ence and stability and the like i'm patience of later generation go to prove that the judiciary was filling we'll it's part as a balance in the machinery of the federal govern ment, as was the intention when the Constitution was framed and adopted.
 In criticism of our American ship of state Thomas Carlyle asserted that it was "all sail and no anchor" By throwing open the judiciary to exposure to the probability of frequent impeach- ment and recall there will be wrought a hoisting of more sail i, and throwing away of the ballast in the hold. And with the "inun- dation of insects to quote Jeffer- son again, that would reach the bench by playing upon popular sympathy, prejudice and passion what chance would there be "that science may be encouraged and may live" on the benchP

A Former Resident of Nogales.

Two or three weeks ago there was a sensational occurrence on the floor of the Chamber of Depu, ties in the Federal Congress in the City of Mexico, wherein one of the deputies, becoming angered in the heat of debate took shot at another, for which the shooter was unseated and confined in the Belem prison under criminal charge The deputy who did the shooting is named Salvador Diaz- Miron, a noted literateur and poet, and the intended victim, who escaped in- jury fortunately, was MT. Juan C.. Chapltal. Recent newspapers from the federal capital presented DOT traits of the two deputies, and in Mir. Chapital Nogales people re. eognize a former resident of the line city, who was comandante in the Mexican custom house in Nogales, Sonora, from which post he was transferred to one of the larger custom houses on the east coast of the republic, some ten years ago.

RECALL AND JUDICIARY.
(continued from page D


 "The dignity and stability of government in all its branches. "the morals of the people, and "every blessing of society depend so much upon an upright and "skilful administration of justice "that the judicial power ought to be distinct from both the legisla- "tive and the executive, and in- dependent upon both, that so it may be check upon both, as both should be checks upon that. The Judges therefore should be men of learning and experience in the laws, of exemplary morals, great patience, calmness and attentions; 'their minds should not De distracted "ooith jarrin9 interests, (the italics "are by THE OAsIs) they should mot be dependent upon any man or body of men, To these ends they should hold estates for life 'in their offices, or in other words "their commissions should be dur Ting good behavior, and their salaries ascertained and estab- "lIshed by law"
 In March 1779, in another letter to the same gentleman MT. Jeffer- son wrote
 "I think the bar of the General Court proper and excellent nur. 'sery for future judges if it be so regulated that science may be en- "couraged and may live there. But this can never be if an inundation ''of insects is permitted to come from the county courts and con ''sume the harvest" "
 Later in life, his distrust of the judiciary manifested itself in dia- tribes levelled at and criticisms of the federal judiciary with their life tenure, and their manifest disposi tion to construe the Constitution upon the Hamilton theory. Many quotations from his writings may be made to show his change ot thought In a letter to Mir. Wm. F. Barry, July lst, 1922, he wrote:
 "Let future appointments of judges be for four or six years, and renewable by the President "and Senate. This will bring their ''cOnduct at regular periods under revision and probation, and may keep them in equipose between the general and special govern 4ments" :"
 But the cause of the change of heart between Jefferson's earlier and declining years was that the judiciary appointed for life by Washington and Adams was prov. Ing just what was intended by the framers of the Constitutions gov ernOr or balance wheel in the machine of government which served to moderate the speed i'm parted in a certain direction by the school of theorists including Jefferson himself when he ran the government for quarter of cen tury. It is to be noted that a later generation that was in a tremen- dous hurry to wipe out slavery lodged the same kind of objection to the judges on the federal bench who had been appointed by the democratic successors of Jefferson in the Presidency. In this connec- tion ere leaving this topic it may not be amiss to note that even in his old age the exigences of party strife caused Jefferson to lose sight

Light. Facetious Tone.

At a base ball banquet in Cleve-
land, Neal Ball, the famous short
stop, who made last year the only
unassisted triple play in the history
of the major leagues, said in the
course of a neat humorous address:
women are more intelligent, on
the average, than men. Of that 1
am convinced. Why won't women,
then, learn to understand base ball?
I have new yet succeeded in max
ing clear to one woman the differ
ence between an unassisted triple
play and a foul fly.
$50, with the ladies, 1 adopt a
light, facetious tone in base ball
matters. A lady nee said to me-:
"I love base ball, Mr.. Ball. 1
love especially to watch the mar at
the bat. 1t is SO cute, too, the way
he keeps hitting the ground gently
with the bats end. Why does he do
that, thought
Well, you see, madam said I,
the worms have al annoying habit
of coming up to see who's batting,
and that naturally puts a mar out
a bit; so he just taps them on the
head lightly, and down they go.'"-

A Universal Want.

