JURY TRIALS IN CONTEMPT.

JO
The effort in Massachusetts to pro-
vide for jury trials in certain contempt
proceedings arising in connection with
injunction cases bids fair to succeed.
A bill on the subject has passed the
senate with only five dissenting votes
and is expected to succeed in the
house.
The chief provision of the measure
is that THE defendant in proceedings
appears from the proceeding filed in
appears from the proceeding field in
court alleging the violation that the
violation is an act which would also be
a crime, shall have the right to trial
by jury on the issue of facts only as
to whether be committed the acts al
legged to constitute said violation, and
the said trial by jury shall take place
at once"
1t will be noted that this is a radical
departure from the forms in which leg
islation on somewhat similar lines has
been attempted in several states. II
provides for jury trial in criminal cases
only. Because of the usual high char
acter of courts, there may be slight
danger of injustice to defendants in in
junction violation proceedings. Still.

FAVORTISISM IN LEGISLATION.
A broad-minded, generous man does
interest. He is willing to take his
chances with the general good. Not so
with the narrow-minded, selfish man.
He wants the government to pick out
and. do him favor. Sometimes such
a favor is also for the public good,
and sometimes it isn't. When it is we
are in favor of it and when it isn't
we are against it.
The ruling passion that is the most
desperate foe to patriotism is selfish
ness. 1t will destroy this country some
day if we don't take care. 1t behooves
every intelligent, honest, patriotic man
to fight it in legislation, in the public
service or in official sway, at all times
and at all hazards. There are features
of our government that encourage sell
fsness and personal advantage. They
will have to be changed. And that is
the problem before the country today
The reduction of legislative assump-
ton must come. Keep your eyes on
that issue and watch it grow. To al
low an item of $4,000 in an appropria-
ton bill because lit is the only thing
the senator has asked for" is a hui
initiation and a disgrace to free peo-
pie, and yet such events are frequent,
We will have to put in machinery that
will do nothing but good work.-Ohio

 CAPITALS. IF EUROPE
Associated Press Correspondence from London Berlin and Paris Tells of Many Facts of
 Interest

one Is following the results with keener interest than the emperor.
 The fleet, which left Kiel May l. will continue it's maneuvers in the North sea until June 2. operating within the triangle between Curhav- en, Wilhelmshaven and the island fortress of Helgoland which would probably be the field of war in case of hostilities with Great Britain. At the conclusion of the spring cruise the entire fleet will return to Kiei to participate in the welcome to the American battleships during the Kiel regatta week.
 A plan for turning Munich into a harbor city has been drawn up by officials of the Bavarian government at the suggestion of Prince Ludwig of Bavaria. It is proDosed t0 cut through Northern Bavaria a great ship canal 150 miles in length, fed by the rivers of Isar, Amper and Loch. and connecting with the Vain ana Rhine rivers, to permit the nav igation of vessels displacing up to 1000 tons as far as the Bavartan capital. The ships are to enter the canal at Ludwigshafen on the Rhine. The idea of Prince Ludwig is by this means to provide more economical transport, more especially for coal and iron, which Bavaria almost en- tireiy lacks, and which are now car ried by the railroads at almost pro hibitive cost.
 The claims of Naundorff to be the son of Louis XVI. of France have teen put forward again recently oy those who believe the DaupnIn es- caped from the Temple in Paris in stead of dying there in 1795 as re corded in history. As a Tqsult of tde coatrnv~rSv witch has ansen on the subject, the Prussian state archives have been diligently searched and fo-nd to contain many documents relating to this claimant 10 the ti- tie of Louis XVII, but, according to the officials, they ali tend to prove him to have been the subject of hys- terical self-reception, and so that in fact be was a German citizen. In pamphlet just issued by Pro'essor Tschirch, the state archivist of Brandenburg, who has access to all the state archives, proof is given that the alleged Dauphin was a man of humble extraction and the author declares that there Is not single roint in the state papers which co=f4 give any substantiatiOn uo the leg and of his rOs sI ancestry.
