EXIT d ARCHIBALD,

The impeachment Of Judge Archibald,
of the court, was a fore
gone conclusion. Even II the senate
accepted the accused ~jurist's plea that
NO dishonest act was contemplated, the
evidence was conclusive that Archibald
had been guilty of questionable deal
ings with coal companies involved in
litigation before his court.
When a man becomes a member of
the judiciary, law and morality and
justice demand that he keep free from
business and financial associations and
entanglements which might in the
slightest degree prejudice his mind or
prevent an impartial Interpretation of
the law. Archbald's desire to make
money involved him in relations which
impaired his efficiency as a judge.
The unanimity Of the vote in the
senate indicates that the upper house
Of ongress is getting nearer the peo-
pie. While the initiative in the Arch
bald Impeachment was taken by the
house, and a committee of house mem
bers appeared as prosecutor, the senate
evidenced a disposition to try the case
on its merits, in contrast to a one-time
public sentiment among
a majority OF the members Of that
former august body.

The Dubuque Industrial Corporation
is starting in in good time to secure
an enactment by the present legisla-
ture regulating the business of loan
ing IN chattel security.
The law should not seek to put out
of business altogether the man or firm
engaging in it for profit, and besides
permitting the organization Of cor
porations for the business Of loanins
1t should provide that all who loan
money shall be licensed and their bus
mess be subject to the supervision by
the city where they operate. There
should also be exacted q license fee
to reimburse cities for the expense en-
tailed in supervision-an amount that
need be no more than 500 a year.
1t is just as important that the OPP
p%ortunity to borrow on chattel security
shall not be taken away from the poor
as that the poor shall be protected
from extortionate exactions. Whatever
the license fee imposed. the borrower
in the end will have to pay it and II

GENTLY large to keep capital In the 8
