WASHINGTON NEWS
BY clyde II. ravenner.

Washington, February 25.-For a
change, the same kind Of justice that
is meted out to poor men, was meted
out to the rich, when Federal Judge
Hollisters of Ohio recently sentenced
twenty nine officials of the Cash Reg
lister trust to sentences in Jail, sus-
tanning the veiw long taken by dem
ocrats that guilt Is personal.
1t has been demonstrated that
jail sentences are the only thing that
trust magnates have any respect for.
They are willing to build up giant
monopolies in violation of the law If
their only punishment. in the remote
event of their prosecution and con-
viction, is to be dissolution, the
details of which the Supreme Court
will allow their attorneys to attend,
to the end that their stocks Will
double in value. Trust magnates care
nothing about fines. They have no OBJ
lection to occasionally paying a $4,000
or $4,000 fine, having made millions
of the necessaries of life.
But trust magnates are afraid of a
cell, and IL they can be convinced
that II they violate the antitrust law
they will go to jail, like the poor go
to jail when they violate 1aw, no
law would be violated and the prob
lem of illegal trusts, solved.
The Sherman law provides for Jail
sentences for trust magnates, just as
other laws provide for Jail sentences
for other kinds Of robbery, but for
twenty years and more the Federal
Courts have not been impressed by
the feet. This is why SO many per-
sons have come to be suspicious of
the courts, and to sincerely believe
that the poor do not receive the
same kind of treatment that is met
ed out to the rich; it explains. too.
the recent remarkable growth in SOC
ialism, and the agitation for the re-
call of judges.
II the Judgment of the Ohio court
is actually carried out. it is obvious
illegal trust magnates to respect the
law, and at the same time mere to
strengthen the waning confidence of
the masses in the Federal courts,
than anything that has happened in
years.

An 0Id-Fashioned Car on Pennsylvania Avenue

in the middle of each door. In this
opening works brass slide. AS you
have it; through that opening in cold
or in rainy weather you would hand
quarter to the driver. and putting
your lips close to the opening, would
say, Tickets" or Change" The driv-
er would open long tin box attached
either to the dash of the car or to his
belt and would pass back to you
through the opening little envelope
on which was printed either Tickets
or "25 Cents" You would tear the
end off the little envelope and. taking
out ticket or nickel, would drop
it in a tall box of wood and glass on
the right-hand side Of the door. The
driver-from the outside of course
would look into the box, and seeing
that you had deposited your fare.
would pull string and the nickel or
the ticket would drop out Of sight
into the base of the box.
You know now that you are on
board one Of the old horse cars. Hav-
ing the ticket slot in the door at both
ends, shows that 1t was of later pc
riod than the bob-tailed car with the
rounded dash in front and the funny
little step behind-the car that was
turned round on a turntable at the
end of the route. Still you know that
that old car has made many trips in

When you enter this car you note
that 1t Is only half as large. or a
fourth as large, as the average run of
the heavy and noisy cars on the main

each side Of this little car, and low
bench or side seat runs along each
side Of the car. This seat is covered
with red carpet. That looks old.fash-
ioned and homelike. But you note
also that group of incandescent
lamps glow in the low ceiling of the
car. that electric push buttons are in
the window frames and that the usual
electric traction devices are on the
platforms.

MODERN PHILOSOPHY

Sing a Song of sunshnne-practice
what you sing.
Boast MT, nor boest of the fact
that you do not boast.
Economy is spending a little for
little of what man needs.
There is no blue Monday to the
man who makes his Sunday white.
1t takes from eight to ten explana-
tions to straishten out one blunder.
No man is so lazy that he hasn't
enough energy to get into Jail.
A mans meanness will leak out be-
fore he knows it, If he is morally
lame he must limp.
When man breaches the doctrine
-ef -"surshine", he must practice the
doctrine of sweat.
Some people have a habit of tell
ing everybody that which they de
clare is nobody's business.
About all en- education does for a
man is to enable him to use what
little common sense he has.
Ia luS utlSiupl " 6St SoiioehiAS
for nothing people have been known
to get nothing for something.
A hobby is something of a play
horse, lacking horse-sense, which is
often true Of the rider, as wei.
When a young man does not cult
vate his brains the devil cultivates
them for him-and raises weeds.
Follow the advice you give to
others, and as much Of the advice
others give to you as they follow
themselves.
Laziness affords a man time to
mediate upon the various things he
would like to have somebody do for
him.
The happiness which has another's
sorrow for a foundation must topple
like the house built upon the sand.
1t is generally the man who boasts
that he descended from a monkey
who continually makes a monkey OF
himself.
Conscience does not say much to
the man so long as the man insists
ON doing all the talking-so that
conscience has no chance.
Some men who claim to be inter
ested in reform movements instead
Of putting their shoulders to the
wheel. try to hide behind the wheel
There are many men who are like
matches-they get bright when the,
scratch their head, and some get 81
bright that they lose their head.
For every fault that you point ou
to your friend tell him Of at leas
three good traits. II you cannot fins
that many good traits for every fauf
It will not do much good to mentio,
The faults.

Our Village Walks and Highways

We understand that Mr.. Battell is
inclined to be quite liberal again in
connection with improvement of the
sidewalks and highways in this village.
That is, assuming that the effort to
have the village borrow $40, 900 or
SIP, 600 for 10 or II years has been given
up as it is understood to be.
Mr. Battell informs US that by care
full measurement it appears that the
81, 600 which he contributed to the
Weybridge street stone road last sea-
son, built g little over half of the dis
lance from the beginning Of that high
way to the height of land at the end
of road.
This ROAD was built under the man.
agement of Mr.. Buttolph, and is under
stood to have been well done. 1t is
entirely of stone with a liberal width
of 16 feet.
AS we understand, Mr.. Battell is
willing to contribute $1,000 towards the
finishing of this road. 1t is not ex-
pected that the remaining part will be
quite as expensive as that which has
been built, and doubtless the sum neces-
sary to finish it will be quickly raised,
the village, if necessary, contributing a
part.
Mr.. Battell is also ready to pay hall
the expense of first class stone side
walk from the Young Ladies DormitorS
on College Hill, to Father Shannon
residence.
1t is also understood that Mr.. Battel
will contribute quite literally to al
equally good stone sidewalk on Sey
mour street.
