The Republican majority in the House is too large. But a successful filibuster would be practicable In the next Congress, and If "Uncle Joe" Is Speaker and still the- enemy of the White Mountain and Appalachian, Reserve bill he ought to be called down. JEROME AND THE PITTSBURG "EXPERT." f. Not all medical experts are so inexpert as the unfortunate Pittsburg doctor who fell into the. hands of District Attorney Jerome at the Thaw trial last Tuesday.

What that gentleman didn't know about the subject concerning which he was called to testify as an authority was simply amazing. If it could be estimated In It might almost fill the biggest skyscraper. In New York! Compared with the savant' from rittsburg, Mr. Jerome is as a mountain to a mole hill. He was simply stuffed with knowledge extracted from medical libraries, and hour after hour he literally' flooded the courtroom with his He gave a really remarkable exhibition of medicolegal ability.

'Arteries, bones, organic functions, psychopathic phenomena of all these mysteries Mr. Jerome seemed to be a master. And yet no man who was sick unless he were an enemy: of; all doctors would care to have Mr. Jerome as his medical attendant. It may even' be whether Mr.

Jerome would consent to follow his own advice and be guided by his own knowledge If he were 111 But if Mr. Jerome has discredited one expert it does not follow 'that; he. will have equal success with all of. the. alleged wise men whom he may cross-examine.

The expert who is really worthy of the name, who has had long practice and experience, who keeps in touch with all the developments of medical science and, In fact, contributes to Its development, may prove the District Attorney's undoing. A man who has merely stuffed himself with theories, no matter how bright, will be at a disadvantage with another man who not only has the theories at his tongue's end, but is familiar with the practical application of them. If Mr. Jerome runs up against such an expert in the course of the trial his carefully constructed temple of knowledge may collapse like a house built of sands. It Is easy work to discomfit a pretentious ignorant man by a display of apparent learning.

But Mr. Jerome will be in real danger if he engages In a bout with a genuine savant who knows his specialty thoroughly. Let him take care lest such an expert turn the tables upon him. The actual value of expert testimony In cases in which the jury Is often appealed to on emotional grounds Is problematical. But the expert has become a feature of nearly every murder trial In which the defense has abundant funds.

The trite saying "doctors differ" Is invariably illustrated at every fight in court for a man's life where expert testimony is introduced. On one hypothesis one set of experts will reach a certain conclusion, while another set, equally learned, will reach another conclusion. How are juries affected by these differences of opinion among the savants? It would be interesting to know whether the hypnotic eloquence of the defending lawyer goes farther than the erudition of the expert on psychopathy or pathology whether the pitiless logic and invective of the prosecuting attorney carries more weight than the wisdom of the scientist.

In The Sex of Wednesday was presented an interesting statement of the price of food, cost of living and earnings in Baltimore in 1906, as shown in the report of the Maryland Bureau. of Statistics. The record indicates increase of retail prices in nearly every case and in most cases very considerable it is shown, was in 100G from 16ya per cent, dearer than in 1892. Lamb chops, fresh pork, soup beef, and breakfast and shoulder bacon were about 50 per cent, higher than in 1892; corned beef and flour 40 per cent, dearer; roast beef and lard 35 per cent, dearer; canned tomatoes and butter 30 per cent dearer, while beef-liver was 70 per cent, tea 98 per and eggs 121 per cent, dearer than 14 years ago. Prices in 1906 were very considerably higher than In 1895 and, as a rule, decidedly higher than in 1905.

The cost of living has plainly been much increased since the era of low prices, from 10 to 15 years ago, and was very markedly increased in the year just tnded. What seems not a little curious, prices have advanced more in some parts of Baltimore than in others, roast beef, for example, selling at IS cents per pound in North Baltimore, while it may be had at 10 cents per pound in Southwest Baltimore. This difference applies more or less to pork chops, steak, Iamb chops, liver, ham, herring, rice, butter, eggs, tea, coffee, tomatoes, but, strange to say, does not apply to sugar, which is highest in Southwest Baltimore. In South and Southwest Baltimore, it appears, the family of small income obtains food from 20 to 30 per cent, cheaper than in some sections where buyers average considerably larger incomes. Living is cheaper in Baltimore than In most other large cities of the United States.

