Tue BurLer Times says trely that-he is an able jurist, : lesrued and upright judge, a “‘self- made mon, haling by his own exer- boy to the high position he now oe-| {eupies on the bench he now holds” — not a word of which we would gain- }say.—Warsaw Times (Rep.) Judge W.

The Views has repeatedly said that the judges of our courts are free from prejudice, bribes, and that their opinions are usually wise | years and worthy of the closest study: and Judge Graves’ opinion in no wise changes our opinion, The Judge has long held a high place in the estimation of the people of his district and more or less all over the state; and the Washburn case places him still higher.—Garden City Views, This judicial distriet will send a solid delegation to “Springfield in favor of Hon. Waller W. Graves for Supreme Judge. The district has generally been successful in getting what it fought for, and if the past is a criterion of the future Mr. Graves will be elevated to the supreme bench. His qualifications are of the highest order and the high regard the country entertains for the fair- ness and the honesty of the Missouri supreme court will be fully sustained by Judge Graves.—St. ClairCo, Dem- ovrat, i It is needless to say that Henry The judge has j local health of the | womanly organism, | that weakness must | of the general tion worked his way up from a plow | health invari- | Pierce’s Fa- /\lrains, heals inflammation and ulcera- Whenever the Globe-Demoerat ad- woeates a policy for the Democratic party, to be safe we had better pur sue a directly opposite potiey Building contracts for the state university at) Columbia to’ the amount of 874.000 were let Satur- day to Jefierson City and St. Louis cor tractors A million dollar oil company has been orgit md articles of asso eiation issued toMprospeet oil land in Jarry county, Mo.

Washington, Feb, 4.—At. the con- Senate to-day the consideration of the bill providing for an increase of the salaries of the United States judges was resumed. Mr. Teller thought there ought to be a general revision of government salaries, and he was not prepared to vote fora “piecemeal operation.” He suggest- ed that the salaries of members of the cabinet ought to be increased. Mr. Elkius offered an amendment providing that members of the cabi- net be given salaries of $12,500 a year, but it was laid upon the table by a vote of 38 to 21, The Senate finally passed the bill increasing judicial salaries by a vote of 39 to 21, By the terms of the measure the following salaries are to be paid United States judges: Chief justice supreme court of the United States, $13,000; each associate justice, $12,- 5004 circuit court judges, $7,500; district judges, $6,250; chief justice court of claims, $6,125; each asso- ciate justice, $5,625; chief justice court of appeals, District of Colum- ia, $8,000; each associate justice, 7,500; chief justice supreme court District of Columbia, $6,750; each associate justice, $6,250.
