THE TROUBLES THAT MAY ARISE IN
CONNECTION WITH THEIR CLAIMS.

CONNECTION WITH THEIR CLAIMS
There few questions concerning which
greater amount of ignorance prevails on both
sides of the Atlantic than that of the Dutch
succession and in view Of the dangerous illness
of the young Queen of Holland. prostrated
with that typhoid fever to which members of the
reigning houses of Europe appear to be so par
ticularly prone, 1t may be timely to offer few
notes by way of explanation Of the subject-the
more so as the name of Emperor William. who
includes among his other titles that of Prince
of Orange-has been put forward by some Ger
man writer's as having rights to the Dutch
crown.
The Dutch succession is based upon the pro-
visions of the constitution of August "a. 1915,
when the Netherlands were organized by the
Congress of Vienna into a kingdom and the
clauses bearing upon the subject were main
tanned by the subsequent constitution of Octo-
Der a. 1913. According to the terms of the
two national constitutions, the crown of the
Netherlands is vested in the descendants Of that
prince of the house of Orange who in 1915
was proclaimed first King of the Netherlands
under the title of William l. Legitimate descent
from him is a sine qua non to the succession of
the Dutch throne. and it is not until all his
descendants in the male well in the fe-
male line have become extinct that any ques-
ton could arise about the right OF Emperor

The Tug Samson Loses a Tow With
Three Men Aboard.

There was wild rumor afoaf yes
terday that the tug samson, Captain
Randall commanding. had lost three
men overheard In an effort 10 tow d
barge to port. After many Intellectual
efforts TO run the story down. the facts
as CLEANED are that the samson caught
onto tho barge al the mouth Of the
river and In attempting to tow the
same Into the harbor pertea hawser,
losing tho barge in the effort.
After a frultiess endeavor TO recover
her tow the Samson returned to port.
and after equipping herself witha new
s,eei hawser left out In search of the
barge. There are three men on board
the latter and grave fears are enter
tained that she may drift out TO sea
and be lost.
Captain Woods, one OF the prominent
bar pilots. however. is Of the opinion
that the barge in weather-rlder and
that she VIII be rescued. together with
her crew, all safe and sound There

AFTER BOREING,
And the Man from the Mountains
is To be Given a Race.

A dispatch from Middles boro
KY, says: Politicians believe
that an independent man or Dem.
ocrat has good chance for elec
tion in the coming congressional
race in this district. The dissatis-
faction with Boreing makes success
possible. The customary Republi-
can majority is about $4,000, but
this has been narrowed down sew
eral times to 5000. Yerke's ma
jority in the last gubernatorial race
was over 10000. The nearest ap.
proach to winning ever made by a
Democrat was in 1896, when George
Stone ran against Colonel Colson.
Colson won by only $500. John
ID. White, gave Boreing a race for
his life two years ago, the present
Congressman winning by 5000.
The old Tenth, out of which the
Eleventh was formed used to send
Democrats to Congress. Major
Mat Adams, of Winchester, an old
Union soldier with Democratic
views, won, and it is possible that
a man like him might win now.
1t is likely that an Independent
man will be put up. Some want
John d. White, Republican indie
pendent, but others think that
new man should be selected.

M0bs Guilty OF Murder Deserve
Punishment = Officers Too
Often Parties to the Crime.

In Leesburg, Va, recently an un
masked mob formed at noon and
proceeding to the Jail, took from j
a negro charged with having having
committed a criminal assault upor
white woman. He was lyncheC
in the sight of several thousand
people. There was the usual farce
of opposition on the part of those
sworn to protect the negro. In
answer to the charge of the Rev
Il. S. Kinks, a Leesburg minister,
that if there had been ten or twelve
men in the town to stand for the
law, the Jail could not have been
entered, the following plea is en-
tered by Col. White, a Confederate
veteran:
What could dozen or more
men do, most of them without
arms, in the face of one hundred
well-armed, de termined men
Bravery without prudence is dan
gerous commodity. / will never, in
the defense of barn burner, rob
ber, murderer white or black, law
or no law-kill any man"
The character of the crime does
not alter a whit the necessity of
protection to the criminal until the
law has taken its full course. Men
who organize and take part in mob
for the overthrow of Justice cease
for the time being, to be citizens
whose lives should be valued at the
expense of the sworn duties of the
officers. The situation is one in
which neither loathing for the
criminal nor friendship for his en-
emies plays part. Men who are
not willing to recognize this fact
have no place as servants of the
law. Two or three brave men are
usually sufficient to put to flight
such mobs. Mobs nine times out
of ten flee the field long before a
dozen of their men are killed. The
chief obstacle in protecting prison
ers against mobs is not too much
bravery but too much cowardice on
the part of the law officers.-Cou-
rier journal.

Ill Health Induces Resignation Of
Justice Gray-Successor
Appointed.

President Roosevelt has appoint.
ed the Hon. Oliver Wendell Holmes
Chief Justice of the Supreme Court
of Massachusetts, to be an Associ.
ate Justice of the United States
vice Mr.. Justice Gray, resigned.
The resignation of Justice Gray
was due to i'll health. Severa
months ago he suffered a stroke O.
apoplexy, which some time later
was folloHed by another. He has
not appeared on the bench since he
was stricken the first time. His
advanced age-seventy-four years
told against his recovery. With
the exception Of Mr.. Justice Har
Ian, he has served on the bench o.
the United States Supreme Court
longer than any of his present col
leagues. He was appointed an AS.
sociate Justice by President Arthur
on December 10, 1881.
Judge Holmes is one of the mos
distinguished lawyers and jurist'
of Massachusetts. He is son ano
namesake of the late DR.. Holmes
the poe. and essayist.
