Bargain Days" for Prohibition Cases.
New York World. ]

Judge Isaac M. Meekns of North Carolina now presiding in the Federal Courts of this city took occasion on Wednesday to critcise a so- called "bargain-day' calendar which contained the names of 1S7 alleged violators of the Vol stead act The "bargain-day'' system is the sys- tenn by which defendants plead guilty to viola ton of the dry law, in the well-founded hope that they will receive lenient treatment and light lines, ranging from $1O to $50, in return for saving the Government the expense of trial rms system of cut-rate justice Judge Meekins described as "a joke and a farce"
 There is no doubt that it is just that But unfortunately it is also necessity as we'll as a Joke and farce For Emory H. Buckner pointed out during his term as United States Attorney in this district, "the thousands of petty arrests which have been made during the past lew years have swamped the Federal machinery '' Ihere are not judges enough attorneys enough to try prohibition as they come along if each defendant insists upon a jury trial The court calendars are cleared ''by letting the men plead guilty with the understanding that if they plead guilty the court will impose a fine < mat has always been the system. The pleas Iof guilty that have been made in my district are from sheer necessity"
 Joke and farce the system may be- But
 uhul there Is either more machinery or less law | u IS the only system that will keep prohibition
 cases moving through the courts.

A Great American.
Cincinnati Enquirer.)

One learns with regret that Mir Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes of the United States Supreme Court bench contemplaes resignation from his high office at early date Such act. at this time if Justice Holmes should carry out his announced intention, would represent serious loss to the Nation, to the American people.
 Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes is one of the eminent jurlst in the highest acceptation of that term, but he also is of the most acute and earnest student commentators upon the political, social and evolutionary conditions of the present day. He is philosopher of the cosmic type, yet he holds with uncompromising tenacity to the principles of true American ism, the Amerieanism which has been vindicated by the wisdom of human experience as applied to the conduct of the affairs of government after the formulas of the fathers of the republic
 The sneers and sophistry of the modern political 'regenerator" have never affected this calm, clear minded, patriotic man. His Amer icansm has remained without fear and without reproach. His are the traditions of the country. His like, and his like only, should be retained on the bench of the highest Court in the Ma tion. He is the exponent of and the defender of the fundamentals of constitutional sys- He recognizes the sporadicism of such sinister innovations as. prohibition into the structure of government. Already the Nation is deeply in- debted to him. It will be loath to see him retire from position in which he has so signally distinguished himself, benefited his country and contributed to the general welfare of humanity

A PROTESTANT PAPER ON THE
 CHURCH IN POLITICS.

From a late copy of The Churehman, a \ onal weekly paper of the Protestant Episcol hurch, quote the following editorial co lent:
 It is the conviction of The Church man that no religious journal should take party stands in political issues It holds precisely the same conviction in respect to churches. The position taken by the Methodist Board of Temperance. Prohibition aud Public Morals, as reveal ed in it's ''Clip-Sheet" of last week, is in violation of the best American tradi- tions The Board has come out in the most flat-footed fashion against the can didacy of Gov. Smith. They said in their "Clip-Sheet':
 The best service that
 Democrat can render the Demo-
 cratic Party in the present sit
 uation is to register an effective
 protest at the balot-box.
 And they said much more to the same effect. If this is not putting the Methodist Church into politics we don't understand plain English. Is our mem ory playing us trick when we seem
The Daily Alaska empire., 1928-08-22

to recall heated oratory, in the best
 Methodist style, against the reputed ac-
 tivities of the Roman Catholic Church
 in politics? We believe that the Metho-
 dist Church deserves the condemnation
 of all Americans for this kind of politi-
 cal activity-and would believe. pre-
 cisely the thing of any church
 which might undertake to support Gov.
 Smith and oppose MT. Hoover.
 The New York World, commenting upon the editorial of The Churchman comments it to the attention of the members of the Methodist Epsco- pal Church whose Board of Temperance, Pro hbtion and Public Morals, "is industriously attempting to drag the Methodist Church into the very center of the countrys politics"
 It would be well, also, to call the particular attention of the Christian Herald to The Church man comment.

WHY CAN'T PERFORMERS BE WHOLLY
 HONEST?

Senator Tess, in his speech notifying Senator Curtis of his nomination for Vice-President, ac- cepted for his party the challenge made by the Democratic candidate Prohibition, and de- cared this to be "the time and occasion to de- termine whether the people of America will ever agree to the return of the saloon.'
 Why is it so hard for professional Reformer tthe big "R' is purposely used) to be wholly honest? In the telegram that it has pleased Senator Fess to call challenge" Gov Smith said that the saloon is defunct. He insists that wants it back. Why does Senator Fess try to make the people believe that Gov. Smith stands for the return of the saloon? The only answer is that Senator Fess is out after votes and is willing to be dishonest to get them. He is running true to Anti-Saloon League form

A Canadian Flag.

tVictora, B. O., Times)
 IT the proposal of a distinctive Canadian flag were to be submitted to the Canadian people al least four-ffths of them would vote in favor or IL There are not many crown colonists left Tn canada Nor should there be any delay in putting this country a level with Australia New Zealand the Irish Free State and South Africa, all of which have their own flags Other countries are surprised that Canada, the oldest ana most prosperous of the younger Dominions or the Britannic Commonwealth remains with out its own national emblem
 Canada inevitably will have her own flap ana ln this there should be both the Union Jack and some Canadian emblem This would tynifv the union between Canada and the United King- dom. The Union Jack, of course, is emblematic TOT ohly the union of England Scotland and Ireland.

PREMIER MINE NOT NEARING
 EXHAUSTION.

That the Premier mine will be operating for many years to come and continue a dvi- dend payer is the opinion of H. F. Pullen, editor of the Prince Rupert News. who recently made a trip to that property and other properties owned by the Premier company in the Portland Canal district Writing in the editorial column of his paper, MT. Pullen declares that the reduc- tion by 25 per cent in the dividends of the Pre- mier was not due to shrinkage of output or profits but for the purpose of creating a surplus for the development of the Porter-Idaho, the Pros perity and the silverado groups, that have come under the ownership of the Premier. While Dale Pitt, manager of the Premier, insists that these properties yet prospects rather than mines, MT. Pullen expresses the belief that they will become shippers of ore as soon as the equipment for mining can be installed and miners obtained. He says the reserves of the Premier proper have been increased since the last annual report not withstanding that there has been constant draw ing of ore He says there are at least 1,000,- GOO tons of ore to be mined before the Premier reaches exhaustion-and this may be increased by further development that is always in pro gress It is believed that long before the exhaus- tion of the Premier, other properties owned by it will be producing and proved to contain large ore bodies
 MT. Pullen leads his article on the mine with this general comment
 
 famous is still the center of attraction
 for all visitors to the district. It is still
 going strong, shipping ore, paying diyi-
 dends and keeping little army of men
 employed either directly or indirectly. So
 great is the faith of the management in
 the mine that when the big fire came
 recently and wiped out the big bunk
 house and offices connected herewith.
 they immediately set to work and rebuilt
 them better and more permanently and
 more modern than they before
 Just what the life of the mine is
 likely to be is not known. All that is
 known is that they constantly find
 ing bodies which they add to the
 reserve Only week so ago
 strike of rich found in Num-
 Der level and the management states
 that such kinds of common
 and do not any excitement
 with them. It is just part of the rou-
 tine. The interesting thing about it is
 that each find proongs the life of the
 mine.
