OUR FALUIBLE JUDICIARY.

Out of seventy-seven consecutive decisions rendered by the United States Supreme Court. twenty nine were given by q vote of five to four, and fortysiX by a vote of six to three; in only two instances did as many ae seven out of the nine justices agree This is the statement made by MT. John R. Dos PassOs in an address be- fore the New York County Lawyers Association. He added that a long pe- riod in the New York State Supreme Court showed fifty per cent of rever- sals in cases appealed.
 Such a record of uncertainty and disagreement in he highest courts ought to be enough to upset the rev erence for the judicial function so long cherished by the American people.
 Judges are men like the rest of us each with his own temperament, his pet prejudices. his fixed opinions, his desires and even his interests, personal or social which influence his interpre- tatiOn of evidence and of legal texts. Dressing a man in a black gown and setting him on an elevated bench does not free him from bias.
 It is late in the day to argue the ab- surdity of permitting any five out of nlne dlgnl1led Olu gentlemen m wash ingtOn to OVerrule the acts of congress and permanently to thwart the will of the great majority of the people. unless that majority happens to be so geo. graphically distributed as to control three -fourths of the state legislatures.
 Like most superstitiOns, the worship of the judiciary does not readily yield to reason. But it is now pretty rapid " being undermined by practical ex- perience. The time cannot be far off when we shall have change in Article V of the federal constitution and an amendment to the judiciary act that will take away from the supreme court it's power of absolute veto.-Algernon Lee in the August Metropolitan.

LIQUOR CAUSES fIFTY-TWO
 GETIYSBURGS EACH YEAR
So says w G Calderwood, Mime sota Prohibi bition Orator in
 Speech Las Night

w. c. Calderwood. the Minnesota Prohibition orator who addressed an open air meeting of five hundred men and women in the city hall plaza last night. said that the Whiskey trf- fife was equal in point of devastation to human life in this country to fifty GettySburgs a year. one for every week. He quoted figures to show that 100.000 persons die as q result of it's work in every year
 MT. Calderwood appeared in this city as a lecturer of the prohibition party in behalf of an amendment to the federal constitution prohibiting the manufacture and sale of spirit uOus liquors? He said he believed he would live to see such an amendment a part of the constitution of the United States. More people were coming to recognize each year that the whole effect of the traffic was to damage the citizenship of the United States and to destroy the effect of the constitution which guarantees to every citizen the right to life. liberty and the pursuit of hapiness
 The liquor traffic he said destroys life. infringes liberty. and is destruc- tive to happiness, and therefore came wholly within the province of the central government to exercise con- trol over it.
 MT. Calderwood claims to be a pro fessional politician. He says his only work IS for the cause of prohibition and that he is chairman of the party in Minnesota. Prior to that time he was an insurance agent, where he learned to conserve his facts, state them concisely and speak with telling effect. This is his first trip to the Salt River valley and he is both amazed and delighted. He will speak at Tempe this morning, returning to Phoenix for lunch. He will then go to Glendale and Peoria for afternoon speeches in an automobile and will speak at Wickenburg at night.
