A lamentabIe Chapter.

1t is not altogether easy to decide in
ones mind whether Caleb Powers has
had fair trial. The shooting Of Goe-
bel merited swift and just conviction
of the murderer. But public opinion
was in altogether too great a fcrment
in Kentucky To expect. along with
swift conviction. sure justice. The fact
that the verdict was unanimous.
though the jury comprised one Repub-
lican and several anti-Goebel jurors,
certainly lends strength in no slight de
gree to the conclusion that Powers was
largely responsible for the numbering
Of Gocbel. On the other hand the Goe-
bel faction have made it manifest that
they are in the saddle. that they pro-
posed to convict Powers. They spared
had a judge whose rulings have been
favorable to their side. Whatever pub
lie sentiment there might be naturally
opposed to their methods has been par
alyZed by the effect of the crime upon
the community. They, moreover, had
one Of the most eloquent and able
prosecuting lawyers that could be OBJ
tanned. Under such conditions one
would like to be somewhat acquainted
with the mental stamina Of the Re-
publican and anti-Goebel jurors before
accepting their acQuiescence in an unani-
nous verdict as assurance OF the guilt
of the accused. 1t certainly is to be
hoped that a just verdict has been Sc
cured, but it remains a lamentable fea-
ture of many lamentable features sur
rounding the whole tragedy that the
trial could not have been held under
less prejudiced circumstances. But how
strikingly is shown the reaction OF
such deeds upon public sentiment, The
bitterest opponent Of Governor Taylor
could not have dealt a more effect
u1l blow than he or those who procured
the death of Goebel. Indeed that chap
ter in Kentucky history beginning with
Goebel setting justice and decency at
defiance down to the present. is
most lamentable and discreditable one

EXPANSION CONDEMNED.

Strong Resolutions Adopted by the Anti.
1mperialists.
PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 26.-The second
day s session of the Eastern conference
of anti-imperialists was characterized
by the adoption of a strong resolution
condemning the expansion policy Of the
administration. During the discussion
President Mckinley was severely criti-
cised and held personally responsible
for the criminal aggression of the
country Answering the objections of
those who favored striking out the
name of Mr.. Mckinley, Frank Stephens
of this city said:
"That murderer is the man who is
chiefly to blame for the shame that
rests upon this country, and his name
should not be removed - -
A further resolution was adopted re-
citing the cable report from Manila,
that insurgents were hereafter to be
treated as bandits and executed. This
action was compared with the policy of

Dead Generals Ideas as to the
Manner Of Keeping Order
in Philip
After Peace Shall Have Been Es-
F7R5Ss q
tablished, Are Likely to Be
Adopted.
Would Create a Force of Native
Police, as Has Been Done
in Cuba.

WAsHINGToN, Feb. 26. Before his
death and after giving much thought to
the question, General Lawton had
worked out a plan for the mainte tenance
Of order ID the Philip ppines, after the
close of actual war, which had been
submitted to General Otis and is, pre-
sumably, the plan which will commend
itself to the war depar tment when the.
time comes to replace the regular troops
by other forces competent to preserve
order. General Lawton's idea was to-
create a force of native police whose Of
fcers, at first, in all grades, and finally
as conditions improve, in the upper
grades alone, shall all be Americans.
Some such force as this is now success.
fully applied in Cuba by General
Wood, under the cognomen of rural
police Owing to the racial differences.
among the inhabitants Of the Philip
pines, it was General LaWton's s idea
that there would be no difficulty in Sc
curing police who should be proof
against disloyalty IN the districts, apart
from those of their nativity, to which
they might be assigned. That this
theory was well founded is indicated by
the successful use of the Macabebe tribe
by General Lawton himself, and by
General Young later on in his chase
after Aguinaldo in the north Of Luzon.
The natives, by their acquaintance
with the country, and the inhab-
itants, would be Of great assistance
in running down lawbreakers. Be
cause Of the similarity of face and
figure Of the Tagals, the American
troops have had great difficulty IN dis
tinguishing one individual from an
other; i'll telling friend from foe. In
deed. there is a story in circulation
among some of the army officers who
have just returned to Washington from
Manila, that the army actually captured
Aguinaldo in Cayite province, put him
IN Jail for 15 days as suspicious amigo
and then released him only to hear of
his identity after he had gotten away.
The ability of the Philippine leader to
make up as a Chinaman or g Chino. . as
they are called in the Philippines, is
said to be remarkable, and only a fellow
native is able to penetrate such dis
guise.

Projected WAR COLLEGE.
Secretary Root Addresses Instructions to
5 the Board.

the Board.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 26. The plans of
Secretary Root, regarding the projected
war college are set out in a letter Of in
structions addressed by him to the board
charged with perfecting the plan. The
letter is as follows:
The main purpose Of the proposed
war college for the army to be estab-
IshedS in this city, is in general to
further the higher instruction Of the
service, to develop and organize in ac-
cordance with a coherent and unified
system, the existing means of profess
sional education and training, and to
serve as a coordinate agency through
which all means of professional mill
tary information shall be at the imme-
diate disposal Of the military authori-
ties. While it is recognized that the
complete organization Of the institution
must be matter Of gradual growth, it
is desired that the preliminary steps
towards it's organization shall be taken
as rapidly as circumstances will permit.
ssIn the general plan. now under con-
sideration Of the war department, the
= 4 \ V
army college viii be expected TO con
slider and report upon the various ques-
tions affecting the welfare and efficiency
of the army, including organization,
methods of administration, armament,
equipment, hanspo ation, supplies,
utilization, concentra alton, distribu-
ton, military preparat tion, plans Of cam
paign, and such other professional mat
tiers as may be referred to it. The col
lege is also expected to supervise and
direct the methods of the several service
schools, SO as to develop their highest
efficiency and devise rules for the har-
monious and effective cooperation Of
all the military forces of the United
States, including the organization Of an
instructed reserve. Other matters de-
manding its attention will be the con-
sideration of methods for full co-opera-
ton of the military and naval forces in
time Of war, with a view to a thorough
understanding and concert of action fol
military operations, defensive and Of.
| fensive."
General Ludlow has been designated
as president of the board. 1t will meet
in this city next Monday.
