SUPREME COURT REPORTS.
Bill for Further Distribution of the
Documents Recommended.

The Committee on the Judiciary Of the
House of Representatives has recommend
ed the passage Of the bill to provide for
the further distribution Of the Reports Of
the Supreme Court.
The committee in its report says The
Government in the transaction Of its bust
ness is penny wise and pound foolish
when # fails to provide its officers with
those books absolutely essential to the
proper discharge of their duties. The
Reports of the Supreme Court Of the
United States ought TO be at hand in every
Government building where United States
courts are held.
The judges cannot take the reports
with them when holding court and il en-
tails vast expense to suspend proceedings
and send out into the town or city for
such reports when required by the judge
during the progress Of a trial. IN the va
rious Departments OF the Government at
Washington the public business is many
times seriously delayed because such re-
ports are not available for immediate con
sultation and the same is true with the
Supreme Court of the United States The
members Of the House are familiar with
the fact that the absence of these reports
from some Of the committee rooms delays
the work Of the committees and frequently
puts the members to great inconvenience
In many cases provided for by this bill
the officers and departments have incom-
plete sets, and there is no provision of
law for filling them. The growth OF the
business OF the country and the increase
in the business at the Departments and
the importance OF the decisions Of our
highest court have become so great that
the provisions Of law heretofore made do
not meet the requirements.
The committee has added the urovi-
sion providing twenty complete sets OF
said reports for the use of the committees
OF the House for the reason that the ad-
iitional expense is but slight compared
with the vast benefits that will be con-
ferred. The committee strikes out the
provision giving an additional set TO each
Of the Justices Of the Supreme Court Of
the United States, as they express their
willingness TO have that done if furnished
with the other copies provided for their
use under the provisions Of the bill
"A proviso is added that no distribution
shall be made TO any place where the
court is not held in a building owned by
the United States. In such places there
would be no place where such reports
could be kept and cared for

As these ugly missiles exploded over the
heads Of the Americans il was at first
thought that the enemy was firing shrap-
mel The discharge was Immediately fol
lowed by heavy volleys from the barTicade
on the bridge and the entertainments on
the river bank. The flower Of the insur-
gent forces in Cavte occupied the trenches
and as the insurgent bugles all along the
line sounded Viva Filipino there was no
installing the defiance and enthusiasm
which prevailed in the ranks Of the en-
envy
But n the rebels were sanguine and
eager for the fray the Americans we're
never drawer or more determined. Though
the American troops were outnumbered.
their line overlapped with the enemy
strongly entrenched on either flank. and
it was the first fight for many of them.
Colonel Burkheimer's men went in with
all the zeal and persistence imaginable
Calamity rushing their 3.2-inch gun up to
within thirty yards Of the insurgent bar
ricade, the stout-hearted lads of the Fifth
Artillery answered the yells of the in
surgents with well-directed shells.
The scouts OF the Twenty eighth In
fantry took cover behind the dykes and
ridges in the rice fields near by. and
speedily impressed the rebels with the su-
perlority OF American craftsmanship.
Companies 3 and d were swinging into
position on the right of the road with a
feldpiece to hammer away on the
enemy's left as though the main attack
was to be made in front at that point
that the insurgents would at
tempt a stubborn defence at the stone
bridge. like the good soldier he is Colonel
prepared for just such an
emergency. While the column was at
Cavite Niejo, Companies A and c were
detached from it and directed to make a

strike the enemy on the right flank In
asmuch as this movement was not com
pleted as quickly as Colonel Burkheimer
two officers were sent to the
delayed companies with instructions to
accelerate matters.
Colonel BurLheimer's Bold Move
The fire Of the artillery and infantry,

having a good effect but because the
Americans made no advance the rebels
still believed they had the best of it.
Anxious to strike the decisive blow as
quickly as possible Colonel Burkheimer
went himself to where Companies 4 and
c were. and instead Of engaging the
enemy at long range ne ordered a rush
ing advance. The enemy on this flank

Americans forced their way across the
Mindlot River and beat the insurgents
back through the thorn bush.
Colonel Burkheimer then disposed COM

The insurgents behind the barricades at

the attack that was being made on che

blow. After he had be gun 10 drive the
rebels through the woods in confusion Col
onel Burkheimer's greatest apprehension
was that the men Of B and d might mis-
take their comrades Of 4 and c for rebels
and fire into them, so he ordered compaB-
les 4 and c to give three cheers. The
cheers were given with such hearty good
will that above the roar Of battle the men
of companies B and D heard the glorious
'hurrah which meant that the insurgents
flank had been turned. and victory was
about to perch upon the banner Of the
United States. With an answering cheer
the men Of B ana D companies pressed the
attack upon the insurgents front as the
rebel line began TO crumble and break
along the left Of The lire Of trenches The
retreating insurrectos had to run a CANT
let Of fire at close range from A. b. and d

The exact number of insurgents killed
and wounded in the affair at Putol is I'M
known, but TO say that 100 dead were left
on the field. and at least 15O were wound
ed is not placing the estimate too high.
In one Of the trenches, within a distance

were counted; nine more were piled up in

John c. Bell takes it as fore
gone conclusion that the people OF
the district will nominate him
again for congress. There can be
no very convincing arguments why
they should do so, yet it is doubts
less fact that he holds that opin-
ion. Quite number of people
have imbibed the idea that because
Bell worked the populist racket
successfully for number of years
that he is undeniably the champion
Of the common people. Mr.. Bell is
simply a populist for what there is
in it. He still holds on to that
party believing that through it he
can work the nomination. The
democratic party owes him moth
ing. He has not assisted in res
habilitating the party in Colorado
and ought to permit some one else
to have a chance at the congress
sional nomination.

1t was from the west that Lin
coin was raised to save his country,
at its most perilous time of need.
He was laughed at, derided by the
statesmen and diplomats of the
times, but he was backed by an in>
visible, a powerful force, the God of
the armies. Why is it impossible
that another man shall not come
out Of the west, strong of physical
nature to save the nation as it
drifts away from the anchorings Of
the constitution and the declaration
of independence. Bryan is the ideal
man. Whatever can be said OF
him, the breath of SANDER, Of inns
morality or untruthfulness has
never been uttered with his name.
The nation need not fear such a
ruler. There will be no repudia>
ton, which is so much feared, only
the reputation of the blood suck
ers who are fattening off of the
nations life blood.
The daily sentinel., 1900-09-05

If there was anything particulars
ly great in Bell, we think his claims
to return to congress might be lis
tened to with some attention. He
has not accomplished anything as a
populist while there and he will
accomplish less, if he is returned
again the present year by that
party. What the people want is a
live young democrat in the halls of
congress. No one seems to come
so near to filling the bill for con-
gress as ]. Maurice Finn, the young
orator and silver advocate of Grips
pie Creek. No one has any reason
to doubt that Mr.. Finn would Gre
ate just as much figure in con-
gress, as has Mr.. Bell and there is
every reason to believe, natural orr
ator, and man OF business which he
is, that he will cut a decidedly
larger figure than it has ever been
possible for Mr.. Bell to do.
