4 LOST OPPORTUNITY.

This seems to be a time of small mar
gins The colonial policy Of the admin
lstration won temporarily, by the small
margin of one vote, in the supreme court,
and now comes the report that the Platt
amendment won by the same narrow
vention.
BY this action the Cubans have lost
an opportunity to benefit their country
which may never return. They had It In
their power to secure as compensation for
the concessions demanded in the Platt
amendment, a free market for the pro-
auctions of their island. For all pur-
poses that make for Cuban happiness
free trade with the United states was Of
greater value than absolute independence.
If the acceptance of the Plat amend
ment was necessary before a Cuban gov
eminent could be instituted, the Cubans
should have taken counsel of thrift and
demanded a guarantee of commercial
privileges. This would have been so rea-
sonable that the people of the United
States would have forced congress to
make the concession. Now, if the Plat
amendment be adopted in its entirety by
the people without consideration and
with but the assurances Of the president
and the secretary of war, the Cutans
viii find that congress will not regard
itself as bound to concede anything that
will be in any way detrimental to the
sugar and tobacco trusts. The island Will
be absolutely at the mercy OF congress,
dominated by special interests.
1t may be remembered that the presi-
dent said in public document in regard
to our treatment of Porto Rico, that it
is 'our plain duty" to give to that ISL
and free trade. to the end that its prod
ucts may find a market near home. 1t
is not necessary to call attention to the
fact that the chief executive MT only
stultihed himself by signing the Por;o
Rico tariff act, nor that he bent every
effort Of the administration to wiring from
the supreme court & decision viii viii

MIR. HILL ON THE FUTURE.

(GrOm the new I Ork lines
Mr.. James J. Hill, of the Great North
ern, IS clearly not a bear" as to the
future of the country He is in no mood
to sell short the shares of the United
States in the trade of the world, AMI If
others go into that foolish and risky
gamble he must not complain of Mr.. Hill
if he gets squeezed. According to the
interview published yesterday, Mr. Hill
makes the following calculation: Since
1865 the population of the United States
has increased from 50 100000 to 100000
At this rate, in another generation It may
reach 150, e00,e00. OF these not more than
one-third, or 59000,000, can be employed
in the trades and professions, leaving
100, 600 who must engage in agricul-
ture. They will be found at the close
of that period not on the Atlantic coast,
nor to any great extent in the Southern
states, but in the valleys of the Ohio,
the Mississippi, the Missouri, the fertile
prairies of the great Central West, and
beyond, wherever irrigation is possible
Their main product will be food, and for
this they must seek a market in the
Orient beyond the Pacific ocean, on which
our Western coast fronts. There they
will find vast population which needs
food and can buy little else, and can sup
ply for itself its other narrow needs Here
lies the vast commerce Of the future, ana
the competition for it is not on the land
alone, but on the water. 1t is national

to confuse the jury and to hide the facts.
What is the remedy? The remedy lies in
placing the expert on the basis of a. COM

thing about the case at bar. Let him be

PEELED to remain in attendance and re-
ceive his $3.50 per day But this would
be an imposition upon the learned men
who have spent years and fortunes in
acquiring the knowledge necessary to
speak with authority on subjects I'm
usual. What of that? Do they not owe
society the benefit of their learning in all
public matters? Should DR.. Smith be ex-
cuscd from testifying in 4 matter with
which he is familiar while Banker
Smith is compelled to sit as a
juror? The man who is in pos
session of knowledge that will tend
to the ends of justice, should be COM
PEELED by the ordinary rules Of the courts
to appear and testify to what he knows.
The experts should be sworn to tell the
truth the whole truth and nothing but
the truth, the same as the street laborer

for money The truth will come out with

But there must in many cases be prep
aration, says one Yes, that is true For
time spent in this necessary preparation
a reasonable compensation should be paid
Should an innovation on this line be In
troduced into orr court practice, the state
should bear all cost of witnesses where
the defendant is unable to secure them,
one expert being allowed to the defendant
for every one used by the prosecution.

Under these conditions, if the state be

Had the Cubans refused the Platt

that the spell of independence was strong
upon them. They preferred to be poor

a part Of the United States, and be pros
porous. 1t is their funeral, not ours. So
far as the interests of a few Americans
are concerned, the Cubans did the right
thing. Their action will give to congress

has given it over Porto Rico and the

TALKS WITH The TRAVELLERS

A Minneapolis Washington correspond
ent has just made the discovery that
Gov. Van SAINT will be renominated by
the Republicans of this state and also
that "all opposition in his own party has
been withdrawn" and that Gov Van
SAINT has become a very popular man.
The discovery is the result of an inter
view with Tim e. Byrnes, who was re-

So far as that portion of the find
relating to the governors being renom-
mated is concerned, there Is, of course
nothing new in it, as it has been gem
orally understood here in Minnesota for
scme time that the gang had decreed
denomination for Van SAINT. But that
all opposition to the governor from lis
own party has been wiped out of exist
ence is something entirely new-so new
and novel, tn fact, that only the fiction
side OF the tale appears worthy of atten-
ton.

Republicans in fact a great deal more
representative and influential than Gov.

are not still ardent Republicans But
who will say that they have withdrawn,

indeed their opposition appears to he
increasing, and their disgust with the

coming all the more pronounced with
every issue of their papers, which are
among the most prominent state organs.

that all party opposition to Gov. Van
SAINT has been withdrawn, might be con-
strued to relate somewhat to the truth.

vast amount of exceptional forensic

THE NATInN,s DEAD

IhlrJy-SlX years have PASSED since the
soldiers of the Grand Army of the Re
public broke ranks, hung up the mus
ket and the saber, washed the stains of
war from their grim faces and sought
their homes. Thirty-s,x years of pros
perity and peace was the reward of their
great sacrifice. We who live today can
scarcely realize the magnitude of that
conflict The Spanish war was but a SIX r
mish-a brush between the picke ts-com-
pared with that great const tutional
struggle for the preservation Of the In
ion Generally, events are magnifed ty
distance, but with the Civil war that IS
impossible. The horrors of the march,
the battle, the prison, will never be ex-
pressed. Neither can the fullness of the
results of that conflict be known until
this civilization has passed and it's his
tory has been written.
Such an army as was dissolved at APP
pomatOx when Lee bowed to the newt
able and that which was disbanded a
few months later by Grant and Sher-
man never has had an equal. Those
however who survived the perils Of
battle and disease and prison were but
a fraction of the grand total who march
ed away to the beat of the drum and the
shrin notes of the fife. The South became
peopled with the Northern dead; her
soil was enriched by the life blood of a
million men. But this Is all history now,
familiar to the school child as well as
to the surviving veteran. 1t was thirty
six years ago that these boys came

The eXorbitant charges made by the
experts in the recent Eastman murder
trial (aoout $1,000 again calls attention
to the necessity for a change in the prac-
tice regarding expert testimony 1t has
come to a point where the life or liberty
of a man charged with a crime may de-
pend on his financial ability to secure the
most illustrious experts to testify in his
behalf
It may be a misjudg1nent, but neverthe-
less there is prevalent a popular opin-
ion that money will buy expert evidence.
A trial then becomes a contest between
the hirelings of the state and the en-
ployes of the accused. The side that is
50 fortunate as to secure the heaviest
weights usually succeeds in scoring. No
matter wnat may be the theory OF the
state in a prosecution, it can secure ex-

be the defense, experts are ready, for a
consideration, to demolish the theories Of
the experts Of the prosecution. From this
