JUDGE LOCHREN's STUMP SPEECH.

Judge Lochren, the last Democratic Commits
sioner of Pensions. has come to the assistance
of his party with campaign document which
will doubtless be much appreciated by its ora
tors ard platform makers They will find it
useful to quote alleged judicial determination
of the unconstitutonality of the Republican pol
icy in the new possessions What they will quote
however, is in no respect judicial determina-
ton, but stump speech from the bench 1t is
impossible ntly to characterize by any other
term a deliverance of catchwords and cant
phrases about "satrapies, - foreign absolutsm,"
worst form of tyranny" attached to a decision
a which did not involve the constitu-
tional point about which the Judge airs his
opinion. The point before Judge Lochren was
the rights under the Constitution of a Porto
Rican before the ratifcations of the Treaty of
Paris had been exchanged. He decided that the
man had rights under it, and then quite
gratuitously proceeded to deliver lecture on
the status of territory after completed annexa-
tion, incidentally giving his views of arguments
made in the Senate while the Porto Rican bill
was under debate. Judge LOchren is an able
man, his opinions are interesting and he would
do brilliant work a writer Of Democratic
platforms but just what his answers to Sen
ators and his phrases about the Revolution and
President Lincoln have TO do in decision
war time is not apparent.
The principal point of Judge Lochren's cam
| paign document is summed up in the sentences:
at is clear that the General Government can
mot legislate over territory where the Constitu-
tion from which its every power is derived
| does not extend. The Constitution must be in
force over a territory before the General Gov
"ernment can have any authority to egislate re-
"specting it. This, we think, will he something
| of surprise to Congress. which for a century
| has been exercising legislative authority in
| places where the Constitution was not in force
| and the Supreme Court. which has steadily been
! upholding such exercise of power The other
day referred on this point to the Courts sllS-
tanning murder conviction by our representa-
tives abroad without jury trial under an act of
Congress That was Il of the exercise of
Legislative authority where the Constitution
does not extend. Congress has also leeisIated
concerning the guano islands "appertaining to
the United States" and the Supreme Court has
sustained such legislation. The Constitution has
no extra territorial force according TO the Su-
preme Court but Congress has extra territorial
| authority. IT has exercised il not merely in the
! cases cited but also concerning Samoa where

NO INTERVENTION.
sifePage.

Senator Teller. whose opinions and utteranceS
are worthy Of respectful consideration, has been
urging the adoption of a resolution partly sym
pathizing with the Beers and partly proposing
the mediation of the United States for the settle
ment of the South African war. He thinks his
resolution should be deemed unobjectionable
because il is similar TO pro-Cuban plank in a
Republican platform of years ago and to a reso-
luton offered by Henry Clay In the House of
Representatives much longer ago in behalf of
the South American republics. and that media
zion on the lines proposed by him should not be
regarded by Great Britain as hostile or un-
friendly
1t should certainly not escape Mr.. Teller's con-
sileration that the Senate of the United States
which is part of the treaty making and diplo-
macy conducting division Of the Government, is
a very different body from a party convention,
and from the House of Representatives,
which latter is charged with no responsibility in
the conduct of the foreign affairs of the Nation.
Resolutions which would be harmless in the
latter might be disastrous in the former The
precedents cited by him in approval of his reso-
luton must therefore be regarded as inconclu-
sve and unconvincing. The Senate of the
United States is not party convention, and it's
resolutions on matters Of gravest international
moment are not TO be governed by the rules that
obtain in the framing of party platforms.
Nor can his contention that such an offer of
mediation would not he offensive be regarded
with more favor. When Henry Clay was elo-
oGeDtly inveighing against Spanish tyranny in
South America and against Turkish oppression
in Greece he WAS not in the same breath insist
ing that Spain and Turkey ought 10 accept the
United States an impartial arbitrator or as 4
mediator. lie meant TO cast neutrality TO the
winds and TO side outright with the insurgents
And when Daniel Webster wrote the letter of
sympathy with the Hungarians TO which Mr.
Teller refers be did so without any thought Of
thus commencing this Government to Austria
as q neutral mediator Surely ii should be evi-
N.nt that if this Government should declare

itself convinced that the Beers were IN the right
and the British in the wrong 1t would by that
very act disqualify itself for any impartial In
tervention, and would make any offer of such
Intervention dangerously like an unfriendly act
Beyond all that there is view OF the case
which should not for a moment be forgotten
That is that the United States has already gone
much further than any other country or govern
ment in the world TO restore peace in South
Africa. 1t has actually laid before the British
Government the Boer request for its mediation
and has sgnfed TO the British Government It's
willingness TO exercise its good offices in behalf
of peace; and the British Government with
SQual courtesy and with equal eXplcltness, has
declined the offer. After that, what more, IN
the name of common sense and common cour-
tesy is TO be done? If renewal of an offer
once positively declined were not deemed oil en-
sive, that would be because it was deemed
merely impertnent. Is the United States to so
about the world intruding its attentions where
they are not desired? Or is il TO seize its neigh
Dor by the throat and say, Accept the tender of
my good offices or I'll knock your head against
'the WALL?

