After protests against the confirmation Of An
drew Miller, OF Bismarck, for the position of district
judge for the federal district of North Dakota had
been heard and disregarded, the subcommittee of
the senate judiciary committee recommended Mr..
Millers confirmation, and this action was approved
by the full committee and then by the senate itself.
Another judicial appointment Of interest in the
was that of Senator Kenyon, of Iowa,
whose selection for a federal ~judgeship was general
ly recognized as entirely fitting because Of the high
character OF the man and professional equipment.
Earth trenors early in the week, recorded at
all the stations in this country, were believed to in
dica:e an earthquake OF unusual violence somewhere
west or south of the United States. The vibrations
now appear to have been caused by a moment
along the California fault which passes in the
vicinity OF San Francisco. Although the trembiings
were quite perceptible in California, no damage is
reported. The fault. or crack, is reported to have
been extended both north and south for some dis
lance.
The cause OF the collapse OF the roof OF the

BOY SCOUTS,

Committees appointed for that purpose are col
lect,ng subscriptions for the funds needed for the
OF the Boy Scout work in Grand Forks
during the coming season. The sum required is not
large, being intended merely to provide for the skill
and experience needed in the work of general super
vision and direction.
In connection with the work of the Boy Scouts
it is scarcely necessary to do more than mention it
IN order to be sure OF a ready response to a call for
whatever funds are necessary to insure the nainten-
ance IN the city OF a strong working organization.
The Boy Scout idea IS based on recognition Of the
boys demand Tor adventure, his passion for organi-
eaton and his need for intelligent and sympathetic
direction. The organization is not military in its ma
t,,Ie and is not even remotely related to the spirit
of warfare In its drill and mia work it provides
an outlet for the spirit which exists in every boy,
and which must find expression m some way. Lack
ing some other objective it has often found. express
sion in the activities Of the alley gang where lessons
in crime rather than in good citizenship have been
learned In actual operation the organization helps
to build up the boys body, teaches him self-reliance
and resourcefulness develops his powers of endur-
ance and aids him to an appreciation of his obliga-
tons as a member of his community.
In the Boys camp at Union Lake, created by
the local Rotary club, there has been provided a
place where during the summer months the Scouts
may enjoy a delightful outing under wholesome sur
roundings- The camp was a decided success last
season, and the fact that it is there to be used each
year by and for the boys, viii stimulate interest all
through the season in the local work. The condi-
tons of our modern life demand that there be some
|snch outlet for the boys energies and some such
means for directing them. The work is a valuable
public service and it merits hearty public support.

By Associated Press 10 Every Evening.
Washington. Nov. 17.-Increaslng
imports under the new tariff law are
To be expected in the view OF Secre-
tary Mellon. as expressed yesterday at
the treasury.
Mr.. Mellon believes that the volume
of imports into the country Is gov
erned mainly by the condition of busl-
ness within the country. which he is
said to feel is steadily on the upward
trend.
On great majority OF articles of
import Mr.. Mellon is said to see no ap-
preciable effect by the new duties
upon the volume of incoming com
modities. Treasury officials today in
stanced British cloths used for suit
ings as an example. contendlng that
those who bought suits of such ma
terials did so regardless of price. On
other commodities in general use, the
officials declared. the increased duties
are so diffused to have little practical
effects in the reduction OF importa-
| tons.

A. Sutton.
Prof. Sutton. now superintendent
of the Atlanta public schools. was
born on farm and studied At tho lit
tie red schoolhouee. He learned
geography from a round. colored globe
and he saw life chiefly In the guise
OF home and school room. He be-
lieves education should offer wider
glimpses of the world, and conceived
the plan of school that stayed In
no one spot, but went to all parts of
the globe.
He reduced his plan to practical de-
tails, and received assurance of the
money necessary from Mr.. Gambler
and other rich Atlanta men, including
Gator Woolford, Lindsey Hopkins
Harold Hirsch and Harry p. Her
nance.
The Logan is on it's way from Sar
Francisco to New York. The trans.
poet probably will be renamed wher
it takes up it's school duties. AS ex.
ecutive head of the floating school
Prif. Sutton will receive a salary o.
$50 year.
From twenty to nifty places hav,
been reserved on the transport foI
the next five years by preparatory
schools so far. Other schools will be
added quickly TO this list.
The floating school will be in ses
sion for nine months in the year, viii
| be as strict in it's studies as the mos
land-bound institution. and will hav,
aboard a competent body of instruct
ors. The floating school will be In M
sense a vacation tour, but on tht
other hand will be the first effort a

than at the usual preparatory school.
Selection OF students will be made
from those who seem particularly
fitted for instruction that includes
travel around the world. In addition
to voyegers aboard the transport. pu-
pills will be offered the advantage of
six-weeks' tours OF the United States
