THE LITERAL TRUTH.

An exchange says: A Kansas editor
announced he would try for one week
to print the truth, and he is still in
the hospital, says the Sacred Heart
Review. He didn't get by the first
day. The following item appeared in
Mondays issue, and now the boys are
getting out the paper. This is what
he said:
"Married-Miss Sylvia Rhode to
James CANADIAN, last Sunday eve
ming, at the Baptist church. The
bride was an ordinary town girl who
didn't know any more than a rabbit
about cooking, and never helped her
mother three days in her life. She
is not beauty, by any means, and
has gait like duck. The groom is
an up-to-date has-been loafer and
don't amount to shucks nohow They
will have hard life while they live
together"

But the Robnett case does not
stand alone in it's inexcussable pur-
chase of a confessed criminals testi-
money to get some one higher up. .
The government sends it's special pro-
secutors and special agents every
where to try cases it will not entrust
to the regular officers of the govern
ment, for any reason, or for no rea-
son except that somebody has to have
a job. The somebody or somebody's
make good by procuring through Of
fers of immunity or pardon the
confession of robber and thief like
Robnett that some one in authority
over him told him to commit a crime.
What is such testimony worth? II
is an incentive to perjury-a direct
invitation of and inspiration for false
witness. 1t is evidence bought and
paid for in the liberty or freedom or
of the accomplish, or the
as in Robnett's case
1t is high time the United States

special" agents and special prose
cutors who sought to make a reputa-
ton by involving in scandal the name
of citizen of character and influence
What is such suggested evidence
worth? How easily may the acct
dental association of any man with
such a fellow be converted into de-
liberate conspiracy through him to
break the law How readily may any
man unfortunate enough to be known
by any malefactor find that he is
called upon to explain acts and words
that had no criminal intent except in
the ingenious interpretations of a too
Jealous prosecutor What citizen, I'M
der such methods, is free from the
tragic experiences that gave William
Hanley and Senator Borah a hundred
sleepless nights and called upon them,
unexpectedly and without warrant, not
only to defend their regulations but
to avert the imminence of prison?
1t is high time that the President
of the United States directed his de-
partment of justice to seek the adj
ministration of law and the prosecu
ton of accused persons by more
worthy methods and through more di-
rect practices.

request of the bureau. Results were

process, found large numbers of close

EARLY appears to be well and able to
perform considerable manual labor.
Early's ability to provide in a measure
for himself and family is responsible
for the reduction in pension, for when
the original pension was granted he
was isolated by the local health au-
thorities and unable to turn hand to
make dollar.
Early had an honorable service of
nine years in the United States army
and was last discharged Nov. g. 1906.
On July 81, 1907, giving his residence
as Granville. N. Y, and his occupation
as an officer in the Salvation Army, he
filed a claim for pension, alleging that
while serving in the United States
army he contracted deafness of the
left ear, chronic catarrhal Indigestion
and kidney disease.

ELOPEMENT ENDS
IN SUICIDE ROUTE

ROME, Nov. 22-The press reports
dramatic sequel to the elopement O.
Queen Margherita's first ladyin-wait.
ing, Signorina Livia Malfatti with
Omar Rifaat Bey, late Turkish attache
to the embassy here.
The flight of the couple, brought
about by the present state of hostili-
ties between their respective countries
has been hindered by the merest acct
dent, yet in the most dramatic circum-
stances imaginable. The lovers had
recently announced their betrOthal,
only to hear it ruthlessly condemned
in the high court circles in which they
moved Despite this, they continued
to meet. At the outbreak of war Rifaat
Bey, along with the Turkish ambassa-
dor and other high officials, had to
arrange to leave Italy without delay.
Putting forward some excuse for not
travelling to Constantinople with his
superiors, the attache met Mile Nal
fatti secretly and travelled with her to
Genoa, where the lovers waited a con-
siderable period for Turkish vessel
upon which Omar Bey had booked in
his own name, in order to get the best
accommodation. AS later events proved
this was his undoing.
AS the vessel with the clippers on
board was making the Straits of Mes
sina, the Italian battleship Doria sight
ed her, and in accordance with the
rules of the blockade, ordered her to
heave to, a pinnace putting off to in
quire the vessels errand and to obtain
list of her passengers.
On scanning this list, the warship's
commander, Admiral Malfatti, read the
name of Omar Bey. Though ignorant
of his daughters elopement he at once
decided to board the vessel, as he was,
of course, aware OF her infatuation.
The first person he was confronted
with on mounting the gangWay was
the attache himself, who, previously
as to the cause Of the adj
visit, took it for granted that
the game was up, and before a word
had been exchanged, announced that
his "wife" was below

ton, with it's women as it's allies, to-
night began house-to-house canvass
of it's own, which Will last until cleo
ton day. Where the occupant of the
house is an Alexander adherent, the
socialist women who have undertaken
the canvass will try to influence the
servants to support the socialist-labor
candidates.

