AuF wlEDERseHEN.

Say not "Goodby." The sounds have all re-
gret.
/ cannot loose your hand with such word
our ways part here, and yet, O love. and yet
cannot leave you till my soul has heard
The charm to bring me TO your side again,
The dear "Auf wiedorsehen."
Say not "Adieu." The word has hidden pain
Within its foreign accents sweet and clear
That haunts my heart with sad ard hopeless
strain
And pleads with duty Just to lingor here.
Smile courage in my eyes, o Love. and then
Whisper "Auf wiedcrschen."
Say not Farewell. If thou wouid'st have il

Tho word, like wan hand, waves Us apart
cannot leave, MON iieblins-wih not go
Until you whisper, lying on my heart.

JOHN DOE AND RICHARD ROE
TyFO Prominent Legal Names and Their
Origin In England.

TJFO Prominent Legal Names aud Their
Origin In England.
The houses Of York and Lancaster
began and ended with strife within a
decade, Napoleon and Wellington pur-
sued mutual carnage for only few
brief years, but two belligerents, fa-
nous in legal circles, seem to have been
predestined for eternal combat and dis
sensiOns.
They are John Doe and Richard Roe
Twin brothers. creatures OF the creaI
tive British legal mind, these two men
Of mystery have puzzled the astute
minds Of judges and lawyers and have
caused jurios to hang in tho jury room
while attempting to pour oil on the
troubled waters Of litigation.
Under the reign of Edward III, when
the patient and plodding Saxon was
picking his way out of feudal gloom, 9
new form Of legal procedure was enact
ed by parliament for his relief.
John Bulls love Of dominion ovel
land is only equaled by his desire td
secure dominion over the high seas, and
in the past, as it is now true of tha
present, whenever he got a hold, 4
leasehold, copyhold Of any kind upoI
a spot Of earth, great or small, hf
would cling to it as though the spoi
was q hallowed heirloom. To reposses'
the Englishman of his real estate
wrongfully withheld from him a wrii
of ejecment was invented.
Hitherto his means Of redress lay
through a writ of right or a writ of en-
try-writs wrapped III cobweb Of maz
and technicalities This writ Of eject
ment was the mother of John Doe an'
Richard Roe. These sons, twin boys
were to her as Punch and Judy are t.
wandering mountebanks, and under til
name Of one she gathered all the com
plants Of the plaintiff and under tn
name OF the other all the defenses Of th'
defendant, and thus two armies NEE
in legal form, while hoodwinked justice
in wig and gown, shakes the dicebox.
Slowly the power of monarchy wan
ed and the power of the people grew il
strength in old England. The materna
colonies left the maternal roof and sc
up housekeeping, but both in Englan'
and America these two brothers. Johi

THE COMPUTATION OF THE SEN
TENCES.

We gravely fear that the English
people are losing their instinct for gov
erning. The chorus of praise with
which the commutation of the raiders
sentences has been received seems TO
us bad omen. We have not only no
vindictive feeling towards DR.. jameson
and his fellow-prisoners, but when the
very light sentences originally passed
on them by the court were made pub

by so doing with the Republican party
and a great majority OF the Democrats,
who believe i'm the old principle, "That
to the victors belong the spoils." He
has been consistent in this respect,
whether wise or not, and he has gained
credit for 1t. Then is it probable that,
to crafty personal spite, he will do as
some OF his Washington friends ex-
pect him to do in this respect? 1t is
plain he cannot do so with any degree
of consistency.
People who hold public office,
as well as those occupying ordinary
business positions, do not show their
wisdom by openly defying their super
iors, and there are no doubt some men
in the Washington departments who
are acting very foolishly in this re-
spect. A man has a right to his prin-
ciples and to vote as he pleases, but he
has not one TO personally abuse a SUI
perior under whom he holds office.
Anyone's common sense should teach
him this, and we venture to say that
no one will be turned out of Office for
thinking as he pleases and voting for
Bryan and Sewall. Neither do we be-
lieye that the president will belittle
himself in order to punish those often
sive partisans who do not seem to COM
prehend the courtesies OF life.

The house committee on labor dc.
cided to report fayorably the Erdmau
bill for arbitration between the car.
riers engaged in interstate commerce
and their employees.
The question Of reforming the fee
system for United states district alto
neys and marshals occasion much
debate.
Allen, populist Of Nebraska, attacked
the high salaries proposed and the
manner In which these salaries were
put through the senate. He declared
that Offices Of district attorneys were
given frequently in payment Of politi.
cal debts instead of requiring high
degree Of legal talent the places some.
times went to ashystsrs'' who could not
earn . living out Of Office.
George, democrat OF Mississippi, at.
tackled the entire policy OF giving high
salaries and showed that governors and
attorney generals OF states received
less by halt than the bill proposed al
lowing to federal district attorneys. !.
AllenAlso criticised the provisions al
lowing the attorney general to designate
the number of deputy marshals. HE
spoke against "a horde of Office hold
ers." Under Buchanan the govern
ment spent S5O,OOO,OOO annually and
now 1t is $500, OOOO 600. In that time the
population had doubled but the ex-
penses had increased tenfold. Officers
were thrusting their hands into the
treasury and by hook and by crook,
mainly by crook, seeking to increase
their salaries. The purpose of this
provision was to add to the offices con.
trolled by the executive Office.
Hoar responded warmly that the
senate could not waste its time inves-
tigating IN detail the number of deputy
marshals in each of the seventy seven
districts of the United States. II It
did it would become laughing stock.
II the government could not trust the
attorney general with this duty then
the American government had better
shut up shop and apply to some popu-
list club to carry on its affairs.
After an extended debate the sala-
ries for district attorneys and marshals
were agreed to as reported with few
minor changes.
