Ohio is to have the primary system
to express its choice for republican
presidential , candidate. Good-bye,
Foraker; shake, Taft.
And again a jury has disagreed in
the famous Caleb Powers case in
Kentucky. Is Caleb Powers destined
to die of old age liefore he is freed or
convicted. Oh, Procrastination, thy
pame is Court of Justice, in number
less cases.
The Omaha papers speak of the
alarming prevalence of the opium and
cocaine habit in that city. The coun
ty physician says 80 per cent of the
cases coming before him are “dope”
fiends. The city druggists are roast
ed as violating the law in regard to
the sale of these drugs.
The Nebraska railway commission
has locked horns with the Western
Union and Postal telegraph companies,
suit being instituted against these
companies by the commission for
failure to file statements of their busi
ness with the commission as provided
by law. The penalties will range
from $60,000 to 880,000.
The second trial of Thaw, the
murderer of White, came on for trial
in New York City Monday of this
week. It is not likely to be as
salacious as the former trial, thanks
to decency. Tills time Thaw agrees
to a claim of insanity as his plea. If
a man is sane enough to commit
murder, he is surely sane enough to
pay the penalty. The insanity plea
is generally a disgraceful evasion of
justice.
The great trial of labor leaders at
Boise, Idaho, for complicity in the
murder of ex-Governor Steunenberg,
closed last week with the jury decid
ing Pettibone not guilty, and the
prosecution dismissed the case hang
ing over Moyer. Thus ends the last
of the famous labor troubles that has
been in the public eye for so long. It
was one case in which the Pinkertons
failed to convict somebody, innocent
or guilty. Now we will see whether
Orchard will hang, or whether he was
granted immunity by his revolting
story.
Much excitement is obtaining, more
especially on the Pacific Coast, over
the report that Japan is calling back
from this country all its reserve army
men to report in their country at the
earliest possible moment, and that
such order was promulgated by the
Japanese government as soon as the
American fleet started for the Pacific
coast. The order is said to be a
secret so far as any other country is
concerned, and the Japanese in this
country will neither attirm nor deny
the rumor. The report, however, has
gained current that Japan is getting
ready for war with the United States
and no amount of denial gains
credence anywhere. France is sure
Japan is getting ready for war with
the United States and the sailing of
the American battle fleet for the
western coast is taken as the pretext
for Japan’s hostile movement.
One of tlie most remarkable move
ments that ever convulsed'a nation is
the wave of prohibition which is
sweeping over the liquor traffic of
America. Ever since the nation was
born, prohibition has been promul
gated but with only a moderate suc
cess. Although a few states “went
prohibition,” the rest of the country
harbored the evil traffic, and the few
commonwealths that stood adamant
were but inspiration for the jester
and the jokesmith. Today, in nearly
every state, legislative measures are
being taken to suppress the saloon,
and, singular as it may seem, the
flame of the new movement was
started in the South, in which sec
tion, it has always been laughingly
said, the man and the mint julep
were one inseparable. When the old
colonial state of Georgia put a ban on
the traffc, the country stood aghast
and would not believe its eyes. When
Alabama followed suit, and other
communities swung into line, we saw
that King Alcohol was doomed. You
may be suprised to know to what an
extent prohibition has got a foothold
In this country. It is alarming—to
the liquor interests.—Success Maga
zine.
