The Supreme Court.

Before President Wilson leaves the White
House in 1921 it appears reasonably certain that
seven members of the Supreme Court will owe
their appointments to him.
Associate Justices McReynolds Brandeis and
Clarke sit this great tribunal as appointees
of the present Executive In his single term,
former President Taft appointed four Justices and
named the Chief Justice.
Three Justices of the Supreme Court already
have passed the age at which the law entities them
to the honor of retirement. They are Mr.. Chief
Justice White, who was born in 1s4s; Mr.. Justice
McKenna, who was born in I843, and Mr.. Justice
Holmes who was born in I841. Mr.. Justice Day
is in poor health and hardly will remain through
the second Wilson administration
President Wilson, in his appointments, has held
closer to the practice of earlier days of appointing
younger men to the Supreme Bench which, from
almost all standpoints, is desirable.
The Supreme Bench is the pinnacle for nearly
every attorney in the United States. One lawyer
of established reputation and competence recently
viewing it in session, declared that he would sacr-
fee twenty-five of the best years in his life for the
honor of an appointment. And most members of
the legal profession take the same point of view.
With these conditions, 1t seems possible and
expedient to select men of established reputation
for integrity, ability and supreme knowledge of
the law, who have not reached the age where their
tenure of office will be limited. Men are ripened
in experience and their ability has been tried test
ed and determined even for so distinguished hon.
ors as service on the Supreme Bench before they
reach the half century mark
1t seems certain that the Sixty-6fth Congress
will pass statute that will prevent members of
the court from aspiring to the Presidency With
the possibility of further advancement denied and
a lifework dedicated to promugating justice from
the bench of the greatest judicial body it would
seem feasible to appoint men who can give extend
ed service to the country and with their greater
years of duty and broader experience increase
their value to the nation.

The Passing of Sothern.

The farewell appearance of E. H. Sothern is
announced as the attraction at the Belasco The
ater this week and very fitting and typical quail
fcation of the famous actors exit is the statement
that his final tour is being made for charity. The
British Red Cross is to benefit from his last stage
work
The passing of Mr.. Sothern from the American
stage cannot be treated incident. 1t marks
an epoch of theatrical history-an unfortunate
epoch whose only alienation is the sterling record
which closes with his departure.
Mr. Sothern owes much to the stage and he has
given much. He has been almost superhuman in
his efforts to uplift it and improve it in the eyes
of artists as well as the public.
Always reaching out toward higher levels he
left comedy when he found himself becoming cele-
brated only as comedian. He essayed romantic
roles and when he had won recognition as Amer
ica's foremost romantic exponent he deserted that
fertile field for ineursions into Shakespearian
tragedy.
He has made happy selection in his farewell
vehicle, eff Were King" for it was in that play
more than any other which caused him to be
recognized as the most popular actor in America
The circumstances under which this final tour is
being made is most ably expressed in Sothern's
own words, ~mercy knows no enemy"
The theater and the public both will miss Mr..
Sothern. They do not know how much as yet, but
the misfortune is tempered to considerable extent
by the benefit they have derived through having
been under the influence of his art and person

Mayor Curley has asked President Wilson to
convene Congress at once and submit recon-
mendation that an embargo be placed on food
shipments to reduce the cost of living. He said
that wages would have to increase per cent to
keep pace with the increased cost of foodstuffs,
and that export shipments of flour and other
necessities selling at retail in Europe cheaper
than in the United States The facts may not call
for such drastic action the mayor of Boston
proposes, but if prices abroad as stated there
must be speculative, combinations and contractual
obligations that the government can reach to
remedy such conditions

The visits which Thomas Mott Osborne, for
mer warden of Sing Sing will make to every State
in the behalf of prison reform will be productive
of good results. While nominally under the aus
pices of the National Committee on Prisons it will
be largely Mr.. Osborne's own record as success
impetus to the plans for prison reform Already
he has succeeded in impressing upon people the
fact that person who has served term in prison
is of far more vaue reconstructed citizen, than
he is if left with the mark of the prison upon him.

"In all probability" says a current statement
OF the indefatigable Navy League, 1--WE could bring

the limit SO far as we can realize it. in all types
of naval craft and equipment. America has the men
of genius, vision and skill, as we'll the wealth,
to carry such a policy into execution, and the
ultimate cost would be no more than that of the
present policy of following the lead of rival ma
tons. The degree of vision" represented by this
school of thought is, perhaps, not excessive Quite

No good cause that needs money ever wants for
the services of men who willing to go out and
world for there is more thankless job none that
timid soul will run from quicker, than the job
of asking for money. The man who comes into
your office on that errand, no matter how worthy
the purpose for which the contribution is sought
knows just how popular he is with you. He knows
you don't mean it when you say you are glad to
him. He knows you wish the elevator had
dropped with him. You dislike him the more be-
cause you know he is right when he says you ought
to give. He is better man than you because he
had to come and tell you your duty. If you had
grabbed him before he had even had time to put
your name on his list of tightwads and said, Here
slap me down for a contribution and here's the
money" That's what you ought to have done and
you know it.-Kansas City Star
