Imperialism Versus EXPANSION.

Ex-Governor George S. Boutwell,.
after Analysing the various opinions
rendered by the Justices of the Supreme
Court IL the insular cases, reaches the
conclusion that following out their own
reasoning at least seven, and perhaps
eight, of the Justices must hold that
the Constitution applies TO the islands
acquired from Spain as soon as Ter
ritorial Governments are created there
in. Mr.. Boutwell, states that the Chief
Justice and three Associate Justices.

De Lima case. held broadly that the
Constitution extended to the islands
just as soon as American sovereignty
was established over them, and that
three of the Justices. White Shiras,
and Mckenna, who concurred with
Justice Brown in the Downes case. took
the position that the Constitution did
not cover the islands merely because
they had not been organized as Terri
tories; hence. that seven Justices must
of necessity hold them TO be covered
and protected by the Constitution as
soon as they are given Territorial
the same view without antagonizing
anything he said In the recent cases.
So far as this relates to Chief Justice
Fuller, and Justices Harlan. Brewer. and
p@ckham Mr. Boutwell, unquestionably
is right. Holding that the Constitution
applied to Porto Rico as soon as il was
acquired, it is not conceivable that in
their judgment that instrument would
cease to apply when the island became
full-fledged. duly organized Territory

statesman. This is by far the least OBJ

The problem of transportation in
cities is one which grows as time goes
on The passenger traffic is fairly well
managed in most places as things are.
for the electric car is swift, capacious,
and comparatively noiseless. as well as
cheap. But about two-thirds of the
noise Of cities is caused by the rumbling
of heavy trucks and delivery wagons
Chicago is trying to solve a part OF
the difficulty by a plan to utilize the
river, which runs through the town. 1t
is argued that barges can be utilized
to carry long haul wagons along the
stream, thereby saving much noise and
dirt on the streets. The cost of deliv-
cry service would be reduced, and so
would the wear and tear on the wagons.
There is little question, however. that
in course of time the horse as draft
animal will be eliminated from the life
of the city. Livery stables may still be
maintained for those who enjoy driving
and riding. and prefer the horse to the
automobile. but electricity will do most
of the work. There was a time when
dogs were necessary to every house
and life, as shepherds, or as aids in
hunting; nowadays, they are kept for
what may be called their personal quail
tiles alone. The man who lives in
city and keeps a handsome Newfound-
land or greyhound does not expect his
dog to be anything but ornamental, I'M
less he happens to live on street
where tie police do not often come. In
that case he buys an animal with ser
viceable teeth and a beliigerent dispo-
sition toward suspicious strangers.
The effect of this change on the hu
man population will be considerable.
Instead of drivers. grooms, and hos
tiers there will be men trained to tend
machines of one kind or another There
will be- further specialization of the
people in the transportation depart
ment 1t takes more intelligence to
guide an electric car than to drive
dray. and less to act as janitor of the
power house than to take care of
horses. The men who are not fit for
the higher forms of mechanical work
will be relegated to the departments
of mere muscular labor. In city are
always found extremes. Some of the
people are adapted to the highest forms
of work, others are fit only for the low
est. The country village forces all its
inhabitants to know how to do more
than one kind of work, the city makes
it necessary for men to know one kind
of work thoroughly.
A beneficial effect of the substitution
of electricity for, horsepower will be
found in the absence Of noise and dust,
and the increased cleanliness of every
thing. The business of street-cleaning
will be simplifed. and it will be much
easier to prevent and to remove accu-
mutations of dirt of all kinds. On the
whole, like most modern inventions.
such change will be good thing for
the community.

In the House of Commons yesterday
motion made by John Redmond. Irish Ma
tionalist, that the words defender of the
faith" should be omitted from the royal
title was rejected by vote of one hun
bred and lightweight to sixty. If the
mover had suggested making faith
plural, perhaps the House of Commons
would have seen the point and adopted
the proposition. Edward VII, If he is de-
fender of any, is defender of fine and
well selected assortment of faiths. In
England he defends, if he does. the
Anglican Church and creed. In Scotland
he is a Presbyterian. and in India he pro-
tects Hindooism. MOhammedanism. Bud
dhism, Parseeism, and other faiths too
numerous to mention. That being the
fact, why not say so in his long and
opulent title?

Built somewhere about 1850, the Bath

interest from the fact that John Adams

the United States after the Revolutionary
War. made IL his abode. From the hotel
he drove, on June l. llS5, to present his
credentials to George III.
