WHY PRESIDENT OPPOS.
ES THE RECALL OF
JUDGES

''This provision of the Arizona
constitution, in it's application to
county and state judges seems to
me so pernicious in its effect, so
destructive of independence in
the judiciary, so likely to subject
the rights of the individual to
the possible tyranny Of a popu-
lar majority and, therefore, to
be so injurious to the cause of
free government, that | must
disapprove constitution con-
tanning it."
"All have recognized that the
majority of a people. unrestrain-
ed by law, when aroused and
without the SOLDERING effect of
elaboration and discussion, may
do injustice to the minority or
the individual when the selfish
interest of the majority shall be
permitted to provide the course
of the government only under
controlling checks that expert
ence has shown to be necessary
to secure for the minority it's
share of the benefit to the whole
people that a popular govern
ment is established to bestow."
I'm proper sense. judges are
servants of the people. But they
are not popular representatives.
On the contrary, to fill their of
flee properly, they must be in
dependent. They must decide
every question which comes be-
fore them according to law and
justice. President Taft.

A matched game, two out of three
had been arranged between the local
players and two Echo men. Echo
got one set of the three.
The visitors had thoroughly good
time and came home boosting the up

combatants. 1t is likely1that other
matches will be arranged ::..in the
future if Echo feels thatIbetter sue

WIRE VICTIMS
T0START SUIT
Henry Winter and Mrs. Stew
enson Still Suffer From
Live Wire Shock.

More serious results than were
anticipated may follow from the I'M.
fortunate accident in which Henry
Winter and Mrs. James Stevenson
were injured by coming in contact
with live wire. 1t was supposed
that they would rapidly recover
from the shock but both are still in
a highly nervous condition and their
final recovery will be matter of
some time.
AS result it is said that each will
start suit against the Northwestern
Telephone company asking damages
The contention is that when the
phones of that company were re-
moved from the residences the wires
should have been taken down. In
some cases, at least, this was not
done, and these wires coming in con-
tact with the electric light wires are
charged and dangerous. The. cleo
trio light company is Of course not
at all responsible for this condition.

COUNTIES MAY
FIRE NURSES
law Authorizes Commission
ers to Pay Visiting Nurses
To Fight tuberculosis
FOUR COUNTIES HAVE THEM.
If Successful the Work Will be
Put on Permanent Basis
Soon

One of the bright spots in the
}record of the last legislature was
the passage of the law authorizing
county boards of commissioners to
employ or contribute toward the
support of visiting nurse to give
instruction in the home of the con-
sumptive so as to avoid. sthe spread
of the disease to other members OF
the family and to a limited extent
take the place of hospital treatment.
Four Counties Have Nurses
This law, Chapter 116, Laws OF
1911, was introduced in the Senate
by Mr.. Sundberg and in the House
by Mr.. Mattson at the instance OF
DR.. G. S. Wattam of Warren, a
member of the State Sanatorium Adj
yisory Commission. While visiting
nursing is by no means as effective
a measure to combat the white
plague as provision of hospitals and
.sanatoriums, yet it is. good half
way measure and the law providing
for it will do a great deal of good.
Four counties have. already taken
advantage of this law and appropri-
ated enough money to start the
work. The counties are Marshall,
Stevens, Todd and Kandiyohi.
More Money. Coming
If the work proves successful as
surances have been given that
enough money to put the work on a
permanent basis will be forthcom-
ing.
Those who are familiar with the
surroundings of consumptives in the
country will appreciate the need of
extending visiting nursing to the
country. In Dunn county, Wiscon-
sin, canvass showed only AZ per
cent of consumptives having sep
arate room and Is per cent sleeping

mon dipper in such families is pro-

dishes and body linen unheard of in
most of them.
Relative Can Hardly Escape
Splitting into containers open to
flies is another common practice.
The delicate brother or baby sister
of the consumptive constantly ex-
posed to infection in these ways can
hardly hope to escape the disease.
tCarelessness is not by any means
confined to the poorer families.
Nine out of ten consumptive homes

supervision and it is very gratifying
that rural as we'll as urban commun-
tiles are beginning to take this view
of the situation.

