability of the
packers to buy the porkers..
