SAYS RECALL OF
JUDGES NECESSARY

Professor George NJ. Phillips, OF the
West Chester State Normal School
gave one Of the most interesting lee
lures in political and social questions
ever heard In this city last night in
Hanover Presbyterian Church. He
took for his subject. New Things In
Government" and brought his hearers
up through the tines when the con-
stitution was formed to the present
day, he said that the government UNI
der the constitution 100 years ago was
much different than il Is today but
that one Of the greatest changes that
has taken place under that document
was the change in our courts and the
the Arehbold trial had shown con-
clusively that the recall of judges
was not necessary in this country.
The meeting was presided over by
Samuel H. Baynard and was largely
attended. The Civics class Of the
High School was present at the loc-
ture and greatly enjoyed It.

strike of an artesian well OF the

the water came through with on
siderable pressure and spoutcd about
six feet. Mr.. Pcndarvis seemed very
enthusiastic about the first spouting
well and stated that the indications
were, from the formation that he had
gone through in the boring, that wells
could be dug in many places in the
little Bitter Root country, which dis

water in the Well on the Bartlett ranch
