RUFUS ". PECKHAM DEAD
DEATH CALLS ASSOCIATE Jus
TicE OF THE SUPREME COURT.
Was Author Of Some Of the Courts
Most Noteworthy
Opinions.

. 4
Albany, N. z. Oct. 25.-Rufus w.
Peckham, associate justice of the
United States supreme court, died at
Coolmore, his summer home, at Alta
mont, Albany county. Death was due
to a complication of diseases, heart
trouble, Bright's disease and harden
ing of the arteries contributing.
Justice Peckham had been in ill
health for some time, but his condi-
ton was not considered serious until
recently.
A few days ago his condition be-
came such that his physicians said he
was likely to die at any time or might
linger for several months.
Peckham Was Democrat.
Washington, Oct. 25.-Justice Peck.
ham was q Democrat. He was born In
Albany, N. T., Nov. 8. 1888, and had
been on the bench. state and federal.
for rs years. He came from the court
of appeals Of his native state, a posi-
ton which his father before him had
occupied.
He was the last Of President Cleve.
lands Democratic appointees to the
federal supreme court, Chief Justice
Fuller and Justice White being the
other two. He took his seat in Janu.
airy, 1895.
Justice Peckham was the author Of
some Of the courts most noteworthy
opinions OF recent date involving the
rights Of corporations. Among them
may be mentioned the case Of the
Consolidated Gas Company, Of New
York, in which he held that while
rates fixed by the legislature must al
low fair return on Investments, feder-
al courts could not interfere to de-
cAlre them invalid unless they were
SO unreasonablly low as to be confis-
catory. One result Of that decision
was to cause the return of several
million dollars to depositors
Several of Mr.. Peckham's corpora
ton decisions dealt with the Sherman
antitrust law as applied to railroads.
These included the joint traffic and
the trans-Missouri cases, in both of
! which he held the law to be applicable.
He also prepared and delivered the
| opinion Of the court in the case Of At
torney General Young, Of Minnesota,
! in which 1t was held that the federal
courts could interfere with the execu-
ton by the state courts of an uncon.
,stitutional state law.

Last Saturday evening the local
lodge of Knights of Pythias held
a special session to welcome the
Grand Chancellor of this domain,
dad" Sven. Notwithstanding
the bad weather which had been
in force for some time the mem

gave the Grand Chancellor royal
welcome. Work was done in the
third rank on four candidates and
the distinguished visitor was
shown that the Paonia lodge can
confer the rank equal to any.
A little after midnight the men,
bers adjourned to the Goode-
nough restaurant where a fine
banquet was spread. b. S. Rud-
dick was chosen POSTMASTER and
called on several members to
respond to toasts. Those respond

A sale was consummated the first

A sale was consummated the first

stand high with all. c. c. Haw-
kins sold sixteen acres on German
mesa, set to five-year-old peach
trees. to T. L. Crews, of Colorado
Springs, who will bring his family
here by spring. This sixteen
acres sold at the rate of eight
hundred dollars per acre and con
servative judges think Mr.. Crews
got it cheap. Mr.. Crews has been
engaged in the grocery and hard
ware business at Colorado Springs
where he has been signally sue
cessful While fully satisfied with
his purchase Mr.. Crews when he
returns will buy another ranch
for the purpose of raising his hay
and grain. He certainly has the
right idea about this and being a
man of good judgment will
never regret his purchases. He
left for his home in the Springs on
Tuesday and told our reporter
that he would return in from
thirty to sixty days, expecting it

Commercial Association.

On Friday evening, February
9Th, the Paonia Commercial Asso-
citation held their annual meeting
for the purpose of electing officers
and transacting other. necessary
business. Quite a crowd was in
attendance and the Women of
Woodcraft. who furnished the
banquet that preceded the busi-
ness meeting made a neat sum.
And the banquet deserves to be
credited with being one of. if not
the very best the Association has
yet had furnished.
After the good things had
been dispatched President Emry
called the meeting to order and
announced that the officers for
the ensuing year would be at
once elected. After many nomi-
nations had been made and two
votes taken, Nj. d. Vincent was
elected President, u. o. Anderson,
Vice President, and Harry Will
Hanson, Treasurer. To these was
added J. d. Hawkins. E. w.
Moutray and Merle Miller, the
whole constituting a board of di-
rectors. The Board were en-
powered to select their own Sec
retary and H. E. Maxville was
appointed the following day.
The Association starts out with
a large membership and a fine set
of officers. During the past year
much good work has been done
and during the coming year we
may confidently expect that this
work will be continued.
A committe on railroads was
authorized and they will make it
their business to try and induce
an extension of the c. & S. across
Kuebler pass into this valley also
will try and convince the d. & K.
G. people that connection with
their main line via Placita will be
a good thing for both the valley
and the road.
The next meeting of the Asso-
citation will likely be on Friday,
March 9th, at the usual hour.

OLD. POINT may GET
NEGRO FOR WHARF|NCER
Report Says That M. Nelson Will
be Succeeded October | by
David Sumner, COIored.
LOCAL PEOPLE INCLINED 10 PROTEST
Man in Charge Of Wharf is Brought
in Close Contact With Agents OF
Steamship Lines and the Public,
and Government May be Asked to
Retain White Man.

Considerable interest has been Gre
ated in local shipping circles and
around Fort Monroe over the report
that David Summer, a negro. is to De
appointed the wharfinger at old Point.
Sumner will, it IS said, succeed Mr..
William Nielsen, who has held the
position for the past several months,
on the first of October. He was Tor
sometime a clerk on one OF the trans
ports but later was transferred 10
one CT the departments in Washing
ton Sumner is said TO be a negro
OF some education.
The position of wharfinger at Old
Point is one that throws the wharnn-
ger in contact with the owners OF the
ships and small craft, as well as the
many agents of the various companies
running steamers ipto that point. For
that reason considerable objection Is
icing made against the government
sending a negro here as wharnnger
and the prospects are that the quar-
termaster general of the United
States army will be asked to inter-
cede with the civil service commits
sion in the hope OF having Gunner
sent TO some other point and having
a white man retained as wharfinger
at Old Point.
Capt. Rorebeck. the post quarter
master at Fort Monroe, under whose
supervision the Office of wharfnger
is. tcld the Daily Press representative
that he has not received official con-
firmation of the appointment Of Sum-
ner as wharfinger. although he has
heard the runner. He declined 10
discuss the appointment, further than
to say that hshad not been officially
informed of the selection.
The wharfinger collects the wharf
age charges from the owners OF yes
sells and has the authority to see
that the ships use the proper customs
in tying UP at the wharf.
Mr.. Nelson. it is said, will be re-
lieved here, but whether or not ne
will be sent to another point has not
been announced.
