For years it has been a giant pickpocket standing at the gates of that great city of the nation, filching, brazenly, from the pockets of every traveler, taking its toll from every pound of freight that entered or quit the municipality. : aie Did you note how “justice” has overtaken it? The U.S supreme court found it to be a trust violating the Sherman law The U. S. supreme court punished the pickpocket by giving it 90 days in which to alter its style of picking pockets—another Standard Oil-Tobacco Trust penalty We may now expect a boom jin Terminal stock, for does not King Pierp. Morgan's former partner, Per kins, say: “What more could a sordid, selfish corporation man want than to have his corpofation dissolved, on paper, in such a way as to bring increased profits to inside stockholders and increased cost to outside consumers, as in the case of the Stand- ard Oil and Tobacco companies?” How long, oh, Lord, shall they play the people for fools? Association In announcing his candidacy, Gov. Hay promises to work)” for a preferential presidential primary law during his next term, if elected. Gov.

Probably he was just going through the motions for a Moving-picture concern. e City Beautiful Ide 1 Window boxes, Why not? A contributor to the “Editor's Mail,” after commenting on the victory won to keep the municipal g¢ e out of Dilling rk, suggests that more plans for making ttle the really City Beautiful” be taken up. And the suggestion is made that if several hundred people should place boxes of flowers in their front windows, it would make an exceedingly attractive feature. Several women’s organizations have already taken the idea up, and, if you'll notice very carefully in a ride about the city, u'll find that scores of boxes filled with pretty plants have n placed under windows. It’s a dandy idea. Why not put some window boxe YOUR windows? Let not the heat of the political battle make you forget that the war between Turkey and Italy is still on.

Jerry speaks rough his widow, a spirit medium, and says he is for Champ Clark, who will be nominated and elected. Jerry always was interested in our politics and the idea that he can still participate is not so very inharmonious with & conception of heaven as a state in which there may be some Uttle enjoyment of the good, things that are earthly. Still, we cannot imagine whiy Jerry is for Clark. Clark is nothing that lerry ever stood for and we cannot picture Champ’s elegant cloth and Jerry's bare, hairy shanks marching and fight ing side by side in the same ranks. It must be that Jerry has taken to wearing stockings just like an aristocrat, which would ite some radical economic if not moral changes in Jerry IN THE EDITOR’S MAIL Editor the Star: The or Protest aainst the neglect of the dinance is on the books, it is wise police to enforce the ordinance gov- and needful for the future of o @rning the presence of minor# in young men, and it must be obeyed pool rooms, As every father and) [ hope the other mothers who Bother knows, the pool room, with love their children will help me in its temptation to gamble, its oppor |this matter tunities for loafing, and the low ANXIOUS MOTHER class of men hanging around, is one _ of the worst influences for the| Editor The Star: I want to make youth of the country.
