George White versus the Lawrence
Water Company, is on trial here.
The plaintiff, George White, is ask
ing for the sum of $500 from the
Lawrence Water company for the
expenses incurred and the loss Of
services Of his wife during the lat
ter's sickness and also the illness
of a son, said sickness, it is alleged,
was caused by the use of water said
to have been taken from the pipes
of the Lawrence Water company,
and which, it is further alleged, was
impure.
The plaintiff endeavored to prove
this contention. A number OF ex-
perts, including physicians and uni
versity men and DR.. S. ], Crumbine
of the state board of health were
called as witnesses. 1t was hoped
to show by these witnesses that the
water was impure. Mrs. White told
of her illness and of the water used
Il by the family. A number of other
witnesses were called by the plain
tiff.
The defense contends that 1t is
impossible to trace the cause of ill
ness to the use of water and to
establish this as fact. The water
company also states that the White
home was not piped for water at
the time mentioned.

KANSAS HOUSE FAVORS
GAME PROPAGATION,

Topeka, Feb. 1S.-Half of the
proceeds collected in Kansas from
hunting and fishing licenses will be
used for the propagation of game,
and the other half for the propaga-
ton of fish, under the terms OF
new fish and game bill passed by
the house yesterday afternoon.
A resolution passed the house re-
Gently asking congress to cede to the
state tract of 10000 acres In
Hamilton, Kearney, Haskell, Grant
and Finney counties, known as the
Kansas national forest reserve. II
the government gives Kansas this
tract 1t is to be used as preserve
for the propagation of game.
The fish and game bill passed by
the house requires license for both
fishing and hunting, The fee OF 81
as heretofore, is however not In
creased. An important feature is the
increasing Of the bag limits. Where
heretofore a Kansas hunter was al
lowed in one day to shoot but twelve
snipe, ducks or plover, he may now
shoot twenty. The wild goose bag
was left at six. Turtle doves, quail
and prairie chickens were put on the
completely protected list.
The seasons were not changed and
are: Geese. brant, ducks, Septem-
Der 10 to April 10; plover, August
/ to November 1; snipe, September
! / to April 80. No game may be shot
from a motor boat, automobile or
vehicle. Persons under IL cannot
hunt with a gun unless accompan-
led by an adult.

TRUSTS LOOK

New Jersey Follows Wilson's Anti
Trust Suggestions.

Decision Attitude Taken by Presi-
dent-Elect While Governor
Will Feature His Term AS
President.

Trenton, N. j., Feb. 1S.-New
Jersey, the mother of the trusts, is
being deserted by its children.
The decisive attitude of Wood
row Wilson, father of the state at
the present time, is the reason OF
the breaking Of family ties. When
Father Wilson found that several
members of his family we're "black
sheep" he set out to weed" his
family yard.
He prepared several family rules
and put them up to. Mother New
Jersey. the state legislature, and
now it appears that she will approve
them and make them real laws OF
the New Jersey household.
One of the bills prohibits the for
nation in the future Of holding
companies and also prohibits present
holding companies from acquiring
additional stock Of other corpora
tons.
Today the American Railways
company. owner Of street railways
and other plants in various parts Of
the country, with Headquarters In
philadelphia. took out charter In
Delaware. 1t essentially is a hold
ing company. 1t is believed that
others OF the children" will leave
home soon.

LEGISLATURE WOULD DOU-
BILE WEDDING FEES.

Topeka, Feb. Walking hand
in hand with the high cost of living
craze, is the proposed legislation
which will make matrimony more
expensive in Kansas. Bills now un-
der consideration in Kansas may
mean a real hardship to hundreds
of young people, who will face 100
per cent increase in the cost OF mat
rimony. 1t is already quite certain
that the cost of wedding in Kansas
will increase after the legislature
adjourns. If bills now pending are
passed, it will cost at least twice as
much to marry after the lawmakers
go home as it will now.
AS soon as the legislators pack
their grips and leave, brand new
law will go into effect which will
permit the probate Judges to charge
total Of $3.50 for marriage IL
cense and wedding-divided $3.50
for license and SO for a wedding.
I dat is an advance of SO cents over
the old price.
But there is another bill pending,
which compels each person who
proposes to we'd to secure a health
certificate. Now health certificates
are 50 each. 1t requires two for a
marriage, which means that the
young and ardent lover must put
away "a more before he can lead
his blushing bride to the altar.

and very modest little wedding

morning there was run on the bank
and it took six tellers to pay the scared
depositors, all of whom who demanded
it being paid as fast as they applied.
The tellers were kept at work all night
and when they were convinced that they
could get their money, the depositors
didn't want it so badly and the run was
checked. The institution is perfectly
solvent and proved it very fully.
We once knew of a similarly useless
run on bank, which the officers stop
ped by getting all the notes, gold and
silver money that they had or could bor-
row and piled it up on the counters.
There were many thousands of it and
tellers we're there to pay it out as fast
as demanded. A few withdrew their
money, but the rest seeing the piles of
it and the readiness of the officers to pay
it out, decided that their holdings were
perfectly safe there and retired. Often
er than otherwise runs on banks are i'll
advised and a little strategy, like that
told of will stop them. People are easy
to scare about their money, but almost
as easy to have their confidence re.
stored.

THAT DIR. Arthur Wager, formerly

scholar and a good schoolmaster we are
here both to affirm and to commend, but
he is not the kind of man that deserves
recognition by the Democratic ap
pointing power. He has been appoint
ed Governor of Porto Rico, but his ap-
pointment will not be pleasing to those
Democrats who, like ourselves, believe
in party regularity and official reward
for party service. If Democrat at all,
DIR. Wager is a very weakened one.
He has supported Democratic nominees
when they suited him, which has not
been often, and his principal efforts
along par y lines have, we are told, been
to knock men and measures Democrat
ic. His appointment will not add a

THREE CONSTRUCTIONS AL
READY.

Who shall decide when judges disa-
gree! 1t is remarkable that no import
ant law is ever regarded as so plain that
judges do not disagree on the meaning
of its provisions. This fact is strongly
impressed by the various interpretations
placed on the Mann White Slave Law
by the Federal judges before whom cas-
es under il have come. In the prosecu-
lions against the California men Judge
VanFleet held that il fully covered them
when two men took two women, old
enough to know better and long past the
age Of consent, to a neighboring State
and they were given penitentiary SEN
fences while the women>went free.
On the other hand Judge Pollock, of
Kansas, expressed the belief that the
purpose Of the law was TO punish certain
forms Of traffic in women and in effect
decided that it did not apply in the Cal
iioruis cases. Another judge, we be
lieve, has rendered an opinion in vari-
ance TO both of these.
II is a pity that law based on good in.
tention and Op urgent need should be the
subject of conflicting decisions and that
all such laws have to run the gauntlet
Of the courts up to the Supreme Court
Of the United States. No penalty can
be too severe for men who seduce wo-
men and for persons who traffic in limo.
cent girls, but when the men and wo-
men are equally guilty and equally
abandoned, there seems no need for the
interposition of the Mann law, but that
local courts should deal to them at once
what should be coming to them. The
Mann law was intended for a higher
and greater purpose that of the proven
tion Of prostitution and the saving of
young girls from destruction.
