FILING The DECISIONS

Editor Evening Bulletin:-In yodr
issue of yesterday reference was made
to the Edwards decision recently filed
In the Supreme Court, adding that the
same were ready but held back ever
since August. As that statement does
not bear out the facts and being
sort of insinuation on Chief Justice
Frear who dissented from the majority
of the court, permit me to state that
the majority opinion was not type
written until little before the open
ing of the September term of court
which lasted three weeks. As the JUS
tees had to be on the bench during all
that time, 1t was impossible to have the
dissenting opinion in shape until after
the adjournment of court. Further
more. 1t is customary to file the major
ity and minority opinions concurrent
ly, and there was no immediate hurry
| for filing the one before the other for
the reason that the prisoner. whose
liberty was involved, was already Civ
en- his liberty. His being previously
released. was in consideration of n;
length of time 1t would take to formu.
late both opinions. Thanking you fol

INDEPENDENCE THAT Is CHAOS

ITO raise He'll generally"
This seems to be the single plank and
only platform on which the Wilcox par
ty otherwise known as the lndepen-
dents appeal to the voters Of these ISL
ands. The expression lacks refinement
to the same degree that the course OF
the Independent leaders as outlined at
their final convention displays good
political judgment.
At its first convention held In this
city the Independent party had plat
form, rather a weak structure, but new
ertheless a combination of declarations
which raised the leaders above state
of chaos. At the convention held yes
terday, the platform practically went
by the board and candidates were put
before the people unpledged to any
solid principles. In fact there seems to
be no unity among the candidates en-
cept in the one desire for Office which
they hope to secure, without pledge.
The attempt to pledge Mr.. Carter and
Mr.. Macfarlane meeting with disaster,
the so.called party goes forward nam
ing men, who, II Carter and Macfar-
lane are not bound to stand by plat
form pledges, are certainly answerable
to nothing but the changeable moods
OF their own sweet will. The result IL
that the Independent party reverts to
political chaos with no other purpose
as yet in view than that of making
the Territorial administration uncom-
Portable by sticking legislative pins in
the Governors chair. This does not
appeal to the business community or
the taxpayer. II means useless legisla-
tive delays which perforce are expen-
sive; wasting time over personal wran-
giles while the important questions of
fair taxation, municipal government
and similar laws that make for prog
ress and prosperity languish.
The Bulletin must confess that II
had hoped for greater degree or COM
mon sense ruling the counsels uf this
third party. 1t would indeed have dis
played greater degree of integrity
had 1t held to principles and pledges
on which 1t was ready to stand or fall
as a party. Under present conditions
the candidates go before the people,
each on his individual platform, no
two alike. In other words it is Robert
Wilcox and those on his ticket In u
free for all scramble. It is indepen-
dence gone wild, and II the candidates
are successful the taxpayer can whistle
and doubtless be cinched for heavier
taxes.

THD ORIGINAL TOMMY ATKINS,
dOndOn NIDilA

Upon no point OF army nomenclature
do the doctors OF military history split
more flercely than upon the origin of
the sobriquet by which the British SOL
dier Is known to every English speak
Ing man in the world
One school Of theorists is positive that
the whole business Is merely the out
come of pure chance; another trium-
phantly points to the fact that. when
some years since 1T Evas decided TO
afford the British soldier practical in
struction in bookkeeping, the first ac-
count in the officially issued specimen
ledger was made out to one "Thomas
Atkins" while at least dozen other
theorists have an equal number OF
equally feasible explanations
There is. however, to believe that the
original Tommy" died so long ago as
1857. The manner of his passing was rs
follows: Upon the outbreak of the
Sepoy mutiny Mt Lucknow number of
Europeans hastily quilted their houses
and rushed to the Residcncy for pro-
lection. On their way they passed n
solitary of the Thirty-second Foot, to
whom they represented the danger he
ran in not retiring with them
He. however, replied that he could
not honorably quit his post unless duly
relieved. y few moments later he fell
beneath the Irresistible rush of the
mutinecrs. The fame OF his exploit
spread abroad. and among his compan-
ions 1t soon became customary to speak
of any other brave fellows as regular
