ONLY DRANK PINT OF WHITE

"IIappy Bill" Police Court Frequent
er, Fined S5 by Police Judge
Houston.

"Ah was possibly jes' as sobah as
yo was Wen yo arrested me-" eXclaim-
ed Happy BILL frequent police Of
fender when arraigned before Judge
Houston in the municipal court yes
terday on a charge Of drunkenness.
Officer Irwin had just testified that
Happy was intoxicated when he ar
rested him.
Happy Bill" said he had consumed
a half pint of white mule" or alco-
hol. and some whisky, but the guam
tity was not sufficient to produce a
state Of inebriation.
Judge Houston remarked that ow-
ing to the fact that Happy had been
in police court twenty times before
on the same charge and had pleaded
not guilty each time, constituted an
discriminating circumstance that
forced him to impose n fine Of $5 in
the absence Of which amount Happy

Double TAX FOR
railway Vessels
is URGED BY REPRESENTATIVE
STEVENSON IN BILL PRE-
SENTED TO SENATE

WASHINGTON, July 19.-Railroad
control of the Panama canal, the
rights of American ships to free tolls,
and the form of government under
which the canal management is to be
placed, were subjects Of directly op-
rosing arguments today from Senators
Brandege Of Connecticut and Town
send Of Michigan during consideration
OF the canal bill in the senate
Senator Brandege urged the admis-
sion Of all ships to the canal at a
definite toll charge, with no favors
to American vessels. II railroad own
ed ships abused the privileges that
are given them, he said, congress
should then place the offending lines
vi der the jurisdiction of the interstate
commerce commission with power to
deal with the situation.
Senator Townsend urged legislation
tc prevent railroads from getting any
strip on the canal.
Senator Townsend addressed the
senate in advocacy OF a single system
o, government for the Isthmian zone
instead of a commission government.
He interpreted the treaty between
Great Britain and the United States
as permitting the former to allow the
American ships TO pass through the
canal without the payment Of tolls
A blow to British owned railway
steamships which may ply the Pam
anna canal is aimed at in a bill which
Representative Steenerson Of Mime
Sc Ia introduced in the house today.
The bill would provide that any ves-
sci of foreign register now owned oi
controlled In whole or in part by any
railroad company engaged In any
coastwise trade between American
ports via the Panama canal, should
pay double the tolls charged for pass
age through the canal against other
vessels In the coastwise trade.

E1ectrecutiou versus Hanging.

Hanging is a bungling barbarous
mode of executing criminals. I think
electrocution is an improvement on
the old way. The State owes it to her
self and to those convicted Of capital
offenses to see their exit is as hu-
name as practicable. I hope, there
fore, that the legislature at it next sit
ting will substitute electrocution fot
hanging. Citizen.
