Special Dispatch 20 the Post-Inteligencer
TACOMA. May 25.-The street commit
tee OF the council spent part of today with
an old ''sore"-the reassessment of Pacific
avenue. between Seventeenth and Twenty
fifth streets. This portion of the avenue
was paved in 1888. and certain parts OF the
assessment have never been paid by the
property-owners. owing 10 legal entangle-
ments. All had been made ready for the
reassessment when at the last momen,
came new protests. based unon conten-
ton that has set the street committee
thinking.
This contention is that the contract price
for the work done in 1898 was exorbitant
and now the street committee IL preparing
to hear evidence on the subject. A mee--
ing for this purpose has been set for next
Wednesday. when witnesses for and
agains, will he heard.

The trial of Frank Chapman, who was
arrested in this city Sunday. May Is. by
Detective Michael Powers and Deputy
Sheriff Concannon. OF Pierce county. on
the charge OF numbering Louis Zarie.n
a saloon man. in Tacoma. Saturday morn
ing, May IA. promises TO be highly SEN
sational. A theory has been advanced
that a woman killed Zarielli.
The defense claims that the coroner's
jury practically exonerated Chapman. but
Notwithstanding this he was arrested
second time. the last being on a warrant
sworn out in the superior court. No pre-
iiminary examination was held. although
the first warrant was issued by justice
of the peace. II is probable that the de-
tense will maze use of this mixing up OF
affairs If it should so happen that the jury
decides against Chapman.
Geo, ge c. Israel who win defend Chap
man, has associated Melvin w. Winstoek
with him in the case. It can be stated
positively that the defense viii attempt
to show that Chapman's arrest is care
of mistaken identity. Chapman is conf
dent of proving an abb. He will bring
WITT esses. it is said, to prove that he was
a: home and in bed at the time OF he
shooting.
II is difficult to state at this time how
much of the sensational part OF the de-
Tense will be brought out In full. but At
torrey Israel when seen last evening by
limit aH
that there was truth In the story chat
the defense had a theory that Louis Zari-
ELL was shot and killed by a woman mas
querading as a man. and that this same
woman was the principal ias1igator In the
prosecution of Chapman.
TACOMA, MAY 25-Despite long and
strong argument Of Charles Chapman's at
tornev to bring about the Guashing OF the
informa ton against Chapman. charging
him with the murder OF Louis Zarieili. Judge
Kean today denied the motion 10 that end.
The contention of counsel was that mas
much as apman had been arrested on a
warrant issued from Justice SmaHey's
court he should have his preliminary hear
ing in that court.
Such course had been begun by the pros
ecution. but when the time came TO give
Chapman a hearing the prosecution moved
a dismissal of the case and had Chapman
rearrested on an information filed IN the
superior court. After denying the motion
of tho defendant the court arraigned Chap
man to plead and a formal plea of not gull
~ was entered. The court then set the
trial for June s.
There are TO be an unusually large num-
Der of witnesses to be heard for the state
in this case. the list to be subpoenaed hav-
ing already thirty-two names. The defense
will likewise call a long list of witnesses.

ANOTHER AUSTRALIAN IDEA.

Massachusetts, the first state to adept the Australian ballot system, has adopted anC.her neM thing which comes from the antipodes.- This is the Torrens system of land transfer, which also comes from Australia The sys- ten does away with all unceI eItainty 2s to real estate titlss and abclishes searches. Il establishes a registry of of title which makes the title absolute and incontestabis, the state baeomiDs 8 the guarantor. Under this plan the transfer Of real estate beccmes as sim pie and safe as the sale Of personal property and, unless the experience Of Massachusetts shall disclose some ob- jecticns which do nat yet applar, it is almost certain that it will not be ion s before this system will be adopted by all the states.-Buffalo Express

A BOOMERANG.

The platform adopted by the New 1crk democracy contained boomer ang in the form Of 3 denunciation oi the president for his appointments Of officers from civil life in the war against Spain. The platform was drawn in part to aid the return of Ed ward Murphy Jr., to the United States senate. Among the appointments thus criticised is that cf Edward Murphy, Jr., the son of Senator Murphy, who is HOW serving in the Philippines. Other prominent democrats besides Senator Murphy are involved in this denuncia- ten. A substantial list Of such ap- rointments bears the sponsorship Of men nigh in democratic councils The Republican some time ago in discuss ing the charges against the war depart ment made the point that the president in making his appointments to the army discriTninated neither against section nor party. Taking the only pes sible ground for wise and patriotic ckief magistrate. ne set out to make the volunteer army representative Of the whoIe country and of all the peo- pie. The words faction and section were branded and barred EI5n in all the walks of life, from the millionaire to the wage earner, were drawn upon, and men from nc walk shirked. All were glad to go, and all courageously f0cIz mt Iurty tocfthpr
 That all were equally meritorious and competent cannot, of course, be claimed The president was obliged , to be guided by the knowledge and recommendation Of others in a large majority Of eases. He depended upon the good faith Of men whom he knew, and they in turn presented to him for consideration men of their acGuain- tarce, and the president gave them commissions.
 The president is held responsible row for such shortcomings as the vol unteer officers have exhibited, even where they were not appointed by him at all, as in the case of regimental off cers selected by the governors Of the states, and even when the responsibil- fly for such individual appoir tmenta rests upon his partisan critics them selves, who have indoTsed and vcuchel for civilian applicants.

NOTES or THE DAY

One of the eldest souvenirs brought back by ;he volunteers from Santia go was that cffersi for sale by a soldier in New York the other day-twenty-eigh ght large volumes Of an cid French elcy- clopedia. Pay was small, ths soldier explained, and he had brought the books to town, hoping to realize a lia- tie r-ney on them. And he realized.
 The extent Of an empire which should embrace the Philippines is il lustrated by the experience Of mer- chant skipper of Castine, Me. He left Manila III sailing vessel for 8 voy- age around ~Ae cape, stopping a.e St. Helena. When he started there was no expectation Of war; when he reached Maine the war was over.

Mark Smith did his best to guy the advocates Of the initiative and rete-en- dun in his speech Saturday nigat. The people who have pinned their faith to this principle are thoroughly in earn est, and they have a voting strength which is not to be laughed at. The chances are that if Mr. Smith were 2 candidate he would try t. placate rather than affront these people. It is a safe bet that every believer in the in it;ative and referendum who heard Mir. Smith Saturday night or who read his speech in The Republican will make it his business to vote against Wilson on election day. That would b5' the sensi- ble way Of expressing dissatisfacti-1 with the democratic attitude.
