Judge Phil ID. Suing Denies
Motion to Qudsh Indictment;

Judge Phil d. Swing yesterday de-
MED motion by counsel for the de-
PENDANTS, C. E. Hill and E. w. Hill to
quash the indictments against them
charging soliciting and receiving
bribes.
Following this demurrers entered by
Attorney 0. V. Wilson were taken

he would give his decision next We'd
Inesday morning at 9:45.
District Attorney E. r. Simon and
Deputy C. z. Scott acted for the state.
Grounds given as a reason for
quashing the indictments for bribery
were that the specific date in January
on which $25 was alleged to have been
paid by Joey for G. Fassio, also of
$50, nor the date in December when
S100 was alleged to have been paid
| by Joe Wise, was not given in the in
dictment. The motion in the perjury
case against E. w. Hill contended that
it had not been found, endorsed and
presented as prescribed in the penal
code of the state, and that the fore
imam of the grand jury, before which
the perjury is alleged to have taken
place, had no authority to administer
oath to the defendant, the said grand
jury being an illegal body.

"a watch is a combination Of
wheels within wheels. So is a
business. To say that the indis-
pensable handspring Of the watch
is more important than the in
dispensable balance wheel would
be obviously absurd. Or that
strong financial connection is the
ONE dominant factor in business
development. Whether such
connection is the balance wheel
or the handspring of business is
immaterial. But that the busi-

Was Mr.. Lane Referring to President
Wilson,

In his commencement day address at
Harvard. the former secretary Of the
interior. Franklin X. Lane, said some
sharp things. which in the light of his
association with the president of the
United States were regarded as highly
significant. His hearers accepted his
illusions as referring to Mr.. Wilson,
and as indicating his own Judgment Of
the president in important respects and
after a considerable lapse of time from
the termination of his membership in
the executives official family.
For example, Mr.. Lane said; ut
must be realized that there is no way
by which YOU can run up into the
high air a line or wire and gather an
epigram which will solve all national
problems"
Again: I'VE want a ststesmanship
Of which we have not had a super
abundance. We want to realize, if
possible. that democracy is not govern
ment bv divine revelation. Demoe-
racv is government by hard work, hard
knocks and hard thinking. II is gov
eminent by planning, government by
thinking ahead; craftsmanship is en-
gineeriag applied to the affairs Of all
the people This government of hard
work and hard thinking must be shot
through with an ennobling trust in
one another"
And finally. I'VE need little more
non-dogmatic craftsmanship
