Seattle Republican

THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN Price One Year, $3.00. Single Copies, 10 Cents. Despite the parsimoniousness with which the members of the eleventh legislature began the session they ended it with a lavishness that has startled the taxpayers in every voting precinct throughout the length and breadth of the state. With a Eight Million Dollar Legislature. rush and a roar bills passed the legislature appropriating hundreds of thousands of dollars of the people's money and when the members did set up and take notice of what they had done in the way of appropriations something like eight millions of dollars had been voted away for this or that pet measure and personal graft. This was all brought about by practically all of the members becoming sponsors for one or more of the pet grafts and agreeing among themselves, "if you will tickle me I will tickle you," and men who intended to hold the legislature down to strict economy permitted personal motives to take them off their feet and once they got to going they were unable to stop themselves. But the puzzle is just how so great an amount of money can be paid out by the state treasurer when the revenues from all sources for the state Columbia River Bridge Graft. per annum do not exceed three and a half million dollars, which at host will leave the state over a mil- lion dollar deficit to be cared for by the twelfth legislature. Among the pet measures that were put through the legislature, which will filch her exchequer out of thousands of dollars, might be named the one which appropriated $196,000 for the purchase of the Columbia river bridge, which is nothing more nor less than the state building and maintaining an expensive bridge for the benefit of a private enterprise. While the bridge seems to be quite essential to the development of the community in which it is located and likewise the town hardby, yet the state should not be called upon to finance it as all the revenues arising therefrom will go to enrich private persons and concerns. The eleventh legislature on the whole has done some good work and passed some very necessary legislation. Among measures passed that should Some Important redown to the everlasting credit of Measures Passed. the members thereof are: The codifying of the criminal laws of the state and the passage of a bill legalizing the same; the passage of the new educational code bill; the passage of the military code bill; the passage of the local option bill and the passage of the woman suffrage bill, all of which have either already been signed by the governor or will be within the next few days. A large number of bills of lesser importance which only effect certain communities were also passed, but the bills named above are the more important and the ones that effect the interest of the state from the eastern to the western boundaries and from the southern to the northern lines. There is no doubt but that the local option bill hung like a pall over the legislature from the very day it opened until the closing week of the session and Local Option to an extent demoralized all legislation Hung Heavy. and likewise crippled itself—neither side finally getting what it wanted—nevertheless a local option bill was passed which puts the question up to the people purely on its merits. If the advocates of the Anti-Saloon League can put up a better argument for a "dry' community than the advocates of the Royal Arch or the liquor dealers can for a "wet" community then the incorporated city or the county will go dry and vice versa. In other words both sides must begin a campaign to determine whether the respective units of the state will go wet or dry. Those representing the liquor interest are much better pleased with the law than if they had gotten the Falconer-McMaster bill and those advocating the anti-saloon interests are much better pleased with the law than if they had gotten the Nichols bill. Criminal Code Much Needed. Supreme Court. To have the wheat separated from the craft so far as these laws were concerned seemed absolutely necessary and therefore the codifying of the criminal laws was one of the most commendable things done by the late legislature. The criminal code as prepared by the commission contained many things that had to be threshed over and out and the members went about the ' SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, MARCH 12, 1909. work in a manner that clearly demonstrated that they proposed to get the best results out of it and it is very generally believed they were thoroughly successful. No legislature of the state has grappled with a more important measure than the new criminal code. A word as to the educational code might not be out of place since for a time it was looked upon by a great majority of the teachers as a pet Educational Code hobby of Superintendent H. B. Great Improvement. Dewey, which was being pushed by him for the express purpose of giv- ing him and his deputies more power. The educational committee in both the senate and the house of representatives listened carefully to all exceptions to the code and then the committees began to knock off the rough corners, sheer the bill of some of its horns, extract some of its teeth, fashion it into a thing of beauty and finally sending it to the governor for his signature. "It's so far ahead of the old school methods in vogue in this state that it will be like a state with no constitution and then suddenly adopting one which meets the requirements of a rapidly growing and thoroughly progressive state," came from a well known educator who is a member of the senate. There is not much that a lay citizen—even a newspaper man—can say for or against a military code, for in times of peace he is inclined to think Military Code all expenditures for militaryism a Looks Good. willful waste of public money and in times of war think them a measly sum for the protection of our common country. The peaceful law-abiding citizen looks upon the pomp, parade and display of the soldier as inimical to the perpetuation of the free institutions of this country and with a tendency to royalty. They therefore never have a word of praise for the army only when it promptly saves the country from some outbreak precipitated by a mob. On the whole it is said the new military code is an exceptionally good one and will greatly improve the affairs of the state militia. A great many graft bills ran the gauntlet of both houses of the late legislature, but the worst of them all, if such a thing be possible, was