One week $ 15 One month 50 One year C 00 MONDAY AUGUST 14. 1899 TRIAL TIT AT WILL BE HISTORIC Something more than Capt. Drey tus, an officer charged with selling military secrets to another nation, is on trial in the little mediiuvnl capital of Brittany, in Fiance. The govern mental system of France is on trial. This case will show whether France, is ruled by her people or by n con clave of military officers. It will reveal whether that country is a re public or a militat' oligarchy, which is the worst form of a despotism that is possible to place in control of any people in the modern age. No other trial which has occurred anywhere, in the present century has caused the interest throughout the world which this case arouses. The newspapers of every civilized country have been giving a large amount of space to the case for several years, especially since the heroic exposure of the conspiracy against Dreyfus which was made by the novelist Zola. The proceedings of the court will be reported in as much detail by the leading English, German and Ameri can papers as they will be by those of France. Every incident connected vitti the case will be read by ever' person in the world who is within reach of the daily press. There is a general belief that this trial will be final, and that justice will be done the prisoner. The outside world believes him to be innocent, but his guilt or innocence, whichever it may "be, will soon be revealed. The fact that this trial is taking place Is a triumph for public opinion such as could not have occurred a century ago. Scores of persons were imprisoned in the Bastile and other places of detention for political prisoners in uournon, i ranee, on even more trivial charges than those on which Dreyfus was apprehended, Mai they disappeared from the world. The gates of their prisons opened only inward. There was no more .hope for their liberation than there was for the Man in the Iron Mask. Jealousy, malevolence or any other "base emotion may have immurred them, but when once the doors of their prison closed upon them they were never opened until the prisoner was carried to tho graveyard. Such a fate is not possible in the modern age, not even in Russia's Siberia, which has ceased to be a place for the confinement of political offenders. Civilization, demooracy, the creation of an intelligent and alert public opinion, have prevented repetition in our century of the lcltres do cachet death warrants by which the pompadours, the Montespans and the other parasites of the courts wreaked revenge on .their enemies. Tho world is immeasurably brighter and totter than it was n century ago or earlier, and the change has been largely de to llic annihilation of caste barriers and' the diffusion of the democratic spirit which has been forced upon the world by the precept and oxiruplc of the United States.
