Too Much Work for Court.

Olympia-Proof has been brought
before the legislative committee.
which is investigating the Washing
ton state supreme court, that in q
number of cases the court has in its
decisions seriously misstated facts.
That the court has made numerous
errors In many cases is generally
known to members of the bar. This
condition of affairs is attributed to
the immense volume of work the
court has to handles :.
Last year there were so cases filed
in the supreme court. With each
case came all the pleadings. a tran
script of the evidence, briefs of both
sides and in addition the attorneys
usually made an oral argument to
the court. In one case alone the evil
dence was of such volume that one

hours day. II each one of the nine

have got in disposing OF the 500
cases before it.
Until a few months ago. although
the state supreme court actually had
seven members. it was actually and
practically lone man" court. That
is to. say, in the majority of cases
disposed OF of but one justice read
all of the evidence and the record,
although a majority of all of the
court made it a rule to read the
briefs and hear and discuss the oral
arguments.
This enormous work could be OBJ
waited il the legislature were to pass
law condensing all cases filed, 30
that all members of the supreme
court might have the time to read
each one.

ton to Hear Impeachment
Charges.

Olympia. H. Schively, insur-
ance commissioner, filed so type
written pages in his answer to the
Impeachment proceedings which was
served Friday afternoon on Attorney
General Bell.
Pleading not guilty to each and
every one Of the &c counts; claiming
that the senate court of impeach-
ment is without jurisdiction to try
the charges; entering a demur to
each count; invoking the statute of
limitations in "a instances; denying
that he has been absent from his Of
fee for extended periods or that he
has brought the Office into disrepute
and throwing all the blame onto
Sam H. Nichols, ex-secretary of
state, for acts committed during the
time Nichols was ex-oficio state in
surance commissioner, Schively fled
answer to the &c Impeachment
charges preferred against him with
the senate by the house of repre-
sentatives.
In addition, Schively asks that II
senator's be barred from sitting at
the trial. The first thing set forth
in the answer is the request for the
barring OF Senator Paulhamus.
Schively claims that Paulhamus is
biased and holds a personal enmity
toward the accused.
With relation to the charge he
says it is a private matter, outside
Of the insurance department, that
it is pending in the state courts at
Spokane, where he is under indict-
nent, that such courts have jurisdic-
ton and the legislature should not
interfere with that Jurisdiction. The
statute OF limitation Is pleaded as
against some counts, and all Of the
counts are declared to charge no
crime and that no issue can be
joined thereon

What the Jury Found.

Some years ago the body Of well
dressed man was found In field on
the outskirts OF an English town.
There were no marks Of violence. and
it was doubtful whether death had Oc-
Cured from natural causes or If the
individual had committed suicide. In
due course the body was identified,
and a gentleman who had been ac-
quainted with the deceased was called
upon to give evidence at the inquest.
Among other things, he-stated that he
had always considered him to be a. man
Of marked idiosyncrasies. and his brain
was continually excited by his irresist-
ible fondness for -chimeras. Of yar1-
Gus kinds. The jury was evidently
satisfied with his statement and i'm
mediately brought in a. verdict that
death was caused by idiosyncrasies
forming On the brain in consequence
Of excessive indulgence in chimeras,"

warning to people to refrain from that
