Judges wers declared to be "scandal ously underpaid" and the delays In set tling lawsuits in this country were at tributed to cumbersome methods of pro cedure rather than to Judges by various speakers today, ' ; "Most of the criticism which has started the movement for ths recall of Judges re sults from dissatisfaction in the slow ways In which cases get through the courts," said Charles Blood im it h of Kan sas, "Thl tardiness is due to modes of procedure and not to the judges. It is our belief that recall of judges Is not neoes sary to remedy the causes which have started the restlessness of the public over Judicial procedure. Ths improvement will be and is being accomplished." "We should keep our Judges from temp tation," asserted Henry D. Estabrook of New Tork. "An occasional Judge ; is found wanting because all judges are human, I am Inclined to think that a judge should be permitted no patronage whatever, whereas We are forever thrust ing upon them powers of appointment be cause we want the assurance ot their great abilities and undoubted probity; There should, be no perquisites to , the judicial office, -but In lieu thereof We should pa? our judges salaries .worthy their position.

I V, V. Becker of Seattle,' secretary of the Pacific Coast Shippers' association, Identified on the Wltness'stand much cor respondence that passed between him and WUlard G. JIollls of "Minneapolis, secre tary of tho Northwestern Lumbermen's association, and A. L. Porter of Spokane, secretary of the Western Retail Lumber men's association. , Through this correspondence, which told of the shipment by various manufactur ers and wholesalers on the coast, of lum ber to unethical dealers and mall order houses in tho middle west, the govern ment sought to show that a oomplete line of communication was maintained be. tween Mr, Hollis and Mr. Pprter and the manufacturers. Shippers on the coast, It was brought out, were regularly ad vised by Mr, Becker through circular let ters of the standing of the .retailers In the mlddlo west Copies of these drcu. lars were introduced as evidenoe and were Identified by Mr, . Becker, Before Mr. Becker was sworn, Clark McKercher, counsel for the government, announced that the witness was not in volved in the case. Selling Consumer Fatal., Belling directly to a consumer brought about the ruin of the Western Washing ton Lumber company, which once did a thriving business in the middle west, ac cording " to the testimony of M. Ellas. Ellas and Frank S. Loeb organized the Western 'Washlngton company early in 1908 and it did a large wholesale business with line companies, Ellas said, until the middle of 1808, when It became known that the company had sold a oar of lumber to I. w. Trust, a consumer of Osceola,' la. Immediately following this, he said, it business with retailers dwindled rapidly, until early In lltlO it had entirely disap peared. As soon as it lost Its yard cus tomers it openly bid for contractors' trade, but was unable to retrieve its lost fortune, and in March, 1912, went into the" hands of a receiver, he said. Much correspondence was introduced be tween Mr. Ellas, Loeo and retail dealers of the middle west regarding the shipment to the Osceola consumer. A letter was read, written by Mr. Loeb to F. P. Becker, eeoretary of the Pacific Coast Shippers' association, in which it was alleged that the Western Washington Lumber com pany did not know tha car in question was to be delivered to a consumer. Admits Statements False. "Th statements In that letter were false," said Ellas. "We knew all the time that Trust was a consumer, but we tried to lie but of It. Fear prompted us to write that letter," Ellas said that he first learned that the trade generally was aware of the trans action with Trtst when- he received a 1 Clipping from the SoouW '-Detroit lumber journal, telUng of the deafc Tho dipping was sent by Ooorte E. Lang, the Minne apolis agent of the Western Washington company, and across the back was writ ten, "Cut these people out; they are no good," and signed "Flynn." said the witness. - Flynn, he explained, was con rected with the Bt. vAnthony Lumber company of 'Minneapolis, one of their best .'customers, i : ,';.;.'' ;.;.! j ; Answers Critics of Nation's Constitution MILWAUKEE,' Aug. 29,-Severe Crit icism of those who question the adequacy of the federal, constitution and of those "who seek to replace it with , policies dictated by, passing whims and fleeting emotions" ws made by United States Senator George Sutherland of Utah in an address , before the , American Bar association tonight Maintaining that the chief value of the constitution "Is in, its operation to prevent ill-considered and impulsive ac tion," Senator, Sutherland denounced tfo plan for recall of judicial decisions, which h said in effect would be "to render a judicial decision by, a show ot hands at the .POllS," :, : '"'i - ' ' A motion to urge President Taft and congress to increase the salaries of fede ral judges provoked heated debate and re sulted i? tabling the question.

Ulatory of the ClvH Wr - , 1 I '' ... Walter S. Jardine has a better notion of the productivity of the soil of No. braska than he ever had. He has In vented a plow for the purpose- of aiding the farmer to turn his soil Into dollars, and be owns a princely estate over in Iowa, where he has about tlOO.OOO invested, but ' it Is neither of these Institutions that has awakened him, A few years ago he bought some below-grade lots out in the west part of town, and his wife took a fancy to the location. So Walter ne gotiated with a grading contractor and had the waste from a couple of big ex cavations dumped onto the lots, making a fill of about twenty-five feet. Then he built a home and moved out there. Last spring the pride of the Jardine home, a boy of unusual enterprise, caught the gardening fever at school and asked his father's permission to plant a patch in the back yard. ."Go as far as you like," said Walter S., with that magnificent generosity that narks his dealings with other folks. "I'd like to plant some canteloupes." said the boy. "Fine!" exclaimed Walter, his paren tal heart swelling with pride, as he con templated tbe enterprise of his son. "Fine, and I'll give you a dollar apiece for all you' raise." ; . Walter watched, the boy prepare his garden patch on what he thought was a claybank, and watohed its progress. But not sharper than the boy, Sunday night the boy counted fifty-five promising can teloupes on five thrifty vines, and now W. S. is figuring with some unregeneratj to go out and rob the melon patch, so as to save him the penalty of not know ing that the soil around Omaha Is several hundred feet deep and fertile all the way down.

Key to the Situation-Bee Advertising. 7 This Why English Beauties Are So Fair? y '(From London Hearld.) . Ever since the discovery that merco llxed wax would absorb and remove a soiled complexion. Its use by ladles as' a substitute for toilet creams has grown rapidly. A perfect complexion: can be maintained indefinitely If this remarkable substance is used. Its beneflcient cleans ing, clearing and preservative action is quickly apparent, and ladles who have been paying as high as a guinea a jar for "special cream" from beauty spe cialists, soon recognize that mercollzed wax outranks them all. It has become so popular that It can be obtained at all chemist shops in the British Isles. Amer ican druggists also have great demand for it, in original one-ounce packages. The favorite way of using is t apply it, like cold cream,, before retiring, washing It off in the morning. ' The saxollte lotion for wrinkles and the facial contour has also become extremely' popular. . .One ounce powdered saxollte is dissolved In one-halt pint witch hazel. Bathing the face In this has a splendid effect. ' ' ' ' ' AMUSEMENTS. LAKE iAflAWA "40 Minutes from. Omaha."
