Question:

The Judgeship-"An Important Publ,
Question"
Not alone ian important public ques-
tiop," but one the sovereign people Of
this Stale would ask the executive TO
answer, when rendering the account of
his stewardship.
BY the resignation Of the Hon. G. E.
Nicol, Judge Of the Sixteenth Judicial
Circuit, the Office became vacant.
On the 18th day Of March, 1907,
Governor Swanson appointed (or desig-
mated, it matters not by commission"
Judge L. @. Barley. Of the Corporation
Court, of Alexandra, Va, TO fill that
Office, and, under and by authority of
said commission, Judge Barley Is now
holding court at Fairfax, Va.
Under the constitution of Virginia,
article V. quot VI. }, sec. 70, the appoint
ing power Is given to the governor (the
legislature not being in SESSION. to Gil
this vacancy, but, surely, the constitu.
ton did not empower the governor to
issue 70 commission to Judge L. @. Bar
ley, nor any other Judge in Office, to fill
this vacancy. And why? Because
article W., sec. l05, Of this same con-
stilutlon Chat the governor, as we'll "a
the hGmblest citizen, must bow to and
obey reads "No judge shall hold any
other Office OF public trust during his
continuance in Office"
Why waste time, then, in dissertations
and discussions upon this or that statute
when the constitution of this State say 8
thou shalt, and thou shalt not? In other
words, no man under the constitution
shall be the judge Of the Corporation
Court and the Circuit Court at itbs
same time.
Judge Barley, under this conmission,
Is judge of the Sixteenth Judicial Cir
cult; and il be has resigned from the
Office of judge Of the Corporation Court
for the city Of Alexandra, Va, We
have not heard of it,
These being The facts, Il would seem
the Governor is in grave error snd the
people left In q state Of confusion worse
confounded; and but for the strong men
and statesmen Of this old Commonwealth
who, Ike the "Old Guard" are ever
on the "Qui Vive,"
Confusion would dwell In every face,
And feariD every heart. r.

Saws Salt Lake Line Is Not Bound as to
Rates,

Los Angeles, Jan. 6.-Discussing the testimony
before the Interstate Commerce Commission, in
New York, that Senator W. A. Clark, president
OF the San Pedro, Los Angeles & Salt Lake Rail-
road, had entered into forced agreement with
President E. H. Hartman, Of the Southern Pa
ciffo Company, to maintain the freight
rates as the Hartman lines for ninety-nine
years. j.. Ross Clark, second vice-president of
the Salt Lake line, and brother Of Senator Clark,
said tonight:
1t is unfair to say that we bound to OBJ
serve the rates as the Southern Pacific
The only agreement that has been made for a
period Of ninety-nine years is that the San
Pedro Los Angeles & Salt Lake Railway is to
have the Of the Oregon Short Line yards at
Salt Lake for that period of time on a per
cent basis. They must have twisted that part
Of the agreement in reporting the testimony
before the Interstate Commerce Commission
yesterday. As to freight rates. we have only an
interchangeable agreement such as might be
made with any railroad We have such an
agreement with the Santa E'e. 1t Is not writ
ten one as with the Hartman lines but In no
case are we bound to charge the same rates as
another road, such could be construed TO be
In restraint Of trade. -
