Sketch of His Career

| BOISE, Sept. 26.-The death of
Chief Justice Geo. H. Stewart of the su-
preme court of Idaho creates a va
cancy which Governor Haincs will be
required to fill by appointment until
! a successor shall be elected at the
next general election.
Justice Stewart was born at Con-
nersvillc, Ind, in 1858. He graduated
from the law department of the North
Indiana Normal school in 1886. Until
1896 he practiced his profession in
Nebraska and then moved to Idaho.
In 1898 he was elected state senator
and in 1896 was appointed Judge of
the district court of Ada county. In
1906 he was elected justice of the SUI
preme court and reelected two years
ago.
Upon Governor Haines has devolved
the duty Of appointing majority of
the members of the supreme court
He recently appointed Judge Warren
Truitt to succeed James F. Ailshie, re-
signed, to hold office until his success
sor is elected in November
No appointment will be made at this
time and there is question whether
the law provides for an election to fill
the vacancy or whether Governor
Haines can appoint for the complete
term.

STATE GRANGE

State Master F. c. Banerofts Annual
Address Contains Much Information.

The Delaware State Grange, Patrons OF
Husbandry, met in annual session at
Dover on Tuesday. The feature of the
session, the biennial election, took place
on Thursday, too late for publication.
Parts of the address of Worthy Master
F. {, Bancroft read by Secretary Wesley
Webb, in the absence of the master, who
is i'll, follows;
1t is with pleasure we are assembled
in our capital tity at this our 10th annual
session.
Agriculture is ever in the front rank
and it is due to the Grange influence that
we are having such splendid corn shows
and fruit exhibits, also the organizing of
corn clubs and the interest in poultry
husbandry. The smith Levier law pro-
vides for $4,000 for each State and will
be increased each year until Delaware
receives SIS, 900, which will matarially
aid agriculture in Delaware. We already

been chosen president of the State w. C
I. U. and know the Patrons of Dela-
ware will do all they can to secure peace
and prosperity for Delaware
The Grange has ever been ready to
champion the cause of justice and right.
The many sad accidents of the past sum
mer only serve to emphasize the fact that
we must demand increased protection
for obscure railroad crossings. Our
roads are not improved permanently by
the new system of road building and
supervision; therefore we desire Fed
eral aid for road building. The law for
the marking OF packages should have
penalty attached, thereby protecting the
honest packer. This will be a busy sea-
son for our Legislative committee.
Our State is traversed by one railroad
and many steamboat companies; there
seems to be little choice in rates, hence
we will look to the auto truck to help
US solve these problems.

A student of the Bible, reverencinr il
as the Word of God, the only infallible
rule OF faith and practice, he was
most happy IN his presentation of truth
from the desk in the school, and he will
be long remembered for the earnest stness
and simplicity with which he pressed
upon US the duties and privileges of the
Christian life. "
