''In view of the opinion expressed re-
Gently in the public press and else
where to the effect that no member of
the Supreme Court of the United States
should be candidate for or accept the
nomination of political party for the
presidency, it may he well TO recall
the fact that Mr.. Justice Mclean of
that court was an avowed candidate
tor the nomination by the republican
national convention that met in Phila-
delphla in June, 1856. Mr.. Justice Nc
Lean had been a cabinet officer under
Monroe and John Quincy Adams and
was appointed to the Supreme bench
by Jackson where he served for thirty
one years with great credit. for he was
man of fine abilities and spotless in
teSrity- He saw reason why he
should not ask the nomination or ac-
cept it. He wrote letter May 13 to
Lewis Cass, and three weeks later he
wrote to Chief Justice Hornblower of
New Jersey for the purpose of putting
himself in true light before the re-
publican party and the country on the
slavery question. These letters were

To Cross Rough Seas.

The object on the route from New
| Bedford to Nantucket is to use the
aeroplane between the mainland and
the outlying islands, across stormy
and treacherous reaches of water. In
Alas ska it is proposed to surmount diff
culties of transportation interposed by
mountain ranges and the seventies of
the northern winters. If successful in
these instances, the opportunities for
further use and adaptation of aviation
to the mail service are obviously un-
limited.
Over the Massachusetts route the
prevalence of fog at certain seasons
and of high wind velocities at other
periods present apparently serious OBJ
stacles. In Alaska high winds pre-
vail at times: aerial mail carriers would
be compelled to face extremely low
temperatures in winter.
1t appears. however, that the wind
and cold are not feared by the eX-
perienced aeronaut of this day Ex
tremely dense fog. it. is understood,
may necessitate some delay of service.
Apparently, though. the difficult ques-
ton is that of providing planes in ade-
Guate number and equipped to carry
the load required

Maximum Rates Prescribed.

over the New Bedford Nantucket and
the Valdez fairbanks routes the maxi
mum load is placed at 5000 pounds.
Upon the other Alaskan routes the
maximum is from 1000 to 900 pounds,
with alternate proposals involving
loads ranging from 1000 to 500 pounds.
For the lower weights the question
of load apparently does not present dif-
ficulty. For the three-thousand-p pound
limit it is still a question whether the
American manufacturer will offer to
supply machines with this carrying
capacity From abroad reports midi
cate that war planes are in use that
are ca pabl of carrying, in addition to
fuel and aviator. an even larger load
than 5000 pounds.

Endorsed by Lincoln.

There were then, as there are now.
good men believing that no Judge
should be A candidate for a politica
nominate or political office. Abraham
Lincoln. then on the threshold of his
great career, did not take that view,
and he wrote f. B. Washburne, urging
him and his republican associates in
Congress to go to the convention and
use their eXertions and influence in
favor of Mr.. Justice Mclean. On the
informal ballot taken before the nomi-
nation was actually made, Gen. Ere
Mclean 1876 votes and Mr.. Lincoln 10
votes. though Mr. Lincoln was not a
candidate and was known to have adj
vocated the nomination of Mr.. Justice
Mclean.
1T was agreed upon all sides that in
point of character. ability and thorough
familiarity with public affairs Mr. Jus
tee Mclean was far better qualified
for the presidential office then was
Gen Fremont. but the latter appealed
strongly to the Imagination of the dele
gates and the country generally and h
was nominated for no other reason.
Should Not Be Barred"
AT present no occupant of a Judi
cal position is candidate for the
presidential nomination, but it seems
probable that one may be nominated.
To argue that it would be his duty to
refuse to accept the nomination is
equivalent to arguing that one who
taxes ms seat on the bench is there
after prohibited from responding to the
call of his countrymen, no matter what
they think the exigency may be- In a
republic there should be no man or
class of men in public station who can
NOT be ca lied to the highest station if

PIG TROUGH IS 4 NECESSITY
For Large Animals V-Shaped Device
Will Be Found Durable and Can.
~cnient-tioH II 10 Made.

The pig trough Is very necessary
equipment. For large hogs a very
durable and economical trough is 4
V-shapcd one which can be made OF
pieces 2 by 10 and 2 by 8, but for the
younger pigs smaller pieces should be
used. Care should be taken in max
ing them. If they are too high the
pigs cannot feed conveniently. If too
low, the pigs will get into the trough
in order to get the feed.
The trough set in fence, parallel
to it, is very satisfactory arrange
ment. A swinging panel can be hung
above the trough. A latch slipping
crosswise at the center Of the panel
makes it possible to swing it in and
fasten it. thereby shutting out the pigs
until oil the feed is put into the
trough.
Tie pig trough should be kept clean.
A thorough scrnbbing occasionally will
be an advantage to the animals health.
If the trough is set on cement feed
ing floor there will be less dirt md
filth.
