DYE ACQUITTED
 IN 2ND TRIAL

Jack Dye, tried yesterday a sec
 ond time on a charge of keeping
 liquor for sale at the Royal hotel,
 last night was acquitted by a jury
 in the superior court.
 Reracing old ground was the job of the criminal division of the Su- Perior court yesterday when it tried for the second time in three days, the misdemeanor case against Jack Dye, charged with keeping liquor for sale. Juan Marquez, jointly ac cuSed with Dye, who turned states evidence at the Saturday hearing, vas again a prominent figure in the case. He divided attention with the hydrometers of Sheriff Davis.
 It took the forenoon to pick new jury that, it was hoped, could agree as to whether the proprietor of the Royal hotel had or had not violated the prohibition law. Marquee was placed on the stand 10 tell about the transactions that were alleged to have led up to the arrest of the pair and later, that of a man named Minor who was said yesterday to be the third partner in the concern.
 (. (. Norton, questioning his one time prospective client on the stand, led the witness up by easy stages 10 Ia question about the reasons he had for suddenly abandoning his defense and turning to the state. Before any one seemed to be aware of what was coming, Mr Norton asked if it were not true that Marquez had demanded .of Jack Dye the $l00 to be paid for la lawyer, and on being refused this sum, said he would go to the au- thorities with his story. The prose cution intcrjectcd hot objection to which the defense answered that it was permissible to show a motive in the case of man who had al lied himself with the other side. The court permitted the question and Marquez' answer was caught only by the reported. Everybody wanted to know what it was and she quoted: Yes"
 The case went to the jury with expressions of a strong desire on every side including the upper side of the court railing, that the verdict be returned before night had set in.

COAL IN SMALL LOTS.

The Herald hopes sincerely thai local dealers will not refuse to sell coal in small quantities. It is plain that the only sufferers from this course would be the persons who have not the cash to pay for large quan- tity at a time. It is not believed pos sible that this city's dealers generally will take this stand.
 No matter how unreasonable the rules laid down by law appear to a dealer, the man of moderate means is not to blame for those regulations. He should not be punished for a situation for which he Is not to blame, A man who has the money with which to buy a quarter of ton of coal may be perfectly willing to waive his rights under the law in order to get his coal. He may have illness at his home. He may be willing to go to any sacrifice to get coal that would keep Lu0 biCk Ouc "niAi' AAN' .-N such as he, would be the only suffer- CTS If this rule of selling in one-ton lots only were to prevail.
 It is in times such as these that the supposedly superior business ability of the heads of great busi- nesses should come to the rescue. They know their business. They can not be expected to sell coal, for in stance, at loss. But they can be expected to use every bit of their in genuity and knowledge to aid in situation that is distressing and some times tragic.
 The Herald does not believe that the intention is general among coal dealers to punish the man of mod crate means and the poor man, the sick, the children, for something for which they are not to blame at a time when life is, very, very hard for all of them. "
 The Herald asks earnestly that the dealers generally will continue to sell coal in small lots when necessary. The Herald believes they will.

POLAND'S MISFORTUNE.

The killing of Gabriel Narutowiez, first President of the Polish Republic, terrible as 1t is, loses some of the significance it would otherwise hold when 1t appears that the slayer was a man who has long been considered irrational by those with whom he had associated. It is possible. but not probable, that the act represented the wishes of a considerable portion of Poland's people. It is far more likely that the act was an individual act, resulting from distorted imaginings of diseased mind.
 That many differing sentiments move the hearts of the people of Poland at this time will not be doubted. The land is one where men of blood other than pure Polish are numerous There have been disor- ders attendant upon the change in the form of government, but these disor- ders cannot be compared to the great revolutions that have taken place in other countries under similar circum- stances. The question remains to be answered whether or not the Nation- alists, of that country will adopt the act as their own and allow it to be the signal for further tragedies. The next few days or weeks will be Poland's most trying time. There is but one hope in this country where Poland's future is a matter of keen interest. That hope is that the act will be repudiated by opponents of the democratic idea, if not in words, at least in attitude, to the end that the democratic form of government, conceived in such hope, will be allowed peacefully to prevail.
