Had dugtice White Considered Party the History of the United States Would Have Been : J> Different.

CCTpecial to The Indianapolis N'sws ]

WASHINGTON, D. C., June lA.-In reviewing the recent decisions of the Supreme Court, most of the comment of a personal nature has focused about Justice Brown and bis opinions. He was the member of the court who seemingly held the balance of power, and wherever his conclusions touched, the power of tne court rested. He will always be remembered on account of his conspicuous part in the celebrated insular decisions, with

all their far-reaching consequences.

But there is another member of the court whose course In the recent decisions, taken in connection with the peculiar circumstances of his appointment to the bench, is very notable. That is Associate Justice White, an appointee of President Cleveland's second term, and the only Democrat on the bench to uphold the policy of the McKinley administration. Had he been on the other side, the three Democrats, with Brewer and Harlan, Republicans, would have given a majority against the administration in the pivotal Downes case, and the history of America would have be eft changed. Justice White himself is' one of the strongest of anti-imperialists. He to-day hopes, it may be said, upon good authority, that the United States will not keep th© PhUippines; he was opposed to the whole expansion policy as developed by the Spanish war. His decision therefore ran counter to his political views, and was that of a lawyer and judge rather

than of a Southerner and Democrat.

It has frequently been suggested that the sugar Interests of Louisiana, which are afraid of tropical competition, were prominently in his eye, but there Is nothing to support this view. Justices of the Supreme Court, of all public men, are the most removed from focal interests and personal considerations. When they go on the bench, they go for life, and as they reside in Washington the tie that binds them to a distant State becomes weak; they lose their State identity to a large

degree.

What the Lawyers Say.

It is said by good lawyers that a study of Supreme Court decisions reveals surprisingly little State bias on the part of the individual justices. Mr. White's own opinions, written in clear and forceful style, bear the marks of diligent study and careful research. Professionally, he feels sure that they will be vindicated, and that this is the Interpretation of the constitution which unprejudiced students

of the future must surely give.

Few men have become by accident members of the Supreme Court as Edward Douglass White. Two New Yorkers had failed of confirmation by the Senate, on account of the influence of Mr. Hill, and a third New Yorker to whom jthe place had been offered by President Cleveland had delayed maxing his reply until the mail carrying his letter arrived at the White House Just after Mr. Peckham's nomination had gone into the Senate. This third man would doubtless have been confirmed had his name gone in instead Mf Peckham's, but after that rejection President did not like to try any more New

Yorkers.

He was eager to have his next nomination confirmed, and so hit on the plan of having a Senator, as it is a rule of the SenAte that any of its own members nominated to any office shall be promptly con-

RICHMOND, Ind., June 16.—A sensation was caused in the Wayne Circuit Cou'-t, this morning, when attorney Samvel C. Whitesell filed with Judge Fox a formal petition asking that the court call the Wayne county grand jury in special session for the purpose of investigating certain charges made against William A. Bond, county prosecutor. The petitioner lecites that there is at the present time a public scandal involving the integrity of Prosecutor Bond, and that a public neceesity exists for the court calling the grand jury together immediately in order that it may be made known whether Prosecutor Bond is guilty of malfeasance in office. The petition is accompanied by a motion to the effect that Judge Fox appoint a special prosecutor to conduct the session of the grand jury. No specific charges are presented to the court, attorney Whitesell setting forth his reason for this to the court by stating in his petition that while such charges might be fully sustained, that by divulging them at this time witnesses wdio will be summoned before the grand jury might be influenced. It is reported that a series of charges has been prepared, and that they will be presented to the grand jury fer investigation. Judge Fox should call a special session. Prosecutor Bond Is serving his second term in office. He is a young man, and It is said he courts the fullest investigation of his public record.

He wrote to the pension authorities at Washington to ascertain the cause and word came back that Garrison was dead. This was sad news to the pensioner and he objected, because the suggestion took the practical form of stopping his pay. He wrote to the pension authorities again, saying; “The statement you make of my dsath sounds unreasonable to me. and I Insist that it is not entirely true—at least, it must be a little exaggerated.

[Special to Tha Indianapolis News.] SHELBYVILLE, Ind., June 16.—Since the plan of the township schools holding graduating exercises began It has been the practice to hold the commencements In the most convenient country church, or schoolhouse. This year the trustees of the several townships combined and obtained a tent that will seat 700 persons, it being fitted with a stage, seats and plenty of light. The dates of the commencements were then arranged so the tent could easily be moved from township to township. The thirteen commencements have now been held. Each night it was filled by thq people of the townships. County Superintendent Barlow is of the opinion that this plan has aroused interest in the district schools. A small fee at the door has paid all the expenses.
