The president has nominated q New
York man, Judge Rufus w. peckham,
as Justice of the supreme court of the
United States to succeed the late JUS
tice jackson, and 1t Is expected that he
will be confirmed without unnecessary
delay by the senate, it being understood
that there will be no opposition to him
on the part of the New York senators.
The selection is unquestionably good
one, Judge Peckham having long been
recognized as one of the ablest jurists of
the Empire state, while he is a man of
the highest character. New York was
really entitled to the appointment, il any
state or section can be said to have
claim to representation in the supreme
court of the nation, so that in this re-
gard the president acted judiciously.
With so many able lawyers and jursts
to select from, the choice of Judge Peck
ham is u high compliment to that gen
tleman.
1t need hardly be said that Judge
Peckbam is u democrat, but this will
make no change in the political division
of the court, If there can be said to be
any, as his predecessor was a democrat,
though appointed by President Harrison.
Politics, however, it is agreeable to be-
lieve, does not exert much influence
with the members of our highest judi
cial tribunal In that place of eminence
most men put away from them narrow
political views and prejudices and
hearken only to the commands of duty
and patriotism. At any rate this is
the idea that ought to prevail regarding
the members of the federal supreme
court and undoubtedly there is good
ground for it. If Judge Pcckham is
confirmed the bench, consisting of nine
members. will be full.

Davenport Democrat: The Iowa Soldiers
Home is the subject of recent report tc
Governor Jackson, and by that report it ap-

more interesting to us here In Davenport is
the fact that the Iowa Soldiers Orphan home
is likewise too small. An institution that
would comfortably contain 1000 instead of
400 children would be none too large. And
while the Soldiers home does well in afford
ing shelter to men who defended their coun-
try, but who have not the means of comfort
tble subsistence in their old age, the Orphans
home does better in affording not only home
but education and real working capital of

But the school board has only ostensi-

prove is to run for two years and it is a
reckless underestimate to say that the

a permanent deficit in the school
finances the balances must run up over

THEY SHOTLD BE PAID.

| Notwithstanding the decision of Judge
Dutiie adverse to the claims of the
special policemen who served the city
during August, these men should be
paid. The service which they rendered
was honestly rendered and rendered in
good faith. The city has had the bene-
fit of the protection they afforded in the
preservation of the peace at Il time
when disturbances and disorderly out
breaks were imminent. The people
have had value received and the council
should not hesitate to appropriate the
| money necessary to satisfy the claims
| of these men.
1t is not necessary to so into the
anomalies of this unjust decision. 1t
that what Judge Duffie now says was
an act unauthorized by law-namely, the
appointment of special policemen on
August 2-was what Judge Hopewell
had laid down as the duty of the old
commissioners when he said they should
their offices until the case in dispute
nau Deen adjusted III Il competent court
of justice. 1t is not necessary to point
out the decision of the supreme court
in the McGinn case which practically
says that the police commission law
went into effect on July instead of
on August 1, and to intimate that the
same logic which declares the appoint
ment of these special policemen to have
been Illegal would declare every official
act of the old police board after July
TO have been illegal. The special po-
icemen who We're appointed by this
same board in September to serve dur
ing the state fair have received their
pay, although their employment WAS
precisely similar to that of the special
policemen appointed in August. If one
set of specials was entitled to pay, so
was the other set. The laborer is
worthy of his hire, and the city is under
IL moral if not legal obligation to
pay these men.

lGAIN THE CITY TREASURERS BOND
If anything were needed to prove the
folly of choosing such man as A. G..
Edwards to be custodian of the munich
pal funds, the repeated attempts of the
city treasurerelect and his friends first
in the city council and then in the
school board to reduce his official bond
to mere nominal sum should be con
elusive.
When The Bee criticised the action of
the council in reducing the bond of the
city treasurer from 100000 to 100000
and Illegally changing the basis
of computing the sum from
twice the amount of money
likely to come into his hands as eX
twice the average monthly balances
during the past year, it showed that on
Il condition of affairs not diSsimilar to
what might be expected in the school
board finances, the bond required might
be instead of twice the amount
session only few thousand
dollars less than that amount.
Mr. Edwards friends on the Board of
Education have actually attempted to
put that illustration into effect by fixing
the city treasurer's bond ms custodian
of the school funds ut 100000, while
admitting that he would have not less
than S95,OO0 of school money in his
hands in January next. Only because
the combine was not strong enough in
the present board to carry out this
scheme has the bond to the school dis
trict been fixed at 100000, still less by
500 900 than that required year ago.
The most interesting feature TO the
taxpayers In the action of the school
board Is that it has ostensibly fixed the
amount of the treasurer's bond upon ex-
actly the opposite basis to that adopted
by the council. The school board fixed
the amount of the bond ostensibly on
the basis of twice the amount of money
likely TO be In the treasurer's hands ut
any one time. The attorney for the
school board who has been elected as
one of the district judges and is TO
take his seat on the district bench next
month, asserted that he could not speak
in any palmer language than that of
the statute and that the law plainly de-
clared the bond must be at least double
the amount Of money likely to be In

vestibu1tnx street Cars.
Butfkl9 EXprcss.


We sincerely hope that some able and in
auencial mtmberhwA introduce a bill in the
New York lsgslStnTe early in the coming
session to requtE all street cars to be vesii-
buled This seems TO be the only way OF
compelling the pfiicials of street car COM
panies to provide proper protection for their
men during the inclement season. 1t is an
outrage on human nature to force a man to
stand exposed to the full fury Of wind and
sleet and snow for ten, twelve or more hours
day. Common humanity demands that
motoTmen and conductors should be accorded
this protection. But the vestibules are
needed not only for the protection
OF the men who run the car. but
for the protection of the travelling public. 1t
stands to reason that motorman who has
been exposed to the biting blasts of winter
for several hours is not in proper condition
TO act quickly in case Of emergency. He is
chilled, his arms and hands are benumbed
and he is naturally more engaged in trying
to thaw himself out, to alleviate his own
sufferlngs, than he is in running his car.
This is condition which ought not to be
permitted, on the ground OF public safety

The mathematical genius who pre-
sides over the controversial sessions of
the Board of Health has promulgated a
set of figures which he says represents
the death rate in Omaha and which es-
tablishes the death rate of this city as
the lowest in the United States. This
would be extremely gratifying if true.
The Bee rejoices as much as any one
in the healthfulness of Omaha, but it
does not believe that the condition of
its inhabitants can be improved by
spreading misleading statistics. The
health commissioners death rate is
computed upon population altogether
too large and this accounts in n word
for its being so remarkably low
Omaha will compare favorably in nat
ural conditions with any other city in
this part of the country and should be
content to rest its reputation as a
health resort on the actual facts.
