TATTllNG TEA LEAVES.

Since that ancient time when errins
Antony wandered after a light love the
elusive tnd suspicious blonde has men
AGED the quiet home of domestic man.
It must be assumed, however, that An
tony knew nothing of the leaves, else
the Roman senate was sadly deficient.
All those since who have INDUCED in
the cup that cheers have been wiser
In their generation than that New
York benedict recently accused of non
support by wife expert in the read
ing of tea-dreg mysteries. The evi-
dence was so patent that the guilty
wretch sought no other defense than
a quarrel. With sheer masculine
strategy, which is alleged to have in
cluded cleaning out the house, he
barred the door against his subtle
feminine half, says the Washington
Post. Whereupon came the airing Of
these things before that most unsensi-
tive of persons-the local magistrate
"a low-brow who would not accept
the testimony Of cup turned three
times slowly with WISH" The brute
sided with the man, of course. The
result achieved by such dispensation
of justice is not one to be desired. The
domestic war has subsided to q
feigned peace-a sort of armed neu-
trality. Such well-founded suspicion
will never die. The only thing proved
by it is that men will hang together,
unless It be that there are those who
should bar Oolong from the home.

NAMED SENATE CHAPLA AIN

Rev. DR.. Ulysses G. B. Pierce. who has been
named as chaplain of the United States senate
in succession to the late DR.. Edward Everett
Hale, is already known to the newspaper-readine
public as president Taft's pastor" In other
words, he occupies the pulpit Of All Souls Uni.
tartan church in Washington, in which the presi.
dent occupies a pew upon most of the Sundays
when he attends divine services.
DR.. Pierce was originally intended for Bap-
tist minister by his family and was educated at
Hillsdale, Mich. While attending school there
he helped pay his expenses by editorial work
upon the local weekly paper. There. he says, he
found that he had crossed the boundary line be.

WOULD APPOINT JUDGES

Judge James G. Jenkins former chief justice

clares that the judicial system of this country

whole method of naming our judges is changed
Judge jenkins would have judges elected
From the highest national tribunal to the lowest
local court all judges should be appointed. AS he
explained it in the address he has just delivered
to professional gathering in Chicago, all federal
judges should be appointed by the president, all
judges of state courts by the governor. Politics
should cut figure in the selections and all
judges, after serving long term, should be re-
titred upon pension. This plan would to very
great extent take the courts out of politics. al

The Leavenworth echo. [volume] (Leavenworth, Wash.) 1904-current, 1909-04-23

Washington, April 20.-The sec
rotary of war has decided the case
of the city Of Santa Barbara against
the Union Oil Company. Protests
were filed with the department
against pollution of the waters by
the proposed pipe lines and the
tanks of the company. The engin-
eering department decided that it
was without remedy, and so did the
attorney general. The secretary of
war now says that matter must be
handled by the state, if at all, as the
war department has no jurisdiction.

LAST OF POSTAL FRAUDS
Nearly All Remaining Indictments
Are Dropped.

Washington, April 20.-United
States District Attorney Baker has
abandoned six cases growing out of
the sweeping postoffice department

cases dismissed because of lack of
evidence are the indictments against
August w. Machen, who was general
superintendent of the free delivery
service; Thomas W. McGregor, who
was one of his assistants; Maurice
Runkle, charged with conspiracy in
connection with the contracts for
mail bags, and indictments of Ma
chen, George H. Huntington and
Isaac M McKiehan, involving con-
tracts for package boxes.
The indictments charging bribery
of government officials which were
returned against McKiehan, Hunt
ington, John T. Kupper and William
G. Long also were nolled.
