To the Editor Of the Evening Star:
How long will the abuses committed
by the justices of the peace c%ontlnueY
These snen are the smallest kind OF
thieves. Grating as they do on people
no are ignorant of u laws n Gus
toms, they carry on a flourishing trade
and none of the offensc they commit
seems sufficient to wipe them out, as
they deserve.
With few honorable exceptions. these
Justices violate all laws of decency.
| Attention has teen called to their prac-
tises time after time and still it goes
on. A common practise Is for them to
at a time when 1t is impossible to get a
Judge to take bail and thereby frighten
people Innocent OF crime into doins
what their client wishes.
Getting paid by the State for each
warrant they issue, 1t Is, Of course, to
their interest to serve as many as pos
sible.
Is there no way to stop it? Are we
such sheep, are we SO immersed in our
own affairs, that we cannot spare a
little while to look into these things?
These men are wise enough never to
try these things on a person Nho might
make trouble for them, who might carry
1t through to a finish. Unfortunately,
we are SO busy with our own affairs
that we never care a rap what ecomes
Of those who annot help themselves.
But / should think that the proper
authorities could taxi the matter Up.
seeing the amount of public.t y these
justices have gotten of late.
In all justice, l would / Ike to say that
there are a few among them who are
honorable gentlemen, who understand
the nature of their office and the laws.
and administer them In a proper man
ner.
Hoping to see q change o 10 In an
evil that is SO fragrant. l am. respect

Sunday Feast" of the 9th inst, and in
which 1t is alleged "Kalisch Gives Din

pure and malicious invention OF the
writer of 1t and untrue In every par

No Popular Election Of senators.

NO Popular Election OF Senator'S.
To the Editor of the Evening Star:
l wish to make an appeal against
the popular election Of United States
senators. It may be an undemocratic
principle to PROFOUND, but the fact re-
mains that the nearer we come to real
popular elections the tIrther are the
men from making the idea representa-
tive.
Lest 1 injure the feelings Of some
well-meaning individuals. l will re-
Newark.
Take the situation abroad. In Eng
land the council Is elected and this
body, in turn, elects the aldermen and
mayor. Anyone who Is acquainted with
conditions there knows that there Ii a
vast difference between h calibre of
the aldermen and the councilmen.
Seldom, with few exceptions, do the
people elect the best nan available for
any office. In this country the men
who form the cabinet. while they may
not be the best men in the country, are
certainly the best men available. These
men are appointed by one man prac-
tlcally. The same Is true OF the judges
of the Supreme Court. Perhaps the
senators do not Measure up to the
standard OF the men who form the
cabinet; that, I believe, is because they
are selected by larger bodies of men.
The difference between the senators
and the n.,mbers of the lower nous
Is go apparent that 1t Is hardly worth
me ntioning.
What is true Of the national govern
ment is true Of State and municipa
affairs. Does anyone believe for a mo-
ment that the men who make up oul
legislative and aldermanic bodies woult
be the men they are II they were ap'
pointed by one man, or selected by {
small body Of men?
Take y evil of the justices Of thu
men and their practices; they are elect
ed. How do they measure up to tn
avsrage police Judge? Why, there /
no comparison at all, and SO on dow
the line.
It is true that of the men selecte'
their honesty does not come UP to thei
ability at times. II l were given tn
choice / would rather have in office al
intelligent rogue than an honest ZOO
but even this argument fails when 1t
seen hat many Of the men elected
Office are incompetent rascals.
With all due respect to all the Presi
dents Of the United States, how man
Of them will live in history? If tn
Senate selected our presidents woul
we have Such men as-oh, well. the
are dead; let them rest.
am neither bold enough nor bi
enough 20 argue for the selection an
not the popular election Of all our put
lie officers. Int In the name OF commo
se.lse let the Senate stand as 1t Is;
lsometimes r to neutralize tf
lower house Of Congress. The poop
are not yet intelligent enough 70

Douglas looked surprised, then ad-

It developed that the young man., who

Douglas did not know that, but Mott

This is not a bad idea. But do these

when the President of this country Is
inaugurated? Do they object as

in this country for similar purposes, or
do they object now only because OF

one of the best colleges in the west,
as it stands today, with an enroll
ment OF sixteen hundred students.

highest honors of the class and will
give the valedictory. Her sister,
Miss Margaret Hamilton has grades

