EMPORIUM, PA. THURSDAY MAY 5, 1904.

Associate Judge is a "free horse" in the
acknowledgement of deeds, mortgages,
leases and the like.
Under the new replevin act of 1908,
P. L., 40 and Al, the duties of an AS
sociate Judge are quite important. 1t
provides the Court or Judge thereof,
at chambers in vacation may allow and
grant longer time than 70 hours in
which to file and perfect counter
bond by the defendant, and End, the
Judge may on motion increase the
plaintiffs bond, and alter the amount
ofbail if he considers it insufficient, etc.
These are only some of the numer-
GUS powers of an Associate Judge in
vacation. His duties on the bench are
of minor importance as compared with
those in vacation, such as advising the
President Judge of petitians for roads,
election places, liquor licenses, ap-
pointment of township officers, to fill
vacancies and other minor matters,
merely advisory.
While the Associate Judge is hotgen-
orally learned in the law, in questions
of doubt in vacation he can always con-
suit an Amicus Curia, or friend of the
Court, who is some lawyer not inter-
ested in the case, who freely and cheer
fully advises him and does not dare to
give him false counsel.
The above is not written at random,
but is the result of careful research, as
stated, SO that the people generally
might understand their servants, the
Associate Judges, and what value they
are to them.

A Chracter Sketch of Senator Quay

Cnracter Sketch OF Senator Quay
Matthew Stanley Quay, senior Sena
tor from Pennsylvania, is the subject
of a frank and brilliant character sketch
in the May number of The Booklovers
Magazine. 1t is written by Mr.. Joseph
M. Rogers, the leading editorial writer
of the Philadelphia Inquirer. Through
his intimate knowledge of national
politics and his close touch with the
politics of Pennsylvania, Mr.. Rogers is
unusually well qualified to write of the
asture politician whom he describes as
" cross between the Egyptian Sphinx
and stroke of creased lightning"
In the article Mr.. Rogers has read the
riddle of Pennsylvania political
sphinx. At least he has put two and
two together in such convincing way
that the total is very close to four! Mr..
Quay is characterized as "a consistent
and persistent opportunist." That he
has for SO long kept in the saddle is
due, rot to his affiliations with the cor
porations, but to the fact that che has
looked after his state and has given
people what they want, though not what
some estimable and ultra reformers
think they ought to want" Thus it
has come about that man currently
held to be utterly unscrupulous "main-
tains his hold upon rural constit-
uency which is morally honest and
God Hearing" The whole sketch of
Quay is full of telling points, caustic
and humorous, and is written with all
of Mr.. Rogers skill! in narration and his
singular ability to illuminate his sub
ject with apt illustration and anecdote.
Every Pennsylvania should get hold
of the May number of The Booklovers
Magazine and read this keen analysis
of the chief political force in his State.

In our last issue we made mention

The car is a kindly, saddened, over
