Attorney-General Olney ordered the ois-
trlct attorneys TO file petition for the
Injunction. and accordingly the court
acquired jurisdiction O.. Then, De-
hind Il all II this Is so, Is an ORDER
from the presidents legal adviser tor
the federal court to usurp the poWe,
OF the law, override constitutions
guarantees and substitute lmprison-
ment for contempt" for the PUNISH
ment by fine prescribed BY statute
Where IL the memory OF the immor
tai Jefferson? II would not be harsh

The president Is one of his disciples.
Il IL refreshing right here to read an
extract from this great author OF the
declaration OF Independence wherein
he discusses the danger OF federal
courts Oyer-stepping their Jurisdlctoh'
1.-THE judiciary OF the United states
I " the subtle corps OF sappers anu
Miners, constantly working UNDER
ground to undermine the foundations
Of our confederated fabric. They are
constituting our constitution from CO.
ordination OF n general and special
government to a general and supreme
one alone The foundations
are already deeply laid by their de-
clslonB for the humiliation Of consu-
tutonal state rights and the removal
of every check every countorpoise TO
the engulhng power OF which them
selves are to make a sovereign part"
In Mr.. Jefferson's day they were
modest but persistent AS "sappers and
miners" Now they are bold. brazen,
running like n mogul locomotive over
the constitutional rights and liberties
OF the peoplel The saddest OF all Is
that while they are doing this, the
people are gazing on with seeming in
difference. and their congress indorses
the president for giving military sup
port 10 the nnrighteous work
Some apologists say that the court,
bncked by the president, was protect
ing interstate commerce. About the
only law under which the color OF
authority for this can be claimed Is
what Is known as the United states
antitrust law, passed In 1880, which
Is as follows;
Every contract, combination In the
form of n trust or otherwise, or con-
sniracv in restraint az trade or COM
rnerce among the several states or with
foreign nations is hereby declared ille-
gal"
