EAGER FOR APPEAL
TO SUPREME COURT
Lawyers and Business Men
Resent Restriction In Bill
/ Passed BY Senate.

Th District Bar Association and the
! Chamber of Commerce will probably
make an effort next week to have de-
! feated the bill. passed by the Senate on
/ Wednesday, making the District Court
of Appeals the court of last resort for
practically all litigation arising in
Washington.
Heretofore, the United States Supreme
Court has been open to appeal in all
cases in which more than 5000 was in
| voIved. The bill just passed by the Sen
ate cuts off appeals in all but the fol-
lowing cases:
Only Exceptions Provided.
% In cases in which the jurisdiction
of the trial court is in issue; but when
any such case is not otherwise review
able in said Supreme Court, then the
question Of jurisdiction alone shall be
certified to said Supreme Court for de-
cIslon.
% In prize cases.
60 In cases involving the construction
or application of the Constitution of
the United states. or the constitution
aIity of any law Of the United States, OF
the validity or construction of any
treaty made under its authority.
20 In cases i'll which the Constitution
or any law CT a state is claimed to be
in contravention of the Constitution of
the United States.
81 In cases in which the validity OF
any authority exercised under the Unit
ed States, or the exercise or scope OF
any power or duty of an officer of the
United States is drawn in question.
(6) In cases in which the construction
of any law of the United States is
drawn in question bv the defendant.
And, except as provided in the next
succeeding section. the judgments and
DEGREES of said court of appeals shall
be final in all cases arising under the
patent laws, the copyright laws, the
revenue laws, the criminal laws. and in
admu altv cases. Writs OF error and
appeals shall be taken within the same
time, in the same manner, ana Under the
same regulations as writs or errCr anu
appeals are taken from the circuit
cCt'rts of appeals TO the Supreme Court
of the United States.
Will Hold Conference This Week.
President Alexander II. Bell, OF the
Far Association: Nathaniel Wilson,
chairman Of the associations committee
on the appeal bill and \. Leftwich Sim
clair, chairman of the law and legisla-
ton committee of the Chamber of Com
mcrce. have held a conference to deter
mine what should be done TO head off
the passage of the bill by the House.
They arrived at no definite conclusion,
bat VIII confer again this week.
II is probable a movement for the
defeat OF the hill will re undertaken by
the association ard the Chamber, as
LAWYERS and business men generally feel
that the District is entitled to the right
of appeal to the Supreme Court as pro-
vided al present.
The senate bill was in the form OF an
amendment to the cCde revision bill,
aud was Offered by the Committee on
Judiciary. 1t was approved by mani
nous vote.

BRIGHTWOOD PARK
TRANSFER OF PUPILS

To the Editor of THE TINES:
1 would like to know the cause of
this discrimination in one of our pub
lie schools: The Brightwood Park
Public School. The children of class
2B are to be transferred to 3A, but
after January 81 class ga no longer
exists and the children of class 2B
will be COMPEL d to look elsewhere
for a school that has a class 3A, not
withstanding the fact that there is
ample room at said school to house
the class. They have the alternative
of remaining another year in class 2B.
There is no room at either the Bright
wood or Petworth schools and this
means our little ones would have to
go downtown, about two miles, by
themselves. These ChildEen range
from six to nine jSearS-truly a very
mature age for our little ones to risk
their lives going to and from school
over a street where traffic is as rapid
as it is on Georgia avenue at times,
where the automC5ilas beat the wind
and the cars go some, too. There are
thirteen little ones (the ill-fsE ed num-
ber) that are being Disseminated
against chat such a condition SpoUld
exist shows the incompetency and
loose methoss of those in charge. At
any rate some one has blundered and
places of Importance should not be
encuzsbe2ed by blunderers.

Editors Note-The conditions in the
Brightwood Park School a<e explained
to The Times as follows:
The third and fourth grades are ip
charge of one teacher. the principal OF
the school In grade Alb there are
twenty pupils; in grade 3B there are
the same number.
In making the midwinter transfers
nine pupils were promoted from grade
2B to ga. There is no grade ga, so
three of the pupils considered farther
advanced than the rest were placed in
3B, leaving six pupilS who must either
stay back or go about one and one
eighth miles to the Monroe. the near
est school with a ga grade.
Mr.. Hughes, assistant superintendent
OF schools, said that though this con-
dition was deplored, no other ar
rangement could be made, as the
Brightwopd Park is four-roem
school and no more work could be put
on the principal at that school.

complain against the house cleaning
apparatus?
The outcry by the Cannon paper and
the CLOSE friend" are not indicative OF
that spotless Innocence which defles
grand juries and snaps It's fingers in
the face Of investigation. Nothing
would go farther to rehabilitate Joe
Cannon as a rough, sturdy honest old
patriot than an investigation which
should show up the rude sincerity and
rugged merit OF the man-if he has
them.
Somehow the impression carries with
the protest that Cannon'S CLOSE friend
is afraid of what the grand jury may
conclude from the evidence. Its in
dignation does not ring true. II has
the characteristic of standpat argu-
,rlent, epittet and counter attack. There
is neither defense nor explanation In it.
Hearst may be the worst man on earth.

corruption. How about that?

ture 1t enacted one statute which Is
worth ali the cost OF the sesGon-the
so-cailed LAZY Husband LAW" This
Law is intended to put q large and con-
tempt;ble array OF the most worthless
human being on earth directly into the
working and wage earning class. When
fuse or neglect to labor for the sup
port OF their dependent families the
law turns them over 20 the sheriff for
a term Of years. The sheriff puts him
in the county working gang and an
officer sees that he works. The coun-
ty pays s1.50 per day 20 his family, di-
rect or indirectly for his labor and tries
to get It's moneys worth. Wheneve2

too much hysteraa and i1oggishness, not

BLASTING" CANNON.

The DAnviile Commercial News, a
Cannon newspaper conducted by a
CLOSE friend" Of Congressman Cannon,
frantically charges W. R. Hearst as an
ASSASSIN of character and says Hearst's
employees are to present certain evil
dence TO the VermilIon county grand
jury to the effect that Cannon used
large amounts OF money in Vermillion
county and that there was corruption
in every county of the district which

To the citizens OF Nevada, Iowa:
Numerous complaints having been
made at the mayors Office that chick
ems are being allowed to run at large
to the great detriment Of young fruit.
and newly made gardens. take this
method Of calling the attention Of our
people to the fact that there Is in force
an ordinance prohibiting fowls Of all
kinds from being at large between
March / and Nov. OF each year. Such
fowls may be taken up and impounded
either by the city marshal. or by the
person aggrieved on the written order
Of said city marshal. To release said
fowls fee Of Is cents must be paid
the marshal and an additional Is cents
for the fowl, making penalty OF 81 for
each fowl. All fowls impounded may
be sold at public sale by the officers.
Owners are also made liable for any
ia ma &c done by their trespassing ami
mails.
The ordinance has been thus fully
quoted that there can be no mistake az
to the rights and duties Of those who
own chickens and those who do not.