Of raise
For Nick From
Prominent Men

The following expressions of ap-
probation Of MIR. Hunter came free
ly from those who have known him
for quarter of a century and feel
that it was good to know him.
A Good Citizen Gone.
J. P. Cooper: Mick Hunter was
loving husband and kind father.
Though in poor health for years. he
was always working to the limit of
his strength so that his family might
enjoy all the advantages he could
possibly give them. He was careful
and painstaking in all his business
transactions and any work entrust-
ed to him was we'll and faithfully
done. He was honest and upright,
a good neighbor and always loyal to
his friends.
A Good Man Gone.
Senator Frank Clague: "a good
man gone. He was a lovable and
kind-hearted man. A most efficient
public servant. Afflicted for many
years by poor health, but patiently
borne by him, with cheerful word
for all, and harsh word for none.
Not cursed by riches, but blessed
with the greatest wealth man can
have, an honest name. Nick Hunt
er is dead in body, but not in the
memory of his friends"
A Prominent Citizen.
Major M. E. Powell: "The sudden
death Of N. V. R. Hunter removes
from earth's activities one Of the
most prominent and highly respect
ed citizens of Redwood Falls. For
more than a quarter Of a century he
was living personality in this vicin-
| ity. steadfast friend and a pains
taking official. He will be sadly
missed"
Marked By His Humanity.
Judge A. C.. Dolliff: In the Is
years of acquaintance with Mr.. Hun
ter. think what, perhaps more than
anything else, attracted people to
him was his humanity. He was not
removed into an atmosphere of cold,
impersonal intellectually. His
emotions are recognized as being
ours. His strong likes and dislikes
made him very human, and so he
came nearer to mems hearts per.
haps than he did to their intellects.
which, after all. is the attainment
one should seek in life; to try and
get nearer the hearts Of men, nearer
their emotions, nearer their best in
stincts."
always A Friend To Me-"
DIR. E. A. Lyman: twenty-five
years Of association and Nick was al
ways friend to me. Always the
same, gentle. considerate, thinking
more of the happiness of others than
of his own suffering. | have rarely
seen man who so bravely endured
in the face Of almost constant suf-
fering. / can add nothing that will
emphasize his real worth and man.
hood"
His Heroic Endurance.
Fl. A. Baldwin: Nov that he
has passed on, what can we say? He
was always saying words of cheer to
us. of comfort, of encouragement,
SAYING them not so much by speech
as by his daily life. That his was q
rare character Of gentleness and
heroic endurance everyone knows

May Be Held Thursday

N. V. r. Hunter died Monday aft
ernoon at Neutral, Crow Wing
county.
H. N. Bell received telegram
from Frank Kenney. with whom
Mr.. Hunter was staying, announcing
the sad news and informing him
that the body was in Brainerd. Mr..
Bell left at once and will return to-
morrow morning with the remains.
Illness Sent Him North.
About a month ago Mr.. Hunter
went north expecting .sto recover
his health in the invigorating eli
mate Of the northern part of the
state. For time he appeared to
be improving and his letters home
were full of enthusiasm.sa nd conf
dence.
Kenney Statessthe Facts.
The real state of affairs first came
out when Charles Kenney received
letter from his brother saying that
Mr.. Hunter was in bad shape, suf-
fering with Bright's sdisease. Still
no alarm was experienced as it was
not supposed he was in immediate
danger.
Long Suffered With Asthma.
For years Mr.. Hunter was a suf-
ferer with asthma but it was COM
paratively recently that his suffer-
ing was increased by the other dis
ease. 1t is supposed here that his
death was caused primarily by
Bright's disease.
Plan Masonic. Funeral.
Arrangements have been made for
Masonic funeral, the Blue Lodge
to have charge of the services and
meeting will be held this evening
to make final plans The Knight
Templars will act as an escort and
the Knights of Pythias will attend
the funeral in a body.
We're at First Doubtful.
Mr.. Hunters friends, as numer-
Gus as the citizens of Redwood, re-
fused at first to believe the report
when the word of his death was first
flashed around town. The fact that
the message came to Mr.. Bell and
not to the family lent an air of in
credulity to the statement until it
was considered that Mr.. Kenney
had decided it was better to inform
some of the friends of the family
and let them break the sad news.
News Carried by C. ". Everett and
DIR. Lyman.
This was what was done. 1t fell
to the lot of c. V. Everett and DIR.
E. A. Lyman to tell Mrs. Hunter
and the daughters Of the death.
They performed their delicate task
with consumate skill and impaired
the news as gently as possible.
Mrs. Hunter was nearly Frustrated
with grief when the import Of the
situation was conveyed to her.

FOR NEW HITCH RACK
City Council Purchase Property at
Third Avenue and First Street

The city council of Oskaloosa has
completed the purchase OF property,
almost in the heart of the city, that
will be used as additional hitching &C
commodations for the farmers OF
Mahaska county. A deed is now in
the possession of the city for the
quarter block at the intersection OF
First street and Third avenue, known
as the DR.. r. c. Hoffman property.
This transfer, which was completed
today, will give the city two lots,
each 6Ox12O feet. This will allow
ample room for hitching ground. The
two residences on these lots will be
moved later. The city will take no
steps at present to remove these
houses and fit the grounds with hitch
racks. The reason for the purchase
is thus explained: The city council

ton at a reasonable figure decided
they were doing the right thing. The
