Justice Peckham.

One trait of character in Rufus w.
Peckham, associate justice Of the SUI
preme court of the United States, who
has just passed away, might well be
accepted as a heritage by every men,
Der of the bar who aspires to advance
ment in his profession. 1t was not
by any special brilliance that he shone,
a flash OF genius that would have
quickly faded, but, instead, he was
the marvel of all, because he attended
strictly and absolutely to the specific
duties of his high office and paid no
attention to extraneous matters. 1t
is on record tina after he took his seat
on the supreme bench, Justice Peck
ham abstained utterly from participa-
ton in public functions, and devoted
all his energies and all his abilities.
and they were manifold to the de-
mands Of his judicial office.
Mr.. Peckham came to the bench by
right of birth and legal training. His
father, who was one of the 14O victims
lost in midocean in the wreck of the
Vile de Havre, November %, 1873.
had been successfully district attor-
pey and justice Of both the supreme
court and the court of appeals of New
York state. The son followed closely in
the footsteps Of his father, becoming
a partner in his fathers firm. and sub
seauently holding the offices in which
his father had preceded him, 1t was
while he occupied a seat on the bench
of the New York court of appeals that
he was promoted by President Cleve-
land to be an associate justice OF the
supreme court of the United States, an
office to which he brought not only
dignity and experience, but also devo-
ton to his official duties with a single
mindedness that is rare either on or of
the bench,
In the east Justice Peckham will be
long remembered for his famous de
cision in the case Of the New York gas
rate litigation, which restored to this
citizens millions of dollars in rebates
In the west his name is notable for it,

tic cases, establishing the application

Our College Bandits.

Although the season of the opening
of the colleges has brought with IL the
usual recurrence of rushes and hazings
in which personal indignities and
some times physical injuries have
been inflicted, we must credit to the
ex~uberance of the college student one
noteworthy act of good fellowship in
the kidnapping Of a captain of indus
try. No less a parsonage than Clarence
H.. Mackay, president OF the Postal
Telegraph company, vas the victim OF
the marauders. When he reached
Reno, a band OF bandits from the Uni
yersity OF Nevada surrounded him,
conveyed him to their lonely rendezvous
in the mountains, and kept him pris-
oner for six hours. No -mistreatment
was offered. and when the magnate
was restored to Colonel Harvey and his
other companions who had marveled
at his disappearance, he met their in
quiries with a smile and said he had
been having a good time.
A good time he certainly a mad
for the roisterous students saw tC
that. No fabulous ransom was de
handed from the master in finance
instead, the price OF his liberty was
the indulgent attention he was forced
to pay to demonstrations OF his Owl
personal worth. Mr.. Mackay had beer
a generous contributor to the univer
,slty. and the students took this move
and effective way Of manifesting theiI
gratitude. Such a spirited display o
genuine affection for a ~benefactor o
education must be calculated to viii
any mans heart.
Dressed in cowboy regalia forces
upon him for the occasion. Mr.. Maeka.

The Hidden Reason.

The democrats ar making their
campaign in Nebraska this year with
their candidates masquerading in all
sorts Of garbs. To republicans they
appeal as nonpartisans, to populists
they hold up their sworn statements
OF afdniation with the populist party
and from democrats they demand
party loyalty. 80
The democrats gained a partial vic
tory In Nebraska last year by carrying
the presidential ticket for Bryan, and
electing the governor and legislature.
II democratic control OF the law
making snd executive power had given
them a record which they could de-
fead they would be out in the open
pointing with pride and asking for
the endorsement at the polls which
they believed belonged to them. The
reason they are not making the cam
.paign as a vindication of the record OF
the late legislature is that the record
is so vulnerable they want the people
to forget it. They are therefore busy
trying to raise up side issues, and
hghting fake phantoms. in order to gel
by stealth and false representations.
the vote OF confidence which they
know they have forfeited.
II the election had occurred last
spring. within thirty days after the
democratic legislature had adjourned.
every candidate bearing the democratic
label would have been buried under a
mountain-high avalanche of votes. The
democrats do not believe It is yet quite
safe to hoist the democratic banner
into fun daylight. That is the reason
why they are feigning nonpartisanshiI
and asking people to vote for demo
cratic candidates in spite OF the fac
they are democrats.

