WASHINGTON I ETTER.
Judje Swayne to Be Impeached Sen
tor Overman s Member of Soioot la
qulry Salisbury Public Building.
From our own Gorrpmdtit
House, of Representatives,
Washington, D. C.
December 17. For he first time
ii more thao seventy years the House
p i ,., ,,,, -.--i, ,j ,
! of Rep'csenUltlves this week "Oted to
lupeach a Federal judge. He U
Judge Charles Swayne. of the north
trn district of Florida. There are
itleven distinct counts against him
and while all the judiciary com
mittee, to whuin the resolution of
impeachment was referred lusi
spring, do not agree that all the
ch urges have been sustained by the
evidence, they did agree that there
was enough evidence against him to
demand his impeachment, and eon
uequeutly they brought in a nnani
mous report in favor of such action
This report was adopted by the
House by a very large mujoritv. He
id charged with not living iu his dis
trict, though the law spmiticly sayk
that a judge who shall fail to do so
dlialljbe guilty of a "high niisdeiru-uti
nr." He id charged with being
tvranical, having in a number of in
stances fined and impriitoticd men
through personal malice. While thr
Jacksonville, Tampa and Key West
Kuilroad was in the hands of a re
ceiver appointed by Judge Swayne,
the judge si-enis to have considered
.he road h's private property. He
md a private cur, supplied with
,)ortor, cook, foods and '"liquids," at
n s service, and went hither and
thither according to bis on sweet
Mill, aud all at the expense of the
Ditukrupt rail loud, tie had this car
ent to Delewarr on oue occasioa to
wry binididf and family back ti
r'lorida, ami likewise took advantage
of it for a pleasure trip to California,
liut oue oo"nt upon which every
neinberof the committee agreed he
-hotild be impeached was that be
'las defrauded the government by
tlways certifying that his necessa;,
'Xpenses in attending the courts that,
lie was required to attend outside his
liatrict, were the very maximum
Allien the law allows; that is, ten
lullars per day, whereas bis actual
xpeutes were proven to be not more
bau four to five dollars. In this
ay he had been robbing the govern
tient of semetbing like $1,000 per
ear.
The action of the 1I)um so far is
dimply to vote that Judge Swayne
ihould be impeached; a committee
will now prepare lb formal charges
which shall be presented to the Sen
tte, and it id probable that some of
hose in the original lesolution will
e dropped, and it is ale piobable
that some new charges will be add
d. Then the Senate, "sitting as a
high oourt of i upeachinent," shall
mswer the question of the judge's;
uilt of the charge of "high crimes
md misdemeanors."
Senator Oveiman. who is a mem
lier of the committee of the Senate
vhich is investigating the case of
senator Smoot, says ftie hearings
have taken on greater interest than
ver recently. They are now p'obing
into the very inmost secrets of Mor-
tiouism. The penalties attached to
Tome of their iron-clad oaths are
hideous to think of. Borne question
the propriety of Congress investigat
ing this question at all; they say it is
n infringement of religious libery.
But the questiou seems te be about
this: Is this organization of which
Senator Smoot is a member, and a
managing member at that (he being
n' of the apostles) disloyal antagon
istic to the civil government? Ami
if so, ihould a man who has placed
his allegiance to the civil govern
ment in subordination to that with
which be has hound himnelf to this
opposing orgaoizttion, is a man who
occupies a position like that fit to be
i member of the legislative council
of that governmeat to which he pro
fesses only a secondary allegiance?
Tbeie is gond probability that the
Salisbury publin bnilding appropria
tion will be secured during this ses
sion, but there isn't much shew for
the other North Catoliua towns that
are asking for buildings before next
)ear, at least. 0. B.

Thus the little weak cbools; with

is only a matter of n little while un
til they will have passed away, aud
in heir place will bo found well

in the primary grades and then pass

means the diiectien of the mind of

The Reform School Again.
At a meeting of the state pvisen
board lust week it was sngg.wted by
one of the members that a half of
the snrplus, $100,000 cash, that the
tate prison has to its credit in the
treasmy be devoted te the conjunc
tion of a reformatory for yonng
criminals. While taking no staud at
the present time, either for oragaiust
such action, The Morning Post de
sires te make a suggestion iu further
anoe ol the reform school idea,
which it most certainly favors.
The suggestion we have to make is
that instead of going ahead and
stabliehing a reform school, the
Legislature shall pass a comprehen
sive juvenile court law, which will
not require an appropriation, but
whose effective execntion will accom
plish a large share of the resnlts ex
pected to be seen red through a re
form school; and at the same time
provide for a commission of three
xperte to be appointed by the gov
ernor, or named by the Legislature,
as that body may elect, who shall
serve without pay, but have necessary
expenses provided for, who shall ex
amine into the whole subject and re
port to the next general assombjy a
bill that shall provide a complete
plan for an industrial sohaol to care
for and train vicious youngsters
basing this bill upon the personal
examination into the equipment,
aws, etc., ef ether states, to the end
that profiting by ths experiense else
where we may establish an institu
tion that shall be the model for the
whole country. Morning Post.

The dir. ttois of the State Hospi
tala for the insane have adopted
th- reports of a special committee ns
to improvements, this committee be-
ing a joint one, representing both
th(j j, und ftt Moj
ganton. Superintendent McKee of
the Raleigh hospital urges treutnieut
of the iinsane on what is known as
the colony plan, that is the division
of the patients into little colonies or
groups to occupy cottages, the latter
te be scattered here and there on the
land of the hospital.
The llaleigh hospital for the in
!..: has now only 170 acres of laud
and needs much more. It ought to
have a thonsand, and will ask the
Legislature to protide for so much,
in order to carry out the plau of
having scattered buildings for colo
nies of the insane, who of course do
a great deal of farm and garden
work, it being highly heuefJcial to
them. The patients have done
great deal of such work on the pres
ent farm, which of course is much
too small. The directors of the
hospi al ask the Legislature for an
annual appropriation of $75,0(10 for
maintenance of patients, etc., thie
being a small increase uver the pres
ent appropriation. They ak for a
special appropriation of $80,000 to
cever tbe cost of land and of build
