Field served thirty-four years, or until

Judge Field was not able, by reason Of

judges were overworked. Talking Of
the situation to friend, Justice Brown
said one day:

A New Prophet.

Attorney General Hadley of Missouri
figures much in the newspapers and
stands much in the limellght these
days. or all the Republican accidents
brought to the surface in Missouri by
the landslide of 1904 Hadley appears
to be OF the best stuff. Because of the
wide advertisement which he has re-
ceiVed In his tussle with Standard Oil
he was lately the principal orator at
the annual banquet of the Missouri So
ciety of New York. On that occasion
he turned prophet. and here IL his pre-
diction: Missouri is in the Republican
column to stay, at least til she
changes back" a perfectly safe utter
ance. In that sentence the qualifying
portion is the more important part
"at least till she changes back" Yeri-
ly, Attorney General Hadley has
great head. In gaming parlance there
is a performance known as 'hedging.n
Perhaps Brother liadley has heard of
that aud was practieing il. Perhaps he
is a natural horn wit aud could not re-
sist the temptation TO exercise that
faculty. At any rate, he hit the bulls
eye and no mistake. Missouri Is in
the Republican column TO stay, at least
till she changes back" That reminds
one OF the man who was boasting of
how well his dog obeyed him. To Illus
trate his theory he said TO the ca
nine, go outdoorsm whereupOn doggy
started TO go under the bed. Obsery-
ing that, the man added, "Or under
the bedp' thereby leaving himself IN
the position that the dog was thorough
ly obedient.
Nobody begrudges Mr.. Hadley the
reputation he has made In his chase
after Rockefeller. He is too sensible a
man 10 believe for one moment that
Missouri is Republican state. and per-
haps 1t was his own realization of an
impending Democratic victory In that
imperial commonwealth that he was
endeaYorlng TO convey TO MS auditors
