ISSUES OF CAMPAIGN

Los Angeles Tribune: Judge Rob
ert w. Archibald of the commerce
court. whose distinction it will be to
figure in the fourth judiciary impeach-
ment in our history, asks the country
to suspend Judgment. The house COM
mittee that has been hearing teSti-
mony in his case has reported unani-
mously without party division that the
prima facie case against Archibald is
bad.
That it's conclusions are those of the
public there is no doubt So heavy
was the weight of evidence that it
says, in summing up the findings: "The
conduct of this Judge has been highly
reprehensible and in marked contrast
to the high sense of judicial ethics
and propriety," etc.
1t appears from the evidence that
the committee is quite right in con-
cluding that the judges sense of moral
responsibility has become deadened.
He was not able to controvert the
damning proofs of his having solicited
the favor of litigants, actually in his
hands as a judicial officer, in order
that he might profit financially He
permitted lawyers practicing before
him to send him to Europe on a va
cation. And these are only typical
of many extreme offenses by him
Popular confidence in the judiciary
has been sadly shaken by the Archibald
expose and the testimony of personal
and official delinquencies against Han
ford in Seattle. Politicians who go on
the stump this fall to argue that as
soon as men don the ermine they must
be exempt from popular scrutiny are
going to have hard time The best

MOVING PICTURES OF STOMACH

Philadelphia Press: Regular NOV
ing pictures of the stomach of human
beings and animals, in the process of
digestion, have recently been exhibited
in Germany, and it is believed that it
will not be very long before such pic
lures will be exhibited to all medical
students as a part of their course OF
training.
Experiments were first made on
cats. By adding little subnitrate OF
bismuth, a harmless powder, to the
foods of the feline, the contents OF
the stomach became visible to the
X-ray apparatus. By taking X-ray
Photographs in rapid succession, it be-
came possible to secure moving pic
ture showing the exact motions the
stomach goes through when digesting
a meal.
The old idea that the stomach is
divided practically into two parts, one
being used as sort of reservoir and
the other doing the digesting, is fully
disproved by the pictures. The whole
stomach works.
Soon after the food enters the stonl-
ach begins to churn and knead back
and forth. This churnlng movement
takes the form of regular waves,
which succeed one another at intervals
of 20 seconds. AS the food becomes
thoroughly digested it advances to the
pylorus or gate keeper, which allows
it to pass on. So long as there are
digested masses in the stomach the
kneading action continues and the
pylorus remains obdurate.
It is plainly shown BY the moving
pictures that worry, anger or other
excitement causes the digestive ap-
raratus to stop. Observation on cats
and other animals prove that when
they are teased, or even when they
have been asleep and have had bad
dreams there is cessation of stomach
movements.
1t is believed that careful study
of this subject will throw much new
light on the digestive processes and
aid in the treatment of disease.
