U. 8. JUDGES.

1t is high time that all Fed
eral Judges should be elected.
The Z. S. Judges to-day are all
controlled by the wealthy cor
porations and many of them in
the employ of these corpora
tlons. They hold for life and
do as they please. When Con
9ress tried to impeach one of
them a year or two ago and it
was shown that he had a special
car at his command, got valu.
able presents from the steel
trust and the sugar combine;
decided cases contrary to law
and evidence and ran things
generally with a high hand, the
republican majority dare not
put him out and he "came off
clear" Cleveland's appointees
to the Federal bench were all
corporation lawyers, and Roose-
velt's appointees are attorneys
for and share holders in the
very trusts that to-day control
the country. In order to sue.
cessfully resist the tyranny of
the most oppressive branch OF
our government-the Federal
Courts of the land, a little grit
and endurance must be shown.
Elect all court judges. reduce
sthe standing army, and smash
the trusts should be the battle
cry of democracy from this on.

FREE SEEDS READY
FOR DISTRIBUTION

1t will not be the fault of the hor-
ticultural commissioners or of Senator
Frank p. Flint if Los Angeles homes
are not supplied with vegetable gar
dens.

ceiVed from the United States depart
ment of agriculture at Washington a
consignment of vegetable seeds of high

.FIREMEN TO GET
PRIVATE FARR|ER
With a Portable Forge Department
Horseshoer Will Go from Engine
House to Engine House
Today

Upon request of Chief Lips. Secre-
tary Charles McKeag was yesterday
instructed to recommend to the city
council that the position of horseshoer
of the department be created at a
salary of 500 a month.
The an is to have a portable forge
with wagon so that the farrier can
go from engine house to engine house.
A fire horse will be led from place to
place also, so that 1t can take the
place of any horse while it Is being
shod. Thus none of the apparatus will
be out of service a moment because
of the shoeing, as is now the case.
One Of the arguments advanced is
that on April horseshoers raised the
rate from so to $3.50. This has been
the standard rate for the department,
as so cents extra was usually charged
so that the city horses could have the
right of way over others belonging to
private customers.
The saving, Chief Lips says, under
the new system will amount to thou
sands of dollars annually.
