Omey's Argument in the Debs Case.

Olney's Argument in the Debs Case.
The argument that Attorney General
Olney made before the supreme court in
the Debs case this week is receiving a great
deal OF favorable comment. II was a re-
markedly forcible argument and the SUI
preme court can hardly help being greatly
Influenced By it. The issue as he put it is
whether the federal government. through
the courts, has the power 10 speedily en-
force the laws enacted by congress for
the good of the whole people
It IS oontended in behalf Of Debs tina.
he Is being punished by a court OF equity
for disobedience to its orders in a matter
concerning which it has no Jurisdiction.
The attorney generals argument was TO
the effect that the courts right to do just
what it did is beyond question.
It will hardly be denied that congress
has the right to enact laws for the control
laws are superior to state laws relative
TO commerce within state limits. II there
fore, there is conflict between the fed
eral and state laws the state laws must
give way. Having superior jurisdiction the
federal government can resort TO any OF
its courts for the enforcement Of federal
laws. It is not limited to any particular
court
II is true that Debs and his associates
could have been proceeded against by in
dictment, but that would have been a slow
process. What was desired was to put
stop to the riotous disturbance at Chicago
as quickly as possible. The aim was not
to infict upon Debs and associates the
severest punishment which the law pro-
vided for their offense. Therefore. an in
junction was taken out against them,
which injunction, 1t is asserted. they vio-
lated 1t might have been worse for them
had they been proceeded against crimi-
nally. They ought not to complain be-
cause the mildest method of dealing with
them was adopted.
Debs and his associates are trying to
escape by means of technicalities. 1t is
not believed they will be successful. 1t is
to the interest of the whole country that
they shall not be.

See Here, GOV. Mckinley.
From the Boston Herald NndN.

There is little doubt that New Eng
land republicans are practically united
in preferring Mr.. T, b. Reed as their
next candidate for the presidency, but
II is entirely possible that they may carry
for Gov. Mckinley some of the districts
that are now being claimed for him in
this section of country. Mr.. Reed comes
from small state, and a sure one for
his party with any candidate. If 1t shall
appear that Gov Mckinley has the bet
ter prospects Of the nomination, the con-
dition of politics is such that there are
plenty of politicians who will like to
appear as the original Mckinley men from
New England. and some of them may de-
velop the capacity to carry districts for
their candidate. 1t will he remembered
that there was once an original Blaine man

of the north toward annleNatiOn has
changed radically since the war. Before
that time the absorption OF Cuba would
have meant an enlargement of the area

The story of the Frenchman who made
a quarter of a million dollars from as
the Morning News recently. seems to have
created an impression in the west, to
judge from inquiries that have been re-
ceived. The west, and other sections,
may be interested to know that there are
in this county numerous broad acres of
trucking lands upon which the French
mans good fortune may be duplicated,
and that the draining of these lands is
a matter now receiving the attention Of
the county authorities.

Charleston is, of course, correct in say
ing that Savannah's May week festivals
are an imitation of Charleston's gala week.
The carnival idea is purely and distinctly
Charlestonian. Paris and New Orleans
are both base imitators. Nay more; there
cannot be room for a reasonable doubt
that the ancient Romans got the idea
for their Coliseum from the bend in King
street, and their costumes secondhand
from Won Senten's.

No Jingoism In 1t.

was no jingoism in it, such as republican

when Marin Jane is Mayor.

From the Chicago Record.
When Maria JAMES elected to the mayor
atty chair
Therell be many wrongs corrected that
are now apparent there.
The sidewalks win be carpeted, the streets
swept thrice a day,
The alleys be as fragrant as fields of new
mown hay.
What with parties and receptions and
occasionally a ball,
There win be a transformation around the
city hall
And each ward in the city will be repre-
scented then
By lovely alderwomen instead Of horrid
aldermen.
When Maria Jane is mayor, none but la
dies will, of course,
Be appointed members of the city police
force,
And IN their bloomer uniforms they'll
look so very sweet
The gang" to be arrested will consider it
a treat.
The stores will be compelled to have
bargain sale each day,
And for chewing gum and soda you will
not be asked to pay.
Oh, great reforms viii be projected, all the
wrongs will be corrected
