Stephen J. Hold has now the distinction
of the longest term on the supreme bench ,
having , on the 17th of lost month , passed the
tlmo of John Marshall , which was thirty-
lour years , fi'vo months and six days. Field
Is now 81 years old , an ago when men usu
ally fed like doing little or nothing , but
prefers the labors of the court to retirement.
Ills mind Is still good , or It would not find
fascination In continued and concentrated
work. And the solitary hard studies of a
judge arc moro their own reward than those
of any other high public officer. The law
yers know him , but the world docs not. John
Marshall held on till SO , hut one year less
than Mr. Held.
Of the chief justices , says a writer In the
Globe-Democrat , Marshall's long term com
prises about one-third ot the time from Jay's
appointment by Washington down to today.
Ills predecessors wcro In office but a little
while. Before him thcro had been moro or
less vacillation and uncertainty about the
posltl n of first judge , and not until he went
upon the bench and manifested his mastery
did It assume Its fixed character as the head
of a great department of government , Just
such u man as Marshall was needed at that
tlmo for that office , and John Adams has
rarely shown moro sagacity as a statesman
than In casting to the winds all Importunity
and thrusting It upon Marshall. Patterson
was a member of the court , whoso nomina
tion Marshall advised , hut Adams declined
making the appointment. The place was
Ihcn offered again to Jay , who refused It ,
( when the president decided on Mai shall as
the man. He hadn't the credentials of a
collegian , as had the Judges before him
Ellsworth , Rutledge and Jay which were
always a big recommendation with Adams ,
and that ho could overlook this point with
out scruple speaks well for his native judg
ment.
The whole tlmo of the chief justices , com
mencing with Jay and continuing with
Fuller , Is 107 years. Marshall's predecessors
licld the office but ten years , so that a cen
tury of this tlmo has been filled by five men ,
beginning with Marshall. John Rutledge
liardly numbers with the chief justices at all ,
for he missed confirmation , though he sat
on the bench after being nominated. Wash
ington had great faith in the ability and In
tegrity of John Jay , and offered him any
office under the new government ho might
'want , The station most agreeable to Jay was
the fiist place on the supreme bench. In
this he Judged himself fairly well. His cast
of mind , however , was not pre-eminently
judicial. The supreme court was organized
In , April , 1790 , with Jay as chief Justice , its
consttuctlon dating but a year later than
that of the government. Jay had been In
office but two years when he was given an
opportunity to run for governor of Now
York against Clinton the state executive
With all his federalism , he thought bettci
of the governorship than he did of his posi
tion on the supreme bench , and entered the
race. He was elected , but , was not given a
majority of the votes By a decision of a
committee friendly to Clinton ho was con
tinued as governor. When his term expired
Jay was again chosen to succeed him , and
was elected Ho thereupon resigned as chief.
justice , having been In office five-years
JAY1S DISTINCTION.
Jay was born In the city of New York ,
graduated thcro from King's college and be
came a lawyer : He was In congress at 30 ,
and even then had a 'reputation for good
ecnso and practical ability. An address pre
pared by him , at the Instigation of a com
mittee , soon confirmed the general opinion
of his power. Without knowing its author
Jefferson said It was thu production of the
finest pen In America. The address gave to
flay at once an ascendency that he never
lost. Ho had done one of thu best things of
his life , and the honoi came early , so it was
advantageous In this we trace the lasting
influence of a youthful impression , which
cannot well bo obliterated , no matter what
or how marked the native bent may be Jay
never got cleai of the effects of that ad
dress , not even after ho was made chief
Justice. In gave him renown from Georgia
to the frontier of Canada as a young man
fit for foielgn controversy and the arbltra
meat of far-icaching questions It stamped
Jilm as a diplomat rather than as a judge ,
and later he became Identified with the ne
gotiation of treaties , notably one concluding
peace with Great Britain after the revolu
tion , and another of commercial character
bearing his name.
* In treating for peace , Jay spoke like the
representative of a government able to com
mand. U was Franklin's opinion that the
commission , given by King George to Mr
Oswald to treat with the United States ab
colonies 01 plantations was sufficient But
Jay , dlsicgardlng the attitude of England
l'"ranco ' and the American congress , Informed
the British foreign becietary , Mr. Town-
Bhcnd , that the United States would treat
on the basis of Independence or not at all.
In any other chaictei of negotiation ho
( would take no part. That was In Septem
ber , 1782. Oswald was Immediately author
ized to treat with the American commission-
era , and before the end of the next mou"
provisional articles wcro' subscribed to
Twelve years after , when Jay was on the
supreme bench , the tclatlons of this country
and Great Britain were assuming an aspect
of open hostility. Washington wished to
overt a war , and with the senate's npprova
cent Jay a special envoy to England. In five
months the famous Brltsh treaty which beats
Jay's name was concluded by him and Grcn-
Vllle. At homo It was hailed with denun
ciation and Jay was burned In effigy and ac
cused as a traitor. Hu had fallen from the
pinnacle ho had reached by his peace nego
tlatlon. Washington , however , appioved the
treaty and signed It. Now York , too , stoat
l > y Jay and elected him governor In his ab
ecncc , Washington then conferred the chle
justiceship on John Rutlcdgo , and In this
Hilled the measure ot his ambition. It was
a fatal .appointment.

