SAME COPYRIGHT
CLAIMED BY TWO
Well-knOWn Artist Is Called
Upon to Explain.

New York, Nov. 11.-Max Field Parrish,
the weIl-known artist, will be called upon
to explain IL he has sold the copyright
for one of his paintings, entitled Sing
Song of Six Pence" to two different
persons, as a result of the suit that was
filed to-day in the United States Circuit
Court by Joseph Beifeld, proprietor Of
the Hotel Sherman, Chicago, against the
Dodge Publishing Company, of this city.
Marshal Henkel, acting under a war
rant, to-day levied on 200 alleged in
fringements OF the picture in the offices
of the Dodge Publishing Company. His
action restraints the publishing company
from issuing any Of the pictures pending
the action.
The defendant may be subjected to q
500 penalty and costs.
The complaint alleges that Beifield
contracted with Parrish to do the pic
ture and that he paid the artist for the
completed painting. The price, II is said,
was several thousands The picture
now hangs in the bar of the Hotel Sher-
man, Chicago. Mr.. Beiield alleges that
Parrish himself had the picture copy
righted in Beifeld's name. Some time
later, it is charged, Parrish sold
Sketch of the picture. differing slightly in
the position of some of the figures, to
Arthur Purves, of Philadelphia, an art
collector of that city. Purves, with the
consent of Parrish, is alleged to have
sold the copyright privilege to the Dodge
Publishing Company.
AT the Office of the publishing com.
pany to-day it was stated that the copy
right had been purchased from Parrish
in good faith, and that the company had
no knowledge of Beifield's claim to the
same copyright privilege.

Italy and the "Dreibund."

There is one part of the aggressive
policy of Italy in Tripoli that has not
been generally discussed in the Ameri-
can press. 1t was casually mentioned
in The Washington Herald when the
'hostiIities began, and has attracted a
good dealaof attention in German Off
ciai circles. This is the effect of the
war upon the Triple Alliance, and, in
consequence, on the rather delicate po-
litieal balance of the whole Of Europe.
That alliance embraces Germany-the

READER OF THE HERALD
VOICES PENSION OPINION

Editor The Washington Herald:
The police and firemen's pension and
retirement bill is a necessity.
II Congress, at the coming session,
could be presented with some of the
sights witnessed in the District, 1 am
sure there would not be any doubt Of the
much to the men that endanger their
lives for u.s. day after day.
What is to become of the poor gray
haired veteran who has put in a life
time serving us, through all kinds of
weather, and is new too old to properly
perform his duty?
Suppose ne is retired, the pension fund
is low; he gets one-third OF what he
should receive; how is he and his family
to live on such pay as this, with food
stuffs at the present standard? At his
full pay, II is hard enough for him TO
exist. s.-
Next look at the widow, with her home
full of little ones to be. taken care OF,
perhaps a baby too young to be left to
the care of some one else, while she, a
frail creature, goes forth to help make
up that which she is being deprived OF
by the loss OF husband who has given
his life trying to save or protect some
one or something, you or 1 value. i ap-
peal to the people Of the District OF Co
lumbia-those that have inf1uence-to ex-
ert every effort they can in behalf, of
these men.
Think what 1t would mean II we had 70
firemen to run at the sound OF an alarm:
II we had no policemen to protect US and
ours. Is there time we appeal to him
that he is not ready TO risk even his life
to assist Us?
Could we the women Of the District
walk the streets after dark IL II was not

what they are doing for US? How many

President Taft's Return.

President Taft returns to the Ma
tional Capital to-day after a lengthy
absence, during which he has travelled
to the other end of the republic The
people of Washington accord him a
hearty welcome upon his safe return.
Whether this particular journey was
inspired by political motives or not, the
fact remains that it is a wise and proper
thing for the President to visit every
section of the country as frequently as
possible. He is the head of the nation,
and in a republic like ours it is a good
thing to have the President closely in
touch with the people. They cannot all
come to Washington to see him, but he
can visit them, and it is a part of his
duty so to do. 1t gives them a more
intimate relation with the government
when the President becomes for them
a visible entity and not a printed name
The cordial reception everywhere ac-
corded the President must naturally
have been gratifying tP him 1t has
demonstrated the respect for him and
his Office and is a pleasant memory, now
that the miles of travel have been end
ed. 1t has not been altogether pleas
ure trip, because the demands upon him
every day have been incessant and
wearing; but none the less he has bene-
fitted by personal association with the
people who enjoy with him the proud
distinction of being American citizens.

Convict Labor and Good Roads.

Alexandria has interrupted the usual
occupation of voodoo doctor and put
him to work upon the roads. He will
now be useful to the ,cummunity
This solitary instance is in line with
movement now gaining force through
out the country and which seeks to
utilize prison or workhouse labor in the
construction of thoroughfares, The
conditions which have been disclosed
in Virginia, where it is charged that
ocnvicts working for shoe manufac-
turing firm are deprived of liberty which
they might gain through good behavior,
in order that the contractors may have
the full benefit of their labor; or in
Georgia, where the stockades are a
scandal and disgrace; or in Missouri,
where the manufacture of cotton waists
and blouses by convicts has deprived
workingwomen of honest employment,
have not escaped the attention of those
who are studying sociological facts.
There is a very general sentiment
throughout the country that while the
man in prison ought not to be allowed
TO remain in idleness, he ought not to
take bread out of the mouths of honest
men.
1t so happens that the building of
good roads is one phase of industry
that does not compete with skilled
workmen and can hardly be said to dis
place even unskilled labor 1t is work
which the community would not do
unless well supplied with funds; and
even though there be money to pay for
the building of good roads, there is al
ways sufficient roadway unimproved to
utilize the services of the men who are
serviIR time. Consequently, the oc-
cupant of the jail or the workhosse
can be made to labor with benefit to the
State and yet without harm to any other
human being.
1t is for this reason that the use of
convicts upon roads is being urged by
those who regard the welfare of hu-
manity from every point of view.