the That Oyster Beach oyster land grab bill. Representative Gunderson, now deceased, who hailed from Mason County, for years successfully opposed the passage of a similar bill, but he was succeeded by Dr. W. M. Beach, who seems to have the interest of the oyster men more at heart than the state's, and that being a fact, he has hammered away ever since he stepped into Gunderson's shoes to filch the state out of her oyster lands. It's true he only got 400 acres this time, but that's an entering wedge and at each succeeding legislature he will endeavor to get more until all will have been taken. It is rather remarkable that a great many of the representatives from King County religiously worked and voted against the passage of the Railroad Terminal bill, which had for its object the assessing of the railroad terminals in those counties where they are. It was strange for a King County representative to have so acted and voted, and if, for no other reason than because it was a direct blow at the financial interest of King County. In the face of such a record can those representatives expect to ever return to the legislature as members thereof? If they really expect it then they are expecting a good deal more than is coming to them and if properly exposed a good deal more than they will ever get. Last week some space was given in The Seattle Republican to the apparent leaders of the house of representatives, which was the topic of House Leaders Took Exceptions. general discussion among the members after the paper had been distributed in the senate and house. House Leaders Took Exceptions. While some of the more eratic members felt a bit chagrinned at what was said about them and showed their ignorance by letting the other members see their chagrin, yet on the whole the criticism was considered eminently fair, coming as it did from one that had asked the legislature for no favors in the shape of the passage of some pet bill or anything else. Briefly we propose in this issue to discuss the men who assumed the leadership of the senate. Historical Society LIBRARY UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON APR 29 1952 REPUBLICAN Volume XV, Number 24.4 H. R. CAYTON, Publisher There is no denying the fact that A. S. Ruth was a leader in the senate. While Ruth does not seem to possess those qualities that draw men to him, **Ruth Ruled** yet if by chance they get caught in his **The Roost.** drag net he at once becomes the master mind among them and completely dom- ineers them even though the other fellows oftimes have superior intellects to himself. He is a stormy debater and never arises to speak on a subject, but that he attracts general attention. In debates he says what he thinks and always thinks the meanest things to say. Men will frequently yield a point rather than incur the satirical opposition of Ruth on the floor. He manages to always be with the majority in organizing the senate, which impresses the observer with, despite his seeming independen- tness in politics he has learned how to take care of Ruth. Howeveer, whatever may be his motive in always being with the majority, when once with it he proceeds at once to assume the leadership of it and thus far has always landed right side up with care. While W. H. Paulhamus does not create the stir that does Ruth when he rises to speak on even a very important question nor does he under pressure Wears Well as make so eloquent appeal as does Ruth Senate Leader. and while he is not so keen a debater as Ruth, yet he is pointed in his speeches and states things so clearly that he is always more or less convincing. In the capacity of a leader he draws men to him rather than catch them in his drag net and then convert them. He wears well and holds his friends when once he makes them. He may occasionally go into a line up, but for the most part he is always found on the popular side of all public questions. Few men handle themselves in a debate better than George F. Cotterill and he will always assume the position of an important personage in Though a Democrat every assemblage with whom he is Yet a Real Leader. associated. He is really an eloquent speaker; he is really a courteous and obliging gentleman; he is really a man who makes friends by the score, and finally he is really a man that is absolutely loyal to a friend or a cause and those qualities combined make him an able leader of men. He was truly a senate leader and the representative men who went to Olympia to get things done for Seattle are lauding Cotterill to the skies. It is to be regretted that he is a Democrat in politics. The day before the legislature adjourned a resolution was before the senate calling for the appointment of a committee to investigate the state insurance office. The friends of the committee felt sure of a sufficient number of votes to carry it, but Will G. Graves spoke against it and so pointed were his remarks on the subject that when he had finished and a roll call ordered two of the senators changed their votes and did so, they afterwards confessed, as a result of Graves' speech. Graves is both a brilliant and brainy man, which makes him something of a leader, though a Democrat among Republicans. If he were as diplomatic as he is brainy he would be one of the leaders, his politics to the contrary notwithstanding. Many of the senators were hard and successful workers and accomplished a great deal in the way of legislation, but the men mentioned Hard Workers above were the speakers in the But Not Speakers. senate and were called upon to expound the questions at issue. In a combine Knickerbocker, Potts, Nichols, Bassett, Rosenhaupt, Presby, Cox, Booth and others did effective work, but out of a combine with every fellow for himself and the devil take the hindermost some of them would fare badly. It's the man though in the minority who is able to get things by logical arguments from the majority that is a real leader among men. But of others The Republican will have something to say from time to time. “Nearly $500 was collected for the legislative ball, and after attending the same I have been trying to figure out what became of the money,” a member of the legislature was overheard to remark before the adjournment. “It did not strike me that to exceed $150 could have been expended on the affair, and if I am correct then what became of the balance of the money? My $5 is gone, and I am not regretting it, but all of us should know what it went for.” Albert Hansen. Eyes Carefully Examined and Properly Fitted With Glasses 706 First Avenue.

