DecadenCe of Our Judiciary.
F. D. CULVER.

our subject can truthfully be
thus designated. The orr ginal
purpose of organized society
was to protect the weak from
the encroachment of the strong,
but this policy during recent
years of national decadence has
PRACTICAL been reversed.
With all our boosted modern
progress and civilization it is
doubtful if there is not at the
present time greater percent
age of miscarriage of justice in
the administration of the law
than in the days of the motor
ious Lord Jeffreys. We deplore
the fact that there has been
ample cause to bring the noblest
of professions and chief arm of
government into disrepute with
the commonality of America.
However, the common pe0-
pie have themselves to blame
chiefly for this status.
They hold the elective fran
chise, the only supreme right
left them, and would they re-
alize that the commonest
laborer among "nature's noble
men" is the peer of any man,
in place of the prevalent obse-
quiousness and Difference to
plutocratic individual and cor
porate dictation, we would have
Legislators and Judges by and for
the people. No person or CO.
terie have a monopoly of know
ledge, legal or otherwise, al
though exceptional success,
usually resulting from toady-
ism and subservienCy to the
interests of capital, generally
results in elevation to legis1at-
i've and judicial station.
We are dominated by a money
oligarchy. Great is the power
of caste, supplemented by gold.
Through judicial nicromancy
we no longer have equality be-
fore the law, for rich and poor,
high and low alike.

Bradley, of the highest tribunal
of the land, revoked his written
decision in the electoral COM
mission, by reason of political
and Wall street pressure, there
by seating an ursurper in the
presidential chair that belonged
of right to Tilden.
Again, a member of our court
of last resort, reversed his de-
cisi0n in the celebrated Income
Tax case, no doubt through the
subtle and potent power of
Plutocracy, thereby defeating
justice and the express will of
the people.
The precedent of the motor
ious Debs injunction case is an
usurpation of the sole province
of the jury.
Judge Field holds his seat on
the supreme bench by virtue
of his being the plant tool of
the Pacific railway systems.
The recent murder of a COL
ored boy by the wealthy young
woman in Washington was
whitewashed by the trial judge
with a fine, imposed before
regular opening of court to
avoid contact of the "eite'
with the vulgar crowd.
A man in South Dakota got
fifteen years for house-break-
ing and stealing a silver watch
and another got eight years for
kicking his wife to death.
A boy stole a $25 pony and
got five years. State Treasurer
Taylor stole $4,000 and got
eighteen months.
1t is an expensive luxury to
steal a silver watch or horse,
but the nominal cost of steal
ing a state or kicking a woman
to death is within the reach of
all.
We have a struck jury sys-
tenn in this state, for the ex-
press use of corporations and
wealthy litigants, as no poor
person could afford the expense
and is content with the regular
panel. OF course the justice
melted out generally depends
on how hard the jury is struck.
No doubt it is unconstitutional,
but we have judicial takers in
our own supreme court, and the
powers that be usually get what
they want.

LANDON .NONsUITED.
Tho Case for Damages Against the Tai
liant Banking Company Suddenly
Terminated.

The case of Gardner Landon against the
TalIant Banking Company to recover big
damages for alleged malicious persecution
was nonsuited yesterday morning. and SO
brought to an abrupt termination.
The plaintiffs case was concluded
shortly before noon by the introduction of
a number of character witnesses.
When Mr.. Monteith announced that he
would rest, w. w. Foote moved for nom
suit. which was briefly argued by his as
sociate, Mr.. Pringle. The grounds stated
were that no malicious intent had been
shown; that the indictments by the Grand
Jury had been secured upon advice of the
District Attorney, and the testimony of
the plaintiff had shown that there was
probable cause for the indictments.
Mr.. Monteith argued at great length
that no probable cause had been shown;
that the notes upon which the indict-
ments had been secured were mere prom
issory notes. which the bank itself took
the entire responsibility in discounting.
He laid great stress on the importance of
the suit to the plaintiff, over whom the
stigma of an indictment had been cast by
the defendant, with no opportunity
afforded him to clear himself.
Upon the conclusion of the argument
the court granted the nonsuit and the
jury was discharged.

