CAN SUSPEND HABEAs-coRPus
Chief Justice Gabbert of the Colorado Supreme Court Files New Opinion
 in Mover Case.

Denver, April 14.-Chief Justice Gabbert of the state supreme court. has filed a supplemental opinion in the Mover case. It is generally con- ceded that this new opinion will take precedence over the former majority opinion as the latest expression of the court.
 The chief justice declares that the governor of the state has the power to suspend habeas corpus at his dis erection and that the courts cannot review the action.
 The body of the new opinion is taken up from the excerpts from an opinion of Justice Johnson in a case in the Philippine Islands in which the power of the governor-general to suspend the privileges of the writ of habeas corpus during a state of insurrection in the province of Batangas was up held. The chief justice finds the case analogous to the situation presented in Colorado during the labor troubles and draws conclusions in which the incarceration of Mover by the mili- tary is upheld.

YOUNG IDEA SHOOTING.
a Rifle.

WASHINGTON. d. c., Oct. q
Tho War Department officials who
have TO do with tho rifle practice in
this country and who are engaged in
dcvislng means for it's encourage.
ment. are much pleased with the re-
ports which have come from New
York, respecting the successful work
in the shooting galleries of the pub
lie schools.
This Is the system of education
which the experts os the army haye
been advocating all along, an 1t is
proposed to renew next yea. tho nj.
tempt to obtain from Congress all an.
preparation of $l.O00,000 10 carry on
this work at the public schools OF al,
The large cities, at least rs far as the
fund will go toward introducing the
system into the schools OF the coun-
try.
1t Is realized That something mus.
be done to teach shooting among tue
Young In the meantime, it is a
question to- what extent the govern
ment will be able to promote rifle
practice in this country without some
special fund Cor that purpose. This
year the allotment for the repair and
construction of ranges has been ex.
hausted without the accomplishment
OF much beyond the refitting of dilap-
idated ranges at army posts.
Nothing has been saved for the en-
largement of the range at Fort Riley,
Kansas, where it was hoped to holI
the next national match, instead of mt
Sea Girt, n. j. There is n site for a
range in Ohio, but it cannot be pre-.
pared for the accommodation of
marksmen to any such extent as now
exists at Sea Girt, and as the depart
ment has no funds for Fort Riley, it
seems necessary 10 have the next
match ut the New Jersey range.