"Jurors have intelligence" declares Judge Handford—and yet no one would ever have suspected as much. And now an indulgent and long suffering people are to be bored for four or eight years with columns of White House rubbish about Miss Helen Taft just as though they had not been taxed almost beyond human indurance for the past eight years with the same kind of rot about Miss Roosevelt. Washington's new county has been named Grant, which is a tribute to the famous war veteran of that name. With Washington as the name of the state and with a Lincoln, Grant, Douglas, Adams, Garfield, Stevens, Columbia and Whitman counties the state is rich in historic names of the republic. Will some one explain to an expectant public by what law the superior court judges have to mix with the affairs of the sheriff and the county commissioners? Is this another case of might making right? Charles A. Reynolds seems to be opposing the gowing of the judges of the state on the grounds that, its a useless expense for them to incur. Since Mr. Reynolds will hardly have to go through with that expense even if it is the law, we are curious to know, why he is so badly exercised over the matter. Now let the A. Y. P. conjure up some plan to get its label on the Kangley sisters, the fair triumvirate that is to leave Seattle for London to attend the suffragist convention, and it will have hit upon an advertising dodge such as it has not done before. "Fifteen years ago the streets of Seattle were in very bad condition," says a writer of Seattle fifteen years ago. Unless our eyes deceive us very much, it occurs to us they are also in pretty bad condition just now. Those restaurants that do not sell watered milk charge so much for pure milk that the customer would prefer to drink the doctored stuff rather than go broke for the pure goods. It may not be the thieves that have fallen out down in Tennessee, where Col. Cooper is being tried for having murdered Senator Carmack, but there seems to be no doubt that the criminals have fallen out, and unless the officers of the law get cold feet, a big bunch of the most prominent men of the community will be behind the bars within a fortnight. There just naturally seems to be hell in the air down in Cuba and that too despite the fact it is domineered by the "white man." Its state of affairs are in as wretched a condition as those of Hayti. We suspect the day is not far distant when Uncle Sam will have to take over that whole bunch of islands to keep peace in the family. If President Taft does not convert a number of Democrats during his term of the presidency then he will have made a most dismal failure of those he has taken under his official watch care. Thomas Payne having lost his position as secretary of the A. Y. P. commissioners, owing to differences arising between himself and the commissioners, will doubtless return to his first love and worship again at the shrine of Senator Piles with the hope of getting another official job. Because a "rich banker" wedded his laundress in Illinois, it was considered of sufficient importance to make an Associated Press dispatch of it, as though the banker had committed a crime. The laundress was perhaps a good deal more of a woman than he was a man judging from the actions of many other alleged rich men. The State Capital. The late legislature has passed a bill; which paves the way to the construction of the muchly needed state capitol building for this state and while it will be something like five or ten years before that will have been accomplished, yet each year it will be getting closer and closer to the end and when it will have been finished the state of Washington will have one of the most sightly capitol buildings of all the states of the Union. Speaking about the capitol building when it will have been completed from a sightly stand point, reminds the writer that, there are very few, if any, more commanding views on Puget Sound, than the grounds where now stands the foundation of the capitol building, that will sooner or later be erected. The grounds have not as yet been beautified, although recently a $30,000 mansion for the governor of the state, has been erected thereon. With the expenditure of a few thousand dollars, and perhaps less, it however, could be converted into one of the most attractive spots in the Northwest. And speaking about beautifying the grounds it has been suggested that a number of the prisoners from Walla Walla be brought over and put to work on the grounds as soon as the weather will permit and kept there until the grounds have been perfectly landscaped and all of the necessary flowers and shrubbery have been set out. If that course is persued it need not cost the state but a few hundred dollars—that is the cost of maintaining the prisoners while there. Since there is a move toward putting the prisoners out on public highway building, it seems that no better place could be found than this particular spot. THE SATTLE REPUBLICAN ```markdown ``` Let's hope that there will be no delay in perfecting the plans which the legislature has opened the way to and that the new capitol building will be begun immediately if not sooner, that the state house officers may soon be able to move out of their present pent up quarters into more inviting ones.

