SECURITY and Chance.

The instinct 10 lay by stories for e
rainy day" is the instinct OF self-pres-
ovation and Of civilization. It has
led to the development Of liie-insur-
ance companies and banks end sSv-
ings institutions Of all sorts, II leads
the we'll. to, do to forego high rates OF
interest in order that the income from
their wealth may be as certain aud
secure as possible. It is this same
instinct that leads careful persons OF
limited means to turn to the govern
ment as the only absolutely safe GUS
todiau for their small savings.
In establishing postal savings banks
nation carries its people forward
step in civilization, inasmuch as it Is
giving to them an additional security
against misfortune. A person who
puts his savings into the postoffice
bank will know that when hardship
and want overtake him, whether be-
cause of misfortune or declining
years, his money will be forthcoming
The fact that there is such a safe
place Of deposit provided will induce
many to make provision against fu.
ture want who otherwise would per-
NIT themselves to become charges
upon society when misfortune over
takes them or when olds age finds
them unprepared to earn a support
by their labor.
To the persona for whom The pos
tai savings back is intended the rate
Of interest paid on deposits is OF
minor importance. What such per-
sons want above everything else is

Judge Tuiey on InjunctiOns.

In reply to the question whether
the Injunction power is not being
abused by the courts in the settle
ment Of labor disputes, Judge TuIey
has made q few remarks that are
worth noting. The eminent iurists
opinion, as expressed IN a sympos-
Jun published in the Times Herald,
is that the courts have no jurisdic-
ton to settle labor disputes by IN
junction. He adds:
ITO use the writ Of injunction to
disperse or prevent au unlawful as
semblage, or to patrol public high
way with armed deputy marshaIe, is
a usurpation of power by the courts
When labor disputes ondanger the
public peace or render the destruc-
ton Of property imminent, no good
citizen can object to the executive
branch of the government using It's
iron hand to prevent either, but no
amount Of legal qUibbling will salts
fy the people that the writs OF in
junction of the federal courts in the
coal strike have not been issued and
used for the purposes and object
above stated.
"The courts in so using the writ
are usurping powers and functions
devolved by both federal and state
constitutions upon the executive
branch of the respective govern
ments. Such use Of the writ Of in
junction by the courts is Judicial
tyranny, which endangers not only
the right Of trial by jury but all the
rights and liberties Of the citizen"
This opinion will be upheld by the
common sence of the masses, which
teaches them that the practice which
makes single judge the sole arbiter
of the merits of a controversy, where
in he himself has established by in
junction temporary law of his own
making, is dangerous usurpation Of
executive and Legislative power.
There can be little doubt Of the
correctness Of Judge Tuley's posi-
ton, which rests primarily upon the
supposition that The injunction power
is a menace wherever it 10 30 used as
to deprive citizans of their constitu-
tional rights. There are already IN
law abundant remedies and prevent
ives for the kinds OF trespsss which
have been eDi ,med in the recent
labor troubles. The work OF enforc-
Jog those laws rests properly with

l desire a parting word relative to
the scism nov existing in the Peoples
party.
Mr.. Butler, in a speech Immediately
after be and Mr.. PritchaTd had been
elected to the United States, remarked
to the effect that Mr.. Pritchard will
have the long term, SIX years. In
other words. that he would after the
expiration of the two year term, sue
coed himself.
Now, it is evident that the Populist
and republican members, who had
jpintly voted Mr.. Butler into the Sen
ate, believing that at the expiration of
two years Mr.. PcItchaTd was C be re
turned to the S~enate-asa r publican
with the expectation that he would ad
same extent thai Mr.. Butler would ad

Nov, IN the face of the above under
standing, plainly implied if not directly
expressed, Mr., PriUchard, nearly ninety
days prior to the expiration of bis
off, term, Obligates through Col
Skinner that He will support during
his entire term of as Senator

