SUBTLETY OFT LAWYERS

From the. kansas City. Star:
Mr.. Frederick Lehman, one of the
attorneys Tor r. M. Snyder, in arguing
that his client had been "a usual resi-
dent OF Missouri. and consequently
should go free Of the charge of bribery
under the statute of Limitations, closed
one period Of his address to the supreme
court with the statement, "A mans
usual residence is where his home is
and where his loved ones are, and even
the subtlety of lawyers can't change
that" It is certainly richness" that
an advocate engaged in evading the
main point at issue should express re-
sentiment at the "subtlety of lawyers

PERPETUATE THE NEW DEMO-
Crazy

In a country like the United States
at least two parties, representing diff
fereni ideas as to the policy Of the
government, are necessary. When
ever the two leading parties have but
minor differences, a third party usual
ly comes forth. There is always a
large number Of independent, progress
sive citizens who have courage enough
to take advanced ground on any i'm
portant question.
For years there was but little diff
ference between the Republican and
Democratic parties. Both stood for
the same kind of money. Both show
cred fav0rs on certain class at the
expense Of the other. Both believed
In a tariff Of some kind, and differed
only in the amount that should be
levied.
In 1896 the Democrats of the United
States declared their independence.
Tired Of being used in the interest of
favored few they asserted that this
is and ought to be a government Of
the people, rather than a class gov
eminent. The moment this was done
1T drew the line in American politics.
Every corporate influence took sides
against the reincarnated Democracy.
Money was spent lavishly to prevent
this country from returning to first
principles In 1896 the money question
was not so much the issue as was the
question: whether this should be a
class government or peoples govern
ment." The classes won. Since that
time trusts have grown and fattened,
and the people have been robbed un-
mercifully. High rents, high prices
and unsteady employment is the record
of the class rule
The Democratic party since 1896 has
consistently fought every selfish in
terest in the United States. Now it
IS evident that the people are becom-
lang tired of being continually pluck
ed. Some surprises are in store for
the classes. Recognizing this they
have put a movement on foot to
capture the Democratic party.
Grover Cleveland, their Moses, who
has been silent for eight years, has
been urged to rescue the party from
it's insane" policy.
Minnesota Democrats are progress
slVe men. But influences are at work
to turn the party in this state over to
the crowd who today ito the priv
LEGGED class. Some very good men
have been lured to their fold in the
most simple manner. To those Demo-
Gratis who still believe in the PRINCIPLES
of the party as declared by the 1896
and 1900 conventions we say, Beware!
Minnesota Democrats cannot he
negative Democrats. Let them con-
tinue the aggressive program of the
last two campaigns, and victory, with
honor. will corwn their efforts.

Grover Cleveland has attempted to
explain the position Of the govern
ment in the A. r. U. strike in 1894.
An explanation is unnecessary. The
infamy Of his position was evident the
moment he employed the attorney for

against the strikers.

COE WINS FROM PENN
Visitors Convince Judges Big Armies are
Good Things.

The intercollegiate debate between
Penn and Coe colleges, held in Penn
chapel, resulted in a decision Of to
0 in favor of Coe. The question,
That a constantly increasing arma-
ment is conducive to the welfare CT
nations" was denied by Penn and af-
firmed by Gee.
The question in great black and
white letters was stretched high
above the platform where all might
read Just below it hung a NAM
moth Penn pennant, and the blue and
gold of the college was draped from
the chandeliers. A goodly crowd was
present and it yelled out college con-
glomerations of queer new tangled
words and strangely curtailed old
ones. There was plenty Of time FOR
this diversion, as President Bradley,
of Iowa college, who was to act as one
of the judges, was unavoidably de-
tanned and it was close to nine O'Clock
before the debate proper was well
under way.
Elmer ]. Lewis, PENIS alternate,
introduced Judge Blanchard as the
chairman of the evening. In open
ing the program, the Judge made a
few happy remarks which brought
smiles to the faces of his listeners.
A duet by Misses Alice Cook and
Leoni Woody was the first number,
and was followed by Ira e. Palmer OF
Coe, who said that constantly in
creasing armament meant IAN in
crease of men, an increasesof mater
ials and an increase in the efficiency
of both. The armament of nations
has increased, is increasing, and will
increase This world will never cease
to disagree and compete until all men
become possessed of the same tenn
permanent. An increasing armament
is absolutely essential TO human adj
vance"
Clarence G.. Mclean, of Penn, read
an argumental paper in which he
said that it was folly to increase ar
maments when nations were already
threatened with disaster because OIL
large unpaid war debts. War is an
attempt to give evil for evil and is a
stain on Christian nation, breaking
the command, Thou shalt not kill'."
VIM. N. Otto. Of Coe, was strong in
his entire argument, proving by refer
ences to biblical examples that the
Lord sent victories to His armies ana
that Christians must defend them
selves and their rights. There are
two kinds of disputes. Judicial and
moral The former can be settled by
diplomacy and arbitration, armament
making this possible. international
arbitration can not settle moral dis
pute. A good armament Is not at

