Rounding Them Up.
The one bit of satisfactory news th

The one but OF satisfactory news that
has come from the shipping board of
late is the announcement that some,
at least, of the rascals who have been
using the board as a base for whole
sale robbery Of American taxpayers
are really in imminent peril of being
brought to book for their crimes. Adj
miral Benson, chairman of the board,
has made the specific announcement
that prosecution of graft" cases will
begin at once in New York, Norfolk
and other cities wherever the crooks
can be corraled. BY graft" cases the
admiral means presumably the brib-
cries, payroll paddings, collusive con-
tracing, robberies in gross and thiev-
cries in detail, of which the pitifully
helpless board has been for so long
the victim.
This of course leaves uncovered the
criminal Indifference, the wanton
squanderings, the sheer imbccilities
through which the board was flched
of the peoples money confded to its
care. That is altogether too vast a
field for exploration. The millions or
billions which have run through that
sieve are hopelcssly gone. Those re-
sponsible are hopelessly beyond the
reach of punishment. But the plain
swindlers, the robbers and petty
thieves, remain. They are in many
cases within reach. And now, it
seems, the shipping board has suffi-
GENTLY emerged from its complaccnt
trance to reach for them.
This is what Colonel Golf, counsel of
the board, promised couple of weeks
ago. His promise would have lost
nothing in convincing quclity had it
been couchcd in somewhat less fam
boyant language. However, let him
produce results in full bencn-si:ow
exhibit of convicted scoundrels, and all
that and a vast deal more would be
forgiven him. With nothing lees than
this will the American people be salts
fed. The country has been sickcred
by the long-drawn revelations of
crimes innumerabl2. 1t wants relief
in the form of a rogu,s march to the
penitentiarics.
A good example has been set in New
York with the Indictment of perjurers,
blackmailers, and shyster lawyer ac-
completes in the building-trades plum
behring's. There should be similar
roundup of the shipping boards crew
of scoundrels.-Harvey's Weekly.

him, he almost fancied, on this the
first Christmas eve he could remember
where peace on earth, good will to men
had a real vita!izing meaning. and
himself a part of it all!
Left an. orphan at eight, for five
years he had been the slave Of miserly
old being. Then Victor Wade, dis
tant relative, and his wife Alice had
taken Ned to their humble little home.
"You have no children of your own
and blessing will come to you for
caring for this poor outcast,' the vii
lage clergyman had told them, and in
deed his words had come true. He
nestled down into their hearts and
gave them an obedience and love.
And Ned as well shared the shadow
that lowered over their lives. Alice
was the only daughter Of the richest
man in Brompton. She had married
Wade against the wishes of Martin
Brill. who had from that hour shut
both of them out of his life.

a chum. "Some day I'm going to let
him know how mean he is to the best
two people who ever lived"
Mr.. and Mrs. Wade had gone to a
