Instead of attempting to
bring the swindlers To JUS
tice and prosecute them be-
fore u jury, as they do n
petty thief, the police made n
monetary proposition out of
the case.
No attempt was made TO
send the trio TO the peniten-
tiary.
Instead, they were advised
to leave Tacoma as quickly
AS possible, and let the city
forfeit their bail money.
Chief of Police LOOMS fixed
bail Immediately after the arrest.
The trio were caught Monday an
hour before the time set for the
alleged Fleeing of j. G. Ander-
son, an Illinois farmer on his way
to the San Francisco exposition,
out of $4,000, by the ancient
poolroom game.
The men wer found in phoEy
poolroom, or overlapping" Of
flee, at 1319h Pacific, where
they had bogus set of telegraph
instruments and race track
blackboard.
Attorney G. T. Peterson. of the
firm of Bates, Peer and Peterson,
Immediately interested himself in
the case. The prisoners, who
gave their names as John Brown
Baseball Wilson,, G. II. Alien
and j. Howard, had a total Of
$610 cash.
Attorney Brings Money.
Attorney Peterson left police
headquarters for a short time
then returned with enough money
to make up the 5000 bail total
fixed by Loomis.
The trial was set for this morn
ing.
On request, however, of Attor-
ney Peterson, who told the police
that his clients had departed hur-
riedly from Tacoma, the cases
we're brought up for trial in po-
| lice court late yesterday, after the
regular session had adjourned.
City Attorney Carnahan, on or
ders from Chief LOOMS. drew VI
double charges against each OF
the trio, On one set of charges
he specified that the men were
disorderly "by operating a bunco-
ing and swindling game in the
city of Tacoma" and in the other
he charged them with vagrancy,
Lawyer Gets $500.
The names were called in the
empty court room. Neither
Brown" Allen" or Howard
answered. Judge Evans declared
the bail Of 500 forfeited in zach
case.
That made 5000 for the city.
Attorney Peterson pocketed the
remaining $500 and departed.
The police say today that they
filed minor charges against the
three swindlers SO that the bail
money would go into city Golfers,
Had they made more serious
charges the bail money, they ex-
plain, would have gone to the
state treasury.
Police officials also asserted
today. that they could not havs
held Anderson---the victim-ia
Tacoma as a witness, pending trial
in the superior court. If they had
filed penitentiary charges.
Deputy City Attorney Frank
Carnahan says, however. 1t woui,

Contentment

Most all our worries
are imaginary, but we
can't. get away from the
fact that the end will
come and some provi-
sion must be made in
advance.
In this enlightened
age every person in the
community should do
the economical thing to-
ward saving some
money for the emer-
gency.

have been simple matter to
have put Anderson under bonds
for his appearance as witness.
The police let three swlnd-
Ter suspects l0Ose--men
whom they are quoted nv
saying were among the worst
bunCO men In the country
for 5000. Men who are
caught in the net OF steal
ing junk from u back yard In
Tacoma are given peniten
tiary sentences.
The limit punishment on q city
ordinance Is 500.
But the police do not explain,
II they were so anxious to en-
rich the city's treasury by the
bail money Of the trio, why they
only filed two charges against the
men, getting $500 Of their 5000
bail, when they could have filed
three charges just as easily and
forfeited the entire 5000.
It's just another case where
LOOMS and his men have been
caught juggling justice.

Once more the Tacoma police department was
caught today Juggling justice
Three men, charged with being the cleverest and
most dangerous swndlers in the west captured here
this week on the charge of operating "wire tap
ping" game and attempting to swindle an Illinois
farmer out of $4,000, have evaded punishment in
of the crudes schemes staged by the police

and yet not have the charter nor re-
-sponsibility of corporations, how in
the name of law can the people OF
Illinois or Chicago find legal means
of enforcing duties these corpora
tons owe the public?
Legally, the Chicago Surface
Lines is nothing. Yet practically it
controls 1000 miles of railroad. It
exacts revenue of $3O,000,000 a year.
1t is the master of $4,000 employees"
The argument ends with the state
ment that if the courts put an o. K.
on the present legal form of the Chi
cago Surface Lines it will be used by
public utility corporations to tie
things up worse than ever in all suits
brought by the people. Judge Brena-
tano refused Hoyne right to file in
formation in quo warranto against
the Chicago Surface Lines. Hoyne
appealed from Brentano's decision in
favor of the car companies.

When Edward W. Box, the able editor
OF the Ladies' Home Journal, first saw

book itself" said Mr.. Box, has been APP
preached by the annotator with reserve

sympathy and knowledge. The pictures
here serve distinct purpose. They en-
rich the text. but they do more; they
intelligently explain. 1t, and many hith-
