rough and tumble reception Satur-
day night, at the Bella Union
theatre, and frightful combat re-

of Jesse James received severe

seems that these men were raising
a disturbance at the theatre when
Officer Dawson ordered them to
keep quiet. At this the three men
began to swear at and abuse the
officer. The mounted officers were
summoned and it was with great
difficulty and considerable rough
batting that they succeeded in
safely placing the trio of toughs
behind the bars. This morning re-

The Sherman Laws.


1t has been only a few weeks since
OF the Sherman silver law. Republicans
as weH as democrats agreed that that
portion of it, and that was the gist of it,
was extremely unwise Even Senator
Sherman, who was so largely responsible
for the law that it was given his name,
favored the repeal of the clause. II he
had known in 1890 what he knew in 1898
he would not have urged the enactment of
it,
And now another law which bears the
senator's name, the antitrust law, has
come to grief. Some of the newspapers
have been nagging the Attorney General
to proceed against certain trusts under
this law. That official has made no
reply to the attacks upon him. 1t is
probable he thought no good would come
from a newspaper controversy. In
his annual report, however, he
gives his reasons for not en-
forcing the Sherman antitrust law.
He declares that the widespread impress
sion that the aim and effect of the law are
to prohibit and prevent those aggrega-
tons of capital which are so common, and
which are on so large a scale sometimes
as to practically control all branches of
an extensive industry, has very small
basis.
The trouble is to decide what the law
really means. A number of Judges of the
federal courts have attempted to inter-
pref it, and all except one abandoned the
effort That one, at the time he rendered
his decision upon the law, was a United
States circuit judge. He is now an
associate justice of the United States su-
preme court. Hedeclared that the cases
popularity supposed to be covered by the
statute are almost without exception,
obviously not within its provisions" So
the antitrust law, out of which Senator
Sherman and the Republican party have
obtained good deal of political capital,
amounts practically to nothing. The At
torney General can not prosecute trusts
for violating it, and the papers that have
been trying to make life burden to him
are quietly, but emphatically informed
that they ought to be sure they are right
before running the risk of making them
selves ridiculous.

A Caucus on the Tarif Bill.

Some of the democratic congressman
are advising that caucus of. the demo-
Gratis of the House on the tariff bill be
called. They appear, however, to be in
the minority. Even the democratic
members of the ways and means commit
tee say that it would not be good policyto
have caucus Those who attended it
would not be bound by it. ..
1t is thought that those who are urging
a caucus are not doing so because they
want the bill to PASS just as it is, but be-
cause they hope to unite all who are dis
satisfied and amend the bill so as to make
it acceptable to the interests which they
represent
The position taken by the ways and
means committee, namely, that each
member should be free to vote as ne
pleases, is. the right one. The country
wants to know how each stands upon the
important items, and besides, caucus
action upon the tariff bills and other impor
taut matters in the past has not been pro-
ductive of any good results.
There are provisions of the bill that
will be strongly opposed by some of the
democrats, but unless those who are
dissatisfied can be united not enough
votes can be obtained against any one of
them to defeat it, with the excep-
ton, perhaps, of the one which
continues the bounty on sugar.
There is a great deal of opposition
to the way sugar is dealt with. The
sugar producers want a tax put on sugar,
and there are many who have no interest
in sugar production who think it would
be wiser to raise a revenue from a tax on
sugar than from tax on incomes.
Unless great change takes place in the
views of the democrats of the House
there will be no caucus on the tariff bill.
Those who hope to have it so changed
as to make it acceptable to their respec-
tive constituents are likely to be disap-
pointed
