JUDGE PRENTIS IS INDORSED
Friends Support Hin for Circuit
District to Be Created.
Norfolk and Portsmouth Bar AssO-
citation Appoint Committee to
Urge His Nomination,

Srecial To The Washington Herald.
Norfolk. Va, Feb. lS-Aemocratic legal
friends of Judge Robert z. Prentis, chair
man of the State corporation commission,
are planning a Statewide Endorsement
Of him for the appointment TO the pro-
posed circuit judgeship to be created by
Congress for the Fourth judicial circuit,
and as a result feeling between the law
yers supporting United States District
Judge Waddnl and Judge Prentis is be
coming more bitter every day.
The Norfolk and Portsmouth Bar AsSO-
citation, by vote Of So 70 10, this even
ing indorsed Judge Prentis for the ap-
pointment and appointed A large COM
mittee to wait upon the President and
urge his nomination. Judge Waddilrs s
friends tried hard to prevent the indorse-
ment, and efforts were made to adjourn
the meeting and table the resolution.
Many believe the fight between friends
of Prentis and Waddill is becoming so
bitter and the split among the lawyers
is so wide that President Taft, to avoid
friction, viii look to Maryland TO fill the
new judicial post. although it is Vir-
ginia's turn for the appointment.

GUGGENHEIM AGENT HERE.

Tells Senate Committee of Pur-
chase of Alaska Coal Lands.
Steven Burch, managing director of the
organ-Guggenheim Alaska syndicate.
testified yesterday before the Senate Com
mittee on Territories that the syndicate
had taken an option on what are known
as the Cunningham coal claims in the
latter part of July, 1907, and that it exer-
cised the option in December. 1877. but
had not yet paid the purchase price there
Of for the reason that patents to the
claims had been held up by government.
Mr. Burch explained that the syndi-
cate had a plan under consideration TO
organize a corporation with a capitsl
stock OF 100000 to develop the coal
claims embraced I'm the Cunningham
group. The plan of organization com
pretended the purchase OF one-half in
terest in the claims or $4,000 and the Is
suance OF S5.O0O,OoO of stock. half Of which
to be given to the Cunningham claimants
and the other half 10 be retained by the
syndicate

n Steel. general counsel OF the syndl-
cate. a brother OF Charles Steel, of the
firm of J. p Morgan & Co They asked
for hearing before the committee and
it was accorded 10 them.

The administration injunction bill was
introduced In the House yesterday by
Representative Moon, of Pennsylvania,
chairman Of the Committee on Revision
of the Laws.
Inasmuch as this measure deals with a
subject IN which President Taft has ex-
pressed much interest. and one which he
has declared ne wished TO see enacted
into law in as nearly perfect form as
possible. in order that the platform pledges
OF the Republican party might be made
good. It will undoubtedly be given the
most careful scrutiny
The injunction bill is expressed in one
page of typewriting. and provides that
no injunction. whether interlocutory or
permanent, shall be issued by any Fed
eral court or judge without previous no
tice and an opportunity 10 be heard on
behalf OF the parties enjoined: but If 1t
shall appear, TO the satisfaction Of the
court or judge, from the evidence or
showing made that immediate or irrepar-
able injury is likely TO ensue to the COM
painant, and that the giving of notice OF
the application or the delay incident
Of the act sought to be restrained be-
fore notice could be served or hearing
had thereon, the court or judge may. in
his discretion. issue a temporary restrain
ing order without notice"
It is required that every such order
shall define the injury. state why irrep-
arabic. and why granted without notice,
and shall not extend more than seven
days from the time the notice is served.
Is Radically Different,
THE differences between the Moon bill
and any other bill on this important sub
jeet that has been heretofore introduced
are radical" said Mr.. Moon yesterday
My bill defines accurately the dstinc-
ton between the various phases OF the
injunction process. 1t divides injunctfons
proper into two comprehensive classes
interlocutory injunctions and final in
junctions-and prohibits absolutely the
issuance of such injunctions without no.
tice. II provides for what Is sometimes.
in present practice. indefinitely termed
a preliminary or temporary injunction,
but which is designated in the bill by its
appropriate title restraining order
AN important feature of the bill is
that it accurately and definitely defines
the two essential prerequisites of a re-
straining order without notice. First by
irreparabe injury, and second by the
additional requirement that the giving OF
notice or the delay incident thereto would
prevent the doing of the act sought TO
be restrained before notice could be given.
1T also requires that the judge. before
granting this order, shall judicially find
these facts. either from affidavits filed or
showing otherwise made. and shall spread
them on the records of the court.

Shelter For Hoos,

The ordinary hogpen is low. dirt
floored affair with one opening big
enough for good sized hog. 1t is al
most impossible to clean out such pens
thoroughly. and SO they seldom are
we'll cleaned. Then the quarters are
often too small to accommodate the
number Of hogs that are supposed to
sleep In them. The air becomes foul
and unhealthful. A mighty good test
is to crawl right into the pen after the
hogs have been sleeping in 1t some
time. If the air is bad an opening for
ventilation should be made at the top
of the pen. An opening can be made
that will admit plenty of air and still!
will not let the storms drive in. Bad
sanitary conditions are always con-
ducive to disease. Too many stock
men pay no attention to the details Of
stock raising till something goes wrong
and then call their misfortune bad
luck Cleanliness. warmth and good
ventilation are the requirements of de-
sirable hogpens. Good care is the best
preventive for any disease and also is
necessary for the most economical
gains.-National Stockman.

Feed and Breed.

In too many instances the breeder IS
poor feeder. To spend money for
pure bred animals of any kind and
not feed we'll is folly. The Wisconsin
experiment station says: ''In all pure
breeds the original scrub blood at the
foundation is ever seeking to reinstate
itself. In short. there IS tendency in
all pure bred animals to degenerate or
retrogress toward original and less per-
feet types. and nothing will more sure
Iy and speedily stimulate this tendency
than lack of nutritious food. In the
absence Of sufficient nutrition the pos
sibilities of perfection inherited from
pure bred sires or dams but partially
materialize or wholly fail to assert
themselves"
