COURTS CARELESS WITH OTHER PEOPLE'S TDIE Our neighbor, the South Chto.so Daily Cahuaet, a?ks sre courts for ail the people or are they Pimply conducted for the benefit of lawyers, and as i sort of institution for the "prevention of cruelty to crirainala." The Calumet very pertinently and correctly groea into the question of the law's delay, and cites the dilatory judge, tlme-wastin.a: court attaches, and attorneys who are continually getting continuances.

extravagance in men when the won: en are be.ins cautioned to be so careful and use thrift and economy. How about it?"

j "Self-indulgence and extravagance" are too mild. If is sinfully wasteI ful and disgracefully wicked. Here we have thousand? of young rnon taken from clean, comfortaKle homes and put. into muddy, water-soaked trenches, I the noisesome odors of which would make the smell of a flu factory seem

THE CZAR'S NEW HOME. If Tobolsk be his new place of residence, not much commiseration need be felt for th ex-Tsar.

It Is not exactly the hub of the universe, but it. is the Boston of Siberia and the home cf the arts there. It is said to owe ils culture to the large colony of Swedish officers interned there after Peter the Great's striking victory at Roltava. They brought relinemcnt with fhem, and Its influence has never been Loet. London Chronicle.

DOING THEIR DUTY AND AT OXCE. Indictment by fhe Circuit court grand Jnry at Crown Point at eight rioters, who attacked the Siberian and Montenegrin recruiting mlision 11. this country at Indiana Harhor. fh other evening, will serve as a warning to others, whether they are war, peaice or racial disturbers. For acting bo promptly and vigorously the grand Jurors and the prolocutor's office dMiwre commer.d.ifiori. Besides, they relieve the court and prosecution machinery of the federal government of just .ho much work, learing that part of the law enforcement to deal with titerner and more pressing things. Were all local officers of the law no vigilant in America there would be less of a burden on th United States courts, and the department of justice, freed from insular details, would have more time to devote itself to graver problems.

CAUGHT WJTI1 FINGERS IX THE JAM POT. On page one ? Saturday's Tribune we read in a couple of column that could not do anything but bring about, and which did end in the removal from the presidency of the Oary park board of William '. Gleason, general superintendent of the steel plant, the Oary Tribune now seems to have been f-uddenly stricken with remorse or a fear of punishment, probably both, and is frying to uinko up for it by lauding Mr. Cieason to Ihe skies. Rut Mr. G!asrn afu-r having hud the fine Italian dagger cf a rival s'eel political faction plunged botwern his ribs is hardly the man to forget the recent i-att and injury done hint by the placating words yielded by the editorial typewriter of the newspap-r supporting Mayoralty Candidate llodces. One page one of Saturday's Tribune we read in a couple of coitimns that. Mr. Gleason is an eminent phi'anthron'st and that, as head of th Goodfellowship society he is doing great social service work in the foreign quarter. On the cdi'"-ia! pare we read an editorial praising the excellence of Mr. Gleason and stie-esring what a dear friend and faithful political al'y the editor has been to him. On pase eight of th? same Ss.-nje-.the Tribune in its ea gerne. to smooth out the frown on Mr. Gleason's spacious brow reprints a fawning article from the Gary Post in which Mr. G'.oason is listed as fine of the greatest park administrators the world has eer known. Now all theo things on the part of the Tribune sre very funny. The Tribune editor acts tike a naughty boy who has been causrht in the pantry with his fingors in the jam pot said jam receptacle perhaps belonging to a rival faction irterested in Mr. Gioasor.'s downfall. But Mr. Gle'.ison is too shrewd a man not to see through this Midden effusion of pro !.'. It is too patent of a guilty conscience. Indoed ho r.iut be embarrassed by the p tokening adulation, and the who vulgar thins would be nauseating to the public were the spectacle of the offending boy trj'ng to stave off the expected wra'h by an eleventh hour lepcntance not so amusing.
