H. Walker declined to become counsel for the gentlemen who are moving to secore the impeachment of R. W. Archbald, the federal judge who let off the wire pool men with small fines and who sentenced a poor smuggler to jail and a rich smuggler to a trifling financial payment. Judges are impeached for “high crimes and misdemeanors. bag It is necessary to secure the action of a majority of the house of representatives and then the case is tried—often in a partisan epirit—before the senate of the United States. In the latter body the powers of special privilege are still among those present. Even when the misdemeanors of a judge are quite flag rant and his crimes quite “high,” these, his judges, are not apt to; be severe ; It is doubtful whether Judge Archbald has been guilty of high crimes and misdemeanors within the meaning of the consti- tution. There is no doubt that Judge Archbald has shown him self the kind of judge who warps the laws so that a different kind of justice is meted out to rich and poor, The rich pay a fine which is so proportioned to their means as to be no punish- ment at all-—the poor serve terms in jail. Archbald in this respect is typical of a majority of our federal judges. He is no worse than Grosseup, Pollock and a host of others of that stamp. If it were possible to remove ‘Archbald by impeachment the whole federal judiciary might be rendered amenable to the public welfare. But impeachment is too cumbersome and inadequate a/ remedy. If there were a provision for the recall of federal iudges Archbald would be recalled. In the absence of such a he will go on serving special privilege, and when he takes up his new duties as a member of the commerce, court, to which he has just been promoted, he will do the same thing there. GOOD EVENING!

Young Lochinvar Again There was mounting ‘mong folks of the Vanderbilt clan, ‘The Vans and the Frenches they rode and they ran, ‘There was racing and chasing and scratching of dirt— But Young Lochinvar got away with the skirt. ‘The rumpus was of no avail. Miss Estelle Julia French, favorite niece of Mrs. Elsie French Vanderbilt, has gone for keeps with Young Lochinvar Geraghty, chauffeur. Father French followed fast, with his muffler cut out, but he reached Center a over the Connecticut border, too late to forbid the banns. ¢ fugitives were already married. And now New- port is scandalized that such a thing could be. On that same day it developed that a certain wealthy woman of Aurora, Ill, had also been won and wed by a knight of the carbureter. And, like Newport, Aurora is scandalized. That is to sav, the part of Aurora that has money enough to hire chauf- feurs. All of which is much more diverting than alarming—to the i individual who can’t afford to hire chauffeurs. For to the ordinary individual—who can't afford to hire chauffeurs—the spectacle of a young girl of the Newport colony with a chauffeur is much less repalsive than some other es that society specializes in—that of the sale of a young Of 18 to an old rake like John Jacob Astor, for example. To tell the truth, we rather like this twentieth century ism. The average chauffeur is a decent sort of individual, rather less given to drink and other deviltry than the individual who hires chauffeurs. We can't see why Shanffeurs shouldn't marry Newport girls—if they can ap Certainly we are in nowise alarmed or scandalized by the idea.

BY R. W. MADIBON. SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Aug. 15. —The trans-Pacifie greyhound, Nip- pon Maru, was deserted, except for the Chinese crew and the customs guards. Six men, fn overalls and caps, carrying electric torches, a long wire cane and screwdrivers, were prowling here and there, from the bow to stern, from the first class cabins on the topmost deck to th dark, dirty fire room, where cool! naked to the waist, feed the gr furnaces. These six men were searching for contraband opium. Inspector C. J. Benninger opened & cupboard, drew out a tray of many glasses and disappeared on his hands and knees, He had gone into a narrow passage tn back of the cupboard. Ten minutes later he emerged, covered with cobwebs and dirt, He hadn't found any op- fum.
