of education, declared that he held
with an intensity of conviction
which was difficult to express that

sOur courts will not save US or
make our legacy secure. The Ameri-
can Prison Association committee
on criminal procedure declares that
10000 homicides are committed in
this country every year-more than

nations, exclusive of Russia. Seven
sears ago Judge Amidon stated that

man been snatched from the custody
Of the law and sacrificed TO mob
Violence. Contrast this statement
with the fact that in the United

sentiment that must exist that would

shielded a gentleman of some no.

lily although we are forced to admit
that his face wore something OF o

looked as though it had had previous

prompted to smile at the reappear
ance of the old fricr1 which is rot

its Wearer during the course of a

A group of senators have come to

which the world was prepared for

Book is given to the development

The highest form Of creation is
man and to man must be given the

(From The American CITIZEN
America has developed her natur-

roads, and built her large industrial
plants largely by the use OF foreign
labor We would probably be at least
fifty years behind our present devel-

A FEDERAL JUDGE.

a FEDE RhL JULIE.
To the ordinary citizen probably
the appointment Of federal Judge
on Saturday last for the Northern
District OF West Virginia does not
mean so much; but. as a matter
OF fact, the appointment came Just
in time to permit Of the orderly
functioning Of the federal judicial
machinery at the term which is
scheduled to open here tomorrow
morning. Circumstances were such
that no substitute judge could be
found in the emergency, and the
court faced the prospect OF adjourn
ing a heavy schedule without any
action, which would only mean the
crowding Of terms at another place.
While there is to be no grand jur#
at the term here. the number Of
cases to be heard is a large one,
and the court will be in session
some days; prisoners are coming
here and about eighty new cases
are to be heard. Sudden abandon,
ment of all these plans would have
meant endless confusion. The APP
nointment however. opens the way
for the resumption Of normal pro
~adure, which is indeed very for
fupate thing
