The Council of State has passed a
resolution which asks the Executive
Council to reconsider it's appointments
on the Court Of Claims, and practically
insists that the view the majority take
is the correct one, viz: That the Court
of Claims is meant to be an appraising
board, and not a judicial body as it is
maintained by the Executive. Perhaps,
the wisest policy would be to wait and
learn what President Mckinley really
did mean by his telegram. One thing
has been brought out by the discus
sion, and that is we ought to have a
cable here. Had the Executive been able
to cable to Washington all the acumony
and i'll feeling which has surrounded
the argument might have been saved.

have died from plague are buried They
do the same thing in Manila.
One of the incongruities of the situa-
ton is the quarantining Of this port
by the Transports They are going TO
port where plague and several other
diseases are epidemic. Manila, accord
ing to a late report has a far worse
plague situation than we have, There
had been two hundred cases up to April
1 in Manila, and Of these, so per cent
had been fatal Yet the transports go
and come from Manila without any pre-
caution being taken as to fumigation

ANOTHER MESS.

A British division seems to have got
rather into a mess. 1t lost it's baggage
and it lost it's guns. The manner of
losing them reflects upon the scouting
outfit AS things are now, when rifles
will carry mile, and guns of precision
can cover many miles, the scout must
cover far greater amount of country
than he was required, say at the time
of Waterloo.
To the commentator on the war, it
seems altogether absurd that the scouts
of a convoy guard should not have dis
covered the hidden Beers. 1t was their
business to do so, and to have swept
the country to right and to left, but
apparently they rode through the Boer
lines-the occupants of which the scouts
han no idea of-and then the Beers
calmly got the deadwood on the British
force there present.
1t was undoubtedly defeat, and it
was equally undoubtedly a blunder.
All the same, Roberts main advance
viii be carried out, and this move
makes no change in his original plans.
1t is in this that Lord Roberts shows
his military acumen. He knows his
men; he knows his officers, ond he
knows his strength. He waits to de-
liver one smashing blow, and to him
this matter is an incident, though an
unfortunate one.

1t is the province of cranks to make
themselves notorious Some member of

The crank in question must have been
of the fraternity to which Lucchini be-

ed the Empress of Austria, a woman
who was one of the most modest and
most unassuming of royalties. For the
Prince of Wales it may be said that he
is one of the most tactful of men. that
he is most kindly in manner, and that
he is ever thoughtful for the good of
his country. He has occupied a very
difficult position for years with dignity
and a certain suavity of manner which
has endeared him to people of many
varying rationalities. Among the roy
alties of Europe his was certainly not
a wise mark for the assassin's bullet
1t was an unpopular shot. Others might
have been shot at with less of a feeling.

people would not be free from an assas-
sins bullet. He probably viii have

Admiral Dewey is prepared to be
candidate for the next presidential cleo
ton. The American nation has reward
ed her greatest general with her highest
political honors, and it seems but just
that she should reward her greatest sea
captain with like honors. The strain
of a partisan fight will tell upon the
gallant admiral, as it told upon Grant.
But after all there is something grand
in a nation uniting in honoring one of
Its greatest men and putting him at
its head, II Dewey was able enough to
win the battle of Manila, many voters
are likely to be satisfied that he is able
to rule the destinies of the United

The bills incurred during the plague
are certainly of a curious character.
At the plague hospital and at the de-
tention camps where sick people had to
be attended to, there undoubtedly was
need for stimulants, but there was not
such a number of sick people that such
quantities of stimulants should have
been ordered. Besides the style of
liquids ordered are not those which
are found in the sick room. There does
not seem any valid reason for beer by
the barrel, or for pocket TASKS of
spirit or for cigars for either plague
patients, or for any other class of pa
tients who might be in the hospitals,
nor was there necessity for sauerbrun-
men, or angostura bitters, or a cocktail
