Why?

(Boston Globe)
During the past week the
oil scandal cases twice registered
progress. In the first instance the
Federal Grand Jury in Washington,
d. c., re-indicted Fall, Doheny and
Sinclair on charges of criminal con-
spiracy. This was an impaired VIC
tory. however, for the new indict-
ments fail to include the charges of
bribery included in the criminal in
dictments first returned and subse-
quently quashed. The bribery charg-
es were not dropped because they
were proven untrue. Not at all.
They were dropped from the Sec
ond indictment because three years
have elapsed since the alleged act.
Under the law, unless prosecution
for such an act begins within three
years after the act it cannot begin
at all. So here was a partial VIC
tory for the parties to the alleged
bribery. On second technicality of
law, and entirely apart from the
merits of the case, they have escaped
trial.
Why three years were permitted to

were great bargain hunters? A stat

by telling us 10 per cent of Uncle

"where Are the pure Of Heart"

"Whsre Are the Pure Of Heart"
"Where are the pure of heart,
The givers of gladness,
The eyes that misted with pity,
The eyes that shone with truth.
The hands whose touch was life,
The lips that withheld not kisses,
And spoke no evil;
The lovers, the singers, the dreamers.
Who knew the secrets of sacred gard
ems,
And told them in words that die not?
They were as white-winged eagles
Rising from the sea to heaven,
Even as waves that turn to eagles,
And fade into the light of the sky,
All, all are vanished into the Valley
of Stiffness
Beyond the Hill'

CHAPMAN'S FATE

STATE, Is RULING

HARTFORD, Conn.,, Nov. 80. -
The United States ha sno further
interest in Gerald Chapman as he is
no longer a federal prisoner but is
now within the jurisdiction of the
state of Connecticut, Assistant Unit
ed States Attorney Cohen told Fed
eral Judge Thomas today when the
hearing on the "prince of bandits -
application for a writ of habeas
corpus, opened in Wethersfield state
prison here.
When the fight to save Chapman
from the gallows opened, Judge
Thomas assembled a full federal
court to hear the bandit S petition.
If granted, the petition would re-
turn Chapman TO Atlanta to serve
out his long federal sentence for
the New York mail robbery before
the state could hang him for the
murder of Policeman Skelly in New
Britain, as ordered by the state
courts.

QUEENLY ECONOMY

i.:. The late Queen alexandra "Englands Fairy
Queen as the poetical writers call her. is said to
have been famous for her thrift as.ats .~,H
This seems an Odd quality for royalty. Kings and
queens popuary supposed be lavish with their
money-or subjects money. Largess was the old
rule, If may believe the fairy tales and romances
The king always tossing purse of gola, and the
queen always giving away rich jewels.
But Alexandra, the DANISH beauty who won the
heart Of Edward VII when he dashing young
prince, of family that was poor as 1t was
noble. Economy necessity IN her own home en-
joined by her princess mother and practlsed by her
until it became second nature.
1t may be due somewhat to her influence that the
present British royal family practises rather drastic
economy, of which King George has given almost
much evidence as President Coolidge
It's wise thing, Thrift behooves all kings
and queens of this democratic age for they never know
when they'll be out of job.
