FREE MUNICIPAL LAUN-
DRY FOR THE POOR

Cincinnati has recently opened a
municipal domestic laundry where
poor women of the tenement dis
tricts may take the faminy clothing
and do their own washing with the
aid of the most up-to-date machi-
merry Thus. all the modern laundry
mechanisms are brought within
reach OF the poorest families.
A picture of the laundry interior
appears in the December Popular
Mechanics Magazine. The equip
ment includes enough power wash
ers, driers, and electric irons, to ac-
500 family washings
each week, and the city is preparing
to build more laundries OF like ma
ture. The idea originated with the
board of health, which was quick to
recognize the sanitary advantages
derived from removing clothes
washing operations from the living
and sleeping rooms of the tenement
dwellers.

Washington, Nov. 21.--Why is
the Wickersham suit against the
steel trust one in equity instead of
criminal prosecution?
The Sherman antitrust law car

magnates may be sent to jail. II it
Is possible to dissolve the steel trust
under the Sherman law-and Presi-
dent Taft and Attorney General
Wickersham boast that it is easy to
dissolve every illegal combine in the
land under this statute-why are
not the men who organized and di-
rect these Illegal monopolies equally
liable to successful prosecution.
With the fact admitted that it was
in j. p. Morgan's library that the
steel trust conspiracy was developed,
that it was he who sent Gary and
Frick to "see" President Roosevelt
about the Tennessee Coal and Iron
company merger, and that Morgan
received s29 100000 in clear profit
for his part in the organization
work. it would appear to the lay
mind that Morgan is just as liable
to prosecution for having organized
an illegal monopoly as said monop-
oily is liable to dissolution for being
in existence in violation of the law.
The American public is about
convinced that trust magnates care
little or nothing about suits" as
long as they are directed against
corporations and not individuals,
and especially if the government

trust attorney and a member of a
political party whose campaign

Relating by railroads could not
be stopped until the offense was
made penitentiary one. When
that was done, rebating stopped.
A remote possibility of having to
dissolve" under a plan which they
themselves can stipulate, (see SUI
preme courts acceptance of the to-
bacco trusts reorganization plans)
or the threat of fine against the
trust instead of individuals, has
time and again proven an insuffic-
lent deterrent to trust magnates
who see an opportunity to make mil
lions of dollars annually by disre-
garding the law.
There is one thing that trust
magnates are afraid Of. and appar'
emily one thingonly. That Is the
penitentiary.
When an attorney general can bt
found who will enforce the only fea
ure OF the Sherman law that will
cause trust magnates to really ODE,
the law, and not until then, will thu
public be justified in expecting relic
from trust oppression and the conse
quent high prices.

H. U. Keasey, directors and officers
in the Gilcrest Mercantile company,
to enforce the payment of s6,SOO,

exaggeration to state that the work

CANADIAN RECIPROCITY.
Feeling In England, Says Schwab, is
That II WIN Not Pass.

BY United Press Leased Special Wire.
NEW YORK, Feb. 17.-While the
question of the annexation Of Canada
to the United States is being consider
ably discussed in England in connec-
ton with Canadian reciprocity, accord
ing to Charles NJ. Schwab. the general
feeling over there is that there Is not
the least danger Of IL coming to pass.
Schwab returned here today on the
Mauretania, after a brief vacation IN
England. He said that so far as he
could learn, sentiment in England
seemed to be about equally divided for
and against reciprocity.
Business sentiment on the Other
side" said Schwab. is decidedly op-
timistic. The general feeling Is that
trade conditions in all lines are i'm
proving. All Of the trouble in the stee
| business is now at an end and all o.
| the plants are running smoothly"