power, or whether job Hartman, So

candidate for the union labor element,
shall be elevated to the mayoralty.
Old party lines are obliterated.
Many have swung into line behind
Mayor Alexander, alleging that social
ism will interfere with the prosperity
of the city. The argument is made
that vote for Hartman is vote of
reputation for all that the city needs

is taken.
The Hartman followers ridicule this
argument, promising that, if Hartman
is elected, leading bond houses of Chi

all bonds for public improvement that
are offered and at a better premium
than is now being offered.
Hartman carried the primaries
when the vote was restricted to the

SPECIAL AGENTS AND IMMUNITY.

SPECIAL AGENTS AND IMMUNITY
More power to Governor Hawley
He is thoroughly aroused over the
surprising Robnett episode and he
purposes to expose to the President
the Astounding infamy of the common
practices of special government
prosecutors and special" government
agents who purchase testimony with
pardons or immunity. The Western
country is alive with special agents
sent out from Washington. They seek
to make good by heaping dirt on
stalwart and useful citizens like
William Hanley, in oregon, or Sen
ator Borah, in Idaho, says the Port
land Oregonian.
1t may be justifiable for prosecu-
ton in a given case to give immunity
to an accomplish in crime when
testimony may be had in no other way
and justice would otherwise be wholly
defeated. But it is not justifiable in
the United States government to en-
ploy an army of special" agents and
prosecutors who adopt uniform pol
icy of bargaining for testimony with
self-confessed criminals, with the fixed
purpose of dragging TO Jail men in the
background, whose conviction would
be really worth while from the stand
point of the prosecution. These
agents, having entangled some fellow
in the net of their Investigations, i'm
mediately set about to break him down
in order to find who. besides himself,
inspired him to commit the crime.
Where a scoundrel, finding himself
face to face with the law, learns that
he will be leniently dealt with if he
tells such a story as the special
agents want him to tell, he is quite
likely to turn states evidence.
There never was a more frivolous
charge brought against any man than
the indictment of Mr.. Hanley for his
per trees cut from the wilds of Steens
Mountain. No grosser outrage on any
citizen anywhere was ever perpetrated
in the name of justice than the arrest
and trial of Senator Borah for his
connection with certain so-called tim
Der land frauds. The utterly ground
less and miserably indefensible char
acter of the accusations was demon
strated when Mr.. Borah submitted the
case to the jury without introducing
any testimony except his own, with
out cross-examining a single witness
of the prosecution, without raising a
single technical point, and without a
syllable of argument. The verdict, be-
ing unanimous, was most complete
vindication of high-minded man
bounded by the law through gang of

and gardeners are taking protective
steps against them. II is not be-

and Ohio and Pennsylvania ceased
paying dividends. On October II,
1877. the Pennsylvania abandoned
the struggle and signed a contract
giving the Standard Oil Company a
practical monopoly of the production
and transportation of oil in the Unit
ed States. In 1878 and 1879 the Oil
Trust owned or controlled by con-
tract every transporting agent in the
oil regions.
In 1881 the Standard Oil Company
Of Ohio. the nucleus of the Standard
Alliance, was a corporation CAPT
talized at $3,50O,000. Then" the
company explains, for convenience
of control and management the
Standard Oil Trust was formed. >"
This was an agreement placing all
of the stock of the various companies
in the hands Of trustees. in return
for which certificate was issued
to the owners. Nine trustees were
named: J. d. Rockefeller, o. n.

ster, and John D. Archbold. At each
annual meeting certificate owners
elected three trustees.
The interstate commerce act in
1877 forbade determinations by rail-
roads, and the Standards special
rates were abolished In spite of
that the company's growth and pros
perty continued. Property of the va
rious companies which entered the
trust in 1877 was valued at SIS, 0O0,-

Company on the ground that it had
become party to an agreement
against public policy. The courts
decision in the following year made
it necessary to dissolve the company
