TIE Law Of Our Land.

A law may be foolish law. There
are thousands of laws which, for
good practical reasons are not en-
forced, says Robert Sloss in an arti-
Gle in Success Magazine entitled
why Is an Express Company"
Law is merely an expression Of the
popular will, and if the popular will
is not behind the law, or does not
stay behind it, that law should not
exist. And If you and I and all of
us do not want a law enforced, who
is going to enforce It?
Here is Section 1S1, Revised Stat
utes of the United States, passed
March 4, 1909. At that time there
had already been in existence for 40
years and more a law covering the
same point. For 40 years and more
the express business of this country
had been operated in direct violation
of the older statute. There is no
question about It. In so far as the
express companies compete with the
postoffice department in carrying
mailable matter-and that is no
mean share of the express business
they are breaking this law.
Whoever shall establish any pri-
vate express for the conveyance of
letters or packets, or in any manner
cause or provide for the conveyance
of the same by regular trips or at
stated periods over any post route
which is or may be established by
law or from any city, town or place
to any other city, town or place be-
tween which the mail is regularly
carried, or whoever shall aid or as
sist therein. shall be fined not more
that $500 or imprisoned not more
that six months, or both.
Provided, that nothing contained
in this section shall be construed as
prohibiting any person from receiv-
ing and delivering to the nearest
postoffice, postal car or other author
lied depository for mail matter any
mail matter properly stamped"
You may wonder why the law has
not been enforced against the ex-
press companies. Not long ago the
United States circuit court dismissed
a suit brought under this law by Ma
than B. Williams, of Fayetteville, Ar
kansas, on the ground that private
citizen had no right to bring suit
against the express companies for
operating against the law over the
post roads; such suit, said the court,
could be brought only by the govern
ment
Thereupon, p r. Howard, of Gin
cinnati brought pressure on the at
torney general to act against the ex-
press companies. The answer was
the following statement, and issued
by the department of Justice:
"The department has made very
complete study of the proposition and
agrees with Mr.. Williams on the law,
except as to the one point, namely,
that there has been an admlnistra-
tive construction against the propo-
sition for over 40 years, and the
chances are that suit will be de-
feated on that ground"
Our government, ignoring the new
er statute, takes the position Of kill
ing, by administrative construction"
what is supposed to be the popular
will.

Ii is coming to be pretty we'll IN
derstood in this country that the man
who steals a million dollars stands
an equal chance of going to prison
with the unfortunate who steals food
for his starving sell or family. Chas.
w. Morse of New York and John r.
Walsh of Chicago, both bank wreck
ers and hooters of the money en-
trusted to them by confiding deposit
tors, the former under sentence for
fifteen years and the latter for five
years, have been denied pardon by
President Taft. In his action the
president has the full approval of the
people. Both men are convicted
felons of the worst stripe, and Meth
er is entitled to any more ~considera-
ton than the worst criminal wear
ing the stripes with them. Not only
did they steal the money of their
banks, but after being caught used
considerable of the stolen money in
lawyers fees in their endeavor TO
avoid paying the penalty OF their
crimes. Both %eonyiets are or were
millionaires. but neither IS any better
than the highwayman who stole but
failed to get away with as much as
they did.

BAILINGER Is HONORED.
Former Secretary of Interior Given
Reception by Citizens of
Home City.

Henry NJ. Fulmer is in receipt of a
communication from the Seattle
Commercial club. of which organiZa-
ton he is a member, advising him of
a big reception TO former Secretary
Richard A. Ballinger, which took
place in Seattle a week ago last night
At the head OF the reception we're the
mayor of the city and the officers of
the Rainer club, Arctic club, Rotary
club, Merchants association, Credit
mems association, Manufactures as
ISOLATION, Clearing House associa-
ton, Commercial club and Seattle
Chamber of Commerce.
The reception was an informal af-
fair at which Mr.. Ballinger was pre-
sented to the citizens of the town and
their wives, after which there was
dancing and refreshments. Ii is not
often that a prophet is honored in
his own country. but the people of
Seattle turned out in force to greet
their citizen.

Although the loss of life in the
Belmont accident last month was
deeply deplored by all and was a
most regretable affair. the blow is
softened in a great measure by the
l~iberality and kindness shown by
the Belmont people in its dealings
with the beneiciaries. We are re-
liably informed that, while the com
pany was i'm nowise held liable for

manifested the most cheerful spirit
in its dealings with the relatives of
the miners who lost their lives. and
that a settlement has been made
with practically all concerned, thus
doing away with any suits that may
have been contemplated and allow
ing all of the money to go direct to
those who were left dependent. BY
following this method the Belmont
company has demonstrated its will

and also its desire to see that the

Colonel Theodore Roosevelt is due
tomorrow in Reno, and is going to
talk to the assembled hosts on the
subject of "A Progressive State"
Just what scope his address will take
cannot be foretold, but the former
president enjoys the reputation of
going very thoroughly into any cause
he may espouse. and there is no
doubt that he will do full justice to
his subject. Whether he will land on
the chief industry of Reno-its di-
yorce colony-can but be imagined.
He has strong views on the sanctity
of the home, race suicide and the
duties of men toward women and of
women toward men. On the latter
subject he IS quoted in a recent
speech as follows:
1T has always seemed to .me that
no man was worth his salt who didn't
think of woman's rights-and no
woman was worth her salt who didn't
thing of her duties. Temperamental-
ly, I am in favor Of woman's rights.
/ have studied the question
thoroughly. but it has always seemed
to me far less important than other
questions affecting women. The
thing to do is to bring to women a
realization thai their great work
must be done at home. The ideal

The rescue car of the bureau of
mines has been here and gone, and
during its stay was an object lesson
for the miners as well as the opera
tors of mines. The demonstration of
the use of safety devices was follow
ed with interest by both classes, and
the lesson was a lasting one. Every
mine should be equipped with he'll
NETS of some description, and the
miners trained in their use. Had
their use been understood at the
Tonopah Belmont mine and had the
latter been equipped with them it is
safe to say that there would not have
been any disaster. The bureau OF
mines is doing good work and its
value has been more than demon
strated.
