j. Colviff, speakinc; for and in be
half of all of the lawyers of Jack
son and Josephine counties.
In a short address, filled with
I -amotion, and deeply revealing the true
manliness of the speaker, Judge
Hanna thanked his court officers and
attorneys for their services to him,
and accepted the gift, which will al
ways remain as a true treasure to
him and an heirloom to his family.
Judge H. K. Hnnna was elected
as district attorney for the first ju
dicial district of the state of Oregon,
comprising the counties of Jackson,
Josephine, Lake and Klamath, on
June 6, 1870, and served as such of
ficer from July 1, 1870, until June
), 1872; he was again elected to the
same office on Juno 1, 1874; re
elected on June 5, 187G, and served
intil the 1st day of July, 1878.
Upon October 26. 1878. he was.
by the governor of this state, ap-
Dinted as circuit judge of .the dis-
rict, and on November 4, 1878, took
the oath of office before Silas J.
)ay, then county judge of Jackson
bounty, Oregon. On June 7, 1880, he
vas elected to succeed himself, and
srved as circuit judge under this
ippointment and election from No
vember 4, 1878, until the date of his
oluntary retirement by resignation
m December 31, 1883.
At the general elections held on
une 6, 1892, June 0, 1898, and Juno
, 1904, he wag each time re-elected
s circuit judge of the first district,
lie distnet at the time of each elec-
ion comprising the said four coun
ies. He served continually as such
fficer from July 4, 1892, until and
minding the 31st day of January,
IttlO, on which, lust-named date his
ra of office terminated with his
?luutury retirement.
In thu resolutions prepared at that
Imo is found the follewing:
"Of him it can truthfully be said
he never at any time sought the
fioe to which he was elected; that
candidacy eaeh time was brought
lout and supported by the taxpay-
of his district, irrespective of
irty politics; there never was a
3e during his long tenure of office
it was not a personal financial
torifice for him to fill it. With his
n, recognized ability as a prnc-
pioner ho could ensily, in the prac-
30 of the profession which he has
rer honored, received much greater
lancial remuneration than thu snl-
of public office, but the honor
fidelity to his trust has earned
will repay him more for his years
i remitting toil than anything else
Ithin the Dower of man to bestow.
I "Thus, as was well sTSid by Gover
r Frank W. Benson, in accepting
resignation of this honored jurist,
people of the first district, time
time again, and irrespective of
Irty politics or civil faction, huvo
iced upon his work the stamp of
jr approval.

edgo of your committee, has any
judge been faced with more perplox
ing questions, involving life, liberty
and property, than have been in this
long career presented to this judge
for decision; and each time the duty,
however painful, has been performed
with fairness, wisdom and honest
purpose. . . .
Justice Moore of tho supreme court
wrote the committee as follows :
"Having learned that you are
chairman of a committeo appointed
to prepare suitable resolutions, ex
pressive of the esteem cherished for,
the confidence reposed in and the
good will entertained toward Hon. IF.
K. Hanna by the members of the
Southern Oregon bar, I trust you will
not consider it out of place for me
to call your attention to the regard
which the members of this court have
always had for the distinguished
judge, whose valuable services for
tho state have terminated with his
resignation.
"For more than 17 years I have
had frequent occasion carefully to
scrutinize bills of exceptions in ac
tions at law, and transcripts of evi
dence in suits in equity which have
been tried by Judge Hanna. An in
vestigation of such records necessar
ily leads to tho conclusion that in the
trial of causes he has been fair, fear
less, honest and able, and has made
for himself a record which, if he
leaves to his children no other leg
acy, they may well be proud of the
enduring fame which he has achieved,
"I regret to see him leave the
bench which has so long been honored
by his dignified appearance, his cour
teous bearing and his friendship for
officers, jurors, witnesses, clients
and attorneys who have appeared in
his court.
"I sincerely wish him the rest from
labor which his long and valuable
services merit. If you can, without
too much trouble, in a single sen
tence, place in your report what I
have so feebly expressed, you will
confer a great favor upon me. Yours
very truly,
(Signed.) FRANK A. MOORE.
The committee then concluded its
resolutions as follews:
"In these few words, our eminent
chief justice has said it all. These
words of praise could come from no
nigher authority, and the kind senti
ments expressed in his letter are
voiced by the entire roll of attorneys
in the four counties which Judge
Hanna has so well served, as well as
by tho taxpayers, the jurors and the
witnesses, comprising as they do the
citizenship of Southern Oregon.
"Judge Hanna at all times upheld
the true dignity of his high station,
and had at all times the highest re
gard for the ethics of our honored
profession.
"His court proceedings were not
threaded with nor made of the little
technicalities, but he ever maintained
that tho true aim of the lawyer and
court should be to promote substan
tial justice between roan and man.
"To now follow the advice of our
chief justice and writo it all in u
fainglo sentence, the people of the
state of Oregon sny to Judge nanua :
"'Well done, good and faithful
sorvant.' "
Judge Hanna leaves a wife, herself
an invalid, who arrived from Oak
land, Cal., four hours after the death
of her husbnnd; three sons, William
UNCLE SAM HAS
NEW EXPLOSIVE
World Should Not Be Startled If
Government Announces Soon That
New Gun, More Powerful Than Any
Other, Has Been Made.
NEW YORK, July 26. Within the
next few months the world should
not be startled it the United States
government gives out official word
that a cannon has been perfected that
shoots so powerfully and so far that
the heavy armament of other coun
tries will look like mere popguns.
General Fred D. Grant, who has
just arrived In New York to assume
command of the department of the
east, says such a gun has been per
fected and Is now undergoing final
trials at Governor's Island.
The United States, General Grant
says, has had an explosive under cov
er for a number of years which, It
fired from a gun strong enough to
withstand tho tremendous pressure,
would do the damage now done by a
dozen ordinary 12-lnchers. This gun,
he says, bus at last been perfected.
"Beyond doubt it is tho most won
derful gun In the world and the ex
plosive Is the most powerful," said
General Grant.
