man law. That is organized la
Dor.
yet it is a curious fact that
while the courts have carefully
protected investors in trusts
against loss of-valueS, the only in
stance where the extreme pen
atty of threefold damages has
been imposed is in the case Of a
labor organization.
"The court has gone to the ex-
tent of Selling upon the savings
of labor organization and order
ing that these little investments
should be paid over, as far as they
went, toward giving the employ
ers three times the damages that
the union had caused them.
at is strange that when the
court goes to the limit in impos-
ing penalties on combinations of
capital, all the capitalist owners
get away with the full value of
their property even although the
court explicitly states that these
capitalist owners committed
crimes in getting that property;
and when the court goes to the
same limit in imposing penalties.
on combinations of labor, it takes
away the homes and small saw
ings Of the union members.
"a law which treats investors
as innocent if they form a trust
and guilty if they form a union,
does not command the respect of
the American people.

should be amended so as to take
out from under its operation all
labor organizations and employ
ers' associations, according to the
original intent of the law.
Such combinations do not
regulate prices of commodities,
but the wages and conditions of
labor.
THE people are just as much
interested in having high stand
ard of living for labor as they are
in having a low cost of living in
their purchase of commodities.
Labor is at tremendous dis
advantage in bargaining unless
organized. Even when organ
lied, it is at a disadvantage, mas
much as capital is more easily or
gained.
"The law should be amended
so as to affirm positively that, so
far as wage contracts are con-
cerned, an act which would not
be criminal in any individual,
shall not be criminal if committed
by any association of individuals.
"The laws designed to prevent
industrial monopoly have been
used to suppress the unions and
the cooperative efforts of wage
earners and farmers to protect
the value of their labor against
the moneyed monopolies.

Blind Arabs of the Desert,

The Arabs have saying to the ef- feet that when you travel through the country of the blind be blind yourself" and, though, like all proverbs, it is doubtless not intended to be taken literally, still the malady of blindness is so common in Algeria, especially among the tribes that inhabit the oases of the Sahara, that the traveller may almost stop and ask himself if be has indeed come to that country of the blind. The prevalence of eye disease is due perhaps to the intense dazzling brilliance of the desert sun and to that complete absence of shade which must be endured by the wandering Saharan. The Arabs are normally very Kind and respectful to the aged or infrm, and a blind man or woman will seldom lack an escort of one or more children to pilot them safely along the roads. and who, if they are still young and active enough to work. will assist them in
 hoisting their load of sticks or barley
 upon their backs and see them safely home to the humble dwelling that shelters them.-Wide World Magazine.

The Liars Mound,

Dyaks, natives of Borneo, are ex- tremely truthful. So disgraceful, 1n- deed, do the Dyaks consider the de ceiving of others by an untruth that such conduct is handed down to poster ity by a curious custom. They heap up a pile of the branches of trees in mem ory of the man who has uttered a great lie so that the future generations may know of his wickedness and take warning from it. The persons deceived start the "tugong bula"-the liars mound-by heaping up large number of branches in some conspicuous spot by the side of the path from one vil- lage to another. Every passerby con- tributes to it and at the same time curses the man in memory of whom it is. The Dyaks consider the adding to any tugong bula they may pass sa- cred duty, the omission of which will meet with supern atural punishment.

Junnino Jack Tars.

The rhythmic jumping of $50 blue jackets saved H. M. s. Commonwealth from the fate of the Montagu when she ran aground in a dangerous place. The battleship Montagu was abandon ed as hopeless wreck off the Cornish coast. but her sister ship, the Common wealth. was safely got off by the mus. cular exertion of her crew. The Com monwealth ran on to an uncharted rock when returning from target practice and was badly damaged. She was SC nicely balanced in her lodgment, how ever, that 1t was decided after revers- ing the engines had failed to extricate her to try the experiment of mastering all the available hands on the extreme aft and setting them to jump in uni son. The regular jumping of twenty five tons of solidly built seamen had had the effect of making the huge yes sel rock seesaw fashion until she grad ually floated off with the rising tide. In fifteen minutes she was afOat and saved.-Pearson's Weekly.

Homer Cummings
 Favors Primaries
But National Committeeman Says They Are Not Practicable
 Here This Year

Stamford, March 1S-Homer 8 Cummings, Connecticut's democratic national committeeman, favors the principle of the presidential primary, but he does not believe it can be used in Connecticut at present. The expense of this undertaking is one of the preventives, he mentioned. He intimated, too, that common sense should make it apparent that the time is not ripe in Connecticut at least not until the state convention has had an opportunity of acting up- on the proposition for presidential primaries.
 'There will be no presidential pri- mary in Connecticut this year, in my opinion,'' said MT. Cummings. Tn the first place our state convention is very representative. Moreover, it is pretty certain that Governor Bald. win will be the unanimous choice of ident. For these reasons there appears to be no great demand for it. An other preventive would be the cost of such primaries. There is not money enough in the treasury of the state central committee to pay for them. It would cost thousands of dollars and would necessitate the development Of machinery in various parts of the state, for which no provision had been made.
 Personally, I am in favor of the principle of the presidential primary, and I would be very glad to see the day when that method or some similar method would be enforced in this state But it is not practical in Con- necticut at this time.''