The County Judge.

The Office of county Judge is one of
the most important to be filled at the
election next week. The county Judge
has not only the Jurisdiction Of other
examining magistrates over criminal
prosecutions, and jurisdiction over
elusive Jurisdiction in probate mat
tiers subject only to appeal. The court
over which the county Judge presides
is more particularly the court of the
widows and orphans, and the principal
part Of his work is the supervision OF
the administration Of estates passing
at death to heirs and beneheiaries.
While the public offices are all public
trusts, the Office Of county judge makes
its incumbent particularly the trustee
for all the private property embraced
within the estates that go through
probate.
At the coming election voters of
Douglas county will be called on to
say whether they want to continue
County Judge Leslie in this responsible
position. Judge Leslie's conduct of
the county court for the last four years
has been s~ingularly without criticism
OF complaint. He has reorganized it's
administrative machinery and put it on
a business basis, scrupulously account
ing for all the fees earned and for the
trust funds coming into his custody.
There have been scandals in the county
judges Office, but o since Judge Les
lie took charge, and he has removed
the sources Of the previous trouble. The
estates which he has administered as
county Judge have mounted into the
millions of dollars, and his decisions
of disputed points have, for the most
part, been accepted by those concerned
without further contest.
II the people of Douglas county
wan their county court kept on it's
present high plane they will r~e-elect
Judge Leslie.

OVER A MILLION VISITORS in
NEW YORK CITY s,,
Many Hudson-Fulton Celebration Guests
stopped at the Eotsl st. Regis.

Careful estimates indicate that during
the week Of September 20 to october 2,
1909 (the period of the Hudson-Fulton
Celebration in that oity), there were up
wards of one million visitors CHARTERED
in New York at once. At such a time It
is most important for the visitor tokbe
housed in a really restful hotel. The
strenuous celebrating cannot be fully en-
joyed If its f%atiguing features are re-
peated at night in the hotel corridors and
public rooms. In the largest hotels this
was unavoidable. while in the small hotels
their size naturally reduced the noise OF
numbers, but augmented the feature of
overcrowding. There was one other class.
however, of which the Hotel St Regis, at
Fifth Avenue and Fifty-fifth street, is
admittedly 1.-THE leader, where neither ex-
cess of noise nor o-vercrowding was pos
sible, and where patrons obtained the
same home-like comforts and seclusion
as If such things as te~rcentenaries. Npa-
rades n pageants did not exist. ne
st. Regis is recognized as "Americ1s
finest hotel" and on this occasion Il
demonstrated anew its right TO this title.
The St Regis made many new friends,
for those who stopped there for the first
time learned that it's CUISINE is unsur-
passed anywhere and that its restaurant
charges are no higher than other first
class hotels. They also learned that the
ST. Regis room rates are likewise low
from SO to 81 a day for a comfortable
and splendidly furnished large single
room; s. a day for the same with private
bath Cor Sc for two people,; or s12 a day
and up for an exquisite suite OF parlor,

Moved by a sudden revival of a base
less faith. our democratic brethren
have taken TO Specializing on the pos
sibility Of their landing a speaker IN
the next congress, and they are asking
themselves who shall that candidate
be. AS far as close observation has
discovered, the only candidate in sight
is Champ Clark, the picturesque prod
uct of Bowling Green, Missouri. Thus
do the democrats confess themselves
once more in their chronic condition Of
painful paucity; whenever they cast
their greedy glance at a possible place
and look over their ranks for a candi-
date of caliber, they invariably empha-
size to the eye OF the world the extra
ordinary exiguity.
In his place as congressman, Champ
Clark has afforded entertainment for
the country at large by his occasional
speeches; he has been a diversion when
the sessions have dragged too heavily.
But. it is one thing to be agreeable in
~oratory or amusing with glimpses OF
opera bouffe, and another thing to be
the leader of men, as Champ learned
to his sorrow when he attempted to
manage the minority in the house. AS
a party leader he demonstrated execu-
tive inefficiency, and he who cannot
whip his own partisans into line and
keep them there can hardly control the
channels of legislation as the speaker
Of the house is required to do. In the
old days when the speaker was simply
the moderator of a gathering, almost
anyone could have presided; but those
times have long since past, and even
though the present rigid rules should
some time be relaxed, there would al
ways be needed in the chair a master
full executive and instant parliament
tartan, all of which Champ, despite his
worthy personal traits, is not.
Fortunately, the democratic dream
Of a democratic speaker is not prom
Using of immediate realization, and
Champ will doubtless continue his les
ser illumination of the floor OF the
house, the chautauqua platform, and
the barn dances of Rowling Green.

