General Bell is quoted as saying:

Of the wrecked car.
All the killed and injured are be-
lieved to be residents Of Santa Bar
bara. The accident was due to de-
feet in the brake apparatus. While
the rear brakes were tightly set
against the wheels. the forward
brakes were Of no service because OF
the gearing. The motorman discov.
cred that something was wrong with
the car several blocks above the point
where the accident occurred, and en-.

Boise, Idaho, on Monday committed
the sentence of George Levy to life
Imprisonment. He was to have been
hanged on Friday for the murder Of
Davis Levy In October, 1901.
The feature of the application for
clemency was showing indicating
that another man may have COM

was murdered the public administra'

purported to be will left by him.
The principal beneficiary under this
will was Harry Watkins. a furniture
dealer. II is claimed an investiga'
ton has demonstrated that the docu'

the possession of Watkins, also that
he had Levy's signature on slip OF
paper in his desk. The latter fact
was testified to before the board by
men who had been in Watkins en-
ploy. l.
The murdered man was an old

made manifest few days ago in Bel
fast, where body calling itself the
"Ulster Liberal-Unionist Association"
held meeting, at which resolutions
were adopted similar in tone and terms
to those passed at the English meet
ing,-with the further addendum that
the maintenance of the Liberal Union
list organization in power was the only
guarantee they (the "Ulsterites") had
for the safety of their rights and privi-
leges; and that the party must be kept
intact, with all its original aims un-
changed, at whatever cost. There is in
this declaration an unmistakable ring
of the old 'Ascendency" war-cry, that
indicates the true affinity of those
northern allies of the English Tories.
just now they call themselves Liberal
Unionists; as the weather grows warm
er, few months hence, we shall find
them parading and demonstrating as
"The Loyal Orange Institute" But,
under whatever banner they may ap-
pear, their spirit and intent will always
be hostile to Ireland and Irish national
interests; and it was in that sense that
Chamberlain made his desperate ap-
peal to their bigotted anti-Irish preju-
dices. That he found it necessary to
do so, however, is hopeful indication
that the vicious combination is on its
last legs.

Judge Parker is the most available
candidate yet mentioned. His posi-
ton on the bench has kept him out
OF the iactional fights of the last eight
years. He has proven himself strong
before the people of his own state
without the vote OF which no Democrat
can be elected. His decisions on ques-
tions affecting capital and labor have
been enlinently fair and satisfactory
His nomination would leave both of
the contending factions without any
real objection. If we understand the
spirit OF the Democratic masses Alright
we believe they are determined upon
getting together and fighting real
battle against the party in power. This
can be done with Parker, of New
York, leading the ticket.

Protestant ministers are beginning

OF course, heather Japan is preferable
to Christian Russia. Russia is not a
very fertile soil for Professionalism
Protestant ministers who hate every
thing Catholic, can easily prefer, hca-
thenism to the Greek Church which SO
nearly resembles the Roman Catholic
in belief and ceremony. The Russians
have separated from the Catholic
Church mainly on the question OF papal
supremacy. Catholics will understand
why Protestant ministers fear that
Russian success involves Christian
civilization. They prefer the heather
fatalism Of Japan to the orthodox
Christianity OF Russia. 1t is we'll to
keep this feature OF the case in mind
while accounting for the sudden and
unfounded sympathy OF your Protest
ant neighbors. 1t must be remember

Protective association: "The American
Spirit, the Spirit of the Age, the Spirit
of Liberty, the Spirit Of Equality, es-
pecially what Roger Williams called
Soul Liberty is able to maintain her
self in fair field and in free contest
against all corners. Do not compel her
to breathe the damp, malarial at
mosphere of dark places. The at
mosphere of the republic is the air

and the open field. Her emblem is the
eagle and not the bat"
Writing to a Mr.. T. c. Evans, who
had taken up the cudgels of the Ameri-
can Protective association, Mr.. Hoar
had this to say concerning the methods
of maintaining the principles of civil
and religious liberty: "If you think
they are best accomplished by secret
societies, by hiding from the face of
day, by men who will not acknowledge
what they are doing, and by refusing
public employment to men and women
who think on those subjects exactly
as we do, but whose religious faith diff
fers from ours, then I don't agree with
you."

says the San Francisco Monitor. The
taste OF world power politics which our
state department has had during the
last few years has evidently whetted
its desire for further mixing in in
the international game of intrigue. The
present temptation to take a hand i'll

fairs in the Orient may prove too much
for some Of our diplonatists flushed
with recent achievements in that line.
1T is a great deal easier to break into
the international game than it is to
withdraw from it when once in. 1t is
not lust the most appropriate form OF
activity for a government constituted

at stake worth what we stand every
chance of losing if successful.
