raised to higher standard of justice
and had a greater zeal to stay crime,
after listening to Judge Redwine's in

were, in the whole, pointed, sagacious
and eloquent. He emphasized the i'm

and not trying to conjure up excuses for

the giolator from further violations;

For the Southern District of the Indian

Washington, March 21.-The following
app jintmeGts were announced at the White
House today: VIM. NJ. Springer Of
Illinois, judge of the United States court
for the southern district of Indian Ter
ritory.
G. Il. Kilgore, judge of the southern dis
trict of Indian Territory.
TO be attorneys of the United States,
James v Walker for the central
district of Indian Territory; Andrew
G. Creace, of the Indian Territory, for
the southern district of the Indian Ter

The two Indian Territory judgeships
are newly created Offices and were es-
tablished by an act of the last congress
for the purpose of checking, in a meas
ire, the great spread and growth of law
lcssness and crime in the Indian Ter
ritory, which had become refuge for
robbers and outlaws.
The new judges are well known ex-

POSTAL EMPLOYEES.
Secretary Of the Letter Carriers Asssocia-
ton Makes a Statement.

Washington. March 21.-John f. Vic
tory, secretary of the National Associa-
ton of Letter Carriers, denied that n
combination of postal employees had been
formed for the purpose of bringing press
ure upon congress to overturn any rules
or regulations of the postoffice department
or for the purpose of lobbying through
congress legislation designed in their in
terests. Mr.. Victory made the following
statement in regard to those reports:
"The only possible foundation the re-
port can have is in the fact that con-
gress, in its closing hours, modified q
detrimental rule recurring that postal
clerks should reside on the line of their
run. This was done by an amendment
to the postOffice appropriation bill. The
department resented congressional inter
ference by revOking all passes to such
employees beyond their own run. This
action was severely criticised by paper
claiming to represent the railway clerks,
which advised the clerks to deal directly
with congress in future in all proposed
legislation relating to their condition
"The fact that Congressman Linton OF
Michigan, in the last house of represen.
tatives. introduced what has been called
an ominous bill which the railway postal
clerks. the pOstOflice clerks and the letter
carriers have for five years labored to
have made laws, may have had something
to do with the matter. The claims OF
both groups of clerks have been endorsed
by ex-Postmaster General Bissell in two
annual reports. Congressman Linton,
Congressman Henderson, chairman OF
the committee on postoffices and post
roads in the last congress, and many
other friends of the clerks and carriers
advised the representatives of the latter
to pool their issue, to have their claims
embodied in one bill. which would receive
their united support in the next congress
The proposition will be acted upon at the
Forthcoming convention of different postal
employees.
THAT postal employees should conspire
to demoralize the service in which they
are employed is preposterous and whether
the omnibus bills shall be introduced in
congress with their consent cannot be
known until after the conventions referred
to are held Postal employees in the flu
ture. rs in the past. relying on the justice
of their claim. will respectfully and per
sistently petition congress. They know
as most people should know. that but lit
tie legislation is enacted simply on It's
merits. If. in exercising this right OF
petition, they are engaged in conspiracy
then it can he said that they have beer
so occupied in years gone by in securing
the eight hour and other laws.

The new plan of baling cotton that
has been inaugurated in Texas is exciting
interest and favorable comment. The
old and clumsy bale that has been in use
time out of mind is subject to considera-
BILE waste and loss that finally comes
back on the planter. The feature of the
new system is the cylindrical form of
the bale. BY this system the lint cot
ton is taken as it comes from the gin
and is wound on spindle in thin and
continuous layers under heavy pressure,
which produces cylindrical bale of n
much greater density than is obtainable
by the present methods. This new style
of bale is covered with a strong wrap
ping made from coarse cotton in place
of the coarse jute bagging now used.
A 500-pound bale of cotton ordinarily
occupies about 90 cubic feet of space,
but cylindrical bale of the same
weight occupies only Is cubic feet, which
means large saving in transportation.
1t is also claimed that the delicate fibre
of the cotton is injured less by rolling
into a compact cylinder than by crush
ing into fiat bale.

