here was much activity among

aw nothing of submarines but
alter learned that one or twol
'ubs were sighted ahead of us,
lad submerged while we passed,
one of them between us and the
next ship and that depth charges
were fired over where they ap-
peared behind us. The London
Times said we got one of them
and probably crippled the other, |
but we never saw them.
Indeed those busy little de-
stroyers flying our own flag were
a great comfort to us. During
the most intense part Of the
voyage, the British dirigibles
flew all about our convoy for
whole day, ever watchful for
subs and ready to fix them with
depth charges. They too were
a JOY to us. France is beautiful
and smiling. No wonder the
French love their country and
no wonder visitors want to fight
for it. Today (Sunday) 1 rode
over to hill covered with fir
trees with a French officer and
looked for miles over a beautiful
rolling country, village about
every two kilometers, red roses
clustered about church spire,
all very much alike but each one
interesting. One could hear the
bells from perhaps four of the
villages at once. The fields

SATURDAY EVENING LETTER
By Justice j. E. Robinson

November Is, 191S.-As confession
may be good for the soul OF the court.
l do confess that we have now on
the court calendar 144 appeals await
ing arguments and 81 cases long
since argued and submitted-some Of
them over a year ago. This shows we
need some better timber, better man.
agement and better CO urt rules.
Glad am that Harry Bronson has
been elected judge of the supreme
court to hold office "for six years
from the first Monday in December
Bronson has faithfully promised to
be at his chambers or in the court
rooms of the Capitol and at work on
each business. day from nine a. m. to
5 p. M, the same as the writer. He
promises to, concur In just and right
eous decisions andSto remember that
the law is made 4otsman, and not man
for the law--to rem ember that the
purpose Of the MW-is to protect life,
liberty and property, and to assure
general prosperity and happiness.
do promise and VOW several things in
his name: That, as he renounces the
Devil and all his works, the pomps
and vanities of this wicked world, so
shall he ,renounce any desire fpr a
second term in office. From the time
of Charles the First of England un
til this day the mania for office hold
! ing has been a curse to the judges. 1t
! has caused them to make political
time serving decisions which are mon
uments of the baneful desire to hold
onto and retain office. Hence the law
reports abound with decisions which
are unjust, narrow and political. And
such nefarious decisions are urged as
precedents to be followed, and wheth
er right or wrong, the judge is al
ways disposed to follow anything in
the form of precedent, and so one
erroneous decision is made an excuse
for another. and error is made the
foundation of error. The blind leads
the blind and they. both fallinto
ditch. We hope that Mr.. Bronson

may turn new leaf and that he may

may turn a new leaf and that he may
never feel any temptation to make pO-
litical or office seeking decisions.
During the past two years our court
has been very much divided, but
there has always been a majority or
a minority against any unjust decision
or any form of robbery, extortion or
oppression. We have steadfastly re-
fused to deny justice by dismissing or
deciding appeals on merely technical
grounds. And to some extent we have
refused to sustain the jurisdiction OF
any court to order the destruction Of
property. By majority vote, we
have even refused to sanction the
ruthless killing of good work horses.
We have held, in accordance with the
constitution, that every man for any
injury done him in his lands, goods,
person or reputation, has. a remedy
by due process of law. He has a
remedy by ansappeal to the courts
and he is not concluded by an adverse
decision of any other board or body
of men. ....' 'i-:'
Yet it must be confessed that by
majority vote, we have made several
narrow and unjust decisions. We have
/ not fairly attempted to administer JUS
| tice without delay, in accordance with
our oath and the mandate of the con-
stitutton. Indeed, we have not yet
comm enced the work of judicial re-
form. AS rule, our judges follow
the old custom of doing their work or
leaving it undone. They come, and
go as they. please and show no re-
gard for time. During about one
third Of the business days they are
absent from their chambers and from
the capitol. During the past two
months our Chief Justice has not been
at the capitol more than four or five
days. And our Justice Grace-his
presence at court is an occasion fol
! rejoicing. Our Justice Birdzell has
been giving a large part of his time
to side job, as a member OF the
draft exemption board. Now he real
