LOAN SHARKS.
y WILLIAM 4 AAwpCa

Just when our city Is being sown
with the advertisements Of q loan
company that is operating In this
and neighboring cities is the time to
sound a warming against those not
Iinaptly called t'loan sharks" Not
that this particular company has
earned such a title, but that eveTyT
body may reflect q little upon the
general subject Of lending or Dor
rowing money.

MR.. roFT's GOOD WORK.

The action of Recorder Kehoe in
dismissing the cases brought against
certain coal dealers OF this city by
sealer of Weights and Measures
Henry Toft has caused considerable
comment. Although the sealer had
direct evidence showing that these
men had been selling short weight
coal the recorder held that sufficient
proof was not furnished to show that
there had been an attempt to de-
fraud the purchasers.
To a great many this stand taxi
en- by the recorder, is laying a great
deal OF importance on technicalities,
nevertheless as this city has no or
dinanee covering this matter and as
the state law says the dealer must
have knowledge OF the short weight,
there may ps sssSe gtessnd for the
#AtHA4
C aYfScsr's sctfonT At any rate, the
earn Rsy gFvsT the case may be suf
Geient punishment for the first or
Tense. 1t IL probabfeNthat q great
deal more are will +be~taken In the
future to see that every order is up
to the required weight. There 10
no doubt that the eases have already
had their effectwand people are re-
ceiving the benefit.
Mr.. loft has done the city excel
lent service. Since he has been
holding Office there is no dcabt that
ne has saved the people hundreds OF
dollars. He should receive all the
support necessary, especially from
the city officials. Much credit is due
Mr.. loft for HIS activities in every
line OF his work. He has proven
himself to be the right man In the
right place. The people "a well
AFFORD to pay q salary to such an
Official. as the money is more than
made up In savings which he makes
possible for them. The mere fact
that he is on the Job is keeping
many a dealer straight when before
they did pretty much as they
pleased.
Let Mr., loft continue his work in
the same thorough and we
believe that should a second COM
plant be made against n OF those
he has already brought before the re-
eorder. public opinion will not stand
for any withdrawing of the cases
In the meantime Ii the recorders
contention that the state law is Q
farce Is found correct. the aldermen
should pass an ordinance which will
make 1t possible to punish offenders
when caught. The cost of living Il
high enough and people at least
want all they are paying for.

INCREASED VALUE
OF GEORGETOWN PLANT

To the Editor Of THE TIMES;
VIII you OF some one tell us how it Is
that the valuation of the Georgetown
Gas Company's plan has so wofderfuliy
increased in value in such temark-
ably short time? On December 81, 1907
the president stated that the actusl
cost of the whole property was 500. .625
Three years later. December 81, 1870
the valuation given was $56l 632, an in
crease of over $4,000. Now listen 10
their last statement, made December
81, 1911, when the valuation is given as
81, ,4s6, S53, all increase in one year of
over $500, 900, when the previous increase
for three years had only been Sl50, 900.
Since that report was made they have
bought land and started a new office
building, but this big increase in valu-
alton does not inclnude this, so what
does this enormous increase in valua-
ton come from? Will you or some one
posted in values explain this, for 1t
certainly means an increase in gas bills
to the consumers. 1t would be good
thing for some of our Congressman
or Commissioners to look into this mat
ter and see II this increase is real one
or is it simply an imitation for higher
prices? M. J. B.

MAJOR BUTTS ETIQUETTE STUDIES.

Innocent onlookers who report the doings Of the
Old World are sending back reports that Major
Archibald Butt, while primarily taking a rest after
an arduous season. is improving his time by conferr-
ing with the masters of etiquette in the courts Of
Europe. ..s ,....
We are asked to believe that when he returns he
will inaugurate code of ceremony and suavity which
will place this democratic republic in the forefront
Of polite usage. We almost asked to infer that
ministers and ambassadors may yet adopt gold lace
uniforms instead Of the dreary black of the dress
suit as their Official rament
How little do the foreign observers know the real
Archie. 1t is much more probable that he has gone
to instruct the chamberlans Of "efete monarchies"
in the democratic usages of a free republic. The
idea of his taking seriously Orsini Colonna or
the combined house of Bourbon and Savoy would
make him laugh deep down in his manly military
chest. Learn courtesy at the court of kings! Nay,
BY the Lord Harry,
He'll find where he's going much less than he'll