was foreseen that If the monarchs of Httropo
oppressed this Insurrection America had but
i questionable security for her Independence.
t would bo natural for them to look at
ho origin of the evil and feel that thuir
ynastlcs were not safe while an example
) f liberty remained In the western hem-
sphere Marshall , with a grcnt many of his
lountrymen , was warmly attached to Trance ,
lut the policy ot Prance was to detach this
government from Its neutral posl'Ion
Marshall's part In the Trench-English con-
roversy was very decided Ho held , as Jay
tad defiantly done In the peace convention ,
hat the rulers of Cttropo should treat with
his government as a sovereign power , and
hat Its Independence wns menaced bj the
nordlnato Influence of Franco. On thla
olnt ho was hostile to the sentiment of his
tatc , nnd was denounced as the coadjutor
nd friend ot Hamilton. The antagonism
o Marshall compelled him to defend htm-
clf , and his defense made him the leader
f the federal party In Virginia. At this
crlod the Jay treaty was the subject of
ntversal discussion. Jay was assailed for
cgotlatlng It , the senate for ratlfjlng It
nd Washington for signing It. The nrgn-
icnt against the treaty was that It was ttn-
onstltutlonal. To combat this Marshall
tassed the full strength of his faculties
nd showed himself a man ot big propor-
on. At Washington's solicitation ho ran
or congress , but would not comply with
\dnms' request to go on the supreme bench
s an associate. At the first opportunity
Adams named him for chief justice , after
avlng given him both the War and State
epartmcnts.

edge ot South Carolina and Oliver Ells
worth of Connecticut. The Jay treaty was
lie complete undoing of Kutlcdgo. Ho vvns
t the tlmo of Its negotiation chief justice

Iko of the trcatj , Washington selected him
o succeed Jay. It was an oversight on the
iart of the president , and Htttledgo permlt-
ul his ambition to got the better of his
udtciousnevi. Ho accepted the appointment
nd took his seat without continuation. The

TANEY AS A L-AWYEH.
The year Marshall was made head of the
supreme court Tanej opened out as a law-
jer In Trederlck , Md He had studied for
: he bar , but prefprred politics to law. As a
ledcrallst he was , elected once to the legls-
ature , but two subsequci t defeats disheart
ened him , when he retuined to his law
practice. He tried for congress , too , but
without success As a young lawjer In
Frederick , with views free of the 'burden '
: hat comes with much study and learning ,
Tnney thought slavery was a blot on the
national character. This Is worth noting In
connection with hla Dred Scott decision. In
spite of his polltlial aspirations , he became
within a shoit time the first lawjcr of his
state , and went to Baltimore. As attorney
general in Jackson's cabinet ho was In
volved continually In the bitterest party
strife. And It was not a little surprising to
see that this was Tanej's right element ,
linked , his ambitious spirit looked out of a
meek countenance that was delusive. Ho
recalls Disraeli without his sneer. He has
little reputation as a statesman , though It
might have have been different had his
early aspirations been fruitful He seems
to have been drawn toward JacKson b > the
magnetism that Is In humanity. He had
found at list honest appreciation Jickson ,
rough and unlettered , was In need of Just
huch a man as Taney. Ho filled the bill
exactly. He was the only member of the
cabinet who stood with the president
against renewing the charter of the United

message. Taney was twice practically re
jected by the senate once as secretary of
the trcasurv and ngaln as associate Justice ,

