of the west wall; the door was of ground
glass, and the frame-the only wood
about the wards of hard teak. No
pipe or drain opens into the ward, and
great care has been taken with the

Remarkable Surgical Operations.

Pre-eminent in the annals of modern
surgery is the recent removal from
the alimentary canal of hitherto sup
posed to be vital organ, the stomach;
an operation, the physiological import
ance OF which in it's successful result,
is universally commented upon by the
medical press. One form Of these COM
ments, it may be of interest to Q lay
man to know, assumes that the human
stomach Is not q vital organ, and it's
digestive capacity has been consider
ably overrated, while the fluids and
solids constituting an ordinary mixed
diet are really capable of complete
digestion and assimilation without the
aid of the human stomach. Further,
according to this, an actual gain in the
weight of the body may take place in
spite of the total absence of gastric act
ivity; typical vomiting may occur with
out stomach, and the general health
of person need not Immediately dete-
riorate on account of the removal Of
the stomach. Finally, it would seem
that the most important office of the
stomach is to act as a reservoir for the
reception, preliminary preparation and
propulsion of food and fluids, also full
filling useful purpose in regulating
the temperature of swallowed solids
and fluids: the chemical function of the
stomach may be completely and salts
factOrily performed by the other divis-
ions of the alimentsry canal.-New
York Tribune.

Second-The United States supreme
court is already overburdened with
business, and 1t could not possibly at
tend to the newlitigation likely to
come up from from the new ter
ritories.
Anybody who has lived in Arizona
and seen the demoralizipg effects
of legalized gambling will say with
me that it should not be permitted any
where in the United States.
The provisions againt forced labor
if necessary to break up the practices
now prevalent in those countries, and
which tends to degrade the in
dividdal, perpetuste the privileged
classes and retared the spirit of repub-
licanism in the masses.
Inequality of taxation on real estate
property is one of the great evils af-
fiicting Spanish American countries.
Large owners of wild lands enjoy their
property without paying any taxes or
very little, while improved real estate,
commerce, manufactures and indus
tries bear the burden of government.
This results in the perpetuation in q
few haods of immense estates, which,
remaining uncultivated, retard the
development of the country and the
increase of industry and population.

those islands is far more educated and
intelligent and better fitted for terri
tOrial government than were the New
MeXicans in 1S4S.
1t is difficult to account for the va
rious conditions that determine the
political or social characteristics of
human society at different periods, and
it is useless to speculate and try to ia
Thorn their causes. For practical re-
suits better guide is to take things
as they are, and build from the mate
rial we have as best we can: aud these
are the peculiar circumstances in
which the United States find them
selves at this juncture. We have these
Spanish American and Asistic cOun-
tries on our hands, and the question is,
How are we to rule them?
There are many, however, who
think that those islands can never be
repubicanized. OF these is the ven
cradle statesman Carl Schurz, who
says that people living in tropical eli
mates are incapable of free govern
ment. Yet Greece, Rome and Garth
age were republics, all located under
q torrid climate. Again there are
others who state that the hot blood of
the south is antagonistic to a popular
government, which, they argue, is pc

recited. The territory OF New Mex
leo is organized with a legislature to
make lawsuits judges and other officers
to carry them out, and peace is at once
established. No revolutions, no pro
nunciamentos, no fights. The United
States army is never called upon to
quell disturbance or sustain an Of
fetal in the performance Of his duty.
New Mexico, therefore, affords us an
object lesson in solving the problem
before US
But while the foundations of our and
OF the so-called Latin civilization are
the same, the rule of Spain in her col
onies differs politically, specially in
the criminal procedure, in the form
and practices peculiar to a tyrau nical
monarchy, which carries in its train
the sntithesis of republican govern
ment. The people in these islands
have had no share in making or car
rying out the laws: taxation has been
oppressive and all intended for the be-
uetit of the Spanish government: and
the criminal codes reek with cruelty
and injustice Our people, on the con-
trary, create their own government,
make their own laws, tax themselves
for their own benefit, while the crimi-
nal law is tempered with mercy and

culiarly adapted to the cool phlegmat-
ic northerner. To such philosophers
1 would point out that they are not sus-
tanned by history, ancient or modern,
since despotism has ever hourished in
the north, containing among its most
distinguished models Russia, Germany
and Austria. We note also in history
how nations, once republican and great
to the fullest extent, have fallen into
slavery and weakness: while others,
which were once despised like the
Arab or the wandering savage of Scan
dinavis, have risen to be great nations,
admired or feared by the powers of the
earth. There was time when ROma an
valor, resolute and indomitable, I'M
dismsyed by defeat or undiminished
by luxury and prosperity, stood like a
rock against the proves of Hannibal
and Pyrrhus. The present descend
ants of that republic. with the same
massive frames and high foreheads, fly
like pusillsnimous rabble before the
savages of Abyssinia, History, there
fore, proves that in the evolutions of

fenced about for the protection of the
individual.
The thralldom to which the island
ers have been submitted has natura ly
created in them hatred of authority
and law. OF course they are unfamil-
lar with our forms of self-government,
and taking in consideration the failure
that most Spanish colonies have made
in their attempts to set themselves up
as independent nations, only goes to
prove that If these islands are left to
themselves and given absolute indie
pendence, they will not succeed.
But the example / have given of
New Mexico sufficiently points out that
under the protection of the United
States, their establishment as a self
community is practicable:
that they can be inoculated with the
principles of our free institutions and
become in a comparative short period
good and free states of the Union. L

Cuba, and also in New Mexico, and can
say positively that the population of

tricted to males of over 81 years, who
can read and write the English or the
Spanish language.
The innovations suggested are i'm
portant from experience gathered in
Arizona and New Mexico. The pres
ent judges in those territories sit as
trial judges, and again act upon ap
peals from their own decisions, result
ing in labor lost, as it is a foregone
conclusion they will confirm tn cir SEN
fences given in the courts below, on
the principle that you tickle me and
tickle you.
The proposition for q special appeal
court at Washington for these
new territories rests upon two import
ant considerations. to wit:
First-As the forms and principles
of the civil law pre- vail in these islands
q special knowledge of that law will be
necessary in consid ering cases coming
from them. and the present supreme
court of the United States could not
possiblyIdo itself justice without ex-
traordinary preparation for it.

Third-County judges, to be appoint
ed by the governor and confirmed by
the legislature, to hold Office for stated
periods.
Fourth Ali laws of the territory
may be nullified by act of congress, but
shall stand until so nullifed.
Fifth-Appeals should be taken from
county courts to the territorial su-
preme court, and in civil cases invol-
wing more than $4,000, without costs
and interest. and in cases of felony, a
further appeal may be had to special
ly organized supreme court in Wash
inRton for these Spanish territories.
SiXth-There should be created at
Washington special court of appeals
from these new territories, composed
of three judges appointed by the pres
ident and confirmed by the senate.
Seventh-Spanish and English shall
be the official languages of the terrific
ries.
Eighth-The legislature shall deter
