GRAFT THAT IS REASONABLE

1t is officially stated at Washing
ton that no defective steel was
used in the construction of the
great canal locks at Panama. The
reason why a monumental work es-
capped this peril lies in the fact that
defective beams and plates evident
ly designed for purposes of fraud
were detected by competent in
spectors and rejected.
This much to the discredit of
the. celebrated "blowhole" steel in
dustry of Pittsburg seems to be es-
tablished. Somebody in that long
protected enterprise appears to,
have been willing to make money.
not only at the expense of the per-
son and property using the canal
but, in case of the emergency of
war, at the risk of national honor
and safety. Acting upon this infor-
nation, a federal grand jury at
Pittsburg recommends the indict-
ment of various persons for an at
tempt to defraud the United
States.
Pr~esentnlents do not always lead
to indictments and Indictments do
not convict anybody, but this is a
scandal that ought not to be left to
the routine Of a Pennsylvania court.
If it be conceivable that graft
which amounts to treason is posi-
BILE among our businessmen, there
must he penalties that will have
some relation to the crime.
Steel deprived of congressional
favor has been severely critical of
the tariff laws enacted by the peo-
pie of the United States. If it
can be proved that persons operat-
ing in its interest have undertaken
to disgrace as well as, to plumber
a nation which has too long paid
tribute to it., their punishment
should carry the SAVIOR of retribu-
tion if not of vengeance.-New

NEW SONG CALLED
cupid IN A COLE

"Cupid in Cole'' Is the title of a
song of popular composition, presented
to the Cole Motor Car company of In.
dianapolis, by Mrs. Charles A. Yeager
Of Los Angeles. This ardent feminine
motorist Of southern California probably
never suspected she was so near to the
truth when she wrote the clever song.
The title, especially, is appropriate at
this time.
Cupid has found time to elbow his
way into the ranks Of the Hoosier motor
car builders and to make his presence
felt with considerable force. In fact,
review Of the past few weeks makes
1t look like he was on rampage.
John A. Murphy, assistant secretary,
started the riot. Then Ed T. Harris,
field sales manager, looked longingly
at the state Of married bliss. He slip,

days word came that he had Joined
the ranks of the married men. Not
content with thus disrupting the sales