The lawyer said sadly to his wife on his return home one night: "People seem very suspicious of me. You know old Jones? Well, I did some work for him last month, and when he asked me for the bill this morning, I told him out of friendship that I wouldn't charge him anything. He thanked me cordially, but said he'd like a receipt." "I haven't a lawyer, judge, and I wish you'd give me one," said MARCH 12. 1909. [Image of a person's face with a neutral expression, cropped to just the head and shoulders]. an alleged burglar to Judge Phelan, when arraigned in the recorder's court. The court, on learning that the respondent was penniless, made the assignment and the case came up for trial. The defendant, however, was plainly displeased with the appearance of his counsel and told one of the court officers about it. The judge, desirous of finding out the young fellow's reasons for not liking the attorney, called the prisoner up to the bench. "I understand that you do not like the counsel assigned," began the judge. "That's right; he looks like a comic valentine," observed the client. "Why, he's a great lawyer," the judge said gravely. "He defended Charles J. Guiteau." "Who was he?" "The man who assassinated President Garfield," replied his honor. "Well, that's the first I ever heard of that," began the prisoner, and then, after a silence, he inquired: "What did they do with that Git-Git-or whatever his name is?" "Why, they hanged Guiteau," answered the judge. "Just as I thought; I kin see my finish now—me for the hemp," concluded the disgusted man, as he walked back to the prisoner's dock.—Detroit News. Either a wild man or an ape has been seen in the forest of a York state community.

March 4th, 1909, saw the beginning of the end of the dissolution of the political triumvirate that has held the state of Washington in the hollow of its hand for the past eight years, the personnel of which were the Hon. Wesley L. Jones, the Hon. Frank W. Cushman and the Hon. Will E. Humphrey, who for the past eight years have represented the state of Washington in the house of representatives of Congress and who, owing to that fact, have incidentally dictated the politics of the state. It is repeated, the beginning of the end of that political triumvirate set in March 4th last when Mr. Jones became the junior senator of the state and Miles Poindexter stepped into his congressional shoes. Next year it begins to look as if Cushman would either attempt to relieve Senator Piles of his senatorial toga and become the junior colleague of Mr. Jones or he will retire completely from politics. It, however, is not expected he will do the latter though he may be froced out of the senatorial race in order to get a federal judgship for his brother, but whatever he does the spell he and his colleagues by sticking together have been holding over the voters of the state will have been broken. There will hardly be any fight on Humphrey in his district next year and yet there may be, but it is safe to predict that he will have smooth sailing until after 1910 when the state will be redistricted. Humphrey has the whip hand on Seattle so long as Seattle is a part of the "northwest," for if Seattle has two or more candidates in the field it might mean the loss of her representative in Congress, and in view of the fact that Senator Piles has no cinch on the nomination to succeed himself, the leading business men of King County will see to it that she has but one candidate for Congress and Humphrey having some claim on it by right of possession would naturally be the man they will stand by. A word as to Jones before quitting this subject might not be out of place. Though he has been one of the representatives from this state for the past eight years, yet no one can gain say but that he has given her an able and fearless representation. He gained a high rank in the counsels of the party at Washington City. His high standing in the house of representatives of Congress will give him a far better standing in the senate from the outset than an inexperienced member could get during his entire first term. Mr. Jones has made good in the house and it is the consensus of opinion that he will make better in the senate. It is rather a singular coincident that as this triumvirate begins to go to pieces of its own accord the day for political combinations in the state becomes a thing of the past, and the eleventh legislature, which has just adjourned, so far from making sectional combinations for the purpose of controlling the nomination and election of the various representatives in congress and likewise the state officials, left the state capitol with more bad blood coursing through their veins against their fellow members than has ever before been witnessed among legislators of this state, thus showing without a shadow of doubt that, the day of political combinations in the state of Washington is a thing of the past. Even among the members of the legislature no combination entered into is effective after adjournment, for perhaps not a single member of one legislature—save the holdover senators—will be a member of the next. Every one who gets an office in the state of Washington now gets it on his own personnel and on his personal efforts, and neither special interests, combines nor cliques can to any great extent assist him. look as if Cushma nwould either attempted to relieve Senator Piles of his THAT STATE HOUSE INVESTIGATION. Nothing in all the wide world succeeds like perseverance, and