JChn J. Ingalls,

The Atchlson Globe of a recent date announces the early appearance of the "Ingalls Book" This publication has been awaited with general interest and in some quarters, with impatience. fos it is widely known that the book will contain, carefully selected and edited the public utterances of the most bril- liant orator anu writer this country has produced during the past fifty years. His party associates have at times de- clared him cratic. He has been charged with eccentricity. Such is and has always been the verdict of medi- ocrity upon genius. But there can be no doubt as to the literary value of Mir. Ingalls, works. Upon that point, every one capable of recognizing splendor of thought and grace and power of eX- pression will agree.
 A bitter satirist, a whitening accuser. he was also an impassioned celebrant of every high and noble aspiration, ev- cry simple virtue. Tn his breast burned the flame Of purest patriotism. In the same bosom ragged a fury of contempt for hunbug and hypocrisy. Shams and frauds and insincerities found in him their pitiless and blasting scourge. He was the laureate of courage, candor, chivalry. Brilliant and versatile as he was profound. gracious as he was saw age, John J. Ingalls, constituted a force in public affairs at once terrible and captivating. In all things, however. he was luminous as well IS powerful; gra- cious as well as deep. Nothing more beautiful and tender than his tribute to Senator Anthony, of Rhode Island, was ever uttered. Of his astounding ar raignments of ignorance. prejudice, su- perstiticn and dishonesty, the book will speak.
 AS a last word. we may say that after eighteen years in the United States senate, he retired poorer in purse than when he entered it, &nd that, in all the storm of comment and criticism that followed him to private life, there was never once a note of ac- cusatiOn against his personal integrity.

Expert Testimony.

It is manifestly wrong in principle, and decidedly wrong in practice, for the prosecuting officer of the law to engage experts to establish a stated theory. The employment of so-called experts in criminal cases has been sadly overdone, and perhaps the verdict in the Moli- neux trial and the policy of Judge Lam bert may have the effect of discourag- ing the employment of expert testi- mony-" If such testimony is required by the agents of the law there is au- thority enough to summon any citizen, no matter what his commercial or pro fessional standing, with the view of securing his opinions on points with which he is admittedly familiar. But when the officers of the state-as was done in New York within fortnight or
Arizona republican., 1902-11-19

so-engage experts to testify to cer- tain things deemed necessary to estab- fish by testimony then such testimony ceases to have any value whatever. Several months ago in the discussion of will case in the appellate division of the New York supreme court one of the judges arraigned so-called writing experts and said:
 "The admission of this testimony is but another instance of the abuse of expert evidence. So notorious is it be- coming that if it is not checked it seems to me that reaction must even tually come that will abolish such tes- 1 timony altogether"
 The expert" is always expected to discover what his employer-whether this employer be plaintiff or a defend ant-wants to have discovered. Several years ago there was a celebrated mur- der trial in Pennsylvania, and one of the experts engaged as a witness for the state so discredited his own tes- timony that he lost prestige forever and continued to be discredited as an expert up to the time of his death.
 Evidence that is paid for can never be accepted as proper evidence and the chances are that it will frequently be untruthful evidence. Thus the convic- ton of an accused man upon what is known as expert testimony is always very doubtful. It altogether depends upon who first employs an expert and what he will be able to discover. There are. of course, certain fixed rules and methods by which men learned in any specific line may determine certain things by comparison or by close an- alysis. But when an expert is engaged with the understanding that he is to find what his employer wants him to find the testimony given is worthless in the minds of the average juror, and properly so. Then experts of equal reputation are frequently pitted against each other, and their evidence on the same points are so opposed, and so radically at variance, that neither can be accepted.
 "Exeprt testimony" to be of value must be disinterested testimony. And the way to provide this disinterested testimony is for the courts everywhere to rule out any evidence that is shown to have been paid for. The state every where allows a certain fee for witnesses and every man is liable to be called upon as a witness at any time. He has only to obey the order of the court and he is only entitled to the legal fee pre- scribed for witnesses. The law makes and save in very rare cases can expert testimony be accepted for it's face value

A Case of Pernicious Activity.

The removal of Collector of Internal Revenue Julian II. Bingham from his office in the district of Alabama Is now shown to be a clear case of punishment on the part of President Roosevelt for the offense of this official in meddlinG with the politics of that state. Perhaps the effect of such action might not alone have procured the collectors dis placement. MT. Roosevelt in addition makes it understood that he disap- proves of the side that his officer took in that case. Mir. Bingham acted with those who sought to drive the colored men altogether from participation in southern politics, and the president has admonished him that he utterly dis approves of such proceeding. He will ceuntenance no ostracism of men on account of their color. and the under taking to aid in so doing by a federal officeholder he regards as sufficient reason for his dismissal Collector Bingham has been dismissed according ly.-Boston Herald.

