Hobson and Underwood.
m the New York World.

From the New York World.
Probably Thomas T. Ryan never
gave money to promote political
campaign less selfishly than when, at
the beginning of the late presidential
primaries, he contributed to the sup
port of Oscar w. Underwood's aspi-
rations. 1t is to be remembered that
in the same contest he also favored
Judson Harmon. of Ohio, thus aiding
the two more conservative candidates
against the more radical.
The charge made yesterday in the
House of Representatives by Mr..
Hobson. who is Mr.. Underwood's OPP
ponent for the Alabama senatorship,
must be considered with reference to
the character and public service Of
both men. That Mr.. Underwood is
not and never has been a tool of
Wall Street or other selfish interest
is proved by thel record of every
hour of his public life.
Whatever Mr.. Ryan's motive may
have been. there never was an Incl
dent in the political career of either
of these men that could give the
slightest foundation to the suspicion
that in any sinister way they were
Ryan's men or Wall Streets men.
Both have proved true to the people
in very trying positions.
Politically, Mr.. Hobson has always
been false He has been war
maker. a breeder of trouble. a lingo
who out iingoed even the armor-
plate ring. the powder trust and the
shipbuilders He has always been
found on the side of the subsidy
seekers. and, so far as memory serves,
he has never had a word for lower
taxes. for peace or for justice.
1t is to be regretted that the Ala
bama contest has been introduced
thus extensively into the House of
Representatives but we are confident
that Mr. Underwood will not suffer
by the comparisc. which Mr.. Hob
son has invited

Judge Davis himself was ranked
among the ablest Of the men who
have been distinguished in the
American judiciary He lost the
nomination for the United States
Senate in 1863, having been defeated
by Roscoe Conkling by two votes.
His long career in public life and
upon the bench of the Supreme Court
of New York State, and his associa-
ton with Sanford E. Church, who
was New York's first candidate for
the presidential nomination of 1868,
brought Judge Davis into touch per-
sonally and professionally with many
of the men who were distinguished
in public life between 1850 and 1890.
IF Judge Hunts nomination as an
associate justice of the Supreme
Court at Washington was due to the
recommendation of Roscoe Conkling.
then Conkling performed a great
service" continued Judge Davis. II

We're on the bench in the courts of
New York State at the same time.
He was a very learned man, yet he
was curiously shy, although I have
noticed that that is sometimes a
characteristic of men of very great
intellectual ability. He was a very
proud man, and yet without a par
ticle of circumstances or vanity.
Judge Hunts career upon the
United States Supreme Court bench
was terminated in one of the saddest
and most tragic incidents associated
with the career Of any of the great
men who have sat upon that bench,
and one of which few persons at the
time had any knowledge. He went
to the bench with high ambition and
he was an industrious a member of
that bench as any who ever sat upon
il. After he had been in service about
eight years he was suddenly stricken
with organic disease which almost
totally incapacitated him. His mind
was not affected. but his physical
powers were practically lost. He lay
constantly upon his bed suffering no
pain, but completely Frustrated.
Judge Hunts Illness was the cause
of serious embarrassment to the court

just in front of the pupil, as very
frequently happens, the vision of that
eye would be seriously and perhaps
permanently impaired.
The public should understand the
seriousness of such occurrences, and
public spirit should be aroused to the
point of insisting on municipal regu-
lation, eliminating smoke and dust
as far as possible from city streets.
Having the streets washed every
night, as is done in many of the Eu-

