Washington, April 4-sugar seems
to be the biggest lump of contention

sweet lump either. 1t is already en-

to cause a split unless a compromise

finally presented to Congress. The

has refused to prosecute upon promise

FLAYS ARCHIBALD

WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. 9.
the impeachment trial OF
Judge Robert w. Archibald of the
U. s. commerce court, charged
with misconduct, was resumed to-
day in the senate the sentiment
seemed to favor an early vote on
the disposition of the case. AS
the trial nears a close, senators
disposed to be friendly to the ac-
cused jurist hope there will be
sufficient votes cast to prevent a
verdict against him.
Representative John A. Sterl-
ing in cross examining Judge
Archibald yesterday declared that
he was unworthy of public office
and accused him of a System of
conduct with the railroads that it
smells to heaven
1.-The evil of the course of con-
duct that has been pursued by
Judge Archibald is the effect it
has upon the public mind" de-
The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1913-01-09

clared Representative Sterling.
1.-THE times now are pregnant
with the sentiment that there is
corruption in high places; justi-
fled in some instances, and not
justified in others. But in the
case of Judge Archibald, from the
conduct which we have proved
against him, it seems to me it
puts on trial that part of the con-
stitution relating to impeachment.
eff Judge Archibald is not con-
victed of these offenses and re-
moved from office, the verdict
will be that the constitution is at
fault, and that when a man COM
mits offenses of the character he
has committed, the people have
no redress. If the senate does
convict Judge Archibald, if the
constitution in this case is COM
piled with, as l believe it will be,
the people again will turn to the
old constitution as their refuge
and their harbor."

GOING TO RUN AWAY so
HE WON'T BE ELECTED

INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 9. =
Richard Leiber has an idea that
there were lot of people paying
more money for fire insurance
than they ought to, and that the
fire insurance companies were
getting a raw deal also. And he
set about working out q happy
means for both. He's succeeded
in doing it, too.
just now he's trying to
find way of keeping out of
the race for mayor to sue
coed Lew Shanks, when that
worthy's term expires this
year. The people of Indian
apolis hope he will fail in
this undertaking. Leiber
thinks he won't, because If
worst comes to worst he'll
fly the country and stay in
Germany for while.
When Lew Shanks was elected
mayor, Leiber was properly
shocked. A second rate auction
eer! A cheap publicity seeker
given the highest office in the
city! A great joke on the voters!
Then Shanks sent for Leiber
and asked him to head a vice
commission. Leiber didn't care
anything about going on a vice
commission. Fighting vice"
seemed to him a sort of spread
eagle, Fourth-of-July way of go
ing about reforming the city. He
suggested that the evils that ex-
listed be taken up one at a time
by a mayors advisory commits
sion.
"Finei" exclaimed Shanks.
Going, going, GONE! This fine
little mayors advisory commits
sion knocked down to Richard
Leiber. Now get cut of the offic,
