ERRORS IN THE CODE.
Conflicting Sections Pointed Out by
District Auditor.

The Auditor of the District has called
the attention of the Commissioners to an
apparent conflict in the provisions of the
gress. relative to the payment of salaries
of judges and bailiffs Of the Police Court,
as well as those of the clerks and mar
shall
Section So of the code according to Mr..
Petty provide. that the salaries referred
to shall be paid quarterly, while section
IS provides that the moneys collected from
the judgments OF the court. or SO much
thereof as may be necessary, shall be paid
over to the District and applied to the
payment of said salaries and TO the nee
essary expenses of the court Any sur
plus. he says. is TO be paid into the Treas
ury of the United States at the end of
every quarter.

tinued Mr.. Petty. by the District of Co

act of June H. 1896, That hereafter the

is silent as 10 their compensation. They
are paid 81. as other jurors, but Treasury
officials have questioned our authority to
allow this amount. and il would be well
TO make specific provision for them in the
new law, so as to avoid any future contro-
versy."
Mr.. Petty says the results Of the adop-
tion OF these sections as they now stand
will be the payment OF Police Court Off
.cials quarterly. instead of monthly, and
wholly from the District revenues instead
of from the joint revenues OF the United
States and the District of Columbia; the
payment of United States marshals fees
by the District; the practical extinction OF
the police and liremens relief funds by
section 5S, which requires the surplus of
fines to be covered into the Treasury of
the United States. and repeats by impli-
cation the provision made for those funds
by the act OF June H. 1896.
The Commissioners will make strong
representations to the District committees
of both branches OF Congress with a view
to having the conflicting clauses OF the
sections in question eliminated from the
proposed District code.

THE CIRCUS AGITATION.
Views of o. H. BudIOnE and DIR. Roy
ON Police Regulation.

The District Commissioners are in re-
long, citizen of North Capitol Street
who has been foremost in the agitation
against the issuing of permits to circuses
to exhibit on the vacant lot at the corner
of North Capitol and Streets. The COM
munication says that the recent order OF
the Commissioners if 1t was ever intended
to stop the nuisance complained of by the
citizens of the community. has, by its
ambiguous language. utterly failed to ac-
complish that object.
According to Mr.. Budlong the order of
the Commissioners was so framed that the
people who. a few months ago, petitioned
the authorities and induced them TO act,
are now as much at the mercy of the cir
Gus managers as they were before. He in
vites the attention of the Commissioners
to the wording of the order, which reads as
follows:
That section II. article 10 of the Police
Regulations of the District OF Columbia is
hereby amended to read as follows: That
no circus hereafter shall be located, oper-
ated. or conducted on any lot or open
space, without the written consent of 10
per centum of the residents keeping house
on the square on which 1t is proposed to
locate the circus. and in the squares con-
fronting such square,
Mr.. Budlong explains to the Commits
sioners that it is possible under the order
for the owner Of the lot where circuses
are usually held to obtain sufficient sig
natures to petition for a permit to issue
a license TO comply with the law. without
calling upon one of the residents in the
side of the squares in question opposite TO
the vacant lot.
Mr. Budlong therefore suggests TO the
Commissioners the revoking of the present

Let the Flag Wave,

~ believe that wherever our nag
flies by right of conquest or by the
consent of the people, there it will re-
main, and the party or the men who
propose to take it down will have to
reckon with the American people"
These We're words uttered by Senator
Teller during the debate on the Ha-
waiian resolution on Monday.
The News welcomes Senator Teller
to this position. He sounds a clear
note. And coming from the man who
proposed and secured the amendment
of the Cuban resolutions so as to dis
claim the intention of conquering that
island they are doubly significant. Mr..
Teller does not say that we must re-
tain Cuba. He probably draws the
distinction between fighting there to
give independence to the patriots and
fighting elsewhere for the purpose of
ejecting Spain. But if Mr. Teller had
the doing of it over again, we doubt
if he would propose the amendment
which he attached to the Cuban reso-
lutions. He recognizes what few of
us recognized at the commencement of
this. He recognizes that it is the des-
tiny of this country to enter upon a
period of broad commercial expansion,
and that the means are placed ready
to our hands by the fortune of war.
When the American flag flies over
Porto Rico and the Philippines, no
man or party will dare to pull it down

Mr., Maptle's Enlig h teAment.

Ex-senator Lee Mantle, chairman Of
the Montana Silver Republicans, is
willing to accept the declaration Of
the Democratic platform that anti
Imperialism is the paramount issue.
He believes Mr.. Bryan when that
candidate argues that economic ques-
tons should not be pressed upon the
country to the exclusion of those which
involve the very structure of our gov
eminent
lie accepts the dictum of Mr.. Towne
that Mr.. Stevenson is II better candi-
date for the Democratic nomination
because he is a Democrat by name and
profession as well as by holding Its
principles and advocating its cause.
And in view of these beliefs he
makes the following declarations:
TO my mind, the paramount Issue
to-day is the issue of maintaining the
honor and dignity of the nation and
the supremacy of its flag. wherever it
is rightfully floating. 1t is the issue
whether we shall preserve the fruits
of all the blood and treasure expended
and all the splendid courage and pa
triotism exhibited in the cause of hui
manity and in the defense of undenia-
BILE rights and whether we shall res
olutely discharge the great obligations
which have developed upon us, or
whether we shall abandon our ad-
vanced position, throw down our arms.
cravenly hoist the white flag and ad
nit to the world that we are incapable
of solving the problems which CON
front u.s.
Why do not Senator Teller and Con
gresham Shafroth follow ex-senator
Mantle's example?
The only possible reason is that they
are, like Mr.. Towne, Democrats, not
in name and profession, but by hold
ing its principles and advocating its
cause.-Colorado Springs Gazette.

When the convention was called to
order to-day the committee appointed
to consider the annual report of the
commander-in-chie approved of it with
an effort to secure the change of the
date of Memorial Day from May Both
to the last Sunday in May. The report
was adopted and the delegates took up
the veXed question of pensions. over
the report of this committee. and over
various amendments and substitutes
which members had prepared to offer,
a rather warm debate was anticipated.
but the report rs submitted by the
committee was adopted without amend
ment and practically without debate.
The main feature of the somewhat
lengthy report was the petition TO Con
gress to pass n bill providing for a
court of appeals to act Immediately on
the thousands of pension applications
now pending, and which court of ap-
peals shall have final jurisdiction.
A resolution was unanimously adopt
ed asking the railroads centered at the
point decided upon for the next annual
