NEW FEDERAL COURTS.
They Seem to Be Made to Order i'm
Congress.


From the 81. Louis Post t-DisTatch.
We have now special Federal courts to
interpret tariff law and railroad law and
to pass on claims. It is insisted that we
must have more special courts for PEN
sion laws, for land laws, for patent laws,
and G. W. Perkins will never be satisfied
until We have a special court TO interpret
the Sherman law.
Every time a new Federal act is passed
in the future. will 1t become necessary
to create a new court of special jurisdic-
ton TO interpret it? But even that does
not justify creating new courts TO pass
on old laws whose phraseoiogy has been
repeatedly construed and whose principle
is firmly established.
If criminal exponents of big business
are entitled to have their crimes dealt
with by special tribunals, then embezzling
paymasters, thieving postal employees,
counterfeiters. violators Of the revenue
statutes may validly insist on having
each OF their several classifications Of
offenses dealt with by special tribunals
as well, with the privilege OF seeking
judicial instructions on how to get the
goods without violating the law.

where the late Queen spent several win

KARAKULE SKINS
ON EXHIBITION
DR.. Young Shows Some
Skins Obtained From
Constructing.

Persian lamb, Astrachan, Krimmer
Buffalo substitute and other valuable
furs raised by DR.. c. c. Young on his
ranch at Belen, Texas, are now on ex-
hibition in the show windows of the
White House.
These furs are obtained by crossing
karakule rams with Lincoln, COtSWald,
CheviOt, Shropshire and Merino ewes.
The names Persian lamb, Astrachan and
krimmer are merely trade marks,
brought into existence by furriers and
do not express the composition of the
various sheep that create them.
The sOcalled Persian lamb fur, IA
mOusly known for its tight, black, lUs-
trous curls is not pI Oduced by the So
called Persian BrOadtail sheep, but is
the result of a cross between a Kara
kule buck and any longwool, lustrOus
eve, such as Lincoln, Cotswold, Leices-
ter, DartmOre, etc.
The half blood black skins, obtained
the first few days after birth are hard
to distinguish from the black quarter
bloods, the One-eighth on the other
hand being of gray color, constituting
the sOcalled KTimmer.
OF great wonder are skins produced
in Washington. D. c., by the depart
ment of agriculture, with one of DR..
YOung's Karakule bucks, which was
bred TO red, bristle haired Barbados
stink goat. These goats have from
three to six kids to every lambing and
are worthless on account of their odor
When bred to Karakule rams, beautiful
black figured velvet like fur was pro-
duced.
In all As skins are on exhibition in

COMMERCE COURT REVERSAL.

1t was a notable victory for the In.
terstate Commerce Commission when
the L. S. Supreme Court overruled the
Commerce Court. which had denied to
the Commission the right to demand
reports from water transportation lines
and from intrastate railways. AS the
Supreme Court pointed out, the Com
merce Court did not take into account
the difference between requiring re-
ports and regulating traffic, which are
questions vet to be decided It is con
ceded that the Interstate Commerce
Commission cannot interpose to regu-
late intrsstate transportation where
that transportation does not interfere
with the general regulations of inter.
state railway freigbtage. But, even
In the case of intrastate transporta-
ton, the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion has the right, according to the
decision Of the Eighth Judicial Circuit
Court, 10 demand that the iptrastate
rates shall conform TO the interstate
railway schedules.
The uniform holding of the Inter
state Commerce Commission on all cases
Of this kind is in strict conformity with
the law, and IT would seem as though
there was very small chance of hav-
ing the Supreme Court Of the United
States aunul the power OF the Inter
state Commerce Commission in this re.
gard. In acting for the regulation of
interstate commerce. the commission
acts by authority Of Congress. which,

posed of mothers anxious for the propcr
marriage of their daughters, has drawn
up list of questions which any young
man must answer before he can win
the hand of the daughter of those moth

is only one side of the question.
Mothers have sons AS well as daughters,
and the mothers club which has drawn
np this list of questions for young men

meeting, draw up a corresponding list
of questions for young women to
answer who aspire to marry the sons
OF those mothers.
This is only doing the fair thing all

are to marry rs they could possibly be

it is much harder To please a mother
with daughter-in-law than with a
son-in-law: and so, no doubt, the mem

record of the young men who aspire TO
marry their daughters. will be CORE
spondingly anxious and careful about
the record and qualifications OF the
young women who aspire TO marry their
sons.
This is nothing but fair all around.
and the move is certainly in the right
direction in both cases. for too much
care cannot be exercised in the matter
OF marriage and we trust tnat mothers
