A Parliamentary Judge.

In one of the townships near Chicago,
the people once elected as Justice of
Peace man known for his strict appH-
thing possible. Among his first cases
was one of trifiing importance-an as
sault. Epler and Delew, two Chicago
lawyers who knew the Justices pecu-
Harfty, represented the defendant, and
a man by the name of Smith the prose
cution. Both sides announced they
were ready for trial. Just as the court
was about to proceed, Mr.. Epler arose
and said: 'If your honor please, move
that this case be dismissed" 'I second
the motion" quickly put in Mr.. Delew.
1T is moved and seconded that the
case be dismissed" was put by the
court. But, your honor" quickly in
terrupted Mr.. Smith, with great sur
prise at such procedure. "Mr. Smith,
this court has presided over meetings
before, and is thoroughly familiar with
parliamentary procedure-it needs no
assistance from you in this matter"
"But, your honor 'I shall fine you
for contempt of court, Mr.. Smith, If you
continue to disturb this court The
court then put the question again, add
ing: ''All in favor of the motion will
rise" Epier and Delew and the pris-
oner arose. 'Those opposed will rise"
Smith and the prosecutor arose. 'The
motion is carried by vote of three to
two, and the case is dismissed" de-
clared the Justice-Argonaut

it all in all, a settlement is the policy
which would mark the course that pri-
vate interests would pursue and which
it seems will be adopted by Congress.
Where other lines of railroads have
found themselves in difficulties, a set
tlement has been made by which junior
securities have been obliged to protect
themselves by paying heavy assess
ments. 1t was not a pleasant thing to
do, but it was dictated by the neces-
sity of the situation Viewing the his
tory of the Central and Union Pacific
there is much to arouse antagonsm to
the policy proposed by any refunding
scheme. On the other hand examin-
ing the situation from the standpoint
of policy dictated by the necessities
of the situation as we find it, it seems
that there is but little else to do. Much
of the opposition to the proposals arises
from the fact that past legislation has
not secured results thought to be we'll
secured. If with the public educated
as to what is required in the way of
making it certain that the Government
will get what it expects to get by the
passage of a refunding bill, its interests
cannot be properly protected, it is
equally apparent that additional legis-
lation which will be made imperative
in the event that no funding bill passes,
may be subjected to the same criticism.
We believe. however, that the disposi-
tion of Congress is to secure a final
settlement on the terms ultimately
adopted and it has the disposition and
ability to protect the Government, so
that every dollar of principal and in
terest now due from the Union and
Central Pacific roads will be repaid.

feared the worst.
He sat there in his little fat, sur
rounded by his family-all except one.
That one was the darling Of them all.
Little Blue Eyed Boy, they called
him.
A pet name merely.
His real name was William and the
iris of his eyes was azure in hue. Thus
the combination in nomenclature.
Little Blue-Eyed Boy had gone forth
to buy some supplies for the table, while
the others waited.
He had been absent two minutes.
And when his father spoke it seemed
as though he said he feared the worst.
He explained Immediately afterward
that bologna was all right for lunch

now openly Offering to buy the Philip
pines to prevent Russian possession
For it must be understood that Spain
does not look upon the Philippine pos
sessions with the regard she has for
Cuba The latter is a part and parcel
of the kingdom, gem in the crown,
but the other islands are mere colonial
dependencies, to part with which would
not be matter of much concern. These
colonies afford her no revenue, are
sources of great cost and endless trouble
and are therefore proper objects Of
barter. Once let Russia get a foothold
in the Philippine Islands and she will
be in a position in Western waters to
make Japan tremble.
1T occasions no surprise, therefore, to
hear that both Japanese and Russian
ironclads have been dispatched to Phil
ippine waters. 1t really looks as if
Spain is about to place these islands
upon the auction block. If SO, the bid
ding promises to be of the liveliest
character imaginable, with but two bid
ders in the field, and each very jealous
OF the other, and one of them disposed
to cripple its opponent at any cost
But none of these latter considera-
tlons should operate i'm the United
States to induce us to provoke difficulty
with Spain Our sympathies go out to
the 1nsurrectionists in Cuba as a peo-
pie, but the question of active inter
ference is one of such gravity and in
VoIVes SO many important considera-
tlons, that 1T is we'll to take counsel of
our judgment rather than of our svm-
path1es before we take any step calcu-
lated to precipitate trouble.

Appointment Of Deputy Secretary Of State

If all the acts of the new secretary
of State are to meet with approval as
general as that which greeted the an
nouncement of his determination to
appoint Hon. Sumner j. Chadbourne
his deputy it will be safe to con-
gratulate him in advance upon his ad-
ministration. There is nothing in the
nature of an experiment connected
with the appointment to that place of
a gentleman, who served with distin-
guished ability for four years as the
head of the State department when
three years was the customary peri
cd of service in that Office. Then be-
ginning in 1881 he served fourteen
years as deputy secretary of State.
Surely it may be said of him long ex-
perience made him sage" During all
that time no one. who had occasion to
transact business with him in an Of

making friends and keeping them,
though to those who know him it Is
not surprising, that one SO helpful
thoughtful of others and generous to
degree should after 35 years of public
service in various capacities have a
circle of friends in this State as large
probably and certainly as staunch, as
that of any man. Perhaps nothing
better illustrates the popularity he has
always enjoyed and the deserving
character of all his work than the fact
that he held the office of clerk of the
House for eight consecutive years at
d time when there were annual sessions
and retained the office of. deputy sec
rotary OF State for fourteen consecu-
tive years. The Journal Joins in con-
graduating both Mr.. Chadbourne and
Mr.. Boyd upon the appointment.
