RAY STANNARD BAKER CON-
SIDERS BRANDEIS INQUIRY
AS AN 0LD-FASH|ONED
HERESY TRIAL.

In the Springfield (Mass.) Repub-
lican, in the course Of detailed analy-
sis of the hearing regarding Mr.. Bran
deis' fitness for appointment to the SUI
preme court, Ray Stannard Baker
writes:

selves concerning the conduct proper
to lawyer and prospective Judge like
| Mr.. Brandeis. Two widely different,
and as it seems to the layman, contra

them. Indeed, the inquiry at Wash

observer like an old-fashioned heresy

putting doctrinal points and with MIR.

"A few of the high priests Of the
legal profession have appeared to op-
pose Mr. Brandeis; others. like the
faculty of the Harvard law school, who
know him well, have appeared to sup
port and commend him. Are these
professors heretical too?"
The fve-per-cent rate case is more
or less typical of the charges brought
against Mr.. Branceis and raises the
question sGuarely as to whether 1t is
really heresy for a lawyer to be hon:

which are presented to him? Shall
lawyer seek justice and truth, or shall
he be honest only with clients who

"A careful Investigation Of all the
cases presented at the Brandeis In

upon this vital difference in view as
to the lawyers real job; and that Mr..

ut seems to the layman that the de-
sire to arrive at the truth in every

FLAG ON COUNTY BUILDINGS.
State Law Says All Court Houses
Must Fly the Flag.

Flags should float from every pub
lie building in Iowa every secular
day, being put up in the morning and
taken down each evening. This is the
Iowa law, and it has been shameless
ly overlooked, in the opinion OF Adj
Gen. Guy M. Logan. There has been
some dispute as to whether or not
there was a law on the statute books
with reference to raising the flag
over public buildings. A man wrote
to Gen. Logan from a county seat
town, saying a new court house had
been built there and no flag staff
provided. He wanted to know what
the Iowa law was with reference to
this. Gen. Logan took the matter up
with C. A. Robbins, assistant attor-
ney general, and Attorney ROBBINS
pointed out the following law:
THAT it shall be the duty or the
custodian of all public buildings OF
the state of Iowa to raise over such
buildings the flag Of the United States
of America, upon each secular DAY
when the weather conditions are IA
vorable; and it shall be the duty OF
any board Of public officers charged
with the duty of providing for the
supplies of any public building to
provide in connection with other sup
plies for any such building of the
state of Iowa suitable flag for the
purpose herein provided.
Attorney Robbins in ruling on this
question says: In my judgment the
term public building" as made use
of in this section would include all
state buildings, all county buildings
such as court houses, and all city
buildings such as city hall, public IL
braries and the like, but would not
include any rented buildings in which
the United States postftice may be
located

One Lincoln Delegate Left.

Only one man is still living who as
a national delegate helped nominate
Abraham Lincoln for president in
1860. He is Colonel E. B. Sawyer OF
Hyde Park, VT, and l do not know
of any other person still living who
participated in an earlier national
convention of any party.
/ learn from an interview with Col.
Sawyer, who was So years old this
month, that not all the political
cranks were born the day before yes
terday. Some of the delegates in
that first Lincoln convention insisted
upon having the Decalogue made a
plank of the republican party.
"But,' said the Green mountain
patriarch, latter hearing George
William Curtis's stirring appeal they
changed their minds
Horace Greeley, the famous editor,
proved a poor prophet on that occa-
sion. He telegraphed his Tribune
the night preceding the convention
that Seward would be nominated over
Lincoln on the first ballot.
Col. Sawyer was much impressed
by the oratory of Carl SchurZ, then a
young German unknown to our coun-
try. 1--WE were visited" adds the last
survivor, who then voted for Lincoln,
"by representative in the convention
of nearly every stately such men
as Edward Everett, Governor Nc
Lean and Andrew G. Curtin"
Curtin came into his own fame lat
er as the war governor of Pennsyl-
vania. On the first ballot Vermont
cast it's solid vote for Judge Collam-
err, but on the second ballot it was
swung over to Lincoln.
"The welkin rang with applause, -
says the aged narrator, "only second
to that which followed the announce
ment of his nomination, for the men
on top of the Wigwam lost no time in
informing the $4,000 outsiders of

the many evidences he has given Of
being imbued, to the very heart, with

tribute of admiration and of conf

The Flying Side of National Defense

The aeroplane flight from this city
to Washington yesterday morning
was remarkable event for more rea-
sons than one. 1t was the first con-
tinuous fight between the two places.
1t made a record of time for this air
route of three hours and four min
utes, and that against head wind.
1t beat the best railroad time by
about two hours.
This is not all that made the flight
a matter Of peculiar interest. The
machine carried President Hawley Of
the Aero Club Of America to the
White House, where he promptly de-
livered to President Wilson a letter
ii ON the club on aviation prepared
ness. 1t also carried a special edition
Of yesterday mornings World for
distribution in official circles-being
the first delivery by air route OF a
metropolitan newspaper there.
This special edition of The World
had special contents worth word.
1t proposed an appropriation by con-
gress of $4,000 to establish fly
ing stations with machines and in
structors for developing a reserve
army and navy aviation corps Of
1000 men. To this proposal it print
ed responses from the governors OF
thirty states which were not only
generally favorable but enthusiastic.
In telegram to Canadian aviation
students, Earl Kitchener, British war
minister, has said that "one aviator is
worth an army corps An apprOpria-
ton One-tenth the cost of dread
naught would assure the provision OF
a reserve force Of 1000 aviators who
ought to be worth to the navy in
time of trouble far more than one
dreadnaught and to the army far
more than a division, and who at
other times would be powerful force
in developing the peace uses OF the
aerOplane.
On no other side is the national
defense so weak as on that OF avia-
ton, whose vital Importance is shown
by the European war. No other side
can be developed SO quickly and
cheaply as this through determined
and adequate effort.-New York

Hair Cut Slow in London.

It takes twice as long to get your
hair cut in London as it did before the
war. In itself this loss of time can
scarcely be called momentous, but as
a symptom it is significant OF a great
deal. The fact that London BARRIERS
are reducing their stats and have to
fall back upon inexpert assistance is a
single illustration Of industrial
changes that are going on everywhere

personal knowledge. The other day
