Not long ago a Delaware Judge ordered
that no negro should be addressed in his
court as Mr.. or Mrs, and ne promptly
fined an attorney for contempt who had
either inadvertently made>a slip or DELHI
erately preferred to be decent. 1t is worth
abiding to this II only to say that a
higher Delaware court promptly overruled
this ridiculous judge who so trifled with
the dignity Of the court. But 1t remains
for a Chicago Judge to go beyond limits.
There was before him a young woman
charged Will drinking and playing cards
with men. This Judge told her IF she
couldn't lead a decent life she had better
go jump into the lake." this after filming
her s. and then changing his mind and
raising it to $25. Great indignation has
been aroused in Chicago at this, as we'll
thre may be. II that judge is not forced
to resign, his presence on the bench is
likely to cost Chicago more in self-respect
and lawlessness than can easily be esti-
mated.
Is there any one thing needed in this
country so much as respect for law on
the part of those IN high places, those
charged specially with enforcing respect

SUCCESS OF THE STATE FAR.

HcNbEoc UT he oIdLE ain
The Nebraska State fair has just
closed its period with a record of at
tendance hat exceeds any in it's previ-
GUS experience, and a really handsome
sum to the credit Of the organization.
The fact will be taken as It stands,
without effort to ascribe cause for the
prosperity that has come to the exposi-
ton. 1t ought to prosper. 1t is an
exhibition in which every citizen of
Nebraska has an interest and II affords
something that is of value to every
citizen of the state. The opportunity
1t gives the farmers to compare prod
ucts and methods, to learn of improve
ments that are being made in the ways
of agriculture and to gain from obser-
walton and inquiry suggestions that
may be turned to profit on the farms
of the state is worth more in money
than the cost of the fair many times
over, The city man may gain much of
practical value there, too, for he is
more closely interested in agriculture
than he often realizes. The farmer is
still the important factor in the
makeup of society n whatever is for
his benefit is for the benefit of oil.
Therefore the success of the state fair
is occasion for congratulating every
citizen of the state.

BUMP CURE ron SPEED MAMA.

Long Island authorities are to the
front with a novel proposition TO check
automobile scorehers. 1t is proposed
to build concrete hummOcks on all
of the highways in front of each rail-
way crossing so that Automobiles
will take warning and approach the
tracks at moderate pace.
The scheme IL a reflection upon the
owners Of automobiles, who thus com
pei the authorities to protect them
from the fruits of their own folly and
recklessness, but It is worth trying,
for the sake OF persons who may be
