In rebuttal Constable was permitted

day Of the robbery he searched the per-

because on that morning a number of
articles had been taken from rooms in
the Hallam House, and that then the

the absence Of a statement by the de-
fendant that the pistol was In his
trunk that day, it was improper to ask
the Constable how he came to make

[ A writ Of mandate to an officer will

filed that such defendant has been

with a copy of the complaint in the
manner provided by the Code.

THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.

The Presidents message will be due
early next week. We trust that there
will be no complaint this year about it's
length, nor the usual chatter about
.'boiling it down. and getting rid OF
"surplusage." In the very nature OF
things the message must be long. To
deal with the affairs of nation OF
100000 people, the relations OF the
country to other States of the world,
the questions involved by the acquisi-
tion, of Hawaii, Guam, Porto Rico and
the Philippines, and of the war in the
latter, to say nothing of the financial
and Cuban questions, the pending trea-
ties and the concerns of the army and
navy, will require a long message.
The people have right to have the
affairs of the nation treated by the
chief executive with such fullness as
will give them exact and full informa-
ton upon all questions relating to the
policy proposed for administration of
the affairs of the country, the cendi-
tions prevailing, legislation advised, our
relations with foreign States, the facts
concerning the pending war in the Phil
ippines, and so on to the end of the
chapter.
As this is nation of sovereigns, a
union not only OF States but Of men
who exercise sovereign powers, it is es-
sential that at least the thinking men
of the country shall have full express
sion from the Chief Executive on all
subjects in which the Individual SOW
ereign may be called upon to pass in
exercising his rights as a voter. This is
not nation ruled. We have no ruling
class that may be permitted to con-
ceal truth, or disguise policies. and pre-
serve secrecy as to propositions con-
corning the welfare of the people. Ours
is a Government by the governed, and
therefore it is necessary that a full ex-
position by the chief servant shall be
laid before the master.
The Presidents message will be long.
but it will be because of the magnitude
and number of subjects to be handled,
and their supreme Importance. The
good citizen will read it no matter how
long. He will esteem it his duty as well
as his privilege. He will not accept the
"boiled down" dictum Of any news
paper intelligence, nor be content with
headlines or q synopsis. He will read
and inform himself from the original
text, and himself be the judge whether
the President has been unduly' lengthy
in presenting the subjects upon which
every self-respecting citizen wishes to
be officially informed.
