COURTS AGAINST THE UNIONS.
!, A judicial Strike at the Rights Of La
Dor Organizations.

N~kON~@@@~N1"-~~'~-
The ruling Of Judge Ricks, Of the
United States court at Toledo, upon
which he ordered Chief Arthur, OF the
Brotherhood Of Engineers to abrogate
the boycott clause in the constitution Of
his organization, so as to not interfere
with the business of railroads, caused
sensation among the legal fraternity sf
we'll as among members Of the different
trade and labor organizations.
Grand Master Sergeant, OF the Broth
erhood Of Locomotive Firemen, said:
81 never for a moment dreamed that
such a ruling was within the bounds Of
law, and if il is I am surprised that the
able lawyers who assisted the Chicago,
Burlington & Quincy road in their ST.
100000 strike did not discover 1t. II
Judge Ricks enuncisted the law, it is q
death-blow to labor organizations. II it
is certain that / am to be held liable FOR
damages resulting from an order to
strike, am not going to order any
STRIKE"
Chauncey M. Depew, president Of the
New York Central, and standing candi-
date for president, seemed to thiuk it
was going little beyond judicial author
ity. He said: Seriously, I think the
decision a most surprising one, but I
could not discuss il without getting the
full text Of the decision and studying it.
There are many things in law which are
largely decided by precedent. No one
knows exactly in how many ways the
law can be interpreted until certain exi-
gencies arise. Discussing the decision
pro or con l am not prepared to do it."
This wonderful ruling was made on
the 10th in response to an appeal from
the railroad companies which were
threatened with a general tle-up because
the Ann Arbor road, whose engineers
and firen on were striking for increased
pay, announced that it would send cars
to them for shipment under the inter-
state commerce law.
The chief delayed action and the next
day five Lake Shore engineers and three
firemen quit work when ordered to
handle Aun Arbor cars. They claimed
that they had resigned voluntarily, but
the matter was taken before the court
and the arrest Of Lake Shore men for
contempt Of court was ordered. The
trial of the eight men has been in pro-
gress for the past three days, and the
fight has already assumed national pro-
proportions. Chief Arthur has received
letters from union labor leaders all over
the country to stand firm, and the very
best Of counSel has been employed by
him. An adverse decision will result in
the case being appealed to the United
States supreme court, as lsboring mon
hold the very essence Of unions is on
trial.
THE RULE OF THE BROTHERHOOD.
During the examination Of ]. B. Wat
SON, one of the brotherhood grievance
committee yesterday afternoon, Chief
Arthur handed to Attorney Hurd the
following as a copy Of the rule Of the
brotherhood under which the Lake
Shore men had quit work:
That hereafter where an issue has
been sustained by the grand chief and
carried into effect by the Brotherhood Of
Locomotive Engineers, it shall be recog-

Sharon Items,

On Monday. the 25rd, a very painful acci-
dent happened to Charles Solf. He was NOV
ing his threshing machine across a creek and
it became necessary to back his engine in or
der to get more force. As he backed up he
was caught by the throat and breast between
the engine and separator in such a manner
that he could not breathe and the lever which
is used to control the engine was so pressed
against Mr.. Soils breast that the engine could
not be started ahead to get him loose until the
men who were with him had chopped away
some of the woodwork. AS soon as the engine
was started. Nj. SolI was FakeI4 out unoon-

CrownHill cemetry. Indianapolis, Ind,
her home previous to her marriage.
She was taken ill very sudden and in
less than two days was relieved from
pain by death. Her maiden name was
Jennie Shipley. Her funeral was well
attended, many of her old friends came
TO see her for the last time and they
entwined her coffin in the finest flowers
that could be gotten, in the mid die of
which were woven of flowers. the word
SISTER.
Why isit that the best and most
cheerful and all that makes homes the
happiest place on earth, should be tax
en- away so soon, no one knows except
God; but we have one great consola
ton, and that is we can meet our dear
ones and relatives one day. Mrs.
Bloom lived only little over year
after her marriage, but no home could
have been more happy or pleasant than
her home was. She was an idt al COM
panion.
Mr.. Bloom had lived in junction City
only about two months. He was form
erly a furniture dealer in Deming, New
Mexico, but had removed his home and
business to junction City. He is now
visiting his parents and relatives in
thiscounty. He has the sympathy of all
in his bereaYment.

