HOUSEHOLD CARES
KEEP MEN FROM JAIL

Salem, Ore, March 24.-Household
cares keep men out of Jail, in the opin-

MEANS INCREASE IN
POSTAL EFFICIENCY
Forthcoming order Will Not
Affect Postmasters Dur
ing Their Present 7 Term,
but Will Apply to Ap-
pointments at the End of
Their Terms. r,g,
BY MILES PoINoExTER.

u. s. Senator from Washington.
Washington, March 24.-The action
of the president in adopting the merit
system min the appointment of first,
second and third class postmasters and
taking this patronage" opt of politics,
will save the government, at con-
servative estimate, twelve million dol
lars year and will increase the eff
ciency of the postal service. This sys-
tenn becomes effective a week from
Monday.
There are SGT first class offices; p
213 second class; 7,437 third class and
45.393 four class offices. The fougth-
class offices were placed in the classi-
fled civil service several years ago by
President Taft.
The application of the principle how
ever, was so perverted that it did not
brine the desired result. Three names
were certified on list of eligible APP
plicants. In nearly all cases there was
at least one Democrat on the list and i'll
nearly all cases this Democrat was APP
pointed. 1t only brought the system
into ridicule because it was a sham AMI
q hypocritical application of it.
EAII r NOT WITH PRINCIPLE.
This did the merit system harm be-
cause some who took only a superficial
view of the matter blamed the principle
itself for the result. whereas the real
fauIt was the failure to apply in truth
and IN fact the merit principle, The
criticism really was against the old
spoils system masouerading in the
g,,ise ~ the merit system.
So far as announced, the forthcom-
ting order will not affect incumbent post
masters during their present term, but
will applv to appointments or reap
continents at the end of that term. In
stead of a perversion of the principle
by giving the appointment to the
Democrat on the list of three, the ap-

Henry z. Johnson, in Ad-
dress to Students at Uni
versity of Idaho, Makes
Reference to the Present
Day Conditions.
COURSE OF LECTURES
ON SUPREME COURT
Important Cases Decided by
the Idaho Tribunal From
IN the Time of Organization
of Territory to the Pres
emit.

In his scholarly address on James
Russell Lowell before the student as
sembly of the University at Moscow
last week, Henry q. Johnson of this
city, after commenting on the fact that
Lowell never confused party with
country, nor partisanship with patriot-
ism, took occasion to refer to present
day conditions which the students re-
ceived with great enthusiasm. Mr..
Johnson said And right here let me
digress long enough to say that n
these troublous days, we, like Lowell
1 hope, are none of us partisans, but all
of us are Americans. We all admire
courage, strength of purpose and fidel-
ity to duty. Let the pole-star Of our
loyalty today be to the great presi-
dent, Who is entrusted with the helm II
state. We may feel sure that amidst
the thunders and lightnings Of what
appears to be an impending storm, he
will be guided by Seneca's Pilot who,
as the waters were about to engulf him
said. o, Neptune, you may save me
If you will; you may sink me If you
will; but whatever happens, 1 shall
keep my rudder true"
NOTABLE COURT DECISIONS.
Mr.. Johnson's address on Lowell was
incidental to a course of lectures ne
was giving to the law students on the
history of the supreme court of Idaho
from the organization of the territory
to the present day, with reference to
the notable decisions Of the court, and
their authority as presidents in other
jurisdictions. Some Of the cases TO
which Mr.. Johnson called attention,
and which he claimed were of first
impression" in this country, were the
famous "Test Oath" cases of terri
torial days, which were affirmed by
the supreme court Of the United
States; also, the cases wherein the
presiding officers of the legislative as
sembly of the territory sought 20
change the journals of the legislature
after 1t had adjourned, and which
cases were prolific Of SO much litigd-
ton in the new state; these cases were
likewise affirmed on appeal to the
! supreme court of the United States.
Some of the more recent cases of the
court referred to we're the habeas
corpus cases growing out of the Sho-
shone county riots; the two mile
limit" cases, and other cases of like
nature, for which no exact parallel
could be found among the decisions.
| Interesting statistics were given oy
Mr.. Johnson touching the cases on APP
peal to the supreme court OF. the Unit
ed States. OF the cases appealed to
the supreme court from the district

record of reversals is not below the