WASHINGTON LETTER
BY H;B. . l5a.M STAR STAFF
WALKER SeS5Szyss laRESPONDENT
SENATE coNvlNcEs WILSON

| cloture rule several months ago, and
| it has won ready support on both
sides of the Senate. Such rule
has been urged in years past, by
Senator Lodge and other Republic
cans. but the proposal has never
come to a vote.
1t is expected that any proposal
for limiting debate will be opposed
by number of Southern senator's,
who still bark back to the time when
a filibuster, which cloture would have
made impossible defeated the pass
age of the Force bill giving the fed
eral government control of State
elections. Senator La Toilette is ex-
pected to lead the fight against clo-
ture. as he is known to be opposed
to any Proposal for limiting debate.
He has personally conducted several
filibusters. the most conspicuous be-
ing his effort to talk the Aldrich-
Vreeland emergency currency bill to
death a few years ago, in which eff
fort he failed after talking for eigh-
teen hours continuously. La Toilette
had left the floor to take a nap, and
Senator Gore. the blind senator from
Oklahoma. was to have kept the
filibuster going with the help of Sen
ator Stone of Missouri and others.
Gore yielded the floor, believing Stone
was present to keep the talkfest go
ing until La Toilette reappeared, but
the Missouri man was asleep at the
switch" and before he could get to
the floor the vote had been ordered.
Stone and O'GOrmaB May Clash.
If Senator stone, who is nowadays
one of the most rampant of admin
istration hackers, carries out his
threat to make a speech this week
attacking Democrats who have de-
layed consideration of the currency
bill, there is likely to be music. Sen
ator O'Gorman, of New York. is one
of the members of the banking and
currency committee who has stood
out against the Presidents orders to
speed UP Senate action on the legis-
lation, and Stone has limited that he
purposes to say some things about
the New York senator's attitude and
his possible reasons for insisting on
delay. O'Gorman has told his friends
that if the Missouri man attacks him,
he will dig into some ancient Mis-
souri, politics. and recall chapters in
the career of "Gumshoe Bill' which
will make interesting reading at this
time. In the present dullness, other
senators are hoping that both men

Announcing himself a c an independent

New York districts where there are
vacancies to be filled at next months

ceived from Sulzer to this advice and

posed governor is going to wait

Correct Spelling.

must have been delighted with the
outspoken remarks by Sir oliver
Lodge and Sir William Ramsay, at
Birmingham, on Monday, on the hum
BILE subject of spelling. Sir oliver said
that spelling always seemed to him a
matter of Providence; you were either
born with it or without it. He had
known highly educated people who
were unable to spell, the reason
usually being that they knew too
many modern languages.
There is much truth and much com
mon sense in this statement for in
these days most people who would be
described as educated know something
of French and German. and what is
more natural than that a man, when
brought up against the fussy little
variations in the spelling of the three
languages, should sometimes be hope
lessly lost? The French write La
grande Bretagne." and we ourselves
write Great Britain" but we call
their "Bretagne' Brittany" The
French write "galerie" and we write
gallery" and so forth. And what
with the different ways of spelling the
same word in different languages and
the terror of dealing with such abom-
Unable words as gauge, seize and siege
it is really a wonder that so many
people spell with absolute accuracy;
but no wonder at all that so many
others agree with Sir William Ramsey

itself, There were many important
cases before it for decision. The
judges were overworked and to their
great labor was added the work
which Judge Hunt would have done
had he been able to sit upon the
bench
Cautious inquiries showed that
Judge Hunts illness was organic and
permanent That left the court short
one member. But there was no way
by which the vacancy could be filled
unless Judge Hunt resigned 1t was
learned that this great man-one of
the greatest lawyers the country has
ever possessed-was in absolute de-
pendence upon his salary for his sup
port. He had practically no property
from which he could derive any in
come. He had not served upon the
bench long enough to take advantage
of the law which permitted a Judge
after ten years of service to retire
upon a pension of full service.
when it was learned that two
years must pass before Judge Hunt
would be entitled to take advantage
of this law, and when it was also
learned that if he lost his place upon
the bench he would be absolutely
penniless, the suggestion was made
that legislature be secured which
enable the vacancy to be filled bv
permitting Judge Hunt to retire al
once upon full pension. But there
We're found to be serious objections 10
such legislation. The Supreme Court.
therefore, was compelled TO sit for
two years short one member. AT the
end of the two years Judge Hunt re-
signed. and then the law which per-
mitted him to receive a pension of
$4,000 a year became effective. He
lived only two years after his retire
ment."
