Chairman Greene of the Republican
State Central committee has issued an
address to the voters of this state in
which he says some good things about
the republican nominees for the supreme
bench, and the good thing about 1t is,
they are all true. AS between the re-
publican nominees for the supreme
bench and the democratic or popullst
candidates, the former are head and
shoulders above their competitors SO far
as their qualifications are concerned,
and this is the real point at issue in a
judicial election. Politics should cut
little or no figure. Chairman Greene
himself Ia the address says OF the bench
they care men who recognize no party
by reason of its politics. Ia its official
capacity. all men stand on al equal
footing before their tribunal. This is a
principle that all good citizens should
encourage and support"
This independence OF politics is what
the trainers OF our state constitution
had in mind when they set the judicial
elections apart from other elections.
While the constitution could not prevent
party nominations from being made, it
could set the election at such a time
that 1t would be removed as far as pos
sible from party influence, dictatlon or
embodiment in party politics, leaving
the voter free TO choose the best man for
the position OF judge without sacrificing
any party interest or allegiance. In the
case of the state bench there are none
but party nominations and fortunately
uf these the republican candidates are
by far the best fitted for the position by
reason OF ability, experience and integ
riJy. When the voter comes to circuit
judges there is the same reason To-
choosing the best qualified OF the candl
dates no matter what party he belong
to-. This is in accordance with the spir
it and intent of Dur constitution.
In the Second judicial circuit, tn
non-partisan candidate, Hon. FL. Il
Keith, is without question the ables
man for Judge and his election to tn
Office would be carrying out the spiri
and letter of our constitution SO point
eddy expressed by Chairman Greene
He would also constitute a bench whic
awould recognize no party by reason
it's politics.

WORLDS FAIR GROUNDS, Oct. 3d.
The greatest aggregation of mayors
ever gathered left the Chicago City Hall
for a special train on the Illinois Cen
trail railroad. They were on their way
to the worlds fair to participate in the
celebration of American Cities day.
How many there were in the line is
variously estimated by those who saw
the start. A good criterion or the num-
Der is given by the city clerk,
who distributed before the start
over 1000 badges. Ever then not
all were supplied before the marching
column with the Second regiment band
started for the depot. As Mayor Car
ter Fl. Harrison of Chicago appeared at
the head of the column, most OF the
visiting officials recognized him by the
ever present SLOUGH hat and he was
given an ovation. At the head, Mayor
Stuart of Philadelphia Joined him at
Chairman Madden's request. The band
struck up a lively march and the cfi-
Gals were off tc~tne fair. The day
was raw and disagreeable. The
sun was hidden by clouds which herald
the approach of colder weather, and
visitors are wrapped in winter gar
ments. The folly of off cial extension

An End of Wars.

Congressman Henderson Of Iowa
has made many speeches in con-
gress and out. As young man he
was a soldier in the volunteer army
in the war Of the rebellion. In all
his public career, whether in the
army or in congress, Henderson
never gave utterance to a thought
more credible to him, or if it could
be carried into effect, more helpful
of humankind, than his address at
the reunion of the Army Of the
Tennessee when he said, bluntly
and tersely: my theme to-day is
war, and / am against it,"
He was addressing an audience
composed of officers who had honor.
ably borne their part in long and
sanguinary conflict. The answer OF
these experienced men to this dec.
laration of an old-time soldier against
war was loud appause. Henderson
continued: "At our annual meet
ings we had paid glowing tributes
to the heroic deeds of our armie.
and their commanders. To-day
call a brief halt while we look
spuarely into the face of this mon
ster that has covered the earth with
human graves"
The speaker demonstrated the
enormous cost in treasure of con
Quoting wars. He showed how %,
100000 men were in the standing
armies Of Europe, costing peace
full people annually some 1914, OOO,'
600, and he spoke trumpet tongue
for arbitration as substitute TO
appeal to arms.
Col. Henderson fought for tn,
maintenance of the union in a wa
commenced by the states which
seeded therefrom. That war ex
hausted these states and for Ions
time their recovery was slow. L
was an expensive war to the north
costing nightly in blood and treas
ure. The real essence of the quar-
rel was the question of slavery
though both sides were inclined TO
time to keep that in the back
ground. If slavery had ceased
gradually by manumission as tn
result Of arbitration, if slaves a
chattles had been paid for and givel
their freedom, the cost would no
have been a drop in the buckle
compared with that which was inn
posed upon both sections Of tn
country in the awful internecin
conflict.

