M If DUE OF POLITICS 4 1 i ! I j j I Washington, Oct. 8. An unusual lt uatlon Kill fa e the supreme court of the United State When It convene Mon day for the term of 1910-11. With a docket literally overburdened with. Im portant caaea awaiting argument and de cision; the uprem tribunal wll prob ably b obliged to mark time for two months or more before It will be able to take up the .Important work; that Is before. It ' : .."-' " The necessity for delay arises from the lack or a full bench. At the pres ent time the court Is without a chief justice and without that dignitary ' it will be found almost Impossible to pro ceed with the important buslnesa ., at hand.'' it Is pointed out that the chief Justice; in addition to being the balance wheel between the other members of the court is required to pass individ ually upon many delicate and important motions, requiring a Ideep knowledge of the procedure-of the court The successor to the late Chief Jus tice Fuller, whoever may be the man chosen for that high honor, cannot take his seat tintil after he has been con firmed by, the senate, which will not be until December. . As a consequence the great cases now on the docket must necessarily be further . postponed untij late in December or more probably in January. By that time the new chief Justice will have been confirmed and the successor of Justice Moody, who has availed himself of the special act passed by congress and haa retired, will have been named and confirmed. Then there will bo a full bench and the most Important cases In the last half century can be heard. Thirty Ces for Atrwnt. ' Thirty caaes heard at the terra of the supreme - court which ended v last June must be reargued at the term about to begin, owing largely to the fact that there were hut seven members on the bench at the last term. Many of the cases will be heard at the same time in January. The 15 Involving thrconstl tutlonallty of the corporation tat were heard as one case, and doubtless will be so presented at the next meeting. Two Involve the queation whether the penalties for violating the 28 hour law for the transportation of livestock shall be determined by the Individual ship ments or by the train. Two suits on the docket .bring utf the dissolution of the tobacco corporation. Two more cases Involve the validity of Indictments for grazing; sheep on for est reservations without -f permission from the government; two others, the use of the waters of the Walker river in California and Nevada, and two more the enforcement of the prohibition laws of .Oklahoma In Interstate shipments. 1 Standard OH and Others. ' . Other cases to be reargued are the dissolution ault against the Standard OH company; the case Involving the constitutionality of the hours of service law for railroad employes, and that aris ing out of the use of the .water of the upper Gila river In Arisona for Irriga tion. Six cases argued remained with out action when the court adjourned for the - summer vacation. ; Of these, the only one of general interest was that lnvolvlcg the rights of forwarding agencies to demand carload rates from railroads. , . . . Kansas Depository xaw. ufio oi mo ursi question on wilier the court will probably pass will be the application for a review of litigation In the federal courts in Kansas over the ' constitutionality of the Kansas bank de pository guarantee law. The -United States circuit court for the district of Kansas, in an opinion handed down by Judge Pollock, ruled that the law was unconstitutional, as being In violation of the fourteenth amendment, and as un lawfully discriminating against national banks, and destroying their efficiency. , However, the United Bute's circuit court of appeals reversed the lower court and held the law to be constitutional. trad Sam Prominent as Litigant. -The United SUtes will, figure very largely In the business before the su preme court at Its coming term. Many of the cases in which its representatives appear are of general public Interest In addition to the corporation tax cases .and, the .Standard OU . and tobaeco cor poration Issues, there are the contro versy Involving alleged contempt by Sarapel Gomper and boycotts by the American Federation of Labor; i case under the railway rat law in which is brought up the question of the liability of an original carrier for loss In transit; th so called government Panama libel suit against the Press Publishing com pany of New York, and the suit against the Hlpoltte Egg company, the latter be ing forst to come up to the supreme court under the pure food' law.

"The rule requiring that, each exhibit except ' district displays, must be of fruit grown on , one orchard only, it not open to , broad construction," Mr. Rlc added "It mean just What it say. The reason for Insisting that an exhibit shall be taken from one or chard Is to make the competitions fair.

"Each carload exhibit must be accom panied by a sworn statement that the apples entered were grown on one or chard.

It gives th city council and the water board abso lute power to do as they please. They can project vast extensions to vacant districts and Issue bonds for th im mediate payment of the Improvement.

BAUDEH HOOD RIVER FARMER KILLED IN RUNAWAY POPULAR FIREMAN DIES Th application of the ' Oregon Elec trlo railroad for franchise on Salmon and Tenth streets to connect Its pres- nt termlnua with the United Railway Un was under discussion yesterday be fore the street' committee of the city council. The committee decided to send the frsnchlse to the executive board for valuation. - Xh Hill interests are very desirous of securing tht franchise, which would eventually give them di rect connectlons from Salem to the s?a. At yesterday's hearing . strong, peti tions were presented from residents of Salem, t McMihnvllle, Newberg. Forest Grove. HUlsboro and Albany, urging the city council to grant this franchise so that residents of the' Willamette valley may gain direct access to the business center of Portland. Th ' city council of Salem has also ' adopted resolutions urging that the franchise be granted. . More than 60 per cent, of the prop erty owners on Tenth treet have given their consent - to the granting of the franchise, but opposition has developed on Salmon street - , John F. Logan appeared before ; the street committee in behalf of , protest ing property owners on Salmon street and urged strongly that the t franchise should , not b granted. is He declared that the 4-alu of property on Salmon street would be seriously . Impaired if the-Oregon Electrlo were permitted to lay Its track there and he argued that the most feasible plan. would be for the railroad to go down Fourth street to Stark and thence west on th United Railways track. Mr. - Logan also suggested that th Oregon Electric could extend its line south on. Front . street to Stark and thane west to a connection with the United Railway, To this - suggestion strong objection was made by Judge C. H. Carey, general counsel for the Oregon Electric, who declared that it would be physically Impossible to build the line on' Stark street a that thor oughfare la already overcrowded. He contended that property on Salmon street would not be injured, but ben efited by the building of th Un. - Judge Carey declared that the Hill irfteresta are spending vast amounts of .money in and around Portland, and that It was of vital importance, not only to the railroad, but to the people of the Willamette valley that the fran chise should be granted. Since the business district la growing westward, he argued that Tenth and 8almon streets will soon be in the heart of the retail buslnesa section. - ' After hearing the arguments of Mr. Logan and Judge Carey the committee referred the ; franchise to- the executive board which will determine the amount to be paid to the city in th event that the franchise is granted.' .

ELECTION OFFICIALS DISREGARD LAV Judges and Clerks Fail to ' Credit Judicial Candidates With Votes Cast.'.
