that a better man for that position
could be found IN Idaho. At all
times the Judge has maintained the
dignity of his high Office, rising
above party, rendering decisions he
believed to be right regardless Of
the station, creed or political belief
of the litigants. We do not say
that the Judge is infallible, but we
do believe that every decision that
he has rendered has met the approv-
al of his own conscience.
Nof only nave the Republicans of
this district appreciated him, but
the Democrats are ready to indorse
him. And tha: Is right. There is
strong public sentiment in favor
of the removal of the judiciary from
politics and retaining a Judge in
Office during good behavior.
Whether the Office should be ap-
pointive or elective, however, is a
question. But no matter what way
they are inductcd into Office they
ought to serve during good be-
havior. The purity and independ-
ence Of the Judiciary are absolutely
essential to the states welfare. 1t
is OF no avail to have just and equal
laws if they are not justly and
equally interpreted, applied and en-
forced. X = y
Judge Bulge is entitled to re-
nomination, and is not only entitled
to it, but the people of this judicial
district, regardless of party affilia-
tlons, desire it Malad Enterprise.

A Genuine Surprise.

Last Friday evening large
crowd of enthusiastic admirers of
Rev. s. F. Weiland, pastor of the
Holy Trinity church having made
all preparations before hand,
assembled at certain rendeozvus
and marched to the school build
ing adjoining the parsonage and
taking possession apprised the
Reverend gentleman of their pres
ence and also of their object in
in coming viz: to assist him in
celebrating this his 37th anniver-
sary of his ordination to the priest
hood. The Father was surprised
that was plain to be seen; but in
few moments he recovered his self
control and gave the callers a
hearty welcome and bade them en-
joy themselves to the utmost which
they certainly did. The self invit-
ed guests did not think the enter
tainment complete without some
soul stirring music when messen-
gers were sent out for the Extra
Cornet band which was soon on
the ground discoursing music that
called forth salvos of praise and
none more sincere than from the
Father himself. The party was
made up not only of members of
the Catholic church but of other
denomination and non profess.
ors which shows the esteem in
which he is held in the community.
Oysters, cake and coffee served
bounteously formed the menu.
During the evening Father Wei
land was called to the front and
Wyllyam E. Brinkerhoff as spokes-
man for the party in few; but we'll
choosen words presented him with
grand leather back and seat,
genuine oak rocker which was ac-
cepted with many thanks in a
speech which gave an epitome OF
his church work from his ordina-
tion to the present time.

SU. .. lOOO.
Mr.. John F. Stockman,
Hamilton Center, Iowa.
Dear Sir; We have
your letter of the 1st in which you
argue with some warmth for the
course taken by yourself and others
in patronizing the mail order houses.
No, we can't see the matter in
just the light that you do. Of
course you are free moral agent,
and can spend your money where
you please, just as you say. No
one, we think, would question your
RIGHT in this regard Yet, strange
as it may seem, there is really a
moral limitation to this privilege.
For example, let us consider the
miser, who boards and hides away
his gold. We would agree Of course
in considering him a menace to
society and a ''cumberer of the
ground" He is, and rightly too,
man without friend. But why?
He is industrious, and frugal, and
he may be honest. Then why
should he be considered an enemy
to mankind?
Mark you the answer! He is
LEIGH in the commercial world.
He is a PARASITE that draws the
lifeblood from human society and
gives nothing in return. Yet-and
here we must tread softly-which
Injuries his neighbor more deeply, he
who merely buries his money,
whence it may one day be recovered
and sent forth to bless mankind, or
he who deliberately sends his money
out of the community whence it
can not be recovered and shall never
return? You and those who believe
as you do are now actually with
drawing from circulation and send
ing out of our midst A MILLION
DOLLARS A DAY to a bourne
whence it shall come back to us
again NEVERMORE.
There are other phases of the
crime that are more serious and of
even greater moment than this. At
another time you will hear from us
further.
Sincerely yours,
THE JOURNAL.