regarding pensions at Baltimore,
Nd, set to work, to unearth the
matter, and the following telegram
from Baltimore tells its own story
as to what has been brought to
light.
Frauds of startling character
have been discovered by Pension
Examiners Cutler and Sidman here
in Baltimore. The government has
been robbed for years by forgeries
and other crimes which have come
to light through the present system
of delivering pension checks at the
postoffice. The examiners now
have OH hand no less than thirty
five cases of fraud. These they are
investigating and they believe that
five times that number will be dis
covered before their labors have
been completed. The examiners
were sent here from Washington
and Philadelphia to deliver the let
tiers. The checks were delivered as
fast as they were called for and no
attempt was made TO stop them.
But note books were conspicuous
on the examiners desks. Frequent
entries were made in them and now
that the delivery is about completed
the books are full of notes and the
writing tells of forgeries, perjury
and the collection of more than one
pension by a number Of alleged
veterans. Officials refuse to give
the names of more than three of the
men mixed up in the cases they
have on hand. These are Robert
Graham, Ed Egan, who has beer
impersonating Eugene Egan, a DO.
ma fide veteran, and Richard Wiley
Graham is claimed to have had two
service certificates, drawing a pen
sion on each, while Egan is accused
of having deliberately forged the
name of the veteran who bore
similar name. Wiley was drawing
a pension, but had never been in tn
| army.

There was a rousiug meeting of
1000 textile workers held in Phil
adelphia on the 14th. These men
represent the big mills of Kensing-
ton, the center of the textile inter-
ests of the state and the leading
wooden and carpet manufacturing
district in the country. 1t was a
tariff reform gathering and the
high protectionists got many a hard
blow from the speakers. These
men declared that a high protective
tariff is of no benefit whatever to
the textile works in this country,
and that the tariff benefits only the
manufacturer. One speaker said
that the Republican mill-owners
are actually closing their places to
brighten Congress away from a tar
if reform measure. The men and
manufacturers Of that and other
cities, who have appeared before
the ways and means committee,
were charged with purposely mis-
representing the situation.

The recent train robberies in In
diana and the upper peninsula of
Michigan would seem to demonstrate
the fact that it is about time meas
ures were adopted for the protection
of life and property, from the on
slaught of the bandit element. When
four Williams can hold up train
and rob it of $4,000, without him
drance, it is time for people to come
to the conclusion that death should
be the only penalty to be meeted
out to such rascals when caught,
and very Strong effort should be
made to do the catching before the
robberies are committed. The
time ought to come very soon when
the only thing necessary to be done
after an attempt to hold up train
has been made, would be to bury
the carcasses of the would-be rob-
bers.

1t will be good news to many
to learn that the value of hem
lock timber is greatly increasing
year by year. 1t is being pushed
rapidly to the front for building
purposes in eastern markets, as a
natural result of the growing scare
ity of white pine. 1t is now said
that all the large yards keep hem
lock in stock. Hemlock ceiling is
being used in the east. Hemlock
shingles are sold, wholesale, at 1925
when pine brings $3.50. 1t is said
that one Chicago firm sold 2O,OOO,-
600 feet of hemlock last year,
while five years ago 100000 feet
would have been an enormous years
business. Hemlock has been tested
for flooring, finishing and dimen-
sion, and in every case favorable re-
ports have been made of the wood.
The time will undoubtedly be when
hemlock will be considered among
our valuable wood for constructive
purposes.
