New Commissioner Elect

There is one thing certain from
the election, and that is that this
part of the county got q commits
sioner. The first one this part
has had in a number of years.
Either way that it might have
gone we were SURF Of getting q
commissioner. The new Com
missioner, R. A. Day, was through
here Saturday with a load of coal
from the mines which he was tax
ing to his ranch up the river. he
didn't look any different that we
could see, but he might have set
up a little straighter on the wagon
than usual.
If Mr.. Day is half so success
full with county affairs as he is IN
his ranch, this valley will have No
kick coming and you can rest as
sured that he will do as good or
better. 1t is seldom that you get
a man of Nj. Days standing to
take up the duties of this kind
and the county should congratu-
late ITSELF on his election.

Why Have any Law

While Colonel Roosevelt is adj
vocating the recall of Judicial de.
c;sions and Texas statesmen are
irving to reorganize the judiciary
of the state, John M. Wade in
the Kansas City Journal submits
the following:
If a judge is to be recalled be-
cause his decision is unpopular,
or a decision is to be recalled by a
popular vote Of the people and by
people who have never studied
the case, and who know but little
about it. who never saw the plead
ipgs or heard a word of testimony
or saw a single witness or even
read the discussion of the higher
courts, or know the reasons given
BY the court for the decisions
which it has made, then why not
dispense with our entire Judicial
system? Why waste the time and
expense of selecting and empanel-
ling jurorsp Why pay large sell
aries to judges on account of
their fitness to pass upon legal
questionsp Why not submit all
controversies to a vote of the peo-
|ple without, Intervention of a
court or jury, and let the people
decide by a vote what is right and
what is wrong?
Yea, more; if the people can re-
call a decision when it is accord.
ing to law, why have the law at
all? If the people do not intend
to be guided by the law, of what
use is the law, and if the people
at large are more capable of in
terpreting the law than the law
yers, who are trained in the law,
then our whole judiciary system is
failure and should be abolished,
and the people, the voters by bal
lot should settle u controversies.
Our system of Jurisprudence
should not be made valueless SIM
ply because occasionly there is a
decision that does not meet with
approval, or. because occa-
sionally there is a judge who does
not measure up to the full expec-
tation of the people.

A PENALTY OF AGE

The tendency Of advancing years to
restrict activity and exercise is re-
sponsible for the constipated condition
Of most elderly people. The wear Of
years impairs the action Of the bow
els and the digestive organs are more
sensitive to the demands upon them
and rebel more quickly. Cathartics
and purgatives are violent and dras-
tic in their .ction and should not be
used to correct constipation. A mild,
yet positively effective remedy, and
one that is recommended by physi-
clans as well as by thousands who
have used it. is the compound of SIM
ole Laxative herbs with pepsin pre-
scribed by DR.. W. b. Caldwell over
thirty years ago and now sold by drug