A family of six persons can live "decently," it is stated, in Baltimore on $742 a year, while for New York the minimum is $S50, for Chicago $900 and for New Orleans $1,000. In Philadelphia such a family may live, according to a Philadelphia expert, for $600, but the standard of "decency" in the City of Brotherly Love may, it is suggested, be lower than here. The Baltimore family of six would spend, according to the standard fixed by the Maryland Bureau of Statistics, $1S0 for rent, $364 for food, for clothing, $20 for doctoring, $35 for coal and light, $30 for carfare, $18 for insurance and $10 for amusements and incidentals. Thousands of Baltimore families, however, live on less than $742. A table of the report shows a family of six with but $260 of income.

The teamsters and cigarmakers averaged $571 of earnings in 1906, the carter $415, the tinner $602, the furniture worker $481, the laborer $420 and the porter $375. On the other hand, bricklayers averaged $1,000 a year, the electrical worker $968, the steamfltter $879, the plumber $913. Attention is called in the report to the increase of earnings since 1904. In 1904 the teamster got but $411, the cigarmaker but $425, the laborer $325, the bricklayer but $850, the electrical worker but $770, the plumber but $650. Wages, it appears, have increased in nearly all occupations by reason of the pressing demand for labor in recent years.

The working day has 10 hours still in many occupations. In some it has been reduced to 9 hours and in others to 8. Much interest attaches to a table in the report which indicates how a given income is distributed among the various objects of family expenditure. A laborer, for example, with $64S of income, will pay $130 for rent, $370 for food, $41 for fuel, $25.75 for clothing, $26 for Insurance, $5.20 for religion and charity, $20 for amusements, etc. The facts produced have value for a variety of purposes.

Upon the whole, they show that for the poor as for the rich, Baltimore is a good city to live in, its prices and wages, as well as its climate, favoring the honest toiler. ON BACHELORS. A concerted attack upon bachelors is in progress all over the United States. The Indiana Legislature is debating a bill designed to tax them into matrimony or suicide. The Massachusetts Legislature has been petitioned to do likewise the petitioners signing themselves "The Unmarried Ladies of Wakefield," and alleging that "bachelors are of no earthly use except as pallbearers." The Supreme Court of Illinois, on a damage suit appeal, has decided that a bachelor's life is worth but $1.

The Charleston News and Courier proposes that bachelors be" debarred from holding public office. We have no sympathy with this propaganda. We deplore, detest and despise it. Time was, perhaps, when we might have joined in the malevolent chorus, but that time has passed. Forty-two years of dill-gent, earnest study have convinced us 'that an honest, well-preserved bachelor Is nature's most sublime masterpiece.

He stands alone and faces the world like a hero. He ties his own ties, he cooks his own coffee, and if needs be he darns his own socks. He is supremely beautiful and magnificently self-sufficient. A married man's life is hazardous and precarious. If his wife were to go on strike for but one week if her idleness were to paralyze the machinery of his dull, plodding existence for seven short days he would starve and freeze to death.

He Is like a little child dependent and helpless: He lives in a groove his outlook upon the universe is that of a bug in a rug. But a bachelor, with his head in the clouds, sees the whole world and knows that it is good. He has a flashing eye and a clear brain. His Intellect has a chance to evolve and expand. Trivialities do not engage him.

The greatest men in the world today are bachelors the greatest, philosophers, the greatest poets, the great warriors, orators, high jumpers dramatists, statesmen and prizefighters. Of course, there axe eminent men among the benedicts, too, but a moment's -reflection, we opine, will convince the most skeptical that they are eminent, not because they are married, but in spite of that fact. Matrimony is the natural antithesis of all that makes for Individual splendor and sublimity. Just fancy Herbert Spencer getting up the coal or Arthur Schopenhauer painting the kitchen roof All of the supermen of the past whom fate lured, by her foul arts, to the hymeneal altar remained bachelors at heart. Christopher Columbus was a married men, true but wasn't he ever willing to leave his wife for years a time? Napoleon Bonaparte was twice married, but no- one ever accused him of being truly domestic.

William the Conqueror was married also, but then all kings have to be married, whether they desire it or not. George Wash-ington avoided matrimony for years and then married a widow. It Is unfair, we sub nibal, Oyama, Richard Cceur de Lion, Henry VIII, Galileo, Shakespeare all of these men had wives, but any fair student of history will tell you that they regretted it and tried to forget it. The bachelor is the apex and flagpole of the cosmos. All the rest of the world exists merely that he may live and have his being.

