~rHE BAR, ON JUDGE DENT.

The last issue of the Bar, the Official
organ Of the legal fraternity of the
State, devotes some space to discus
sion of the dispute between the ma
jority of the Supreme Court of Appeals
and Judge Dent in the case of DR.. Hart
igan against the University Regents.
The Register has already referred at
length to Judge Dents open letter, in
which he stated that he was not per-
mitted TO take part in the discussion of
the case with the other judges, who met
an opinion of the court, not even let
ting him know what their conclusions
were until 1t was given out in the syl-
labus. The opportunity to concur or
to dissent was denied him in connec-
ton with the opinion.
The Bar uses some harsh language
in criticism of the majority of the court
and under certain circumstances 1t
might make trouble for the editor.
though the question of free discussion
and just criticism is involved in this
case, and the discussion is permissible
if the criticism is warranted The editor
has this to say of Judge Dents posi-
ton:
'IIe was a member of the court vet his
colleagues had shut him out of their con-
sultations. He was member of the court,
vet they did not ask his concurrence in an
important opinion. He was a member of
the court, yet they denied him even
knowledge of the conclusions they had
reached. He is a member of the court,
vet they hand down an opinion which he
is not permitted to see until it is given to
the pubic.
Judge Dent is mild and moderate in
styling 1t matter of courtesy. 1t was a
1awless proceeding, that unquestionably
vltiates the decision in question IL moth
Ing more. Judges Dents presence COR lib
erty to be presently as a member of that
court, even If he was the only opposing
member to the proposed decision, was as
necessary to the validity of that decision,
as was numerical majority in favor of
1t. His opportunity to dissent was as nee
essary TO its validity as was the assent of
any one or more who concurred in the
opinion. And when that court handed
down an opinion, as the opinion of the
court, in which the court as a body, had
no opportunity to concur or dissent thew
imposed Upon the public. and laid them
selves open to impeachment for malfeas
ance in office"

TO ADVANCE MEDICAL SCIENCE.


The University of Pennsylvania is
about to erect, at a cost of more than
100000, exclusive of grounds and
equipment, Medical Laboratory
building which will be unexcelled in
every respect. The trustees are also
contemplating the erection, in the fu-
ture, of a new Medical Hall, Anatomi-
cal building and auxiliary buildings
which will adjoin the laboratory about
to be erected, and which will form one
of the most exclusive systems of build
ings devoted exclusively to the teach
ing of medicine in Europe or America
The last quarter of the nineteenth
century witnessed the conversion of
the teaching and practice of medicine
from theoretical to a practical and
demonstrative science. This momen-
tous change, than which nothing more
benefcent has been achieved for ply
steal man, has resulted from the estab-
1iSAAkCAt Vi ldDCIdIOIlc III WHICH lC-
search in medical science might be
conducted Such laboratories, first
established in Germany, then in France
and now in all civilized countries, have
added great wealth of facts to our
knowledge of the structure and func-
tons of the body, as well as provided
methods of preventing and combating
disease that already have robbed many
of the most direful of their chief ter
rors. Hitherto America has scarcely
kept pace with fopeign countries in the
provision for scientific studies in med
icine and in incentives to their prese-
cution.
In view OF these facts, the decision
of the trustees of the University of
Pennsylvania to proceed Immediately
with the erection of medical labor
atory, which in completeness and
equipment, shall be without rival in
this or other countries, Is the more
praiseworthy and important. It will
mark long step forward.

OUR NEED OF FOREIGN MARKETS.

=
Discussing the possibility of Euro
pean tariff combination against the
United States in the event of our re-
fusal to conclude fair reciprocity trea-
ties, State Department official says:
More and more each year, as American
markets are extending into the world field,
is America at the mercy of the great pow
ers. We must have an open door in Eu-
rope or we cannot dispose of our surplus,
and failure to dispose of it would mean a
radical curtalment of our output with a
corresponding inability to give steady en-
ployment to American labor. Our home
market no longer consumes our manufac-
tured goods, and the time can never come
when it will do 80 without bringing wide
spread distress"
Just so. Our need for foreign mar
kets is imperative. We must have the
open door abroad. But how are we to
get the open door abroad If we close
tight the door at homer. AS the New
York Journal of Commerce says in dis
cussing Chicagos direct connection
with European trade through the lakes:
THE return cargo is essential to the
success of the enterprise That is the
keynote to the whole question of our
trade with abroad. Vessels cannot go
to Europe laden with American goods
and return to these shores with empty
holds. The return cargo is essential to
trade with foreign countries. And
how is this essential to be managed if
our tariff prohibits the return cargoes
from landing?

an unwritten law that the President OF
