JUDGE NooNAN, of the st. Louis court
Of criminal correction does not believe
in curtailing the freedom of speech in
order to avoid some possible evil to
come. Oftwo evils he chooses the least,
and considers it better to allow the free
expression Of opinion even though it
lead to some overt act requiring the in
terposition Of the courts. This opinion
comes from the judge in the cases of
those charged with being anarchists; the
judge holding that anarchy is no crime
until an overt act is committed. The
St.Louis Republican takes issue with this
opinion Of the judge and reads him out
Of court as ward politician on account
of it. Sentiment is one thing, legal
opinions founded on constitutional
rights are something else.

The opinion grows confirmed by the
decision Of every State whose supreme
court has passed upon the question, and
now by the decision of the United States
supreme court, that legislation by a
State against rate Determinations on
freight which is transported continu-
ously over several States is in contra
vention of the constitution. The regu-
lation OF rates over these continuous
lines must be, by congress, if at all, as it
is Of a general and national character
and congress alone has the power to
regulate commerce. As to the scope of
the principle the supreme court itself
seems undecided, the chief justice and
two Of his associates dissenting from the
opinion Of the majority of the court.
The question Of the regulation OF inter-
state commerce is one Of the great and
grave questions of the future, and some
solution OF it is imperatively demanded
In the interests of shippers.

The southern planters are agitating
the question of decreased cost in the
production of cotton as indispensable to
its profitable growth. Among the
changes proposed are less hoe and more
mule work; perfected machinery for
picking; spinning mills side by side with
the cotton fields. In this way it Is
argued that between the cost of produc-
ton and prices received, planters will
net as great profits as before the war.
Another important factor is the control
OF the cotton seed by the oil monopoly
which puts Its own price on every ton
Of cotton seed marketed. If this mon
opoly could be broken down there would
be as a result an additional profit on
seed. The great difficulty lies in the
fact that the Cotton Oil Trust company
owns the patents for the new process
which increases the yield of oil about 80
per cent. By this means they can re-
duce the price Of oil below the POSSIBLE
ity of competition and still manufacture
at profit.
