To the Editor Of The Tribune
Sir: Amy perfectly innocent man, Assistant
District Attorney Osborne himself, is liable be
charged with crime under circumstances that seem
to justify the charge. 1t might be, for example,
the charge OF picking the pocket of a man standing
next to him in a crowded trolley car. The loser
roughly collars him with both hands, shouting his
loss spite of the protests of the accused the
passengers search his pockets. Lo! the missing
wallet is found in his outside overcoat pocket, the
fact being let suppose that the thief had deity

Now would it not be practicable and would 1t
not be proper and right that the resulting trial
should be so conducted be consistent with the
possible innocence of the defendant and yet the
States requirements be fully met? Is the prosecutor
privileged to heap oboquy and billingsgae upon the
defendant while yet his guilt is not legally de,
termined? And is he privileged to throw slime and
filth about aimed at people more or less in n

TAXATION OF THE OITTI,ANDERs

AND THEIR PROTECTION BY ENGLAND
To the Editor of The Tribune
Sir: Such specious arguments as this clipped
from quotation from your paper. on behalf of
England's righteousness in the South African war
tend only TO weaken England's cause:
The taxation of the OutIanders-and heavily. too
cipIe caused the Amercan coont OF Tnch pTln
the British Government in 1776.
Taxation without representation is a principle
which applies only to subjects of a government.
The Americans Engand's subjects prior to

ton Of affairs which Denied them representation

But the case Of the Outlanders is no parallel An
English property holder in this country is subject
TO American taxation, but is there any objection
made by him or his Government because he is de-

owes allegiance to England. and is entitled rep

Is in their own Government. Their residence in the
Transvaal and their submission to the laws of that
country are voluntary. They are not deprived of

TO become subject of that country, and that this
is another grievance calling for England's inter

Here, again we have not only specious argu-

What sort of sense are we supposed to possess
when asked to believe that one nation wages war
against another because the latter VIII not permit
the subjects of former to relnQuish their allie

be absurd than the statement that England
finds justification in the because she feels 1t

~'Ne CLIFFORD HOWARD.
Washington Feb 16. 1900.
1.-THE supposititious English property holder IN
the United States can readily become a citizen,
and thus get his due representation in the man
agement of American affairs So long as he
elects not to become a citizen he remains a
British subject, under British protection, and if
he is oppressed by this country the British Gov
eminent has a right to intervene in his behalf.
The Outlanders not permitted to become
citizens of the Transvaal, and therefore re-
manned British subjects, and when they
oppressed by the TransVaal the British Govern
ment had a right to intervene for their protec-
ton. The Beers wanted to deny them not only
citizenship in the Transvaal, but also the alter
native-Brtish protection; in other words, to
keep them in anomalous state, unknown in
any other civilized country. That the i'm
