Postotfice Bill Passed by House.

An attempt to revoke President
Taft's recent order placing fourth
class postmasters under the classified
civil service and to remove from
classification assistant postmasters
and clerks in first and second class
postofiices by an amendment to the
postoffice appropriation bill failed in
the house. The bill, carrying S27S,-
4S9,7Sl, was passed.
The bill shows an increase of about
s7,OO0,OO0 over the postal approprla-
tions for the present year, due in part
to the expenses of the parcel post
.
Vote on Six-Year Term Near.
y The senate agreed to set apart the
legislative day of Jan. 30 for vote on
the resolution introduced by Senator
Works of California and reported from
the judiciary committee proposing a
constitutional amendment limiting the
term of the president TO six years and
making him ineligible for reelection.

The mailing of babies by parcel post
is the real infant industry Postmaster
General Hitchcock has been asked to
foster.
In the circumstances of his bach
elorhood Mr.. Hitchcock is considering
seriously calling into consultation ex-
perts in the transportation of babies,
as a letter which he received presents
to him a mail problem with which he
is quite unfamiliar. To add to his
embarrassment the letter contains a
note OF genuine pathos which appeals
strongly to the postmaster general,
This is the letter, identically as it
was phrased and punctuated:

WOULD ADD TWO
MORE JUSTICES
Senator Cores Bill Provides
For Larger Supreme Bench
MIGHT MAKE IT DEMOCRATIC

Pomerene's Resolution Has to Do
With Future impeachment Cases and
Provides For impeachment Court
Two additional justices OF the su.
preme court of the United States are
authorized in a bill offered in the sen.
ate by Senator Gore of Oklahoma.
This would raise the membership OF
the court to eleven. The Democrats
now have three members, the chief
justice and two associate justices,
Llwton and Lamar. II is believed that
the author of the bill has no eXpecta'
tion that it will pass this session, but
under the stimulus of a Democratic
administration it might go through a
Democratic congress. In that case
President Wilson would name the
justices and probably reverse the
Democratic representation on the
highest court to five out of eleven.
One almost certain result OF the pas
sage of Senator Cores bill would be
to make the supreme court, which is
now Republican, to 3, Democratic
body, for it is almost certain at least
one vacancy will occur in the next ad
ministration.

Bill Provides For Impeachments.

Bill Provides For Impeachments.
Taking his cue from the impeach-
ment of Judge Archibald Senator Pom
creme of Ohio introduced in tha senate
a Joint resolution which proposes a
constitutional amendment in regard to
impeachment trials.
The proposed amendment provides
"that congress may provide for other
causes OF impeachment than those now
provided for and other methods for
the trial of all civil officers except the
president, vice president and supreme
court judges"
The resolution would provide a spe-
cial impeachment court to try judges.
Senator Pomerene's idea in introduc-
ing the resolution, he explained, is to
broaden the constitutional limitations
on impeachment in order to remove
by statute all doubt of the right of
congress to impeach an official who
at the same time could not be in
dicted.

Yhe Parish Fairs.

The parish fairs are dong great
deal in some of the parishes TO de-
veIop agriculture and to stimulate
stock raising, but we also notice q
tendency in some places to permit
travelling shows to monopollze 100
much space. The late Monroe 1alf
presented the appearance OF the
Chicaog Gladway although there
were a number of very fine exhibits
connected with the fair proper
Homer Guardian Journal.
Without the parish fairs the State
Fair would have vacant the spaces
now filled in Agricultural Hall with
the splendidly attractive exhibits
from the farms. And there would
also be in limited numbers only the
swine. the cattle and the horses, IN
brief. the varied products of Louis
lana.
The purpose as we'll as the prime
aim of the State Fair is to encour-
age development and progress in
agricultural pursuits and as an in
centive to higher development, to
a betterment Of general conditions
as the contrasts by comparison in
the various exhibits. The intelli-
gent farmer will be naturally I'M
pressed and will not hesitate to inn
prove his opportunities from the
practical development offered at
such exhibitions.
