SCHEMING POLITICIANS
SEVERELY CRITICIZED

Quoting from Henry M. Earle,
of New York, in regard to the
Judiciary in politics, the Alamosa
Journal of last week says:
Everybody knows judges con-
tribute to campaign funds and that
politicians are constantly appoint
ed to remunerative positions by
the bench, in which way judges
distribute hundreds of thousands
of dollars in patronage annually"
Coming down to judicial affairs
at home, the Journal continues:
Right in our own state how
true this is, and only recently a
bar association at the instigation
and by the promotion of those
seeking or already rendered such
patronage, pulled off the political
coupe of having judge about to
preside endorsed for denomination.
Thus attorneys, to the number of
about twenty, tried to form the
convictions of thousands of voters
But results will show that the
mind of the voters in this grand
old republic is being made up on
a different program of late, and as
fast and as often as these gangsters
and selfish politicians present their
claims they are turned down and
will be led away from the public
crib, to fatten by their own efforts
or perish.
at would seem to us that lawyers
are unmindful of the fact that
most of the progressive states have
primary laws, at any rate Colorado
has such law, which was passed
for the sole purpose of disqualify-
ing any gang from selecting oandi-
dates for Office, high or low, and

THE COMMERCE COURT

By vote of 36 to %, on the
l1th, the Senate approved the leg
islation abolishing the Commerce
Court. On the following day the
question of the disposition of the
five judgeships was taken up and
the Senate voted to legislate out
of Office and off the pay roll the
five members of the court. AS a
final precaution to insure the re-
call of these judges, the Senate
provided that the jurists should
not be allowed to act as federal,
District or Circuit judges. If the
bill becomes law, as it will on
July l unless vetoed by President
Taft, the Commerce Court judges
will be retired to private life. The
provision putting the court out of
existence is section of the legis-
lative, executive and judicial ap-
preparation bill. A veto of this
measure would cut off the salaries
of all officers and employees and
all fiscal supplies for the three
branches of the government be-
ginning July l.
This act removes five good ju-
dicial plums from the federal tree.

TIMES HAVE CHANGED

In grandfather's day the
American family stayed
pretty much in one place.
1t grew up on the old farm.
or lived in the comfortable
farm house. The children
went not more than mile
to school. and going away
to college was exceptional.
Travel had not become
general.
But the world has been ex-
tended. Today the typical
American family is scattered
much of the time. Father
hurries back and forth be-
tween cities on business.
Mother has her own interests,
and goes to meetings, con-
ventions, on visits and jaunts.
These modern conditions
are all good. They mean a
broade, life and better op-
portunities. But they also
bring a certain element of
anxiety and loneliness, due
to separation. Trains are
delayed, spidemics break out
in schools, rumors and alarms
come flying from many di-
rections. very often ground
less, yet causing worry and
fear.
The first resource in such
emergencies should be the
long distance telephone.
The family with the best
realization Of the telephone
possibilities enjoys the great
est peace Of mind.

the people on the 10th day of Sep

ion that the lawyers will not be
consulted to any marked degree.
This reminds us what a boon for
clean politics in the judiciary, as
we'll as other elective offices, these
primary laws are going to be. 1t
will be hardly possible for dele
gates of one party to sell them
selves to the other party as has
been done in the past.
"Yes the Judiciary is in politics,
but the scheme of the lawyers to
take it out of politics, by their
proposed methods, will hardly be
acceptable to the masses of the
people at present.
"And ther efore why not let the
people of this district decide at
the primaries, the two nominees of
the republican party for the judi
cial positions in the election in
this district this fall, in place of
the bar association and the politi.
cians?"

see tiny speeks, the houses of an

was sheer pFecipice and jagged
rocks. The sight took away her
consciousness and thus saved the
girls reason.
Twilight came, still the young
man, tired to exhaustion, clutched
the skirts of his sister. Minutes
seemed hours. Hours seemed
centuries. He could not move his
feet for fear of losing his toe hold
on the boulder and going with his
sister down to death.
At first he held fast to the skirts
with both hands, then, as that
straining position rendered him
nearly mad with pain, he alter
mated his hands every few min
utes, turning the freed hand
around to ease the strained mus
cles.

HELPFUL HINTS.