From Col. Garrison.

A letter from Col Garrison, dated the
9Th, contains the following items of in
terest.
Our trouble has taken chronic form.
The future must solve the problem as
to the value of certificates made by ev-
cry conceivable manner Of fraud. They
are acting as though they were going
to hold out to the end. Two demo-
Gratis are ready to come back and ans
wer to our roll-call. Tom Chambers Is
between two fires, and would like to be
home. You see the opposition has
made call for money to nelp theDI
''Stand up for Kansas" This is only to
cover up their tricks. The railroads
are paying them, and we will prove it.
We are doing some committee work,
and will have some bills ready of i'm
portance, that will 90 through when
we start them. We agreed on Worlds
Fair bill, Friday night. with the senate
committee, that will likely pass.
The railroad bill is good one, and
in good shape TO go through. Several
have been presented, but Campbell of
Stafford has one prepared by Gen.
Bradshaw that call good. Campbell
frets too much about the muddle and
gives the opposition some comfort. He
IS serving his fourth term. am not
on the railroad committee but in good
shape to get some work in. The bill
will make bigger reduction than the
one prepared two years ago. We have
prepared and offered good bill from
our room, by Doubleday, to set aside a
sale for inadequate price. Doubleday
boards with me and is one of the best
members of the house.
We had an interesting case Friday
before the election committee. We
showed one of the Legal House" that
he lived in Oklahoma, We had the pa
pers on him and his own oath made
last summer. He said his wife was
sick and he must 90 home. He went.
do not look for him back. He was
asked to resign. He said he was afraid
to. Said that Douglass told him TO
serve out the time and help keep their
organization and he would not be pros
ecuted. If he does not put his resigna-
ton on file, am going to cause him to
lose some sleep. This man is Chrisman
of Chataqua county. We can not get
any ballots where the clerk is republi-
can. This will save some of their men.
We have been trying for ten days to
get the ballots from Mcpherson county.
Yours, in hope that 1t will come out all
right.

Endorsement.

The following petition has been cir
culated during the past week for the
purpose of ascertainlng the real senti
ment of those who elected MI. Garrison
and Mr.. Lands. The names it has re.
celyed are proof positive that our choS-
en- representatives have not misrepre-
scented us.
RESOLVED, That we, the undersign-
ed citizens of Barber county, hereby
express our approval and gratitude to
our State Senator H. S. Lands and oul
Representative VIM. Garrison, fol
their untiring and able efforts since
they have been at Topeka, for the
course they have taken in sustaining
the populist house, and for the good
judgment they have exercised iu sup
porting John Martin for U. S. senator;
believing as we do that his untiring eff
forts for the populist party, the senti-
ments he has expressed regarding their
platform and principles, and the stress
of peculiar circumstances, all make
him the proper and logical candidate
for that position.

WAS NO ELECTION.
A Decision of the New Jersey Supreme
Court Knocks Out Tuesdays Election.

A Decision of the New Jersey Supreme
Court Knocks Out Tuesdays Election.
TRENTON, N. j., Nov. 11.sThe deci-
sion of the supreme court of this state
declaring the present legislative appor-
tionment unconstitutional, has caused
great CONSERVATION among the lawyers
and politicians at the capital, and will
cause restlessness among the assembly,
men elect.
Governor Werts, Justice Albeit of the
supreme court, and Prosecutor of the
Pleas Bayard Stockton were in confer
ence on this important subject, but
would not disclose their conclusions.
Assistant Prosecutor w. Holt Apager,
was seen and said:
1T appears from the decision rendered
by the supreme court that the ouly
legally elected members of the house of
assembly were those from the seven
counties of Atlantic, Cape May, Glouces-
ter, Ocean, Salem, Somerset and Sussex.
This being SO, under section 1873 Of the
election law, Revision of New Jersey,
page SCI, it is mandatory upon the gov
ernor to call special elections in each of
the counties where there are no legally
elected members.
eff the governor should be advised by
the attorney general that this was the
correct view of the case, then the cleo
ton of Tuesday in all the other counties,
saving the seven mentioned above for
members of the assembly, is void, and in
each of those counties ticket would be
formed including the names of the entire
number of candidates for assembly in
the county and be voted for by every
voter in the county.
