HIS BUSY DAY.

Jim bailey CUT some Interesting
Capers Yesterday-Wound Up In
the Lookup.
Jim Bailey occupied a cell in the
lookup last night
Yesterday was Jim's busy day.
He will probably have repented. and
will be wearing sack cloth ard ashes
When he faces Mayor Sweeney this
morning.
Somebody must have Spiked has
beverage, for when ne started cut he
cut some exceedingly high inks. In
The AFTERNOON he came up town, and
gave very correct imitation of the
strong man. He first picked up a To-
cal boxer, and stood him on his head.
Then he visited wet goods estab-
lishment, and became involved in a
quarrel with local sporting man, dur
ing which there was a great deal of
loud talking, two or three sassy punch
es, and Bailey stopped metal cigar
cutter with his head, the only effect
1t had upon him being to make him
blink his eyes.
Bailey missed a diamond ring at this
stage OF the game. aud then his mem
DRY went back on MIN. He forgot that
he was a good natured gentleman. He
started in search Of one or two peo-
pie he didn't like very WELL and gave
few practical demonstrations of the
manly art.
Just after supper, at an hour when
the streets were crowded, Bailey took
out his fast stopper, ''Kinley Mack"
hitched to buggy. Bailey seemed to
labor under the impression that he was
driving on race track, and all the
while he was making a Garrison fin
ish. 1t was a burst of speed from
start to finish.
John Gilpin's famous drive, and the
patriotic ride of Paul Revere were
doubly discounted by Jim Bailey. He
cut loose on Market street below the
creek, and there were "doin's." Pedes-
TRANS warned a lady and gentleman in
a buggy of t4eir danger. The lady
driver in their meteoric flight, and in
attempting to jump fell fat upon her
face in the street.
Jim proceeded across the bridge and
tore UP through the retail district.
There was nothing to oppose him.
There was something about that dash
which prevented anybody from dis
putting Jims right OF way. Carriages
all took sidings, and pedestrians lined
the curb. forming solid fringe of hui
manity along the thoroughfare. Bailey
went through so fast that his best
friends failed to recognize him.
He proceeded as far as Eleventh
street, where he checked Kinley Mack
and then turned his head for the fin
ish. Down the grade the noble steed
came, and the excitement was at fever
heat. The buggy swayed like a branch
In a breeze, and the multitude mo-
mentarily expected Jim to be dashed
from the buggy to the street. In front
of Bader & Maurers the rig just
graZed street car, and then Kinley
Mack fell exhausted, the momentum
throwing the driver to the street.
Jim was up in a minute, not a biz
groggy, and he was taken into custody
by Officer Goehring. At the lookup he
was charged with inebriety and fast
driving. Jim said he couldn't hold the
animal in, and he didn't think he ought
to be locked up because the horse ran
off. He was rather inclined to the
opinion that he was more to be pitied
than to be blamed.
1t required Lieuts. Dan Ingram and
Ed. Michaels to get Bailey into cell

wheat averages ten bushels to the acre.

twenty-five bushels per acre. The

the heavy frosts and the fly, but is at

Bring to mind

quest, and it's like power to make
treaties, which may bring territory by
cession. The power to govern such
acquisition territories results rom the
power to admit states and to make
all needful rules and regulations re-
specting the territory or other property
belonging to the United States.
This clause authorizes congress TO
legislate in respect to a territory. in
local as well as national matters be-
fore it's admission to statehood in the
union.
The novel doctrine that the power Of
congres to govern territory ceded to the
United States may be conferred by q
foreign sovereign by and through the
terms Of the treaty of c%ession, and that
the general government can exercise
powers thus granted by a foreign sove-
reign Independent of and in disregard of
the constitution, until congress, mayhap
il the future, shall by its enactment see
fit to extend the constitution over the
territory, is contrary 20 the holding or
the supreme court of the Unied States,
to the effect that the general government
is one of enumerated powers and can
I claim and exercise no power not granted
to it by the constitution, either express
ly or by necessary implication. 1t is clear
that the government cannot legislate
over territory where the costitution from
which its every power is derived does not
extend.
The constitution must be in force over
a territory before the general govern
ment can have any authority to legislatc
respecting it. No foreign sovereign can
invest the general government with any
legislative power"
Numerous decisions are cited in sup
port of his opinion and he continues:
1T must be held that upon the cession
by Spain to the United States of the
island of Porto Rico, that island became
a part Of the dominion of the United
States, as much so as is Arizona or Min
~nesota; and that the constitution of the
United States, ex propria vigore, at once
extended over that island, and that tn s
extension Of constitution gave congress,
whose every power must come from that
instrument, the authority to legislate in
respect to that island as a part of the
United States territory. 1t follows that all
the provisions of the constitution in re-
spect to personal and property rights,
including the right to trial by jury in
criminal prosecution, became at once,
when the cession was completed a part Of
the supreme law of the land The chal-
acter Of an offense and the nature Of It's
punishment would be determined by the
law in force where and when the act was
committed, and laws of that character

changed, but the manner of trial must
depend on the law in force when the trial
is had, even though the establishment
and organization of courts must be
awaited before the trial can be had"

Within the states boundaries are to
