good for the striking goose is not equally

The supreme court of Illinois has af-
armed the judgment OF custer entered by
the lower court against the whisky trust
One OF the effects OF the decision Is that
the trust must surrender possession OF
the distlleries Involved. Notwithstanding.
one OF the chief officers declares "his in
tention 70 hold the property at any cost"
Ho will. no dolbt. invoke the interposi-
ton OF the Federal courts. Pending his
appeal he Will not be interfered with.
We do not care what the merits OF the
case may be. however. They have been
decided In a court Of law and that decis-
ion should DE upheld. The official does
not say he will appeal. but that he will
resist. Defiance OF the mandates of a
court is treason to the state. and the au-
thoritles should show as little mercy TO
this law-defying corporation as It would
to law-defying mob.
The orders of the duly constituted au-
thoritles should be enforced. even II 1t
becomes necessary TO call out the troops
and shoot down those who set up their
forces against the law. In such a case
the panoply OF wealth should be no better
shield than the rags OF unarmed poverty.
The only excuse ever offered for vio-
ience In the case OF strikes is that the
strength OF organized authority is always
put az the aid OF organized capital against
organized labor. II may not be strictly

There is no excuse for injustice. The
fotnda ton of order IS overturned when
the law becomes partial. This is a tru-
ism: yet some OF our authorities have
gone at times dangerously near the over
turning point. The threat OF the whisky
trust official that he win not obey the law
should be met by as determined and ef-
fective an answer as he would give 10 his
employees they had uttered similar
threat. In the affirmation OF this princi-
pie we would allow no pusillanimous

YOUNG REPUBLICANS SIGHTED.

There is conside rable indignation ex-
pressed by the young men in the Re
publican party in this state over what
they regard as a high-handed proceeding
on the part of the executive committee
OF the Republican CLUB League. In most
states the clubs are directed by the COM
1nittee to convene and elect delegates to
the national convention of the Republican
League at Cleveland on the 21st inst. 1t
was done In Oregon and resulted in a
very enthusiastic reunion of young Re-
publicans.

the Information having spread over the
state, the young Republicans realize that
they have been utterly ignored. This is
very unfortunate. The chief object OF the
Republican Club League is TO arouse
young men TO an active interest in pro-

party. II has need OF the intelligence

THE TEACHERS SALARIES.

The public schools have been closed
earlier than has been the custom for
some years. They have been closed by
an authority over which the school board
had no control. The question now arises
whether CT not tho teachers are entitled
10 salary for the balance of oheir term.
They may very righteously claim that
they assumed their duties with an under
standing that the term should be for the
usual period. and that, the closing being
due to no fault OF theirs. they should not
be made TO suffer the unexpected loss of
pay. The directors reply that the clos
ing was due TO the process of law. and
that service not being required the salary
cannot be paid.
II Is entirely matter OF law and there
Is no reason why II should not be de-
termined by friendly suit. If the teach
ers are lawfully entitled to salary for the
remainder OF the term they Ehould not
% deprived of l.. If they are not. the
directors have NJ discretion in the mat
ter and dare not pay out money unIaw-
fully. There does not seem to be any
occasion for iu-feeling about the matter
