Judge DeVore Is not only An excel
lent lawyer ard dispenser of justice,
but a kindhe;rted, unselish gentle
man. While he had to Sweat" it out
in his official judicial robe while
court was in session, he gave the ju-
rors and newspaper reporters the
privilege of laying aside their coats
and make themselves as comfortable
as they could when the heat IN the
court house WIS almost unendurable.
It is needless to say that the recip-
dents of Judge DeVore's consideration
appreciated it and availed themselves
of it with alaCrity.

The political fall Of a man like
Bailey is sad. Had his political in
tegrtty equaled his ability as a man,
Bailey might have figured as one of
the South's grelt men. But the temp
ter came, and he fell never to rise
again. Whenever politician begins
to fool with oil, as Bailey did, his
road to further honors becomes slip
perry at once.

1t is cheerinz, to know that at last
there is a re eiative decline in the
number of suicides in this country.
To be sure the decline is but slight,
hut it is infinitely better than the
ominous increa ses of former years,
and it leads 20 the hope that the
future may bring even better re-
suits. If peop'e would only learn to

IMPORTANT POINT
Court SustainS Demurrer to
Charge Of Delaying Decisions,

Although he was unsuccessful in his
move to quaSh proceedings in the mat
ter Of the Impeachment by the house,
- we'll as in the demurrer to
certain complaints made against him
with reference to the frequenting of
drug stores ''notoriously known to be
places where liquor was Illegally
sold" Judge John F. Cowan's counsel
won a victory in the proceedings be-
fore the court of Impeachment when
his demurrer to the charge that he
continually delayed decisions in &C
tons brought before him in court was
sustained
This ruling was made by President
Burdick and supported by the court
BY a vote in which only two members
voted against sustaining the demur-
rer, after lengthy arguments had been
made bearing on the question.
The demurrer to the third charg.
and its specifications, in which it was
claimed that the accused habitually
trequented drug stores that were
known to be places where liquor was
known to be sold unlawfully, was the
first considered, ana was voted down,
