Mr.. Chairman, Honorable Judges,
Most Worthy Opponents, Ladies
and Gentlemen:
Ny colleagues have exposed the
recall the inexpediency, the weak
ness, and the dangers of such a
system.
As the third and last speaker Of
the negative, 1 shall refute the as
sertIons made by the gentlemen on
the affirmative and prove to you,
first, that the recall of state and
federal judges would bring them in
to the bounds of politics, therefore,
politics would enter the Temple of
Justice.
Second. that it would do injus.
tice to the minority.
Third, that all great economical
questions would become of minor
Importance.
Fourth, that it would destroy the
independence of judges; without
charges against them preferred,
without trial or evidence, and with
out cause, they would be subjected
to the momentary will of the ma
! jority, and not of all the people.
A government is for the benefit
of all the people and we believe that
this benefit is best realized by popu
lar government, because in the long
run, all classes of people are more
apt to secure better provisions for
themselves through their own
voices, than through the altrulstic
interests of others. The wisdom of
ages has taught that no government
can exist except in accordance with
laws. Therefore as the government
is for all the people and not solely
for the majority of them, the ma
iority in exercising the power OF
the minority as well as the MAORI
ty. But all have realized that a
majority of the people when aroused
and unrestrained by law, can do in
iutice to the minority and the indl
vidual. Hence arises the necessity
of a written constitution, which
forms the only reliable bulwark be
tween an absolute monarchy and al
irresponsible anarchy. No form OF
stable government can exist without
such written constitution subject
to legal Interpretation by the judi
cial branch of government.
Senator Borah of Idaho, one oi
the leading insurgent republicans
dwelt upon the duties of judge tc
"consider nothing but the terms Of
law as written" Honorable Judges,

who seeks to locate the popular side
of a iustieable controversy is a pal

Benevolent Sosciety of Moorhead was
completed at an adjourned meeting
held at the home of Mrs. w. ]. Awty,
3l5 Fifth street south, yesterday aft
| ernoon, with about score of devout-
ly interested ladies present.
Last week. at the initial meeting,
Mrs. Awty was elected president and a

Secretary-Mrs. Edgar e. Sharp.
Treasurer-Mrs. A. H. Costain.

prise a member from each ward OF
the city, to act in conjunction with the
officers named. This afternoon Mrs.
Awty stated that she would name the
committee next week as she was go
ing out of town for few days. Mrs.
Awty also stated in order to correct
a wrong impression that the Moorhead
society was not branch Of anything
nor would 1t be affiliated with the As
sociated Charities, at least not for the
present, but the work done and at
tempted in Moorhead would be in per-
feet harmony, ..
A committee will confer with the
county commissioners of Clay county

relief and to gather such data as may
be needed by the society as an aid to
carry on it's work systematically and

BOOTH and RICHTER.
WON The HONORS.

The valedictorian and saIutatorian of
the senior class at the high school
have been announced and are respec-
lively George Booth and Waldemar
Richter. The honors are won by the
first and second highest averages for
the three and one-half years work.
The highest averages in the senior
class are Booth. 81; Richter, s1.6;
Leimbacher, 91.5; Shea, 90.o7; Pitcher.
1913; Sioquist SO; Farset, 8S.6; Nc
Cauley, $40; Barber, s6.79; Hoag,
S6.42.
The highest grading in the class.
that received by George Booth. was
81. 1t is one-half of per cent from
the high school record which is 97.5.
This showing is a very good one con-
| sidering the fact that Booth is COM
pleting the regular four-year course in
three years. He has the distinction of
being the first valedictorian to accom-
plish this.
Waldeman Richter, who was second
with an average OF S1.6, is hard

times been unable to attend school
during the review period which pre-

In these instances, at least, athletics
do not appear to have been very
great hindrance to scholarship, for
both Booth and Richter are well known
in high school athletics. Richter was
a star tackle on the football team,
playing one year on the scrub and two
years on the frst aggregation. He is
also q hockey player. Booth is one

DINNER FOR GARFIELD

An informal dinner will be given at

field, former secretary OF the interior,
by Sen. Frank S. Talcott, who was a
college class mate of the son of the
martyred president at Williams coll

Becretary's brother is now president.
Only a very few of the immediate
friends Of Senator Talcott have been
asked to attend the dinner and the
gathering in no way will have any pol
itical significance.
Senator Talcott frequently visits
Secretary Garfield on his way back to

this is one Of the first opportunities he
has had to reciprocate in a personal
way the many attentions his former
clsssmate has shown him on previous