When the deep woodlands are drifted with snow, When the flame roars and we dream In the light Of the chimney's warm glow in the wild winter night, Out of the story book hooded in red You come as you did in the day3 that have fled: Little Red Riding Hood, better beware Of the drifts in the woods, of the wolf and the bear! Little Red Riding Hood here on my knee Little ears list to the story of thee. Little eyes open in wonder and fright As the wild winds go roaring away in the night; Little hearts beat for you there In the wood, With your basket of dainties, your wonderful hood; Little lips utter for you a sweet prayer, That you may be saved from the wolf and the bear! Dear-little maiden, we know what you'll say To the wolf In the bed in the story's old way, How your grandmother's arms with their length will astound And her eyes like two coals of red fire will be found; And you'll say: "What big teeth!" and the Avolf will reply: "The better to eat you with!" then you will fly, And the woodmen will come just in time to prevent The beast from performing his wicked intent.

With your cheeks of the rose and your lips of the dew!

Little Red Riding Hood darlings look up When they hear how the wolf on your form yearned to sup, And out of the shadows of childhood to me I watch you go down to the woodland in glee, Your little bright basket of dainties on arm, Your innocent joy in the absence of harm Ah, dear little vision, forever beware Of the drifts in the woods, of the wolf and the bear!

1907. FOURTEEN PAGES. MR. OLNEY DISAGREES WITH THE PRESIDENT ON JAPANESE TREATY RIGHTS. The treaty of 1804 between thevUnIted States and Japan was concluded during the second administration of President Cleveland.

Hon. Richard OIney, of Massachusetts, was Secretary of State at that period. Mr. Olney's Interpretation of this treaty is very different from that which Is given to it by President Roosevelt. In a letter to Representative MeCa.ll, of Massachusetts, Mr.

Olney denies that Japan has the rights under the treaty which are claimed at Toklo and at one time apparently conceded at Washington. It is contended on behalf of Japan and the validity of this contention will be decided by our Federal courts, unless an agreement Is reached otherwise that the segregation of Japanese school children In San Francisco is in violation of the convention of 1804. Mr. Olney denies that Japan was granted any special right In respect to American public schools. On the contrary, he maintains that Japan expressly waived this right and others not distinctly granted in the treaty in Article II of that instrument, which Is as follows: It is, however, understood that the stipulations contained in thi9 and tho preceding article do not in any way affect the laws, ordinances and regulations in regard to trade, the immigration of laborers, police and public security, either in, force or which may hereafter lie enacted in cither of the two countries.

It is Immaterial, In Mr. Olney's view, how much of the police power is vested in the' several States and how much In the United Stales. However this power may he divided as the result of our dual government, "the whole power is excepted from the operations of this treaty, so that there remains to each State, as well as to the United States, all the police power, either had before the treaty was conclpided." Article II of the treaty embodies an expressed declaration that the stipulations of the preceding article are In no way to affect laws, ordinances and regulations with regard to police and public security. The regulation of Its public schools, Mr. Olney asserts, is an exercise of the police power belonging to each State.

"What California! has chosen to do with reference to the San Francisco public schools raises no question under the treaty with Japan and is a subject matter with which the national Government has no right to concern itself." Mr. Olney concludes with this strong and unqualified assertion of the rights of California The entire police power of the country, being reserved by the treaty in favor of the United States or the several States and the establishment, maintenance, and organization of the public schools of each State coming under the police power of that State exclusively, Japan is wholly without cause of complaint against California by reason of its public school system, and the United States is without legal ground of interference with that system vi et artnis or otherwise. Mr. Olney's letter adds strength to the argument against Japan's claims under the treaty of 1S04. Even without Article II, which the able New England lawyer and statesman pronounces an express waiver of any rights in contravention of the laws and regulations In regard to police and public security, that argument seems conclusive.

The average American Is utterly unable to accept the extraordinary theory that the national Government can by treaty interfere with the school regulations of the several States when it cannot exercise similar powers directly by an act of Congress. Americans of the type of Mr. Olney hold fast to the fundamental principle of the rights of the State; they do not believe that the Federal Government should usurp the elementary rights of a State either by treaty or otherwise. This feeling is deeper and more widespread than our statesmen of centralizing tendencies seem to realize. Not even the blunt declarations of Secretary Root or the more cautious statements of other advocates of more power for the central authority and less power for the States in their proper spheres of government can make thoughtful Americana believe that the public-school regulations of the several States ought to be determined by treaties between the United States and foreign powers.

It may be regretted that a question has arisen which has caused embarrassment to two friendly nations. There would have been less embarrassment, probably, If our Government had met the Issue frankly and courteously, after careful consideration, by explaining to Japan that public-school regulation Is a matter which concerns the several States exclusively. Instead of this reasonable and. practical way of discussing the question, the President made statements which gave Japan a misleading Idea of the situation and seemed to place California absolutely in the wrong. Our dual form of government may not be approved by foreign governments.

