The supreme court last saturday af
ternoon denied the application for a
supersedeas in the case of the sixteen
miners who were sentenced to jail for
contempt of his court by Judge Whit
ford. The only question involved in
the application for the isupersedeas
was the jurisdiction of Judge Whit
ford in the matter, and the court held
that under the circumstances Judge
Whitford had jurisdiction.
The claim of the defendants was
that they resided in district not with
in the boundaries of the district over
which Judge Whitford presided. They
maintained that the Judge had no right
to go outside his district and arrest
men and sentence them to contempt
of his court.
The claim of the plaintiff, as pre-.
sented to the court, was that the
United Mine Workers, as an organiza-
tion, was trying to injure the business
of the plaintiff, that the miners union
was trying to injure the business Of
the coal company. They contended
that the head office of this jurisdiction
that the head office of the coal com
pany was in Denver; that the fight
against the coal .company's business by
the miners union was arranged and
planned from Denver, and that there
fore the acts, either of the company
or of the miners union, originated in
Denver, and that inasmuch as the head
offices of both are in the city of Den
yer, Judge Whitford had jurisdiction.
Decision -Four to Three
The court therefore denied the super
sedeas because the Jurisdiction was the
only one touched upon by the attor'
neys for the defendants. Judge Mus
ser, White and Hill dissented from the
opinion. Judges Campbell, Gabbert,
Bailey and Garrigues rendered the ma
jority opinion.
The decision was distinct disap,
polhtmeht TO those VINO mad hoped tha5
the court would hold that Judge Whit
ford had no jurisdiction. 1t will also
probably have an extended bearing on
the attempt to impeach the judge.
which is now being considered by a
special committee of the house of rep.
resentatives.
Judge Pardons Prisoners
On Thursday afternoon, almost a
week after Judge Whitford had been
vindicated by the supreme court, he
had the incarceratei men brought be-
fore him and after making it very
plain to them that he was justified in
his former action and that he would
repeat it Of the men or any others vio-
lated his injunction, he pardoned them

A LESSON FROM JAPAN.

Only Big as Kansas, She Has More
Than 1000 Agricultural Schools.
Japan has about the area of Kansas,
but her percentage Of agricultural land
is about that of New Hampshire. II
doesn't look as II she would need many
agricultural schools. does it7 Most Of
her Yarns are so small that they would
about make a stack yard for one OF us.
Yet twenty-three years ago, says a
Japanese writer in Hoard's Dairyman,
Japan had six schools where farming
was taught And then came the twen-
ty years OF her most rapid progress.
China was defeated in war and then
the mighty Russia. The whole strength
of the nation was expended on those
things which would enable her to carry
the awful load Of army, navy and
bonded debt And what became Of the
six agricultural schools7
Instead of being allowed to dwindle
they have multiplied. until in 1908
there were in Japan 4,s75 agricultural
schoolsl
In these schools were enrolled 1872
200 pupils. and in that year there were
graduated from these schools eS,40e
children.

No Farmers Child Should contrset
Consumption These Days.
There is little doubt that large por-
tion of the cases Of tuberculosis among
farmers has its origin in the low, close,
unventilated sleeping rooms common
IN the story and a half dwelling. To
save a little in the cost Of lumber the
farmer has. unwittingly no doubt. pre-
pared conditions the most favorable
for the development of germs, which
may at any time find lodgment in the
lungs OF his children. case is cited
where four boys and girls, born OF ro-
bust parents, but compelled to pass
their nights in close, half story rooms,
were carried of by consumption al
most as soon as they reached maturity,
while to their ancestry the disease was
unknown. The so called bungalow type
Of dwelling is little more than a re-
vival, under another name, Of the old,
palmer. pestiferous story and a half
dwelling.
If the owner win only sleep on its
wide porch winter and summer he
may afford to live in 1t. But to sleep
in a room whose ceiling will not allow
one to stand upright except on a
limited portion of the floor and where
the air space is totally insufficient for
health is enough to commit slow
suicide. II high ceilings are anywhere
desirable, that where" is In sleeping
rooms.
