DEATH OF DAVID DAVIS.

~
Judge David Davis, formerly one of the
Associates Justices of tho United States Sg-
preme Court and subsequently United
States Senator and acting Vice President,
died last Saturday, at his residence in
Bloomington, Ills, from protFacted and
painful attack Of Bright's disease OF the
kidneys. Judge Davis was born in Cecil
county, Maryland, March 9, 1915; gradua
ted at Kenyon College, Ohio, in 1882; stud
led law in Lenox, Mass, and New Haven,
Conn.,, and began practice in Illinois in
1885, locating at Bloomington the follow
ing year. His first public Office was that Of
member Of the State Legislature, to which
he was elected in 1874. In 1847 he was
chosen delegate to State Constitutional
Convention, and in 1o48 was elected judge
of Circuit Court, holding this Office by
repeated reflections until 1862, when he
resigned to accept a seat on the Federal Sn-
preme Bench by appointment Of President
Lincoln. He served in this position until
March 5, 1877, retiring to enter the Senate
as successor to Gen. Logan, having been
elected by fusion of the Democrats and
Independents in the Illinois Legislature.
The POLITICAL course of Judge Davis was
somewhat erratic, q fact generally attrib-
uted by public sentiment to his supposed
aspirations to tie Presidency, but his char
acter as a citizen and official has ever been
spotless and he enjoyed the respect of
friends and opponents alike Throughout his
long and honorable life.

A FARCE PLAYED OUT,

~ IhhNL LIZA LIZ w 4.
The Fontelieu Impeachment trial has
reached an abrupt and inglorious conclu-
sion. The House of Representatives
adopted resolution instructipg its mana
gers to discontinue the prosecution. A
portion of the Senate made pretense of
desiring to continue the trial in spite of the
Houses no1le pros, but after some palaver
the farce was brought to an end by the
adoption of orders dismissing the case and
discharging the accused and witnesses.
We congratulate the General Assembly
upon its tardy but otherwise sensible &C
ton in this matter. It had become appar-
ent that the prosecution of Judge Foutelieu
was partisan, vindiGtive movement, in
tended rather to disfranchise him than to
subserye the ends of Justice. Then, it would
have been exceedingly difficult to prove
that possible election Irregularities or
frauds committed in the parish of st. Mar
tin in the interest Of Fontelieu' s candidacy,
had even approximated in magnitude the
barefaced and notorious villainies per-
petrated in Iberia for the purpose of foist-
ing Gates and his associates into Office.

Mr.. r. N. Chapman, we'll known and

W. G. Gholson's block binding. tension
equalizing patent wire fence, which is
claimed to have no equal for beauty,
strength, durability and economy, and to
be fire, food and storm proof We have ex-
amined illustrations of the fence, and so
far as can be judged by appearances we feel
confident it possesses all the advantages
claimed for it by the inventor. Besides hav-
ing good thing to offer the public, which
will yield purchasers full return for it's
cost, Mr.. Chapman is particularly deserv-
ing of liberal patronage by reason of the
unfortunate circumstances in which he has
been placed during the past year. Having
sustained an accident by which one Of his
legs was broken, he has been wholly inca
pacitated 10. work for a number of months
and gladly accepta the opportunity which
the agency of the Gholson fence seems to
afford for earning livelihood for himself
and his family.
