proved by the court will accomplish
the objects Of the law"
Forty-siX prosecutions for Illegal
determinations and rebates were in
stituted against railroads during the
year. The attorney general urges the
amendment of the 28-hOur law gov
erning the railroad transportation Of
live stock by imposing an impriso1-
ment penalty for its violation
The vigorous enforcement of the
customs laws. the attorney general
saws. resulted in the recovery Of
81 .I2O. 900 in duties out of which the
government had been defrauded.
The white slave traffic act. now a
wear and a half old, is having salu-
tary effect. in the judgment Of Nj.
Wickersham. The statute was dti-
gently enforced throughout the com
try. he AYERS. with most satisfactory
results. one hundred and forty-f.ve
prosecutions were had. resulting in
&C convictions. IA acquittals and 10
noIle pressed or otherwise disconsin-
ued Forty-five cases are pending
Sentences imposed ranged from few
months in Jail To 10 years in the
penitentiary.
While prosecutions against peona%e.
the attorney general says, have lone
much to stamp il out, the practice
still appears to he quite extensively
carried on in some of the southern
states. He suggests the strengthen
ing of the statutes so as to afford
efficient protection of persons against
slavery and involuntary servitude. eX-
cept as punishment for crime.
Mr.. Wickersham calls attention to
the discovery of extensive Irregular
ties and in some cases actual dis
honesty in offices of clerks OF the
United States courts. No effective
reform. he declares. can be ACCOM-
plished until the power of removing
the clerks is taken from the judges
and lodged i'm the president and the
clerks paid Il specific sum. instead of
by the fees system. ~-,
Declaring that many of the .jails
where federal prisoners are confined
are wholly unsuitable for the deten-
ton of human beings and ARE Shock
ing breeding places of crime. the at
torncy general recommends the APP
pointment of commission TO inquire
into the conditions. This commission
also would consider the general treat
ment of juvenile and first Offend

The attorney general also recon-
mends that the federal government be
given the right TO bring an action
against an individual or corporation
in any part OF the country without re-
striction as to the place of residence
of the individual or the home state of
the corporation.

team at Front and Union on Satur-
day. Camden was to have played
here earlier in the season but owing
to rain the game was declared of
Camden is we'll known to the local
football fans, as they have been play
ing the local Orange team light games
for several years. Last season Cam

ager Daley has a much faster team
this season, he will fight hard to get
the Saturday game. Daley IS well
known in athletics. Besides playing
baseball and football he was one Of
the stars in the basketball cage Of the
Eastern League with the De Merle
team. Camden also has several foot
ball stars on the team including
Hethenger, the former Bucknell star
and the famous Shaw brothers.
The Imperial boys do not feel bit
down hearted over the defeat of last

the fastest teams in this section. Wav-

Delaware visitors, returning from

that Delaware will realize winnings
In the $1,000 gold competitions. This
is not because the Delaware apples
do not make a superior showing, bur
from the fact that some OF the ma.
