Death Due to Beating.

The principal witness called was
Surgeon E. P. Stone, of the naval

account of Branch's symptoms, his
treatment and the changes in his con-
dition leading up to his death. The
death. he said, was primarily due ts
oedema Of the vessels Of the brain.

lips were much swollen and discoloE-
ed and both eyes were closed. Whez
the eyelfds were opened with ths
hand the eyes rolled and generally set
towards the left. The left arm and
leg were ,paralyzed and there was
convulsive movement in the right arm
and leg. There was slight fever. but
the pulse was normal.
THE witness said that he realized
that Branch's condition was very Sc
ri0us, and called DR.. Byrnes. chief
surgeon at the academy, into consul
tation. Drs. Finney and Thompson. OF
Baltimore, arrived during the day and
with the consent of Branchs father.
an exploratory operation was determ-
ined upon.
From the symptoms and what was
disclosed during the operation, DR..
Stone was confident that the condition
had been brought about by external
injuries to the head, such as might
have been caused by blows of the
fist. These blows could have been in
flicted on either side of the head.
Much of the remainder of the direct
testimony was on the technical points
connected with Branch's injury.

year round is what makes the protec- tive hog" It further gives the opin- ion that the hogs remain in the trough and will stay there until the country perceives that they are really and truly of the hog race. and then there may be a killing" The country found that out long ago. The News ought to know, but the Republican Party has been strong enough to allow the feet of the hogs to remain in the trough up to this good day. How much longer the performance will go on depends on the time that elapses before the Demo- crats become strong enough to clean out the gang.

THE MEANS AND THE END.

Can a right and commendable thing be done in an Illegal way? Almost one and one-third centuries ago there was quite a commotion in the ancient city of Boston. The people were much incensed on the tea question, and when the English Government sent cargo of 1t into Boston harbor and wanted to unload 1t against the protests of the people they boiled over, as 1t were, and a crowd, or mob. dumped the whole outfit into the salty seas to make tea for the fishes.
 Now that was really a riot, and an unlawful assemblage. As The Brook lyn Eagle says, '1t was trespass. larce- nv. malicious mischief. rioting and several other bad things" and so 1t was. Suppose the people of Boston. for some real or fancied grievance, should SO dispose of the cargo of some ship which had entered their harbor, would not that be mob law? and would not the laws punish the offenders severely7 Assuredly, but these early Bostonians were just as bad. from strictly legal
 
 rule of England. the tea was shipped to that port under the protection of the English laws, and the people had no more right to destroy 1t than the peo- pie of that city now have the right to destroy a cargo of coffee. They did it and the country has ever been proud of that tea party. It was held that the end justified the means.
 That was one case. but there are others. It has happened in some of our newly settled regions that the Iawless element became unbearable and then a vigilance committee would be organized and hang a few of the worst ones. That. also. was outside the law, but again the end was held to justify the means. Well, only a few days ago there was perpetrated in Phila- delphia a most abominable, shameless and infamous act, under form of law, by which the city and the people were to be robbed of many millions of dol- lars. It was not really a new experi- ence on the part of that city, but 1t was the last straw, and there was a boiling over The citizens were in- furiated and at one time things looked dark and squally for some of the boodle-grabbing aldermen. Suppose. now, that the people-the good people of the city, losing control of their tempers, had tarred and feathered, or even lynched some of the worst of them-would the end again justify the means? Well. for weeks the city of Chicago has been virtually given over to the worst elements of it's population. suppose-but why continue the argu- ment?

rxrnrs IN rHE rAsr.

Although it is not possible to make up a conclusive verdict until all the particulars are known. enough has been made public to fairly entitle Japan to the honor of being considered mistress of the Eastern seas. The Injury to the Russian fleet may not be as great as was at first reported, and 1t may be that the Japanese suffered more than the world is yet aware of. for those people have such a remarkable faculty for keeping their own counsel that 1t may require a considerable while for all the particulars to reach the general public.
 And yet enough Is known to justify the conclusion that the blow to Rus- sia is absolutely crushing. That some portion of the fleet has escaped is not to be doubted. but 1t Is beyond the power of that government to get together another fleet which will be able to seriously threaten Japanese supremacy for long time to come. In short Japan has nothing to fear from Russia on the seas and she has so con- clusively proven her superiority on the land that there seems nothing to fear from Russian land forces.
 But the important consideration to the civilized world Is not that Russia is crushed and Japan dominant, but, Is speedy peace probable? Judging from what has already been done, and basing upon that a prediction for the future we can see nothing for Russia but to at once make the best terms possible. To prolong the struggle will be madness and may be looked on as a crime against humanity. Every day that the struggle is prolonged not only makes final defeat more certain and humiliating but will have a tendency to make Japan's terms more unbeara- ble. We can see absolutely nothing to be gained for Russia by prolonging the struggle. By the aid and inter vention of other nations the defeated power may obtain fairly easy terms, but by further hostility she is certain to bring the time when Japan will dic- tate the terms of peace for both, and we can hardly expect them to be 
 favorable to Russia.
 We of the South have an almost vital interest in an early peace. The entire United States is interested. for the close of hostiltiies and definite treaty of peace will open the ports of both countries to American commerce and there will be renewed demand for the products and manufactures of America. Especially will the cotton growing sec- ton of the Union be vastly benefited by the re-opening of all the ports which are now closed, and by the great demand for cotton and cotton products. Leaving out all questions of humanity and desire for the cessation of human slaughter we of the South may be par doned for a somewhat selfish feeling of satisfaction over the prospect of the financial benefits that will accrue to us through an increased demand for our great staple. And so, from whatever point of view we look at it, we may well feel grati- fled at the prospect of speedy end of | terrible war.

