The Tax on Oysters Brings in a Profit
TO the State.

The Virginia oysters during the
year 1896 did we'll for the State, as q
matter of revenue. This year they
promise to do equally as much in
this respect, and certainly during
the remainder of the months con
tanning "r's" will prove more firm
and luscious than in several years
past. The York rivers Cherrystone's,
Mob Jack bays, &c, have shown re-
markable Improvement this season.
During the year 1896 the State paid
out on account of the oyster fund,
expenses OF steamers and vessels, and
fees to clerks of courts for recording
accounts of inspectors, sgt, SS4 2G,
while the receipts from the oyster
tax were S31 ,9SO59. For a great
many years what is known as Vir-
ginia's oyster navy was run at II
heavy expense to the State. From
the figures given above it can be seen
that the department is not only self
sustaining, but profitable to the

The people are superior even to tyrants
who chance to be clothed with authority.
The Judges order, instead Of being n
blow at liberty, simply comes as a warn
ing to the people to look after their rights
and liberties before the tools of trusts
have destroyed them. thousand Judi
cial tyrants, knaves and ignoramuses
cannot take away from the people the
liberties for which they shed their blood
and gave their substance.
But the common people must take
warning. The order of Judge jackson
following the omnibus injunction issued
at Chicago in 1894, shows what they have
TO expect if they continue to place in
power the party which has outraged every
tradition of American freedom by sur
rendering the government and the courts
to the control of trusts and monopulies.

A WARNING TO COMMON EopLE.

The intelligent editors of the country
do not nince their words in denouncing
the recent injunction issued against the
workingmen and their leaders by Justice
Jackson, of the United States district
court, in West Virginia.
The editor of the most conservative of
our exchanges, the Springfield Republican
eau hardly restrain itself in commenting
on the enormity Of Judge Jackson's or
der. Words are lacking to characterize IL
properly. "How any judge not mere
tool of some corporate interest could be
guilty of making such IN order passes the
understanding, says our contemporary.
In truth, the order makes crime of
what is not crime, and the Judge stands
ready TO try the victim without Jury
and to punish him in the courts discre.
ton, which if 1t is rs nnbridIed az Is the
judges contempt for the rights of the
people, will consign any and all men to
life Imprisonment.
The Republican remarks that Judge
Jackson's order is as gross a usurpation
OF power rs was ever recorded in the an
nails of tyranny, and says that "tho exer-
else OF sucn power cOnstitute>a deadly
blow at law and liberty and popular gov.
ernment.n
This view we regard as too gloomy.
