Famous Jurist, Ousted From
Bench In Denver, Makes
Statement.
POST is VACANT
Judge Announces Will Take
Case TO Highest Court
I'm Country.

DENVER, Jan. "a (P).-Ben B. Lind
scy, judge and founder Of the Denver
juvenile court, ousted from his posi-
tion by order of the supreme cour.
of Colorado today in the election con-
test challenging his right to the posi-
by the late Royal r.. Graham, plans
to carry his fight to the supremo
court of the United States to retain
his place, if necessary, he announcec
in a signed statement tonight.
'I am in this thing to a fight 10
the end for shall be prepared to
been deprived of my place on the
given the poorest litigant in any case
to put in a defense" said the staSe.
ment of the noted jurist.
The statement resulted from a four
to-two decision of the supreme cour.
of Colorado, which held that the
judge had been Illegally reelected
November 4, 1924, thus sustaining
the supreme court in it's findings pre-
pared by Mr.. Justice Sheafor, from
which Chief Justice Haslett p Burke
and Mr. Justice John Campbell dis
sented, remanded the case to the dis
trict court with instructions Tor the
court to enter the order of custer
against the juvenile Judge. Judge
Lindsey was given the customary Is
days in which to file an application
for a rehearing, after which, if the
application is denied, the order of
the court becomes final unless an
appeal is taken to the supreme coury
of the United States.

WOODS REFUSED
.CCNFIR N TI0N
BY u. 5. SENATE
Nomination On Interstate
Commerce, Commission
Is Rejected.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 24.-N ~ - The
senate today rejected the nomination
of Cyrus e. Woods of Pennsylvania to
be member of the interstate COM
smerce commission after a bitter three
day fight carried on behind closed
doors.
( Theavote was 40 to 28, the closing
hours of the struggle bringing a rout
in what at the outset leaders in both
camps had predicted would be a very
close contest.
Twice confirmed by the senate as an
ambassador, first to Spain and then to
Japan, Woods now joins the rather
formidable list of men whose appoint
ment to office by President Coolidge
has been found unacceptable by CO.
ordinate branch of the government.
Likewise, Pennsylvania loses, for the
time being at least, the fight it has
carried on for several years to obtain
a place for one of it's citizens on the
interstate commerce commission.
Senator Reed. republican of the Key
stone state, has been most active in
carrying forward that effort He
openly opposed the nominations of
Thomas f. Woodlock of New York and
Richard V. Taylor of Alabama as COM
missioners at the last session, serving
notice that he would oppose all such
appointments until his state was rec
ognized.
Before the Woodlocl1 and Taylor
nominations came to a vote, however, ),
Senator Reed withdrew his opposition
and President Coolidge nominated for
1c
endorsement of Secretary Mellon and
Senator Pepper, republican, Pennsyl-
vania, as well as of Senator Reed.
Before his nomination was made,
Senator Reed, in addresses in the SEN
ate repeatedly declared that Pennsyl-1
vania was entitled to place on the
commerce commission because of it's,
Importance.
These addresses were quoted byi
Woods opponents, both at the publicl
hearings before the interstate com
merce commission and during the three
days debate in the senate.
Leaders of the opposition contended
that the purpose was to have Pennsyl-
vania represented SO that soft coal
producers of the state might gain a
further advantage in lake cargo freight
rates over producers in West Vir-
ginia, Virginia, Kentucky and Tennes-
see.
Woods assured the committee that he
would not participate in the pending
lake cargo case, and said that should
this controversy arise again in thei
future, as many senators anticipate it

Ground Hog Would
Be Out OF Work If He
Moved To. Arizona

Where the winter went to or how
spring can come without waiting for
the ground hog to make his prophecy
about it are two hard questions, but
that spring is coming is indicated
in Douglas. On Monday the ther-
mometers in the business district,
varied somewhat but averaged 72
degrees in the shade. The trees in
the parks and on the lawns of the
city are budding.
Cottonwood trees especially Lave
big buds that look as if tney might
burst at any moment. Fruit trees
are showing signs Of blossoming.
Birds that usually come here 10 nest
during the summer are beginning to
arrive While there have been a
few nights with freezing temperatures
during the past two months it IS
noted that a number of trees, notably
the cottonwood have in many cases
not lost all of its 1926 crop Of leaves
and some of them that are in
sheltered places have quite a fine
showing of perfectly green, healthy
looking leaves.

unless it runs down into the roots CT
the trees and in places where there
is snow and ice the ground hog
probably serves purpose TO begin
with, in southern Arizona there are
no ground hogs. Whether Or not it
would be possible to train a badger,
a prairie dog or a gopher to do tie
ground hogs stunt is another big
question, and anyway, with tbs sun
almost sure to be shining when the
act of looking for the shadow is
pulled off the prediction would be
each year that there would be six
weeks more of winter and SO aft ar
all the big question viii remain, how
can we have six weeks more of
something that we already haven't

1926, wilfully abandoned him IN
October, the same year. She is now
49,
He used two witnesses, ms cnauf-
feur Edward p Carney, and his sec
retary John r. German, and did not
personally take the stand.
Carney testified that he moved Mrs.
Browning's trunks from Mr.. Brown
ing's Kew Gardens home on Long
ings mother. Mrs. Catherine Heenan.
He said the move was ordered by
Mrs. Heenan, from whom he took
orders, although employer by Brown
ing.
He told of telephone conversation
which Browning called to him to
listen in" to when Mrs. Heenan ls
said to have declared her daughter
through" with the real estate man.
Both Mrs Browning and her mother
had likewise said they were through,
sick and tired" and would never
&c back" the chauffeur testified.
John W. Mack, representing Brown,
ing, then rested his case, having
presented all the asserted Harmless
testimony which he said he wlshec
TO offer.
The first motion of the day was
made by Harry Epstein, of Mrs.
Browning's defense staff H urgeo
immediate exclusion of the public
and the press,
Mack, however, urged that his
clients formal attempt to establish
abandonment be heard in open court.
After that, he said, he would favor
closed doors for the rest of the inti-
mate details Of the Browning's mar
lied life.
Justice Seeger reserved his ruling
on the plea for secrecy and his deci-
sion may not be known until tomor-
row.
