THE ANTI-ANARCHIST BILL.
Minority Report From the House Ju-
dietary Committee.

Representative Lanham of Texas, demo-
cratic member of the House judiciary COM
mittee today presented a minority report
on the bill for the protection Of the Presi-
dent against assault and conspiracy. While
agreeing with the idea that the United
States should not be made an asylum for
anarchists and those who oppose organized
government. yet he dissents from giving
the President protection not accorded to
other citizens. AS to this he says:
Il deny the proposition that one honest
and law-abiding mans life is any more sa-
cred than that of another. Any officer of
our government is but the servant of the
people and the servant cannot be greater
than his lord The holding possession Of
Office does not of itself render any man i'm
peccable immune from human frailties
and imperfections. Public men among us
can do wrong. There is no such thing as
royalty or titled nobility hereditary pre-
rogative in the United States. With us
there are no artificial distinctions and one
good man is good another, and as
much sanctity surrounds the life of one aa
ii does that of another. The murder of the
humblest citizen in our land is just as helm
Gus, just felonious, as that Of the great
est or most distinguished. Murder is muir
der upon whomsoever inflicted. and hu-
man life is a human life by whomsoeyer
enjoyed. The life of the highest officer in
the country or that of any ambassador of a
foreign government is no more precious In
the sight of God and republican man than
Is that of the humblest and most Insignia
cant resident of our great republic"
He points out that all assassins of Presf-
dents met death. He holds. also, that the
states should deal with the subject and
that this federal law probably would mag
distempered fancy of those seeking to de-
stroy rulers

whether we have or not, We have more

The District Commissioners have reeotved
an opinion from A. B. Duvall, the city so
licitor, relative to recent communication
from the Rev. A. E. Andre, missionary at
Fancheng, China, forwarded to the Com
missioners by the Secretary of State. Mr..
Andre desired to have registered in the
District Of Columbia his certificate Of ordi-
nation.
1T appears" says the city solicitor, that
he desires his certificate to be registered here
because marriages have been and are per-
formed by him in China. There is no re-
quirement Of law for the recording of a
certificate Of ordination with any officer IN
the District of Columbia except for the pur-
pose of authorizing a minister of the gos-
pei TO celebrate marriages in the District.
in which case the certificate is filed with
the clepk Of the Supreme Court of the DIS
trict, in Accordance with section 1858 of the
code of law for the District. There Is no
propriety or necessity for the recording of
such certificate in the District when the
marriage ceremony is performed elsewhere

HUBEscHER's MARRIAGE.
May Prevent Him from Getting a
Second Lieutenancy.

Washington, Dec. 3O.-An interesting
question has arisen at the War Depart
ment in the case Of Emil Hubescher, of
the Porto Rico regiment. Recently while
on a visit to this country Lieutenant
Hubescher applied for permission to take
the required examination for appoint
ment as second lieutenant in the regular
army. His application was granted and
he was ordered to report to an examining
board at San Juan.
Between the date OF his application and
his appearance for examination he mar
ried. That fact was reported to the
examining board and the question arose
as to the eligibility of the Porto Rican
lieutenant to appointment in view of
the strict regulations against the appoint
ment of married men. The law officers
of the War Department are now con-
siderng whether Lieutenant Hubescher's
appointment to the regular army might
not be legally considered a simple trans
fer from one branch OF the army to
another in which event the question of
marriage would cut no figure.
