AS long as lawyers assume 10 tell

Unfortunately this sort of business

of means. Perhaps the lawyers who
are doing most to dishonor their pro-

sen. Owens OF Oklahoma struck the
keynote OF the policy of honor and
wisdom which the president has
adopted with reference to free tolls
for American ships when ne said that
the conscience or no democrat is
bound by the Baltimore platform ON
the tolls question. because it does not
represent the sober Judgment of the
party.
The platform utterance on canal
tolls has been found To be antagonis-
tic 10 the public welfare It's adoption
by the convention came without due
consideration OF the responsibility in
volved. II Is plainly in contrayen-
ton of the terms OF the 4ay-Paunce-
Tote treaty with Great Britain. which
provides that the Panama canal shall
be used BY the shipping Of all nations
on terms OF equality.
The meaning of this clause OF the
treaty is plain Ii is not susceptible OF
ether construction than that all yes
sells using the canal shall pay toll ON
the same basis basis OF equality,
and the mere fact that the demo-
cratic platform pledged the party 10
q contrary policy has no binding ef-
feet. The pledge is no more valid
than q contract which conflicts with
other contract or provides that
something shall be done that IS i'm
possible
IN its consideration by congress On,
question has lost its partisan slcuid-
canoe. There are democrat rcru5li-
cans and progressives for and against
free tolls FOR American coartw e

THE ALASKA RAILROAD.

There is only one feature Of the
Alaskan railroad bill which may prove
To- be Objectionable. Instead of max
inc "a lump appropriation of the thirty
five "a forty millions to be authorized
il viii. according to the present terms
Of the bill. deyolve upon congress to
make appropriations on estimates
from year to year.
In this provision there are posi-
hilities OF obstruction and delay
through the opportunity afforded the
enemies Of government ownership Of
railroads in Alaska and OF public
utilities generally TO contest apprOpri-
atoms The intent of the legislation
now being completed can scarcely be
made strong enough TO prevent this.
"-,abbers Of natural resources wiz let
no chance slip 10 defeat the purpose
Il government in this undertaking.
The success of the enterprise means
IN end of wholesale public robbery in
Alaska, and it may also smean a wide
extension Of the principle Of govern
nent ownership. Against these en-
GT0aCnnlEnlS on ltluS o. private ell
terprise the whole power and force of
big business will be arrayed. Every
vulnerable spot will be attacked and
none will be more vulnerable than
the annual appropriation to meet the
expenses Of construction and opera
ton.
The danger Of obstruction and in
terruption of the governments plans
in Alaska may not be as great as it
seems. The pressure of public senti-
ment i'm favor Of prosecuting the work
vigorously and swiftly may be suf-
hicient TO repulse the attacks of pri-
Vate interests. but it looks to the
public spirited observer as if congress
is taking an unnecessary chance.

THE SACREDNESS OF PLATFORM
PIANkS:


The Bay City Tribune a stand pat
republican paper. is transferring its
approximations for the country because
of the Underwood tariff bill to a So
licitude for the democratic platform
as laid down by the Baltimore conven-
ton.
1t charges bad faith to the party
and its leaders if any change is made
in the Interpretation of those different
planks
1t seems to abhor change.
But it was silent when the Payne
Aldrich combine put through con-
Sress its rendition of the promise of
the republican platform of 1898 for a
revision of the tariff downward, which
resulted in SO many outrageous ad-
Vances on tariff rates, that the country
revolted. and at the first opportunity
changed the character of the house,
and at a later date made the policy
symmetrical by sweeping the republi-
can party from power in all the
branches Of the government
only the beneficiaries Of that in
iquity strove to justify the action, eX-
cept the unfortunate Taft. who de-
Tended it from the stress OF supposed
party regularity, and by that defense
placed himself in opposition to the
prevailing sentiment of the country.
In addition TO the efforts of the in
tereSted recipients Jnere came the
futile efforts Of such party organs as
the Bay City Tribune. who were and
are obsessed with the belief that the
republican party could do no wrong,
platform planks to the contrary not
understanding.
There is no parallel between the two
situations. and the difference Will be
extended to the receptions given each.
The first was distinct betrayal OF
the promised relief TO the people. the
other is a recognition of the force of
a treaty obligation with a friendly
government. and further prevention
of an immense concession TO a ship
ping trust which at present has,
through dockage rights and an over
riding organization, an almost UNI
breakable monopoly of the cOastwise
carrying trade of the country.
There was universal condemnation
for Taft and the republicans; there is
a corresponding appreciation for the
position of Wilson and his supporters.

