SMITH AND SCHALLER.

Attorney General Smith has filed as
candidate for reelection on the re-
publican ticket. He ought not have
any opposition, for he has been good
and faithful official. He and his eff
cient corps Of assistants have attend
ed to the duties Of his highly import
ant office in a manner entirely Salts
factory to the people of the state. No
interest of the state has been neglect
ed or overlooked during General
Smiths administration of the office of
attorney general, and, personally, he
is most courteous and accommodate
ing gentleman. He richly merits the
unanimous Endorsement of his party,
and of all parties for. that matter.
General Smith had been importuned
by many Of his friends to become a
candidate to succeed Justice Albert
Schaller on the supreme bench. But,
like the high-minded gentleman that
he is, he refused to permit the use of
his name for that position-on ac-
count of his friendship for Justice
Schaller and for the further reason
that he did not wish to enter into a
partisan contest for a place on the
supreme bench.
Justice Albert Schaller was appoint
ed to the supreme bench by the late
Governor Hammond to fill the vacancy
caused by the death of Justice P. E..
Brown. Justice Schaller has made
good and he ought 70 succeed him.
self.
The Union is not and never has been
hide-bound partisan newspaper. We
do not believe that politics should en-
ter into the selection of judges of our
supreme or district courts. Here in
the Seventh Judicial district, by gen.
eral consent, Judge Nye will have no
opposition for reelection to the dis
trict bench. His eminent fitness is
recognized by men of all political par
ties. We hope the custom that has
obtained for so many years in the
Seventh district, and which has given
us the services of exceptionally able
jurists, will be extended to include
justices Of the supreme court this
year.

lions, nationality or political affilia-

The validity of the recently enacted
ordinance, providing that the pool and
billiard rooms shall be closed on Sun
days in the city of Thief River Falls,
will be tested in the courts. A re-
straining order, preventing the city
authorities from carrying out the pro-
visions of the ordinance, has been
asked for, on the grounds that these
were an unwarranted interference
with the conduct of this line of bust
ness and an unreasonable control over
the actions of the proprietors. Some
people cannot understand why it is
right to do a thing one day, and
wrong to do it on another day.

MAGNIFICENT FREE
LIBRARY ASSURED
Wilmington Institution Re-
ceives Trust Fund

The announcement of a build
ing site for the Wilmington In
stitute Free Library, through the
munificence of an unknown friend
making a handsome new library
building possible, is appreciated
throughout Delaware. The gener-
Gus provision for the rural friends
by the library management, has
developed a feeling of interest
and ownership in the library,
which extends to all parts of Del
aware.
Although the negotiations have
not yet been closed, there is every
i n d i ii n that a magnificent
building will be erected in the
near future. One of the chief OBJ
stacles to the development of a
greater library which has been
the goal Of the management for
years, has been the acquisition of
a proper building site. This diff
Guilty has been solved by an un-
known friend of the institution
who offers trust fund of $3.50,
900, the interest from which will
be set aside to pay the ground
rent for the next two hundred
years. This policy it is believed
will be adopted rather than an
out and out purchase since the
site desired at Market and Tenth
street-a part of the old buryine
grou d of the Presbyterian
Church-was devised originally
for church purposes, and there is
legal difficulty in the selling OF
the property.
The contemplated library will
be built of marble, with majestic
columns, of style of architecture
in harmony with the new City
County building. 1t will be TIVE
stories in height and cost $500
900. An impression is abroat
that the donor of the money t.
guarantee the ground rental i

stinted in giving money to Della

Plan To Establish
Pension Fund

The Episcopal church has
adopted as it's supreme task dur
ing 1916 the establishment of pen
sion system for retired clergy in
all parts of the United States.
This is considered the largest
single business enterprise in the
history of the church. The sys-
tenn about to be adopted has been
examined and pronounced mod
ern and sound by men noted for
their business efficiency. The plan
is a contributory system whereby
upon the payment by the parish
each year of an additional seven
per cent, speaking roughly, of the
minister's salary, he will receive
on retiring at 68, pension equal
to one-half his average salary
during active service. At death
his widow and minor children will
abled in active service pension
follows. In order to take care of
those who should be pensioned
Immediately and to give the con-
tributory plan time to move perm
anently on it's own wheels, an in
itial sum of S5,OOO,OOO is to be
raised.
TO direct the task of obtaining
this reserve fund Bishop Law,
renee of Massachusetts,, will dur.
ing the year, suspend active worl
in his own diocese and devote
himself wholly to the enterprise
Local committees will be ap
pointed throughout the United
