Argument by both sides on the con-

J. Wesley Glasgow was indicted by the
Federal Grand Jury, was finished in
the United States Court yesterday af-
ternoon. United States District-At-
torney Nields made his reply to the
argument of John C. Fay, counsel for
the defendant, in the afternoon and
the Court reserved its decision.
MIR Nields in his reply said thai
Mir. Fay in arguing the issues raised
by the demurrer stated that Glasgow
did not know whether his book was
obscene or not and had sought advice
"How can this be true he said. when
he had already been convicted twice
for handling this book, once at Aurora
H.. and recently at Binghamton, New
York?
How can Glasgow claim that he
was ignorant of the obscenity of the
book when he has been repeatedly
writing TO the President Of the United
states and the appropriate Commit
tee Of Congress asking for the repeal
of Section 1898. under which he stands
indicted? Why was he interested IN
the repeal Of the statute unless 10 OBJ

the very time he was negotiating the
sale of the book TO the persons set out
in this indictment he was under ar
rest at Binghsmton, New York for

obscene on it's face and was used foi
obscene purposes.
Glasgow is accused Of sending thiI
book through the mails.

control. Such action is harsh and mis-
chievous il the corporation is guilty Of
nothing except its size, and where, as
in the case of the Standard Oil and
especially the tobacco trusts, the cor
poration has been guilty of immoral
and anti social practices, there is need
for far more drastic and thorough go
ing action than any that has been
taken. under the recent decree of the
Supreme Court. In the case of the to-
bacco trust, for instance, the settle
ment in the Circuit Court in which the
representatives of the government
seem inclined to concur practically
leaves all the companies still sub
stantially under the control of the 20
original defendants. Such a result Is
lamentable from the standoint Of JUS
tice. The decision Of the Circuit Court
if allowed to stand means that the
tobacco trust has merely been
Obliged TO change its clothes, that none
of the real offenders have received any
punishment. while as the New York
Times, pro-trust paper says, the to-
bacco concerns in their new clothes
are in possession Of ease and luxury,
and immune from punishment under
the law.
Surely miscarriage of Justice 4:
not too strong a term to apply TO such
a result when considered in connec
ton with what the Supreme Cour
said of this trust
trust guilty OF such conduct should
be absolutely disbanded and the only
way to prevent the repetition of sucf
conduct is by strict government su
pervision and not merely by Law
suits.

This put the road out OF comm!s-

day by j. Eugene Wallace, president

more or less feeling was directed
against his company because Of the
incorporation of the lower end. n
Mr. Wallace said ne regretted this
exceedingly, but was powerless 10

He continued. Our company did
everything possible to keep the Del

that the new owners expect one her

owner or buyer for such removal. Il
