MEN ACE TO THE CONSTITU-
TLON.

It becomes desirable to cali attention
to the fact that the people in whom all
power resides, have seen fit, through the
medium of the Constitution, to limit the
governmental power conferred and to
say to departments created by it: "Thus
far shalt thou go and no farther" To
secure the ends sought the people have
by the Constitution separated and dis
tributed among the three departments OF
government-the executive, legislative
and judicial-certain powers, and it is the
duty of those administering each depart
ment so to act as to preserve, rather than
to destroy, the potency of the coordinate
branches of the government, and thus Sc
cure the exercise of all the powers con-
ferred by the people
Thomas Jefferson in a letter to William
G. Jarvis, touching the perpetuity OF our
institutions, written many years after he
had retired to private life, said: IF the
three powers of our government maintain
their mutual independence Of each other,
it may last long, but not so if either can
assume the authority of the other.' 1t
must be confessed that in the course of
our history executives have employed
powers not belonging to them; statutes
have been passed that were expressly for
hidden by the Constitution, and statutes
have been set aside as unconstitutional
when it was difficult to point out the pro-
visions said to be offended against in
their enactment; all this has been done
with good purpose, no doubt, but in
disregard, nevertheless, of the fact that
ours is a government of laws, not of men,
deriving its "just powers from the con
sent of the governed" If we would have
our government continue during the ages
to come, for the benefit of those who
shall succeed us, we must ever be on our
guard against the danger of usurpation of
that authority which resides in the whole
people.

VICTIM OF
Colonel Chaves Prominent New Mexi'
CO Politician Slain.

Albuquerque, N. NJ, Nov. 29.-News
reached here Of the assassination OF
Colonel r. Francisco ChaVes, probably
the best known republican politician in
New Mexico, at Pine Wells, Terrence
county. Colonel ChaVes was the guest
of a friend and while they were eating
supper a shot was fired through a
window and Chaves fell from his chair
dead.
AS soon as possible a posse took
the trail Of the assassin. A special
train was sent over the Santa Fe Cen
trail with bloodhounds from the peni-
Tertiary, and extraordinary efforts are
being made by national, territorial and
county officers to capture the assassin.
People here believe that the assassina-
ton was the work of some political
enemy.
Colonel Chaves served as a soldier
under Kit Carson in many Indian wars
of New Mexico, and in 1861 was COM
missioned major of the First New Mex
leo infantry by President Lincoln and
afterward promoted to colonel.
In 1865 he was elected delegate to
congress and served three terms. He
had been in the territorial legislative
| council continuously since 1887. Two
years ago he was appointed by the
governor territorial superintendent of
public instruction, and was named by
| the legislature of 1903 the historian for
New Mexico. These positions he held
st the time of his death.

REVOLVING CRIME.
Murder of a Woman at Leicester,
Mass, Was Most Brutal Ever
Recorded. .

Leicester, Mass, Nov. 29.-Bruised ana
battered by fierce blows, her face pounded
into an u~nrccognizable mass, skull frac-
turcd six ribs broken, the body Of Mrs.
Emma Richards Brigham, reported miss
ing, was found in the alder swamp in the
rear Of her home.
A fierce struggle between the woman
and her antagonist, il the mute story OF
trampled leaves and scattered hen!ock
branches are evidence, took place.
a tramp who stopped at the Brigham
house two nights in September is sus-
pected of being the murderer. His de-
scription, as gwen by the aged mother of
the murdered woman, ITALICS with that of
the tramp seen in Leicester recently. He
left Leicester in September with a blue
shirt and a gold pen stolen from Mrs.
Brigham's house.
Three tramps are held at Spencer as
suspects. When the state police arrived
IN Leicester they Immediately notified the
surrounding towns TO hold all suspicious
persons, and Deputy Sheriff Draper, of
Spencer, arrested Patrick j. Stanton, Of
New York; Thomas Courtney, of Spring
field, and George Rivet, OF Burlington,
VT, and they will be held for investiga-
ton.
No motive for the crime is known. The
first theory that she had been robbed is
not borne out by investigation, for 4 close
examination OF her clothing does not show
any sign of robbery. Her mother, Mrs.
! Jane Richards. told the officers that she
supposed her daughter had $50 with her
when she lcfC the house.
The weapon with which the crime was
| committed has not been found The
woman's face was cut and bruised, her
right car torn off and six ribs were brok-
en-. The body was apparently dragged
fifty yards from the place of murder and
hidden under branches of trees and crusts
of snow.
The sclectmen of Leicester have of
fered a reward of 500 for the arrest and
conviction of the murderer.

QUARREL OVER WOMAN
New York Gambler Fatally Shot, In,
sists That His AssaiIant Was
Justified.

