Soek Direct Issue This Is an amplification of the posi tion taken by the New York leRislature in. its appeal' of the enforcement net. Hy its statement that congress should net to turn the ipiestion back to the. stntes, the Maryland platform seeks to make tho question n direct and definite Issue In the I1ll!4 congressional elections.

Jlut, an was pointed out at first. that Is the district attorney of fiction, t little scene in justice court this morn ing would tear such pictures to uhreds. "Stand up, Frank Hartell," was the order of Acting Justice Harold .1. Wells.

Asked If ho wanted an nttorney, ho snid he had no money for such pur poses; nsked if he could provide bail, the answer came. With It flowed a story of sickness, injury and privation that "reg istered." It seemed from . the interewt shown, with every peace officer in tho courtroom. A heuvy, foreign accent only udded Interest and a touch of romance to the story of this veteran, as he told of his sick wife, a baby in none to good health, his own Injury of early summer when ho broke a leg and bin eniployein had to advance money to keep up his home. ...'... "WViuld yon, should T recommend jo the judge tluit you be released on your own reeoznixaiiee, be hero Moudny morn ing nt ):'Mi to stand trial on the charge Y" queried Prosecutor Clyde Johnston. Asuranco came speedily from Hartell, and then a halting, stammering an nouncement: "1 havo no nickel, but I can start early and walk down from Mabel." "What Is the railroad faro? ; "A dollur." "Hero," said Johnston; a hand came from a tronser nocket nnd a heavy sli ver coin rang on the table top and slid across to tho accused. Picture the district nttorney nt fic tion.
