Today] Rich Man Kills Poor Man. From Thunder to Squeak. Welcome Ethiopian Jk i Queen. _ .1 ^By ARTHUR BRISBANE J For months past New York state has asked the question, “Can a rich man kill a poor man and g/et away with it?” The answer, “yes,” was given yesterday by a jury. Walter S. Ward, son of an enormously rich man, was acquitted for the con fessed killing of a penniless former sailor, Clarence M. Peters, and set free. Respect for our jury system compels us all to call the verdict justified. But it causes thought. The accused man confessed the killing. He did not go on the stand, or offer any defense, pro duce a single witness. Except a speech hy his lawyer, who said Ward killed, in self-defense, a man attempting to blackmail him, he declined to give further informa tion on the ground that it would disgrace his family. AND THE JURY ACQUITTED HIM. —*— Reverse the case. Suppose the penniless sailor had murdered the rich man, and said, “I killed him in self-defense. He was acting ing a way that would have dis graced my family. I decline to give any details. I desire to pro tect my family name. That’s my story.” Would the sailor have been acquitted? How far the Astor fortune sheds us beams. An English Astor is chief owner of the London Times. He will never allow control to be sold. The Times will be put under the control of great Englishmen such as, for instance, the lord chancellor, the director of Edin burgh university. The Times must keep thundering through the ages. That is the foolish planning. There must be electric power back of thunder. There must be personality back of a real news paper. The son of Mr. Astor’s stable boy may produce a news paper that will make all the thun dering of the supermanaged Lon don Times sound like a mouse's pitiful squeak. Adolph Ochs, who owns the New York Times, asked this writer, “How can I make the Times a permanent institution?” The an swer to that question was, “Mr. Ochs, live forever.” When the man goes out in a newspaper it is the same as when the light goes out in a lantern. Unless another man can start the light—no newspaper, no lantern. Ethiopia enters the league of nations, Abyssinia having con vinced the league that it will give up slavery. It won’t give it up, of course, although Prince Ded jasematch Nadeou will doubtless do his best, and so will his august ruler, Her Majesty Oui-Zero Zeoditu. Many Americans will be satis fied NOT to have the Empress Oifi-Zero voting on an equality with the United States—each one vote—in deciding questions af fecting the United States. That would happen if this nation were foolish enough to be in the league. We admire and revere Oui-Zero, but we’d rather run along in the old way, without help. Governor Walton of Oklahoma fighting the Ku Klux Klan, does not want to injure the state by ex aggerating the seriousness of the situation. He says the thing is “political, not exactly racial or religious.” And he adds: “I doubt if there has been a Catholic flogged. Only a few Jews are among the klan victims in the state.” That “only a few Jews,” sounds more like Torquemada than like a modern governor. Dr. W. J. Mayo, great surgeon, says—please remember it: “More than 71 per cent of patients operated on for cancer get well when operation is not delayed too long.” After the cancer Spreads from the “primary focus” the situation is difficult and dangerous. And remember this, especially: No medicine will cure cancer. Only quacks or the very ignorant will recommend it. At 7 o’clock last night Ger many was still quiet, with Dr. Gessler, minister of defense, in charge of everything as military dictator. No outbreak so far. None will come unless German workmen want it. They are all trained soldiers. Communists or others would need a powerful force to deal with a trained army of several millions that Gessler could call out on short notice. How long will the workmen, trained by the social democratic party in thinking, trained by the kaiser as t soldiers, hold out on 9 cents a day? Woodbury, Conn., possesses a mule that chews tobacco. But remember this and credit the mule. It can’t read. When it chews tob acco it swallows the juice, and the tobacco. Mules have never been told what nicotine does to their insides. You can’t ask too much of men. Unlike mules, they must do some thing foolish, and tobacco smoking or chewing is the least harmful thing they can do, the safest sub stitute for the painful process of thinking.

Union Pa cific trainmen and employes last night demanded the opening of the gates nt the big Fullerton power dam to give the water a free sweep down stream, and thus avoid washing out the tracks. “Shell creek waters are rising and the Union Pacific is making special preparaons to met the emergency where he creek crosses the right-of way near Schuyler. “Trunk lines of the Northwestern Bell Telephone company are badly de moralized.

The week saw the season’s unprec edented display of jeyels revealed. It seems that some of the most prom inent Jeyelers have approached many of the beautiful women, offering to let them wear the finest gems without charge, believing human display much better for business than simply show Ing on the pluih cushions In their window’s. This plan angered the rich society women whose necklaces and tiarrar were their own, and the result Is that many of the most prominent women are asbtaining from wearing an; Jewels at all. Many declare that the Jewelers' Innovation may kill the value of pearls and diamonds for fashion able display. Many women carried their "gem madness" to the extent of wearing diamond trimmed bathing suits, which, naturally, they never allowed to get wet. Final Polo Game Set for Monday Westbury, N.
