Women's Club to Work for "Sane Fourth"

Before the close of the last meeting of the Women's Club a COM
mitee of three WI appointed by the president, Mrs. Swartz, to work
for a "sane fourth of July" in Saratoga. The committee suggests
that our merchants refrain from buying stocks of fireworks and that
the young people arrange for picnics on that day. They suggest
that the island might be cleaned up and parties held there during the
4th, or almost any place along the river. These suggestions are
good and the Sun hopes to SCI them carried out. Cut out the fire.
works and thus do away with all noise and danger to life and prop
erty. This is being done every where and there is n O reason why
we should not follow suit here in Saratoga.

The Sun is glad to see the movement inaugurated for cleaning ND
the town, rs per the communication from a committee of the Women's
printed in another column Now If everybody will see to it
that his or her premises are properly cared for it will be buta little
time until the town will take on a nice attractive appearance. Arbor
Day should be made a kind of annual tree planting day. Certainly
no more commendable practice could be put in motion than that of

PACKERS Want
ANOTHER DELAY
Will Fight To Prevent Trial But
Method Has Not Been
Revealed

Chicago, Nov. 20.-Prospects Of a
sudden and unlocked for move on
the part of the indicted packers to
delay their trial beyond Wednesday
of this week, to which date ii was
postponed today by United States
District Judge Carpenter, increased
today after an extended conference
between counsel for the meat pack
ers
Just what the move will be is nm
known, but a possible action that
has been mentioned by a man inter-
ested in tho National Packing Co. is
for the packers to appear for trial
and ask for a continuance on the
plea that the packers desire TO take
an appeal to the Supreme court as to
he constitutionality OF the criminal
section of tho Sherman antitrust
law.
Government attorneys today are
satisfied to discredit this report. be-
lieying that the packers would de-
mand separate trials for the ten de-
PENDANTS. If the packers ask a con-
tinuance in open court several days
probably would be consumed in ar
gument.
Since the federal court has adj
journed until Dec 4. the packers
might appeal to Judge Carpenter Tor
more time on the ground that on
Dec. 4 they would apply to the SUI
preme court, where the subject in
question might be argued and de-
cided In sixty days. Another plea
might be for delay until an appeal
could be made to some one justice .,
/, the Supreme court.
Eighty-three prospective Jurors
appeared before Judge Carpenter
today for service. .'