President Palma's Administration

President Palma may not be getting half credit enough for his administra- ton of the islands affairs. In the mat ter of the finances, always a pitfall in Latin-American republics, he has kept firm grip upon the gold reserve of some one and one-half million dollars, and has succeeded thus far in paying the cost of government out of the cur rent receipts. The existence Of the re- serve gives stability to the young re- public. and inspires confidence abroad in the administration. President Palma has also sent abroad as diplomatic rep resentatives men of the best education and culture to be found in Cuba, who will make good impression at Europ- can courts. He has also kept pusjlic order and maintained the public health. So far so good.-Springfield Republican.

In connection with the recommenda- tion for the instruction of private sol diers in vocal music in his annual re- port for this year, Major General Henry C. Corbin tells the following story: "The idea of the practical benefit of music to the soldiers was first called to my notice when I was on steamer in the Pacific On board We had a number of British soldiers. Every night, rough or smooth, stormy or pleasant, the men would gather on the deck and sing. The sergeant would call on one soldier after another to sing his song, and each man would respond. There was the regimentaI song that all sang, there were the sol dier chanteys that the men sang the choruses of. The effect in bad weather was inspiring. Instead of sitting around in mournful silence the men sang themselves into good spirits. This habit of song is practised in the Ger man army, where every regiment has its own song, and in other Continental armies. As Q means to keep the men in the barracks and out of the saloons at night I believe vocal music to be exceedingly valuable"

There was a time when Colorado was supposed to be the certain cure for all forms of lung trouble. So many consumptives, however, have focked into Denver that the people there are thoroughly alarmed. They declare that the state is being sown with the germs of the deadly disease and the result will infallibly be to make Colo rado a plague spot. In Denver the passenger agents of the Terminal Lines Association have voted unanimously for the adoption of a law requiring all invalid passengers to have certifi- cates from physicians stating the kind of disease they have before boarding trains. The secretary of the associa- tion was instructed to confer with the city, county and state health officials in regard to the form of certificates which is best adapted for the purpose and as soon as this is done plans will be laid for putting the new agreement into effect

The Kansas City Journal says that within five days after the people of Missouri had voted to allow Kansas City to increase it's bonded indebted ness by s4.OOO.OOO, schemes had been matched at the city hall to spend s. 190,00O of that sum. This is the trou- ble with the management of most mu- inequalities. The moment they see any money in sight their fingers itch to spend it without any regard to the utility of the measure. The apparent demand for public improvement in our western cities always outruns the cash on hand. and it takes shrewd financfer- ing to make both ends meet

ONE WAY TO SECURE HELP.
Waterbury Machinist Answered Newspaper Advertisement.

Waterbury Machinist Answered a 1 Newspaper Advertisement.
 Some time ago a Waterbury machin- ist noticed an advertisement for help
 in a New York paper and wrote the
 place mentioned in the ad and received
 the following reply:
 Sir:-Replying to yours of September 10th. Our machinists struck May
 2Oth, 1902. The strike is still on. We
 are running on full time. We do not intend, to run union shop any longer. We pay .27 S-1O per hour and require ten hours for days work. We do mot allow other than straight time. If you want to work for us permanently we want you, if first class all round machfnist. You must pay your way to our shops in New England. The fare is $500. If you remain with us four weeks we refund the fare to you and for four weeks we will give you a
 bonus of $5 per week over and above your pay.
 There has been no violence. Our shop is fenced in and close to our boarding house where you can get good board for $4 to $4.50 per week. We make contract with you and you and we are bound by it. We mean business. If you do, call after nine o'clock at room 36, Ann street, and see Mir Mccullough.
 You will understand that it will be useless for you to go unless you are first class, as your services would be of no use to us and you would be out your fare and time coming. P. S.-As you are so far away from New York city,eit would be unreason- able to ask you to come here, but if you are sufficiently experienced to pay your railroad fare from where you are to the shop (the amount will be, in your case, about $4) notify me and I shall advise you as to where the place is.
 The whole letter is printed here with the exception of the name of the writ er, It shows, that there isIa we'll de fined system of securing non-alnion help all oyer, New England.

ing to donate their time for weeks it would seem that every union man ill the city should be willing to purchase at least one ticket at the small price asked for the novel entertainment giy-. en. Of their performance in New Ha- ven on Sunday evening last the Regis ter says: 'The Striking Miners Glee club is composed of nine hearty, stall wart, intelligent men, who made a fine impression on their auditors. There was indeed look of honesty on their faces and kindly though determined appearance, which caused them to strike sympathetic chord. They wore their rough miners garb of jumpers and overalls, with red bandannas about their necks. On their caps were the small miners lamp, and they certainly presented an interesting pie ture. Their singing was exceedingly good when it is considered that they have not had the advantages of most people who compose glee clubs, but have spent most of the years of their lives digging out black diamonds. Several of the voices were excellent and three of them rendered solos in a very acceptable manner" Those de string to attend the entertainment should go early as possible as the num- Der of tickets sold is large and the indications are that the house will be crowded to it's utmost capacity. No seats are reserved, first come, nrst served.
