ADMISSIONS TO THE BAR.
Opinion of the Law Court Touching the
Construction of the Law of 1894.

The Board Of Examiners for the Cum
berland Bar recently made the following
representations to the Supreme Court,
and propounded the questions that fol-
low:
10 the Honorable Justices of the Su-
preme Judicial Court, sitting as Law
Court in and for the Western District:-
Respectfully represent to your HOnOrs
the Board of Exa miners for admission to
the Bar in the State of Maine, that
questions of difficulty touching the con-
struction of Chapter 1873 of the Laws Of
1899 have arisen, which said Board are
not authorized to pass upon; that these
questions are likely to come before your
HOnOrs sitting at nisi prius, and that it
is highly desirable that a uniform con-
structiOn be given to the doubtful pro-
visions Of the act, to the end that candi-
d 7tes for admission to the Bar may be
early apprised OF the requirements estab-
lished by the recent legislation,
The Board would, therefore, propose
the following questions, and pray that
they may be answered as may seem to
your HOnOrs proper.
L. WHAT under Section 10 of Chapter
1873 of the Acts of 1899, constitutes a
pending application?
Must notice of an application for admis-
sion have been published IN some news
paper by the Clerk of Courts, to make
such application pending one under the
terms of this Act?
2. Can an application for admission
in any County at a term of Court other
than the term next to be holden after the
first day Of September next, be considered
a pending application under the Section
of the Act above mentioned?
3. May an application for admission
at given term of Court, made before
the first day of September next, be con-
sidered pen ling application under the
terms of Section 10 Of said Act, when
such application made after said first day
Of September would still be seasOnable
for admission at such term?
4. IT the notice required by Section "a
Of Chapter 70 of the Revised Statutes
published prior to the first day OF Sep
TENDER next would not be seasOnable to
entitle the applicant 60 admission at the
term next held after said first day Of Sep
TENDER, could such applicant be admitted
ions of Chapter ~ of the Revised Stat
utes?
Board of Examiners for the Bar. by
Thomas L. Talbot.
THE COURT S OPINION.
10 this the court has replied as follows
We are Of the opinion that an applica-
ton for admission to the Bar filed in any
clerk office prior to September 1, 1900,
upon which the requisite notice shall be
given returnable to the next Court in the
County is a pending application, except
ed from the act of 1899 and upon which
admissions to the Bar may be made.

OF course the election in North Caro-
lima turned out just as was anticipated.
The Democrats carried the state by big
majority-it might have been made much
bigger if they had SO wilIed-and the
constitutional amendment was ratified,
also by a big majority. Hereafter politics
Will be quiet in the Old North state.
But what a fine commentary it is upon
American regard for freedom and human
rights, that whole race guaranteed by
the constitution that it should never be
disfranchised on account of color, race or
previous condition of servitude, has been
compelled by the shot gun to assist in it's
own ACKNOWLEDGMENT because of the
very conditions which the American
people solemnly declared should never be
a cause Of d acknowledgements. But this is
not the whole story. Not only are the
blacks cheated out of the suffrage, in de-
fiance of the constitution but also, in de-
fiance of the constitution the power kOf
every white mans vote In the state will
be doubled as compared with the vote Of
the electors in the Northern states, for
the representative of the state in Con-
gress and in the electoral college will,
in all probability, continue to be based
on the whole population. With nearly
half the male citizens over 81 years of age
swept off the voting l1st North Carolina
will still enjoy just as much rep
resentation in Congress as before, and
have just as much influence in determin-
ing who shall be President of the United
States

Kansas was one of the states that
Bryan carried in 1896, but the chances are
all against his duplicating that victory
in 1900. Four years ago the people OF the
state were not prosperous, the wheat crop
was poor and prices were very low. The
voters were in just the right state of
mind to be susceptible to the specious
arguments that Bryan made and the
promises that he held out. Four years
have changed all this. The Kansas farm
er is today way up in the sky" SO to
speak. The outlook for both wheat and
corn is exceedingly bright, and the prices
are ruling high. Calamity shouting
makes no impression upon him this year.
He is prosperous, and he doesn't propose
to take the chance OF disturbing any of
the conditions under which his prosperity
has come by voting for Bryan and free
silver.

Probably with the utmost harmony
prevailing among the factions OF the
Democratic party OF New York it's success
this fall would be out OF the question,
for New York is great commercial state
where dangerous financial heresies are
readily recognized. But instead of the
utmost harmony in the party there is
what appears to be the utmost discord
The feud between Croker and Hill, which
openly manifested itself at Kansas City,
has not been composed since the con-
vention, but on the other hand has
grown more bitter. Each is protesting to
be an earnest supporter Of Bryan, but
neither of them at heart wants Bryan
elected, because he fears it may enure
to the advantage of the other. The ener-
giles of each will be devoted largely to the
knitting of the other in this campaign.
and that means really the knitting OF
Bryan by both of them.

Evidently the report that the allies had
begun their march to Pekin, which was
sent out few days ago, was premature
August 10th is now set as the date at
which the expedition is likely to start.
Mean while stories Of unnecessary delay
and indifference on the part of the Euro
pean commanders are coming from Tien
Tsin. They originate, however, largely
with civilians and must be taken with
a good deal of allowance, for the ordinary
civilian has little conception OF the huge
task OF moving a large body of men into
a hostile country, and the preparations
THAI are needed. While it is of great con-

Chang proposition to deliver the ambas-
sailors at lien Tsin if the allies viii
stop their march to Pekin, must make it
plain to the Chinese diplomat that it will
be OF no use to undertake to stop the adj
vance either by promises or threats. The
expedition to Pekin is not an invasion.
but merely an attempt to rescue the
representatives of the powers who are
practically held in confinement illegally
by the Chinese government. There is only
one possible way to stop that expedition,
and that is by freeing the ambassadors
from all duress, furnishing them ade-
quate protection, and allowing them to
freely communicate with their govern
ments. Until these things are done, talk
OF negotiation is useless. 1t is also equally
useless to undertake to make these things
conditional on the agreement of the pow
ers to stop the advance. They are rights
and not concessions, and the powers VIII
not negotiate for them.

that the expedition be strong enough and
sufficiently prepared to make it's way to

The project of creating a State auditor
does not seem to be going like wild-tire.
The majority of the newspapers in the
state seem to be either opposed to it or
Indifferent. Very few are giving it any

office is superfous if the council is to