THE LAWS DELAYS

The execution of Edward Clifford in the Hud
son County CN. j. Jail yesterday closes a case
remarkable for its illustration of the laws ce-
lays. Clifford was detective in the service of
the West Shore Railroad Company. For captur-
ing Perry the train robber, he received big
reward, and that started him Vn a series of
sprees After repeated warnings Superintendent
Watson discharged Clifford. The detective
threatened to be revenged and in March, 1896
he made good this threat by fatally shooting Mr.
Watson.
1t was a clear case of murder If ever there
was one. In spite of the efforts made to save
the murderer from conviction on the capital
charge he duly adjudged guilty and SEN
fenced to be hanged. Cfford's friends, mostly
politicians of various stripes, were, however, de-
termined to rescue him from the gallOws. They
almost overwhelmed the Governor, the Chancel-
lor and the Court OF Pardons. They utilized all
the known legal tricks to secure stays from the
State and Federal courts, and even went so far
as TO attempt the passage of a special act
through the New-Jersey Legislature for the sole
benefit of Clifford. In one way another JUS
tice was cheated for four years. Even at the
last moment within a few hours of the time
finally set for the vindication of the law, special
efforts were made to induce Governor voorhees,
and Chancellor Magic to interfere but these
were fruitless, and so Clifford went to his death
yesterday.
The lesson taught is that some reform in legal
procedure is urgently necessary, so that case
absolutely without merit may not drag along
for years through the courts until the crime has
been wellnigh forgotten

and it has exercised it over Cuba. The Presi-
dent Is to-day administering the government or
Cuba under the authority of Congress, which
directed him to intervene and pacify the island
and if Congress fit at any time to enter
into more specific direction of our rule there 1t
undoubtedly has the power to do so. Yet prob
ably even Judge Lochren would not dissent from
the decision of Judge Lacombe, just handed
down. that Cuba is not a part of the United
States and that its citizens can sue as foreign
ers In courts But If so. how is 1t that Con-
gress may not legislate respecting territory un-
less the Constitution previously extends over II!
Judge Lochren thinks the Thirteenth Amend
ment abolishing slavery has no wider e1ten-
sion than any other part of the Constitution
Why. then. did its makers say "the United
States or any place subject to their jurisdic-
"tion"? Passing over the probability that they
meant to include beyond all doubt the Terri
tories concerning the constitutional rights of
which there had been a half centurys dispute
between Webster and Benton the one hand
and Calhoun and his friends on the other, that
phrase was clearly meant to include the high
seas, legations and other extra-territorial hold
ings in foreign lands, and make slavery impos-
sible anywhere in the world where the United
States exercised jurisdiction. Yet the Constitu-
ton as whole has extra territorial applica-
tion AS the Supreme Court says, it 'can have
no operate In another country" An American
citizen can be condemned without jury trial in
the American Consulate at Yokohama but our
Consul could not hold slaves there. How ridicu-
lous, then, for this Judge in his stump speech to
say: IF 1t be considered that this clause Of the
"Thirteenth Amendment propria vigore e1-
tends to these new territories, or limits the
"powers of Congress respecting them, every
"clause of that instrument, for the like reason,
as equally potent!

SUEZ AND NICARAGUA

II is interesting TO observe, fr ~ the report of
the United States Vice-ConsuI- -Grheral at Cairo.
that last years business of the Suez Canal was
the largest in the history of that great water
way. No fewer than $3.50 vessels passed
through the canal OF which 2,207 were British:
other nation having many as 400 The
United States, which In former years had no
representation in the traffic of the canal, at
best sent only one or two ships through. last
year stood eleventh on the list, with twenty-five
ships; a poor showing in itself but indicative
of progress in the last two or three years. The
total tonnage of the canal traffic was 9,S93.O22
on which were paid tolls aggregating ST. 3d.
142. From that it is to be assumed that hand
some dividend will be declared on the stock of
the canal.
II comes clearly to mind that for years be-
fore the Suez Canal constructed eminent
authorities the world decrying the
folly of such undertaking and demonstrate
ing mathematicaly, logically and by quantita-
tive and qualitative analysis the absolute i'm
possibility of It's ever beginning to pay ANYTHING
like interest on the cost of construction. In
brief, they talked argued and decamed for
all the world the interested opponents of the
Nicaragua Canal have been doing and are to-
day doing. And when Frederick Greenwood
put Disracli up to buying the Khedive's shares
OF canal stock for the British Government there
were even at that date plenty to depore such
pouring of the British taxpayers money into
a rathole; just men now lament the financial
ruin that would overtake this Nation If the Gov
ernment should undertake the construction of
the Nicaragua Canal. And yet-well the
figures we have quoted surely mean something
1t does not seem Over-reckess to hope that
not many years after the Nicaragua Canal is
constructed a cOmparably favorable financial
showing will be made by it's managers, and
that, with a rational financial and maritime
policy maintained at Washington, American
shipping will have in it some such predominance
