a GREAT POWER WELDED BY TAFT.

IN S THE STAR pointed out when Chief Justice Funers death was
IA announced, President Taft will, in all probability, have the
appointment of a majority of the members OF the United
States Supreme Court, and, consequently, for many years Mr.. Tafts
justices will decide great constitutional questions that arise-ques
tons that involve the relations of the Federal government and the
States. questions affecting the relations of the great corporations
and the people. The power to appoint a majority of the United
States Supreme Court is incomparably the greatest the President
can exercise. That court is above Congress and the President, and
above the States that formed the Federal compact. The court is
supreme over all and there is no appeal from its decisions. Presi
dent Taft has made a good appointment in the person of Governor
Hughes, of New York. The motives that influenced the appoint
ment might have been, as alleged, to remove Governor Hughes from
the path of the party organization leaders in New York, but his
fitness cannot be questioned. Will the court be as fortunate in
future selections? In making them the President should not over
look the fact that New Jersey has not been represented on the Su-
preme bench since the days of Justice Bradley. We have legal
ability in this State which would reflect honor upon any court.

clothes made up for soldiers, so we
declare war in the name OF the Amer
lean flag and the Monroe Doctrine.
War in these days, sham battles in the
twentieth century, are but proofs of
the ~half-savage state in which We live.
Were it not for the greed of the men
in power arbitration would have taken
the place of war long ago, and such
tragedies as occur in sham battles
would not adorn the pages of the press.
Progress is, indeed, slow. when all
of the talk against wal that has
been started by the peace conferences
has resulted in nothing more than
sham battles and new Dreadnoughts.
The days for the ,ecessity of war
have passed, the dawn of civilization
has brought with it a realization of
the horrors attached to the soldiers
the greatest country in the world,
ought to take stronger measures to-
ward spreading the gospel of world
wide, everlasting peace.
Arbitration is taking the place Of
strikes; let it also take the place of
war-no real war, no sham war. In
stead of a standing army of gold braid,
guns and blue coats we should have an
army of industrial and intellectual
men who, with the energy and brain
they waste on war, would do real work
that would be of real service to hui
manity at large. ANTI-WAR.

THE ELUSIVE DIR. cRIpPEM.

1TaHE case of DR.. Crippen oyershadows that of Porter Charlton
only because of its mystery and the success with which this
remarkable criminal has eyaded the European police, al
though accompanied by a woman. Flight is confession. 1t was
hardly necessary to determine the sex of the victim whose flesh,
stripped from her bones, was discovered buried in quicklime in the
cellar of DR.. Crippens house in London. By the stupidity of the
London police the murderer was permitted to escape when there
were strong suspicious of the crime, and he vanished so completely
that al. the searchings made have found no trace of him. But unless
DR.. Crippen is swallowed up by the ocean or casts himself into n
bottomless pit he will eventually be ap~prehended, and in all proba.
hity the arrest will be made in London.

woodrow Wilson No HOrnswoggier.
To the Editor of the Evening Star:
Dear Sir-The name Of Woodrow Will
son, Princeton's president, is on the Tip
Of the tongue just now in connection
with the gubernatorial candidacy. The
EVENING STAR looks with favor
upon the naming OF a citizen who
stands so high in the public esteem.
and l hope that through its influence
and other influences working for the
common good this mar will be nomi-
mated and elected to the highest office
in this State.
Those opposed to the nomination say
that President Wilson has had no ex-
p~erience in municipal or State affairs,
and for that reason will not be capable
of conducting the office Of governor.
II DR.. Wilson has no experience he
also is without that experience peculiar
to politicians, namely, graft, weak
backbone and hot air. Better that a
green man enter the governors
chamber than a politician who is well
versed in the art Of modern political
fim-fiamming.
What we want is a man in Office who
is honest and intelligent, and, even
though he is not onto the ropes" OF
office-holding, he will give the people
that which he promised before election.
I am for green DR.. Wilson and

A GOOD LEGISLATOR SEEKS RETIREMENT.

