HARVESTER TO
beg FOR mercy
Will Ask Missouri To Let Company
Off With Smaller
Fine

Chicago, Nov. 1S.--The Supreme
court of Missouri will be asked Mon
day to modify the $4,000 fine i'm
posed last Tuesday on the lnterna-
tional Harvester Co. of America, it
was announced here today.
A petition for a hearing will be
filed.
Sclden p. Spencer Of St Louis, at
torney for the company after a
consultation with the general coun-
sci here today said the petition was
filed because of language used in the
decision of which the fine was a
part.
"The language of the court will
contrast strangely to the fact that
the company was fined in the mind
of those not familiar with the case. .
said Mr.. Spencer.
"The, decision read:
In This case the court Is requir-
ed. by the statute TO pronounce Judg-
ment of condemnation upon a com
hination which is proved by the
facts as they appear in record to
have been so far beneficial to the
community.
But the general public does not
know this" said Spencer. ut knows
only a $4,000 fine which indicates
to the public mind gross misconduct
and injury to the public when the
courts decision indicates otherwise
We will seek to have the fine largely
reduced"

Consuming Anthracite.

Anthracite is a clean fuel and its
good qualities r fully appreciated, but
unfortunately, the field in which 1t is
found is restricted, and there will in
evitably come a time when no more
will be available. Happily for us,
however, the exhaustion of the supply
is not likely to come in our time,
great as is the constant drain upon
1t. And the drain is certainly great.
Anthracite shipments in August
amounted to 5,531,796 tons, an this
was an increase of 735,752 tons over
the same month last year. There has
been only one year In the history of
the use Of anthracite when the ship
ments have been greater. In 1907 the
shipments amounted to the grand total
Of 5,795.347 tons. The Lehigh Valley
railroad carried the largest anthracite
tonnage last month, the Philadelphia
and Reading was second. and the
Lackawanna was third. Anthracite
Is being rapidly consumed. The in
teresting problem is how long 1t can
last.

colonel asked one Of his constituents.
Jaw, you can't tell nothin' about
John, colonel" was the assurance.

1T will go far to solve the child

more money in their after school
hours than they can now earn in any

The plan which | hope to see car
ried out is to have each school child
cultivate a small piece Of land. Even
on a quarter-acrc a child could earn
more by raising vegetables than he
could obtain in a factory. At the

HORSES HURT STREET TREES
Simple ExpedIent to Protect the Tree
From the Teeth Of the
Horse.

Protection from horses is not so easy
as protection from insects. The for
mer is largely dependent on the
sweet reasonableness" Of the driver.
II he recognized the value of the tree
and the property rights therein of the
abutter and the city, we are convinced
he would take pains to keep his horse
from the tree-to suppose otherwise
would be to suppose the driver an un-
patriotic boor. But such recognition
of tree values Is amazingly rare, and
that not among drivers only. So that
the time is not yet when we can trust
the matter to sweet reasonableness."
In this as In other matters, we are
still on the hither side Of the millen-
mum and still need to invoke the
laws compulsion. Ravages due to the
billings of horses will not be material
ly lessened until citizens everywhere
unite against the evil. The citizen
should frown 1t down where frowning
will achieve results. Where 1t will
not, he should cooperate with city of.
fcials in enforcing the law against
the evil. In towns and cities the
trunk Of every tree, whether young or
old, newly planted or in full growth,
should be enclosed to a proper height
In a wire guard or wire netting of a
small mesh. This simple e~xpedient
would effectually protect the tree
from the teeth Of the horse. Every
property owner should thus guard the
trees abutting his tracts of realty. 1t
would cost but little. 1t would
achieve much. 1t would end the hay
oc wrought by the horse.
