against Judge A. G. Dayton, OF the
Northern district of West Virginia,
were sent to the president by the
wheeling labor representatives and
because the charges against botn
Judges had the same sort Of career and
ended in each case IN dismissal.
The charges we're sent in each case
to the presid emit, who turned them over.
to the attorney general, who in turn
sent them to the House committee on
the Judiciary. In each case they
reached the press and the names OF
4he persons making the charges were
published. The judiciary committee
dismissed the charges in each case on
the ground that 1t had no authority 70

ask the House for authority 70 con-
alder them unless sworn testimony TO
sustain them were submitted.
