and eventually menance the liberty o1
the people. That he was right is now
evident. These Courts are now q Law
unto themselves and but few Of them
have any respect for State laws. And
there is every reason to believe that
they will keep On encroaching on the
rights of the people until they assume
as absolute authority as the Cz.r OF
Russia.
There is no reason in the world why
Federal Judges should not be elected
by direct vote of the people for short
terms. Six years is long enough for
any man to hold an Office without re-
ferriug his claim back to the people.
There is plenty of first-class judicial
timber in this country and there is no
danger of the stock being exhausted.
The rulings of courts are not so i'm
portant as some suppose, because they
are changed with too much frequency
Life tenure of Office is not in harmony
with Republican form of government.
1t cripples the power of the people and
tends to create despotism. The will of
the people should always be the SUI
preme law of the land, and not the rul-
ings of men who are practically beyond
the reach of the people.
Mr.. Clark has chance.to distinguish
himself if he will take up the fight in
augrnated by Thomas jefferson. What
he said on this subject some weeks ago
has caused a good many people to do
some thinking. If the question ever
comes fairly before the people, life ten
ure of office will be discredited, and
Federal Judges will be elected or ap-
pointed for short terms. ms.-Jeferson City
Tribune.

An Unavoidable Issue.

1t is said by some who wish to avoid
responsibility for violated pledges, that
the coinage issue will disappear before
the presidential election.
They will find themselves mistaken.
The issue is between the control of the
currency by the people, and its con.
troll by corporations, exercising for
their own profit the sovereignty of the
people.
John Law invented the bank note
system as it prevails to-day. Its prin-
ciple is the fallacious assumption that
evidences of debt put in circulation as
money are as good as cash.
The issue is between this theory, and
the theory that the people haye a right
to have coined at the mints and circu-
lated as cash, a full legal tender and
not subject to redemption, all the bull
lion of gold and silver they can obtain.
This gives natural supply as limit
of coinage, and gives a self-regulating
currency based on scientific principles,
while the bank note circulation based
on debt and putting debt into circula
tion as alleged money, involves radi-
cal absurdity.
A bank note circulation means the
most dangerous form of imitation, and
it is also the most dishonest of all
forms of currency, because it is con-
trolled by private parties at the expense
of the people.
The National debt is coming due, and
this issue is forced to settlement by
this fact The corporations which seek
control of the currency must get il
now, or the debt will be paid off and
the mints opened, thus freeing the
people from their control.
They are making desperate efforts to
prevent that, but those who think the
people will submit and forever surren-
uef Iueit soScllS ptC'oSooiHO VI WI
trolling the currency, have studied
American politics to very little pur-
pose.
The new issue Is exactly the same
issue that was presented with the Bid
dies and their Bank of the United
States undertook to assume control o1
the country in the first quarter OF this
century. 1t will have the like out
come-a Waterloo for the Plutocracy.

: Life-Tenure Judgeships?

The attack made on the Federal
Judiciary by Hon. Champ Clark of
Missouri is but a renewal of the war
waged long years ago by Thomas
jefferson. No one has ever yet been
able to advance a satisfactory reason
why Federal Judges should hold Office
for life. Everything that may be said
in favor of this system can be made to
apply with equal force to every other
officer holder in the country, Federal,
State. County or Municipal. Mr.. JEFF
ferson feared that the Federal Court
would usurp unwarranted authority

A bill has just been introduced in
the British Parliament making it a
misdemeanor to chase or otherwise
torment animals in confinement.
1t is supposed by some that this is
aimed at the Prince of Wales who
shuts up deer and other game animals
in park and chases them for his roy
al pleasure.
If this were all, the Chronicle would
have nothing to say about the matter,
but the bill is very serious reflection
on Colonel Bob Macdonald. Vice Pres
ident of the St. Louis Humane Society,
and as it is SO, the Chronicle is obliged
to resent it.
1t is scandulous that such a bill
should have been introduced at this
time-at time when Colonel Mac
Donald's blue bitch, Cora, by Essex
out of the Maid of Ennisfallen has just
made such a magnificent run for the
Tom Young's fawn bitch, Tessa.
Undoubtedly that race was run in
confinement. A mouse could hardly
get through the cracks in the fence in
the coursing park at Brentwood where
Colonel Macdonald chases jack rabbits
with his blue, gray and fawn-colored
bitches.
Yet Colonel Macdonald is prepared
to demonstrate to the satisfaction of
any one who will listen to him that
there is nothing more humane or more
sportsmanlike than to chase jack rab-
bits inside of that enclosure.
In view of this fact, the introduction
of this bill in the British Parliament is
singularly discourteous act. 1t shows
small regard for the feelings of Colonel
MacDon aid, or of our Humane Socie-
ty of which he is an honored member.
!. Although the harm is done now to a
very great extent; although Colonel
Macdonald is put in a false position
from which he may never be able to
wholly rescue himself, yet the least
the British Parliament can do is to
hold the bill up and appoint special
committee to give him and the St.
Louis Humane Society hearing.
In the name of decency and interna-
tional courtesy, the Chronicle demands
that this be done at once. And the
demand may be set down as an ultima
tum-St. Louis Chronicle.
