In fact they would hardly be doing their duty to their stockholders if they adopted any other course for the law imposes upon them heavy additional outlay which, in the end would have out of the pockets of the stockholders.
 The threat of William G.

Although the which brought about the passage of the Adamson law may seem to have given the brotherhoods su- preme power in the land the fact remains that the constitution has not been repealed.
 Mir. Lee is quoted saying further What the supreme court does with the law is concern of ours" This is mistaken view to take. What the supreme does with the law is a matter direct to the brotherhoods. If the court sustains the law the railroads will recourse except to obey it's provisions.

BETTING ON BASEBALL

That learned New Orleans judge who decided that betting on baseball game gambling for the reason that baseball is a gambling game has given judicial twist to a question that will delight the hearts of the enthusiastic fans who are not averse to backing their judgment with con but just how the decision will be received in legal circles and among those who hold the old fashioned theory that betting is gambling is certain If the character of the thing about which a wager is laid determines the moral and legal of the act the door is open for some finespun theories. Under this ruling what is gambling game? Of course our national sports of poker and horse racing will i'm mediatey present themselves shining examples But there are many fashionable card games these days that are used for gambling purposes and which originated merely social diversions that poker is really discounted.
 To bet on the number of passing street cars or on the chances of successful candidates for office boat race all pass clean under this decision and yet raffe at church fair may be guilty. The only possible explanation of the New Orleans decision is that the judge is fan" and has been the winning side of half dozen recent his neighborhood

The Third campaian Fund.

It is reported good authority that subscription being taken up the appointed state officials and clerks fund fight the gubernatorial con- test through the courts This reminds that in the primary campaign there was a similar subscrip ton to fund in the interest of Governor Hunts candidacy for re-nominaton; and again contributions asked for a fund for the general campaign. It is laying it on the appointees and clerks pretty heavily
 We think all these levies were improper. There ought to be law specifically prohibiting the tributon directly indirectly by any appointive officer or attache an administration to any fund for campaign in which the appointing power may be interested The acceptance of contributions should be regarded felony-a sort of blackmail And it is certainly as improper it is unusual levy upon the attaches for lawsuit fund.
 It is especially improper in this where the democrats had all the machinery in their hands. Democratic boards of supervisors last June long be- fore the nominations were made appointed the cleo tion boards in practically every county in the state. The republicans poweress to commit frauds and irregularities if they had wished to do
 The result shows. too, that the democrats have elected county and legislative officers in nearly every county. In of the counties the democratic ddates were solidly elected In only a few of the counties have the republicans had look in.
 But the republican candidate for governor appears to have been elected by republican but by thousands of democrats voting for him. There is nothing in such open situation requiring a contest involving the expenditure of large fund
 We have heard of something worse, though, than the raising of this fund Foolish friends of the have boasted openly in the street We will win in the end, for have the courts with us." We know that Governor Hunt himself and all good citi- would deprecate talk like this. criminal in itself and insulting the courts. But the friends of Mir Campbell if their antagonists unwilling to abide by the judgment of the people. willing to trust their case the courts in which all good citizens should possess confidence

War and Starvation.

All the nations of Europe are feeling the pinch of acutely than at any time since the great struggle opened The Germans better organized, have been able live within themselves; otherwise Ger many would have been starved and the would be ended. Not only its lands have been culti- vated intensvey, but the rich provinces of Russia, Belgium and France which the Germans have pied have been titled by the labor of prisoners. Many luxuries hitherto regarded necessities of life been cut off from the Germans by the blockade
 On the other hand Great Britain and France, dependent upon their neighbors food supplies feeling the shortage of transportation facilities the effect of the submarine blockade It is not now question of starving Germany but of whipping Ger many of crushing Germany; and what Is to be done must be done quickly

 But we think that have marshalled facts enough, what to be facts to Justify some tentative conclusions, of which the first and important that neither in finance, ndustralism in the question of food, is there any suppose that economical pressure will compel Germany to lay down her arms Germanys position, must all recognize. is not brilliant in of these matters, but do not know whose position is and there is in any wide difference between scarcity and starvation. Two years of war and blockade as strict as we have been able to make it, have shown Germany to be self-contained empire, capable of continuing to finance the campaign to develop many of her iR- dustries and to ration her people a reduced scale without breakdown. We think that the want of gold will be a serious difficulty after time that many German industries heavily hit by the war, and that food is the most serious problem of all. A really bad harvest might upset the delicate balance.
