PROSECUTION OR PERsECUTIoNq

dedicated to Nationally
How long shall Persecution Is shame
Hide under Prosecution s namef
How long shall enmity and spite
Deprive an honest man of right
How long shall secret sleuths hold sway
In public place and private pay,
Defying every law and creed
To crafty rivals needs
Shall clear and proven innocence
No longer constitute defensef
Must man defend his liberty
Time after time, increasingly,
Until his busy fruitful life
Is spent in courtroom farce and strife,
And every slander, lie and shame
Affixed with falsehood to his namef
Trial after trial has come to naught,
While judges yawned and lawyers
fought,
Time after time twelve men have said
" No guilt rests on this honest head, -
And still the unjust war proceeds
While every public pocket bleeds
To pay what malice, greed and spite
Exact in Prosecution s right!
The time has come to cease this sham;
The wolf, in clothing of a lamb,
Stands naked in his sordid hide.
Stripped clean of every claim to bride;
A hireling, who by craft and stealth
Gains government and private wealth;
hypocrite, whose life is sold
In slavery for one mans gold
Shall that mans spite and this man s
greed
No voice of right or reason heeds
Shall jurors vote and public mind
No representing power find
To check this wicked, idle shame
That seeks, in Prosecution Is name
To prosecute, debase and spoil
man whose heart is in our soil!
A man who built, and built again,
Whose hand has helped unconuted men,
While others public money spend
To persecute a public friend
Injustice, vain and sinful waste,
Have Prosecution IS name disgraced;
The public cried, Enough expense.'
'sDesist, and give us confidence!'

VIVA. 2 CENT
CASE IS ARGUED
GEN. CONLEY DENIES
LAW Is CONFISCATORY
Tells Supreme Court Law Is Valid
Despite Protests of the Con-
testing Road.
By Z. II. ARNOLD.
TaWANNN.-.-

Washington, D. c., April 8.
arguments In the suit OF the Cheas-
peake and Ohio railway against the
state OF West Virginia testing the
right OF the legislature OF the latter
state TO pass two cent passenger rate
law were heard before the supreme
court OF the United States today. The
outcome OF this case affects all the
West Virginia carriers, whose track
age compromises moro than so miles
The argument today was over the
writ Of error granted by the supreme
court OF West Virginia, which allow
ed the Chesapeake and Ohio to appeal
from the decision OF the lower courts
which had been unfavorable TO the
railways on the grounds OF confiscat:
ion OF property. Attorney General
Gonley argued the case for the state
OF West Virginia. and cited many pre-
cedents showing that the state regu-
lation OF railways does not necessar-
rily entil cOnfiscation OF carriers prop
erty. He cited authorities in favor OF
this contention as far back as 1893.
when the legislature OF Pennsylvania
passed similar measure to that pass
ed by the West Virginia legislature OF
1909.
The Pennsy lvania legislature in
regulating interstate traffic in 1893
decreed that the toll on any species
Of property shall not exceed an aver.
age OF four cents per ton per mile,
nor upon each passenger an average
Of two cents per mile.
Mr. Conley charged in sincereity on
the part 81 the railroads lie said
that upon the passage of the two cent
law the Chesapeake and Ohio had
raised their freight rates on the bases
that the enactment of the passenger
rate Law made such action necessary.
When they secured an injunction pro
hibit.nE from enforcing. that act thev
however did not reduce those freight
rates. declared Mr Coniey
