WhyIt was Done.

An impeachment suit was filed
with the clerk of the district court
by Louis Fig against County Attor-
neyssN. II. Clark. The charge in
the complaint being that he CON
spired to obtain a raise of his salary
of 5000 per year to s, 1000 per year.
Mr.. Clark says he was county at
torney when the salary was raised
and that friendly appeal to the
district court is already pending,
instituted by himself, to have the
matter of salary permanently ad
justed by that court. Mr.. CLARK
thinks the case is brought for two
purposes, one to obtain, if possible
the reward of $500 allowed by Law
to an informer in cases for impeach
ment; and, second, spite work fol
recent prosecution of Mr.. Fig.

Convenient Distinction.

The only conclusion that seemed
common to all, or nearly all of the
members of the late Peace confer
ence convened at the Hague, was
that it is wise in all cases of nation
al disagreement where the means of
offense and defense are nearly equal,
to refer the matter to arbitration.
This excellent arrangement, how.
ever, does not seem to include Flip

other races whose rights are only
regarded in proportion to their abili
ty to defend them. "Why do you
