Indian Territory as one State, by l.. w.

Territory should be admitted as a State

dependent State within the boundaries OF
the present Territory. They contended that

many weeks and the rejection of Horn

CROWD OF people witnessed II singular
scene here the other night in which n

fashion us ever any writer of fiction
mas evolved. Rafe Shatfer, a WE'LL
known sporting man, was seated in n
gambling saloon talking to a friend.
VINO mad only lately como here from
Cne east. Shatfer was telling his COM
panions of Il quarrel that he had with
another man about town, whom he

question: Say, Shat1cr, do YOU re-

looked surprised, but answered that ho
did. " '''''' ''o
Well, you know it's very easy
thing forgotten. Now. | will bet Won
can't tell me what | am going to tick
out here on this table"
The eastern man then took n pencil
from his pocket and began to tick off a
message, which, as he finished, caused
Sha1fcr to spring'hastily from his seat,
drawing, as he did so, Il revolver from
his pocket, which he thrust almost in
the face of man who had been stand
ing in the door Of saloon, and W no had
Just covered him with his pistol. The
two men glared at each other, and
thon Shaffer said calmly:
Bctter put up your weapon, Smith,
unicsS you want to shoot it out with
me here. | have got the drop on YOU
as much as you on me"
Smith hesitated and then replied
that he would put up his pistol if
Smaller would, and consented to leave
the question between them to the arbi-
tratl0n OF mutual friends. Shaffer
agreed to the arbitration plan. as it
seems both men ad>thei>.-lreeasons for

Smith then left, and Shaifer thanked
his quick-witted friend for the service
he had rendered him. The message
the eastern man had raped out was as
follows:
If your enemy is dark-complcx-
Toned man with II hooked nose and a

and ne acted ut once on them. as has
been shown. His wheeling SO suddenly
about on Smith took that gentleman so
by surprise that he was compelled to
back down.

discretion in the use of means and pass
upon the necessity and propriety o.
means for the accomplishment of ends
confessedly within its power. That In
the case OF a police purpose within the
Legislative power, where the Legisla-
| ture has enacted measure having
substantial relation to the accomplish.
ment OF that purpose and clearly likely
to accomplish it, and where the Legis-
lature has solemnly declared the meas
ure enacted for the accomplishment of
that pupose, the judiciary can, with
propriety, declare that the measure
was not passed for that purpose. but
for one entirely different.
Now insist that the settled doctrine
in this State and in the United States,
as to these matters, has been hitherto
as follows: "It is to be borne in mind
that there is Il broad difference be-
tween the Constitution of the United
States and the Constitutions of the
States as regards the power which may
be exercised under them. The Govern
ment of the United States is one of en-
umerated powers; the Governments of
the States are possessed of all tho gem
eral powers of legislation. When u
law of Congress is assailed as void and
null we look in the National Constitu-
tion to see if the grant of special
powers is broad enough to embrace it !;
but when State law is attacked on
the same ground it is presumably valid
In any case, and this presumption is q
conclusive one, unless in the Constitu.
tion of the United States or of the
State we are able to discover that it is
prohibited. We look in the Constitu-
tion of the United States for grants of
legislative power, but in the Constitu-
tlon OF the State to ascertain if any
limitations have been imposed upon
the complete power with which tho
Legislative department of the State
was vcstcd'in its creation. Congress
can pass no laws except such as the
Constitution authorizes, either express
ly or by clear implication; while the
State Legislature has jurisdiction of
all subjects which is not prohibited.
The law making power of the State, it
Is said in one case, recognizes no re-
straints, and is bound by none, except
such as are imposed by the Constitu-
tion. That instrument has been aptly
termed a Legislative Act by the people
themselves in their sovereign capacity,
and is therefore the paramount law.
Its object is not to grant legislative
powers, but to coniine and restrain it.
Without the constitutional limitations
the power to make laws would be alb
sOlute.
