The decision of the supreme
court in the Standard Oil
case reminds one Of a story
of a certain gang Of men
who had been apprehended
for misappropriating a lot
OF other peoples goods.
During the trial the evidence
was not such that any one
particular individual could
be convicted, but it was
shown that a barn full of the
purlioned stuff had been
found, piled up indiscrimi-
nately. The judge decided
that proof was not sufficient
to convict of larceny, but
directed the gang to segre-
gate the goods and pile them
up on shelves in an orderly
manner. That is to say, the
Standard having gouged the
producers and the public
right and left, indiscrimi.
nately, and heaped up it's
profits, the court does not
find the combination guilty,
but directs it how to proceed
in the future in order to keep
its operations within the law

shelves and proceed about it's

A State Health Train.

Louisiana's Health Train
is a new wrinkle in state ad
vertising. Louisiana has a
world of agriculture resources
waiting development. She
has fine commercial possibili'
ties. She has some mineral
resources Of great value, no
tably her sulphur wells. She
has a large timber produc'
ton. What she needs now
is Northern capital and en-
ergy. She knows that the
Northerner looks with suspi'
cion on her climate, believ'
ing it to be somehow un'
healthy. Therefore, she
sends the states chief medical
officer, equipped with a
special train, up through the
doubling North to spread
the good news of louisiana s
healthfulness.
1t is a piece of enterprise
that deserves the reward it
seeks. And in a broad sense,
Louisiana's claim is true.
We are not ready to say
whether Northern men, or
white men from anywhere,
can work in the fields under
a Louisiana sun in summer
time with impunity. But
when the president Of Louisi.
ana's state board of health
says that most Of the diseases
hitherto attributed to climate
are preventable, and can be
banished with little expense
or difficulty, he is telling
the truth. Panama and
Cuba are two subject lessons
which the world is slow to
comprehend. But they show
that perfect healthfulness
can be maintained in much
hotter and moister climates
than that of Louisiana.
What we would like to know
now that in the smaller cities
and country districts OF
Louisiana the lessons of
tropical medicine had been
taken to heart and that the
good work of ridding the
land of malaria and hook
worm is we'll begun n.-Denver

4 QUEER LEGEND.

FEEDER kesmieh, the Hsrmi&, May Have
Been . Russian Gear.
A curious legend is associated with
the name Of Alexander I. Of Russia.
1t Is to the effect that the emperor in
1925 was sojourning In the Crimea.
When near Taganrog his coachman by
some means managed to overturn the
carriage of a court courier named
Markof. who was killed. The en-
peror. wishing to rid himself Of the
cares of state. so the story runs, caus-
ed it to be reported that it was he
himself who was killed. Then he car
ried out a plan which he had for long
conceived Of retiring to Siberia and
living there under an assumed name.

have satisfied himself that at all
events the remains in the Cathedral
Of Peter and Paul are those Of the
courier. Schiller asserts that he learn

Markof.

1925 a mysterious stranger appeared
in Siberia. He gave his name as Fe-
dor Kosmich and never revealed any
other or the place whence he came.
He lived the life Of q hermit and was
received generally with respect. In
1856 he accepted the invitation Of a
rich merchant to take up his abode in
his house at Tomsk. There he was
very retired and held communication
only with Mile. Kromof and the mer-
chant. her father. Every one who
saw him was struck with his ex-
t%raordinary resemblance to the de-
funct czar. The Grand Duke Mich.

IRISH BROGUE.
It Is Really tho Old Time Method Of
~Proncuncinu Enqlish.


Perhaps nothing illustrates better
the vicissitudes Of pronunciation in
English than a study of what is called
the Irish brogue." This lingual mode,
for it is scarcely to be called q dialect,
is usually presumed to be a deteriora-
ton of language due to lack of educa-
ton and contact with legitimate
sources Of English. 1t proves after a
little study to be a preservation of the
old method of ~pronouncing English.
which has come down to a great de
gree unchanged in Ireland from Shake
Speare's time.
In EliZabeth's time. however, it came
to be realized that if there was to be
any real utilization of the two countries
then the Irish language must be sup
planted by English. and a ezanite eff
fort in this direction was made. This
change of speech. resented and resist
ed. was nevertheless successfully ac-
complished all over the island except
in the west within a decade after
S~hakespeare's death. This fact takes
on a new significance when we study
what we now call the Irish brogue in
connection with what is known to have
been the pronunciation of English at
that time. The two are found to o n
form in practically every respect.
Irishmen pronounce English as their
forefathers learned it and have pre-
served its pronunciation because they
have been away from the main cur
rent of English speech variation ever
since.-Harper's Magazine.

1t is expected that the big con-
test will come over the bringing
into court of the ballots and the

special steps will be taken to
bring in the ballots further than
a subpoena directed to the county
