AN EVIL IN THE FEDERAL
COURTS.

Golfers Weekly: The resignation
OF United States District Attorney Nc
Nab of the northern district of Cali
fornia has called attention to an evil
of long standing in the department
Of justice The attorney general of
the United States has general super
visory jurisdiction and control over
the different United States district
attorneys. This control does not con-
template interference with the indict-
ments of grand juries or the verdicts
of petty juries, except in rare in
stances and under extraordinary cir
cumstances which may warrant such
interference. The federal judges and
the, district attorneys should be free
from the constant Interference Of the
department of justice. Perhaps, If
the evil had not grown to such mag
nitude and had not been made the
excuse for some gross .favoritisms and
miscarriaaes of justice in recent years,
Mr.. McNab's sensational resignation
might not have echoed so loudly
throughout the nation.

THAT WILL NOT DO 1T.

The British house Of lords threatens
to go on a strike. That body is dis
tinctly a tory organization. It's men,
hers are constitutional stand p~atters.
They are so because they are built
hat way and cannot help It. They
do not believe that the world ought
to move, and they do all that they
can to retard its progress. This. Of
course. applies to the majority, not
by any means to all Of the members.
The majority in the upper body does
not believe in Irish home rule, Of
disestablishment. or workmen's insur-
ance, or anything else that is included
in the liberal program. Until recent
ly it was possible for the lords. acting
in a constitutional manner, to defeat
any legislation which they did not
approve, regardless at what might be
the popular demand for it. Because
the commons had the people behind
them the lords in cases Of emergency
have swallowed some bitter doses.
and n Of them was the act limiting
their w powers, and providing for
the passage of legislation by the COM
non alone when the lower house
passed a bill the second time after
an interval of two years. The Irish
bill is practically in process of being
passed in his manner, and the sug-
gestion has been made that the lords
adjourn until a time later than the
duration Of the present parliament.
If that were one the Irish bill could
not come before them. hence action
would be stopped.
The chances are that those Of the
upper chamber who are intending to
adopt this plan will think better of
it. It is quite within the bounds of
possibility. in fact, 1t is not at all i'm
probable. that if the lords were to
adopt this peculiar procedure and
walk out they would find the doors
locked against, them when they UNI
dertook to reassemhle. The British
nation has decided that it can make
laws without the assistance, and in
spite Of the opposition Of the lords.
1t would be very easy for them to
conclude that they could legislate
equally we'll with the house of lords
abolished entirely. And that is about
what would happen.

An hour later Clara was willing to
go home, to her husbands delight. He
hustled into his overcoat, and yawned
when he was saying good night to his

did not see the TWO returning.

she was eating rapidly. and waiting
on the two children-Ruth, aged four,
and Alice, six. Her hair was f1uffed
and her face was powdered.
10 looked at her admiringly. He
was a big hroad-shouldered man, but
awkward looking even when sitting.
He didn't cnthuse W the coming
gayety. I'D rather stay home with
the kids" he sighed. I'm not strong
Don't care much for him.
Clara buttered Ruth another slice
of bread in non-committal silence. but
the shadow Of a frown lay upon her
pretty face. Her under lip was press
ed closely against the upper-a trick
she had when she was not pleased.
And then she looked at 10 from under
lowered eyelids. Secretly she was
comparing him with the man he de-
precated, and the comparison was not
favorable. She did not exactly like

geniality and poise and the same we'll

general assistant, worked hard and

shaved and had his clothes pressed. 10
was awkward in look and manner.
Tell you what" he said presently.
"I'll take you and come home and stay
with the kids. Then I'll come after
you"
You'll do no such thing" Clara
cried. tearfully. II think you're mean.
Other women's husbands like to go
to places. I've got the maid from next
door to stay with the children. And,

good naturally.
But clara did not laugh. Her frown
deepened. She hurried into the next
room to complete her dressing. Later
when 10 was dressed and they were
ready to start a CLEAN Of hostile crit

at his tall. stoop shouldered form.
10 was waving his hand at Ruth and
missed his wife's look.

shook hands with his host and hostess,

was absorbed in conversation, then
promptly went to a corner behind
some palms, where, with a friend of
similar bent, he talked shop.
Clara sighed resignedly and pro-
ceeded to enjoy .herself. The double
parlors. library and reception rooms
were crowded with guests. Mrs. Brit

restlessly. She was a thin, oldish
woman, with a faded prettiness that
made one understand why her hus-