SLAVONIAN MERCHANTS
 ORGANIZE ASSOCIATION
Propose To Protect Each Other Against Bad DebtS-Officers
 Chosen.

The Slovenian merchants are to have an organization of their own. In behalf of a number of the storekeepers Sheriff Joseph Kalafus called together about 40 of the dealers at Sokol Hall and it was voted to organize the S1a- yonian Business Mems Association. Joseph l.. Stempel, the Hallett street clothier was elected temporary pres1> dent and the other temporary officers are Andrew Kanhanes, secretary; An drew Zitney, organizer. The next meeting will be held in two weeks
 The purpose of the organization will be to insist upon a strict observance of the law among it's members who are in the liquor business and to pro- credit. Many of the dealers have sus- tained heavy losses through extending credit and the delinquent debtors have had no trouble in the past chang. ing grocers and butchers, leaving a trail of debts behind them. The bad debtors are not as rule the house. holders but boarders at boarding houses.
 Boarding house keepers among the Slavish people do not take sboarders for a flat rate for food supplied but charge for preparing the food, leaving it to the boarder to pay his own bills with the butcher and the grocer.
 The boarding houses mistress carries a credit pass book for each of her boarders and gets what the boarder orders by use of the book. The new association intends to get better ac- ouainted with the man who is to pay the bills before giving credit in the future

She Was Buried Alive.

Lady Catherine Wyndham, daughter of the Duke of Somerset, wife of MT. William Wyndham and mother of the first Earl of Egremont, died (as was supposeO at Orchard Wyndhams, the family seat in Somersetshire. and was buried in a vault beneath the Church of St. Decuman's, near Watchet. The sexton went down into the vault at night, opened the coffin and endeavored to force a ring off her finger. Lady Catherine awoke from her trance, got up and lighted herself home with a lantern which the sexton had left be- hind in the vault when he fled in ter TOT. A few months after she presented her husband with twins, one of whom became Sir Charles Wyndham and Earl of Egremont.-London Truth.

Homeopathv.

Homeopathy is a theory of medicine promulgated by pr. Samuel Hahne- mann Q755-1S43) of Leipsic in 1910. It asserts that any disease should be treated by medicines in minute doses that would produce in a healthy pa tient symptoms similar to those mani fested by the disease requiring treat ment. This is the principle of Hike diseases are cured by like remedies Gatin. similia similibus curantur) and is based on the theory that two simi- larly diseased conditions cannot sub- sist in the same organ at the same time.

CLEVELAND MEMORIAL SERVICE
Held in Caldwell Church, of Which His Father Was Pastor.

Caldwell, N.J., March 1s.-Services in commemoration of the seventy fifth birthday anniversary of the birth of Grover Cleveland were held last night in the Presbyterian Church here. Mrs Cleveland was present. The speakers were Dr. John H. Fin ley, president of the College of the City of New York; Dr. Paul Van Dyke. son of Dr. Henry Van Dyke, and pr. John D. Bryant, who was Cleveland's physician.
 The church in which the services were held is only a short distance from the house in which Cleveland was born and of which seventy five years ago his father was pastor. A movement has been started to estab- fish the old Cleveland manse as a memorial to the former President and an option on the property has been obtained. The campaign for the larger memorial fund that has been raised outside of Caldwell, which will give $5,000, has been begun.

BRIEFS.

The second in the series of lectures
 by the Rev. E. c. Carpenter drew a large congregation to the Methodist
 church last night. The lecture was
 scenes in the life of the Saviour and places connected with his life and death. Miss B. Derby sang a solo, Rowe Wheeler has taken a flat in the remodelled Bristol home on Main street, where he will reside with his mother. He will have telephone con nection and may be called at any time.
 The first "peeper'' of spring was heard at Buck swamp yesterday by a young lady on her way to church so the report would be authentic even if it was not zorro borated by a man
 who passed the swamp last night and heard the same lone harbinger of
 spring or another of the same family.
 The little fellow is evidently a little premature for even after the frogs and peppers are heard in large num- bers they must be frozen up" three times before they come to stay for
 the summer. At least that is the be- lief which has become recognized as the general order of nature. While one peeper, no more than one blue
 bird makes spring yet the report will bring joy to many hearts in this town for no winter in the remembrance of that oldest inhabitant has made itself
 so unwelcome a guest as that of 1911 and 1912 and everyone is hoping to see the last frost soon.
 The ground has thawed to the
 depth of 10 or 12 inches and in some localities it is reported that the frost is entirely gone Three to four feet of frost has been reported in some places.
