It is to be hoped that the various bar assOcia- tOns and all and several the defenders the sacred courts will take prompt and appropriate action with respect to one Wesley O. Howard, justice of the supreme court of New York and assigned to service the appellate division.
 The ark of the is danger the pillars of the temple are being pulled down, is being laid to the root of the tree of liberty, gnaWng at the foundations of society, when a rabid juriSt, forgetting the responsibilities his place, outcries Teddy Roosevelt in his criticism the courts. It is not meet that a newspaper should suggest what penalty should be visited this be- trayer of his trust Boiling in oil seems forbidden by the constitutional inhibition cruel and unusual punishment. But there impeachment to stingng him with sharp and biting words, o against freezing him with cold looks from the bench and the bar.
 Justce Howard says that many decisions today record the views mot of the judges who sign them, but of judges who lived before the Renaissance The rule of precedent he says dominates the rule of right, and it is dishonesty but conservatism that weakens the bench" Think the shame of a judge uttering such words!

Pure Water and Pure Milk
Louisville Courier -JOurnaD

Louisville Courier -JournaD
 The fact that the number of deaths from typhoid fever Louisville in 1912 the smallest recorded 1903 is encouraging Since Louisville has had filtered water the number of deaths from this dis has decreased with every passing year.
 There is encouragement also in the statement in the annual report of the city health department that infant mortality from excessive heat decreased 50 per cent during 1912 due to pure milk and the education of mothers in better sanitary measures.
 These figures prove that the expression pre- ventable disease" is idle dream meaningless phrase Improvements in sanitation are reflected in decreased mortality lists This goes show that sanitation is emnently worth while. There has great betterment in LOusves health status in recent years, and it because of the prevalence of better sanitary conditions.
 If pure water and pure milk prevent disease and life, there is every reason why should look scrupulously after the purity of the supply of each of these indispensable adjuncts of life well or cistern may be a neighborhOod convenience, but it may contain the seeds of death and if there is there has been investigation by the health authOri- ties. Those who sell unclean milk peddling the germs of disease and should be put of business unless they mend their ways and their methods.
 Louisville has benefited incaluculably by the campaign of the health department for purer water and purer milk, and will benefit for the future if the vigilance of the authorities is maintained.
