THERE is general feeling Of uneRs-

our Justices of the supreme court are
entering upon dangerous ground
when they lay down the proposition
that the four per cent limit to a coun-

greater per cent Is necessary to meet

ment The LEADER has no disposi-
tion 10 critcise the judiciary, for Il
knows from experience and observa-
ton that the pu bile is too apt to go to
extremes in matters OF this sort, but
it frankly conft sses that to thus open
wide the door invites schemers to en-
largo the indebtedness and ruin towns
and cities, for il the four per cent
limit is not binding upon the counties
neither is it upon the towns and cities.
The LEADER cannot believe that any
justices Of the supreme court intended
any such sweeping decision, and that

BRrIN FfrORS RATiFrCArION or
THE TRFgTT

THE TREITT
Hon }. W Bryan thinks there ought
to be no opposition in the senate to
the ratification Of the treaty OF peace
with Spain. Col. Bryan is evidently
correct in his position. First, ratify
the treaty, aud then the ques ion Of
the disposition Of the Philippines and
other islands acquired by the United
States from Spain as the result OF the
war, will be a subject for congress to
discuss and settle
The fact that Col. Bryan favors the
ratification OF the treaty in no wise
commits him to the policy OF expan-
sion as advocated by the imperialists
II is not likely that there will be any
opposition from any senator to the
prompt ratification of the treaty, and
the great fight will be made In con-
gress later on when the subject Of the
status Of these acquisitions shall, as
it must at an early day, come before
that body for settlement.
