ana all.embracing. 10 do or permit
evil under the specious plea that good
may follow is the criminal sophism of
all the ages. From it have sprung
the wars and prosecutions, the crimes
and follies that have darkened the his

comes evil.
The United States bought
the sovereignty of the Sulu
Islands from Spain, and if it
is eXpedient to m. Ike a treaty

should it not also be eXpe-
dient to make a treaty with
Aguinaldo and save blood
shed. Mr.. Mckinley is cer-
tainly in n S istent. The
American papers are UNI
necessarily harsh. however,
in their criticisms. 1t is in
tinitely better to make a treaty
with the Sultan than to create
another war with a savage
people. Let peaceable civil
ization take it's course. This
going into Mysteries about
slavery and polygamy being
tolerated under the flag is
premature. The question of
constitutionality can be de-
cided later and, in time, these
people may be persuaded to
give up polygamy, and the
Government is rich enough
to buy the freedom of the
slaves at $50 a head.

MANS RIGHT TO DIE.


NEW YORK, Sept. 1.-THE address Of
Judge Simeon E. Baldwin, of the Connecti-
cut Supreme Court, at the annual session
of the American Association of Social
Science, in Saratoga, on Monday, created
much discussion among professional men,
who are almost a unit in condemning the
judges theory. One woman doctor agrees
with him.
Judge Baldwin advanced this argument:
Man has a natural right to die. When
he is mortally i'll 1t is wrong for doctors
and nurses to prolong his life. 1t should
be made illegal
Some of the comments made on Judge
Badwin's statements were: DIR. Eloise i.
Church, 81 fully agree with Judge Baldwin
that man has natural right To die. and the
idea that he should be legally entitled to
exercise that right is mine precisely. But
this will never come to pass. Why? Because
gasp for IL is then, when life is at its
lowest ebb and death momentarily immi-
nent. that the medical profession reaps its
richest harvest
DR.. NJ. j. Lewis, medical examiner, Amer
lean Union Life Insurance Company:
There Is no warrant In law. religion or
morals for Judge Baldwin's contention. The
question Is an old one, but the decision Of
the profession, as we'll as OF the laity, has
views Physicians would become execution
ers instead of healers."
DIR. John F. Erdmann: 81 prefer TO hold
on to life as long as possible, and to save

of Judge Baldwin"

WEEPING OVER TWO GRAVES


CHICAGO, Sept. 1.-TWO bodies, each
represented to be that of Ernest Baltzer.
a member Of the First Illinois Volunteers.
who died in Cuba, have, for months, lain
side by side in Graceland Cemetery here
The first body was brought back by local
undertaken and Mrs. Philippine Baltzer.
mother of the soldier, mourned for him as
her son. Then the government commission
brought back another one and they said 1t,
too, was her boy. Distracted by grief, but
by government order restrained from
opening the caskets to attempt an identifi-
cation herself Mrs. Baltzer had the second
body laid in an adjoining grave and she
strewed flowers and wept over both mounds,
half crazed by anxiety to know which
really contained the remains Of her soldier
son.
To make the situation more pathetic and
more complicated Mrs. Baltzer recently re-
ceived word that the body of another
Ernst Baltzer' had been brought back
from Cuba and inferred in the National
Cemetery at Arlington Heights. Mrs. Bait
ger to-day visited the graves in Graceland
with Miss Mabel Minion, of New Orleans.
Miss Minion was in charge OF the fever
hospital at Santiago. She attended Baltzer
on his death bed and dug with her own
hands the trench In which he was buried.
She declared that bottle which would
identify the remains was inferred with him.
This bottle has not been found. Mrs. Bait
ger to-day declared that she would have
the two graves here opened.

Laurel Review.
1t is pretty clear to intelligent people that
Senator Beveridge had a higher aim in
making personal study of the Philippine
question than merely posing as the hero
of a sensation by sprinkling his homeward
path with notes of his observations to be
distorted and misrepresented to mislead the
people. 1t was not an occasion for sham
heroism, and Mr.. Beveridge has too high
an estimate of his own relations to the
State and the Nation to be sham hero.
We do not know any more about the con-
illusions the new Indiana senator has
reached as result of his visit to the East
than the opposition press knows, but We
are confident that what he says when he
deems it necessary to speak will come from
the heart of an American patriot.-Brook-

The National Encampment of the Grand
Army of the Republic has turned deaf
ear to the organization of pension claim
agents, which has been devotng months
to working up an assault upon the COM
missioner OF pensions. The clique, with its
organs, has met with deserved castiga-
ton by the adoption of report Of the
committee on pensions containing no criti-
cism of Commissioner Evans, but simply
asking for the restoration of a rule wnich
Is believed to be harsh in its operation. Last
year the National Encampment, without
adequate consideration, adopted the claim
agents resolution criticisng the commits
sioner of pensions and practically asking
his removal This action was taken upon the
representation of a coterie of claim agents
that had organized for the purpose. This
year, by direction of the commander-in-
chief. the pension committee investigated
the charges in connection with an exam
ination of the work of the Pension Bureau.
That committee made report which pre-
scented the facts and exposed the falsehoods
which a class Of alleged soldiers papers
have been publishing. The trouble with the
commissioner has been that he would not
allow those men to run the bureau. Very
naturally, these agents and their organs
have been able to deceive thousands Of
pensioners, creating dissatisfaction among
them. The report which so influenced the
National Encampment should be sent out
to veterans all over the country, to the end
that they NAV read and discover that they
have been imposed upon.
The upanimous action Of the National En-
campment should be considered to be final:
and being final, the few men who have been
aiding In stirring up discomfort should cease
their efforts. The pension laws are liberal.
but as laws they must be obeyed. Claims
must be sustained by evidence. and If the
evidence is not such as the rules recognize
they should be rejected. There appear to
be veterans who cannot see why every
claim should not be allowed.
1t has been the practice of number
of uniformed persons and claim agents to
denounce those who have stood UP for a
fair enforcement of the pension laws as
enemies of the old soldier. The Journal has
received several anonymous letters Of
that character. To these no response has
been made, but now that the unanimous
decision of the National Encampment has
been in accord with the opinions expressed
by the Journal 1t is content to be regarded
as an enemy with the assembled patriotism
and wisdom Of the Grand Army Of the Re-
prhlgo
