The tact of appealing to the courts In

others OF nature not relished is illustrated
Dy the stakeholder who has got an inJunc-
ton against closing the gates of theWorld's
FAR on Sunday. This Injunction is not
granted on the conceivable ground that
MI. Clingman Is interested financially in
the success OF the exposition, but simply
because as citizen and a taxpayer he is
interested in the parks. and it is held that
there is no right to withdraw from puollc

pelling. Sunday closing. and if there were
such a law, apparently it could not be en-.
forced. Now that the great question OF
what shall be done on Sunday has got into

Another trust seems to be weakening.
There is too much plate glass in the mar
ket, and two factories in Indiana have
ceased operations. They sustain prices by
policy of idleness. This process does
not materially differ from that of miners
who sometimes take holiday two oil

duction and exact better wages for the
hours they do toll. Glass is comm obi ty

step outside and do a little com petition is
irresistible, and when there is a glut and
works are closed the contributions which
the other partners must make are apt to be
discnuraging. Monopoly is not always
