Thursday that the 1914 crop through
OUT the state is far more promising
'hah II has been in many years. He
adds that favorable conditions apply
10 every county I'm the state. The re-
port also shows that the crop of new
orchards combined with old orchards
should enter a larger number of cars

at any time In the history of the state.
MIR. Taylor also shows I'm his report
that the marketing of thee rop has
been greatly facilitated during the last
rev years, aud that careful prepara-
IONS nave been made to turn the
orchard output into quick profit. He
comments that fruitgrowers' organiza-
IONS are stronger this year than they
have been before, while individual
shippers have better facilities than In
the past for putting their product on
the market
Summary OF the condition of various
kinds of fruit in the state Is given as
follows in the report:

LENTEN SERVICES
AT CATHEDRAL

Cathedral to hear the noted speakers
Of the Lenten course.
On Wednesday evening the Rev.
Charles H. Harrigan, formerly Of
Wilmington, but now Of Richmond,
va, held the congregation spell-bound
for an hour on the necessity Of doing
penance. ASHES we're always sym
Dol of penance from the earliest ages
Of the church" said he.
Even before the Christian era the
nations in time of danger, commanded
the people to garb themselves in sack
cloth and to strew ashes upon their
heads. The church which clings fast
to the tradition of her infancy, al
ways insists in q special manner that
her children, at this particular time,
consecrated to expiating our sins, do
penance."
The Rt. Rev Bishop Monsignor
John A. Lyons, the Rev. John j..
Dougherty, Martin NJ. Ryan and
James W. Grant were in the sanctu-
airy.
On Thursday evening the Rev.
Antonio Garritano spoke to the

Of holding fast to their faith. Father
Garritano has wonderful ability as a
speaker though a young man. He

Both would tend to break down
the courts" he said. appearing as
president Of the American Bar As

form and simplify court practices

praised BY the ex-President. lie de-
ciared against election of Judges. but
held that impeachment inves.iga-
tons Of Congress serve valuable
purpose
Let the judges know they are
under watch and that impeachment Ia
q real thing and not a soarecrcy. :"
he commented.
Inc former President was given a
cordial reception by both Democrats
ana Republicans. He "joshed" many
old friends.
Are you still kissing babies IN
your district campaigns" he askod
representative Kinkaid, of Nobraslta
I've been called everything except
Colonel, he told a friend who called
him Mr.. President"
since getting into respectable busi-
ness, I've never been 80 happy in nv
me-, he lokingly observed to another.
I've felt some timidity about coming
here,' the ex-presdent said. in opepin9
his testimony before the committee.
IRON the fact that I'm in favor of
improving the Judiciary, thought many
people would be against it-holdng that

There is no country where judicial
procedure has made such an advance
as in England-in dispatch Of business
There, they are able 10 get through muir
der cases in three or four DAYS that
would take three OF four weeks here.
There are great many attacks made
on our judiciary. There are defects in
the administration of Justice But YOU
can't have perfect Justice. The trouble
with these attacks is that they're based
ON the wrong ground. Judges are men.
They, like other men, delight in the ex-
crcise of patronage.
You say you don't like patronage.
but you do; it's very comfortable to
have It at times"
Taft said Federal judges should not
have any patronage to distribute.
Endorsing the scheme OF life tenure
OF Federal judges. he said.
The life judiciary is the system
that can save the administration of
justice. An elective judiciary would
weaken IT,"
Taft said he had appointed about
thirty-siN per cent of the present
Federal judiciary and Thought as a
rule they were good aud strong men. "
