ALnaAL CUR1osfTY.

The Supreme Court Of Tennessee re-
Gently handed down a decision that is
likely to excite widespread comment
and considerable dissension. The whole
sale grocers Of Nashville have an asso-
citation with an obligation binding its
members to not buy from any importer
or manufacturer who sells to retail mer-
chants. Evidently the object Of this
obligation is to improve the business Of
the members OF the association by secur-
ing to them, in a measure, a monopoly
in the handling Of certain lines Of goods.
Aretail merchant broughtsuit against
the grocers' association, claiming that
its action was a restraint Of trade and
commerce and that he had been injured
thereby. The court decided for the
plaintiff.
To minds not befogged by legal soph-
istries, this decision will seem lacking
in common sense. 1t is so broad in it's
scope that If it is to stand and be gen.
orally adopted il will abolish nearly
every form Of associative effort. Be-
fore it labor unions, farmers alliances
and an other organizations Of that char
acter would go down, and it might even
be so construed as TO affect mercantile
partnerships.
1t requires good deal of legal jug
glery 10 make it appear that an action
that is right when done by an indivld-
ual is wrong when performed by two
or more individuals. No one will deny
to the grocer the privilege Of electing
from whom he will buy his goods. II
one man has this right, so have two, or
a hundred, or a thousand, or entire
communities. There can be no limit
placed upon such action, without first
abrogating the individual right.
The object Of the grocers' association
was to secure an advantage in trade by
refusing to purchase their goods from
certain parties. Strictly in line with
this are the objects Of farmers ALI
ances and labor unions. The latter arc
based upon the inalienable right OF the
individual to decide for himself whether
be will work or not work.
Carried to it's logical results the de-
cision Of the Supreme Court of Ten
nessee would abolish all cooperative
associations, a condition entirely at
variance with modern ideas OF personal
liberty and progress.

MORE ROFTENNEss.

On the heels Of the disclosure Of eX-
travagant allowances to officials Of the
Bering Sea Commission, come charges
OF favoritism and extravaganza in the
Agricultural Department. A special
from Washington in the Pittsburg Dis
pctcb alleges that one A. NJ. WHITE
HEAD was appointed an inspector at Sic
per day, although he cannot read the
barometer. An employe named J. X.
ROBINSON, who had been discharged,
was reinstated through political in1u-
ence. The first week after his re-
instatement be stole a bolt Of
cloth and was again discharged. The
late captain OF the watch was dis
charged for stealing a carpet, Office fur
niture and other public property.
Thefts have being going on for some
time unchecked. Professors BIGELow
aud BARNS, who have been appointed
since last July, have no meteorological
experience, and therefore two clerks
we're detailed to do the work Of these
professors who were paid $4,000 per
year. The number Of messengers
is extraordinary aud would sug-
gest that special messenger
is assigned TO every employee
above the rank Of clerk. There is more
than one instance known Of female
clerk receiving her full salary, although
she had been absent half Of the time for
which she was paid. There is an in
stance where a number Of physicians
we're employed in the bureau Of ANIMAL
industry at a salary Of $1,000 to detect
and actupon pleuro-pneumOnia in cattle.
On March 25, 1892, Mr.. RUsK said that
there was no pleuro-pneumOnia in this
country, yet in March, 1898, these phys
icians were still on the payrolls.
It's little wonder that Secretary NOR
TON when he assumed the duties Of his
Office was astounded at the wanton ex-
travagance in the department and at
once determined to thoroughly overhaul
it and lop off every useless appendage,
Let the good work 60 on.

was named, President Cleveland said;
That is a very nice Office. Vice-Presi-
dent MOrton's nephew is now filling it.
He said nothing more, and the state
ment that a reference was made 20 a re-
Quest from Mr.. Morton that his nephew
be not disturbed, is al varience with the
facts. The President gave no intima-
ton whatever Of anything of that sort -

Judge RICEs yesterday rendered his
decision ia the cases growing out Of the
Ann Arbor railroad strike The points
decided are that the Interstate COM
merce law makes it mandatory upon
connecting roads 70 interchange both
passenger and freight traffic. As the
railroad companies can only act
through their officers, agents and ser
wants, the mandate applies with equal
force TO officers and employees Of the
companies. Therefore, for an officer or
employe to refuse to han die connecting
freight while he is in the company's ser
vice is violation OF the
Inter State Commerce law. The de-
c!sion, however, does not assume to
compel men to work against their will,
but decides that they cannot refuse to
Interchange traffic so long as they are
in the service Of the railroad company,
and they are presumed 10 be in such
service during the period Of time occu-
pied In making q 'run." In other
words, IL they desire to quit the service
Of tho company they must do so either
before they enter upon or at the end Of

THE tenth annual report Of the Mich
gan Labor Bureau presents some con-
illusions upon the subject Of immigra-
tion that will not meet with favor in
labor circles. The Commissioner says
there are not too many foreigners in the
United States and that the apparent
lack of employment is not due to immi-
grafton. He says:
The apparent over supply Of labor arises
from q very different cause than lmmigra-
ton. &c mas it's foundation in the fact that
the natural outlet 10 labor is clogged. This
