Eagle River review. [volume] (Eagle River, Wis.) 1890-1927, 1924-06-26

President Coolidge tells real estate
men he wants to see this country a
homecoming nation. That's better
than Henry Navarre's wish that every
Frenchman should have a chicken
cooking on the stove. La Poule, au
poto.
Frenchmen, seven millions of them,
own the soil of France, thanks to the
revolution.
That's what helped them to hold

That's bad news for those who eat
the crops, but may mean better prices

Frederal District Judges Carpen-
ter and Wilherson set aside President
Coolidge's pardon of Philip Grossman
in Chicago, denying the Presidents
power in civil cases and adding: To
allow such power to the Executive i
to strike death blow at the indepen-
dence of the judiciary.
That's a good saying and courageous
All Federal judges depend on the
President for appointment and pro
motion.
It's also a saying for the people to
remember in case they happen some
some day, to get rulers that repre-
them and nobody else.
At present our system ALLOWS
such power to the judiciary as to en-
danger the independence of the PEG
pie. You see it when the casting of
one single appointed Supreme Court
vote, in the majority, has power to
over-rule an elected Congress. And
when Congress is ruled by bare
majority, in court beyond the PEG.
pies control, that is not democracy.

coming session of the Legislature.
The slogan of the new party. it is
understood, will be Flower taxes"
There has been considerable dis
satisfaction among owners of prop.
erty because of the marked increase
in taxes this year, in many instances
the taxes being more than double.
This advance resulted from boost
ing the valuation, and also of ad-
vancing the tax rate from IS to IS
mills. 1t Is understood that the
promoters of the Citizens party eX-
pect that they will be able to secure
the support of enough dissatisfied
taxpayers of both parties to sweep

Down In Back Bay, near a wharf
erected by Perry. Buxton and Doane,
are permanently anchored three
vessels that were in years past
familiar figures in Portland harbor,
one of them freighter from foreign
ports. One Is the once proud Island
steamer Wandby and the last a
barge whose rotting planks give no
sign of what she once was. The
Wandby is fast being cut up for the
metal that remains in her. the
barge looks as though it might hour
ly break to pieces and nothing Is
left of the Island Belle but her hull
and part of her lower deck. In
1901 the Island Belle was first seen
in Portland 'Harbor. At that time
she was put in commission on the
Eoothbay and Bath division of the
Eastern Steamship Lines. Inc, and
she was later sold by that company
On Oct. 6, 1917, the Island Belle was
sold to Boston parties and it was
planned to install new engines in
her and to generally fit her out with
the best of everything. But the
venture was never quite successful
and for years the ship lay at Port
land idle. marine growth collecting on
her bottom and her timbers and
planking rotting. She rapidly disin-
tegrated and finally she has been
lowed around to her final resting
place. Gaping holes in her deck
show that her hull is full of water
and she is almost high and dry
Every valuable piece Of metal or
timber has been taken away from
her and she is now only a sad re-
minder of a once beautiful and use

Facts have nothing to do with your

of hugging the ancient, foolish de-
fusion.
That facts may take effect the

plowed and narrowed for the sowing
of the seed. The capacity of the
mind to repel truth often seems to
exceed its capacity for receiving in
