session of her pretty 6-year-old daugh
ter by a former marriage. In his de
cision the judge remanded the child
permanently into the custody of
George and Hettie Snyder, a contrac
tor and his wife of Liverpool. Sny
i der is reported to be wealthy. This
decision ended a legal battle of more
than a year for the possession of the
child and is asserted by lawyers to bo
without a precedent.
Since the decision, Mrs. Streightiff
has been nearly prostrated with grief.
• Last evening she sat in her little home
in Valley street, Marysville and cave
• a history of the case. Apparently she
■ is unconvinced of the legality of the
I judge's decision and believes that she
[ will yet. be able tq secure the return
- of her daughter from the wealthy con
- tractor.
9 "Why all the lawyers told us we
i would get little Mary back," she wept,
s "Then when they took her from me
i they told us that the judge's action
was unprecedented. Why, It seems
f that we are not really living In the
. twentieth century. This seems more
i like the old dark ages when a rich
s and powerful baron could sweep down
; upon a defenseless family and seize
the sturdiest son or prettiest daughter
and ride away unharmed. Why—"
"But, Mrs. Streightiff," she was in
terrupted, "how did they get possession
of little Mary, or Mary Alice as you
call her?"
History of tlie C'a*e
Then her hands twitched as she
gripped the arm of her rocker and
her lips trembled from the grief which
she was evidently trying to suppress,
she gave a history of the case.
In 1911 Mrs. Streightiff was a widow.
Her name then was Mrs. Alice Kling.
She earned a poor existance for her
'self and small daughter, Mary Alice,
by nursing the sick in and about Liv
erpool.
During the latter part of November,
1911, she was called to Marysville to
nurse the two small sons of Robert A.
Streightiff, a widower of less than a
year. The sons were seriously 111 with
typhoid fever.
Not caring to bring her little daugh
ter Into contact with this disease,
Mrs. Kling left the child with the fam
ily Oi George Snyder, In Liverpool,
with the understanding, she says, of
coming back for the child just as
soon as ehe was through with her
"case."

tlon. There was much for a woman
to do about the Streightiff home and
she remained to do it. Robert A.
Strein'htiff, the boys' father, became
attached to his sons' nurse, fell in love
with and married her. This was in
December, 1912.
A few months later Mr. and Mrs.
Streightiff decided that they would
bring little Mary Alice to her new
home. They wrote to the Enyder fam
ily to this effect. But in the meantime
the Snyder's had become attached to
the little girl and—they refused to
give her up.
Start Fight For Child
Mr. Streightiff and bis wife than in
stituted legal proceedings to get the
child. Streightiff is a carpenter in the
employe of the Pennsylvania railroad
and owns his own home in Valley
street, Marysville. He is also active in
church circles. Their lawyer thought
they would have little trouble in get
ting possession, of the child.
A writ of habeas corpus was grant
ed and a hearing held. Judge Selbert,
however, ordered the child remand
ed to the custody of the wealthy con
tractor for one year, hut giving the
plaintiffs the right to renew their ap
plication for possession of the child at
the end of this time.
The writ was renewed recently and
Wednesday was the day set for a
hearing. Little Mary Alice was in
court and saw her mother for the first
time within the year. While the lawy
ers argued the legal points of the case
the little girl sat opposite her mother.
At the conclusion of the lawyer's
plea she drew a sigh of relief and
leaned back. She seemed satisfied
that the judge would give her back
her daughter. As the Judge began to
speak she looked across the room to
where her daughter sat and smiled.
Evidently she had misunderstood the
judge's words. With a happy little
cry she sprang across the room and
gathered the child into her arms, kiss
ing her many times. Only the mother
had failed to hear the Judge's words
and no one wanted to tear her from
her child. The wealthy contractor,
however, rose and beckoned to a court
attendant. The attendant touched the
mother. Gently as though his duty
was distasteful to him, he told her she
must give up her daughter—that the
judgo had said so.

are using every means within their
power to gain support and to over
come this Judge Kunkel needs every
vote he can get in his home district
and the surrounding counties where
he is best known.
The Straw Vote
Friends of the Judge say that the
straw vote on the judicial situation
taken by a Philadelphia newspaper
counts for little as indicating the real
situation, but they see much to en
courage them In its rather Indefinite
and altogether inconclusive results.
There is an old story that Themis
tocles successfully led the Grecian
army against Xerses, the Persian, and
that after the battle was over all of
the Greek officers met and decided by
ballot to whom the most honor was
due for the victory. When the ballots
were counted It was discovered that
each officer had voted for himself as
deserving the highest honor, but that
every one had voted for Themsistocles
as second.
The straw vote of the State Bar As
sociation is an interesting present ex
ample of the same principle. As could
have been expected, Endiich, who was
a president of that association, re
ceived the majority of the votes as
first choice. Frazier, of Pittsburgh,
received a large vote, but this is not
so significant when it is noted that It
hardly exceeds the number of mem
bers of the association from that city.
Judge Kunkel leads all the candidates
as second choice. This indicates that

office.
Yet after all a straw vote among
lawyers is not the best test of popular
feeling. Judge Kunkel is distinctly
the candidate of the people. He is not
backed by any political party or or
ganization, but his campaign is being
taken directly to the voters and his
fitness and record as a judge, particu
larly in the Capitol graft cases, Is be

MRS. PRESTON RETURN'S
New' York, May 15.—Mrs. Thomas

Cleveland, who has been living for
some time abroad, arrived in New
York to-day on the Lusitania. She said
that she had come only for a short
stay in this country.
! Two Ounces of Flesh: or the Promise Fulfilled j
[From the New York Sun.]
Among many costly thoughts on view :
in the national Democratic platform of ,
1912 this is still precious:
"The high cost of living is a serious
problem in every American home. The .
Republican party, in its platform, at- ,
tempts to escape from responsibility
for present conditions by denying that ,
they are due to a protective tariff. We
take issue with them on this subject j
and charge that excessive prices result 1
in a large measure from the high tariff :
laws enacted and maintained by the
Republican party." <
The high tariff laws have been laid
low. The citadel of protection has
been blown up. The sin stained sur- |
plus provided by the Payne-Aldrlch
tariff of iniquity has been transformed
into an honest, a virtuous and a wax
ing deficit. American manufacturers, i
fattening In stupefying ease under the i
old wickedness, have had their noses ,
turned to the grindstone by a Congress
and an administration eager to edu
cate, improve and reform the dull
wilted beneflciaries of protective greed.
These have not been equal to or grate
ful for their educational privileges.
They see the export of manufactures
and the import of manufacturers' ma
terials dwindling. They see American
industrial production shrink. Their 11

by the competition to which the Adam
Smith of Warp Twisting-in, the Hon.
William C. Red Held, so yearned to
subject them. Yet a Washington dis
patch in Monday's Sun contained this
triumphant vindication of the tariff and
the Democratic method of lowering the
cost of living:
"Meantime the talk about increased
supplies of food and reduced prices
through removal of duties on foodstuffs
is making manifest its real qualities.
The records of tbo six months show an
importation of 83,000,000 pounds of
fresh beef in that period or about two
ounces a month for each individual in
the United States.
"The official records of the Depart
ment of Commerce show that prices at
which the importation occurred were
more than SO per cent, higher in March
under the new law, than In September,
the last month of the old law, while In
many other of the articles, on which
duties were reduced, the pfices abroad
were promptly advanced.

four ounces of beef a; year for every
man, woman and child, an amount not
ably increased when allowance is made

foodstuff prices are up, is it because
people are better, and therefore hun
grier under the Democratic administra
tion?
