The inquest into the cause of the
wreck at Odessa, Mimi, in which ten
persons were killed, and many in.
jured, produces the usual testimony.
Each person under suspicion blames
the accident upon some one else.
There should be some effectual means
to sift accidents of this nature to the
bottom and fix the exact responsible
ity. Just 50 long as no one must pay
the penalty for causing, through neg
lect or carelessness, these awful hu.
man sacrifices, just that long will life
be held cheaply, and the catastrophes
continue

The supreme court of the United
States mas handed down an opinion
to the effect that if Chicago's police
force is unable to protect property
during strikes and riots the municipal
ity is liable for damages. The city
makes the property owner pay taxes,
and the taxpayer demands the protec-
ton to which he is entitled. This in
wolves the rigid enforcement of the
statute governing mobs, and should
be an important factor in aiding the
termination Of large strikes, several of
which have demoralized business in
the Windy City during recent years.

REVISION DOWNWARD.

Presenting its findings upon SEIZED.
ule K of the Payne act, the tariff
board has made public it's first report,
long awaited, which President Taft
sent to congress yesterday, accompa'
MED by special message, recon.
mending that the rate on wool and
woolens be materially reduced.
Neither the executive nor the board
proposes any definite rates of reduc.
ton. The investigators have done
their share in presenting the results
of their studies of conditions affecting
the wooden industry throughout the
world. The reduction is left for the
congressman to determine, that action
falling within their pale Of duty. It
is now up to the democrats to show
the nation their sincerity as regards
tariff revision, by complying with the
wishes OF Mr.. Taft.
In his Winona speech Mr.. Taft did
not attempt to defend schedule X. He
believed, however, in the efficacy of a
tariff board, and that his faith was
not misplaced is very apparent to all
who study the thorough and compre-
hensive report which it has made.
The president further believes that
the tariff board should be a perma.
nent organization Hasty action is
usually disastrous. Careful investiga-
ton of each schedule would place the
tariff question on sounder basis, and
revision downward, recommended by
experts, after their labors have dem
onstrated it's necessity, is better than
hurried plunge by radical legisla-
tors who seek to curry popular favor.
Mr., Taft has been harshly crit
icised because he acted cautiously in
dealing with the tariff. In dealing
with other problems that have arisen
during his administration he has
shown the same prudence. He has
studied situations and determined
what, in his own mind, he believes is
the proper course of action to pursue
in order to assure the most lasting
benefits to the nation. Praise nor con-
demnation will change his policy
when he thinks he is in the right.
That his plans are bearing fruit now
was not surprising to those &C.
quainted with the man. And even
his critics must now admit that he
was in the right.

Chicago's city council has taken its
first step to eliminate illicit traffic in
cocaine, morphine, opium and other
drugs. In st. Paul committee has
been appointed to investigate the so
cial evils said to be prevailing there.
Moral cleanup is necessary in every
community where immoral conditions
predominant. It should be effective,
however, to prevent repetition in
the future:

Defendants and Respondents
1. An objection to the introduction
of any evidence upon the ground that
the complainant does not state facts
sufficient to constitute a cause of &C
ton must specially point out wherein
the complaint is defective.
2. An objection to the evidence
which is based upon and calls atten'
ton to substantial defects in count
of a complaint merely, will not reach
a. misjoinder of actions or formal de-
fects in pleading.
8. AS against such a motion to ex.
clude all of the evidence. one count,
although m:sjoined, if otherwise stat.
ing a cause of action, will be allowed
to stand.
4. The civil action of conspiracy
is a tort action and cannot, in gen.
eral, be maintained for inducing
third person to break his contract
with the plaintiff, the consequence at
law being only a broken contract for
which the party to the contract may
have his remedy by suing upon it.
In order to sustain such an action
it is generally necessary that there
shall be an averment and proof OF
the commission of an act which, II
done by one alone, would at the com.
mon law constitute a ground for an
action on the case. The action will
rot generally lie for merely inducing
another to break his contract, except
where direct fraud or force or CO.
ercion has been used.

Poverty, as exists in other states, is

is JUSTICE BLIND?

OF the great number of murder
cases tried in the United States with
in recent months, there are three
which have been given especial at
tention-the Beattie case in Virginia,
the trial OF Mrs. Patterson at Denver,
and the criminal procedure against
Lillian Graham and Ethel Conrad in
New York. In the mans instance the
death penalty was inflicted: The
women were given their freedom by
a jury composed of men. A review
Of the history of these crimes reveals
violation of law and order in every in
stance. Society demands that crime
be punished. But the tendency has
been to free the woman, and sentence
the man. AS one writer has said,
"practice seems to sanction anything
done by a woman who is pretty and
can make good appearance before
a :chivalurous' American jury" Why
the distinction? Had Harry Thaw and
Evelyn Nesbit Thaw arranged mat
ters so that the girl would have been
the one to be tried, the probabilities
are that she would have gotten off
scot free. Her husband faced the jury
instead, and is life inmate in an asy-
lum for the insane. Shall this posi-
bility Of discrimination continue to
exist?
Advocates of woman suffrage be.
lieve that neither woman's tears nor
her pretty appearance would greatly
influence a feminine jury. Sutfrac
gettes may find this assertion an i'm.
portant argument to be used in advo-
eating the enfranchisement Of women.
It is noticeable that In all of the
cases mentioned, death was inflicted
by shooting. In the annual report of
the Minnesota state board of health
there is table showing the number
of deaths by suicide and violence dur
ing the year 1909. The total number
Of deaths so recorded was 253. OF
these, rs were by firearms and Sc by
poison. Over So per cent Of violent
deaths we're caused by means which
could have been checked by the au-
thorities. A law prohibiting the
"toting" Of guns, or the sale of fire.
arms except where such sales are
registered, and the prohibition of the
sale of poisonous drugs except under
strict legal supervision, would greatly
ameliorate present conditions. AS it
is now anyone can purchase death
dealing articles with little fear that
the sale will ever be traced down
after the crime is committed. Rem
der this impossible, treat the woman
criminal with no more mercy than
the man brute, and the wave of MUIR
der and crime which is sweeping over
the nation will dash helplessly against ,
the crags of punishment, and, swirl.
ing back, will lose itself in the sea of
justice.
