ARCHIBALD TRIAL
+. GOES over UNTIL
AFTER ELECTION
Accused Judge Will Take
No Part In Business
of Court.

Judge Robert w. Archibald Of the
Commerce Court will be tried by the
Senate on the impeachment charges
preferred by the House at the begin
ming of the next regular session of
Congress. After a long fight yester-
day afternoon the Senate voted, A to 19,
to postpone the trial until December g.
the second day Of the regular short
session.
Ostensibly the Senate voted for post
ponement because A. s. Worthington,
counsel for Archibald, protested he-could
not get ready for immediate trial and
needed at least until October 10. But
the reasons are to be found in the fact
leave Washington; that some of them

friends of Judge Archibald thai he will
get q square deal more readily after
election than before 1t.
The House managers appeared at 2
o'clock and through Judge Clayton
urged that trial be had without delay.
beginning August Z. Mr.. Worthington
argued for postponement. The Senate
went into executive session to consider
what to do, and after wrestling with
the problem two hours voted as already
indicated.
The Senate was assured by Mr..
Worthington that the accused judge
would take no part in the business OF
the Commerce Court until the trial was
disposed of. He has not taken any part
since the impeachment proceedings
were begun.

STRIKING MINERS
AND MILITIA UPON
VERGE Of TROUBLE
Men Are Advised Today to
Stand for Their Rights.
Disarming to Begin.

PITTSBURGH. Pa, Aug. 4.-Striking
miners in the Paint Creek fields of
West Virginia are holding mass meet
ings today, the principal one being
at Montgomery, where 1t is expected
at least 5000 men will be in attend
ance before the day is over. as men
from the smaller towns after assem-
bling, have decided to- march to
Montgomery to participate in the
meeting there.
Mother" Jones will address the
Montgomery meeting late this after
noon and will urge the men to stand
for their rights. Gov. w. e. Glass
cock has ordered the entire National
Guard of the State into the field and
the troops are now on their way to
Mucklow, where Adjutant General El-
lott has established his headquarters.
As soon as the additional troops ar
rive, martial law will be proclaimed
and the work of disarming both min
ers and mine guards will begin.
When this is started, trouble is eX-
pected and possible shooting between
the troops and the miners. Governor
Glasscock held conferences last night
with representatives of the miners
and operators. but refused to say
what had been the subject of the con-
For the past twenty-four hours
troops have patrolled the mountain
paths, preventing "sniping" on the

JUST COMMON FOLKS.

Have you been reading the list of delegates who
will attend the progressive convention at Chicago
next week? Notice many of the old familiar names?
Penrose, Barnes, Murray Crane, Murray Butler,
Apostle Smoot, Sunny Jim Sherman, Uncle Joe Can
non, c. Warren Fairbanks, Big Steve, Dave Mulvane,
Vic Rosewater-even Gen. Powell Clayton-are all
missing. In their places are new names; names yet
unknown beyond their own communities, men select
ed from the ranks-from the workshop and the
harvest field, from the railroad yards, and the store
counter-just common folks
Much the same kind of folks as fought the Amer
lean Revolution-they were New England farmers;
much the same kind of workingmen who left their
daily toll when Lincoln called for volunteers; just
common folks, who compose about e5 per cent of
our population.
It's pretty good sign that something is going to
be done when the common folks lay off day or
two and get down to the serious business of giving
orders how this Government of theirs is going to be
run

QUESTION OF CREDENTIALS.

Reactionary papers are sneering at the delegates
selected to attend the progressive convention at Chi
cago next week, claiming they have no credentials
and are self-appointed. F..
No doubt it is incomprehensble to the average
reactionary how delegate to anything could have
any rights unless he were underwrtten and vouched
for by some boss but that is just the fundamental
difference between the progressive party and the old
parties. The progressive party believes all power
comes from the people; the old parties believe it
must come from the bosses.
If the bosses and sub-bosses at Chicago in June
had paid more respect to delegates who held their
commission from the people and less attention to
those who held credentials signed by some machine
politician, there would have been no need for a
third party.

WHAT IS A JUDGE TO DO?

Judge Archibald admits he did the things charged
against him, but that it entered his mind that
he was committing any wrong in accepting presents,
fees, profits, and favors from ltgants or possible
litigants.
Judge Hanford has resigned, rather than permit
the Congressional inquiry into his judicial record to
proceed but he issues statement tnat he has
nothing to regret in his using his judicial powers to
wreck great concerns and fill the pockets of his
friends with easy money.
Now comes Judge Speer, of Georgia, another
Federal judge, busting into tears because he is
cused of misconduct. The judge is very much hurt,
and leaves his native city under guard Of United
States deputy marshals while the populace burn him
in efigy. All the judge did was to take $l50,O00
estate keep in court for fourteen years. appoint
members of his family receivers and trustees, his
legal friends attorneys, and to it that the mat
ter was never adjudicated as to dismiss the re-
ceivership and stop attorney fees.
What in the name of goodness is judge to do !?
What is there in giving up good private prac-
tice and being appointed judge anyway in these
days of reckless assault upon our judiciary?

WHAT THE ISSUE IS.

How could our neighbor have acquired so much
misinformation? How can it be so illogical? How
can a man Openly pledged" to do a certain thing

There has been masqueradng in Kansas-nor
any attempt at it. There is not the least pretense
upon the part of the Roosevelt candidates for electors
that they would vote for anybody else than Roose-

Tuesday. That is exactly what started this fight

that the people knew they meant what they said, and

The issue before Justice Ptney was whether the
people of a State have the right to instruct thel

DAY
IS NOW FIXED FOR
SATURDAY, AUG. Il
Rapid Progress Made on
Tariff Bills, and Others
Pushed Aside.

With the trial Of Judge Archibald post
poned until next December and rapid
progress being made on tariff bills, Sem
ators and members of the House are
hopeful of early adjournmnt.
That the end of the session will be
Saturday, August II, Is considered prob
able. No agreement to that effect has
been reached, and there are still many
stumbling-blocks. but Snator Penrose
and other leaders think the session can
be wound up at that time. Strong
efforts will be made to do SO.
1t looks as IL there would be little
more time spent on tariff The steel
bill has passed with the reciprocity re-
peal amendment stricken out, and the
House has agreed to the conference
report on the wool bill. The Senate Is
expected to do SO early this week.
Then, 1t is expected the excise and
sugar bills will follow without much
delay. The high tariff men are relying
on the President to veto all the tariff
bills. He would probably sign a sugar
bill IL 1t went to him as it passed the
Senate, but 1t does not appear likely
1t will reach him in that form.
The Senate will meet at 10 O'Clock
Monday morning for the purpose Of
huiTtlHB UuslnesB 10 close. One or
the chief sources of delay Is the trouble
in conference over the legislation which
the House has put on the important ap-
preparation bills. The postoffice bill In
the Senate, containing the parcels post
measure, is causing delay. Moreover
there Is the Panama canal bill, which
has caused long debate and will cause
more.
Delay for Canal Bill.
An organized effort is on in the Senate
to show the Panama canal bill over un-
| til next session. One suggestion Is to
make provision for the organisation of
! an operative force to open the canal
and for the government of the Canal
Zone and let the tolls question go over.
Senator Bristow will oppose this. He

House members are c1amoring for the

uing appropriation acts until August
