WASHINGTON, July 30 The great ambition of his life was real ized when William Howard Taft was made chief justice of the supreme court of the United States. The form CT president, according to his close friends, is more pleased with the new post of great dignity which he now occupies than he was when the greatest office in the gift of the American. people-the presidency was his.
 MT. Taft is the tenth chief justice of the highest tribunal of the land. Since the court was created in 17S9 the successive presiding heads have been John Jay of New York, John Rutledge of South Carolina, Oliver Ellsworth of Connecticut, John Mar shall of Virginia, Roger P. Fancy of Maryland, Salmon F. Chase of Ohio. Morrison R. Waite of Ohio. Melville w. Fuller of Illinois and Edward Douglas White of Louisiana who died recently.
 It is a curious fact that the man who was called the father of the su- preme court later became chief jus tice-Senator Ellsworth. He was chairman of the committee of the senate which drafted the measure creating the court and the entire
 
 States. The bill was approved by George Washington, then President almost as soon as it was presented to him, and he sent to the senate the names of the first justices, which were confirmed without opposition The first court consisted of Chief Justice John Jay and Associate Jus tices John Rutledge of South Caro- lima, James Wilson of Pennsylvania William Cushing of Massachusetts Robert H. Harrison of Maryland and John Blair of Virginia.

Inc Dairy Rusiness

A comparison of the financial condition of dairy farmers and dairy communities with cotton farmers and cotton communities in Mississippi brings the fact while 80 per of the cotton farm CTS owe the banks money and asking for exten- sons their notes there almost instances of notes held against dairy farmers The merchants in towns surrounded by the best dairy communities port their business throughout last fall and winter remarkably good.
 This statement is made on the authority of the extension dairy husbandman who for nearly 10 years has engaged in the movement carried by the United States Department of Agriculture and the State Arcultural College of Mississippi to build up dairying in that state and furnish the farmers with source of income after the boil weevil had re- duced the production of the South's great staple.
 To farmers these facts should lend encourage ment to break away from the one-crop system the specialist says: to the bankers and business men they should be convincing proof that greater farm prosperity attained by more permanent and structive type farming. benefits the entire munity. The growth of the dairy industry through out the South is limited in very large degree by the willingness and ability of bankers and other moneyed interests finance the cotton past in buying cows and making the necessary changes in order to branch out in line.
 The experience of the business people in a west ern Pennsylvania town, which became interested in promoting dairying and improved agriculture gen. erally should be to many or the south ern bankers who have not been converted diversi- fled farming. In 1915 creamery organized in this Pennsylvania town, and one of the two banks in the place became very active in promoting dairying and financing industry It took the initiative in bringing in cows sell to the farmers cost, and inconvenienced itself in many ways to accommodate the farmers.
 In five years there was built up a large mem bership in various dairying associations; 4s bers in the cow-testng associations, 96 in bull ciatons Is7 breeds. 69S in creamery patrons associations.

When he was only 29 he was ap pointed to the superior court bench of Ohio by Governor Foraker. and the next year was elected to this office by substantial majority. President Harrison made Taft solicitor general of the United States in 1890. and when the federal court of appeals was created. Taft was named as one of its members. In 1900 President Mckinley appointed Taft chairman of the Philippine commission, and later he became first governor of the islands. President Roosevelt made Taft his secretary of war.

 But 1t is settled that the revenue from income and excess profits taxes must be greatly lowered. Congress has recognized that necessity Is mud urgent than readjustment of the tariff So these taxes must be cut down and the nuisance that soda water. tickets. etc. must eliminated.
 Their places however. must be taken by taxes from other source. from which yield revenue without disturbance of business. Attention then is turning again to the inheritance which 1t is believed should be very sharply in creased and could be increased without barrassment though not without unpleasantness to those to whom great fortunes descend. It is true that such tax would tend toward a laveng pro- but 1t would place upon those who are better able pay a greater share of the burden.

prominent in the colonies and the new nation as statesmen and revolu- tionary leaders. Jay had been one of the framers of the constitution, had been minister to Spain, president to the congress and chief justice for the state of New York, and had nego- tiated the peace treaty of 17S2-S3. Washington, who appointed the first three chief justices, gave Jay his choice of posts under the federal government, and the supreme court was the choice. His official life in that post was brief, as was that of the two succeeding justices.
 After negotiating the peace treaty with England and upon his return here, having resigned as chief justice, was elected governor of New York. Jay, despite his accomplishments ana education, was a religious bigot, and sought to exclude Roman Catholics from American citizenship. but failed
 A Six Months Tenure
 John Rutledge, the next chief jus tice. was appointed in 1795 when Jay resigned, but held office only six months, the senate having rejected the nomination because of his oppo- sition to the Jay treaty, and because of alleged mental infirmity resulting from exposure in the swamps oi South Carolina during the Revolu- tion. He was a delegate to the first | congress, held in New York. and ir 1774 was sent to the continental con- l gross. He was the first governor ot | South Carolina.

He held ou strongly and successfully for main
 taining the sovereignty of the stat, l governments. As youth he started
 to study theology, but changed to thu | law and soon attained success.
 John Marshall. the next chief jus tice. was appointed by John Adams
 month before the inauguration O l Thomas Jefferson. and served iron 1901 until 1895. Marshall was a sol dier during the Revolution, fighting

at Brandywine, Germantown, Iron Hill, Monmouth and Stony Point, and was with Washington's troops during the terrible winter at Valley Forge. Marshal was responsible for the de- cision that the supreme court is the judge of the laws of the land, and that laws in conflict with the consti- tUtion shall not stand.
 Marshall was the last of the revo- lutionary heroes and statesmen to be appointed as chief justice. Roger B. Fancy, who was appointed to succeed Marshall, was sarcely of age at the time of Washington's death. His ap pointment was made by President Jackson. and he served from 1886 until 1861. The senate once refused to confirm Fancy as secretary of the treasury. the first time a nomination | to a cabinet post was turned down. Fancy married a sister of Francis l Scott Key, author of the national an- | them. He had the strictest regard | for official integrity. and there is a story that he refused to accept a box | of cigars from one of the officials in
 the treasury department while he was at its head.