to have had a much more marked effect than
in any of the previous experiments.
Some of the most interesting experiments
were repeated with another tube, having
platinum ldisk in between the anode and ca
thode. The cathode slide of the platinum disk
seemed to still be the best source of the Roent-
gen rays, while the reverse side gave Ivery
few. showing clearly that the platinum is
much more Opaque than aluminium. just as
has been shown by many others in the ordi-
nary way.
The result of the experiments so far seems to
indicate the following as regards the true
source of the Roentgen rays:
Cathode rays positively electrify any
solid upon which they impinHe, prob
ably by carrying electrified particles to
the solid. The source Of the RoentRen
rays, then, is the solid upon which the
cathode ray first strikes and gives up
or partially gives up It's negative charge.
A second solid behind the first may be
n source of ROentgen rays II the first
solid does not take up the entire Mega
tive charge from tho cathode ray.
One of the old experiments with Crookes
tubes is that if the shape of the cathode is such
that the cathode rays focus on any solid, such
as platinum plate, the plate is made hot, and
if the side of the glass tube is thus exposed it
melted. If a metal is used as the solid to
receive the cathode rays the number and
intensity of Roentgen rays emanating there
from are much greater than if that solid is
glass. Aluminium is particularly fitted for
such purposes, as it is very transparent to the
Roentgen rays By focusing the cathode rays
on such an aluminium disk the maximum
effort would be produced and indicates how
best to make Crookes tube for experiments
in Roentgen photography.
The Roentgen rays may therefore proceed
from the anode, the fiorescent glass, discon-
nected terminal or a grounded terminal pro-
vided the shape of the tube and the relative
positions of the electrodes be such that the
cathode rays impinge on the anode, glass. dis
connected or grounded terminal respectively.
That the anode, because it is the anode. may
be the source of the Roentgen rays is probable

in the tube and about 1-2O of an inch in
diameter) was the source of the rays. That the
anodes themselves could not be the source of
all the rays was shown by the indistinct shad.
ows of the nails, indicating that some of the
rays came from larger area than the surface
of the thin wire anodes.
We next made the two end electrodes, the
cathodes and the metal disk in the center of
the anode. Radiographs were taken which
show that the source of the rays was the center
OF the metal disk anode, the remainder of the
anode, the cathodes and the f1orescent glass
having no practical effect. Since the cathode
rays from the fine wire cathodes impinged on
the anode in the center and in point, it
seemed that the mere fact of cathode rays
striking solid made that solid a source of
Roentgen rays.
Another tube was then tried. 1t is shown in
figure l and was used by us in connection
with f. r. Drew, instructor in the physics de-
partment, in some experiments which were
carried on in our electrical engineering lab
oratory during February. The aluminium
Maltese cross is hinged so that it may be
thrown down out of the way, or made to stand
upright, so that when the small circular disk
on the small end of the tube is the cathode,
the shadow of the cross is cast on the large
end of the tube, the glass being made bril-
liantly 1orescent except on the shaded por
ton.
In the first experiment with this tube the
aluminium cross in the center was made the
anode and the small circular disk the cathode.
The cross was made to stand in such position
that it received directly the cathode rays. The
shadow of the cross was of course cast on the
glass end of the tube. Radiographs were then
made, plates five by seven in size being placed
about 2l2 inches from the ends of the tube,
one plate at each end shown in figure l.
The result showed that the forescent glass at
the ends of the tube ,ods source of the rays,
but whether the aluminium cross in the center
gave off Roentgen rays could not definitely be
decided.

result WAS a very clearly defined negative. The

JOHN LEES LECTURE.
Marriage Now and as It Will Be
When the State IL So
cialized,

The lecture delivered by John Lee un-
der the auspices of the Liberty Branch OF
the San Francisco section of the Socialist
party at lis Turk street last evening was
fairly well attended. The subject of the
lecture was Marriage Now and Marriage
Under Socialism"
"When women give their hands to men
simply for home and food" he said, sit
is bargain pure and simple and interferes
with the law of natural selection. Under
socialism women would be as self-support-
ing as men. and this would be entirely un-
necessary. If there is any virtue in woman
suffrage it is because intelligent women
realize that their highest interest and well
fare lie in being seIf-supporting.
"How can woman who is a slave bring
anything into existence but slave? The
importance of socialism lies mainly in
as well as tearer-down. Well-dressed
ministers OF the gospel, dressed in purple
and fine linen, listen to the grand anthems
sung by full choirs, step forward and read
from gilt-edged Bibles the word of life,
and tell us how to be good. These worthy
gentlemen, however, forget that full
stomach and warmly clothed back are
than gnawing pain in the region of
the stomach, and back which fails to get
into that particular current Of wind re-
served for the shorn lamb. They expect
US to sit on the edge of the stove that
Huntington would't steal and sing Praise
God from whom all blessings fow.'"
Next Wednesday evening there will be a
on the following subject: Resolved. That
the Populist party in the United States
has the most practical platform for the
people.
