ONE MANS OPINIONS
BYN. D. COCHRAN

A Judicial Comedy.-How far can
a federal, judge go without being
yanked up for impeachment?
The case of Judge Emery Speer of
Georgia will give you an idea. The
House judiciary committee has been
investigating charges against Speer
and the majority report says:
Early in his judicial career Judge
Speer ascertained the limit which he
could go before liability to impeach-
ment for official conduct would &C
crue, and went as close to the line
upon many occasions as safety would
permit.
But the subcommittee does feel
that the records present a series of
legal expressions and shows an
abuse of judicial discretion, which
though falling short of impeachment
proceedings, demand condemnation
and criticism.
1T was rare indeed that jury was
permitted to return verdict con-
trary to his wishes, regardless of the
facts"
And then the committee quit. What
more did they want? Isn't that
enough to show Speer isn't fit to be
a justice of the peace in a country
township?
If Judge Speer insisted on being
the jury as well as the judge, he GER
tainly deprived itigants of the right
of trial by jury, and that ought to
be reason enough for kicking him off
the bench.
Such cases ought to help convince
people that they can't get rid of judi
cial misfits until they have the right
of recall by the people.
Milton and the Waiter.-In his
lengthy brief for the Chicago Tun-
mel Co.. Lawyer Dan Schuyler tries
to prove that when the phone fran
chise says the company must be serv-
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1914-06-26

poor old Milton out of his grave and
quotes from Milton's Sonnet On His
Blindness, as follows:
His state
''Is kingly; thousands at his bidding
speed,
"And post DER land and ocean with
out rest;
They ALSO SERVE who only stand
and wait"
The jokes on Dan. He may think
he is poet and understands poetry,
but his trolley's off.
Being somewhat of a poet myself
and having read a few PONIES, l can
give Dan some information he didn't
have before.
What Milton meant when he said
''they also serve who only stand and
wait" was exactly what he said. At
the time Milton was stopping at a
hotel in London where the service
was good, and he happened to have
an especially good waiter.
This waiter would stand behind
Milton when he was looking over the
score card to see what he wanted to
eat. Having finally got Milton's or
der for ham-and, the waiter would
go to the kitchen, get the grub, bring
it back and stand by Milton and wait
on him.
Never once did either the landlord
or the waiter put in claim that they
had the ham and eggs in the kitchen
and were going to keep them there
because being ready with the ham
and eggs constituted service.
Instead the waiter brought the
ham and eggs into Milton and finish
ed the service by delivering the
goods.
Whcih nightly pleased the poet,
the eggs being fresh, and he straight
way wrote a pome about the service.
Milton was there, the waiter was
there, the ham and eggs were there.

Celebrate LIEGE CAPTURE
ress Was Taken Six Days
After Mobilization

Berlin, Aug. II, via London.-Berlin
has been celebrating not only the cap
ture of Liege, but the victory of the
German troops in upper Alsace." The
Berlin Tagerblatt publishes an appar-
emily authorized statement which
reads:
Nothing has been able to arrest in
the smallest degree or to confuse the
advance of our troops. which has pro-
ceeded with mechanical precision. Ev-
erything is working wonderfully and
with that We can be content
THE first casualty list will be found
perhaps rather heavy, but that is our
return for the price paid for the pro-
lection Of our Prussian provinces.
How great would our losses have
been in blood and treasure if the Rus
slams had entered the country?
''Liege we have achieved six days
after mobilization, with the losses
which the assault cost us. This is a
military success, the Importance OF
which is absolutely incalculable Had
a siege been necessary We would not
have escaped so cheaply."

PANAMA CANAL OPENED;
u. s. SHIP MAKES TRIP
Waterway Through Panama Zone ls
Now Ready for Worlds
Vessels.

Panama, Aug. 1.-THE canal zone
celebrated the opening Of the canal.
The festivities, however, were only
local and suggested little of the inter
national significance of the event
With the official Panama celebration
set for next spring, even the United
States was not officially represented
except by the men who have long been
in the Canal zone.
The steamship AncOn, owned by the
United States war department and
leased to the Panama railroad for SER
vice in the New York-Colon trade, was
chosen as the first big boat to be put
through, signalling the opening of the
canal to all ships up to 10000 tons reg
ister
Shortly before nine o'clock in the
morning the Ancon started from the
Atlantic side and arrived in the Pacific
at six o'clock in the evening.
Invitations to be guests on this first
trip had been much coveted and the
rails were lined with local canal Off
Gals and those of the Panama repub-
lie, together with their ladies, as the
big steamer backed away from her
berth. Col George Cocktails, builder
Of the canal and governor of the zone,
was on the bridge beside Captain
Sukeforth of the steamer, together
with Capt. Hugh Rodman, U. S. ~,
superintendent of transportation, who
has overseen the plans for putting the
first ship through.
Other distinguished guests included
President Porras of the republic OF
Panama and his staff.
The Panama National band and the
regimental band Of the Tenth United
States infantry played The Star
Spangled Banner" as the ship pulled
away, but the music was almost
drowned by the whistles of the steam
ers in the harbor.
