There is a movement on foot TO have the
salaries of the supreme court justices of
Manhattan increased from the present
stipend OF 1880 a year to $4,000. The
prime cause Of the move is TO prevent the
high-standard incumbents of the bench
from being weaned away by corporations
able to pay $4,000 or more a year for the
brains they need. Among the men who
have left the supreme court bench OF re-
cent years are Morgan ]. o'Brien and Jus

OBrien was guaranteed $500 year when

We have had great many nice
things said about our write-up of
the old Water Mill last week, all OF
which in our earnest endeavor to
give our readers the very best coun-
ty paper, we appreciate. The follow
ing, coming from a former editor of

ed.
Editors Republican, | note with
interest your cut and write-up of an
old home landmark, in the current
issue of your paper. This Is move
in the right direction. Local news is
the meat. bread and butter of local

terial for century to come, along
the lines of your mill touch-up, and

HEAVRIN APPOINTED
POSTMASTER HERE.
Will Succeed Woodbury. TinSley
About the First of Next
Month.

NJ. l.. Heavrin has been appointed
Postmaster for Hartford, and will
probably receive his commission in
time to assume charge the first of
next month. Mr.. Heavrin is desery-
ing Republican and well qualified
for the position. We understand he
will give his entire time to the duties
of the office, but we are not advised
as to who will be selected for the two
clerkships.
The retiring Postmaster, Mr.. Wood
bury Tinsley, has held the office al
most ten years, and goes out of office
with a record of which he may well
be proud. He is respected and loved
by every man, woman and child in
Hartford, regardless of politics or re-
ligious creed. He has given the pat
rons of the office a splendid and sat
isfactory administration, and no fault
has ever been found with him by the
department at Washington. He has
also been fortunate in the selection
of his assistants. All of them have
been satisfactory to the public. Misses
Henrietta Gunther and Edith Carson,
his present clerks, are absolutely per-
feet in discharge of their duties to
the government and in their kind and
considerate treatment of the patrons
at all times. While Mr.. Tinsley has
always been an ardent Republican and
has rendered party service of the
most valuable character, yet his ge-
NAL disposition and consideration
for the rights of those who differ
with him,hav made him respected
and admired by Democrats and Re-
publicans alike.
We congratulate Mr., Heavrin upon
his appointment, and wish for him as
satisfactory administration, to gov
ernment and people. as has been en-
joyed by the present encumbent.

answers last Monday in the libel
suits, two in number, now pending in

These suits were filed March %, 1906,
by Messrs. J. NJ. DeWeese and e. NJ.
Woodward, for alleged libelous arti-
cles published in the Messenger con-
corning them in connection with the
suicide of Miss Prudie Ford, the beau
tiful school girl who drowned herself
in Rough river March %. 1906.
The documents are quite bulky,
containing eighteen pages of typewrit-
ten matter and set out in detail it's
various publications in connection
with the unfortunate tragedy. 1t de-
MES that any of the articles were pub
lished with libelous intent or desire
to do plaintiffs injury, or that any
libel resulted therefrom which, of
course, are questions for trial juries

following reference to the Messenger S
editorial comment, but for which the
suits would not have been brought:
The editorial of March 20, 1906,co
planned of in the petition, was writ

editor and owner of the greensboro
Messenger 1t was written in good
faith and without any purpose what
ever to do plaintiff the slightest in
justice. The said editorial was not
directed at, and had no reference to,
plaintiff. Mr.. Woodson. who wrote
the editorial, had been absent from
the city of Owensboro, and the State
of Kentucky, for a number of days
pryor to March 25,and only returned,
on the night of March oath. He had
no personal information as to the
facts connected with the suicide OF
Miss Ford, and relied III good faith
on what had been published, and be-
lieved said publications were true. He
read the account of the death of Miss
Ford as previously detailed in the
Messenger, and believing them to be
true, he wrote the editorial complain
ed of He did not know,at the time
he wrote the editorial, that the genu
ineness of the original letters, had
ever been questioned.
The sole purpose of said editorial
was to condemn the uncharitableness
of the public in its criticisms in mat
tiers involving scandal. The editorial
was not intended TO apply, and does
not apply, to plaintiff, or any other
single individual, and in writing it de-
PENDANT did not have plaintiff in mind

reference to him. The object of the
editorial was to call public attention
to the fact that ii is mistake to
make charges against either men or
women involving their character, en-
cept as such charges We're sustained
by positive proof, and t. warn the
public that it ought not to attack

Newark Banged the Ball While Waterbury Chased It
 Niagara To-Morrow.

Maurice Reid let out few bar rels of hot air yesterday over the Reidville reservation and toned down the elements somewhat but the fans would not be coaxed out to that ice producing country to see the Newark barn stormers do the trick again to the Rough Riders, under command of old boy Nichols. Many of the To- calls were slow and had not had time to get the chill of the day before out of their systems. The Newarks on the other hand were quite nifty and they hammered the ball as if they were up against team fighting for championship honors. Bronkie, he who has been holding away from the golden opportunities offered him by Manager Durant, was on the fir ing line for the Rough Rideres for four innings and he simply tossed them over and saved his salary wing for that increase he is looking for. IO'DOnnell, long and lanky. was next in the box and he looked good and scared when he faced the visitors. He did well in the first inning, shutting the Newarks out, but in the next three they slashed that leather as If they had grudge against some of lthe stitches and O'Donnell looked worried. but smiled very sweetly on Frank Fitzpatrick, when the latter called the game at the end of the ieighth inning.
