Another Impeachment.

Congress seems to be getting a
righteous streak on just now. Be
sides the Committee appointed to
investigate" Judge Hanford s course
in revoking naturalization papers
of an alien who had dishonered the
flag, Chairman Clayton, of the House
Committee or Judiciary, has sub
lnitted articles of impeachment
against Federal Judge r. W. Archi-
bald of the Court of Commerce. 1t
is the unanimous report of the COM
mittee, and it is the ninth inpeach-
ment of a judicial or civil officer of
the United States. 1t seems from
the findings of the committee, that
Judge Archibald has been exceed
ingly reprehonsible in breach of the
high sense of moral ethics that char
acterizes the Federal Judges. 1t is
shown that he has been Indirectly in
terested in many cases that have
come before him for adjudication,
and that he has shown remarkable
solicitude for the interests of parties
having, or likely to have. cases be-
fore him. From this knowledge, and
consequent distrust. he has degrad.
ed his high Office and destroyed pop
ular confidence in his judicial in
tegrity. The judges of all others,
they affirm, should be free from
suspicion of any such influences. 1t
is also charged that free trip to
Europe was given him by Henry w.
Canon, the railroad magnate and
financial power of New York.
Clayto will present a resolution
providing for management of the
trial before the Senate. A commit.
tee consisting of Representatives
Clayton, Floyd Davis and Webb,
Democrats, and Norris, Sterling and
Rowland, Republicans, to manage
the prosecution of the Archibald
trial before the Senate has been
named.
1t seems probable that this trial
will result in conviction, which has
rarely been the result before that
august body.

BoARDNAN ADAMS, supervising ar
chitect of the U. S. Treasury, has
arrived to superintend construction
of the Federal building in this city,
which is to be erected by the King
Lumber Company, of Charlottesville.
Virginia. F. A. Hesner, superin-
tendent for the contractors, is also
in the city, and if we are to Judge by
the number of bosses" the work
will progress rapidly. If there were
not SO many. it is probable that the
building would not have been shorn
of so many architectural beauties to
have been sacrificed that were includ-
ed in the original estimate.

WHY Not the Onion?

The fad OF many States is to set apart
certain days in special honor OF
some product of the soil. In Illinois
we have broom corn day, in Middle
Western Missouri sorghum, in Mich
igan peach day, New York apple day
and raisin, fig and prune days in
California. Melon day is one of the
principal epochs in Georgia. Spinach
day in Indiana, potato day is general
" observed in the Aroostook region,
grass days in Kentucky. wheat day
in the Dakotas, flower day in Oregon.
and the lately instituted "geoduck"
day in Olympia, and now it is asked
why the onion should not be installed
in the Southwest. 1t certainly ranks
high enough to impel attention if not
respect. 1t may be true that the
onion is most intimately connected
with fried beefs teak, or the glimpse
of corner in back lot, or possibly
with the green display at the market
stand, but those casual associations
only indicate that people have much
more to learn of this succulent vege-
table. Very few of them have ever
seen the great onion farms of Ari-
IONA and Texas. stretching away far
as the eye can reach.
Some people seem to think that
the onion is too obtrusive and in
sistant upon enforcing recognition, to
entitle it to be coddliug by special
day observance, or run the risk of
having to sleep on the left side to
keep the rich aroma from Fostering
ones roommate. They may live separ-
ate, but the severance will not be per-
manent after the anniversary is past
and even with those who insist upon
tolerating the individuality of the
accentuated vegetable, that there
are times when almost any social tie
will be forgotten to yield it full sway.

Suffrage Will Come To Women.

Ex-Gov. Pardee. of California, late
" predicted that woman suffrage will
soon become universal in the United
States. He was speaking at lunch
con at the Hamilton club in honor of
Mrs. Florence Collins Porter and
Mrs. Isabella w. Blaney, women del
egates from California to the recent
Republican Convention. 1t may be
an easy thing to predict progress un-
der such circumstances, but the fact
is becoming general for expression of
a confidence of the final outcome of
political contention that will cause
wonder it ever existed in a nation
that has set the example for self-gov-
eminent. Mr.. Pardee said in SUBJ
stance: We can say in behalf of Cal
ifornia that since we have had equal
suffrage there has been absolutely no
cause in the State to regret the
steps that have been taken. We have
seen that women without exception
have stood for the betterment of
conditions in the State and in the
nation. Woman suffrage is in the
ring and whether we like it or not
we have to accept it. In q short
time woman suffrage will win every
State in this country"

Possibilities of the Future.

Inc almost ually RECORD Ol loss VI
human life from aerial experimental
ton all over the civilized world, gives
hope OF an ultimate result which
will at least be some compensa-
tiOn for loss of the intrepid pio-
neers that make such a result pos
sible. Nobody with common sense
nowadays decries the announce
ment of any project, however con-
trary to opinion it may seem, for
results have shown that the book OF
Nature has been, and we have rea-
son to believe still is. in many in
stances, sealed volume even to the
most advanced civilization.
The electric telegraph in 1874 was a
marvel, and at first only excited de-
rision of Congress, through the solic-
itations of its inventor, Samuel B.
Morse's daughter. but it gave few
thousand dollars for the "play-thing'
as they called it, mainly to demon
strate its absurity. and what was
their CONSERVATION on receipt of the
first message from Baltimore. &C.
corded through courtesy to Miss
Morse: What Hath God Wrought"
which demonstrated its entire FEAST
bility. To say nothing of the many
other wonderful inventions that have
been literally crammed down the
threats of doubtful, came the phono-
graph which literally bottled up
speech to repeat it after ages, if
necessary; the telephone which car
ried the human voice over hundreds
of miles by wire and still later the
wireless which enables correspond
ents to transmit the voice over
hundreds of miles of space without
any visible medium.
Can We with all these achieve.
ments say with any degree Of GER
tainty that man can never fly with
the control and safety of the bird?
Aeronauts have hitherto contended
against air conditions that were not
understood. Hence we hear of holes
in the air. or unexplainable side cur
rents that are not grasped and
no means been grasped to protect
against. The Oregonian, in COM
menting on the subject, predicts that
while the evolution of aeronautics
from the present plane will continue
proportionately slow, but the man
will have his way in time. While
it is the most prodigious and peril
Gus task to which man has set him
self. his determination and growing
successes forecast but one ultimate
end. Flying, when that science is
perfected, may give to civilization its
most powerful stimulus. The value
Of flying is not as diversion. Rath-
or it is intended to bring about un-
changeable readjustmentso Of our whole
social fabric. The compactness Of
the world will be intensified. The
remote corners will come into ready
contact with the centers. Trans
portation and therefore industry and
commerce will be revolutionized.
Perhaps realization OF the dream is
far ahead. Yet mans ingenuity is q
strangely expansive quality. The
record of achievement within the
past century gives basis for great ex-
pectati0ns from the not too distant
future. It may be that even pres
emit generations will live to see man 8
conquest Of the air consummated.
In the meantime the experimental
stages will push ahead, marked by q
steadily growing array of head
stones.
