A Ridiculous Sentence.

An unusually light sentence has been
handed down in Richmond. Va. in the
case of the country club manager wa
was convicted of killing his paramount
III love triangle. The jury returned
a verdict Of voluntary manslaughter
and the defendant was given one yea.
in the penitentiary. The defenst
claimed that the woman shot herself
because her lover was about to return
TO his wife. while the prosecution
charged that the defendant shot her
in a jealous rage. 1t was freely adj
mitted by the defense that the defend
ant was in the woman's apartment at
the time Of the shooting and that the
woman died from wounds made by the
defendants pistol. How, then, can the
jury find a man guilty with a sentence
of such ridiculously short duration?
He was either guilty or not guilty. and
there Is no halfway point about 1t. II
not guilty he should have been freed
but II guilty he should have received
the maximum sentence for murder The
ease with which women get of after
killings has become a national disgrace
and it is not too encouraging for the
welfare Of the country to note that
man can do away with a woman and
receive a sentence that for good be-
havior can be reduced to eight months
in the penitentiary.

Sinclair's Scandalous Stable.

There are two ways of looking al the
action of the Maryland State Racing
Commission which has Just barred the
horses of the RancocaS Stable. owned
py Harry P Sinclair, from racing or
the tracks in that State because of
the Identification Of Sinclair's name
with the oil scandals. One is that the
commission has gone beyond its prov
ince in branding as unfit for participa-
ton in sport a man who has so ia.
as is known scrupuiously observed the
rules of the game and has never been
involved in scandals connected With
the turf. The other is that the racing
Of Sinciair's horses however the racing
rules are respected. in itself constitutes
a scandal while the owners name is
identified with transactions and pro-
ceedinss that give grievous shock to
the moral sensibihties Of the country.
In other words, the racing commits
Sion's action is right or wrong. accord
ing to the point of view. and there Is
no way of reconciling the two con-
cepts of sporting and political morals.
The question has been raised whether
the Maryland commission has not in
vited a suit for damages from the oil
magnate by barring his horses from the
tracks Of the State on grounds wholly
distinct from racing rules and condi-
tions Sinclair's investment in the
Rancocas Stable is conservatively esti-
mated at S2000,0o0 He is not in the
racing game for profit, He does NOT
need to be. He has the services OF one
Of the most highly respected and CON-
petent trainers in the country. II his
horses are barred from the tracks his
trainer is barred so long as he remains
in Sinclair's employ. A nice point of
law may be involved in this procedure.
1t is related that the Maryland COM
mission recently barred two other own
ers from the State tracks. one because
he was bootlegging in the stalls and
another because OF his financial status.
In both of these cases there would seem
to be some specific ground for action.
more definitely than In the Sinclair
case. BY citing financial status" the
commission impliedly meant TO express
doubt as to the good faith of the owner
in the racing Of his horses as purely
sporting enterprise.
With Senator Borah passing the hat
to collect small contributions to repay
the $685. to Sinclair, given to Re-
publican campaign funds. in order to
purge the party Of the taking Of tainted
money. and with the Maryland State
Racing Commission putting the Ran
cocas Stable under the ban as a
scandalous establishment, the moral re-
action against Sinclair may be regarded
as in full swing. But it may be sug-
gested that there is such thing as
going too far in squeamishneSs. Some
times sympathy is aroused for even the
object of a general public vilifcstion.

Surveyor Hazen's Sixth Term.

Recognition OF faithful service Is at

Of four years Mr.. Hazen became sur
yeyor on the 9th Of July, 1908, and has
continued in that once ever since. Upon
the completion OF the new term, to
which he has just been appointed, he
will have served nearly a quarter Of a
century. In all the time Of his incum-
bency there has never been any ques-
ton OF his capacity. his industry or
his loyal devotion to the best interests
Of the municipal government. He has
labored diligently with an inadequate
force at a time Of remarkable growth
In the District. During these past
twenty years there has been an excep-
tional expansion at the Capital. 1t may
be said that these two decades have
been the most active in point Of public
and private works In the history OF the
District. Throughout this period the
surveyors Office has maintained a high
standard Of promptness and skill in ac-
curate measurements as streets have
been extended, parks have been estab-
lished. new areas have been opened for
development and improvement. Sur
yeyor Hazen has become q veritable

the history OF the Capital area. He

THIS AND THAT
BY CHARLES Z. TRACEWELL.

The crowded elevator slid TO a stop,
the operator opened the door. and an
other small sized mob tried to wedge
itself In.
A tall. severe faced woman, standing
with her back pressed to the car, spoke
up in a decisive manner.
Don't pack any more In here" she
commanded. I'VE can scarcely breathe
now"
The elevator operator smiled, in an
embarrassed fashion, then Obligingly
shut the door
Every one else in the packed car
smiled. too-every one, that is, except
the white-haired elderly lady.
She continued to look very much
outraged. Not line in her face
relaxed
It was not until the elevator got to
the first floor, and was almost emptied,
that the old lady suddenly underwent
a transformation.
A pleasant smile on her lips, she
spoke to the operator.
Thank you very much!" she said.
Why shouldn't one say what he
thinks?
No doubt there are too many timid
souls In the world for its own good
One should not 60 around bawling
people out. as the phrase has 1t. for
every little thing that one does not
like. but perhaps most Of us should
express our honest convictions aloud
more than We commonly do.
The last 10 years have marked a
struggle between the civil politeneSs of
the old school and the somewhat
impudent manners--or lack OF them
Of the new.
Courtesy is something entirely diff
ferent from mere expression OF ideas.
OF course. The elderly woman in the
elevator said aloud what the others
thought but did not say. What Is more
to the point she most Courteously
thanked the operator. Her smile when
she did so was winning In amazing
contrast to her former severe demeanor.
An exponent Of the new school OF
public manners might "bawl out" an
elevator girl. but he would never thank
her as the old lady did. There Is just
that much difference.
There are many situations which
arise in daily life which would be
helped by fair exchange of ideas.
Those who stand halfway between
the old ideas of conduct and the new
find themselves in most difficult posi-
tion. indeed.
They are held back by their ideas OF
politeness. in general, when what they
need is to "cut loose" with just what
they honestly think.
II the other becomes offended. then
let him so injure himself. There Is
altogether too much respect paid to
the sense OF injured dignity.
Folks that have to be handled with
gloves ought TO be treated roughly.
1t would be good for them.
An honest neighbor who does not
like something in his neighborhood
owes 1t to himself TO complain loud
and strenuously.
II the other refuses TO make any
attempt TO see the matter from the
others viewpoint. then so much the
worse for him-or her.
This is game that works both ways.
