BURNS, THE BLESSED.

A cablegram from Rome, pub

cited that William J. Burns, "the
famous American detective" has
received a especial portifcal bless
ing" and been commended by the
pope for "his great work in the
CO use of justice"
Inasmuch as the pope is infallible
on questions of faith and morals, we
must presume, in face Of the facts
as revealed by Messrs. Wickersham
and Taft in the Oregon land fraud
cases where they proved conclusively
that Burns was engaged in jury fix

just what the unfortunate engineer claimed
it had done with him-that it ran more than
two hundred feet beyond where the wreck
occurred when the experts tried to stop it on
the same signals that were given the day of
the wreck.
James Mellen is the lieutenant of Morgan &
Go. who runs-the New Haven roads for divi-
dends at the cost of so many human lives
He has piled up dividends for the Morgan
Rockefeller crowd in order that they could
get complete monopoly of the transporta-
ton facilities of New England.
And they have gotten just about all they
want by being allowed to gobble up compel
ing lines, trolley lines, steam boat lines and
water fronts and docks.
While the New Havens earnings are among
the biggest of any railroad in the United
States, only about 10 per cent of the earn
1ngs has been spent for upkeep, etc.,-the
bigger part Of the balance going to crush out
competitors and get legislation favorable to
the New Haven.
In fact almost at the very hour the wreck
occurred, the legislative agents of the New
Haven were ramming down the threats of
the people of Massachusetts a law, over the
veto Of Gov. Foss, giving them the right to
buy up competing trolley lines
There will certainly be criminal prosecu-
tions for this last wreck, but will the prose
cution reach those who are really to blame
for existing conditions?
Mellen may be prosecuted, and he may be
convicted, but ought Justice to be satisfied
with that result?
If Mellen refused to run the New Haven
any other way than ordered by Morgan &
Co. and Rockefeller, Mellen would not run it
at al, another head would be named who
would obey orders, and Mellen would be
minus a job.
So after all, ought not the heaviest punish
ment to fall on Rockefeller and the heads of
the Morgan firm?
Why should they be spared the peniten-
tiary when they deserve it?

has handed down several important opinions
