New YOrk's Rulers.

NEW YORK, Oct 1. - Reuben r.
Lyon Of Bath, Steuben county, and
John T. McDonough OF Albany were
nominated for judges OF the court OF
appeals by the state convention Of the
Independence league at Carnegie hall
William Randolph Hearst presided.
Mr.. McDOnough was lndorsed for
the place by the State Federation Of
Worklngmen at its recent convention
In Syracuse. and labor men pressed
bis claim for the place upon Mr..
Hearst.
After Reuben II. Lyon. the tempo
rary chairman. had announced that
Mr.. Hearst had been chosen perma-
nent chairman and the latter had been
brought TO the platform a storm Of
enthusiasm ragged for about ten min
utes
Mr.. Hearst made an attack on the
judiciary by indlrectlon lie said in
part:
You elect legislatures TO enact laws.
you elect executives 20 administer the
laws. and It Is time you elected a ju-
dietary which will allow the other
branches Of government 70 perform
their proper functions and not AFRO
gate 20 itself all the power Of govern
mont.
4 DO not differ with those who say
that while Il Is not the duty OF the
Judge 10 make the laws Il Is his duty
70 c0nstrue and interpret them. But

Il Is not his duty 10 make The laws nei.

but merely 10 construc them impair.

Il maintain that the people have a
right 70 consider a judges acts and 10

Judge according 70 his acts There
Is no Office created BY the people that
can be above the commentator Of
the people, above the criticism OF the
people, above the control Of the peo-
pie.
The fact that an unsatisfactory
Judge has been on the bench for four.
teen years IS not an argument for his
retention. but for his retirement In
deed, II IS O potent argument for short
er terms IN order TO give the people an
earlier opportunity 20 retire unfaithful
judges.
Il believe IN the direct responsibility
Of all officials. including judges. TO the
people and IN short terms 10 keep
those officials constantly conscious Of
that responsibility"
Mr.. Hearst then spoke of the present
administration. He said
In New York city the present Dem
ocratic administration has sounded a
depth Of corruption and degradation
that the most Infamous OF IT'S prede-
eessors has never approached.
This administration began IA char
lcteristic manner by stealing the Of

inspiring precedent by stealing every
thing else but the city itself

MEMsER, OF The ASSOCIATED PRESS

The eyes of a great many people in
the country will be turned to the
city of Boise, Idaho, during the trial
of the alleged conspirators in the
assassination of former governor
Steunenberg. President Roosevelt ex-
pressed correctly the general senti-
ment of the country when he said
that the only thing insisted upon is a
square deal. Give those charged with
the conspiracy a fair trial and then
judge them, as other persons accused
of crime are judged, by the evidence.
A great deal of extraneous matter has
been brought into the case that has
no place there. A great deal of
sympathy has been sought to be
created for the defendants that has
no place in the case. Whether or NOT
it is a matter of labor unionism or
anti-labor unionism rs not the ques-
tion before the court for trial. The
question is whether or not the defend
ants were guilty of conspiracy to
assassinate a former public official,
who went to his death through the
cowardly Vaccinations. of somebody
with a grievance. Whoever was re-
sponsible for the murder should be
punished to the fullest extent of the
law. H.. .

visits the place. At midday the real

The city council of Valley City has
authorized an ordinance providing for
boulevarding the residence portion of
the city. Where the streets are 80
feet wide the sidewalks will be six
feet wide and outside of that the
parking will be IS feet and 6 inches
to the outside of the curb. This
leaves the street Al feet in the clear
which is plenty wide enough. Grand
Forks also has this plan. The cost
of grading and maintaining the
streets is much less than that re.
quired for the wider streets, especial
ly where any kind of paving or
macadam is used, and the clean
stretch of wide parking in front OF
each home with it's wealth of green
grass adds greatly to the beauty oil

Neither Miss Robertson nor Mrs, Rob

No matter what the real motive be
hind the drawing Of grand jury for
the forthcoming term of the district
court-if in the exercise of its duties
there shall be brought about any
needed and substantial reforms; if
there are any ills that SHOULD be
cured; If there are any crimes to
punish; if this body can purify the
moral atmosphere, the expense of
this luxury may be justified. It seems,
from glance at the names Of those
petitioning for the jury, that quite a
number Of eminent reformers-only
recently retired from busiless--be.
1ieve there is work for a grand jury
and 1t is possible that they may have
most complete fruition of their hopes