Enrico Caruso, at a supper at the
Cafe de POpera in New York, said
of the recent attempt to blackmail
him:
"These chaps want something for
nothing. They remind me Of Clio
vanni Nero.
Giovanni Nero sought out his
friend Paolo, who had a drinking bar
on the Corso in Rome.
"Paolo, my good FRIEND said
Giovanni, I am in sore need. Not a
drop of Chant has passed these lips
all day. Can you not help me, good
friend Paolo?'
"'Indeed l can help you,' said
Paolo heartily. L need an extra
waiter for carnival. week, and you,
Giovanni, are the very man.
"'What will you pay me for this
work. said the needy Giovanni
frowning.
"eWell,' was the reply, I half en-
gagged a stranger for tw%enty-one lire
three lire a day. But you are a
friend, Santa Maria, you shall have
five lire a day, my honest Giovanni.
Giovanni meditated.
"'See here he said, give me four
teen lire down and let the stranger
have his job. 1t comes to the same
thing in the end. '"-Washington

HoIIow-Eyed Look.

Congressman Carlin, of Virginia,
tells of a little country girl who Wis
tied city relatives who dwelt in a fiat.
Her visit lasted two weeks, and all
of the time they we're warning her
not to make so much noise; not to
run across. the street, and not to
waken the people in the adjoining
flats. In fact they were constantly
curtailing her freedom. When she
came home she told her papa she
never wanted to go to the city again,
and he said:
"You must have had a hard time
of it. You do look hollow-eyed."
well, papa" she said, IF you had
folks hollerin' at you all the time,
you'd look holler-eyed, too."-Wash-
ington Herald.

The Chinese Riots.

The immediate occasion of the riot
ing at Changsha, in the province OF
Human, appears to be the failure OF
the rice crop. With all their CEN
turtles of agrarian experience, the
Chinese have not yet learned to dis
tribute the surplus product of one
district to relieve the distress Of an
other. 1t may be that in one province
the cattle are driven into the fields to
feed and the crops are used as fuel,
while in an adjoining province the
people are starving. The market for
the rice crop is strictly a local me-.
While it is permissible to import
grain from abroad in any quantity de-
sired, grain Of any kind may not be
transported from one district to n
other without the express permission
of the government.-Philadelphia

Had a Spanking.

Senator Depew is credited with the
story that a telephone bell rang
sharply in the Office of a New York
lawyer and was answered by the lady
typewritist, who called the lawyer to
the phone. He answered testify:
"You see I'm too busy. Attend to
the call yourself"
"But this is your little girl at
home" said the young lady; "and
she insists upon talking to you"
The lawyer then took the phone
and asked:
''Who is this talking?"
"Dis is your baby, Nellie" came
the reply.

INCOME TAX MEASURE LOST

The vote was upon a motion to re-

by seventy-four to sixty-eight. While
parliamentary procedure would per-
NIT the resolution to be brought up
again, its most ardent advocates con-
cede that it has not a shadow of hope
of passing in this session.
Assemblymen Delano and E. Young,
Republicans, and Friend, Democrat,
who voted aye when the resolution

negative. A~ssemblymen Perkins and

Tha Treating Evil.

The American treating custom is
one of the most senseless, disgusting
and baleful of which this people can
be accused. Beginning with the men,
it has of recent years spread among
women and children to an alarming
degree, and to-day 1t extends far be-
yond it's early limit of drinks and
cigars to every kind of social ex-
pense.
Compared with the evils of the
tipping system, against which Amer
leans rail abroad, this habit of treat
ing is far more noxious and counter
to economic sense.
In its relation to the evils of drink
and extravaganza, treating is revealed
in its worst light. 1t is probably di-
rectly responsible for more drunken
ness and excessive expenditures for
drink than any other cause. Con.
ceived as an act of good-fellowship,
it is in reality a species of low patron
age on the part of the spender, while
it robs the recipient Of his inde-
pendent will.
So strongly intrenched has become
this idiotic custom, a relic of our
salad days as a people, that the in
dividual who stands aloof from it
brands himself as a crank and SUBJ
jects himself to the distasteful banter
and urging of his fellows.
AS few men have the moral cour-
age to go through such an experience
time and again, many who r op-
posed to treating submit to 1t with
bad grace, sacrificing principle and
money because of a silly custom

Genius and Poultry.

1t is remarkable what great intel
lects, from Darwin and Tegetmier
down, have interested themselves in
the science of poultry and pigeons.
The commercial side of this study has
reached its highest degree in the
American chicken market, the leader
of the world. A little special scien-
tifc knowledge will often save a
whole farm full of chickens, turkeys,
ducks and geese, and every family

bee and poultry books in plain, simple

read and study. Almost all children
