At THE STATES EXPENSE.

There is a growing feeling of indigna-
ton throughout the state over the action
of the present administration in paying
without protest the fees and mileage OF
the witnesses for the prosecution in the
Welcome case. Had that gentleman
been on trial for a felony the situation
would be essentially different, as crime
cannot be punished without expense to
the But a verdict of guilty
in his case, if such a verdict be rendered,
mounts only to an inhibition which will
prevent him from practicing law in this
state. The verdict, whether it be for or
against the defendant, is of a persona!
character, affecting merely the reputa-
ton of the man on trial.
II guilty, the defendant will not be
called upon, as the result of this proceed
ing, to pay the penalty prescribed for a
great crime against the commonwealth;
if innocent, his acquittal does not imply
the immaculate purity of the legislative
assembly. In short, no purpose not per-
sonal to Mr.. Welcome himself, is served
by the trial, insofar as the administra
ton of justice is concerned. 1t is, there
fore, an outrage to compel the taxpayers
of this state to pay the expenses Of a
democratic quarrel. To say nothing of
| the time expended by the courts in thu
hearing of such cases, to which we appre-
| bend no objections can consistently be
| urged, as courts are treated for the pur-
pose of adjudicating the grievances of

Ludlow. U. s.. ", will be brought home.
General Brooke will probably be assigned

to succeed Major General Shafter, when
that officer is retired as a major general
in accordance with the recommendation
of Secretary Root
The decision of the president not to
divide Cuba into two departments, as
contemplated at one time, placing Gen
eral ludlow in command of the western
department and General Wood of the
eastern department.. undoubtedly is due
in part to the published interviews with
General Ludlow, indicating that that
officer was opposed to the views of the
administration with respect to Cuba and
his statements We're calculated, it was
| believed, to make the inhabitants of the
island dissatisfied under his administra
ton. General Wood was also opposed to
the establishment of a civil government
at this time, but he is very popular, not
only in the eastern section of the island.
but in the middle and western sections
as well, and prominent Cubans have ac-
quainted the president with their hope
that he will be appointed their governor.
General Wood will not Immediately
take command of the island. 1t is under
stood that he Will return TO MS post DIT
Santiago de Cuba the latter part of this
| week or early next week and remain
there Strengthening up the affairs of the
department preliminary to his transfer
to Havana. from which point he will adj
minister the affairs OF the entire island.
a conference was held between Secretary
Root and General Wood at which the
future of Cuba was carefully discussed
and it is assumed that the secretary COM
municated to General Wood the wishes of
tie administration respecting the policy
which he should inaugurate and pursue.
General Wood will continue to give the
Cubans as large a measure of sclf-goV-
ernment under the military adinlnlstra-
ton as they are able to control, lncreas-
ing their authority as they grow accus-
TONED to exercising the functions OF ad-
. miristering their own affairs, SO that

administration to the extent of nearly
three thousand dollars to pay the ex-
penses of the witnesses for the prosecu-
ton. With this as a precedent, are the
helpless citizens of this state to be Shout
dered with the expenses incident to the
perpetuation of the democratic feud?
The contending factions have an UNI
doubted right to air their grievances in
court. and shake their dirty political
linen before the public, just as fish
women might babble their vulgar lays
upon the shifting sands of the sea shore,
out when it comes to charging up the
expenses to the people it is quite another
thing. The amount paid out Of the state
treasury in the WELCOMED case--a case
! wherein a verdict would cut no figure in
protecting the public from a repetition of
the crimes alleged-would have paid the
| salary of q state officer for one year.
What are the taxpayers going to do
about it? Let them bear in mind the
| words of the old-time song which have
clleered many a weary heart-''There is a
future. O think God"

Opposition to Gen. Wood.

New York. Dec. S.-Discussiny the pro-
motion of General Wood to the rank of
major general, the Washington cores
jondent of the Herald says:
Though it has been apparent that the
president has further reward in store for
Genera Wood. there has been strong
feeling in the army in opposition ITO his
appointment as a ~brigadier general of the
regular service and this opposition has
undoubtedly caused the president to de-
termine to make General Wood a major
general of volunteers. and then place him
in command of the military division of
Cuba. so opposed are some officers OF
the service to General Woods advance
ment that it is expected a movement will
be inaugurated to prevent confirmation of
the nomination by the senate. 1t is
claimed by these men that the advance
ment of a captain of the medical corps to
the high rank of major general is calcu-
lated to subvert discipline, disturbing
existing methods of promotion and is apt
to make the younger officers devote more
attention to getting political pulls than
to perfecting themselves in their special
branches.
OF course General Woods appointment
as governor of Cuba will depend upon the
confirmation of the nomination. General
Brooke will complete a years service IN

TIE POWER or THE CLERK.

The objections made to the seating of
Roberts call to mind an incident of his
torical interest, which occurred in the
house of representatives sixty years ago.
and which is comparable only to some
of the stirring scenes which used to ami
mate the Legislature of Montana in the
early days Of statehood. 1t seems that
the titles of certain members from New
would determine the question of suprem-
acy in tho organization of the house be-
tween the wings and democrats. The
previous house had been controlled by
the Democrats, whereas the seating of
the New Jersey men would throw the
control # that body into the hands Of
the wings.
when The clerk Of the house called the
roll of members. as per the credentials
in hand, he refused to call the names Of
the parties in issue, alleging that it was
| to seats in that body. N~aU6acjous
piece Of business threw the house into
the utmost confusion, and for several
days matters were in a decidedly cha
otic condition. If the action OF the clerk
was allowed to stand it Woul rob the
wings Of the right to organize the house,
and indignation was at q white heat.
Finally, an adjournment was secured,
and when the house reassombled it
turned to the venerable John Quincy
Adams. who had previously served il
thu presidential chair, for relief.
MIR. Adams took the floor and scored
! the clerk in the most vigorous terms,
then ne u~pbraided the house for per-
hitting its servant to control 1T. anc
finally made a motion that the names q
the New Jersey members be. called
When asked who would put the question
in default of the ~antagonism of tbs
clerk, who was presiding pending tbs
election Of a speaker, the. belligerant oil
man, with q courage like that of Ethan