Food experts tell US that uncooked
sour kraut is a splendid broom for the
alimentary canal, as it chases away
the decay microbes. Butter milk and
sour milk are both valuable as
cleansers for the system.
When roses or other cut flowers are
to be kept an excellent way is to put
the stems into cold water in a deep
bedroom pitcher, wrap the stems and
flowers with dampened newspaper.
Keeping the air from the flowers is
the real secret and having them
damp and cool.
Boiled mutton is improved by the
addition of an onion and a teaspoon

To RenoVate OilcIoth.-Dissolve
carefully, as it is highly infammable,
n and a fourth ounces of parafine
in a pint of %turpentine by gentle heat.
Apply while warm with a flannel to

t~wenty-four hours and then polish
with a flannel. Use this preparation
spring and fall and double the life
of the floor covering.
Kerosene put on with a flannel
cloth is an excellent cleanser for oil

In cooking vegetables of all kinds,
a wire frying basket is a great con
venience, as the vegetables may be re-

the water does not boil away they
have a little time before scorching to

A pair of sheet iron baking sheets
are a boon to the busy housewife.
Have the sides bent, making a very

with one over heat. This is an i'm
portant item when using gas.

n cookery delights to overcome diff
culties and make do" with few tools
to work with. Did you ever see a
camper open a sack of -four, pour in
the water, add the salt, soda or ba-
king powder, stir up the dough with
a wooden paddle made with a jack
knife, and bake the dough before the
fire with never a dish or utensil to
use in its making? When we are
roughing it, it is what we can do with
out and make less baggage that is the
main thought.
The manufacturer is constantly on
the watch to see where time and ma
terial as well as the energy of his
workmen may be saved. When our
housekeepers put thought and plan
ming OF their work, saving steps for
themselves and their employees, we
will have less servant problems to
solve.
To make short cuts In housekeep-
ing doesn't mean that work is slight
ed or half done. Housekeeping is a
business, a profession, and women
are too prone to follow the ways of
their mothers before them, hence the
disordered, unsystematic condition
prevails.
In the business Of housekeeping it
Is just as true that the greatest eff
f~ciency is the result Of scientific man
agement as in any other line Of work.
One of the first things that a house
wife who directs others has to learn,
is how and what has to be done, and
the time it takes for a person of or
binary ability to do 1t.
The unreasonable demands of some
mistresses, who expect and demand
the impossible, are legion. A skilled
worker can, and does, accomplish
much more In a given time than one
who puts no thought into her work.
But skilled workers are scarce and
many are In training in our homes.
The arrangement of the utensils
used in cooking within the easiest
possible reach, the saving of steps by
using a tray to remove and carry in
dishes and food to and from the table,
in these as we'll as many others
with a little study one may see many
shortcuts.

Senate bill 70 and Assembly bill %

Senate bill 70 and Assembly bill %
provide for changes in the motor We
hicle law and, as such, only effect
this department in SO far as they
might reduce the motor vehicle fund.
At the request of the Commissioner
of Motor Vehicles, l handed Colonel
Colgate, chairman of the Highway
Committee, a schedule l had prepared
for ]. B. R. Smith, showing my ideas
of an equitable distribution of motor
vehicle charges among the different
classes of vehicles, which schedule
Mr.. Smith authorized me to say met
his approval. This schedule is drawn
so as to yield, under a reciprocity bill,
about the same revenue as would be
produced by an increase of so Per
cent. in present rates, and to distribute
the charges in accordance with the
opinion of this department as to the
damage done to road structures by
each class of vehicle.
GAS to this bill, I stated that l could
not see any inequity in the states
charging a reasonable sum as a COM
mutation toll for use of her roads nor
in her requiring anyone who had brok-
en- her law or injured any person
while using said roads to answer
therefor in her courts. The question
to be answered, l submitted, was whe-
Their insisting on these rights would
pay. While l hold definite views on
the subject, I feel that l have NJ right
to complicate the problems facing the
Road Department by urging such
views at this time.
81 also rendered any services I could
render Senator Gaunt or the Highway
Commission in the preparation of any
amendments to the pending bills,
which, l understand, are generally ad-
mitted to need some revision. l also
stated that as long as hearty co-opera-
ton and unity of purpose could be Sc
cured, good results could be had ever
with faulty and deficient organization
and plant.
while l did not discuss at any
Assembly bill 292, the Whyte
bill for revision of the state aid law,
l would respectfully commend it to
your favorable consideration. 1t has
been drawn to meet deficiencies in the
present law, to provide much needed
safeguards in the expenditure of the
vehicle fund and to simplify and
render more certain the issuing of
road improvement bonds. AS to the
feature, the measure has been
to and approved by promi-
nent attorneys for bond houses"
