The tropical medicine department of
the University college, Liverpool, will
put into the field this summer party
to investigate malaria. The expedition
will go to Sierra Leone in August and
will be headed by Major Ronald Ross,
]. M S., who, on June IL, inaugurated a
course of lectures ON tropical medicine,
at the medical school of the University
college. AS the malaria season is al it's
height during this time in the region of
Sierra Leone, it is hoped that valuable
dition. and Major Ross has hopes of
proving his theory that malaria is caus-
ed by the bites of a certain species of
mosquito Following the methods used
in his Indian experiments, the first
problem 10 be solved is which species OF
MOSQUITOES is capable of bearing mala
ria, and then by filling up their breed
ing places find out if the malaria in a
given district can be suppressed. In
Germany also the question of the treat
n1ent and determination of malaria Is
attracting no small amount of attention
and an Imperial School for the Study of
Tropical Diseases has been established
al the suggestion of Prof, Koch. This
will be located at Hamburg, where pa
tients can be landed directly from the
steamers instead of at Berlin, as first
,,ronosed The institution will include
a hospital equipped to receive thirty pa
tients.

A learned pundit Of India, Raja silva
prasad, thus explains the aversion of
the followers Of Jainism, one of the
many Indian religions, to interfering
with the existence of any living thing:
We endeavor to avoid even green vege-
tables, under the idea that cutting the
plant may hurt it. Our diet, as far as
possible Is dry vegetable food We
would not needlessly pick leaf from a
tree, lest the tree should possibly feel
pain. That plants are not unconscious
but share the attributes of man, is
maintained in the Jain scriptures. AS
the nature of man, it is held, is to be
born and to grow old, so is the nature
of the plant; as the one needs food, so
does the other; as the one falls sick
when damaged, so does the other; as
the one is not eternal, SO the other is
not eternal; as the one has reason, so
the other has reason. This the Jain
commentators amplify by remarking
that the plants observe the seasons and
sprout at the proper time; the seed al
ways grows upward, and so on; all
which would not happen if the plants
had no knowledge of the things about
them.

Is it not worthy of note that Bryan
and his followers of the democratic
sheepfold should accept so fully the
leadership of certain New England
college professors and recluses of pitt
fully narrow horizons in their foolish
and futile campaign for Aguinsldo and
free trade? These degenerate repre-
sentatives of once great and honor
able congregation pride themselves
upon the breadth and honest frankness
of their western and southern ideas,
and yet they must needs look to timid
and circumscribed New England for
guidance. Happily for the democratic
party the surprise and disgust of many
of it's one-time adherents are tempered
largely by amusement.

the city would appeal to their respec-
tive governments for protection,-and
such governments would respond to
the call with alacrity. Then the pres
ent contest in the islands would be car
ried on between foreign governments
against Aguinsldo, and such govern
ments would then assume the present
position of the United States in the
contest. The result would be obvious:
The foreign powers united would speed
lily crush Aeuinaldo-and would not
halt at the cry of Criminal Aggres-
sion," from political utopiaEs at home,
ettber-and then proceed to establish
monarchical government over the
islands, and then all hopes of liberty
for the Filipinos would be perpetually
foreclosed. Moreover, the United
States would be accused before the
world of abandoning great moral
cause. of perfdy and dishonor, and of
Withdrawing its protection over peo-
pie to whom it is bound by every prin-
ciple of justice and decency, to protect.
Foreign powers, eager for an
opening in the orient, will demand that
affairs in the Philippines be settled in
accordance with the well defined prin-
ciples which regulate the conduct OF
nations of the first rank. Such powers
would never look on while the natives
fought out the contest for themselves.
The intercession of three great powers,
England, France, and Russia, in the
strife between Greece and Turkey, in
1849, and the recent adjustment of sf-
fairs in Samoa by the tripartie ar
rangement between the United States,
Great Britain, and Germany, furnish
Instructive precedepts in this respect.
Thus it will be we'll for US to bear in
mind that If our government fails to
settle the question in the Philippines
in accordance with the principles
which regulate the affairs of the great
natiC ms, those nations will settle the
natter for themselves,-and in accord
ance with their Own political tenets.
In such an event, the United States
would miss golden opportunity, not
only of liberatiug the Filipinos, but
also of securing a foothold in the
orient, for commercial and strategeic
purposes.