IN SSEMBLYMAN MARK A. SULLIVAN, of Hudson county.
T1l leader of the minority in the Assembly, announces that he
does not desire a denomination, as his law practise calls for
his undivided attention. Mr.. Sullivan is serving his fourth term in
the Legislature, and for three years he has been the Democratic
leader on the floor. A young man, in hi. thirty third year, Mr.. Sui.
livan has made an enviable record as a legislator. 1t is spotless.
The fine personal qualities of the man won for him the strong per-
sonal regard as we'll as respect of all his fellow members of four
legislatures. The State cannot afford to lose this bright, able, patri-
otto and highly useful legislator, and perhaps it won't for another
year.

position.
Finally one of the freeholders,
who had grown tired of the delay,
spoke up and said concerning the
two young men he had named:
"They are nice young men,"
That settled 1t. They were chosen
unanimously. TIE argument was
unanswerable. Several of the free
holders who had nominated candi-
dates of their own hung their heads
in shame. But then, of course they
hadn't known. Yet everything
came out all right in the end.
It's certainly nice to be nice.

me hard. We must elect candidates
this fall who will work in the interest

our representatives at Trenton to give
us a square deal. Ali the readers of

we must throw away party affiliations

have taken is to be commended and

The owner of q Cleveland cafe who
displayed a sign reading This Is John
DIS Place" was arrested. His name Is
John d. ~Schnapps. It is rather difncult
to understood by what mental proc
esses any magistrate could reach the
conclusion that a mar had no right to
display his own name on a sign, be-
cause the name happened also to be
worn by a more noteworthy or noto-
rious person. This is a free country
and names are not copyrighted. Mr..
John d. Schnapps will have the SYM
| pathy Of a large section of the public
when hts case comes up for trial next

bathtub seems disposed to remain in
It. On the heels Of a bathtub mys-
terry which stirred the entire country
| comes the report that a bathtub trust
controls the commodity and keeps the

the gentle practise of regular bathing
must be looked at askance. The trust
Is doubtless enamel hearted enough to

A frank Daughter of the American
Revolution urged members of Pitts
burg's women's clubs, who were ex-
cited over the report that a w~ell-known
woman smoked cigarettes, to remember
that "a hundred years ago our great
grandmothers sat with their husbands
and smoked corn pipes" Coming, as it
does, from such a source, this reflection
is refreshing. Usually. in considering
colonial times, we are RECALLED with
epaulets, swords and commissions while
the purely domestic side of the life of
our ancestors is ignored.
The amusement with which many will
read of the subterfuge of Chester, Pa,
dog owners who painted muzzles on
their dogs to fool the authorities must
quickly give way to Indignation when
1t is remembered how great is the peril
from unmuzzled dogs in dog days. IN a
town where owners find 1t necessary to
paint muzzles there must be some effort
to control the stray-dog evil. In New

offending dogs examined when they can
be found.

HAPPY COUPLE UNITED.

Last evening in Denver at $50
o'clock, Miss Florence E. Flynn and
Frank G. Crane were united in we'd

The ceremony was performed in the
presence Of only few relatives and
very close friends of the contracting
parties. The couple for the present
will make their home in Denver mad

the First Avenue hotel.
The bride is one of the loveliest
and most popular Of old Gilpin's fair
daughters. She was raised in Central

friends. For the past four years she
has been one of the operators in the
local telephone exchange and at the
time she resigned to don the matri-
monial yoke had reached the high
position of trust as chief operator.
The groom is graduate of the Col
den School of Mines and is but little
known in these parts. Last summer
he held position in the Evergreen
mill in Apex. The bride and groom
were the recipients of many beauti-
full and useful gifts, among these be-
ing set of handsome silver spoons
from the attaches of the telephone
exchange in this city. The couple en-
ter into their new relations with the
hearty congratulations and well
wishes of friends and acquaintances
in Gilpin county.

DIES OF HEART TROUBLE.

Mrs. Elizabeth Driscoll was found
dead on couch this morning a few
minutes before eight o'clock by her
daughter, Miss Josie, who is working
nights at the telephone exchange. Miss
Driscon was coming home from work
when she discovered the lifeless
form of her mother. The shock was
a severe one to the young lady. The
mother was in fairly good health last
evening when she left her to go to
work, although she had been COM
planning about her heart the past
week. Heart trouble undoubtedly was
the cause of death and from the con-
dition of the body when found it is
supposed that death occurred in the
early part of last evening.
Mrs. Elizabeth Driscoll came to
Gilpin county from New Diggings,
Wis, in August, 1878, and has many
friends who were shocked to hear OF
ner unexpected death. She is surviv-
ed by four children, namely John,
Josie, Edna and Ray. No arrange
ments for the funeral have been
made as some of the children are
out of the city. This death is the
most sorrowful occurrence the COM
munity has suffered for some time
and the children have the deepest
sympathy Of all.
