fO (Site gaUtj gustorinn. ASTOEIA. OREGON: SATURDAY- .MARCH l, 1?S T CHIEF JUSTICE. The chief justice of the supreme court of tho United States died yester1 daj. This is the end of earth to the incumbent of the highest position in this country. For the chief justice of the supreme court is the highest offi cer in the land. Cabinet officers, con gressmen, even presidents, wield pow er and distribute patronage for but a few brief years: then the popular breath that made them blows them into oblivion. The president himself leaves the White house to mingle with the people with only the simple prefix "Air." placed before his name, but the chief justice is chief justice for life, regardless of popular chances or changes or party warfare. Even in death history will always speak of him as '"The Chief Justice." He represents human ambition sat isfied: ho is Alexander without that monarch's grief: his is the triumph of the Roman general. The man who died yesterday was tho seventh chief justice. Only seven chief justices in ninety-nine years ! Longevity seems to bo one of the at tributes of the position. Many wrecks of empire have been thrown upon the shores of Time in ninety-nine years: wara have shaken our ceuntry: Amer ican liberty has more than onco been threatened; we havo passed through thrice- ninety-nine, years of ordinary annals, and through it all but seven chief justices havo, in turn, presided over the deliberations of justice, and, with pride be it said, That tho integri ty of any one of them has never been questioned. John Jay was tho first, serving from 1789 to 1795: John Rutledge tho se. ond, filling the office but n few brief menths: Oliver Ellsworth tho third, being on the bench five jcars, till 1501: the great John Marshall the fourth, occupying the position to which ho gave added dignity from 1801 to 183-1: Roger B. Taney, an equally great jurist, the nest, from 183G to 1861: Salmon V. Chase, from 1861 to 1673: and, lastly, Morrison R. Waitc, from" 1S7I to his death, yester day, in Washington. Tho supreme court of the United States is composed of eight associate justico3 and one chief justice. The eight aro Samuel F. Miller, of Iowa, appointed in 19G2; Stephen J. Field, of California, 1863; Jos. P. Bradley, of New Jersey, 1870; John M. Harlan, of Kontucky, 1877; Stanley Matthews, of Ohio, 1831; Horace Gray, of Massachu setts, 1831; Samuel Blatchford.of Now York, 18S2, and L. Q. C. Lamar, of Mississippi, 18SS. Each has a salary of 810,000 a year: the chief justice's sal ary is S10,500. The president has th appointing power. Till such time as president Cleve land selects chief justice Wnite-'s sue cessor, the deliberations of our nation al court of last resort will be presided over by the senior associate justice, Samuel F. Miller. Justice DrKiiAV, of New York, has had submitted to hira for decision a peculiar caso of separation of husband and wife. They were married in IIo boken, and after the ceremony they separated, going to their respective homes. They had agreed to keep the marriage a secret for five years, and if, at tho end of that time, they should agreo to live together, thej v. ere to be married over again. The defendant, when asked the reason for the mar riage and it being kept secret, replied that they onlj got married because they were afraid they would not be able in any other way to keep their promise to each other as to their fu ture Tho judge reservedhis decision. Nimr York, with a population and with wealth greater than that of Cana da, is hesitating about appropriating S1,000,000 to the enlargement and im provement of the Erie canal. In tho meantime Canada has appropriated co,ii,iu 10 ue expended on its ca nals this year. Canada b straining ev ery nerve to create such homo pros perity as will stop the largo emigra tion of her working people to tho Unit ed States. Tux campaign song has already begun to make its polka-dot appear ance in the pages of tho American press. Pretty soon the baleful straw- vote fiend will, break into publicity, and then the question of whether life is worth living will possess a new im portance. The physicians of the new emperor of Germany ars making strenuous ex ertions to prevent their royal patient from seeing any of his portraits as published in the American papers. All the patent medicines advertised in this paper, together with the choicest perfumery, aiitl toilet articles, etc-can be bought at the lowest prices, at J. W.

Ho was appointed chief justice of the supremo court of the United States from Ohio, by president Grant, in 187i PRESIDENTIAL EEORET-S. Washington, March 23. President Cleveland, wl en informed of the death of chief justice Waite, was very much shocked, although ho was aware that judge Waitc had been in bad health for sometime. Quito an intimacy had sprung up between tho two officials. Since the president's term began, tho latter has often been heard to express himself in terms of tho highest praise- of the chief jus tice's character and ability FUNERUi HONORS.