LAW is supposed to represent the
sense of the majority, formally ex-
pressed. Unfortunately much of the
legislation of today does not answer to
such definition. However, it is safe
to say that one of two things will hap
pen to such products of legislation as
do not conform to the common sense of
the majority. Either they will not
stand long on the statute books, Or,
standing, they will not be enforced. 1t
is useless to multiply laws in the belief
that they will of themselves accom-
plish reform. Many laws which re-
present but the crudely expressed
thought of minority will work
considerable damage to certain inter-
ests before their effects can be
provided against; but these laws are
certain to be enforced unfairly, and no
law which is incapable of strict, literal
enforcement is worthy to stand. Con-
situations are common sense crystaliz-
ed. They are not meant to obstruct
progress but to curb rashness and tenn
per extreme radicalism. Under our
system of government, law must fol-
low, not lead, social and industrial
change. If some of these fundamental
principles are kept in mind in the dis
cussion of the trust question much err
ror can be avoided and false reasoning
detected. Take, for instance, the con-
ception of the true province of compe- |
tltion In trade. Until a decade or
less ago the familiar aeage |
"Competition is the life of
trade" was universally admitted to be
the guiding principle of the business
world. This principle embodied in law
truly represented the common sense of
the IL ljori.v. But with the tremendous
growth in Industrial activity and the
tendency to carry competi-
tion to extreme limits, there has come
a change in popular opinion concern
Ing the effect of competition. There
are times indeed when com petit ton
may be the death of trade, and working
men and operators alike, recognizing
this fact, have in not a few cases re-
allied that in restricting cOmpeti-
ton lay their only hope of in
dustrial safety. Sometimes en-
ployers and workingmen have met
the question together aud have
in the efforts to maintain
q fair margin OF safety. But more Of
ten capitalists, operators, and en-
ployers of various classes have found it
necessary to restrict competition
among themselves, while the working
man have been com PEELED to organize
trades unions and declarations for their
own protection. not against their en-
oloyers but against each other. 1t will
,ot be necessary to illustrate in detail
,he declaration that excessive compe-
;ition has produced such great evils
hat the movement of society is decid
eddy towards restricting competition

and promoting cooperation. But
it must be clear that any legisla-
ton designed to destroy all
com binations of capital or of indivi-
duals must be productive OF more
harm than good. Moreover such Ie-
gislation cannot have the sanction OF
the majority, and hence will be i'm
possible to enforce strictly and impair
italy. Such legislation is typified in
the recently enacted Texas antitrust
law. The Texas law may be used as
club to prosecute certain prescribed
concerns, but it IS safe to say, first,
that no attempt will ever be made to
enforce the law to the letter, and, sec
ond, that certain provisions of it are
not only contrary to state and nation
al constitutions but also Incompatible
with the natural rights of man.

The True AmerIc rs.

ITHACA. y. Y. June 2O.-Governo,
Roosevelt today attended the class
day exercises of the class of 80 in
Cornell Armory. The students receiy
ed him with cheers. In his address tc
the graduates the Governor referred Z,
statements recently made by several
men who had amassed great fortunes
TO the effect that collegiate education
is useless in the world of today He
attacked their position vehem-ntly
and said: Our country could better
afford to lose all the men who have
arnassed millions than to lose one-halt
of its college-bred men. We can get
along without men of enormous
wealth, but not without men OF
brains
Governor Roosevelt then discussed
the desirability of college-bred men
making themselves active in the polit-
zeal world. He criticised the position
that because politics are corrupt good
men should shun them, holding that
the very fact that dishonesty and cor
ruption exist should be an incentive
to good men actively to participate
and remove the evils.
Speaking directly to the graduating
class, the Governor said they were no
better than the masses who had not
had their advantages except in so far
as they utilized their great advantages
and proved themselves so. Collegiate
did not make them too cul
tured and refined for the active work
of life; if it did, it would be a curse
rather than a blessing.

The portrait has been viewed by a
number of the intimate friends OF Mr..
Cooke. and by several persons inter
ested in art. Ii is a faithful likeness
and of most artistic execution and fin
ish. 1t shows good drawing, good
painting and good coloring. BY some
it is pronounced better than any por-
trait ever done here. 1t is certainly
far and away superior to most of the
work of the class that has been put
forth here by visiting artists from
time to time The author is the Jap
anese, Banko, a new arrival, who has
located here permanently. He is Of
the Orient by birth only. Banko was
educated in the United States. Like
Benjamin West. he was an artist from
childhood. For place of training he
selected the Pacific Coast, and was a
student of the best schools and fore
most masters for seven years. He
holds the coveted gold medal award OF
the San Francisco school, which gives
him equal rank with the many distin-
guished artists who have homes on
the Pacific Coast. Banko is modest.
an intelligent gentleman, whose artis-
tic temperament and true love for cul-
ture are noticeable at once. All who
meet him will be impressed with him
and will feel that he should be en-
couraged to remain in Honolulu as a
member OF the art circle so small. but
so genuinely valuable. He has pro-
duced his first portrait under great
difficulty. The face of the subject Sc
lected is one familiar to all in Homo
lulu, and it is reflected most faith
fully from the canvas. What the ar
fists call technique is shown in the
expression, and both the holiness ana
the blending of the chief colors are
remarkable for the skill exhibited.
The picture should be seen by all who
care for pictures.
