"Nowadays," Demarest shot out, we
don't call them courts of justice; we
call them courts of law"
"-AnyWay," Glider declared, becoming
genial again, its out of our hands.
There's nothing we can do now"
why, rs to that" the lawyer re
piled, with Il hint of hesitation. Il am
not SO sure. You see, the fact Of the
matter is that, though l helped to
prosecute the case, | am not a little
bit proud of the verdict. ! am not sure
that Mary Turner is guilty-far from
it, in fact, Anyhow, the girl wants to
see you, and | wish to urge you to
grant her an interview"
whats the uSeE' Glider stormed.
Il can't have her crying all uver the
office and begging for mercy" he pro-
tested truculently. But a note of fear
lay under the petulance.
DemareSt's answer was given with
assurance.
you are mistaken about that. The
girl doesn't beg for mercy. In fact,
that's the whole point of the matter.

may seem in Il court of law-and moth
ing else. The truth is. she's Il very
unusual girl, a long way beyond the
ordinary Salesgirl. both in brains and
in education"
The less reason. then. for her being
n thief" Glider grumbled in his heav-
lest voice.
And perhaps the less reason for be
lieving her to be "A thief" the lawyer
retorted suavely. He paused for a
moment, then went on. There was a
tone of sincere determination in his
voice. Just before the judge. imposed
sentence he asked her if she had any
thing to say. You know, it's lust a
usual form-a thing that rarely means
much Of anything. But his case was
different. let me tell YOU. She sur
prised us all by answering Mt once that
she had, It's really a pity. Glider. that

to the magnate, he spoke with a trace
OF anxiety. There were always the re-
porters looking for space to FIJI with
foolish vaporings.
Did she say anything against me or
the store"
Not a word the lawyer replied
gravely. She merely told Us how her
father died when she was sixteen years
old. She was compelled after that to
earn her own living. Then she told
how she had worked for you for FIVE
years steadily without there ever he
ing a single thing against her. She
said. too. that she had never sect the
things found in her locker. And she
said more than that. She asked the

The two went forward very slowly,

MONEY THAT VANISHED.

In the light of such report as the In
terstate Commerce Commission has lust
made to the Senate on the management
OF the New Haven Railroad during the last
ten years, 1t is not difficult to understand
the prejudice and distrust that exist in
many minds with regard to railroad and
other corporations, and the disposition
among the thOughtless and radical to con-
slider all big business combinations as des-
titute OF common morality and ordinary
honesty. Here is railroad system with
which some of the most prominent and
reputedly respectable" financiers of the
East have been connected, which has been
deliberately plundered and systematically
looted for decade by its management,
and reduced from the height of prosperity
TO the verge of bankruptcy. They have
picked the pockets of the New Haven stock
holders Of between 100000. 900 and $780,
100000.
The New York Herald makes the follow
ing editorial comment upon the commits
sion's report:
THE New Haven was looted under the
personal auspices of men who were sup
posed to represent the lOftiest financial
integrity of Wall street II was looted
under the auspices of men who posed as
the great captains Of American finance.
Yet under the direction of Morgan and
Rockefeller the New Haven shared practi-
cally the fate of the Erie under Fisk and
Could In its madness for monopoly the
so-called integrity Of Wall street produced
substantially the same results as the most
cunning rascality Of Wall street produced
a generation ago.
wall street for months has been scream
ing against government by investigation.
Is Wall street prepared to stand by the
record in the New Haven case and to
maintain that it is essential to the prosperity
OF the American people that such iniquity |
must not be expected. much less punished
wall street for months has been de-
nOuncing the Administrati MS proposals |
for Government supervision Cyer the secu-
rites Of railroads as political control of |

anything more scandalOus to its discredit
than the Morgan Rockefeller control of the
New Haven't Would it be possible even in
Tammany Hall to find more devious trail
OF crOokedness and corruption than that
which the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion has been following from the Offices of
the New Haven't
There can be no Constitution of Peace
with men who practice grand larceny and
call II finance. There can be no Constitu-
ton OF Peace with men who practice bur
elary and call il business.
THE trouble with this country today is
not in the policies of the Administration.
1t is in the practices of men of wealth,
education and understanding who hesitate
at nothing to gain power and profit. Pros
perity is excellent in itself, but there are
better things than prosperity. Honesty is
better. Justice is better. Liberty is better
There could be neither honesty nor justice
nor liberty in country that submitted to
the dictation Of such corrupt plutocrAcy
as that which has defied law, debauched
government, polluted public opinion, de-
the weak and helpless and plum
dered great property in conspiracy to
enthrone monopoly"

WASTED LNFORMA TON.

II seems a shame that the vast store
houses Of information of the Government
are not drawn upon more often by the
citizens. There is hardly an aspect Of
farming which has not been studied by
the experts Of the Agricultural Depart
ment; and their conclusions are published
in set of Bulletins, which can be had
free by telling the Congressman what is
wanted to be learned. Congressman Lewis
recently offered to send selection of these
bulletins on application, mailing every
farmer list to pick from. Many farmers
In Western Maryland have bought these
bulletins as issued, and from studying
them have learned new ways of making
profits. Now that they can be had for the
asking, we ought to see Western Maryland
farming pay better