no one is more willing to testify to the truthfulness of the statement than Gov. Hay, who made a stubborn fight against odds to force the eleventh legislature to appoint a joint committee to investigate the office of secretary of state and the state insurance office, in which it is alleged irregularities exist. The senate three times refused to consider the proposition and the house twice turned it down, but Gov. Hay was not only insistent, but persistent and at the eleventh hour of the session the investigation of the offices of all the state officials was ordered and the joint committee is as follows: Senators Allen and Fishback and Representatives McMaster, Buchanan and Hubbell. A sweeping as well as searching investigation is promised. During all the discussion as to a legislative investigation of the offices of certain officials The Seattle Republican has been greatly surprised to find so much opposition to it, even though it was brought about by hostile newspapers. It seemed to us that the officials themselves would have courted investigation, if for no other purpose than to give their enemies the lie, and it likewise seemed to us that the members of the legislature would have been only too anxious to have expurged their party of any official corruption. Whenever such an argument was presented to the legislative leaders, who opposed the investigation, they would reply, "It's a John L. Wilson proposition for the punishment of a political enemy," all of which may have been true, but even though it was a John L. Wilson proposition if it contained sufficient facts to warrant a suspicion of irregularities in the office it should have been looked into. No man is greater than his party and if he be accused of wrong doing and is innocent he should have no fears of going before a jury of his peers and fully explaining his official acts. He should have no fears of throwing open his books and vaults to a jury of his peers to see and examine for themselves his official acts. Some times innocent men are hung, but it is almost next to impossible for an investigating committee to convict an innocent man by going through his official records, and especially if on that committee he has one or more personal friends. Combinations and cliques should be wiped out, and if a man is charged with unfairness every honest man should be ready to lend all assistance to bring out the truth. It is hoped the committee will now do its duty as patriotic citizens and not as partisans. 5 THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN Frank W. Cushman Wesley L. Jones Wesley L.

Hopkins, deceased, 114 N. Harvard Ave., Seattle, Wn. Feb. 19—March 19, 1909 8 CURRENT COMMENT. CANARY BIRDS are in a fair way to be blacklisted at many of our family hotels. It is remarkable what enlightened families will endure themselves and what they will impose upon their neighbors for the sake of a pet dog or canary bird. But since it comes to being awakened each morning when sleep seems sweetest and one has just turned over for "only forty winks more" the proposition grows monotonous. Should public sentiment grow strong enough in that direction the hotel signs of the future will read: "Children, dogs and canary birds, not admitted." "DIRTY PLAYS," says a writer, will not be presented if the women of America agree that they shall not. In other words, if they are presented at all the women are responsible. The growing idea that women must find the solution to all moral problems, with the admittence that they succeed in each crusade undertaken, is generally conceded. It is a poor rule which will not work both ways. So, all far seeing Americans must realize that the American women are building the ladder by which they are rising and to them the ballot must come in the course of time. It is inevitable and would of its self materialize in the shaping up of natural events. MOTHER'S CLOSE talks with her boys and girls must commence when the tiny tots first begin to ask questions. These must be answered according to age, of course, a mother who has not the confidence of her boy or girl of tender years can never have the confidence of her boy or girl of older years. The growth of the two must be simultaneous. It is only human to want to know, and young minds will seek answers when questions present themselves, just as older ones do. Naturally the mother is the one to whom the child first turns. If there exists no confidence on such matters between parent and child, companions on the streets and school grounds, will have a ready answer forthcoming. Every one realizes the advantage of a high poised view point, therefore the mother who fails to get in touch with her children on all lines, will some day stand helplessly by while they go to outsiders for the advise she yearns to give, or seek information from those whose ideas are deplorably beneath her conception of the life beautiful. A NEW FEATURE inaugurated last week at the normal school at Cheney, Washington, was a free medical examination of students. It is a distinct departure in connection with normal school work in the West. The purpose is to determine the physical condition of the students to the end that everything possible may be done to serve the health and to check any tendency to disease that may exist. The examination blanks call for the name, age, class, height and weight of students. Information is sought in regard to the student's connection with near relatives who have suffered from consumption, heart