It may cause embarrassment at times both at home and abroad. But It ought to be made clear to other nations that there is no Immediate intention to give up our present system of Federal and State government; that the States, are. not yet willing to their autonomy and to transfer their powers which are still numerous and Important to the Federal Government. Then the foreign powers which may make treaties, with 'In the future will be in no doubt ns to the rights which the national Government can give them and the privileges which the national Government cannot grant them in so far as the rights of the several States are concerned." IIOSTON ANGRY WITH UNCLE JOE. Evidently the bill for the White Mountain and Appalachian reserve has strong friends in New England, for our esteemed Boston contemporary, the Herald, is now urging the Congressmen from the South and from New England States to engage in a filibuster to bring Speaker Cannon to terms.

"Uncle Joe" is "agin the bill," for the present at least, but he seems to be the only public man of importance who Is opposed to it. President Roosevelt has given strong indorsement to the measure. The various commercial bodies and trade associations of the country are in favor of Its passage. But "Uncle Joe" stands firm as adamant. lie has set his Xacc against legls-lEtlon for these forest reserves.

If It were a bill to Increase tariff schedules he would give it the right of way. Business men from North and South have appealed in vi In to Therefore, our Boston con-iomporary advises a filibuster in which South Carolina and Massachusetts shall vasp hands and Jointly be as disagreeable as possible to the Speaker.

9 to Siuodajrsi. 10 to 2 Ujjp. honey jJ zen the right of petition, and these letters to Congressmen are in the nature of petitions. The Naval Personnel bill now before Congress has been approved by the Navy Department, the President and a great body of naval officers who believe that the best Interest of the service requires the enactment of this bill or some similar one. It seems that naval officers have been writing to their Representatives upon the subject of tnis present bill and that this has given offense to Senator Hale, of Maine, and that gentleman has Introduced a resolution providing for an inquiry into "an alleged combination of naval officers" to influence legislation.

According to the present system the higher grades in the service can only be reached by men who are approaching the age of retirement. An officer reaches the rank of captain when his head is getting gray, and he has to assume the position of grave responsibility after he has become habituated by long years of subordinate service to dependence upon another. No position requires theeducafionof experience to a greater degree than that of fleet commander. And under present conditions there can be no fleet commander of long experience because the highest rank is merely the anteroom to retirement. This has long been recognized as a weak spot in our navy.

Years ago efforts were made for remedial legislation, but in vain. The pending bill Is intended as a remedy, and It is most natural that naval officers should desire to write to Congressmen to explain the necessity of the measure affecting the service. Another subject connected with the naval personnel is the proper treatment of midshipmen. As soon as the army cadet graduates he gets his commission as an officer In the army and the pay of his rank. When the midshipman graduates ha is assigned to the duty of an officer and kept at it two years before he gets an officer's rank or pay.

This is unjust to the Individual and prejudicial to the service. Remedial legislation has been urged upon Congress from time to time, but nothing has been done It is not fair, nor Just, nor legal for Mr. nale or anyone else to undertake to deprive naval officers of their constitutional right of petition. If, however, naval officers go beyond this privilege and engage in combined lobbying, that would be another matter, to which the Senator from Maine might properly address himself. THE THIRD DEGREE.

"Our Country," a magazine published in Louisville, prints an article by Mr. John G. Edson which is of a decidedly startling character. If Edson Is correct in his statements, then an inviting field for reform is presented to Christians and all decent people here in this country without having recourse to Russia or Armenia. "The third degree," or the "sweatbox," as it is also called.

Is the method adopted by modern detectives and officers of the law to compel accused persons to confess. In ancient times confessions were extorted from accused persons, Innocent and guilty alike, by subjecting them to the unspeakable tortures of the rarck and the thumbscrew. Is It possible that any treatment of persons accused of crime in this humane age can be In any way comparable with the atrocities practiced four or five centuries ago, when human rights had hut little recognition and human suffering excited but scant sympathy? Mr. Edson declares that there Is, and as evidence of the existence of this modern torture he cites the authority of a Chicago lawyer who has found records of 117 executions for murder in the last 20 years where the accused were hung upon their own confession of guilt, and after the unfortunate men had been put to death it was ascertained that no crime had been committed. The persons supposed to have been murdered were still alive.

In Chicago, It Is charged, the prisoner is beatem violently until he confesses. His teeth are loosened, his nose is broken and the beating is administered from time to time until a confession is obtained. In New York, it is alleged, still more cruel methods are used, such as keeping the prisoner awake for long periods, having bright lights shine.
