ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATCH.l
WASHINGTON. October 81 don't think the
Northern press has quite done justice to our
Mississippi Boulanger," said Mr.. Ralph Bollin to
the correspondent of THE DISPATCH to-day.
Mr.. Bollin is a prominent attorney, a former
official of the Attorney Generals Office, dis
missed by Cleveland on account of his Repub-
licanism.
"And who is the Mississippi Boulanger?"
"Blanch K, Bruce, the colored ex-senator
and ex-Register of the Treasury. We call him
Boulanger because he was elected a delegate
to the late State convention from no less than
four counties, the largest and most populous in
the State. The districts elected dele
gates to the county conventions, which
in turn elected delegates to the State
convention. Bruce was elected in his
own county of Warren, in which Vicksburg is
situated, Hines, in which is jackson, the State
capital, and from Bolivar and Leake counties.
1t is the first case of the kind that know of in
the United States Then in the State conven-
tion Bruce was elected temporary and perma-
nent chairman by acclamation though the con-
vention was composed largely of whites"

THE Turks are longing for Emperor Will
lam to visit them because a prophecy exists
which says that one-armed monarch from
q foreign country shall prove shield which
shall effectually defend Turkey from the
grasp of the dreaded Muscovite. And En-
peror William is SO sensitive to any refer
ence to his dwarfed arm that he will stay
away from Constantinople because of the
noise the prophecy has made. Turkeys
luck is of very poor quality nowadays.

EXCEEDED HIS AUTHORITY.
A Peculiar Charge Against the Chief
Justice of Arizonn.

Justice OF ArfZonns
WASHINGTON, October 3-For some time
past vigorous effort has been made to procure
the removal of Chief Justice Wright Of
Arizona, but no one could be found ready to
put the complaint against him in proper
shape. Formal charges. however, duly signed
and sworn to, have at last reached Washlng-
ton, and an investigation has beeE ordered.
The principal accusation, it is said, is that the
Chief Justice overrode the laws of the Ter
ritory in several cases, and had way of i'm
posing the penalty of banishment upon cul-
prits in place OF, or as an alternatlve, Ior some
of the punishments prescribed by statute.
1t is not complained that this practice hadn't
a wholesome influence upon the general moral
tone of the community by Kidding 1t OF bad
characters whose offenses were only made
ouately provided for in the laws, but it is
argued that a magistrate of the rank OF a
Chief Justice is appointed to expound, not to
amend, the system of jurisprudence.

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATcHl
WASHINGTON, October 3-Senator McMil-
Ian called on the President to-day to urge the
claims of the State of Michigan to
the vacancy on the bench of the Supreme
Court. He came away somewhat hopeful. Not
withstanding the reports that have been
circulated of late with so mnch appearance
of truth, it is learned tonight on the highest
authority that at no time has the President
thought seriously of appointing Attorney Gen.
eral Miller to the place.
The appointment will not be made till after
the meeting of Congress. Of the long list of
candidates for the place, the two men with the
strongest backing are Judge Henry B. Brown
