that when lack of employment brings great
suffering upon another large part of the
community that an appeal for help should
be made to the department clerks, whose
incomes. fortunately. do not suffer on ac-
count Of shut downs" or business depres-
sion. This appeal, too. would be made
with full confidence that the response
would be generous one, for the clerks
have never failed to give literally, when
the cause was good. The committee, how
ever, II encountered by being unable to
make a personal canvass of the depart

therefore ask that the clerks meet them

The House Of Representatives will do the
country real service IL 1t takes I'D and
carries to an unreasonable decision the
case Of Judge Jenkins, who by injunction,
interfered with and prevented a strike of
Northern Pacific railroad employees and
compelled cessation Of the efforts of labor
organization officials who were melting
those employees to quit work. The injunc-
ton was granted upon application of the
receivers who are In charge of Northern Pa
cific affairs. and was for awhile the sub
ject Of much comment Now the trades
unions are agitating the impeachment of
Judge Jenkins. and the matter will almost
surely occupy some Of the attention of the
House as soon as the Wilson bill Is out of
the way. If Judge Jenkins did the right
and the legal thing the country should have
the case made conspicuously plain; If he
erred without malice he should be repri-
manded; IL he deliberately misused one of
the laws greatest powers he should suffer
prompt removal from the judicial Office. A
great principle is at stake.
