How The Roman Catholics Saved
the Murderer of a Little
Protestant Boy.
Washington, July is, 1913.

WdSnIHStOH, jury 10, 1915.
It ONY MILANO, dago, murdered little white
/ newsboy. The boy was Protestant Tony
is an Italian Roman Catholic. After proper ndiet-
ment. Tony was tried by a Jury and convicted.
He was sentenced to death for his awful murder
OF Harry Elton. The Catholic priests got busy.
They opeLly asserted among their followers that
they would save Tony's life. The Knights of
Columbus took the matter up. Through Tumulty
the hand Of the executioner stayed, and again
stayed. Finally couple of expert alienists,
Catholics pretended to know all about mental
diseases were asked whether Tony insane
They said Tony was insane. Everybody here
knows Tony is sane. He was perfectly sane at the
time of the trial, and the question of his sanity
was never mentioned He would have never been
found insane by jury. This 10 an outrage, a
religious outrage. It's outrageousness is shown
by what Tony said when told his death sentence
had been commuted to life imprisonment. Accord
Ing to the Washington Evening Star of July 5th,
he disappointed over life imprisonment
Another headline reads: "Boy's slayer expected a
term of years" Still another is as follows:
Hopes some day to enjoy his freedom Accord
ing to the Stars account '"MTTano showed no evil
dence of surprise when told of the Presidents
action In saving him from the gallows He had
fully expected the President would save his life.
Had there been no serious thought of aiding him,
he stated the second respite would not have been
granted" Pretty sound intricate reasoning for
a "craZy1 man. Thus does the Catholic church
disclose it's power even in staying the will of the
people and the hand of Justice where Protestant
life has been taken.
The facts III the above case made it an afro
eiOus murder. There was no extenuating cir
cumStance
Some mischievous lads, had been teasing
Milano, the keeper of a shop in Baltimore
When little Harry Elton went into the shop,
the Italian Milano believed that Harry was
one of the boyish teasers.
He set upon the boy, and murdered him
brutally in the shop.
The feeling against M1lano was so strong
that he came near being lynched.
The jury saw nothing in the case except
cold -blooded murder, of an unarned molten
sive little news-boy who made his living sell
ing papers on the street, supporting aas orphan
sister, as we'll as himself by his honest labor.
But the Romanists have tremendous pull
at the White House, through Joseph Patrick
Tumulty, the Jesuit, the Knight Of Columbus,
the Papal spy
The little Protestant hoy lies in a bloody
grave; has orphan sister may be dricen to
earn her bread ia shame, and MiIano escapes
the penalty which the zaus of God and of
man declare he should have paid

EDITORIAL NOTES
ny J. I'd. WATSON

Charles S. Mellen, of the New 7 ork. New
Haven & Hartford Railroad, to resign as the
head of that road and its subsidiaries.
The odium heaped upon the management
by the investigation following the Stamford
wreck, which the officials of the New Haven
tried to place upon the unfortunate engineer,
has been more than the Rockefeller Morgan
interests even could stand, and Me1len, their
tool In bringing about these conditions, was
let go when the Board of Directors held
meeting last week.
Under Mr.. Mellen the policy of creating
transportation monopoly in New England
was carried to a successful end-control of
the Boston & Maine railroad-control of troll
ley lines throughout New England control
Of steamship lines with wharves, etc. was
obtained until the N. Y. n. III. & Hartford
has New England completely at it's mercy.
Under Mr.. Mellen the New York, New
Haven & Hartford bought these competing
transportation properties at an exorbitant
pr1ce-a price ON which, run III legitimate
way they could never pay dividend.
The New York, New Haven & Hartford
is naturally one of the biggest earning rail
roads in the United States, and it was the big
earnings of the road that Mellen converted
into the ownership of the other New England
transportation companies-it was the earn
ings which should have been spent partly on
the upkeep of the New Haven that he spent
LII acquiring monopoly that led to the dis
astrous wrecks on the New Haven under his
management.
But after all, does the firing of Mellen by
the New Haven remedy the evils that existed
under Mellen?
1t was not Mellen who inaugurated the sys-
tenn under which he ran the New Haven't
was not MelIen who conceived the idea of
converting the transportation companies of
New England into a huge monopoly
The system under which Mellen ran his
road was the system under which he was
forced to run it by the Morgan Rockefeller
crowd.
Mellen was their tool at SO much per
annum, and If Mellen had refused to do as
directed, he would have been fired. Just as
any MINOR employee would be fired for dis
obeying orders
In way Mellen was Just as much victim
of the Morgan Rockefeller system as was the
unfortunate engineer who pulled the i'll fated
express at Stamford.
When the prosecutions growing out of the
Stamford wreck begin, the Morgan Rookie
Teller crowd deserve to be among those prose-
cuted.
Those at the head are most responsible and
are the ones who deserve the severest punish
ment
Since Mr.. Bryan has refused to give up
lecturing for private gain while holding the
highest Cabinet position, it is interesting to
notice how the country is taking Mr.. Bryan's
action.
The newspapers are generally pretty good
criterion to go by, so take a glance at the
following.

into cheese cloth and drain. Measure

sugar. Set the sugar in the stove

the juice on to boil with the fresh. ten
der leaves from bunch Of mint. Cook
20 minutes at a boil; strain out the

DAY OF THE DOUBLE SKIRT
Vogue That Has Much to Recommend
1t Seems to Be Decidedly
on the Increase.

The vogue of the double skirt seems
TO be increasing. The under one. gen

and drawn in around the ankles. Over
this a contrasting material is draped
or pleated. In the latter case it
might pass for an elongated tunic.
especially as it is often of taffeta.
The fancy for these double skirts
finds better medium of expression
In the sheer summer materials
Through the upper one, which is
transparent. one sees the colored gar
niture of the under one and the effect
Is very soft and pretty.
Ribbons are used for this trimming
or the foundation skirt, just as they
are employed under transparent bod
ices. This use Of ribbons under sheer
waists was introduced about a year
ago. but did not find it's way into the
fashions for the multitude until this
spring. In spite OF the fact that 1t has
now reached the bargain counter
stage IL is still feature of many ex-
qAisite toilets.
