while with her present program Great

Though at present there is not the
least sign OF uDpleasantness with
either Germany or Great Britain, il
would be the part Of folly to close our
eyes to such a possibility and fail Of
all preparation. AT the tlms OF

of Admiral Dewey, coupled with the

Diversion of Supplies from the New
Orleans Navy Yard.

There is one aspect of the eontro
versy over the New Orleans Navy
Yard that has not received the atten.
ton it deserves. This is the diversion
of material paid for out of appro
priations made by congress specifically
for the New Orleans yard. Ont
instance is a valuable electric plant
costing Sl50, 900. That such thing
should have been done is almost in
comprehensive. It cannot be too
strongly reprobated, and the point
should be emph asized and pressed
home that such proceedings are abso.
lutely intolerable. If possible, some
body ought to be called to account for
it, and the higher up he is the better.
Can it be possible that at, this day
in this country We have to wage over
again the fight for human liberty, the
successful Waging of which through
centuries past has made the English
speaking peoples the foremost OF the
earth? IF so, then the sooner we get
at it the better. All the real great
contests that have resulted in the es.
Establishment of individual human
liberty have been over the collection
aud spending of taxes. It is the very
foundation Of representative govern
ment. The money is the peoples
money, raised by their representatives,
and to be expended under the consti,
tuition and laws as those representa-
tiyes direct For any individual or
set of individuals in the navy depart
ment to undertake to set up their dis
erection as overruling the action of
congress is not only an insolent as
sumption, but also palpable viola
ton of sworn duty.
1t is a piece of insolenee for men in
The bureaus to assume that they know
more than members of congress. 1t is
TOO much the fashion to sneer at con-
gress and congressman. The fact Is
that the average of ability IN both the
house and senate rs high. Members
who by reelection serve for a long
series of years in either house remain
on the same committees a long time
and become experts. Their frequent
and continued investig ations are very
thorough. and few men anywhere have
or avail themselves Of as many
sources of information or do SO with
more judgment.
Representative Foss OF Illinois is
recognized as one of the best posted
experts in the world on naval sub
iects. When such men have passed on
an expenditure and made an appro-
priation therefor, it is intolerable that
mere executive officers, charged with
carrying out and seeing to the proper
expenditure, shall be allowed to divert
the funds to an entirely different pur-
pose.
Let anybody who doubts re read
their English history and the import.

The Carmack Assassins Convicted.


The unex pected happened in the
Cooper Carmaek murder trial at Nash
vile. After the reported announce
ment on behalf of the jury in open
court on Friday of last week that the5
had agreed on verdict of acquittal as
10 John D. Sharp, but we're hope
lessly tied up as to the Coopers, 9 the
anticipation was general that there
would be no further verdict, and that
mistrial would perforee be entered
at such time as Judge Hart reached
the conclusion that longer detention OF
the jurors would be unreasonable and
futile.
At the opening of court Saturday
morning, however, the jury appeared
and delivered d verdict in these words
ttWe; the jury, find the defend ants,
Duncan B. Cooper and Robin j
Cooper, guilty of murder in the sec
ond degree and assess their punish
ment at confinement in the state peni-
Tertiary for a period of twenty years.
Counsel for defense at once moved
for new trial and for bail, and judge
Hart fixed the appearance bonds al
S25, 900 each. Within less than al
hour bail for many times the required
amount had been furnished and The
convicted father and son were released
from custody. It is expected the mo
ton for new trial will be taken al
next week, and when it is oyerruled.
as is almost certain to transpire, the
case will be appealed to higher
court for final determination.
The foreman of the jury has ex
planned that there was no materia
difference of opinion among the mem
bers of that body from the outset Of Its
deliber ations as to the guilt Of the
Coopers, and that his remark that the
jurors were "hopelessly tied up' was
Intended to refer only to the question
Of fixing the degree of guilt and the
punishment.
Under these circumstances and il
view of the gratifying outcome of this
notable trial, The Chief takes pleasure
in Withdrawing the reflection upon the
jury implied by the following edi5oria
comment made in these columns last
week: IF the truth comes out, it Is
likely to show that the inability Of the
jurors to agree is due to their politica.
affiliations and partisan prejudices
rather than intelligent and honesl
differences OF opinion as TO the evi.
dence and facts ELECTED at the trial. :
This language seemed justifable al
the time it was written, but subsequent
developments revealed very different
state of affairs from that on which the
criticism was predieated; and it is nov
our agreeable duty to tender the
amende honorable to Foreman Burke
and his colleagues, and to express oul
hearty concurrence in the generalcom.
menda alton elected by the fortitude,
patience and Intelligent discrimination
with which they performed the onerous

less punishment of criminals of high de-
gree in Tennessee and elsewhere.

MANY CASES HERE.
Amount of Rheumatism Reported
Is Alarming.

LIS Alarming
Thousands OF men and woman who
have felt the sting and torture OF this
dread disease, which is no respecter
Of age, persons, sex, color or rank,
will be INTERESTED to know that while
for many years rheumatism was con
sidered and incurab.e disease, now 1t
| is one OF the easiest Affections Of the
human body to conquer. Medical
science has proven it not . distinct
disease in itself, but symptom
caused by inactive kidneys. Rheu.
matism is uric acid in the blood and
other waste products Of the system
which should be filtered and strained
out In the form of urine. The func-
ton of the kidneys is to sift these
poisons and acids out and keep the
blood clean and pure. The kidneys,
however, are Of sponge'like substance,
the holes or pores u which will some
times, either from overwork, cold or
exposure become clogged and inactive
and failing in their functions Of
eliminating these poisOns from the
blood, they remain in the veins, de-
compose and settling about the joints
and muscles, cause the untold suf-
fering and pain OF rheumatism and
backache, often producing cemplica-
tions of bladder and urinary disease,
weakness, etc.
The following simple prescription
is said to relieve the worst cases of
rheumatism because of its direct
action upon the blood and kidneys,
relieving, too, the most severe forms
Of bladder and urinary troubles:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half
ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce;
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces. Mix by shaking well in
bottle and take in teaspoonful doses
after each meal and at bedtime. The
can be had from any good
prescription pharmacy, and are abso-
lutely harmless and safe to use at
any time. |
