MOODY ON TINE nHHcm.

The confirmation of Secretary
Moody, whom the president has ap-
pointed one OF the judges OF the SUI
preme court, is OF wide-Ieaching po-
lltical Importance. Moody Is a
Roosevelt republican, progressive
statesman, Who has taken the part
Of the administration IN Its most rad
ical efforts to extend the power OF
the interstate commerce commission
10 iimit the t,pcentration and en-
croachments Of capital and to pun
ish vioIztsfa Of the TREAT laws.
Such man on the supreme bench Of
the United States will WELD a large
influence. His predecessor was q
conservative, while Moody may be
ranked as one OF the most positive Of
the radicals.
The particular encouragement that
Moody's appointment to the bench
can give to the people Of the United
States Is the hope that II will mean
an income tax law. When popular
pressure shall become SO great as to
force congress to pass an income tax
law we may now reasonably hope
that the supreme court will hold IL
good. The former decision against
Its validity was by majority of only
one. That one Ii nov eliminated,
and u man OF popular and progressive
sympathies substituted.
with Moody on the bench, unless
there has been some other change,
an Income tax Law should receive the
approval OF the supreme court as now
constituted.

1t is claimed that this system has
fully determined to build from a
junction sixty miles from Lander,
northwest TO st. Anthony, and from
there to Salmon is a very easy route,
opening up new territory, which
presents no difficulties In railroad
building, when mountainous coun-
try Is considered. Most of the route
from here to st. Anthony would
either open up an agricultural or a
mining country. We do not believe
1t Is over estimated when 1t Is said
that the Gilmore mining country In
Guiding Spring Mountain, and juno
tion and other mineral zones which
would be opened up, would furnish a
train load of mineral day. This
one item alone would pay the run
ming expenses of good many miles
OF the system. When 1t Is consid-
cred that there are large number Of
copper propositions In the hills adj
jacent to Salmon, which could and
would be worked at profit If we
had cheaper transportation, 1t Is evil
dent that the freight traffic would be
something wonderful. We are firmly
OF the opinion that the men who
were here last fall looking the coun-
try over, securing data, the probable
tonnage, ETC., were representatives Of
the Northwestern interests.

PRESIDENT QUITS CLASS
Juniors at High School Refuse to Obey

siding Officer, and he Surrcnders
Job.

Rebellion in mild though in inter.
esting form, has broken out in the
Junior class at the Richmond High
School and instead of class feeling be-
ing directed against lower or upper
bodies of students, the dissensions
are internal and promise interesting
before the white flag of
peace has been hoisted. At the cleo
tion of president recently, Howard
Reed. a popular student, was the recip
lent of the honor. Being a member
of the first term Junior division, the
second term division, 1T is said, has
not, as a whole. displayed the loyalty
that the class president expected. On
Tuesday evening at meeting of the
President Reed took up his
station and raped for order, but ac-
cording to the report of the session
the response was of disorderly ma
ture President Reed realized that a
rupture in the class had taken place
and he withdrew from the meeting. He
has declined to call another session u1l
til convinced that the class will unite
in its support of his leadership.

D|PHTHER|A AT LIBERTY
EPIDEMIC is ALARMING
Churches, Schools, Lodges and all
Public Gathering Places are Closed
in Hope of Preventing the Spread
of Disease.

Liberty, just sixteen miles south of
Richmond, is now trying to control an
epidemic of diphtheria and the most
drastic measures are being taken to
accomplish that end. Although but
one case of the dreaded disease has
appeared directly in the city, and that
was yesterday, when Mary Farley.
who is employe dat the telephone of
flee was taken sick, there are a num-
Der of cases in the immediate vicini
ty and many Liberty people have been
exposed to the contagion. At Good
wins Corner, near Liberty, there are
already six cases.
In order to prevent the spread of
the disease in the city, the schools
have been closed, no church was held
Sunday, no lodge meetings are held
and a funeral held yesterday was
strictly private. A stock company
which had been engaged to play for
week at the theater, was forced to can
Gel its engagement.

HOUSE OPPOSED TO
THE NU SPELLING
But Nick LongWorth and a
Few Faithful Remain True
to the President.
DECISIVE ACTION TAKEN
NO APPROPRIATION SHALL BE
MADE FOR PUBLIC PRINTING
UNLESS THE GOOD OLD STYLE
is USED.
IPublishers. Press


Washington, Dec. 12.-The House
today went on record as opposed to
the system of simplified spelling as
ordered by the President. Only Nick
Longworth, the Presidents son-in-law,
and a few faithful ones, such as Re-
publican Floor Leader Payne in all
% stood by the President.
Mr.. Crumpacker (Rep., Ind) knock
ed out in the legislative appropria-
tion bill, under consideration through
out the day, providing that the old
style of spelling shall be followed in
printing, on the point of order that
it was new legislation. Then Mr.
Bingham, (Rep., Pa, in charge of
the bill introduced a more stringent
clause which was adopted by vote
of 142 to %.
Under the clause no appropriation
for the government printing office
shall be used in printing a document,
provided for by law, or for Congress,
unless it be spelled according to rec
ognized authority.
An unsuccessful attack was made
on the proposed increase in the salary
of the public printer Stillings from
$4,000 to $4,000.
The item providing for an increase
in the salary of clerks representa-
tives from 1,20O to $500 per an
mum was adopted.

CONCERT FOR Y. M. C. A.
High School Orchestra and Ladies'
Chorus Plan Entertainment to
be Given in February.

The High School Orchestra and La
dies Chorus have decided to give a
concert for the benefit of the Y. NJ. G..
A building fund. There will be sew
eral separate numbers by the orches-
ira and the chorus, and in addition to
this there will be two or three num-
bers of the chorus with the orchestra
accompaniment. The orchestration
of this music is being written by
Prof. Earheart now and will be some
thing entirely new.
The two organizations think that
this is the best way they have of help
ing the cause that we are needing SO
much. They are working very hard
on this music although the concert
is not to be given until sometime in
February. The faculty and students
at large are wholly in sympathy with
these two organizations and have
pledged their word to help them as
much as they possibly can.

ADMISSION OF PERJURY REBELLION IN MILD FORM
SHARKITT SENT TO JAIL
Younsster Secured Liquor from Oak

Them that He Was Twcnty-Onc
Years of Age.

In the city court yesterday, Walter
Sharkitt, a minor, who was arrested
for giving Intoxicating liquors to Earl
Taylor. a fourteen-year-old boy, plead
guilty when arraigned before Judge
Converse. Sharkitt, however. made
the contention that he had not pur-
chased the whiskey, but had found a
bottle filled with it, and it was from
this bottle that young Taylor had
drank. Judge Converse was confident
that Sharkitt was not telling the truth
about the transaction and fined him
$40 and costs. Later Sharkitt admit
ted that he had purchased the whis-
key at the Oakland Wine Company's
place of business on Main street near
Fifth and had only been enabled to OBJ
tain the liquor by declaring that he
was twenty-one years of age. Upon
this admission, Sharl1itt was given a
severe lecture by both Judge Con-
verse and Prosecutor Jessup.
