BIGGER AND BETTER JAvLs,

Some time ago The Forum received
communication. from some kind of an
organization down east. It advocated
hgger and more comfortable jails. AT
that time the subject matter didn't an
peal very strongly and the article at
tracted only casual interest.
But now it's different.
With Governor Burke and the recent
.. S. Senator Thompson after The
Forums scalp on a criminal libel
charge-this question of the jails be-
comes a paramount issue.
After having three warrants read to
one by sheriff. makes the iail
problem loom up big. One recalls stor-
les of bread and water, the third de-
gree" playing checkers through the
bars with his nose-and other interest
ing things of that kind.
All at once a great interest is arous-
ed in the improvement Of the jaiIs. De-
spite of the high cost of living - after
nearing three warrants read in Sc
quence--a fellow wonders If it wouldn't
be nice to have the sheriffs serve port
erhouse steaks, quail on toast and
things like that.
The thought occurs that big beds
with box springs and two or three Os-
termoar mattresses would not be out
of place. Large and comfortable sofas
and easy chairs-would also add TO the
attra ctiveness of the interior Of the
establishments ~-, f.
Taken ltogether-after hearing three,
warrants read-it doesn't require much
urging to become a warm advocate Of
improved grub and furniture in iails.

THE MORAL EPIDEMIC.

Carping critics are trying to persuade
the public that the avowed purpose. of
the Rockefellers to devote their accum-
ulated millions to philanthropic pur-
poses is simply a shrewd scheme to
evade the payment of the inheritance
duties-on the death of the present
head of the family. There seems rea -
son to believe that the great oil auto
crat and his son are the victims of an
epidemic of virtue and morality which
is at present sweeping over the coun-
try. and especially menacing million
aires. The latest victim appears to be
a certain Joseph Fels, millionaire
soap manufacturer of Chicago. Car

THE WIDOWS PENSION BILL,

The War of 1912 ended almost nine
ty-f1ve years ago. and there are vet a
few pensioners on the roll as a. result
Of thar war. II was nearly 100 years
after the close of the Revolutionary war
before its last widows pension was
wiped of the rolls by death.
VI Now there Is albill pending in con-
gress providing that all widows OF hon
oFably discharged soldiers of the Civil
war may receive a pension.
The law on the statute books pro-
vides pensions for widows who were
married to soldiers prior to 1890.
That was a wise provision, guar
anteeing the. government from an over
burdened pension roll. Why It should
be changed in favor of women who
married old soldiers many years after
the close Of the war does not appear
plain.
Women who, married soldiers in the
years Immediately following the war
should always be looked upon as en-
titled to whatever the government gives
them. They went in, and, in most
cases, helped the veteran to regain the
footing in life he lost when he went
into the army. In many cases they
nursed him back to the health he lost
in the service, or to comparative health
at least. They bore his children and
helped him rear his offspring In all
and through all they bore with him and
were helpmates in every sense OF the
word. These women are entitled tn
even better pensions than they are al.
lowed blythe law. ."7
Following the Revolutionary war, and
at about the time the pension system
had its inception, hundreds of young
girls married soldiers, many of whom
were old enough to be their grandsires.
The incentive was the prospects of the
pension they would receive as wild
ows," and the land such as the gov
ernment doled out to the creators Of
the nation. Many of these women re-
mained on the pension rolls for many
years. --.g-4r' -,..,r..
e If the: pension%laws are amended so
as TO take in. all widows of soldiers,
the amount of money used for pension
purposes Will be greatly increased
without beneftting those who. earned
pensions by service. If the government
mas money to expend in this manner
let it exhibit the generosity it should
long ago have shown towards it's pre-
servers and give TO the men who fought
and sacrificed pensions that will nro-
vide the necessities of life. As il now
stands, few old soldiers get anywhere |
near enough from the government. in
the form of pensions to allow them to
provide for even their. minor necessi- |
ties.
The government. has never been over. |
liberal with the old soldfers-and now.
when each year finds. them falling off
by the thousands-zit should exert its
energies towards providing for their
comrades who survive. ---------.

KETCHELL DRAWS WITH KLAUS
Pittsburg Fighter Keeps Michigan
Man Busy for Six Rounds.

PITTSBURG. March 4.-Before the
largest house that ever: saw a fight in
Pennsylvania west Of the Allegheny noun
tains Stanley Ketchell and Frank Klaus
fought a six-round draw at Duuuesne
Garden last night. The Michigan wonder
had little to boast OF at the end OF the
MILL since Klaus kept him at least busy
all the time, and both We're putting hard
at the end. 1t is hard to say whether a
decision could have been made at the
end Of the fight, so evenly were the men
matched. While Ketchell did, perhaps.
the more leading in the fight, Klaus landed
very often and very hard. In fact. there
was time when Ketchell was holding on
grimly.
The first round was rather cautious on
both sides. Each man evidently wanted
to try the other out The second round
saw them come together with a crash.
and the entire round was devoted to In
fighting, something that the crowd did
not understand nor appreciate. The third
was continuation OF the rough might
ing, which did some damage to both par
ties.
The fourth round saw Ketchell go down
and. while some Of the crowd thought he
had been knocked down. such was not
the case. as he slipped on getting away
from Klaus, who helped him up, and at it
they went again, hammer and tongs. The
fifth round belonged very much to the
Pittsburg fighter. Klaus put in a success
sion OF rights to the jaw, and Ketchell
was forced to clinch repeatedly to save
himself.
The sixth found the Michigan wonder
himself again. and he came back with a
dash to try to put the Pittsburg man out
His heavy left was tried again and again,
but he was not able to land it effectively.
The fight ended with both trying for q
knockout.
