tng Oo. WARM HEARTS IN A COLD WORLD This is a hard and crue! world, a crushing, grinding, rend ing, pitiless world. A world for the strong, in which the weak must go down, relentlessly down. Might rules with an fron hand, and right protests softly and in vain. You have often heard this. You have often seen glaring examples of man’s inhumanity to man, and what is far worse, woman's inhumanity to woman Recall the story printed in The Star about a poor little girl mother and her nameless babe; how she had to give away her little boy and hide herself away from the scornful eyes of the world? Another proof of the heartlessness of the world, you say You are wrong. The world is full of great big hearted people, and this sad incident has shown it. Ever since The Star printed the story of this life tragedy letters, notes, messages, telephone calls have come to this office offering help to the little mother and her tiny boy. No crested letter, no scented linen paper, with gilded monogram but letters written on the haphazard stationery of the poor written in the cramped hand of toil; letters from the people In these letters they poured out their hearts’ sympathy ia a welling stream, and their offers of help, if they could be combined, would make the poor little mother and her boy rich in the world’s possessions. A half hundred persons called at the home where the baby was kept, offering it what their own homes contained. Mothers of toil, with large families, gladly offered to take the baby, and protested their willingness to take up the burden that was too heavy for the mother. Others told of empty fives and homes that ached for the echoes of baby’s prattle. One man writes to The Star: “T have lived a selfish, lonesome life. I don’t know why I am interested in the case. I don't know the girl; have never seen her; but I'm willing to pay for her board and room and for her baby.” A woman writes: “I am in a position to offer an ample home to both. It is a crime to take the baby from his mother. A thousand women weep with me tonight at this outrage on these two friendless, helpless creatures, on this poor little heart broken mother.” These are excerpts from but two letters. There are many more, all throbbing with heart sympathy; all anxious to help So this isn’t so bad a world, after all. There are men and women with warm hearts, noble souls and willing hands to help in the dark hours. Not so bad a world after all! GOOD WORK, JUSTICE CARROLL The emotions of those butchers who dodged from Justice Brown's court to that of Mr. Carroll is accurately measured in the one word, “STUNG!” “Stung” they were, right up to the hilt of the law, and it will be many a day before the inflammation di their bank accounts. Five hundred dollars represents a large eum to recover by the use of any illegal preservative. Five hundred dollars represents the profits of a meat market for| some considerable time. Five hundred dollars is altogether an efficient reminder that law is law and right is right . The decision of Justice Carroll is a triumph tice that is close to the common people. Justices Brown and Carroll have raised their tribunals to a high pedestal in the eyes of the public. To the lowest court in the state the people may look and expect justice, even if their confidence in higher places has been sorely tried in the past. Justices Carroll and Brown have seen to that It will be a sight to watch the progress of these cases—to note their effect on the meat selling class generally, uppears from justice—jus freezum” and incidentally to observe to what shifts the law can be put These cases will be appealed and many technical reasons set forth to show that the guilty defendants should not be fined If Justice Carroll's decision, with its maximum fine, stands the test of the higher court, it will establish a precedent for punishing future violators of the food laws. With a $500 fine in sight, no butcher will use freezum. Justice Carroll has furnished the instrument to wipe out the practice of “doc toring” meats. If he is sustained by the higher courts, the public may eat its meat with some assurance that it has not reached a stage of putrefaction cleverly disguised by some chemical The reverse will be the case if the defendants are awarded the benefit of some legal triviality. That is why the cases will be closely watched. They are the most important that have come before the public in a long time.
