The NcW York Tribune, in its edition OF
Saturday, takes the same view as TnE Ap-
ZEAL did of the report OF Mr.. Windes,
Master in Chancery in Chicago, in which
he refused TO recommend that an injunc-
ton 10 prevent the Anarchists from as
sombling in public meetings and speaking
be granted and made perpetual. II will be re-
mombcrcd by our readers that Mr.. Windcs
took the ground that there is no precedent
for an injunction TO prevent crime except
against property, and that IL would
be hostile and dangerous to the genius Of
our institutions TO invest police officer
having no judicial responsibility with iu-
dicial powers. There being nothing TO
show that the methods proposed by the
society 20 attain its ends are unlawful,
they must De assumed 20 be lawful. An
unlawful or tumultuous assembly can be
dispersed, but ho finds no discretionary
power in the police or the ShcriiTto prevent
the wiulasscmblagcofany class Of persons.

THE Brookhard Leader notices with un.

InE Brookhdpn Leader makes a timely
contribution Of protest against the convict
lease system, which we publish in another
place in this issue. 1t states the enormity
of the crime against justice clearly, and
logically insists that "the only remedy is
absolute control and supervision" Of the
convicts by the State itself, which can
work them to great advantage in making
public roads, OF which Mississippi is more
sorely in need than any OF the States in
this part OF the Union.

THE Louisville courts have ruled IN n suit for

you will cut off a small corner, very inn

the center, not the east, but the northern

the capital at Redtield, which stands
