Not an Outrage to Justice.

Mr.. Hunt then called attention to the
fact that it was not until the next term of
court that the men filed their objections and
he asked when litigation would end if coun-
sci could come in at any time and allege
errors in the record. There was no reason,
he said, for the presence of the men in
the court. There is in the case a suggestion
that the two men are subjects of Great
Britain and Germany. Attorney General
Hunt said he was unable to find anything in
the treaties by which the case could be af-
fected. A foreigner stood on no better
ground than an American citizen.
General Butler-That is true.
In the course of this part of the argument,
Mr.. Hunt quoted from an utterance OF Gem
eral Butler to the effect that foreigners were
entitled to no greater consideration than
American citizens, and not so much "if they
did not behave themselves" and paid
compliment to his opponent by adding that
it was that spirit (which enables him to
measure diplomatic swords with Palmerson
and not come off second best in the conflict"
General Butler arose. and, thanking Mr..
Hunt, said: "What 1, shall ask the Court to
come to is that foreigners here have under
the treaties exactly the same rights that we
have, but that when the rights guaranteed
by treaty to a foreigner are brought in Ques-
tfon he is entitled to adjudication through
the courts of the United States, and there
fore that Federal question will come up

A Violation of Prisoners Rights.

Mr. Salomon argued that there was a viola
tion of the constitutional rights of prisoners
in not having them in court at the time OF
sentence, and likewise in refusing to show
the facts.
The Chief Justice suggested that the State
Supreme Court merely fixed the time for e1-
ecution.
Mr. Solomon asserted that the court did
more by reciting that the persons were pres
ent. He then made another point by affirm
ing that there was no authority by Whlcn
the Governor of the State could direct the
enforcement of his Communication of sentence.
The power of pardon and commutation were
conferred by law on the Governor, but there
was no manner provided by statute for en-
forcing imprisonment where ordered in
Communication of death sentence, and the
Governor in directing such imprisonment
had assumed a power not vested in him.
Justice Gray asked If there was anything
to show whether the prisoners had accepted
the Governors pardon.
Mr.. Salomon replied that there was
nothing whatever to show that Schuab had
accepted it,
Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1892-01-22

The Justice then asked if the result
would not be that the man would go free,
and that a Communication would amount to
an absolute pardon.
Mr. Solomon admitted this, but maintained
that though Communication might under the
Illinois law De ordered, no power existed to
enforce the imprisonment ordered.
Attorney General George Hunt, OF llli-
nois, followed Mr.. Solomon in behalf OF the
State of Illinois. He maintained that the
United States Supreme Court had no 5uris-
diction to pass upon the action of the
Supreme Court OF Illinois. The only alleged
error on the part of the Court whose Judg-
ment was sought to be reviewed was re-
fusal to amend it's record and show that
Fielden and Schwab were not bodily present
when the Judgment was rendered. This
Court had jurisdiction to review the final
resort OF several States only whenever
Federal question was involved. He SUBJ
mitted that no Federal questions was in
volved in the record, and that there was no
final judgment to be reviewed. There was
simply decision of the Supreme Court OF
the State of Illinois on q motion made SUBJ
seQuent to the entry of final Judgment in
the organic case. Moreover, the Supreme
Courts Judgment was not q condemna tion
of the parties, but simply refusal to inter-
fere with its own record.

THE FORSAKEN FARMHOUSE.

Against the wooded hills 1t stands
Ghost of a dead home, staring through
Its beacon light on wasted lands
Where old.time harvests grew.
Unplowed, unsowed, by scythe unshorn,
The poor forsaken farm fields lie,
Once rich and rife with golden corn
And pale green breadths of rye.
OF healthful herb and flower bereft,
The garden plot no housewife keeps
Through weeds and tangles only left
The snake, Its tenant, creeps.
A lilac spray, once blossomclad
Swaps bare before the empty rooms,
Beside the roofless porch sad,
Pathetic red rose blooms.
His track In mould and dust and drouth
On floor and hearth the squirrel leaves,
And in the ireless chimney's mouth
His web the spider weaves.
The leaning barn about to fall
Resounds no more on husking ewes;
No cattle low in yard or stall,
No thresher beats his sheaves.
So sad, so drear! 1t seems almost
Some haunting presence makes its sign;
That down yon shadowy lane some ghost
Might drive his spectral kline!

FRESH MEAT FOR FARMERS.

Some of the advantages of old-fash-
Toned farmers lives are not so common
among farmers of to-day as they once
were. One of these is having a taste of
fresh meat when desired, by killing a
sheep and perhaps changing with a
neighbor SO as to use the mutton while il
Is fresh. If circumstances do not favor
keeping sheep, the supply Of fresh meat
may be easily obtained by killing young
poultry once a week or ~oftener, and
sometimes varying it by killing a young
pig. Some farmers may object to this
last as Wasteful. After all, counting the
speculative value of the pig after it has
grown into a hog, its meat does not cost
any more than the city resident pays for
much poorer cuts from the butchers
shop. And on the farm the owner of
the pig can afford to take it for his own
use at what it has cost him, taking his
profit in the extra enjoyment he will get
from eating fresh young pig rather than
salted pork from the barrel. It is by in
dnIging in occasional luxuries of this
Kind that farmers show to others the.ad-
vantages of their position, and induce
their children and others to appreciate
the possibilities OF a farmers life

it is here. The cabbage plant has a

when once broken it will never penetrat

vrerrAB1Es AND FRUIT FOR HOMES.

Too many farmers neglect to supply
4heir W tables with any suitable va
riety Of vegetables and fruit. By a small
outlay Of money and labor every farmer
can keep his table supplied with a sue
tcession of fresh vegetables through the
whole season. Spinach planted as soon
nd the weather is suitable will furnish
the finest greens before other vegetables
come on. but if it had been planted in
the fall it would have come into its use
this month, under ordinary conditions.
Then radishes. lettuce, cucumbers, to-
matoes, peas, beans, sweet corn, summer
souashes, beets, melons and turban
souashes will furnish a welcome and
wholesome addition to the farmers fare
throughout the season. If, in addition
TO these there are a few roots of rhu-
barb, a bed of asparagus bed OF straw
berries and a small collection of small
fruits, a farmer may live IL luxury and