tanned to prepare for war but to pre-.
pare to make peace a possibility. The
balance of power is the only possible
preventative against war"
George H. Lewis, of Penn, read
many statistics, which he supplement.
ed by few remarks, saying that
each nation had row enough arma-
ment and it shor.d not be increased.
There can be but two motives in
the possession of an armament; one
is war, the other peace. A Christian
nation can have but one motive"
Joseph w. Hawfey, of Coe, stated
that "a good armament helps us make
war an impossibility. The question
is not concerning a constantly in
creasing war, but a constantly in
creasing armament. A defenseless
condition invites attack. In this
commercial age the avenues of com
merce must be kept open" He spoke
of the necessary military, preparation
and successfully closed a strong ar
gument.
Enrol D. Peckham, of Penn, closed
the argument for Penn and immedi-
ately succeeded hirrself with the re-
buttal. He put forth the idea of the
Friends that there should be no war
and no preparation for war. The
evolution of war was briefly ex-
planned and the remainder of the,
time was spent in the use of bible
quotations illustrative of the points
in hand and remarks in refutation of
scores made by the other side.
The rebuttal of VIM. N. Otto, of
Coe, was even stronger than mis- ar
gument had been and was noticeably
free from dirt flinging or witticisms.
The gentleman stuck close to the
question and the disproving of asser-
tions made by the other side.
Each speaker was allowed fifteen
minutes, and each side seven minutes
for rebuttal. The judges were Pres
ident Bradley, of Iowa College, Grin,
nell; Rev. Davies, of Ottumwa, and
Prof. Hollingsworth, of Abba. The
timekeeper"7 were the alternates for
the two sides, George w. Dunlap or
Coe. and Elmer ]. Lewis of Penn.
Just before the decision of the judges
was announced, Mr.. Dunlap, from
whose coat lapel fioated the crimson
and gold Of Coe, thanked the college
and city for the courteous treatment
received.
The best thing in the college yell
was before and after the debate. Be
fore it, Penn students shouted:
What's the matter with Coe? She's
all right! What does she need? Co
coal" After the decision the Coe rep
resentatives most fittingly hurled this
to the defeated Pennies: Take your
Cocoa"

Berlin, March 16-Thirty Russian stud ents, several of them women received yesterday and today from the police mo- tices of expulsion in consequence of par ticipating in meeting held Saturday to protest against the government permit ting Russian police agents to watch Rus sian residents in Germany. The students have from two to eight days to leave the country. and may select the frontier to cross, the government not compelling them to return to Russia, as In some in stances.
 The origin of the dispute between the government and the students, about 800 of whom are attending the university and technical schools. was the socialist accusa- ton that the government was permit ting Russian spies to search the rooms, examine the correspondence and other wise interfere with the liberty of Rus sans living in Germany. Foreign Secre- tary Richthofen, in defending the gov ernment January 19, said the Russians here were anarchists, and that many of the women attending the university or other schools were really not students but lived in a state of immortality. A few days later forty to fifty Russians pass ed a resolution protesting against these 1mputations.

 Chancellor Von Buelow, answering Herr Rebel, the sociaIst leader, on same sub ject February 2s, contemptuously alluded to the protestants as "beggars and con- spirators under the leadership of Man delstamms and Silberbaums"
 ''If these fellows do not keep quiet" said the chancellor, i've will throw them out"
 About 400 Russian students met Satur- day and signed statement reciting the utterances of Secretary Von Richthofen and Chancellor Won Buenlow Referring to the chancellor's assertion that they were abusing the hospitality of Germany, the Russians said that even guests had the natural right of resenting insults flung by their hosts.

"he undertook by referring to the Jew ish origin of part of the Russians here to arouse anti-Semite prejudices against us Count Won Buelow, the highest official of the German empire, has not scrupled un- der the protection of his privileged posi- ton to call us beggars. The fact that most of the Russians living here are of Jewish origin is due, as Count Von Bue- low well knows. to the special oppression to which the Jews are exposed in Rus sia or Kishineff. which excludes them from the higher educational institutions of their native country We regret that the twentieth century in the land of Les sing and Fiehte witnesses such disregard for the great idea of humanity. as evil bU n f-Ga fta of f he German chancellor"
