cicty, with one exception, had
some complaint to make about
the dry season-the blackberries
drying up, the tomatoes rotting
from sunburn, the sweet corn
failing to fill out or the scarcity
of potatoes. In fact, a famine
might have seemed inevitable
to one wko listened to the gloomy
talk. Finally, the president of
the society turned to a small wo-
man who had been quilting away
cheerfully but silently through
the afternoon, the one exception
to the faultifinders, Hasn't
the drought hurt your fruit and
garden at all, Mrs. Bennett?'
she asked.
''Oh, yes, mine is just about
like all the rest" was the calm
reply.
And don't you ever worry
over anything?" the president
asked, almost impatiently.
Mrs. Bennett stopped quilting,
laid her thimble down, and look
ing round the group of women at
the quilt, answered.. IN tell
you what cured me of worrying.
/ used to fret over everything
and one spring, when it was re-
ported that a late frost had kill
ed all the fruit, I sat down to
have a good cry, for our peach
trees had bloomed beautifully,
and l had been SO proud of the
abundant crop l was sure We
were to have.
Now it happened that my
Aunt Martha came in just then.
and asked me what the trouble
was. told her.
Child, what's the use 81
fretting over it? You'll not
starve. I've lived eighty years,
and the worlds crop of provis-
ions has never failed yet. If we
don't have peaches, we'll have
pumpkins
Il have lived half as many
years now as Aunt Martha had
lived then, and I've found her
philosophy sound. In spite of
all the late frosts and droughts,
l don't believe any one of us has
ever suffered for FOOD
The little woman glanced with
a smile round the cirle of plump.
well-fed women, and tken taking
up her thimble, went to quilting
again. They all laughed rather
sheepishly, and the president
said, thoughtfully:
I'D never thought of it that
way, but it's true. Peaches or
pumpkins! I'll try to remember
that"

Already some of the colored Republican

Dill goes up to the President Just as it left
the House, with the appropriation for the
pay of the five judges Of the Commerce Court
cut off,
Ever since its establishment the Commerce
Court has been nothing but court for the
benefit OF the rallroads-a higher court to
which the railroads could 90 and undo every
thing that the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion had done toward lowering and regulat-
ing rates.
Only few days ago the Supreme Court
gave the Commerce Court a severe rebuke,
declaring that no new and mysterious powers
was given when it was created, and it had
exceeded its authority"
One of It's members, Judge Archibald, is
now facing impeachment, and if he gets his
just deserts he will soon be disgraced ex-
judge.
This Court was a useless expense put upon
the people for the benefit of the railroads, and
it has benefited them-it provides easy jobs
for life for five judges, when every bit Of the
work that they do could be done by the differ
ent United States District Judges
Congress did right in refusing to make an
appropriation to continue this court Just as
it was right to cut off the appropriation to
continue Mr.. Taft's Tariff Board.
We are loaded down with too many off
Gals drawing fat salaries that they do not
earn.
Another Federal Judge is now facing
Impeachment proceedings, and it is to be
hoped that Congress will not hesitate to take
his official scalp along with Judge Archbalds
Of the Commerce Court.
Judge Hanford, of the State of Washing
ton, refused to grant naturalization papers to
an applicant on the grounds that he was a
Socialist, and therefore in favor of a revolu-
tlonary form of government-this Judge has
taken it upon himself to say that person
may not become citizen Of the United States
for political reasons something that the Con-
stitHtion forbids
But this is not the most serious charge
against Judge Hanford-this is the charge
that the Socialist member of Congress, Mr..
Berger, first made against him, but other
charges far more serious have been brought
FORTH such as "high crimes and misdemea-
nors," and there is an abundance of evidence
to support every charge
If Congress fails in it's duty to impeach
these two judges, it will only strengthen the
forces of those who believe in the recall for
judges, and it will show more clearly than
anything else that the old method Of impeach-
ment is an obsolete and inefficient method Of
Kidding the Courts of presiding officers who
are not morally, or otherwise fit for the posi-
tions that they hold.
In the typical Roosevelt fashion, Mr.
Roosevelt has gone to Chicago to take per-
sonal charge of his fight for the Republican
nomination one Of the New York Chicago
flyers he made the dash across the country to
be met at the convention city by $4,000 fren-
zied Roosevelt partisans.