Yesterday tra\cl on the railroads leading
nto Omaha broke all previous records The
ncomliiR visitors exceeded the number
brought In on any day during the State fair
of the two last jears. The wisdom of the
managers In dclavlng the festivities until
ho latter part of September , when they
could secure delightful autumnal -weather , Is
ilalnly evidenced by the size of the Incom-
tig crowds and Is proving a great boon to
he railroad companies.
A very conservative estimate of the num
> er of people brought Into Omaha between
! o'clock jeaterday morning and noon reaches
ho 5,000 mark. It Is estimated that over 3,000
of this number came Into the Union depot
at Tenth and Mason streets , while nearly
2,000 tame In at tht * Webster street station.
Tills estimate does not Include the hundreds
of State fair \lsltors who \\oro taken by
a number of railroads directly to the fair
grounds without coming Into the city. The
ravel was much greater during the afternoon
and last evening It was good , as a number of
roads run special trains within 200 miles to
enable spectators to witness the Ak-Sar-Ucn
larado and return homo Immediately after-
vard.
ALL CARS CROWDED.
There were thiee sections of the Union
'acillc's fast mail train No. 4 yesterda > morn-
ng. The first arrived at 10:15 : a m , carrying
en coaches and sleepers besides the baggage
and express cars. Each of the ten cars was
cntlicly lilted. All the seats were taken , and
he train agent said he almost had to climb
to the roof to secure all the tickets. This
yesterday morning. It was followed by two
suctions from the branches north and south of
Grand Island. The second carried seven
cars , partly filled. The third section was
! rom the StromsburB branch and consisted
of ten coachis all of which were well flllqd.
The Uurllngton's train from the \vest
arrived at 1) ) 35 a. in. , and consisted of five
coaches and four sleepers , all of which were
crowded with State fair visitors. The second
section followed at 11 o'clock , and Its five
coaches were fairly well filled. A portion
of the Burlington's travel from the west
was diverted fiom the main line at Deer-
field and sent directly to the State lair
grounds. The train from Lincoln at 11.40
liad nine cars all tilled.
The Rock Island brought In two special
trains from the west , one at 10-43 a in. and
the other at 2-10 p. m They were from
Hcllevllle , Talrburj , Lincoln and inter
mediate points nach consisted of seven
cars fairly well filled.

From the east the Incoming travel
v\as not neorlj so heavy as that from
the west All the morning trains from
Chicago were well filled , but not crowded
The Burlington had nine cais , the Northwest-
em and the Hock Islind seven. The Mil
waukee had four extra cars attached for
travel to the State fair.
The attendance at the State fair from the
east has so far been rather light , though
theie was quite a noticeable Improvement In
the travel from western Iowa yesterday.
The State fair trains did a good busi
ness. Both the Union Pacific from the Union
depot and ths Missouri Pacific from Webster
street station ran trains at Intervals of everj
thirty minutes and from the earliest trains
of the morning till noon they were filled
The Increase in travel from Council Bluffs
was very marked The Union Pa
cific's State fair trains started from
Council Bluffs , and from five to six
cars of each train wore occupied
by State fair visitors from across
the river. Most of the State fair trains were
of eight cars each , and some of the cars cir-
rl"d as high as sixty-five people. The service
was without a hitch excepting a trifling de-
ay to an castbound train at 11 o'clock , caused
by the derailment of a freight car on the
Clkhorn's tiacUs.
The railroads gave special attention to
return trains after the grand pageant ot
the Knights of Ak-Sar-Ben last evening
The Uock Island ran one special train from !
liore to Belleville at 7 o'clock last even'ag
tor those who did not care to remain to see
the paiade Another special ran to Kairbury
at 11 o'clock. Both of these trains stopped
at all Intermediate stations.
The Union Pacific ran a special train espe
cially for the evening's procession. It left
Columbus and made all stops between there
end Omaha It was a fast train , leaving
Columbus at 5 o'clock and arriving hero at
7 30 Returning it left here at 10 30 o'clock.
There was the regular evening service on
all railroads in addition to the extra trains.

Interruption of all through train service In
New Orleans and elsewhere In Louisiana by
the yellow fever plague , the "Sunset

after October 1 be run via the Union
Pacific system through Omaha , This route ,
it is currently reported , will he adhered to
until every trace of the yellow fever Is
banished from the Infected icglon of the
south ,
Iho matter was first reported among
Union Pacific officials here yesterday , and
was received with no great surprise , as some
change In the route of the "Sunset Limited"
has been expected should the yellow fever
continue unabated , Railroad men who canio
In from San Tranclsio yesterday afternoon
say that the chance Is seriously talked of
there , and unless the yellow fever should
dlo out wl'Mn the next few days they re
gard the nhango ns a certainty.
The Southern Pacific docs not run Its handsome -
some "Suiibet Llmitul' train during the
summer months , and It wll | not be placed In

southern California , Arl/o'ia , New Mexico ,

The Difference Between Good Looks
Fine feathers
do not make
fine birds. Showy linings
do not make fine clothes.
A great many cheap suits are just now mas
querading under gaudy linings like jackdaws
wearing peacock plumes , We don't handle them. We handle
nothing that is deceptive or make believe. We rely on the good
sense of our customers to know that fancy linings and little bits
of colored satin do not add much to the cost of a suit and noth
ing at nil to the wear. Satin lining is not worth much at whole
sale 15 cents a yard. Outside of its appearance it is very little
use , All of our suits are lined either with good worsted serge ,
solid Italian cloth , or good , honest "farmers'satin. . " The linings
are the least important part of our clothing. We put most of
the cost and all of the service into the fabrics. The Qfoodncss is
C" >
in the _ cloth not on the inside. As an instance of cjood suits we
offer today a magnificent fancy worsted made from three twist
threads at the low price of Eleven Dollars , There is no sham
about these suits. They are the equal of any eighteen dollar
suits in Omaha. The linings are good and plain.
