Fulton dreamed of the steamship, and made his dream come true. The Wrights dreamed of the airship, and made THEIR dream a reality, No cloud can ever shadow the glory of Wilbur Wright. JUST in passing, it is worth noting ¢ that while President Taft Is ing his followers in Ohio, where the popular vote was overwhelm: er against him, to fight for the contro! of the six delegates-at-iarge, Roosevelt has publicly surrendered the d jes-atlarge in Masea- when the popular vote was against him by a much emailer majority. [increasing the Contempt for Courts| The shoe machinery trust has asked that its trial be held in secret. Its attorney, Mr. Choate, has filed an application with Judge William H. Putnam of the United States district court, requesting that the press and public be excluded The complaisant attitude of Judge Putnam is shown in his remarks to District Attorney French: “There has already been too much of the wrong kind of publicity in this case He refused to hear the district attorney on this subject A peremptory order was then entered by the judge, the effect of which is to postpone even the discussion as to open @f secret hearings while Judge Colt takes a vacation and some other judges suit their private convenience. The delay will be at least a month. In what respect does the case of the shoe machinery trust differ from the steel trusts, the standard oil or the tobacco trusts? These cases were tried in open court What kind of publicity is it which Judge Putnam regards as “the wrong kind of publicity The shoe machinery trust is one of the worst trusts in existence. It is the kind which taxes the poor man's necessities, Judges like this New England judge, who consider ex posures of trusts as a “wrong kind of publicity” are the kind Of judges who bring our courts into contempt and afford addi tional arguments for the recall ALTHOUGH tax collections increased by over $2,000,000 from 1909 te 1911, County Treasurer Will Hanna has reduced the cost of collection over $25,009. Im 1909 it cost $105,846, while in the last year it fell to 721. The taxes collected in 1909 amounted to $8,443,191, and in 1011 to $1 Observations BET that “houn’” song is some favorite with those Tacoma players Just now. °o ° ° WOULD you say that those thi candidates PULLED THROUGH the state dental board’s examination °o ° ° SURE sign of the approach of summer: Three ice men hav begun cheating on seiehte Deputy Weight Inspector Jared alleges. oe ° POPULAR impression ae another rude jolt.
