court MARTIAL

During the last year the court martial
has not gained in public estimation as
an instrument of justice. We have
heard much of it, but what we have
heard most about has been the cases
where it's findings have been disap-
proved. There have been a good many
such cases in the Philippines, and of
one of them, General Smiths, it seems
that we have not yet heard the last.
The fault that has usually been found
has been that misconduct was too leni-
emily dealt with. A very recent case
gives an instance of the contrary sort.
A San Francisco dispatch, dated Au-
gust u, tells how Corporal Thornton,
who kept accounts for Lieutenant Da-
Wis, quartermaSter in the Hawaiian Is
lands, was tried by court martial on the
charge of classifying accounts. The
court decided that Thornton was not
guilty of crime, but found him guilty of
conduct unbecoming his position and
prejudicial to discipline. It ordered him
to be discharged from the army, to for
felt all pay or fees due him, and to be
confined at hard labor for two years.
For a man not guilty of crime that
seems a pretty severe sentence. So it
seems to have struck Major General
Hughes, the reviewing officer The
counsel for the defence declared that
the testimony in the case showed a con-
dition of affairs that permitted OF lax
! and careless methods. This assertion
passed unehallenged by the court, and
in it General Hughes found a warrant
for declaring that the condition of af-
fairs which the counsel's assertion in
dictated deserved severe reproof. Con-
sidering apparently that existing cir
cumstances and methods were chiefly to
blame for Corporal Thornton's miscon-
duct, he revoked the sentence, and or
dered Thornton to be reinstated in the
army. So this court martial, for one
seems to have labored in vain We all
know that juries in our civil courts are
fallible, and that the decisions of civil
} judges are often reversed, but the mill
tary courts are not doing much to DEM
onstrate how the jury system might be
bettered.-Harper's Weekly.

WILL MAKE TROUBLE.
CLEARING HOUSE HAS
OPPOSITION
WOULD ADVANCE MEMBERSHIP
Smaller Members Claim They Would
BE Frozen 0ut-Scheme, If
Successful, May Cause
Split.

a number Of members Of the Chamber
Of Commerce are up in arms over the
attempt to reorganiZe the clearing house.
q petition was circulated Saturday seek
Ing signatures on the new proposition
and 1t was not until yesterday morning
that the opposing sentiment was shown
THIS plan is to limit the number Of mem
psrs in the clearing house to 100, and If
this action is taken 1t will be impossible
for the smaller members to get into The
Clearing house at all, and they will have
to do all their clearings through other
firms as some Of the smaller ones are
doing at the present. time.
1T will also make It impossible for any
new members to get in except by buying
out at a premium some Of the older ones,
and under this plan it would not be long
before a clearing house membership
Would be as valuable as membership
II the Chamber itself.
There promises to be a warm fight over
tie proposition, and those who have the
new plan in hand claim that they will
carry 1t through, but the opposition are
Just as positive that they will win out.
The opposition claims it is a. scheme on
the part OF the larger firms to get con-
troll of the clearing house, and If they
should be successful, it would initiate
against the growth of the chamber.
THE present membership OF the clearing
house, which is a separate and distinct
organization from the chamber, is SO, and
the fight of reorganization Is of course
only among these members. There is
considerable talk that if the reorganiza-
ton scheme goes through, an opposition,
Comprising the smaller members, will
form clearing house ~Nmong themselves.

AIR THEIR TROUBLES.
The Two Daily Papers at the ''U''
Nay Consolidate.


The university general faculty conven-
60 yesterday morning in the presidents CT
nee and cleared up mass of student pc
tftdonS incident upon the beginning of the
new semester. The question of greatest
prominence before the meeting was the
matter of the two daily newspapers now
IN existence at the university.
"a petition from the Minnesota Daily
News, the newly. organized paper re-
duesting the use of an Office room in one
pt the college buildings, was read and dis
c1ssed at length.
Mr.. J. l. Drand, editor Of the Daily
News, appeared before the meeting in
support of the petition. He briefly out
lined the policy and organization of his
paper and insisted upon its superiority to
the old daily in the matter of cororate
organism and the power Of the directors
70 dismiss incapable editors He stated
that the constitution of the old daily left
the entire control in the hands Of the
chosen editors.
Prof. Anderson contradicted this latter
etatement. He said that the old paper
vas provided with board Of directors
~ whose power it lay 10 dismiss incom-
petent members Of the staff
The faculty was about evenly divided
~ the matter. Certain professors feel
very strongly about it, while others are
F1nQ1HeTent. The opinion of the ma jority
appears to be that, while the appearance
or the new venture has proved a. benef1-
eial spur TO the old paper, the existence
Of the two papers in tie same filed is
not desirable.
Final action in the case was postponed
at the wish Of President NOrthrOp who
expressed the desire to confer with the
representatives Of the two papers in the
near future to discuss the possibility of
immediate consolidation. 1t is the presi-
dents opinion that the final merging Of
the rival interests is inevitable in the
END and that the sooner It can take plaza
amicably, the better.
