of an administrative board or commission
of any State.
Mayor Hylan of New York, told the
committee that he brought to them a
"mandate from the people," and he
explained the mandate to be a demand
for the judicial processes of "state
rights," as paramount to the Federal
system. Instances were cited by tht
m-nnnnpnts of the scheme to "reform"
r4 ?
the judiciary to show that the Federal
courts were accustomed to refuse the
common rights claimed by the common
people. Mayor Hylan's "mandate"
was rather ruthlessly dissected
before his own eyes, and the Congressmen
must have persuaded him that his
election was due to many political circumstances,
none of which could be
dignified as a "mandate" that affected
principles of Government involved
in practices in our Federal and State
courts.
There does not seem to be the least
Ikelihood that Congress will disturb
existing conditions of jurisdicton in
the Federal and State courts: and
there is no likelihood that the proposals
of the Bacharach bill, which
caused the hearings, will be accepted.
The matter is interesting principally
because the agitation of "state rights"
seems to be a good deal like coal
strikes?they show up every year.
COAL STRIKE TAKES ITS COURSE
Despite the fact that Congress has
had a committee investigating the coal
strike, and that in addition the Department
of Justce is busy with prose- j
cutions in relation to the industrial upheaval,
there is an apparent dispositon
in the National Capital to let the<'
coal strike take its course. As there
is neither coal shortage ' nor cold
weather to aggravate the situation, j
the public interest in the strike is not
acute outside of the regions in which
the mines are located. Some stimulus
has been given to the suggestion
that labor and arbitration boards be
set up by the Government, but in Congress
where measures along these
lines are pending, there appears to be
an inertia that promises very little for
the immediate success of any such,
legislatve methods. "Wacchful wait;ng"
appears to be the Government
policy with reference to the coal
strike

APPLE LEADS OTHER FRUITS.
'The king of fruits," as the apple has
been called, is by far the leading single
fruit value. The fresh apple crop of
1921, a poor year for apples and some
others of the orchard fruits, had an
estimated value of $163,000,000. Below
this value is $64,000,000 for oranges,
and in declining order are
peaches valued at $52,000,000, strawberries,
$41,000,000, grapes, excluding
grapes used for juice and raisins, $29,000,000,
plums and prunes $20,000,000,
pears $18,000,000, cranberries $6,400,000,
apricots $5,400,000, figs
$1,400,000, and, at the foot of the list
of individual fruits for which estimates
of value are made, are olvej
valued at $800,000.

The distance from which eagles
spy their prey is almost incredible.

History of Road Building.
It is said that the Carthaginians
were the first people to use a syster
of road paving, but the Romans
were the most famous road-makers.
The name of John Macadam will always
be associated with the roads
because he invented a form of road
now known as "tar-macadam." Wood-j
paving was first used in Russia and
introduced to Britian in 1836.

his age 26 years. He leaves to
mourn his death, wife, one child,

Dearest Jim. thou has left us.
And our loss we deeply feel;
But it's God that has bereft us.
He can all our sorrows heal.
Yet, again, we hope to meet thee.
When the day of life is fled.
When in heaven in joy to greet thee.
Where no farewell tears are shed.
\ ' '
Peaceful be thy silent slumber.
Peaceful in thy grave so low,
j Thou no more will join our number,
There no more our sorrows know. '
j Heaven now retains our treasure,
Earth the lonely casket keeps; , '
I And the sunbeams love to linger.
Where my sainted husband sleeps.
Precious Jim, thou has left us, ; :
''' Left us yes for evermore;
But we hope to meet our loved one,
j On that bright and happy shore.