1t was not only uuwise, but the height
of folly, to sever too soon the compact

The principles embraced in the Peo-

people are being educared, and under
a wise leadership a sufficient numoer

CHESS AND ITS PLAYERS

An International chess tournament began

pants include most of the masters who
have taken part in recent tournaments.
At the same time 1t is noticeable that Las
ker, SteinitZ and Tarrasch, three of the
big four" which also includes Tschigorin,
are not entered, which is also true of Pills
bury and MarocZy. In fact, there is no
representative from this country. There
are several names not noticed in recent
Journeys, viz, Alapin, who is unquestiona-
bly, strong player; Caro-. Cohn, Zinki, En-
g,isch, who played a match of five games
with Pillsbury, all the games being drawn;
and Metger and Suechting. who recently
won first and second prizes in a masters
tourney at Altoona, Germany. Blackburne,
the English master, was ahead at the end
Of the fourth round. having won all four
games scheduled one game having been
won from Tschigorin. Then follow in a
bunch Walbrodt, Janowski. Alapin. En-
glisch, Marco and Schlechter. The tourna-
ment will last two weeks more one round
being played each day. except Sunday.
Only one game was played the past week
in the summer tournament at the Wash
1ngton Chess Club. 1t was between Messrs
Campbell ard Prender. and was won by

CURRENT SPORTING NOTES


The game at Brooklyn yesterday be-
tween the Senators and Bridegrooms went
20 the latter by the score of ) to 4. the
same as the day previous. Hillary Swain
did the twirling FOR the Senators and did
it WELL but the ole story has to be told
about the tall pitchers fielding. 1t lost
the game yesterday, as it has done other
times throughout the season, and for this
defect Swain will never be a frst-class
man, unless he takes a day off and
overcomes this shortening. The game
belonged to the Senators until the ninth
inning. as the BriGegrooms could not con-
nect successfully with Hillarys pitching
and because no balls were batted toward
the elongated Ohio boy. This is where the
hard-luck story comes in. Had DUnns
hit been made in any other part of the
game it may OF have ratified Hillary but
coming it did in the ninth inning after
safe hit had been made, sent the sena-
torial twirler "kiting' and as a result lost
the game.
Dunn was on the rubber for the Brook
lyns and was hit quite freely. AL Setback
daily:ng with his curves to the tune of
single, double and a home run, and
Tucker soaked them for three singles, but
the unfortunate hitting of Swain married
all the good work of the Senators behind
him.
The score stood to = in favor of the
Senators when the Brooklvns came to the
bat Tor the last time. George Shock. the
old Washington player. started the down
fall with a nice Single to right. Burrell
then hit to Wrigley. forcing Shock at Sec
ond. Germany Smith has done little
hitting this season, but he soaked dou
hie out iii the ninth inning yes; erday. send
ing Burreli to third Pitcher Dunn then
started the fireworks by hitting a roller to
Swain. Hillary fell all over the ball, Bur
rell scoring. Smith going to third and
Dunn arriving safely at first. Things
locked brighter as Jones flew out to De
Mont, but Mike Griffin hit a single over
Wrigiey's head and Smith came home
with the tying run. Shindle then made
another single and DuLn crossed the plate
with the winning run, and the game was
over. Capt. Tom. Brown mayed a scnSa-
tional game in the field, which, with Sell
bach's hitting was the feature of the
game.

MIR. w. III. Smith, who will without doubt
win first prize in the summer tournament
at the Washington Chess Club. is a very
promising player He joined the club about
four years ago, and has steadily improved,
until now he is one of the best players in
the club. He shows considerable insight
into the game. and, with practice and study
of the openings. would give any player in
the city hard struggle for supremacy.
His fayorite opening is on the queens side.
One evening this week he contested Sew
eral games, offhand. with Captain p.
OFarrell. who is recognized as very
capable player, and came out ahead by 3
to l and one draw. A match between the
two would be very interesting. Mr. Smith,
however. is averse to match play, prefer
ring to play "skittles,' but he is occasion
ally drawn into tournaments. when he
usually comes out with a creditable score.
Below is the score of the game played
between Mr.. Smith and Mr.. Campbell re-

looked though Mr.. Campbell would win
Notwithstanding his unsound sacrifice of a
piece, but after time his attack was ex-
hausted, and then Mr.. Smith won easily.
