A BRYANIzED SUPREME COURT.

It is not generally known that the ju- diclal branch of the general govern ment Wields a power lu many respects greater than that of the executive or legislative department. or both togeth- CT. That MT. Bryan, should he be the next president, would have the Ep- polntment of one or more supreme jus tices is altogether probable. That he would appoint men imbued with his own ideas goes without saying. What a Organized court would be able 10 do is shown by the vast power which the judges of that tribunal may wield. It might sweep away the constitutional barrier to a populistic income tax. It might abolish what MT: Bryan and his followers have so loudly denounced as government by injunction" It might import into the constitution and the laws of the United States the finan- cial falla cies of the silverites and the governmental vagaries of the populists. There is no telling what it might not do.
 From all this it must b. obvious that a Bryanized supreme court. feared by Messrs. Edmunds, Hoar and others, is not a mere visionary danger.-N. Y. Herald.

STONED IN SPAIN.

London-Dr. Francis F.. Clark, presi- dent of the Worlds Christian Endeavor society, has just arrived in London from Saragossa, Spain, where he has been conducting a Spanish Christian Endeavor conference. To a correspond ent he said:
 We had a rather exciting time and encountered much opposition in Spain.
 We cane near being mobbed at one time, and one of our American girls was stoned in the street. But luckily peaceful counsels prevailed. and there was no general outbreak although the newspapers were very hostile.
 And why do you suppose they as sailed us? It was not because We arg of the Americans, who destroyed their fleet and defeated them in war. No; all that animosity has passed and the Spaniards now are friendly towards the Americans.
 aside from Catholic religious opposi- tion, was that they thought we were Englishmen.
 The newspapers declared that the Christian Endeavorers were English missionaries, coming as an entering wedge to seize Spain. as England had taken South Africa. The governor is but when he found that We were Amer jeans he modified it so that meetings might be held.'-Chicago American.

People are beginning to ask what Emperor William is going to do about
 the reward he recently
 UP TO offered for the rescue of WILLIAM. the legations al Pekin.
 He was to give a certain number of taels for the rescue of each person, and his total indebtedness on this account is estimated to be over $500, 900. Some have uncharitably sup posed that the emperor offered this re- ward In small hope of ever being called upon to make it good; but that it was made at all is suggestive in relation to Washington's knowledge of the situa- tion as compared with that of Europe. Our capital was probably the only one concerned that retained some hope when all diplomatic Europe believed the envoys to be dead. As for the em- peror. the international troops would seem to be entitled to claim the reward. for no exclusive conditions were i'm posed. The character of an imperial donor in the cause of international mercy would naturally appeal very strongly to him, and in this case the circumstances are on scale splendid enough to satisfy even him. It would be real benevolence, but theatrical enough, too.

UNITED STATES IN THE LEAD.

Germany has been making great in- dustrial conquests in the past quarter of a century, but the number of prizes which she carried off in the Paris ex- position. although greater than those of any other outside country, are less than half of those gained by the Unit. ed States exhibitors. Not only does American supremacy extend to all the mechanical industries, but it makes it. self felt in the department of art also, where the prizes granted to Americans far surpass those won by any other people except the French themselves. It is evident that the age when Amer ica, after conquering the continent. would give some attention to the aes- thetlc side of life has come. It still ex- cells in the utilitarian arena. but it is achieving triumphs also in the purely ornamental and artistic field. The 2.500 prizes which citizens of the United States have carried off in the face of the competition of the entire world at Paris is an impressive illustration of the intelligence. the adaptabilty, the resourcefulness and the many sided ness of the American people.-St. Louis be-DemOcrat.

WORSE THAN DEATH.

