AN ANNOUNCEMENT

From the beginning of the coming
week Colonel R. S. Turk will have full
editorial charge of the Dispatch and
News. The owners are pleased to make
this announcement and feel assured
that it will be received with general
appreciation. 1t would be presumptu-
Gus for this pen to attempt and intro
duction of Colonel Turk to the people
of Staunton and augusta comfy. But,
fortunately, no such introduction is
needed. AS Editor Of the Spectator
Vindicator, Colonel Turk, for many
years, has held prominent place in
local journalism and his opinions are
recognized and valued by his contem-
poraries throughout the State. AS has
been stated he will have complete
charge of the editorial department Of
this paper and in the future will shape
its policies in the questions that may
arise. With larger staff and increas-
ed facilities for gathering the news al
his disposal he will assist the present
owners in giving to the people OF this
section the best home newspaper they
have ever had. Further announcement
will be made.-Dispatch and News

THE NEW JUSTICE.

The newspapers and many distin-
guished men have seemingly put
themselves out, in adulation of Gov.
Hughes, who has been appointed by
the president to 1.-THE Supreme Conrt
bench. Gov. Hughes is in character
spotless, and in ability up to the gen.
eral standard Of those who occupy
that position. No complaint can be
made-of him in any Of those attri-
butes which go to make him a good and
even a great man, but he has never
held any judicial position nor decid-
ed any case which had in it enough. to
enable his friends even, to say that
he has a judicial mind He is OF
the reform school, though this is
purely az gubernatoinal disease, and
he maybe excused for that. There
has been so much need of reform III
New York since he came into proml-
nence that if he had not been re-
former he would have been sorry
governor. We have nothing to fear
that in so far as he can do, so ON the
Supreme Court he will maintain his
present reputation in that line. Our
only objection to Gov. Hughes is that
he like secretaries Wickersham, Knox
Dickinson and other cabinet officers
is thoroughly impregnated with cor
poration virus, that he comes from
New York City where trust is the only
air breathed, that he never has asso-
GATED with the world as it is, but
with it only as New York looks on it,
and that trust, corporations and a
central bank of issue, will find pecul-
| lar favor in his construction of the
laws. The idea for which Justice
Brewer fought so hard will now be
overthrown, that is that the Con,
stitution could not be amended by
JUDICIAL construction Justice Brew
er held to the Constitution and that
judges cannot change it. We expect
to see it changed soon to suit the in
dividual views of the party in power

Bjorson Dead.

Paris, April q. -Bornstjerne Bjorn-
son, the Norwegian poet, novelist anC
dramatist, reformer and advocate of
universal peace, died here last night
surrounded by his family. His end
was peaceful.
Bjornstjerne Bjornson was born at
Kvikne, Osterdalen Norway, Deem
Der 8, 1882. For short time he was
editor of the journal Aftenbladet, in
Christiana.
Bjornson's first novel, "SynnOeye
Solbakken,'' appeared in 1857, and
on the celebration of it's fiftieth ami
versary at Christaina the novelist re-
ceived an enormou number of greet
ings from all countries. 1t was fol-
lowed by ''Arne, sketch of Norwee-
gian country life; ga Happy Boy"
AM" The Fishermaiden, both stories
of the the peasantry. AS lyric poet
Bjorson took high rank.

A. A. SPROUL.

The death of Mr.. Archibald A.
Sproul which occurred lin this City
Tuesday while on visit from his
home in New York to relatives here,
came as a distinctive shock. The
country can ill afford to lose such
men, and this community especially
mourns such loss because he is Of US.
Born in this county Oh farm, in a
home where intelligence, frugality
and mortality were characteristic,
he not only inherited virtues but i'm
bibed them from his surroundings.
His life of civil engineer had called
him away from the scenes of his boy
hood, but those he left behind follow.
ed his career, as he mounted round by
round, toward the summit of his pro-
fession, and rejoiced that he made
good at each upward step. In the
midst of youthful mental and manly
vigor, when there lay before him sc
broad a field of usefulness, to be thus
cut down, is peculiarly sad. We
mourn with those who mourn.

Insurgents in Charge.

Washington, April 27.-The motion
to strike out the court of commerce
features of the Administration Rail
road bill was defeated in the House
Yesterday afternoon by tie vote OF
40 to 140 Representative Bennett,
of New York was in the chair and
cast the vote which made it a tie.
This was the climax of an exciting
session of the House, lin which the
Democrats and insurgent Republicans
practically took charge of the House
as they have done twice before this
session.
Upon the motion of Mr.. Hubbard
of Iowa, to strike out the entire para
graph relating to a commerce court,
Mr.. Bennett, of New York, in the chair
announced that the vote was 131 to
1870, and then announced his own vote
in the negative, which defeated the
motion.
Mr.. Fitzgerald, Of New York, pro-
tested that the Chair had not right
to vote in such case, but this point
of order was quickly overruled.
A demand for vote by tellers was
made. While this vote was being
taken Speaker Cannon came into the
House from his private room to vote
with the party organization The vote
by tellers was 14O to 139, Mr.. Bennett
again voting in the negative. This
tie vote defeated the motion to strike
out the provision.
+ The defeat Of the motion was &C
complished only after the greatest &C
tivity ON the part Of the majority tC
summon regular Republicans
A rather spectacular feature of this
vote was the hurried entrance Of the
Speaker without a collar, he having
been called from his private room I'M
expectedly, when there was not a
moment to waste in the work of max
ing a toilet.

