CARDINALS sTINGING REBUKE.
O'Connell of Boston Points TO Danger
of Handicapping the judiciary.

Boston, a recent dinner Car
dinal O'Connell, replying to the toast
civil and Religious Liberty" said in
part:
Justice is not founded upon votes
but upon principles. The fact that
the form OF government Is popular
franchise can no more change the
origin and foundation of law than q
plebescite can Danish God.
But the very life of the peoples
liberties, religious and civic, is al
ways in danger when the foundations
of law and the independence of
judges, be they civil or ecclesiastical,
is imperilled.
THE law is not the people-the
people are not the law. The law is
the principle of Justice governing the
people, and it's application to individ-
uals, to associations, to business, to
every relationship of civil life must
be so hedged around with reverence
and security that the civil courts may
in moments of popular passion save
the whole people from the tyranny
of lawless majorities.
Liberty, founded upon the eternal
principles of divine Justice, interpret
ed and applied in civil life by God
fearing Magistrates, untrammelled
and unfettered and unafraid of pass
ing popular passion, that, in a word.
Is the guarantee of what alone has
made this country great-perfect Sc
curity of civil and religious liberty to
all. While that lasts, while the peo-
Dle themselves realize its value be-
J yond price, this land is safe.
My words are the clear express
sions of the unbiased principles OF
all those patriots who have lived and
| died for the glory and permanency OF
! this great republic, and among ali
! these no one has voiced these sacred
| principles so clearly, so fearlessly, sc
uncompromisingly, whatever the re.
suits, as the great, judicial, importial
big hearted and cool headed states.

ton. Two years later, however, a
start was made, and the first Penn
sylvania Fisheries commission was
appointed, consisting of Col. James
NJ. Guffey, of Pittsburg, the late
Judge Howard Reeder, of Easton,
and Ben Hewitt, of Hollidaysburg.
They established the first hatchery
in Pennsylvania at the home of
Simon Cameron, Donegal Springs,
Lancaster county, and Mr.. Cheveling
was put in charge. Here is where it
came about that the present Pennsyl-
vania fisheries department is the
apostolic child of Isaak Walton,
since the four Butler boys, who are
to-day superintendent of four big
state hatcheries in Pennsylvania,
were taught to propagate trout by
Mr.. reveling-William Butler, sup
erintendent at Cory; Howard Bull
ler, superintendent at Bellefonte;
Nathan r. Butler, late superintend-
ent at Pleasant Mount, now State
Fish Commissioner, and Abraham G..
Butler, superintendent at Union City.
His Theories Spreading.
The theory OF Mr.. Creveling to
care for trout and protect them from
enemies until they can care for them
selves, has met with the appreciation
Of no less an authority than United
States Fish Commissioner George M.
Bowers, and the United States gov
ernment now sends out only finger
lings. The state of New Jersey has
abandoned the Jersey hatcheries,
which planted only fry and spends Its
money securing catchable fish. The
results have been wonderful stimu-
lation to the sport of trout fishing
in New Jersey where within the past
year or two, in free public streams,
trout have been as plentiful as in
many a preserve. Mr.. Creveling'
theory OF trout propagation has
spread beyond the seas, and inter.
ested the governments of Peru and
Sweden"

to the friends of the President to
leave no stone unturned to make his
victory an emphatic one. The

by electing Messrs. Homer Greene

The matter has a very serious aspect.
and can be palliated only on the ground
Of the youth and inexperience Of the
midshipmen. Captain Gibbons pointed
out In an order published shortly after
the game that betting was prohibited
by the regulations OF the Navy and

this to the members OF the first class
