New York. May 3.-Attorney Cen
eral Wickersham declared last night
at the banquet given to Lloyd @.
Griscom. chairman of the Republi-
Ioou organization in New York coun-
Ity by the 29th District Assembly
club that he Is satisfied with his po-
sition as a cabinet officer in spite OF
the fact that whatever one does in
public employment is the subject of
criticism" and that his Office Zen
tails laborious days and involves the
exercise of great responsibilities"

publican party and urging co-opera-
tion among members Of the organi-
zation in helping to carry. out the
pledges OF the party. Mr.. Wicker
sham accused the insurgents" with
out mentioning them by that title.
of impeding at this time the work
OF the national administration by the
lessenlng of party cohesion and party
discipline"
The revelations of the demorali-
zation of the customs service" he
said. have taught clearly the need
of removing the customs service alb
solutely from partisan political In
luence and a reorganization of its
administration so as to prevent a re-
currenee OF these offenses and to free
the service from all reproach.
Majority Rule. ~
All students of government, he
declared, recognize the fact that the
success of American institutions has
resulted from the peaceful submis-
sion of the minority to the rule of
the majority; and the success of ma
jority rule has been the result OF
the application of the same doctrine
in party affairs Referring to a re-
cent statement by a Democrats sem
ator to the effect that "all men who
think one way must necessarily be
Republicans and all who think the
other way must necessarily be Demo-

KNOX WIRES HIS PLEASURE.

Bluefields. May 3.-The Central
American court of justice at Cartago
today appealed to Estrada and Mad
riz 10 declare an armisthce of eight
days during which the court, acting
as mediator. will endeavor to restore
peace. The move is the decision OF
Central American republics to end
the war which has been so disastrous
to the commerce OF Nicaragua and
has damaged the business interests
Of other countries.
Washington, May S.-When Knox
heard OF the proposed armistice. he
cabled a congratulatory message 20
the international court at Cartago,
intimating that such a method is
highly satisfactory to the United
States.
Despite the efforts for peace, there
is strong possibility Of further con-
iict. Consul Oliyares, at Managua
reported today that Irias. appointed
by Madriz as commander at the At
lsntic coast, has left, presumably for
Greytown TO take charge OF opera
tions there. Estrada's agent In
Washington, DR.. Castrillo, said today
the post OF Greytown was blochaded
by insurgents. according to advices
from Estrada himself. This is be-
lieved 20 mean that the revolutionists
will attempt 10 prevent the landing

Orleans Friday with arms and am

healthy was urged, and he stated that
In order to have cows which were
healthy, well developed and capable
of producing the best results, the
calves must be given proper attention.
He said the idea that young animals
could be left to themselves, without
care, was a mistake. Such animals
might be stunted, unhealthy, and
could not be expected to be the equals
of those which were given proper
treatment when young.
The dairying business will be fur
tier considered by Prof Barnes dur
ing the course, and he will speak sgain
tomorrow.
Prof. Keffer Talks Of Orchards.
Prof. Keffer continued his discus
sion of the orchard question at this
session, considering the matter Of till
age, protection from frost, etc., and ad-
vanced some most excellent ideas, all
of very practical nature. He show
ed the necessity of cultivation for the
young trees, and warned his audience
not to plant corn in the young or
chard, thus shutting out the sun, and
cousing the trees to grow very tall
and slim. Potatoes, tomatoes and
melons, or cereals, such as wheat, rye,
etc, might be planted.
He said that crimson clover was
good for young orchards, and chat
peas or clover plowed under at the
proper season were beneficial.
He said that the principal problem
in raising fruit was not the question
OF frost, as that had been practically
solved by coal and oil pots, but from
disease to the trees. This latter ques-
ton he will discuss later.

SOME COURTS REFUSE TO ACT

Bu WILLIAM w. MORROW,
Judge of the United States ircuit Cour

nave followed for years Justice Brewers idea
that no reversal of decision should be made save
in a case where | believe there has been direct
miscarriage OF justice
| am opposed to tcchnicalities serving as the
base of such action.
These ideas of Justice Brewers practically
all embodied in the resolutions passed by the
American bar association year or so since at the
meeting in Seattle, and are becoming more and
more the practice
Not only are the United States courts following
these principles but some OF the state courts are
introducing this plan of procedure. Particularly is
this true in one of the southern statcs--Alabama,
I think. | may say that l agree heartily with
Justice Brewers remarks.
