NEGRO OFFICERS.

President Mckinley gives five non
commissioned officers of the Twenty
fourth Regiment, colored, commissions
as second lieutenants in the Ninth
Immunes The effect. of this on the
colored people will be farreaching.
The story will reach the homes of the
colored people. 1t will be told in their
schools It will stimulate them to
study It is an admirable step in edu-
eating the race. These appointments
stand to the negro as the best evil
dence of the fixed purpose of the Fed
eraI Government to give him chance
to rise.
The white men of the country are
too valuable stuff to be put in the
ranks with a gun. 1t is wasteful and
wicked. Other things being equal, put
the men who can contribute the least
to the good of the commonwealth in
the ranks first. Look at Tommy At
kins' at 0mdurman. Life in the army
is education for the negro. He gains
and the country wastes less.

plead guilty, because you will proba-
ply be found guilty The lawyer gets
no fee for defense in such a case.
Moreover, the majority OF lawyers ac-
quire the fighting habit. They look for
flaws in the States proceedings. They
are justified in doing so, but it be
comes an overmastering habit, and
often drives them away from just
consideration of the whole case.
The case of Wilbur illustrates this
point. His lawyers ''gambled" with the
evidence, and the client must suffer for
seven years instead Of three. He was
guilty, and they knew it.
The very great majority of persons
charged with crime are convicted in
spite of liable defenses." The State
may occasionally be mistaken, in it's
prosecutions, but it has no interest in
.convicting the innocent The late
Judge Rollins of n. Y City conducted
criminal prosecutions in innumerable
cases, for eight years and, if We recoI-
lect rightly, never lost one of them.
He never prosecuted a case in which
there was reasonable doubt about con-
yiction. The lawyers for the criminals
We're always beaten. In three of the
celebrated murder cases of the East
ern States, notably that of the killing
of DR.. Parkman by Professor Webster
of Harvard College, the persons charg
ed with murder would have escaped
from the gallows if they had plead
guilty to a lesser crime. This is the
opinion of the old jurists. The law
yers 'gambled" with the evidence and
the clients neck paid the stake
At the same time it must be said
that lawyers are not popular and do
not attract business, who use common
sense too freely in advising clients
charged with crime. The person charg-
ed usually does not want justice, but
hopes to escape. He is ignorant and is
quite willing to gamble with the
chances. He prefers TO engage a law
yer who will tell him that he cannot
be convicted When he is convicted
and gets into prison, he then has an
opportunity to reflect on his error in
not securing a short sentence, by plead
ing guilty, as the man Wilbur viii re-
fleet.

SO little OF n definite nature has
been heard lately of cable for Hawaii
that something positive or tangible
may be expected to develop within a
very short time. The T7Imor that the
route between this point and San
Diego is impracticable has gone away
into thin air
From what can be learned OF the
utterances of the Galicians who have
been assigned to plantations on this
island they are a contingent inclined
to find fault and TO be discon. ented.

PLEADING IN CRIMINAL CASES.

Wilbur. the defaulting treasurer of
the city of San Francisco, has been
convicted, and is now under a SEN
tence of seven years service in the
State prison.
1t is said that if he had plead guilty
TO the charges against him. the SEN
tence would not have exceeded a period
of Jnreef years.
This man fell into the hands OF an
incompetent lawyer. a majority Of
criminals also fall into the hands of
incompetent lawyers. Incompetence
is used in its larger sense, the inabil-
ity or indisposition of the lawyer TO
justly advise his client. Every guilty
man naturally tries to escape from the
penalty inflicted by law for his Of
Tense. He knows that the State must
prove him guilty, and if it cannot make
that proof, he will be acquitted, even
if in fact he is guilty. His attorney is
bound, in the interests Of justice, and
by his professional honor, to see that
the State proves it's charges. The at
torney may be satisfied that his client
is guilty, but he is nevertheless bound
to see that the State proves it's case. 1t
is often said that such an administra-
ton of justice is wrong. But so long
as it is the supreme law of the land,
there must be no quarrel with it.
The disposition of the majority of
lawyers is to gamble" with their
cases, especially criminal cases. 1t is
not often that the lawyer, after hear
ing his client's story says to him: your
statement may be true, but you should

THE MILITARY HOSPITALS.

Although there are a number Of cases
of typhoid fever in the Military Hospi-
tai, it is no reason for fearing that it
will spread through the city. We are
abundantly protected from any serious
danger from it, We all know and APP
preciate the Intelligence, vigilance and
effective energy of the Board of Health
in sanitary matters. Experience and
study has made them so. Our cen
trail geographical position is an adj
mirable training school for experts in
fighting disease.
Wnlle the Beard OF Health does not
interfere with the management of the
Military Hospital, it is in constant
communication with their medical
staff, and is fully informed of the
actual condition of the progress Of the
disease.
Fortunately, the medical staff of the
hospitals is able, devoted TO the work
and tireless.
We learn, upon inquiry, that the Of
ficers of the Board of Health, COM
mend without reservation the intelli-
gent skill of the medical staff in the
management OF the hospitals. 1t is no
idle compliment when these eXacting
officers approve.
Few people understand the Difficult
ties to be overcome in establishing an
almost impromptu Military Hospital in
MI IN
the Mainland can command better ia
cilities for equipping it, through tele-
graph wire, railroads and daily mails.
In an emergency like that existing
here, with the hospitals full of sick
men, the Cross Roads town could in
stantly reach the medical headquarters
at Washington, and get those incisive
orders which cut red tape. Here, en-
tirely isolated, the medical staff is
more or less under those Anticipated
regulations that have aroused the in
dignation Of the American people, and
Will end in thorough reorganization

The use of enlisted men without

majority of cases, capacity for the du-

the extreme difficulty of properly con-
Quoting the hospitals. The supply OF
trained nurses here and on the Main
land is utterly inadequate to the need
The people, ignorant Of the fact, or
failing to appreciate it, that disease
does more effective work than Maxim
guns, have not through Congress, al
lowed the sick and dying soldiers the
attendance of trained nurses. So when
trained nurses are needed, and emer-
gencies through disease or war arise,
a grateful country cannot nurse the
sick, but fires three volleys over the
graves of the dead.
In all hospitals where many patients
are collected, an unpleasant feature OF
the management is the absolute neces-
sity of enforcing rules and regulations
internal and external. Unthinking
persons do not appreciate the vital ne
cessity of such rules. Kind friends OF
patients claim a certain privilege in
minisLering to them. Kindness may
become an act of cruelty. The natives
resented for many years the rule OF
the Board of Health, forbidding inter

minutes the American troops were thick
around the fort. The Spaniards were
completely surrounded. The main part
OF the army was between them on the
other three sides. They retired to the
buildings in the town and made a gall
liant defense, but from the time Gen.
eral Chaffee's men took the stone fort
they were lost troops to Spain. General
Lawton then ordered forward artillery
to shell the town at close range.
Although the road from the hill to
the edge of the town was nearly i'm
passible for artillery. Captain Capron
made the effort, and by o'clock had
his guns in position ready to open on
the town. For some time General Chat
fees brigade held its position behind
the stone fort, and then began the de-
scent toward the town, firing volleys
as they advanced. General Ludlow and
Colonel Miles pressed closely on the
other sides, and at nightfall the town
was practically in the hands of the
Americans.
