A DIVIDED COURT

The supreme court yesterday devoted
the entire sitting to reading the opinions
Of the court in the long-looked-for in
suIar cases The result, so far, is dis
appointment to all factions. The leading
case, known as the fourteen diamond rings
case which involves the status of the
Philippines, has not been handed down,
the court adjourning until today
The court seems to be evenly divided,
with Justice Brown as a key stone In
the De Lima case he agrees with the four
justices Fuller, Harlan, Pe-kham and
Brewer, who hold that the constitution
follows the flag in newly acquired ter
ritory, but in the Downes case Justice
Brown accommodates his opinion to that
of the opposition, composed of McKenna,
White, Gray and shiras, and holds that
congress can levy import duties on goods
shipped from one part of the territory
of the United States to another.
It will not be until the decisions of the
court in all the rases involved in this
controversy are published in full, that in
telligent comment can be made on the
opinions of the court. It is to be regretted
that in a decision involving the very
fundamental principles of the govern
ment there should be a divided court,
and it is more especially unfortunate,
that there should appear to be glaring
contradictions in the opinions held by
the one Justice who CHANGED to have the
determining voice 1t is evident, how
ever, that political bias had no place in
this constitutional controversy. The
Clio b will reserve extended comment
until the opinions in all the cases bearing
upon the question involved have been
handed down. The opinion in the Pepke
case should throw much light upon the
fundamental issue, as the facts ere in
volved in no legal complications over acts
Of congress.

TOO MUCH YACHT GABBLE

Are we not giving too much attention
to Sir Thomas I.iptcn and his efforts
get the American cup? Is there not an
interest manifested in '.kis yacht racing
business which the Importance of the
subject does not warrant? is there any
practical outcome from this sport in
which milliona"i"s spend their money?
There was time when yacht rae
ing was Of importance 10 Inc nation as
we'll as to the bIooded sports When
man depended upon the wind for his
power of ocean propulsion, the question
of speed was a vital factor The ship
strength, carrying power and speed in
the work of his hand, was of some value
to the world Tt was this inventive
genius of the American shipbuilders that
in the old days of wind and canvas
gave the American merchant marine it's
prestige. 1t Was ir those days that the
Baltimore clipper carried the stars ana
stripes to the four quarters Of the globe.
1t was the American ships built during
this palmy day before the Civil war that
were able to out-sail the English built
Alabama which carried both sail and
steam.
But that day has passed, and with it
the type of boats which made the Ameri-
can ship builder famous For a time the
rivalry between the yachts of England
and the United States was based upon
the material difference in their construc-
tion, the Americans holding to the cen
terboard type and the British to the deep
tional idea of construction. That distinc-
ton has been abandoned. The two yachts
that contested for the cup two years ago
were practically twins in construction,
the Americans having adopted the Brit
ish plan of shallow hull and deep-leaded
Reel. The modern racers are of no value
to any one after the race is run They
are not even pleasure boats. Frail as
an egg shell with spars twice their own
length, they are unable to withstand a
stiff breeze The recent mishap to the
Shamrock emphasized-rthls folly of con-
struction as nothing else could.
In this contest there is but one idea
the construction of boat that shall be
able to carry the greatest amount of
canvas while presenting the least resist
ance to the water. When that Is done the
question is resolved down TO crew and

THE REEUxDlNG INVESTIGATION

The governor of this state has thought
proper to engage himself personally in
presiding over an investigation conducted
into the refunding operations which have
been the subject of State Examiner
Pope's recent report. In doing So the
chief executive must be regarded as act
ing under a weII-defned sense of official
responsibility, and out of a desire to in
form himself as to at least the most es-
sentiaI facts Of the transactions in ques-
tion in their bearing on the official char
acter and conduct of the auditor of this
county.
There is not, the Glob believes any
requirement Of law, or any official OBJ
legation whatever on the part of the gov
ernor which calls for such action. But
it willingly comedies tn good faith OF
the governor, and that his action is in
Auepcod only by an earnest desire to
promote the fullest and fai-est examina-
ton possible into the important matters
under consideration
Under such circumstances it becomes
the duty of the Gil o b to withhold pres
emily the further expression OF it's opin-
ions as to the nature or effect Of the line
of official conduct shown TO have pre-
vailed in Auditor Johnson's office with
reference to certain of thess refunding
applications. That line of official conduct
on its face merits the most unqualified
condemnation on the part of every citi-
zen who desires to see the rights of the
individual and of the public protected
and the affairs Of public Departments con-
Quoted honestly, carefully and without
discrimination for or against any citizen
whatever.
While public official is thus trying
to defend himself against what are in
effect charges of official malfeasance.
even though the proceedings before the
public authority which is charged with
applying at least one of the penalties
which may be imposed, in case the
charges are sustained, seem not specially
wen designed, it is due to the proprie-
ties of such an occasion quite as much as
it would be to a judicial body. that I'M
necessary comment be dispensed with
This the C o b recognizes. Its con-
viction is none the less positive that no
matter what the outcome of the present
inquiry may be, it is the duty of the
agencies of public justice in this COM
munity to prebe to the bottom the con-
duct Of Auditor johnson and his depu-
ties, and Of those who are charged by
the public examiner with having Sc
cured undue privileges through the audit
or's Office, and with having obtained
through the same agency the public
money whcrewith to conduct private
sLeeulations.
This demand the Globe does not
abate and viii not. It is a gross wrong
TO the tax-paying community that such
transactions as are set forth in the pub
lie examiners report should have been
possible. There is no security for the
public in the conduct of official business
If those who are responsible for them

WANT OLD TREATIES KILLED.
France Would Have American
agreements with Tunis Abrocated

WASHINGTON, May 26.-Negotiations
have been in progress for some time
for the abrogration of two treaties be-
tween the United States and Tunis. The
negotiations are based on the fact that
the political status of Tunis has under
gons a marked change within recent
years, so that she is now practically a
dependency of France The treaties with
the United States are Of ancient date,
one of them having been made over 1GO
years ago, when Tunis had the status of
a strong and Independent society Since
she is now political dependency of
France, situated in somewhat the same
condition as Algiers, the French author1-
ties have desired that the modern condi-
lions be recognized and the old Tunisian
treaties abrogated. The American gov
eminent is reluctant to have the old
treaty abrogated, and the negotiations
are still short of any conclusive settle
ment.

cadets to drill its army. Not long ago it
endeavored, through the American minis
ter of Venezuela, to secure the co-opera-

Inasmuch as this new power is not a
