On Friday of last week the United

REMOVAL or FEDERAL JUDGES.

u Territorial Justice:

Has the President n Legal right to suspend
II Territorial Justice:
IN the case OF Judge McAllister of Alas
la, the Senate will probably pass Il reso.
luton calling upon the Attorney. General
for information as to the authority under
which !. Tustic>. OF the United States Court
has been suspended. Section 176S of the
revised Statutes says: "During any recess
Of the Senate, the President is authorized,
in his discretion, to suspend any civil OF.
! ficcr appointed by and with the advice and
| consent of the Senate, except the Judges
of the Courts OF the United Statcs.'
President Cleveland has suspended three
Chief Justices Of the Territories and seven
Associate Justices, which is held bv the
Judiciary Committee to be a direct viola
ton of the law. The Administration will
take the ground that Territorial Justices
are not Justices OF the United States Courts
in the meaning of the statute, but the
Judiciary Committee say they belong as
much to the Federal Judiciary as a Justice
Of the Supreme Court, and that that ex.
cepting clause was placed in the statutes,
as the debates conclusively show, to pro-
tect the Judiciary Of the Territories from
Executive interference.
Ii the President has IL right to remove
Justices Mt pleasure lie could control the
Judiciary. Justice Mclean of the United
States Supreme Court in All opinion de-
livered in 1855 said: ''The Presiden: has
no more power to remove Territorial
Judge than to repeal the laws. The duties
of a Judge of Territory are discharged as
independently and as free from Executive
control as are the duties OF the Judge of
the Supreme Court of the United States

Dropped Dead ON His Doorstep.

The Salt Lake Tribune contains the fol.
lowing account OF the death, in that city,
Of former resident of Butte:
Charles F. Mench, Of ST. South Main
street, dropped dead at his doorstep about
IL o'clock Friday night from cardiac par.
alysis. He had gone out to take in the
hammock which was swung between two
apple trees in the front yard. His wife was
by his side as he was, untying the nnec
ti0na, and she had been congratulating
herself on her husband'shaving apparently
recovered from his heart difficulty, and life
seemed very pleasant to her. But sud.
denly Mench, pressing his left hand
over his heart, gave q sharp cry
Of pain and commenced to gasp. The
frightened wife caught his right
arm at once and hurried him to the
house, calling her mother to bring q dose
of digitalis, the remedy she had on hand for
such emergencies. As they reached the
step, Mr.. Mench fell unconscious in her
arms and although they got two teaspoons.
full Of medicine down him, he shortly
breathed his last. Doctors Hamilton and
White were Immediately called in but the
unfortunate man was past their help. He
was 80 years old and leaves a wife and in
FAINT child, in this city, and parents in Ger
many. Mench came to this city five weeks
ago from Butte, where he has been work
ing at his carpenters trade. Pneumonia
left him in bad shape nine months ago, and
q severe attack of rheumatism of the heart
subsequently compelled him to come fur
ther south. But it seems the malady was
incurable.