WEDNESDAY, MAY s1, 1905.
IN A NEW PLACE.

That old question of States Rights occasionally breaks out in a new place, and where least expected. The latest phase of 1t comes from New England, and we hardly. think any one was look ing for it in that quarter. True, there was quite rumpus in the neighbor- hood of Hartford almost a century ago, u when the Yankee brethren talked of pulling out and leaving the rest of the country to shift for itself, but they got over it.
 The most recent exhibition of the doctrine is between New Hampshire md Vermont. These States. as all know, are separated by the Connecticut River, and down near the Southern end of the two States Is small island locally known as Gale Island. The island be- longs to New Hampshire, and forms part. of the town and township of Hinsdale. Across the river in Vermont is the town of Brattleboro. Now it happens that the residents of Gale Is- land want to procure a license to sell liquor, to which New Hampshire and
 
 test comes up from Brattleboro, and the Governor of Vermont has formally asked the Governor of New Hampshire to use his authority and influence to prevent the issuance of the license. That is the status of the case and The Hart eord Times is led to say:
 Interstate comity is very good II. Bret ata aArt ne ntN tva terference in the internal affairs of another State Is @ different matter. and rests on conception which will be- come dangerous if it should be en- couraged. It is not surprising to hear that the people of Hinsdale feel that their rights are in peril, and this with out any immediate reference to the cause they understand what this out side interference in State affairs may lead to. Objection is also, and very properly made to the attempt to have wholly the responsibility of the com mtssioners.
 The Times is correct but 1t doesn't seem to realize that 1t is using some of the same arguments that the South efn people used half a century ago, or less. At that time not only were many of the Northern States interfer- ing in our affairs. but the Federal Gov ernment was putting in in a way that called for both protests and armed resistance. Then we doubt if our friends-or enemies-In Vermont and New Hampshire thought there was any thing wrong in this outside interfer- ence, but now 1t is touching them at home they can feel 1t. There will probably not be any clash of arms, but there may come a disruption of broth erly love and comradeship. It may yet reach a point where the two Gov ernors will forget to say Here's look ing at you" when they meet. They may even have to call on Roosevelt to umpire the game for them before they can settle 1t. We are for the States Rights crowd.

Right Time 10 Cure Cafarrh.
E. G. Fowler Guarantees HyOmeI VIII
 Cure if Used Now.

The early summer when the weather becomes warm and settled, Is the best time of the whole year to treat catarrhal troubles with the expecta- ton fo complete and lasting relief.
 Everyone who has catarrh, or even tendency to catarrh, should use Hyomei now, for the benefit will be gained twice as quickly and the disease thoroughly eradicated from the system.
 The complete Hyomei outfit costs but one dollar, and includes a neat pocket Inhaler, a medicine dropper. and suf- hcient Hyomei for several weeks treat ment. The inhaler lasts a lifetime, and If more Hyomei Is needed. extra bottles can be obtained for 50 cents.
 In Montgomery there are scores of well known people who have been cured of catarrh by Hyomei. If 1t does not cure you. D. G. Fowler will return your money. This Is the strongest evidence he can offer as to his faith in the remedy. My 1-Jn Q

Will there be any limit to the height of houses? Already New York has one thirty-one stories high. and we do not suppose 1t will be allowed to overlook all other houses for any great length of time. As it stands above all others at present. so we may expect In the near future that some ambitious builder will go a story or two above this Park Row building. whether they will finally reach an altitude beyond which it will be neither safe nor profitable to go Is a question which we suppose nothing but time can determine. To those of us who are accustomed to houses of few stories a building of shirty-one stories looks somewhat like uuitting the earth entirely.
