upon 90 momentous q question, in

upon 90 momentous a question, in
volving the Interpretation of the
constitution, in the interest Of
the rich that there should be such a
variance, and in another question involv-
ing the liberty of the citizen the same
body should be a unit as against him.
The old guarantee Of the constitution is
that no man shall be deprived Of his
liberty without due process Of law, and
that means that he shall have a trial by
jury. The decision Of yesterday elm
mates that from our charter and says
that any federal judge is vested with
arbitrary power to issue a mandate and
enforce it to the extent of imprisoning a
man whom he assumes dlsobeys him.
This has An ugly look. The people of
the United States are, as a rule, law
abiding and have ever paid due respect
to the judiciary, but a few more decisions
in line with those which furnish the text
for this article, will lead them to change
their opinion. 1t was only a day or two
ago that a federal judge, on u flimsy
pretext, refused to send President
Huntington of the Southern Pacific to
California to be tried for a plain viola.
ton of the interstate commerce law. In
doing this he strained a point. but in
that case the offender was a millionaire.
and in the eyes of the judge was entitled
to consideration
AS for Debs and his associates, they
will probably have to 60 to Jail and serve
the term allotted to them. This would
not be so bad if the law of injunction
and contempt that has been applied to
them would be made applicable to the
officers of the great corporations. 1t is a
poor rule that does not work both ways.
Yet it seems that congress cannot make
a law affecting the rick that can be en-
forced, and that any law enacted 10 ap-
ply to the common people is iron-clad
and as immutable as those of the Medes
and Persians.

Now someone has discovered that in
the new codes the divorce laws are much
more stringent than those now in force.
The causes for legal separation are the
same, but where the pinch will come is
the provision that what may be called
the innocent party to the divorce shall
not remarry within two years, and the
other party not within three years. This
will seriously interfere with the divorce
industry in the state, and no doubt the
courts and moral element in the COM
munity will be duly grateful. The fact
is that the eaee and comparative privacy
with which divorces have been obtained
in the state, and tho number of them
have become a public scandal. For this
improvement, if the law stands, the codes
are to be commended.

The Knights of Labor have arranged
to establish IA headquarters and ii lobby
at Washington, ID. c. In this they arc
following the example set by the rail
roads and other great corporations. The
officers say that it is necessary to watch
legislation. This may be all right, but it
looks likean uncalled expenditure Of mon
cy for which in the very nature of things
there cannot be amy corresponding re-
turn. 1t will give the grand officers a
chance to splurge around the national
capital and have a good time at the ex
pense of the rank and file; only this and
nothing more.

THE READY INJUNCTION,

In a decision handed down Tuesday
the United States supreme court, by a
unanimous vote set the seal of its ap-
proval upon the theory that the law of
Injunction as applied dnring the great
railroad strikes is good law. and that a
federal judge has the power to punish
Debs and his associates by Imprisonment
for alleged contempt Of the Injunction.
The decision, as printed in another col
umn, is sweeping in its character. II
has the one merit Of being a unanimous
verdict of the solons. In this it differs
radically from the great income tax de-
%cision, in which, after months of argu.
ment and consultation, the law was
killed by a majority of one, and that one
a member Of the court who had changed
his mind. It seems unreasonable that

Some Of the Montana papers of both
parties HAY" been l,adgrring each other
AS to how they viii ,tand on the silver
question in the event of their respective
parties not including in the national
platforms an unequivocal silver plank
and not nominating d pronounced silver
man as a candidate. They have about
all agreed that they will not support any
man or any party that is not fiat footed
for free coinage at the old ratio. OF
course they have. 1t is a ground hog
case. Montana's politics today is free
coinage. The people hold the winning
cards with their votes. They will lead
the trumps and the newspapers will fol
low suit. That is all there is to it. This
is an occasion in which the papers will
reflect public sentiment and dare not
antagonizc it, for it is a unit.
What the future will bring forth in
the shape of party declarations is uncer-
tain, but it is certain the electors Of
Montana will not vote for any man for
any office. state or national, who is in
the least degree doubtful on the finan-
cial question.