which its mistakes and failures have been
widespread and phenomenal. The demo-
cratic party garbled the primary law out
OF all semblance to its original intent
and meaning and has rendered Il a by
word instead OF a powerful instrument for
good. The democratic party amended out
OF the revenue law its vital features for
securing equity and uniformity in the
valuation Of all property whether private
or corporate. In constructive legislation
the democratic party failed utterly and left
only a record Of legislation creating places
for democrats on the public payroll and
abortive attempts to further extend the list
Of office holders by the attempted creation
OF a board of beer inspectors" whose com
bined salaries would touch the public
treasury for the neat sum Of $1,000 per
year.
This is but a passing glance at the COM
%parison that may be truthfully made at the
records OF two parties in Nebraska.

cratic candidates put his party record up

The Nonpartisan Humbug


When the democratic politician comes
buzzing around as a ''non-partisan' and
implores the republican voter to support
democratic candidates Il might be well
for the voter thus impiored to lay off a
minute and consider what the republican
party I'm the state has accomplished in
the recent past for the benefit OF the people
OF Nebraska and also what, II anything.
the democratic party which Is seeking
bis vote has done for the general good.
The republican party gave to the state
a direct primary law which while perhaps
not perfect. had in It the sound principles
for the safeguarding OF popular government
In the hands OF the people. The party
gave TO the state the railway commission
law, the 2-oent passenger fare law. the
anti-pass law. the commodity rate law, the
express rate law and the best revenue law
under which the state has ever rested. Re
administration paid off without
burden TO the people a state debt aggre-
eating nearly two millions, through econ

Extending Our Foreign Commerce.

Business men Of the United States
viii watch the approaching meeting of
the National Council of Commerce in
washington in the hope that it may
find a way to demonstrate it's useful
ness along the lines indicated when it
was organized two years ago. This
Council was to be cooperative among
American business men with the idea
Of more widespread extension Of our
national export trade, but after Secre-
tary Straus had launched it on it's
preliminary way, the expected govern
mental support of American houses in
their efforts to increase their exports
failed to be forthcoming, except
through the limited circulation of the
daily consular reports.
These reports have an immediate
value to such interests Is have prompt
access to them, being backed as they
are by the entire fund of information
and effort of the consular service. And
to facilitate the dissemination of this
official knowledge, and Of other mat
ter pertaining to the immediate news
of the foreign markets, was the very
purpose of the National Council. Off
Gals in the Department Of Commerce
and Labor believe that such a council
may become a great factor in cultivat-
ing international trade, and they have
all along beer among it's strongest ad-
vocates. 1t is for the business inter
ests of the country, however, to inves-
tigate anew the possibilities of this
council, n to see II it may not be
developed into what Secretary Straus
had in mind at its inception, an or
ganization for the commercial interests
OF the whole country, such as a local
chamber of commerce to a single city.

The idea of a non-partisan judiciary
and the idea Of a bipartisan judiciary
are absolutely irreconcilable. A nom
partisan judiciary assumes that the
judges belong to no party and are COM
mitted to no political creed. The BIZ
partisan idea would simply divide the
positions on the bench between repre-
%sentatives of two political parties, and
each Judge would have to be partisan
in order to give representation to his
