WASHINGTON, Nov, Alt Is so

TO make returns or the making OF
fraudulent returns win be punished
by a fine Of not less than $4,000 or
Imprisonment for one year or both,
in the discretion Of the court,
OF course. the government is go.
ing to rely somewhat upon the hon.
cety OF the individual, but there viii
be other ways OF finding out If such
returns are in proper shape, For in
stance a corps OF S3i deputy collect.
ois besides special agents and IA.
cpeeiors, win be selected to enforce
the provisions Of the law. The iepu.
iy collectors Of internal revenue and

THE SUPREME COURT
What the Court Has Done During the
Past Twelve Months-Good
Record

That the supreme court judges Of
West Virginia are more than busy is
plainly evidenced by the record made
during the past year, ending Septem-
Der 80
Out of 1855 days the Judges have
been in session 25S and during those
25S days they have accomplished
more work than ever known in the
history OF the court. During the
same time in 1912 the judges we're
in session 212 days.
Another record for the present
court is shown in the number Of suits
refused. This year there were156
refused as compared to III in 1912.
The number of suits docketed We're
211 this year and 266 in 1912.
Number of suits decided, 234 as
compared with I'll last year.
Number of SUITS dismissed, %.
while last year we're &c.
Suits pending September 30, 1913,
numbered 400 and at the end of the
fiscal year in 1912 there were 500
suits on the docket.

Hydraulic rams are not only adap

for delivering large quantities of wa

possible expense musi be incurred for
pumping water for any Of these pur.
poses. there is naturally great de
mand for rams, This applies partIcu'
