clamorous stampede
CLARK STAMPEDE is HALTED.
The Clark stampede got started

to Clark. A fifteen minute demonstra-

York's 80 votes belonged to the
Speaker.
But two minutes later the Wilson
demonstration was launched when an

New York switch to Clark, set the
crowded hall wild and the Wilson ova-
ton that followed lasted thirty min

The lighting system on the capital

evening, and the contractor, A. Wink
Ter, secured the band as an attraction.
The system is composed of fifty-6ye
light standards up to the present for
the immediate grounds about the
building, and when all were lighted
and the grounds thronged with peo-
pie, in autos. in carriages and on foot
the view was quite different one
from5the old grounds with nothing
but few street lights surrounding

out there will be nearly 800 of these
five-light standards to show up the

LORD MERSEY's VERDICT

Springfield, Mass, J, hs.:ca
Mersey's conclusions regarding the
THAMES loss are ponderously digni-
fed and of course entirely without
passion admirable qualities doubt
less. Blu. in placing the responsible
ity, he follows a line that leads no.
where. The ship was lost because
she was run at excessive speed over a
course known to the captain to be
dangerous, but lin the circum,
stances, = says Lord Mersey, 4 am
unable to blame Capt. Smith. Then
it follows that no one in particular
can be blamed hich is both an alb.
surdity and : mockery. The same
reasoning would acquit bank
swrecker Ike Morse, because he had
only done what other bankers had
been constantly doing. All sea cap
tains look to the same risks, SO Capt.
Smith must be held blameless. When
custom violates law, the man who
follows custom does so at his peril.

PLEASE PASS THE ALFALFA

The writer has lately heard consid-
cradle about alfalfa products for food
and yesterday demonstration OF
several kinds were made at the sup
per table. The alfalfa coffee was
really good, the gems made from
wheat and alfalfa -four, had delici-
GUS taste, and the alfalfa syrup was
nearly as good as maple syrup. There
are many food products, iavors and
candies that are revelation, espec-
tally when one considers that in addi.
ton to the food value they are highly
medicinal. With our alfalfa palace
we should certainly have an alfalfa

THE LIVELY GAME

Impeachment proceedings against
judges are growing popular, doubtless
because of the success Of those brought
against Judge Hanford. The case of
Archibald isnow before the senate, and
congress has been, or will be, asked to
bring proceedings against Judge Emery
Speer of Georgia, and Judge Daniel T..
Wright of the District of Columbia.
In Jefferson's day. as Woodrow Will
son recalls in his history of the Ameri-
can People, concerted effort was made
by the democratic leaders to remove,
through the process of impeachment,
certain judges whose course on the bench
had sbstructed the actions of the admin
istration. 1t was urged then that the
theory of Impeachment was that it was
not criminal prosecution, but only a
process of removal. If an accused judge
was proven to be s'an instrument Of
opposition to the course of the govern.
ment' that was all that was necessary.
a declsloR from q Judge declaring ar
act of congress unconstitutional wss
enough, according to these authorities
Impeachment must be considered "a
means of keeping the courts in reason
able harmony with the will of the
nation.
Congress, however, declined to sane
ton such a theory, and the actions O
the senate in cases brought before i
showed that they were willing t,
remove judges from Office for miscon
duct and corruption, but not because O.
opinions honestly held and courageous
y vo iced. That would seem to be ;
good rule to follow today.

SWALLOWING AN INSULT

Last saturday number Of soldlers
belonging to the rebel army that is
trying to overturn the government Of
Mexico stood on the Mexican side. of
the boundary line and fred several
vollies across the line into the terri
tory of the United States, aiming
their guns at soldiers of the United
States there stationed.
Five American houses in the town
of ElPaso, Texas, were struck by
Mexican bullets. The United States
soldiers thus attacked returned the
fire. The attack on the American
flag is presumed to have been made
to cover smuggling Of ammunition
across the boundary.
To the on-looker it appears that
the government at Washington is
strangely inactive in the presence Of
this open insult to its authority, hav-
ing taken no steps to meet and pun
ish what amounted to a technical in
vasion of its territory.
Citizens of the United States have
been robbed and killed on Mexican
soil and thousands have fed from
that country to save their lives,
abandoning their property. Through.
out all these exhibitions of outlawry,
our government remained passive.
Now, when it's own uniform is IS
saulted with implements of warfare,
itcontinues to remain passive Wha,
sort of . government is this at Wash
ington that swallows an affront thai

ragged boundary line. Huron Huron
