Senator Declares Jurists Were Inves-
tieated to Influence Their Action In
| Government Cases.
| Washington, Aug. S-The fiat charge
| that department of justice agents had
| investigated federal judges to influ-
| ence their action in cases in which the
government was interested was made
| in the senate by Senator Borah and
| endorsed, partially at least, by Sena-
| tor Norris
Senator Eorah's charge was brought
out by a report from Attorney General
McReynolds, responding to a senate
resolution asking where federal agents
were investigating judges. The resolu-
tlon reflected some sentiment aroused
in the case of Federal Judge Speer, of
Georgia, whose court had been inves-
tlgated, and who had attacked the de-
partment OF justice in public speech.
The attorney generals reply was that
any report that the federal department
of justice was maintaining a system of
| espionage over judges was entirely
without foundation
Senator Borah responded with his
charges. 81 know this is a very seri-
GUS charge" said he, but I am so re-
liably informed that l make the state
ment that within the last four or five
years special agents have carried on
such Investigations with a view to in
fuencing judges"
Senator Norris declared he did not
have all the information that Senator
Borah had but he believed his state
ments were based on fact
The attorney generals report de-
clared that only three judges had been
w. Archibald.
Senator Works, who introduced the |
resolution. denounced the attorney |
generals report as "evasive' and un-
satisfactory and announced that he
would make further demand for in
formation.
Senator Borah's charge was charac-
terized as startling by Senators
Crawford and Sutherland The latter
declared it needed investigation, and
that if such sinister influences" con-
tlnued, the end of the republic was in
sight ."
Senator Hoke Smith asked Senator
Borah for the exact time when fed
eral agents had been making efforts
to influence judges in behalf of gov
ernment cases. Il think it has been
going on more or less tiuuousiK faz J
| the asrT Tour or fIve years, Responded
| Mr.. Borah.
"These judges are practically under
| the control of the department as far
as promotion and demotion is concern
| ed," said Senator Borah. "They have
| been made to know what the govern
ment desires in cases, and even what
| kind of a decision the government de-
sires handed down. If We are going to
| have a judiciary subject to secret in
| fluences | am in favor of popular cleo

able, According to Assistant At

Writes at Length of Subject.

Jackson.-An interesting opinion re-
garding the allowing of claims by boards
of supervisors without citing the law,
and whether the chancery clerk would
be liable upon his bond for the issuance
OF a warrant SO allowed, was given in the
office of the attorney-general, in an
swering an inquiry from the district at
torney OF the 10th circuit court district.
Assistant Attorney-General Ethridge
holds that the statute that the law he
cited is directory and the board may be
indicted for failure to observe it. He
thinks the chancery clerk should refuse
to issue a warrant where the law is not
cited.
The letter to the district attorney
fully explains the points involved, that
are very interesting, and which have FIRE.

SLUMP IN BEER PRODUCTION
Decrease In Output Of Beverage IT
1,106,42e Barrels Compared With
the Previous Year.

Looks as If beer drinking is on the
decline In the United States.
Uncle Sam produces the figures to
prove 1t.
According to the annual report OF
the internal revenue commissioner for
the fiscal year ending June 80, there
was a decrease in the output of beer
Of 1~,106,429 barrels compared with the
previous year.
That's a big decrease.
Counting 80 gallons to the barrel,
and there Is more. 1t means a slump
of 33,192,S70 gallons.
Counting only ten glasses to the gal
lon, it means a decrease of 331,92S,7O
drinks.
Counting each drink five cents, !
shows that s16,596,455 less was spent
for beer in 1912 than in 1911.
There was an increase in the pro-
duction of whisky, but the bonded
warehouses are filled with the stuff.
and distillers are all FUSED up be
cause the supply is far exceeding the
demand.
