PARTISAN JUDGES.

Ex-President Harrison recently ad-
dressed the Indiana Bar Association and
he strongly deprecated the election Of
judges because of their political leanings.
He said: 81 hold that it is unworthy to
vote for man simply because he is Of this
party or that party, il in SO doing you vote
for the less worthy or less competent
man." 1t is quite evident that the ex-
president doesn't agree with the Rhode
Island way, although in saying this we
do not mean to reflect on any OF our
judges. We simply call attention to the
matter and just wonder what the average
Rhode Islander, who has been accustomed
to our way of doing things, would think
IL our General Assembly would kick of
the traces once and elect one Democrat TO
the bench out OF the seven judges that our
law provides for. What would they think
IL it even elected clerk of district court
who was not true blue Republican,?

When it is known that the Rev. DIR.
David HI. Greer of st. Bartholomew's
Church, New York, who was last week
elected bishop coadjutor, of the Rhode
Island diocese has some hesitancy about
accepting the position because the vote
cast was Of just the requisite number, 1t
will also be known that there are clergymen
who care not for political preferment and
congregations that are thus thrice blessed

The big bicycle combine has taken
header of good sized dimensions. Apropos
to the reduction 1t can be stated that the
com bine which heretofore has been very
solid, was broken as result of competi-
ton. When the cost of the manufacture
of their bicycles is taken into consideration
and the selling price heretofore obtained
is noted, some idea of the enormous profit
received as a result of the combine can be
uaipod

The science of advertising is!illustrated
by an exchange that permits one of its
patrons to say: ''To celebrate the 4th of
July in good shape you should wear one
of our 5Oc bicycle hose" How, which,
where? Why only one hose? The advice
seems to be kindly given and patriotically
intended; why the restrictions?

The Attleboro Sun is of the opinion that
the sound of bicycle bell is not legal
cause for changing ones intended direc-

will be endorsed; there are those who have
neither wheels or flying machines and
their days are dreadful.

The hot weather is having its effect on

ALASKA STEAMER LIBELED.
The Passengers Objected to Their
Freight Being Left Behind.

Seattle, Aug. 1S.-The steamer Hum
boldt, which was to have sailed yes
terday for st. Michaels. Alaska, with
$50 passengers and 400 tons of freight
destined for Dawson City, is in the
hands of a United States deputy mar
shall When the boat was about to
sail the passengers discovered that
large amount of their freight was to
be left on the dock. They asked May
or Wood, of Seattle, who is manager
of the boat, to explain The mayor
said that those who left provisions
would be properly cared for and that
the goods would be shipped on the
next boat.
This did not suit the passengers. Ar
thur Seymour, of Haverhill, Mass,
made a speech demanding that the
rights of those who had paid for tick
cts and freight be conserved. Incl
dentally, he said that he supposed
there were those in the crowd who
would like to hang the mayor. His
words had an explosive effect, but he
managed to restore order, and a COM
nittee was appointed to adjust mat
tcrs. AT this point it was announced
that John Galivan, of Spokane, had
libeled the steamer. Matters bid fair
to be settled so that the steamer may
get away today.
