Another Vacancy On The Supreme Bench

The resignation of Associate Justice
Moody from the supreme bench OF the
United States makes it obligatory upon
Mr.. Taft to exercise for the third time
within the space Of six months the appoint.
ing power Of the chief executive in filling
vacancies upon the nations highest trib-
unal.
It is not an easy task to choose the ora:
Giles who are to interpret the fundamental
law of the land.
But Mr.. Taft has been happier in choos.
ing occupants for the supreme bench than
in naming holders Of portfolios in the
presidents cabinet.
Both Lurton and Hughes are exception
ally strong men. The former has already
demonstrated the wisdom Of his appoint
ment by his vigorous and comprehensive
grasp Of Of the duties OF his office. The
latter will not assume the ermine until
next fall; but his eminence as a lawyer
his charleave no roomfor skepticism con-
corning his rare sand peculiar qualifica-
tons.
Human life uncertain. When Associate
Justice Moody, after relinquishing the
cabinet went upon the supreme pencil in
1906 he was in the prime Of life. To be ex-
act, he was in his ffty-fourth year. The
prospect OF an uninterrupted career OF
public service lay before him. But ere
twelve months had elapsed the clutch OF
die"soa was upon him. Some time last
year he was forcedt to abandon Washington,
Iur LIle time being at least: and bidding his
colleagues adieu he tnrned his face toward
the hills Of New England.
But evidently his quest for the magic
elixir has thus far proved unayailing:,
More than a years absence has failed to
restore him to health.
Consequently, in justice to his overworked
associates on the supreme bench he has
finally rendered his resignation, to take
effect as soon as the president can name
his successor.
The whole contry will unite in the hope
that relief from the duties incident to high
official position will prove an effective ally
TO medical skill in prolonging the useful
life Of the distinguished iurist.
Nh. Taft himself would no doubt like to
exchange his present uneasy chair of office
for an ~inconspicus seat in the quiet court
room Of the capitol.
His temperament is intensely judicial. The
restless sea of politics is not to his liking;
and just now when he is toiling among
the breakers, he would doubtless give
much to enjoy the peace Of mind which
prevails in the serene atmosphere OF the
bench.
Twice before he has experienced the tor
ture Of Tantalus. Yet once more the pangs
are renewed. Poor Mr.. Taft! One of the
sweetest natures in the world has been
cruelty sacrificed to make an unhappy
president.-Atlanta Georgian.

missal. Ballinger refused and pro-
NOTED this employee. What an object
lesson to the army of government en-
ployes Graft, betrayal Of government
interests, neglect of public duties-a
host of evils lie In the wake OF such
a precedent.
CD When an employee goes to the
president with charges against his
chief, they are referred to an employe
Of that chief or course. the president
may get the help OF others. He could
secure the aid Of some disinterested
outsider, II he was unable TO give the
matter the necessary time himself-as
Gov. Hughes did with the charges
against Jerome. But to refer them
to an employe Of the accused Is I'M
heard Of. It turns out now not only
that LawIer was Ballinger's underling,
but had a personal grievance against
CLAWS because the latter had preferred
charges against Lawler some years be-
fore. What business house would take
such a course? 1t Is an object lesson
to every government employe, saying:
Keep your mouth shut or lose your
Job. Would the postal frauds and Gus
toms frauds have ever been unearthed
and punished II Roosevelt had taken
the same course?
These things present a sickening
record. The administration discharges
honest and capable employees and pro-
notes those who have betrayed the
peoples interest. 1t matters not what
a partisan majority OF the investigat-
ing committee may report, because In
the great court OF public opinion the
Taft administration has been found
guilty Of permitting practices that are
against the efficiency and integrity Of
the public service.
The Detroit times., 1910-05-26

One OF the important results or the
Ballinger investigation has been the
disclosure Of the attitude Of the Taft
administration toward its subordin-
ates.
ID No subordinate can make any
communication TO congress without
the. consent of the chief of his depart
ment. That Is, Mr.. Pinchot, one OF
the greatest forestry experts in the
! world, could not tell the peoples rep
resentatives what he and his expert
assistants knew without the consent
of the secretary of the department OF
agriculture, who might know nothing
about forestry, or be a politician and
have friends TO reward. In our navy
and war departments the experts
whom the nation educates at its ex-
pense at Annapolis and West Point
cannot tell congress the results Of
their professional experience without
the consent of a civilian navy or war
secretary, who knows nothing OF naval
or military science. Besides, the sec
rotary may be a politician, and his
friends may be interested in suppress
ing the facts.
What Is the necessity for this rule?
Roosevelt did not have anything or
the kind. Such a rule tends 70
destroy initiative and to reduce high
grade experts TO the rank OF clerks.
The most capable men will not serve
under such conditions. Finally, II
tends to promote fraud by preventing
publicity.

The archbishop experimental. found
he was right, and breathed easier. A
very difficult situation all around was
saved.
But the Platt.Roosevelt pinch was
OF still another sort. Roosevelt, ac-
cording to the memoirs. had agreed
that he would not absolutely declipe
