Defending the Courts.
philadelphia RecOrd.)

For reasons of diplomacy it was
judicious for the eighteen eminent Re-
publicanS who have memOriallZed the
convention of their party to defend
the authority of the Courts to refer to
the Democratic platform of 1896 and
some of the remarks of William Jen-
nings Bryan as a reason for their ac-
ton. But the preteXt is SO transpa-
rent that the real reason for the me-
mortal shows through plainly enough.
These Republicans memOrialists re-
fer to Democratic platform and can
didate of a dozen years ago and the
probability of the same candidate be-
ing nominated again as a reason why
they beg the approaching convention
of their own party to incorporate in
the platform these words:
Eve affirm our confidence in the in
tegrity and justice of the Courts, State
and national and we insist that the
preservation Of their independence
and full constitutional prerogative is
essential to the maintenance of the
American system of government"
But the real reason for this memoir
ial is the attacks upon the judiciary
made by Theodore Roosevelt, Presi-
dent of the United States, and the GER

to its platform a general Endorsement
Of everything he has said and done
The Roosevelt policies are to be af-
tirmed at Chicago, and the eighteen
memorialists are anxious that one of
his policies should be excepted from
the comprehensive approval. The
President has animadverted most i'm
properly upon a decision by Judge
Humphreys in the Beef Trust case IN

Judges with abusing the writ Of i'm
junction, and in consequent thereof
he has asked Congress to abridge the
power of the Courts to preserve the
status quo in disputes by the summary
issue of temporary injunctions.
1t is the attitude of. the President
towards the Courts that has moved

four former members of Republican
Cabinets and several eminent lawyers

ask for an affirmation by the Repub-
lican convention of the conviction

There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
infamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed, you have g
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing
and when it is entirely closed, deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
fammatiOn can be taken out and this
tube restored to it's normal condition
hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by
catarrh, which is nothing but an in
TANNED condition of the mucous sur

HOW LEAP YEAR
EFFECTS THE CALENDAR

Leap Year has brought about some
peculiar anomalies. Washington s
birthday, Memorial day and the
Fourth of July fall on Saturday. thus
giving the public three double holi-
days during 1905 Ordinarily these
three holidays do not come on the
same day of the week, but by the in
tervention Of February 80. this year
Washington's birthday came just

fourteen weeks earlier than Memorial
day, which regularly comes five weeks
before the Fourth Of July. The ad-
vantage to the busy public in having
three holidays fall on Saturday SO
that they have two days of leisure
together is obvious. In creating
Labor day the advantage of this prin-
ciple was taken in the selection of
Monday, instead of selected day of
the month. In 1909, Washington 8

In the latter year Christmas will also
fall on Saturday, thereby affording
the most complete utilization of the
holidays possible in our calendar.

At the meeting Of the city council
tonight the matter Of the legality of
redeeming about $40, 900 worth Of city
water bonds within the next few
weeks will come up for discussion.
When the bonds were sold and the
ordinance drafted ten years was set
as the time in which some Of the
bonds could be redeemed and the re.
manning portion could run several
years longer. The first OF the coming
year is the time set for the payment

900, now SO that the interest could be
stopped. 1t has been figured out that
about $500 could be saved in interest
to the city.
As far as known several of the
councilmen are in favor of redeeming
the bonds at this time, while other
are in favor of letting them run to
the first of the year, the specified
time. City Treasurer Howells claims
that the bonds can not be redeemed
lawfully until the first Of the coming
January and asserts that he will re-
fuse to pay the bonds until that time

be legal. There is $4,000 in the