Beware Of Ointments for Catarrh
that contain Mercury,

as mercury will surely destroy the sense

SMALL SALARIES.

It has given Hon. John G. Spooner,
who as we recall resigned from the
Senate few years ago to practice law
much pain to contemplate that our
American Judiciary is so far under
paid Here are some salaries as now
paid, and which he bemoans since he
himself draws $50, 600 from one great
corporation.
Chief justice of the supreme court
$4,000, = associated justices 1850,
circuit judges, 1000, district judges,
6,OOO
That Judge of a United States
court should receive a smaller salary
than the Police magistrates of Lon
don, New York or Chicago, pains
Mr.. Spooner. These complaints
which he makes in recent speech
are not particularly convincing. The
public these days does not reckon a
salary of one person by the salary OF
another, any more than a community
NAV have it's taxes increased, and not
complain because some other COM
munity not so rich pays more taxes.
A salary is regulated largely by the
Government and States according to
what its people think the best men
can afford to serve them for. The
president of the United States gets
only $50, 900, actual salary whilst the
president OF a Life Insurance Com
pany in New York for years got
500, 1000. 1t was stated during a
period when effort was being made to
increase the salary of the President
that other Rulers, got vastly more
than he in countries far beneath ours
in Importance wealth and responsible
ity. We believe the Sultan of Tur-
key was accredited with an income
from his Office of many millions.
The fact therefore that some police
Justice or other puisne judge may get
a larger salary seems no argument at
all. The only real question; is what
salary should these judges get i'll Or
der to insure us the ablest and best
men? At..least this ought to be the
test. However in this day and gener-
alton when many of the judges espec-
tally of the courts inferior to the U.
S. supreme court, are political fav-
orites, placed there by reason not OF
merit but of Pull" the public. Xviii
not fall over itself to increase their
salaries, because even now theyAare
often getting more than theyare worth
AS to the Supreme court judges, this
cannot be said. Their salaries ought
to be much larger. They have to live
extensively, because of the position
they occupy; they have social duties
to perform and certain rules must be
observed. Our National Capital
where they must reside is an expen-
sive place. They should not be
cramped for means, and as their po-
stiions are far more important than
most any other in our government
those positions should be dignified
with ample salaries so as to put them
above want. AS to the others we are
net SO sure.

Ships to Pass Through Ahead of
Time.

"The Panama Canal will be open
early in 1914. -
This is an unofficial declaration to-
day from the highest official source.
There is possibility even that it will
be completed and ready for the pas
sage Of ships slightly before that time.
The same authority, however, re-
fuses to changessthe official announce
ment that the work will be completed
in 1915. The latter date is used be-
cause they do not wish to take any
chances ON making good'' and dis
appointing those who wish to cele-

But barring slides of unusual pro-
portions, labor troubles resulting in

that the waterway will be open at

seems to have been the easiest yet.
Eddie Fay and Dick Harris who rob-

bills of lading for cotton alleged to

the English cotton merchant to find
his cotton as best he could. 1t was
only a shrewd banking scheme i'll

of forgery. No wonder the English

The American Expedition which
was to 'sNail'' the flag to the South
Pole, will not go hunting it for a
while. Notwithstanding no one
lives there, or near there, no expen-
sive hotels are to be stopped at. nor
fetes to be attended or given, and no
body to be tipped, by the pole seekers,
the expedition has collapsed for want
of the necessary funds. The finding
of the North Pole by two Americans
so recently has satisfied the American
public, and it would not come across

GOV. HUGHES ACCEPTS

Washington, April &c. Governor
Charles E. Hughes, of New York,
has been appointed to the vacancy on
the bench of the United States Su-
preme Court and has accepted the
place.
The nomination went to the Senate
yesterday afternoon shortly after the
President had received Governor
Hughes acceptance. Immediately af-
terward the following statement was
issued at the White House:
"The President, by letter of April
%, rendered the appointment to the
Supreme Bench to succeed Justice
Brewer to Governor Charles E. Hugh
es of New York, and by letter of
April "a Governor Hughes accepted.
''In the Presidents letter to Cover
nor Hughes he told him that as the
Supreme Court would adjourn its
hearings this week the person appoint
ed would not be called upon to dis
charge any judicial functions until
the opening of the October term on
the second Monday in October, and
that therefore if Governor Hughes
could accept he might continue to dis
charge his duties as Governor until
his qualifications on the day of the
opening of the court in October next.
"This was a material factor in Gov
ernor Hugher's acceptance. Accord
ingly if the nomination is confirmed,
and there is every reason to believe ii
will be, Governor Hughes qualifica-
ton will not take place until .Octo-
ber."
Not only is the appointment uni
versally accepted in Washington as the
best that could have been made but
the concession is just as general thai
his elevation to the bench will be OF
"far-reaching political effect, ellml
mating from the Presidential race, IL
the opinion of many, a man Wh(
would have been a powerful and pc
tential factor. There are other shrewt
observers of political movements wht
believe that the appointment vii
have no appreciable effect upon thu
next Presidential nomination. Thos'
holding this view assert that the nom
nation in 1912 will go either to Taf
or to Roosevelt. They also believ
that the trend is less toward the re
nomination of Taft, and daily create
in the direction of the nomination
his predecessor as his successor in tn
White House.
