GOVERNMENT HAS
EYE ON RUTLAND
Likely TO Act If New York Courts Dis
solve the Injunction Against
Merger.

Washington, July s.-The department
of justice will closely watch the prog
ress of the negotiations for the absorp-
tion of the Rutland railway by the New
York, New Haven d Hartford, against
which Justice Gerard of the New York
supreme court, Friday continued an in
junction on the ground that the merger
would be in violation of the Sherman
antitrust law. This action was taken
on the application of the minority stock
holders of the Rutland road.
Should the case be thrown out upon
appeal to the appellate division of the
state supreme court on the ground that
the Sherman law is beyond the juris-
diction of state court, the federal gov
eminent may take up the matter, it is
said. if the attorney general believes
the merger violates the antitrust stat
ute.
The minority stockholders claim the
lines are practically parallel and are
competing. 1t was along that issue
that the famous Northern Securities case
was decided by the supreme court of
the United States.

the Republican party wherein he stated
that il would be a shame to pass such a
measure, let me state that for the past
ten years the workers Of this state have
been demanding just such a measure and
have on every occasion pointed out the
desirability of its passage. And let me
ask the question, your honor, why not :
Why is there an exemption for law
yers' books? Why is there an exemp-
ton law for farmers, etc. Why has
nearly every state in the union an eN
emption law, except Vermont And,
finally, is it fair that working man
should have his wages attached and left
without cent to keep the wolf from
his door, | admit there are some store
keepers in this city who are fair and
patient with many of their customers.
but they are few and far between--if
the stories told are true, and, moreover,
these stories are not all told by dead
beats All we ask is a square deal be-
fore the law, and feel sure that if the
measure passes into law that it win not
only benefit the wage-earners, but the
storekeeper as well.

A Child's Fatal PENNY

In an article on "The Fatal Penny
in the July Woman's Home Companion,
Mary Heaton Worse describes the sick
ness that child can buy with one cent.
Following is an extract:
Making one-cent candy is in itself
a large branch of the candy business /;
tons of it are manufactured every wear.
The fundamentals of the trade are these
to give as large an amount of some
sweet substance as is possible for a
cent; to make the substance into the
most attractive shape; to ornament it
with gaudy colors.
at is perfectly astonishing how much
of sweetness five cents can buy. For
five cents you may buy six highly col
ored candies about the size of marbles !;
all-dsy suckers, two for one cent; 4
pink, frothy marshmsllow thing, family
smelling of banana oil and shaped like
a banana; two little men made out of
licorice paste; a taffy on a stick ealcu-
lated to destroy the teeth of childhood
in record time-all these for five cents.
Quite a respectable collection when you
get it together-for bulk. It's variety
is pleasing to the imagination, and its
violent lines are as attractive to the
primitive color sense of the child as any
carefully planned Froebel toy.
There is, indeed, no question to be
raised against this candy, except the vi
tai one: Is it good for the infants
stomach? Do you think that the FIVE
year old digestion of your child will be
bettered by receiving to itself slab of
amorphous matter sweetened with glu-
cose, favored with mint, and colored
with green vegetable dye, the whole con-
coction an inch and a half wide and
three inches long? Let me hastily say
that none of the ingredients in this form
of sweets is in itself necessarily poison
Gus; also, they are usually manufac-
tured under sanitary conditions. and the
ingenuity of their appealing shapes and
the variety of their hues are certainly
to be commended, but-are they good
for children to eatf
until the child is ten years old, at
least, it seems not too much to ask that
the mother should know all that her
child eats. II is during those years that
a child's physical health is being formed
for good or i'll. The continual little gas
trio upsets, choleras, nauseas, and all the
other minor ills that keep children home
from school for a day or two are almost
without exception the result of iniudi.

ills could be traced to the fatal penny,