The sentence of life imprisonment which has been imposed on Bresci. the assassin of King Humbert. may seem inadequate as a punishment for the crime. But as this penalty is exact ed under the Italian penal system it is worse than death.
 Perpetual imprisonment in Italy be- gins with ten years in solitary" to be followed by hard labor at the end Of that time,if the culprit survives. And solitary confinl ment in an Italian prison means absolute seclusion, in chains. in utter silence, without the sight of a human face, the food of the prisoner thrust through hole in the door, the tread of the keepers muffla q and not a word spoken in the hearing of the condemned. It breaks down the strongest men, mentally and physically. It produces a human wreck.
 The man who tried to kill Humbert in 1878 succumbed before his ten years of solitary confinement were accom- plished. and today is a maniac. He did not reach the period when hard labor was to begin. The other, who made the attempt in 1897, is probably approach ing the same condition. Bresci. with the braVado Of his horrible laltn, de- clares to the court, ''I await the next revolution!' But the revolution that sets free the murderers of kings will hardly come in time to release Bresci from the horrors of the living tomb to which he is consigned.
 Even the advocates of the abolition of capita! punishment must see that there is little mercy in d policy which condemns the criminal t. a fate worse than death.-Bcston Post.

 At the last meeting, when over 300 members. as part of the large audi ence. were present. Col. Twitchell, the president of the club, read the follow ing letter from Col. Roosevelt, which was received with uproarious applauce:
 My Dear Mir. Twitchell-Is>t me thank and congra tulate both you and the Hammer and Tongs club on the work It is doing. As I said a Las Ve- gas a year ago. I feel that New Mexico which furnished a larger portion than any other state or territory to the Rough Rider regiment-has a particu- lar claim upon me. and I am in the closest sympathy with It's people.
 ''I do not have to argue for expansion to you in New Mexico, for you are yourselves the best possible example of it. You or your fathers have expanded into the waste places of the great southwest exactly as America is now expanding. You have red blood in your veins, and are not of the kind to tol- crate a nation shirking its work any more than you would tolerate a man shirling his work.
 "I only wish that New Mexico were to vote for president this fall. It is enti- tied to statehood. and I need not tell you all that I can do to get it admitted as a state I will do.
 Sincerely yours,
 THEODORE ROOSEVELT"

The Maricopa democrats labored and brought forth a ticket that the republi- cans ought to be able to beat handily. It is the weakest ticket ever nominated in this county by any political party. It ought to inspire the republicans to make first class nominations. No has beens or perennial off1ce-seekers< should be given the preference. The outlook for republican success this year in the territory and the county is exceedingly bright and it should not be marred by injudicious selections of men.

 but he has gone out of his way to show that the president is quite a different person from the de- signing villain, with one hand on the throat of Miss Columbia and the other the anti-imperialistic imagination de- clares him to be. In his first speech in the Maine campaign the senator de- clared that the president had opposed the Spanish war till war became un- avoidable. and that he had conducted consequent affairs with great ability. This was pretty bad, but what fol- lowed was far worse. The famous dis patch to Dewey, Proceed forthwith to Manila and capture or destroy the Spanish fleet" was, according to Mir. Hale, the result of consultation be- tween the president and many repre- sentatives of his party. If We had added he said, and report forthwith at Hong Kong, I believe il would have been better for us, but none of us thought to suggest that, and as we couldn't foresee what was coming, we had to take events as they proceeded" That Is a style of frank confession totally novel among the presidents $ critics.

 the last session of con gress it was provided that Guam should be elaborately fortified as naval base, and a commission has now been ap- pointed to undertake the work of the preliminary survey. The officers en- gagged for this task are Captain J. r. Merry, on duty at the Honolulu naval station; Major Riddle of the army en- gineer corps, at present in the Philip pines; and Lieutenant A. M. Beechcr of the navy, who is now in Washington and will superintend the collecting of stores andequipment for the expedition. He will sail from San Francisco on the Solace about the first of October. and pick up Captain Merry at Honolulu.

Major Riddle will come east from
 Manila to meet the other members of
 the commission, and together they will
 proceed to Guam to begin what must prove large and important work Guam and Honolulu are our two step ping-stOnes across the Pacific, and if we are to hold the Philippines (by the way, who doubts it?) it is the part of common sense to provide the navy with a safe base somewhere west of Hawaii. As it is, Guam is rather too far from Manila for comfort, being some sixteen hundred miles away, and thirty-five hundred miles west of Honolulu: but it's harbor is excellent, and with proper it can be made one of the chief strongholds of the Pacific.
