HIS MONEY ALL GONE.
Pathetic Feature in Jessie Nor
risOn Case.

A pathetic feature in connection with
the Jessie Morrison case made its ap-
pearance in the supreme court yester-
day afternoon. The appeal in the case
was set for argument, but the briefs on
Miss Morrison's side had not yet been
fled and the attorney for the state
moved that the case be dismissed.
Judge Redden, representing Jessie Nor
rison, asked that it be continued until
February, and explained that the aged
father of the defendant had already
spent practically all his means, and all
he could raise in her defense, and it
was necessary for him to have the brief
printed on credit. He was compelled to
go to a small printing office in Ell Do
RADIO, where the equipment was not suf-
ficient to publish a 100-page pamphlet on
short notice, and for that reason the
brief had been delayed. The court
granted the application for contin-
uance.

KAFFIR MINE SHARES.
Effort Being Made to Boom the Stock
in London.

New York, Jan. S.-Commenting upon
the situation in South Africa the London
correspondent of the Tribune says:
Lord Rosebery will entertain Cecil
Rhodes at hfontmore for a few days and
will be brought into closer touch with
the situation in South Africa. Spectators
in mining shares are anxious to impress
foreigners with the fact that there is a
boom in the Kaffir market. Prices have
advanced internationally during the last
few weeks, but the movement is sarti-
fetal, with speculative purchases with
borrowed money rather than solid invest
mentS.
Operators eager to work up excitement
in the Kaffir market refer to the in
creased demand for shares from Paris
and New York. but the evidence of for
eign investment is tainted with suspicion.
The market is always strengthened when
Mr.. Rhodes is in London, for his optimism
is infectious. Money is now cheap in the
city and speculative purchases of shares
are easily financed.

report to the governor, recommends
that the valued policy law" be repeal

Essence of the Cuban Issue.

President Roosevelts Cuban mes- sage should serve to recall public at- tention to a grave question. He asks aid for Cuba because she ''is weak, be- cause she needs 1t, because we have already aided her. This is the whole case in a few words.
 And why, pray, is it not readily granted? We can well afford to grant it. We are rich and strong, and the granting of 1t would increase our trade and add tn our manufacturing oppor- tunities. When charity and trade both demand it, why is it not freely and quickly granted?
 Simply because special interests stand in the way. This is now gov ernment of special interests, by spe- cial interests, for special interests. The underlying and controlling influence in the Republican party consists of special interests, or privileges as 1t is called in other countries.
 Beet sugar, cane sugar, and the whole round of protected industries are opposing the proposition of reciproc- ity. It is. says Senator Burrows, "a blow at the tariff"-the sacred and noble Dingley tariff. The Michigan Senator shamelessly advocates a pol icy that at once keeps up home prices, and a payment of rebate from the treasury. He desires, in other words, that the consumer shall be robbed first for the benefit of the privileged at home and then for the benefit of the Cubans.
 President Roosevelt has taken stand against this robber view of the case, and he asks that the duty on sugar be reduced to the Cubans, and he asks that this be done alike for the good of the Cubans and for the home people. He repudiates the Bur rows theory, and Congress must choos between the two-between Burrows and Roosevelt-between privilege and robbery at home and towards fair play and . broader trade in Cuba. If the choice be against the President and in favor of the robbers, the case will go to the people, and they will decide it. The result ought not to be doubtful.

House, Mir. Payne with a big bundle un- der his arm-he had stopped at the store on the way-and Mir. Shaw twirling a jackknife between his fingers. Now and then they would stop and dig into the bark of a tree as they discussed the various phases of the topic of the mo- ment, and then struggle on toward the hotel. It was all simple and delightfully."- provincial They might have been two country merchants in Crescent, Vt, go- ing home to supper and talking about the good and bad qualities of the new minister.
 They reached the hotel with their sub ject unexhausted and stood for a long time on the sidewalk entirely uncon- scious of their surroundings and obllvi- ous of the fact that they were great cabinet ministers of great country.

treason fits the constituency in Galway that last November elected Colonel Lynch to a seat in Parliament. As soon as he was elected he left South Africa, and remained in Paris until the war was ended, when he returned to England, and was at once arrested and thrown Into jail. Bail Is refused, and in jail he must remain until his case is disposed of
 The trial of Colonel Lynch for high treason is easy enough if it did not involve a constituency in Galway and the whole Irish question. Even if Col onel Lynch became citizen of the Transvaal, the case is not free from doubts. If he had renounced his al legiance to the British crown. how could he in all conscience accept q seat in Parliament? He might per haps In law, for England does not rec ognize as valid a announcement of allegiance. Once a Briton always Briton, Is her rule.
 The real point in the case is the action of the Galway Nationalists who elected Colonel Lyuch to Parliament by way of showing their dislike for the British and their sympathy for the Boers. No doubt the government of Great Britain will attempt to rebuke them by attempting to punish Colonel Lynch, and this renders the case his toric. England can well afford in her hour of victory, when she is about to crown a new King, to disregard the vagaries of Galway, but the Salisbury government, 1t Is plain, does not pro- pose to do anything of that sort, and Colonel Lynch must no doubt stand trial for high treason. He will win at any rate a place in English history.
