COURT DECISIONS OF JUDGE PARKER
Some Opinions of New York rist Which Circumstances a,
Rendered of National Significance.

Judge Alton Brooks Parker since
Jan. l, 1898, has been chief Judge of
the New York court of appeals, the
highest court of the state He was a
judge Of the supreme court in 1855
appointed a member of the court of
appeals, second division. and filled this
position from 1889 TO 1893; was mem
Der of the general term. 1895. and
Of the appellate division in 1867
Judge Parker was born in 1852, and
from the time he was 33 years old.
he has always occupied u judicial po-
sition, progressing from one court to
another until he reached the top i'll
his forty sixth year.
Judge Parker'S decisions as chief
justice of sthc court of appeals run
through the last - volumes of the
New York reports, and his friends and
admirers point to them as models of
judicial learning. profound knowledge
and SOUND logic. While there are no
Dartmouth college cases" that can be
cited as the leading opponents of great
constitutional principles. they are lu-
cid and read easily. Judge Parker
has six associates on the court of alp
pcals bench. and he has in many i'm
portant cases been in the minority,
filing vigorous dissenting opinions.
In 1897 the New York legislature
passed what is known as the Labor
law" which was in general effect a
codificatiOn of the salient features of
30 laws enacted at various times from
1870. 1t defines legal days work;
regulates the wages on public works.
the number of hours that constitute
a days work in various industries
and the method OF paying wages to
employees in certain cmplOymCnts; it
provides for the preference in employ
ment of certain persons in public
works; it recognizes and protects la
bells, brands and devices used by
labor organizations: it has provisions
for the safety and comfort of employ
es in factories and on buildings in
cities.

I'm LOOMS HANDS
Assistant Secretary of State to Des
With Colombian Asphalt
Seizure.
PERSONAL MATTER WITH HIM
United States Will Claim Right to Re
view Decision of the
Court.

Washington, Aug. Title seizure of
mudez Asphalt company on the order
of President Castro is considered by
the administration a much more seri-
Gus affair than the officials impart for
public consideration.
One OF the curiositiCS OF the situa-
ton is that the present assistant and
acting secretary of state, F. Il. Loomis.
was minister to Venezuela when the
asphalt war became acute, and it was
reported that his recall was demanded
by President Castro.
Mr.. LOOmis now is the power that
will take action for or AGAINST Castro.
and there is no official in the United
States or elsewhere, perhaps. who
knows more abo"t the asphalt contro-
versy than Mr. Loomis.
Part OF Course Decided.
The state department has already
decided half of the action it must take.
1t Will abide by it's former decision
namely. that it has the right to review
the action of the court on which Pres
ident Castro acted.
The state department legal authori-
ties say that if they find the decision
was a defeat of Justice the United
States will go behind the court
If the state department should de
clare TO Castro that his court erred.
the demands OF the United States can
only be of two llinds-onc for the res
titutiOn of the property or the alter
native of an indemnity.

to vote any Of it away. Our forefa-
theirs fought thru the Revolution
ary war to gain liberty for us and
we don't think we would do
our duty to their memory by
voting any Of it away; so, as the
great American orator once said:
"Give us liberty or DEATH"
We also noticed in THE Press an
article headed Keep Sweet and
Vote Dry" We will say keep
sweet and vote wet. God made
man free moral agent, and placed
good and evil before him that he
may choose between the two. Now
if the good, or evil, is taken away
there is only one part left and man
is no more free moral agent Of
God; therefore it is not right to put
anything out Of existence that God
has made. l suppose you "dry"
people will say God never made
whiskey, and we will say God never
made biscuits.
We hope the brother who said
"keep sweet and vote dry" and
who also cautioned the preachers
that might be called fools, to "keep
cool" =" will not get so hot himself
as to call other preachers. who have
the same right he has, "thick-head-
ed and blind" because they believe
opposite from him.
We will close with best wishes to
