The New Test,

The imperialpapers have adopt
ed a new STANDARD of loyalty,
patriotism and even of learning
and courtesy. Ii a man favors
conquestS and the acquisition of
barbarous elements the most hct-
erogeneous to free institutions
he is in the estimation of this
new and imperial learning clear,
lucid and original. He is loyal,
patriotic, learned ard courteous.
But If he honestly thinks he sees
danger and disaster in this wide
departure from those theories to
which the country is indebted
for its past safety and prosperity,
and expresses his fears, he is dis
loyal, noisy, irrational and puer-
lie in the eyes of this immaculate
and intallible Imperialism.
This arrogance and Intolerance
has reached SO high a point that
it is no wonder that when the
foremost statesman in all the
land shows as it has never been
done before how commercial COM
plications and retaliations will
grow out of an attempt to con-
troll the Philippine Islands his
savings should be characterized
as wanting in originality, weak,
and unworthy of public consid-
Grafton, and as being the result
of a senility which but pleases
the enemies of the country.
Attempts at systematic crea-
ton of a sentiment that tends to
hurry the country off into foreign
conquests, wars, slaughter, dis
ease and death, and that will
inevitably deplete the wealth
and the best blood of the coun-
try may be encouraged by weak
and impudent attempts to per,
sonally belittle distinguished men
who have the manhood to raise
a warning voice in time of dan,
ger, and to laud every other in.
significant utterance, but they
will scarcely prevail with candid
men. When men are driven from
arguments in which they have
entrenched themselves and at
tempt to cover their retreat by
railery, ridicule and contempt o
the person ofeminent and respect
able men it will at least set The
people to thinking.

The Administration Interpretation

According to advices from
Washington the administration
is inclined to regard the success
of the republicans in so many
States in the recent elections as
a mandate from the people in the
direction Of acknowledgements.
If this view is correct we fear
that the wish is parent Of the in
depreciation of the verdict. In
some sections Imperialism, as it
has come to be known, is un-
questionably a dominant senti-
ment with republicans, but we
believe that the republicans of the
country as a whole will hesitate
to demand the annexation of the
whole Philippine group, and their
verdict with reference to silver
which was made the overshadOw-
ing issue by the democrats in the
great majority of States can not
be tortured into a demand for
the absorption by the United
States of 1900 or so islands on
the opposite side of the globe.
1t should be borne in mind that
there is a vast difference so far as
America is concerned between the
expulsion of the Spanish from the
Philippines, and the annexation
of those islands. The great ma
jority of the American people fa-
vor the former; while many who
favor the former are unalterably
opposed to annexation. The adj
ministration, if it desires to be
exact, will therefore distinguish
between the two positions.
1t is also worth while to note
where the republicans gained and
where they lost in the recent cleo.

A Curious Town.

The most curious town in England is
Northwich. There is not u straight
street, or, in fact, straight house, in
the place. Every part of it has the ap-
pearance of having recently suffered
from the visitations of au earthquake.
Northwich, rs every one knows, is the
center Of the salt industry. On nearly
all sides Of the town are big salt works,
with their engines pumping hundreds
of thousands Of gallons of brine every
week. At depth of some 200 or 800
feet are immense subterranean lakes of
brine, and as the contents of these are
pumped and pumped away the upper
crust Of earth is correspoudingly weak
ened, and the result is All occasional
subsistence. These subsidences have u

iugs, which are drawn all ways, giving
the town an upside down appearance. -

Side Judges are Useful.

The attack on the time honored
system allowing each county to
elect Judges to sit in county court
has again proved a failure.
There is an inclination somehow
to belittle or ridicule the services
of those judges. The subject is
treated as though they had moth
ing to do and were of no use in
connection with the court, while
the greater part of their duties
are in fact incidental to the
court. The very foundation of
the principles on which jurors are
drawn from the "vicinage" is
that they would be more likely
to know about the surroundings
and conditions of subjects to be
considered in court. That very
reason applies to the judges of
the court. Besides, the nearer
the courts are kept to the people
and the more easy access the
people have to the courts, and
the more closely they are related
the more confidence is inspired
and the people feel more contented
with the administration of JUS
tice. There are classes of cases
too, involving questions of fact
in which the assistant Judges
participate, and of which they
are as capable Of Judging as the
presiding judge. 1t is of no infre.
auent occurrence that the assist,
ant judges are consulted with
reference to what was done at q
previous term as to local condi
tions relating to some matter be
fore the court, and many Other
things pertaining to the locality
with which they are familiar. 1
rs true they are not versed in thu
1ntricacies of the law like the pre-
siding judge, but there are NAM
things, matters of discretion
judgment, like the sentence O
criminals, continuance of cases
and fixing the terms of continu
.ance, in which they are almos
invariably consulted, and abou
which they are amply qualified t.
judge There have been instance
in which the presiding Judge ha
been in a minority and the as
'sistant judges have sometime
rightfully prevailed. They hav
certain duties that they perform
not directly on the bench. Thi