MARY ELLIS MARRIES
CECIL R. CALLAHAN
Popular Young People Surprise the
Town by the Announcement of
their Wedding

kennewick was given surprise
Monday when the residents learned
of the marriage of Miss Mary Ellis
and Cecil r. Callahan, which took
place at the Methodist parsonage in
Pasco, Monday morning at 11:3O,
Rev. Harmon, pastor, officiating.
Mrs. +. D. Ellis, mother of the
bride, and +. S. Callahan and Lee
Callahan, father and brother of the
groom, were the only witnesses of
the ceremony.
The bride was gowned in an at
tractive travelling suit of pale gray.
Mr.. and Mrs. Callahan left shortly
after the wedding for Seattle where
they will make their permanent
home.
Neither of the young people need
any introduction to residents of this
city as they have lived in kenne-
wick for several years and are well
known. The bride is the only
daughter of the city marshall, Ed.
Ellis, and was employed at the
Princess Theatre for some time pre-
vious to her marriage. Cecil CAL
lahan has been clerking at the Tul-
les Drug Store most of the time dur
ing the past year. Both have been
favorites among the younger set and
have been leaders wherever social
fun and pranks Of all descriptions
have been concerned.
Although the romance OF the
happy couple has been a product OF
the past two years, no one thought
it to be other than an attachment
common to kid days." and their
| marriage was distinctly surprise
even to their most intimate assocl-
ates.
It is the wish of the Courier and
their many other friends through
out the valley that their matrimoni-
ial venture may be productive OF
much happiness for them both with
success attending their career as Mr..
and Mrs. G.. r. Callahan.

MELONS AND
STRAWBERRIES
:, .,e.a,ortaee Of Peach Crop Will be
Offset by Larger Shipments
Of Small Fruits

A. de Regt, local manager OF the
Yakima Valley Fruit Growers AS
sociation in speaking of the fruit
prospects for the season, is inclined
- look more optimistically upon the
resrlts Of the frost than many. He
says that there will be good crop
II apples, while the melon and
strawberry shipments from the val
lev will exceed those of any previous
year While the frosts have taken
the early berries, there will still be
a seven-eights of a full crop to put
on the market, and on account OF the
new fields which will bear fruit for
the first time this year, the entire
acreage of the valley and tributary
lands will make the crop much
larger than usual.
The disappointment of the fruit
growers in failing to get bumper
crops of peaches this year has lead
them to put in hundreds of acres to
melons and the scarcity of fruit all
over the United States, ON account
Of the hebackward spring, should make
prices good for early and even mid
season products. Seventy five acres
Of water melons and Is acres of
cantaloupes are already planted on
the Highlands aud the vines are
making good start.
Mr. de Regt urges that the fruit
growers exercise every care in pick
ing the berries at the proper time
and packing according to the estab-
lished regulations. The Grating OF
over-ripe fruit must be scrupulously
avoided if the berries are to be ac-
cepted for marketing at top prices.
The Association has representatives
all ever the United States who will
give the city markets careful super
vision and who will also keep tab on
the markets in the smaller towns so
that the demand for any of the val
ley's products may be instantly tele-
graphed to the local offices and the
need filled. This system means
success to the stock holders of the
association, and money in the
pockets of the fruit growers.
After six weeks residence in Ken
newick, Mr.. de Regt is very much
pleased with the city's future pros
poets and says that the valley should
IN time become one of the finest
frult districts in the west.

CALHOUN'S BARN
DESTROYED BY FIRE
Blaze Wednesday Morning Cleans up
Former City Clerks
Back Yard

Wednesday morning the city's
fire alarm tinkled to announce IL
blaze out in Morain's addition. A
blaze started in the rear of Calhoun's s
barn and spread to the root cellar
and small out houses. The fire de-
partment responded dragging the
hose carts about half way to the
ditch. One of the Richland Land
company's cars hooked onto the
chemical and whirled it to the fire.
The hose men had rather a sloppy
time of it as the line on the tank
had rotted and failed to stand the
pressure. Two or three got drenched
One of the first to get out there
was one of the smaller Copeland
lads who had sense enough to get
the two cows out before they were
roasted as were several chickens.
The damage was comparatively
small, the building being old. The
fire did some much-needed cleaning
up.