disease, scrofula, dyspepsia or catarrah; also, in regard to diseases from which the student has suffered. The general examination takes up the physique, diathesis, skin, eyes, ears, nose, throat, neck, shoulders, spine, thorax, temperature, pulse, heart and lungs. Each student is given that special help and suggestion needed in order that he may become physically strong. TUBERCULOSIS is recognized as one of the greatest enemies of the human race. Yet it surely can not much longer elude successful treatment as the civilized world is making a united effort to stamp it out. John Mitchell, vice-president of the American Federation of Labor, says: "Laboring men could and should do much to aid in the fight." He further says: "In 1888 tuberculosis took 51 per cent. of all cigarmakers, but by driving the business out of tenements into well lighted shops they had reduced the death rate from tuberculosis to 24 per cent. In the same time the length of life of the cigarmakers increased from 31 years to 46 years. Tuberculosis claimed one third of all workmen dying between the ages of 20 and 40 years." MANY CHILDREN is a popular thing in Hawaii just now and also a money saving proposition. Ex-President Roosevelt's policies meet favor generally in the Island, but none more so than his horror of race suicide. Official action proves the statemont. The house of representatives of the territorial legislature has just finished passing a bill on the subject. It provides that all men who become the fathers of six or more children shall be exempt from poll tax. WILMINGTON, DEL., has recently had the biggest whipping post day in her criminal records. Eighteen culprits were whipped for various offenses, principally larceny, and 255 lashes were inflicted. As a genuine cat o' nine tails is used a total of 2,295 stripes was laid across the bare backs of the unfortunate men. None were severely whipped. INDIAN MUSIC has in it a vein of fundamental music which can be used to advantage by modern composers and with this fact in view Congress has appropriated $42,000 for study along that line. Many ridiculed the plan but when it is remembered that the various schools of music in the world are based on aboriginal notions of melody and harmony to such an extent that one can generally detect the racial school without looking at the name of the composer, it no longer seems absurd. Those who have lived much among the Indians are aware that music with them is a very small factor. They cannot sing at all in the modren acceptance of the term. They have chants and wails, but to sing a melody with the open throat is almost unknown. Like all aboriginal peoples, whatever of music there is in them is in a minor key. There is no doubt THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN that the blanket Indians are soon to go and their music will surely pass with them unless means are taken to preserve it. Judging from the plans of the promoters of the project, it is believed that here may be found a basis for a genuinely American school of composition. BENCH AND BAR. A trained nurse performing her usual duties, and exercising the skill which is the result of training in her profession, does not, according to the decision of the United States Circuit Court for the District of Rhode Island, in Parkes vs. Seasongood, 152 Federal Reporter, 583, come within the definition of a "servant," but rather is one who renders personal services to an employer in an independent calling. The St. Louis Court of Appeals in the case of In re Clark, 103 Southern Reporter, 1105, holds that the absence of an attorney from the court in which he has business, and when he should be there to attend to it, and when his absence delays or impedes the court's business, constitutes a contempt of court. An attorney at law is an officer of the court, and it is as such incumbent on him to attend the sittings of the court when a case in which he is of counsel is on trial, and which trial cannot proceed in his absence, as it is for the sheriff or the clerk of the court to be present. As the Democratic state committee of New York is, under the laws of that state, elected by delegates from the respective senatorial districts, and has no constitution or by-laws regulating its actions, the Supreme Court of New York, in Cummings vs. Bailey, 104 New York Supplement, 283, holds that a majority of the state committee cannot expel the representatives of a county therein, and that an attempted expulsion will be enjoined. The court is of the opinion that no such extreme arbitrary power as to expel members of the committee and elect others in their places shall be asserted without express authority. A nice point as to the admissibility of evidence is decided by the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals in Busby vs. State, 103 Southwestern Reporter, 638. This was a prosecution for embezzlement of state funds by an employee of the state. Prior to the trial of the criminal case, the state had obtained a judgment in a civil action by it against accused and his bondsmen. This judgment was admitted in evidence against accused in the criminal case. On the original hearing the court held that the judgment was admissible, but on rehearing it arrives at a different conclusion; Judge Brooks, however, dissenting. As principal authorities for the decision on rehearing, the court cites Queen vs. Moreau, 11 A. & E. 128; Briton vs. State, 77 Ala. 202. When you want to insure with a reliable firm, call on E. W.