MEMORIAL DAY.,
The honeysuckle buds again

The honeysuckle buds again
And rose pink petals strew the ground
As far away from haunts of men
She steals and finds q lonely mound
A mound where wave a tiny flag
OF colors red and white and blue.
Beside it she in sable weeds
Lives once again that battle through.
Nor wishes she her hero back
Who served his God and country right.
She gave, with loyal, trustful faith,
The widows ALLIE was her mite.
Beside the grave, in sun or rain,
That bent, black figure may be found
When honeysuckle buds again
And rose pink petals strew the ground.

the police commission, Superintendent
Byrnes Of the department has been re-
tired at his own request. Sentiment
was divided as to the completely of the

it was a good time to quit. He can
manage to get along without salary, for
he is reputed to be worth S25O,OOO,

For the third time Kentucky law
officers have set the seal of approval
upon deliberate murder and justified
Fulton Gordon in killing his wife and
young Brown. FIRST the curoncr's jury,
then the police Judge and now the grand
jury hold him blanleless. This is a sad
commentary on the administration of
law in that state, but it is the way they
wore hrought up.

Because a n an who had no possible
excuse for carrying a revolver violated
the law in that respect there is a corpse
and a murderer in Sand Coulee. That
he didn't intend 10 do it is no paliation
for the crime. He did it and an innocent
victim sent into eternity is the result,
The man who carries a gun will use it
and should be made to pay the penalty.
Any punishment that may be visited
upon hun will not restore the life wan
tonly destroyed, but it will vindicate the
law and prove that in this state statutes
are not idle words. The awful tragedy
should have another effect; it should
induce the peace officers to more thor.
ough)y aud rigidIy enforce the law
against carrying concealed weapons.

THE WEEKLY TRIBUNE

1t is now said that General Schotield
is ambitious to get into politics and be-
come Il candidate for president. He
should remember the fate of General
Hancock. Even should he succeed it
would be bad policy to spoil IA good
record as a soldier to make a bad n in
the devious ways of politics. The general
had better rest on his well earned

FIVE MONTHS into THREE
The High School Scholars Want
More Time
STRONG PROTESTS ADOPTED
The Action Taken by a Meeting of All of
the Scholars
They Claim With Some Reason That an
Injustice Has Been Done Them and
State Their Reasons

At a meeting OF the High School held
last Friday, the following resolutions were
submitted to the consideration of the
students. After number of favorable
remarks. made by the students. they were
unanimously passed. The resolutions are
self-explanatory, and deserve the atten-
ton of all promoters of education.
Whereas. At the meeting OF the Board of
Education held March II, 1895. a resolution
was introduced providing that the High
school close at the end of eight months, and
that the Grammar and the Primary schools
close at the end of nine months, and
Whereas, such action would work an in
justice to us, as members OF the High School.
inasmuch as 1t would be impossible for us TO
complete in three months, the work of n SEM
ester, which is five months Also, it would be
an especial injustice 10 the middle and senior
classes as it would prevent them from making
the necessary preparations for commence
ment; and that the classes preceding us will
have had the advantage OF hve months in
which to do the WORK for which we would have
but three months and
Whereas. The ninth grade is a part of the
grammar school, which, according to the reso-
luton. would continue nine months, and that
tn re are twelve of the High school teachers
doing ninth grade work And

Where as. The SALARY OF the teachers of the
City of Los Angeles is less than that of any
other city in the state. and that it would be u
great injustice to dismiss the High School
teachers at the end Of the eighth month. as
that would give them less than three fourths
the salary they received last year: and
Whereas. Such action OF the Board of Educa-
ton would be a retrograde step for higher ed
ucation in our city, and n discrimination
against the High schoo. and

Resolved That the City Council of Los An

in some way aid the Board OF Education,
whereby the High school can be run until the

Resolved, That we urge all friends of the
High School to bring their influence to bear
upon the City ouncil to make such appropria-
ton or aid, and upon the Board OF Education
