THE Supreme Court Monday
handed down q decision in the
case of State VS.. Bonner, wherein
it is held that an information lack
ing the verification of a witness on
affidavit, in addition to that of the
Prosecuting or Circuit Attorney on
his official oath, is invalid. Law
yers say in this decision the court
reverses itself, and great deal of
interest and surprise is manifested
by them in consequence. 1t affects
hundreds of cases now in process
of trial, and it is said that in the
last two years no less than twenty
men have been tried and hung
under proceedings begun by illegal
process, according to the new
ruling. If any person will point
out to me any other thing on earth,
earthquakes, floods and cyclones
included, that is as uncertain and
unstable as the law under the mu-
tation of judicial ruling, | will pre-
sent him with a brand new Stetson.

THE "little Panama affair." may
prove an iniquity a thousand times
more serious to us than anticipated.
The action of the United States
authorities was n very dirty piece
of work, done in behalf of the
canal grafters, French and Ameri-
can, and wholly unjustified by
either international law or special
treaty. The part played by this
government in the so-called in
surrection was insolent, uncalled-
for and disgraceful. fla European
power had done as we did, every
citizen of this great Republic
would be filed with Indignation,
and hotheads would now be cry
ing for wal against the aggressors.
But what's the use talking? Right
and blood are as naught against
the Almighty Dollar, and he is an
old-time fool who takes them into
account.

Cedar Falls, Sept. 4.-Mr. and Mrs

The government has been sending the
teachers to this country who We're tire

ruling was changed AID the journey
was made at their own expense, cost
them almost $500. Mr.. Steele says
the conditions there are discouraging

natives morally as well as intellectu-

The American army, it must be con
fessed has made the situation wors :
instead of better. Drunkenness has
caused wholesale discharge of Amer-
can soldiers from the army who are
now living by graft or any other dis
honest means at hand and many Of
them living in open lewdness with ma
tive Philippine women. There are
communities where 1t Is not fit for an
American woman OF decent character
to reside. The influence brought to
the islands by the Americans them
selves has to be counteracted before
any progress in work for morality can
be accomplished. Mr.. Steele was sec
rotary OF the Y. NJ. c. A. OF this city
before he went there and he went with
the intention Of entering into religious
work. He says he can accomplish more
in this country than he can under the
existing conditions now in the Philip
pines.

Fair. who, with his wife. lost his life
in an automobile accident not long ago
in Paris.
Mr.. Harvey thinks. in fact has good
grounds for knowing as an actual fact,
that Mrs. Fair was his cousin, and by
the terms of the will, which was found
few days ago. he IS to receive about a
quarter Of a million of dollars.
This will be good news to the popular
Waterlooan's many friends. He Is al
ready doing little preliminary think
ing as to what he will do with the funds
when they are showered down upon
him.
A quarter OF million or Whereabouts
Of dollars do not grow on every bush
and IL the relationship is as Mr.. Har-
vey thinks it is, there will be no doubt
about his getting what has been be-
queathed to him.
The accident which caused the death
of Millionaire and Mrs. Fair was par
ticularly sad one. They were spending
the winter in France and had been out
automobiling when an accident oc-
Cured which resulted In the fatality.
