THAW WINS FIRST VICTORY
OVER OLD ENEMY, JEROME
Sherbrooke, Que, Aug. 27.-Harry
K. Thaw won his first victory over
William Travers Jerome when Judge
GIobensky refused to hear Jerome in
opposition to Thaw's application for
discOntinuance of his application for
a writ of habeas corpus.
That it is the Thaw millions
against the State of New York there
isn't any room for doubt. A rUmOr
has been circulated that Thaw is en-
plOying press agents to turn public
sentiment in his favor, and it is GER
tain that some of the newspapers
that were most rabid in their denun-
citation Of his escape and the means
by which he obtained it a few weeks
ago are today clamOring that he be
given fair play.
In the little granite courthouse,
half way between the jail and the
City's outlet, one Of the most remark
able demonstrations ever witnessed
in court of justice in Canada took
place when Judge Globensky ruled
against the New York lawyers and
stated there would be no entry of
their objections made.
A young girl, magnifcently garb-
ed in black, shouted in a shril So
pranO voice:
''Hurrah for Canada; it has equal
justice for all"
The effect was electrical. From
every section Of the room came a
roar of sound that swept out on the
street and was caught up and carried
back by the crowd there which had
been unable to get into the court
room. The cheering continued for
five minutes while Judge Globensky
made no effort to check it.
Thaw and his lawyers are fighting
for delay. Jerome's boast that Yer

One Hundred Years of Railroads

This year marks the centen-
nial of the steam locomotive.
From curious, crude mechan-
ism, drawing a few tons of coal
at rate of five miles au hour,
the steam locomotive has push
ed its way into every continent.
and TO-DAY trains de luxe are tiy-
ing over superb tracks, across
wonderful bridges and through
mountains, in lands which were
unknown OF uncivllized 100 years
ago. The locomotive has made
possible our great cities and sea
ports; 1t has created states out
of vast, vacant territories. With
out it the products of the world
would practically remain where
they grew, and only a small frac-
ton of what is raised would ever
be grown. The greatest work
ing instrument of Industry in
times of peace, yet equally es-
sential to modern warfare. It is
the shuttle which weaves the fab
ric of a nation, by reason of easy
| and constant intercommunica.

The Newspaper Job.

Many people believe that a
newspaper falls together with
out work or concerted action or
plan Rev. Mcleod, a Presby-
terian minister ut Pasadena, was
of that opinion, and asked to be
allowed to edit an edition of the
Pasadena Star. The editor
gladly accepted the opportunity
to go fishing, and the minister
took up the duties of the news
paper office. This is how he felt
when he found himself at the
end of the task, which 1t must
be said, he had done quite cred
itahly.
My time is almost up as l pen
this last line: my hand is almost
paralysed: my brain is befud-
died and | am free TO confess
that | am right glad to vacate the
holy spot. Such a tumble of
potpourri; it strikes me as the
effort to bring order out of chaos,
and to do it lightning quick.
II am reminded of the memor-
able words, The earth was with
out form and void. and darkness
was upon the face of the waters.
Never shall criticise the news
paper men more. l shall pray
for them. They have my hearts

ever. They are the hardest

The Temper Of Republicans.

Republicans Of all kinds be
lieve in fair protective tariff
They are all protectionists
They believe in the regulation OF
all established trusts and the
abolition vi such trusts as i'm
pose upon the people. They be-
lieve in the reasonable control of
wealth and a fair division OF the
products of labor and capital.
They believe in sound curren-
cy. They believe in the absolute
protection of the lives and pro-
perty of Americans i'll foreign
countries. They believe in the
glory Of the flag and the invio a.
bility of the constitution They
believe in all these things, yet a
very small number of them will
stand for unfair methods in par
ty procedure or the use of the
party by political bosses. The
party cannot be unified without
being sanctified to the will and
the use of the people. Those
who want to lead Republicans
had best reckon with their de
votion to party honor and their
loyalty to what is right in party
management and in civil govern

|. NJ. Trainman Gets Ears
Boxed by Irate Husband.

There was something doing OF
the Iron Mountain passenger
train one day last week, jus,
before the train pulled i..,o Mar
quanu, which resulted in an i'm
pudent auditor on the train get.
ting his ears boxed by an irate
passenger. We We're unable to
get all the particulars, but from
what we could learn it seems the
train auditor had been particu-
larly offensive to the passengers,
the train being so crowded that
passengers had to st" I'd in the
allies. A young man named Os-
car Hull, town marshal of Allen
vile, so the story goes, claimed
that the auditor had made some
offensive remark to his (Hull's)
wife, who was also a passenger
on the train, and in this he was
sustained by other passengers.
Hull vert after the auditor and
boxed his ears soundly. The lat
ter made no resistance, and those
who saw the incident say the
auditor got about what he de-
served. No report was made of
the affair at Bismarck, where we
learned of the occurrance from
a railroad man who was on the
train. The Iron Mountain has
some mighty polite and accom-
modating auditors, who will do
anything reasonable for the COM
fort and convenience of the pas
sengers, and then it has others
who appear to be laboring under
the belief that their sole busi-
ness is to look surly and be I'M
civil to the passengers. .-Freder-

Congress will be called upon to

that the liquor traffic opposes
