another is international law. The
third and most important is COM

exists for emergencies. In the nature
of things it can be neither statutory

entity. When we find man who Is an

person of executive ability. An ex-

The Denison review. [volume] (Denison, Iowa) 1867-current, 1906-10-25

Until the spring of 1890 there was a
fairly successful young lawyer out in
Nebraska, at Lincoln, Mr.. Bryan's
home town. He had been Mt one time
judge advocate general of the Nebras-
ka state guard. but that fact had not
even leaked over the border into Kan
sas. He was just country lawyer, or,
rather, small city lawyer. with an
average practice. He paid a visit to
Washington. and Nebraska knew him
no more as citizen. With Cuba still
on our hands for the time being. with
the Philippines occupying both hands
quite burdensomely, with Porto Rico
taking up thumb and even tiny Guam
perchlng upon the tip of Uncle Sans
little finger, new legal complications
had arisen. The regular officials at
Washington. like Uncle Sam. had their
hands full. 1t was necessary to organ
lie the bureau Of insular affairs to
look after our island possessions. Then
so many questions as to the lawful
way of doing this or that came up that

Mr.. Meiklejohn, the assistant secretary

Magoon and had high opinion of his

without further ado.

friend. who held that nobody counts
for anything in Washington without
title. That may be true, but the title
belongs to him morally if not officially.
1t jurist is judge, then surely this
man is Judge Magoon. He handed
down-or handed up, for he passed
them along to Secretary Root-so many
opinions touching our insular affairs
that his job as law officer became real

Here is where Magoon's common sense

story of engrOssing interest to the OBJ
server of events. The story is still run

own climax, leaving the reader wonder
ing what is going to happen next. The
installment now running in Cuba adds
largely to the interest. How will 1t
end? Nobody knows, not even those
who are the involuntary authors of it,
and that is what makes the story so
captivating.
No Dummy Figure.
Governor Magoon is by no means a

through the thread of it from the sec

minor to major character That he is

any one who has followed the career
of Mr.. Magoon. He is no dummy figure
introduced for the sake of enhancing
the interest. He belongs there because
of certain antecedent circumstances
which have cut his pattern to fit the
opening.
The career of Mr.. Magoon is seven
and half years old. The man himself
is nearly forty-fve. In fact, one might
very properly boil down his career 10
a matter of two years. for until he was
designated as general counsel to the

invited to accept Il presumably humble

highly important one. Just how many

American, British, Spanish and poly
glot-to 12ake the punishments fit the
crimes, to bring cosmos out of chaos,
to keep the war department and the
state department and the president

world of lawyers knows quite we'll that
bulky book written by Magoon, con-
tanning his opinions and observations
called 'The Law of Civil Government
Under Military Occupation" which
Secretary Root caused the government
to publish. Several editions were re-
quired. 1t was something new in the
literature Of jurisprudence.
"Magoon," remarked Root, ''has been
the law and constitution and digest of,
the oriental archipelago"
Now we have the secret Of Magoon's
appointment to rule Cuba. He knows
the law of civil government under mil
itary occupation.
Dug and Plugged.
For five years he dug and plugged.
Still nobody heard of him save the
civil administrators in Cuba. Porto
Rico and the Philippines-W William H.
Taft and the others. They heard of
him quite frequently. In time the 18TH
milan canal commission was created.
Magoon was made general counsel and
claw officer to the commission, and
his name got into the newspapers.
"Magoon? Magoon? Who is Ma
goon?" asked many. 1t was new
name and had sort of funny sound.
Some wag mlsspelled 1t McGoon.
President Roosevelt made Magoon a
member Of the canal commission and
then supplemented the compliment by
making him governor Of the Panama
canal zone. The Judge" called at the
White House to thank the president
when man has won his spurs as
you have" observed the president.
''there is no need of his thanking any
body to wear them"
So down to Panama went Magoon as
governor of the canal zone. Here
again was an altogether new job. 1t
was like giving an actor place in u
play and making him create his own
character with nothing to go by except
his knowledge Of the art and his apt
ness. The zone had no code of laws.

OBEDIENT PRINCES

Shy and even haughtily severe as
she seems in public, the Princess of
Wales is, in her nursery, an ideal
mother. No children are brought up
more sanely or simply than hers.
:, Unless her official engagements
are too long and too many she eats one
meal every day with them, bathes her
babies with her own hands, nurses the
little ones when they are ai1ing and
gives the strictest care to their diet.
+ Before starting off for trip round the
world with her, husband she wrote out
the menu of every. meal to be served
in the nursery drew up a long list of
precautions and rules to be observed
by her nurses, and finally added a
series Of little tasks to be fulfilled by
each#one Of the youngsters before the
date set for her return. #5
Now, SO well during her absence did
the children respect and obey her
commands, that upon one occasion
they even ventured to oppose the
wishes Of their adored and adoring
grandmother, Queen Alexandra. This
was when the queen brought them a
box Of bonbons.
To one, child after another the
sweets were offered, but by them all
they were gently, respectfully and firm
~ refused. The eldest prince frankly
confessed he liked sweets, but that
his mother had forbidden them.
Never mind, - soothed the indul
gent queen, 81 will make it right with
mama and you can have the sugar
plums if say you may"
Little Prince Eddie stood his ground
like hero. Greatly annoyed, the
queen put the bonbons on the nursery
table, and there for months they
stayed untouched, or until the prin-
cess came home and her permission
could be asked. B FL

Every one in sthe court and outside it

she always displays toward her subjects

q personal interest in everything and

to CATCHING to receive the empress

medallion to be worn with the small
charms that the Russians always wear
suspended round their necks by tiny
