In the beginning of our national ex-

that what those great men of the past
secured for US they would have US

but carry to oppressed peoples whose

regard the situation before US as a

whether the one or the other, it is here,

Washington, Feb. 1.-THE admins
tration has determined rapidly 90 ex-
tend the Jurisdiction of the United
States over the Philippine group in its
entirety, acting on the theory that delay
in THIS case IS dangerous, and that an
archy and a general paralysis of such
interests as the islands support will be
brought about through failure
promptly to replace the Spanish sover-
elgnIy over the Islands by that of the
United States. This decision involves
the necessity of a naval campaign, and
this VIII be instituted as soon as Ad-
miral Dewey receives the reinforce
mentS in the shape OF gunDOatS now on
the way to Manila
1t is not anticipated that there will be
a necessity for any formidable demon
strauons, but the very fact that the
United states government is able TO eX-
hiDIt a sufficient force TO accomplish
the purpose of occupation is expected
10 deter the natives from prodtlesS re-
sistance. Owing to the vast number of
the Philippine islands, large number
of gunbOaJs would be required to visit
them simultaneously, SO the programme
Will have the vessels visit in order the
principal towns outside of Manila, es-
pecially those where Spanish garrl-
sons were maintained on the islands
of Cebu and at ZamboangO, on the is
land of MindanaO and some Of the Cit
les on Negro.
The naval vessels probably will be
accompanied by some troop transports,
and the soldiers will be landed where
necessary to hoist the United States
flag and take possession formally Of
the ports. II is understood that there
Will be no attempt made at this time
to displace any of the existing munich
pal governments, except where they
prove refractory and offer resistance. In
fact, a policy of Cancellation will be fol-
lowed at all points in the treatment Of
the natives.

IDAHO FEES WITHHELD.
Investigation at Boise May Result In
a Sensation.
Especial to The Herald.l

Boise, Ida, Feb. IA sensation is
promised as the result of an investiga-
ton into the amount of money sent
from the counties to the state treas
Urer to cover docket fees. For each civil
case filed a fee of So is charged. This
is supposed to be sent to the state
treasury TO assist in paying the sala-
ries of court stenOgraphers.
Investigation shows very small
amounts sent in, in view of the heavy
litigation, and five counties-F'remont
Elmore, Nez Perez, Blaine and Cassia-
have not sent in anything on this ac-
count for the past two years, although
civil business has been heavy in the
courts there. Investigation will very
likely result in criminal prosecution of
d number of eX-county officers.

/ the house until action by the house de-
priveS him of that right. 1t is now con-
ceded that the only way by which this
member-elect can be unseated is by eX-
J pulsion. His eligibility and the man.
ner of his election being unassailable,
he cannot be turned out for lack of
any qualification.
THE constitution provides that each
house may punish its members for dis
orderly behavior and, with the con-
currence of two-thirds, may expel a
member. But the constitution does not
say that expulsion is not renewable by
the judicial department of the gov
eminent. In all matters relating to
contests for seats, in all questions as to
the legality of an election, the house
is sole judge, and there is no appeal
from the decision of a majority. But,
is the house sole judge in case of eX-
pulsion? Does not that rest on totally
different grounds from those contests
as to which each house shall be judge?
THE constitution declares that the
judicial power shall extend TO all cases
in law or equity arising under the con-
stitution. What more important ques-
ton could arise under the constitution
than the right of a state to be repre-
scented in congress by the duly quail
fed and lawfully elected men of its
choice? All will concede the necessity
for clothing a legislative body with
plenary, unquestionable power to de-
termine the election returns and quail
fications of its own members. But
and the majority finds no ground for
denying q member the right to retain
a seat is it true that an expelled mem
Der has no redress?
THE Post does not undertake to de-
eide this question, and it knows of no
precedent that would shed any light
upon it. There are no words in the con-
stitution that seem to us TO cut off the
right of an expelled member to jul
dicial decision. It is a totally differ
ent case from any of those numerous
contests that each successive house is
compelled to decide, and in which a
majority vote is final. And it is a case
with which the almost universal de-
testation of polygamy has nothing
to do"
