Has Great Power- The president of the United States has the power to remove a postmaster without hearing and with out the consent of the senate which confirms his appointment This is the conclusion of the supreme court of the United States and it is of unusual im portance. 1 - * The late President Woodrow Wilson, removed Prank 8. Myers as postmaster at Portland, Ore., and the latter brought suit to recover back pay for the period of his appointment, claiming he was re moved from office without hearing and without the consent of the senate. - It is the conclusion of the supreme court tliat the 1867 tenure of office-act, passed to prevent the president from removing certain postmasters, is unconstitutional. The court was not unanimous in its decision, which was written by a former presi dent of the United States, Chief Justice Taft. Minority members of the court hold the decis ions to be revolutionary in character and places in jeopardy even* appointee of the president, not only )>ostinasters, bait those who are serving on govern ment I wards mid commissions as well us holding various federal offices. While the power of a president is great, it seems very doubtful if the constitution conveys to the nation’s chief executive the power to remove appointees without cause and without hearing, par ticularly that class where the consent of the senate is necessary to confirm the oppointment. The supreme court of the United States, how ever, takes quite a different view and its decision must stand as the law of the land. Under it a president lias in his hands a great power which, if used improperly, could and would do greut harm to the country. Be patient.

This latent ini pay roll would provide money to be spent in Ashland 365 days in the year. It would matter little what the weather might be, what the local demand for the product was, or any other con ditions that might interefere ordinarily with pay polls, and perhaps the« finest thing about this is, that it would not require very much money to put it over, it would not require a solicitation of funds, from business houses, it would not involve a stock selling campaign, but it would necessitate some hard work on the part of those who are interested in see ing Ashland grow. This pay roll is the poultry industry. Those who know, have said repeatedly ih at Ashland presents the best natural resources for poultry raising and its resultant egg production, on the coast. The granite in the soil, the ability to grow your qwn feed, are both contributing factors to making this a positive fact. In California, southern California in particular can be found large projects devoted entirely to poultry. Acres of ground have been subdivided into poultry ranches. It is claimed that independence can be attained on five acres aud a lot of other things are held out to the prospective poultryman.