MINISTER THURSTON

Washington, March 21.-Although Mr..
Thurston, the Hawaiian minister refuses
to discuss the causes that led to his es-
arrangement with Secretary Gresham, it
is only fair to him to refute the statement
that he has betrayed diplomatic secrets.
Admitting that he has done as reported,
his friends assert that he did not exceed
his diplomatic authority in the matter
of the Hawaiian military court. The pro-
ceedings of the court were conducted
openly and the sentences of the prisoners
had been publicly announced in Hawaii
and all the facts reached San Francisco
by the first mail steamer from the island.
Mr.. Thurston's friends say he has never
abused official confidence nor betrayed
official communication contained in the
correspondence between his government
and himself or the government of the
United States or of its representatives.
1t is admitted that it would have been n
manifest improperly for him to have
divulged any information received from
the secretary of state touching the re-
lations between Hawaii and the United
Staes. At the same time it is claimed
for him that he was perfectly free to pub
fish any information he desired in regard
to movements in the Hawaiian republic
that came into his possession entirely
independent of the state department, pro-
yided he did not comment upon the action
of the United States government in regard
thereto.
The suggestion is made here that Mr..
Thurston's intimate knowledge of affairs
both in this country and in Hawaii will
lead to his having prominent connection
with any commission on the part of
Hawaii to negotiate for terms of admis-
sion to the Union.

SUPERVISING ARCHITECT.

Washington, March 21.-The secretary
of the treasury has appointed William
Martin Aiken of Cincinnati as supervising
architect of the treasury, vice O'Rourke,
resigned Some months ago a complete
reorganization of the department was
effected by which the supervising archi-
tect is relieved of all administration of
other duties save that pertaining to archi-
tectural work. The assistant architect
now passes upon all questions of material
and he alone formulates all contracts and
has general supervision of the work. The
general administration of the Office and
the appointment of draughtsmen and
clerks are now under his exclusive control,
being alone responsible to the secretary
of the treasury. The salary attached to
the office of supervising architect is $500
per annum. Mr.. Aiken is native of
Charleston, S. c., and is about 40 years
old. He is a member of the American
Institute of Architects. He is Demo-
crat and nephew of eX-Representativc
d. d, Aiken of South Carolina.

A KNOTTY PROBLEM.

Washington, March 21.-The treasury
officials are informed of the recent arrival
in New York of about 100 diamond cutters
from Amsterdam. Under the decisions
of the department when they sailed they
were entitled to enter the United States
under contract to engage in diamond cut
ting, which up to very recently was held
to be new industry in this country.
Within q short time after their arrival,
however, the practice of the department
was changed, Secretary Carlisle having
decided that diamond cutting was not a
new industry" within the meaning of
the immigration laws. This decision has
been appealed from to the courts and the
question now arises, what course shall
be pursued with the new arrivals, pend.
ing decision of the question by the
courts?" Secretary Carlisle will probably
make decision in the matter tomorrow.

That is n curious statement of the
chairman of the New England committee
that came South to examine, as it was
thought, into the conditions here to
manufacture cotton. He says their pur-
pose is ito establish in Massachusetts
the same conditions that prevail here"
A yankee will try to do most anything,
but il this committee succeeds in chang
ing the climate and soil Of Massachusetts
to the anne conditions that exist in the
South it will be the most wonderful of
discoveries or inventions. We are little
apprehensive that they intend to rob us
of our climate and soil.

INCOME TAX QUESTION.

Washington, March PA question of
some interest is likely to arise in connec-
ton with the collection of the income tax
from judges of the United States courts.
Some days ago Judge Hughes of the
Eastern judicial district came to Wash
ington and, discussing the income tax,
said he had already made his return but
was exceedingly brief. He had simply
stated that he had no income other than
his salary as judge, which was exempt
from the tax. The supreme court has
held that the imposition of a tax upon
the office of president of the United
States and the judges of the supreme
and inferior courts of the United States
is n diminution of the salary within the
meaning of the constitution, if the act
of levying the tax was enacted during
the official term of the president or OF
judges affected thereby. If the decision
remains undisturbed all United States
judges, of which there are about 800, will
be exempt from the income tax.
