HOW NAVAL OFFICERS
ARE TRIED

"A trial in the United States Navy
must partake of one of three forms:
a court of inquiry, a general court
martial, or summary court-martial.
A court of inquiry or a general court
martial can be ordered only by the
President Of the United States, tbs
secretary Of the navy, or the comman-
der-in-chief of the American fleets on
foreS~n stations. The form known as
~ court az inquiry is employed ex-
cluslveis la< 80 investigation OF the
conduct Of cosss ss,ssT.sss-sss-5 officers, while

as an assault upon an officer. A sum.
mary court, which may be ordered e
any time by the commanding officer Of
any ship or station, corresponds to the
police court on shore, and deals with
minor offenses of all kinds of which the
enlisted men may be guilty.
These three forms have been so out
lined possibly as to give the impress
sion that each has distinct functions,
and yet, in reality a court of inquiry
is presumably merely a preliminary to
A general court-martial. In a word, It
may be said to correspond to a grand
jury on shore. and just as a grand jury
reviews the facts in any case brought
to their attention, to determine whether
or not the circumstances make Il 1usti-
fable to bring the person or persons
implicated before the bar OF justice, so
the naval court Of inquiry insures al

WHAT THE RAIL WAYS
HAVE DONE FOR US

No clearer exposition of what the
railroads have done for the United
States has ever been given than that
| which was embodied in the address OF
Senator Depew, on Railroad Day, at
the Pan-American Exposition. The
senator is everywhere recognized as
the most experienced and eloquent adj
vocate of railroad interests that this
country has produced. In his recent
remarkable address before his great
audience Of railroad men and their
friends he declared that transporta-
ton Is the most important of the
mighty agencies which have made the
nineteenth the most notable century in
the history Of mankind; that the rail-
roads have opened our vast interior
areas, and, without them, the people
in the vast territory between Chicago
and the Pacific would hs Y been left
to earn their living by agriculture.
Cheap transportation by railway has
made the vast plains beyond the great
lakes, which were the feeding grounds
for buffalo, 80 years ago, now the gran
airy Of the world. II has enabled the
artisan to live, the factory, the mills.
and the furnaces to exist the mines
to be opened, and comforts and luxuries
TO be enjoyed by all the people. Sena-
tor DeDew said that when he entered
the railway service. in 1866, freight
rates were three times what they are.
today and that railroad bonds, then
paying 8 or 10 per cent, now yield less
than half that figure. The building Of
10000 miles Of railway in 20 years,
while it stimulated an enormous inn
migration and settlement, also aroused
a spirit Of mad speculation that ended
in a phenomenal panic. Out of this
grew the prejudices against railway
corporations, oppressive legislation, and
opposition to those consultations that
were necessary and that have proved
to be the chief factors in adding to
the public comfort and convenience. In
these days the senator added, the rail-
road service demands. at the beginning.

In closing his eloquent address, the

clared that Among the million of rail-

the hard drinkers altogether. The idea
OF accepting the canteen as the less of
two evils does not commend itself to
him. He says that in his post there
has been less drunkenness without the
canteen than with It, chiefly. however,
las a result of getting rid of some
rough characters" He hopes there
will be no more legislation about the
canteen, and that the whole matter
may be settled now for good, so that
contention about it may cease.
Colonel Rays opinions are based on
observation and experience, and are
worthy of respect. Any one can see
the force Of such arguments as he uses
against the canteen. The other side Of
the question is well supported by GER
tain statistics presented, the other day,
before the American Public Health AS
ISOLATION in Buffalo by Captain Ed
ward c. Munson, assistant surgeon, u.
S. A. DR.. Munson gathered these sta
tistics while writing a book on mill
tary hygiene.e He found tas quoted
in the Sum that in the six years follow
ing the introduction of the canteen the
admissions to the army hospitals for
alcoholism fell off 1876 per cent; delr-
UNI tremens diminished 81 per cent.
insanity. 81 per cent. The annual av-
erage of convictions by court martial
for drunkenness fell from 372 to 100;
the rate of desertiOn decreased from
to AS per cent, and the number of SOL
diers depOsiting money with the pay
masters increased 10 per cent. These
statistics seem to argue strongly in
favor Of the canteen as a promoter of
health and order in the army. Unques-
tionably the reason why the great ma
jority of officers favor the canteen is
that their experiene convinces them
that it diminishes drunkenness, betters
the average Of health and discipline in
the army. and increases the soldiers
savings.-E. S. Martin, in Harper's
Weekly.

THE SUPREME COURT
AN AMERICAN INVENTION

The American Supreme Court is an
American invention, writes Judge Sim
con E. Baldwin in The international
Monthly for October.
It could not exist in a republican
government under a written constitu-
ton, and among a people with high
conceptions of the sanctity and inviola-
bility of fundamental institutions.
It's popularity lies in the absolute
grant to the judiciary of power to pro-
nounce any act of the Executive or
of the legislature void, because con-
trary to the supreme law of the land
Powers somewhat similar had been
held by the highest tribunals of other
nations but these tribunals were not
purely judicial. or If judicial, their de-
cree was not absolutely final
The French parliaments anciently
passed their judgments on matters of
state, but if they refused registration
to a royal ordinance, they did so as a
parliamentary body When the consti-
tutional era set in, the judicial power
was more strictly limited, and no court
for hundred years has had the right
to declare a statute void.
The Swiss Confederation has it's Fed
eral Tribunal, but 1t is bound to ac-
cept and enforce whatever statutes the
Federal Assembly may enact, however
they may seem to conflict with the ar
ticles of confederation. 1t is the same
in each canton. The cantonal laws
cannot be rejected by any court.
Bluntschli, in his "AlgemeinesI
Staatsrecht," asserts that this is true
of all Europe. The Imperial Tribunal
of Germany emphatically affirmed this
position in 1888. A Bremen court had
ventured to apply the American doc
trine in holding a local ordinance void,
because an unconstitutional interior
ence with vested rights. This decision
was reversed on appeal. Tss eeReettv-
tionaI provision Chat well-acquired
rights must not be injured) which was
invoked, is to be understood, said the
Imperial Tribunal, only as rule for
legislative power itself to interpret. |
The judiciary could not differ from its
view
In Great Britain, the Law Lords
have come by practice and rule to con-
stitute what in that kingdom comes
nearest to the American idea of a SUI
pPezre Count nut until recent years
every peer was entitled to sit in the
House while 1t was engaged in judi
cial business. The court is still the
House of Lords. 1t is an ultimate court
of appeal for the British islands, and
the King In Council Cor "the Judicial
committee or Ine HrlNy COUNCIL } IOrl
the outlying dominions of the Crown.
One of these tribunals is essentially

lowed in a few of the American states.

Of a mixture of senator's and
Judges. The highest court of New Jer-
sew still consists of a mixture of reg
ular judges with judges who have not
or may not have been educated in law.
But the Judgment of the American peo-
pie has pronounced itself against such
attempts to dilute the judiciary. New
Jersey alone clings to it, but in prac-
tice her eight lay judges are now gen.

this means a good deal. for his pub