CAPITAL PUNISHMENT N INDI-
ANA 4 RETURN To BARB ARISM.

Indiana has taken it's backward
step The electrocutiOn Of those two
men at Michigan City early this morn
ing tells the story. Two governors,
J. Frank Hanly and Thomas r. Mar
shall. by the use OF constitutional au-
thority vested in them 20 commute
sentences, banished capital punish
ment from the state since 1907, but
Gov. Samuel NJ Ralston has permit
ted it TO come back
The excuse that the last legislature
electric chair for the gallows is insult
ficient It was argued in making the
substitution that capital punishment
was needed for especially aggravated
cases. but the governor has read into
the law a different meaning.
III we read his letter 70 Warden

approach 10 proof OF innocence 10 ex-
cite executive clemency in the eXecu-
tive. rather than evidence of particu-
lar aggravation. in order to get him

We must put that down as con-
dition Of the governors mind. in
which. apparently. some of the cob
webs Of barbarism still continue to
Turk. He could have saved the two
men had he wished saved them, at
least for natural deaths, and that
without violating the law. the ex-
pressed intent OF the legislature at the
time the law was. and IL appears.
without outraging any public dignity.
Efforts 10 prevent the execution of
two murderers were made as protest
against capital punishment in the
state rather than as an attempt to
condone or belittle the acts commit
ted by the condemned men.
These efforts failed to gain their
end in this instance. but the strong
and widespread expression of public
sentiment against capital punishment
will have its effect on future verdicts
of juries. sentences Of courts and leg
islative acts
II was quite clearly demonstrated
that the people of Indiana do not
favor the death penalty, and if popu-
lar opinion has any influence on legis-
lation the law authorizing the taking
OF human life is likely to be repealed.
The viewpoint on crime has expe-
rienced a redicaI change in late years.
Not that criminals are held less re-
sponsible for their acts. but that the
purpose now is 20 reform rather than
punish them and that human life has
gained a new value in public apprecia-
ton Of the responsibility of taking it.
The Mosaic law of AN eye for an eye
and tooth for "A tooth" is regarded
as a relic OF barbarism and not con-
sistent with modern consideration for
human frailties
As man cannot Great life his right
To destroy it, legally or criminally. is

sibility to assume on the strength OF

than a century.

THE SITUATION AT ST. CASDNIR'S.

THE SITUATION At ST. CASIMIR'S.
Editor News-imes:
Your attitude toward the half riot
Gus west end section Of the city is very
commendable The tone of the press
throughout has been temperate and
helpful. Maybe "A line or two TO ex-
plain the issues will prove helpful to
your readers.
In the first place the clamor about
church property being vested in the
bishop is childish AS we know. ev-
cry church-Catholic or protestant
is temple of religion, dedicated TO
God. Its only purpose is TO serve as
a place in which 10 worship. The
bishop holds the property in his name
being, in sense. Gods representative.
For every practical purpose the church
belongs to the congregation that uses
1t. For legal purposes. and to pre-
serve order. it is found more con-
Venient TO have the bishop. as head
of the diocese own" all church prop
crty. Will st. Casimir's cOngrega-
ton be richer if that ownership were
transferred To il?
The church is a temple of God to
be used for the worship of the people
no matter on whom the title is vest
ed. Every Catholic parish property
in the diocese is vested in the bishop.
For every practical purpose it is the
peoples property TO be used by them
in giving honor to God. The accident
of vested right is of no moment. II
is for their use which the bishop holds
in trust for them. What do they care
whether trustees from their own body
or their trusted superior owns the
title? In either case ownership is
practically the same. The church is
still Gods church. a place of wor-
ship for the use of the people.
In the seconazpiace, well instructed
self respecting Catholic people are
not accustomed to demand" this OF
that priest. If every Catholic con
greg9tion were to demand" just the
man it takes a fancy to, cOnceivably
all congregations might pick on the
same man and il would be a case &C
to the highest bidder If / have fol
lowed the case correctly two or more
priests We're suggested for St. Cast
mfrs parish. But st. Casimirs parish
would not give or take. 1t insisted
that the bishop OF this diocese walk
bareheaded under the yoke and sub
