washington telegram to the Chicago
Record: 1t is queer what freaks the
memory takes. Judge Day was giving
his experience to friend while in Cam
ton recently, while he was resting be-
tween the close of his labors as secre-
tary Of state and the taking on of his
responsibilities as chairman Of the peace
commission. He spoke of the moment
uos scene at the white house when the
peace protocol was signed. It was a
great historical event, and the gentle
men who participated were afterward
photographed in a group. that their
faces might not be forgotten. After
the signatures had been attached to the
document that closed the war the Pres
ident made a brief lmpromptu address.
which was eloquently responded to by
the French ambassador.
Judge Day says that, by one Of those
mental phenomena for which we are not
responsible, while NJ. cambon was
speaking, his mind went back thirty
years to the time when he first met
President Mckinley. Both had recently
come to Canton to practice Law, and
were employed on opposite sides of
case that Involved $50. It was tried be-
fore country justice of the peace, in
a blacksmith shop, down in the SOUTH
east corner Of Stark county, and to save
expenses the, opposing counsel drove
there in the same vehicle. Thirty years
later they stood togther as the chief
figures in the diplomatic negotiations
that closed war, one as President and
the other as secretary Of state.

~. ~ CO. Decision.

The decision OF Judge PAUL, in grant
ing the writ of prohibition in the tax
cases, that the justices are without fur
lsdiction in the matter has the effect of
taking the entire matter out of the
hands Of the justices and nulllhes the
actions which have been taken. In eff
feet the decision holds that proceedings
must be taken, II taken at all. in the
criminal court and the complaints pre-
scented to the grand jury. An important
point in connection with the matter is
that the Informers who are prosecuting
for the reward there is in It are not en-
titled to the information fees to be
claimed by them until such indictments
are sustained on trial and the state Sc
cures the delinquent taxes. Under no
other circumstances could this fee or
"commIssion" be secured TO those who
have been industrlously engaged in the
work OF the prosecution as lnformers.
While the decision was rendered in but
one case, It practically affects all and
ends the prosecutions on the line pur-
sued. Few cases have been decided in
our courts which are so important or
which have attracted so much attention,
this being due to the large number of
citizens affected, the character of the
prosecutions undertaken, and the pur-
-,,sa N the prosecutors Whether or not
It will tend to the encouragement Of
further efforts on the part Of those who
have established the informing Industry
remains to he seen Certainly the de-
cislon OF the court establishes a situa-
tlon that will bring all prosecutions be-
fore the only proper court to hear them
and where they will be decided by
Jury Of citizens. Mr. Bird and his COM
pnnlons VIII be obliged to change their
whole manner OF proceeding At any rate

Of the President, and to the President

That school hoy Battle ship.

Marine News: Our readers win re-
member that very recently we pointed
out the folly of the "schoolboy battle
ship scheme" after two or three young
sters had interviewed the President Of
the United States and the mayors of
several cities and got their endorsement
OF the scheme. The latest report OF this
undertaking is from the Chicago Trib-
une which says:
1.-THE President and originator Of the
American Boy Battle Ship Association"
is in Cook county as "the guest OF To-
cal soap manufacturer" with whom he
is to sign a contract whereby "the bat
tie ship fund VIII derive an income from
soap wrappers" Evidently It is time
for the American Boy Battle Ship Asso-
citation to disband and return to school,
This is nothing more than should
have been expected OF a plan having
for its object the taxing OF school chill
dren to build battle ship to replace the
Maine. AS we previously said, the
Maine will be replaced. from the proper
source, the treasury of the United
States, through taxation In one form or
another, and that largely from the par
ents OF school children, the public which
supports the schools. All that the pub
lie asks Of the children is to attend
closely to their studies, not play hockey
and spend their pennies in the usual
way enjoyed by school children, in the
purchase OF fruit, candy and peanuts.
THEIR, fathers will see to II that the
matter of battle ships is not neglected.

The obstacles which the spaniards are
putting in the way of satisfactory evac-
uation terms at Havana has caused the
President to determine to send General
Lee. with his command, to Cuba before
the month is over. This may have the
effect Of hurrying up matters. 1t will
at least bring the Spanish commissioners
to their senses.

The New York yellow paper that adj
dressed an offer to the war investigating
committee. which is an official body APP
pointed by the President Of the United
States, to provide it with a han in the
city of Washington in which to hold its
meetings, has gone beyond the limits of
even yellow impertinence and audacIty.
The commission is holding its official
sessions under the instructions OF the
President, and in a room Of limited
capacity. This necessarily limits the
space for newspaper reporters. The yell
low paper proposes to take the matter
out of official hands and provide hall
for the commission, so it can have room
for its corps of stenographers and cor
respondents, and will not charge the
government cent for rent. The impu-
dence of the offer ought TO bar It from
any notice by the commission. The
United States government and its
agents are not in the business of aiding
yellow journals in their efforts to make
so grave an occasion as an official In
vestigatlon of official conduct an oppor-
tunity to advertise themselves.

Lees denunciatlon Of the reports in the
partisan press that he had been side
tracked by the President, and had been
deprived of the opportunity to distln-
guish himself, his assertion that he is in
the position originally intended and de-
sired by him. and that 1t was always
the purpose that he should go to Hava-
ma. The Register was one Of the papers
that used this canard. It will, more
over. doubtless give our contemporary
some trouble to denounce General Lee
as Whitewater" for asserting that
1t was "only natural at first that sup
piles should be delayed; that there was
mo complaint to make against the war
department and that he knew none of
his command who had;" that soldiers
are like school-boys-they sometimes
complain even when there is no occasion
for complaint"
Are these things proof that General
Lee, another hero of two wars. is
merely "a kind-hearted old soldier who
would not complain against anybody?"

LAND TRANSFER IN ENGLAND.
An Act of Parliament That Cuts
Much Costly Red
Tape.

From Golfers weekly.
Very little attention has been paid to the
fact that in the last session of parlia-
ment there was passed a land transfer act.
which is likely to render a greater service
to the mass of poor and well-to-do persons
IN England than any piece of legislation
since the passage of the corn laws. The
land transfer act contemplates the ulti-
mate registration of all titles to real prop
opposition of solicitors who are threatened
with the loss of most of their inordinate
prontS from conveyancing, the law is to be
applied tentatively. That is TO say. the

tnlrds or its members object, the order Is
not to take effect The privy council have
selected the county of London as the first
area wherein to apply the act. but it is not
yer certain that the county council will ac-
quiesce, as there is violent opposition TO the
proposal in view of the multitude of prop

transactions which will lave to be exam

This threat from the butchers leader was
too important for the government not to

and then begin again. After a few days,
when they have kept the police at double

one finds that the disorderly crowds are af-

"Conspuez" is a hard word to translate.