New York, Nov. 28.-Guy Roche, who
was fatally shot last evening, today
identified Frank FELTON, as the man
who did the shooting. Roche said they
quarreled and that FELTON, was justified
in shooting him, as he would have done
the same thing. FELTON, denies Shoot
ing E.oche. Both men are gamblers.
The police believe the trouble be-
tween Roche and FELTON,, which cullni-
mated in the shooting, arose over a
woman h a transferred her af-
fections from Roche to FELTON,. To
Coroner Scholer the wounded man re-
peated his statement that FELTON, was
his assailant, out insisted the shots
We're fired III self defense and that the
act was justifable. Roche told the
coroner he had been drinking heavily
yesterday, and while going along
Broadway he mel FELTON,. After a few
words the quarrel arose. FELTON,, he
said, tried to shoot him, but his con
dition was UGH that he only became
more angered.
Roche Threatens to Shoot.
He said he told FELTON, he was going
to shoot him and walked away to get
a gun. He returned in a few minutes
n as he approached FELTON, he put
his hand to his hip pocket to draw the
weapon he says he Ia secured. At
this movement, Roche says, FELTON,
drew his revolver and fired two shots
at him.
Roche declared he had no relatives.
AT the moment he was saying this,
however, a well dressed young woman,
who had previously called at the hos
pital and asked to see Roche, claiming
to be his sister, was waiting for an
opportunity to see him. Roche is about
35 years old and came here about ten
years ago from Kentucky.

advisable for officials OF railways to
be Stockholders in a manufacturing

ENGLAND'S DREYFUS
CASE is AT AN END
Committee Of inquiry Finds
Judge at Trial of Beck
Was Responsible.
IMPRISONED
AdoIph Beck Served Five Years for tn,
Crimes of William Thomas, and
Is at Last Given a Complete
Medication.

London, Nov. 2S.-The report Of the
committee of inquiry in the case of
Adolph Beck, who for the crimes OF
William Thomas, alias join Smith,
served a term of five years imprison-
ment in England on a charge Of obtain
ing money under false p~retenses, places
practically the entire blame for the
miscarriage of justice upo Judge Sir
Forrest Fulton, who excluded from
BeCk's trial all the evidence favorable
to the accused, and who refused. to state
the case for consideration of the higher
court. The committee finds that if the
matter could have beer brought before
the higher court the flaw in the pro-
ceedings must have been discovered
and the conviction quashed. and If
there had been a qualified lawyer in
the home office the real nature Of the
miscarriage would have been so
brought to the attention of the under
secretary for home affairs as to compel
Intervention.
Dreyfus case as the Beck
scandal has been called, has set all
Great Britain by the ears for several
months. Beck, an absolutely innocent
was convicted for the same sort
of crimes, and under circumstances
which seem almost incredible. Justice
Sir Forrest Fulton instructed a verdict
against Beck in the face of the evil
dence, even after he had excluded
everything that would have been favor
able to the defense, n then denied an
appeal. IT is said that he acted like
a mailman during the trial, and seemed
determined at any cost and any sacri-
fee of justice to convict Beck, It was
only when an exactly similar crime to
h first one was committed while ha
was in prison. and Thomas, the real Of
fender, captured and a confession
wrung from him that he was the au-
thor of the crimes for which Beck was
suffering, that the home office could be
induced to look into the affair. There Is
nothing In Dickens stories Of the cir
cumlocution or of the awful miscar-
riage of English administration IN his
day to compare with this case.

ADOPTS NEW CREED.
Presbyterian Seminary Discards the
Westminster Confession for One
of Its Own.

New York, Nov. Internationally stir
has been caused in churcEs8sircles by the
announcement, made at Mtsburg at a
society function attended by 100 minis
ters, that the Union Theological SEM
mary had discarded the Westminster
confession of faith, and that the faculty
of the seminary had accepted one their
own, by n unanimous vote. 1t was also
reported in connection with this that
gifts to the seminary of $3.50, 600 were
also announced.
F%ittsburg, Pa, Nov. 2G.-Dr. David
SchIey Schatf, professor of church his
tory at Western Theological seminary,
today confirmed the report that Union
Theological seminary of New York had
discarded the Westminster confession
of faith and unanimously adopted q
new creed.
Rev. DIR. Francis Brown of Union
l'heolcSicaI seminary said today the
board of directors of the seminary had
recently decided to fall back upon the
original charter obligations Of the sem
mary in reference to qualifications of
directors and professors. The original
charter did not require subscription to
the Westminster confession of faith.
Continuing DR.. Brown said:
The recent action of the board Of di-
rectorS IN returning to the original
charter obligations does not alter the
attitude Of the present members of the
board toward the Presbyterian church
and the Westminster confession. 1t
it possible in future to have rec.
tors who, although they are not pre-
pared to subscribe to the confession,
are earnest. Christian men. Flo years
past the seminary has had professors
who are not presbyterians."
Union Theological seminary has not
been regarded az a Presbyterian insri-
tuition in good standing since the ia
nous Briggs neresy trial. DIR. Briggs,
a member of its faculty, denied the
of Christ's divinity and took
other radical positions, resulting in the
most famous heresy trial in America
in generations. He was convicted OF
heresy. Union seminary stood with
him and has been rather independent
its views ever since.
The rejection of the Westminster
confession at this time is the more re-
markable because, at a recent general
convention of the Presbyterian church
in the United States. the old confess
sion was revised to meet the demands
those who objected to its declara-
ton Of beliefs as to predestination,
Generalization, the damnation of those
who were not of the elect, etc.
