THE ADMINISTRATIONS OF JUSTICE

THE ADMINISTRATIVE OF JUSTICE.
In its final analysis the success
and welfare of all organized
society depend upon the pro-
visions made for the administra-
tiou of justice, and the fearless
ness, ability, and impartiality
with witch it is dispensed in en-
forcing the criminal laws, and
adjusting the disputes of private
litigants. There are many de-
partments, functions, and ac-
tivities of government that might
be dispensed with without serious
detriment TO the welfare of S O.
ciety, but the administration of
justice is the one thing that is
absolutely indispensable in gov
eminent if social chaos and
anarchy are to be averted.
Spaniards had admirable sub
stantive laws in force in the
Philippines, but their admins :
tration, both civil and criminal,
was fright. The judgments OF
the courts were purchasable. and
corruption and graft permeated
every department of the admins
tration. PrrSous were arrested
and held i'll confinement indeE-

even knowledge of the charge
against them; and i'll civil case.

SPECIAL SESSION
TO FACE PROBLEMS

Washington, March 19.-Congres-
sional circles are keeping a close
watch on the White House for any in
dicatiOn of a change of sentiment to-
ward the consideration of subjects
other than the tariff at the special ses-
sion which will convene early next
month. 1t has become increasinly ev-
ident that currency reform, Philippine
independence, Panama canal tolls,
woman suffrage and other leading is
sues will be forced upon the attention
of the country before the tariff ses-
sion is well begun and that it will be
difficult to withstand the pressure to
have them taken up for action before
adjournment.
The reorganization of the senate
last week constituted an important de-
velopment in the progress toward a
program of general action. The new
committees organized Saturday will
be ready to begin work before the
special session convenes upon the sub
jects that are considered of first i'm
portance.
The democrats have gotten over the
hard places in the tariff revision
scheme, have virtually finished with
the fourteen schedules of the Panye>
Aldrich law and will take up admin
istrative features of the tariff tomor-
row.

WOMAN DIES AT SEA
MURDER SUSPECTED

New York, March 19.-Through
the mysterious telephone message OF
an unknown woman to a local news
paper office a mystery of death on the
liner Oceanic with hint of possible
murder was brought to light.
Have you heard that Miss Ann
Wilson died on the Oceanic?" was the
womans question.
When told that such a cable mes
sage had been received, the woman
exclaimed: "Then she was killed by
-" giving a mans name. Before
she could be questioned further, she
hung up the receiver.
Gables from London threw little
light on the mystery. 1t was report
ed that the Oceanic sent a wireless
to Southampton just before 1t reached
that port, announcing that Miss Will
son had been found dead and that ar
inquest should be held.

Warm Days and Cool Nights Give
Plants an Excellent Start for Sea-
son.
Warm days and cool nights of the
week have been ideal for the wheat
crop of this section of the west and
farmers are more than ever before
satisfied with existing conditions.
While little rain has fallen, there has
been no high winds to dry out the
ground and the tender plants are re-
ceiving the full benefit of the mois-
ture with which the ground is satur-
ated.
In some sections of the valley the
ground is sufficiently dry to permit
of spring plowing and the farmers
who expect to do their wedding in the
spring are taking advantage of every
moment.
The fall-sown wheat has now at
tained an excellent growth and in the
light land districts is said to be pre-
senting an unusually fine appearance.
Toward the foothills some snow has
fallen during the past few nights. and
while this will not hurt the wheat 1t
will have the effect of retarding its
growth to some extent
With a few days of bright. sunny
weather, the wheat growers of the
valley express the opinion that one
may be able to "see the wheat grow"
and they are looking forward to one
of the best harvests in recent years.
