The Springfield (Mass.) Repub-
lican, a paper Of conservative ten
denotes, looks upon the growing
use Of injunctions in case of strikes
as judicial subversion Of the ordi'
nary processes OF law. As a result
of the enjoining Of unlawful acts in
connection with a strike, it says, il
the acts are committed the criminal
is taken away from the ordinary
process of law, and, as in contempt
of1court, is tried by the Judge alone
and sentenced to prison for any
length of time he may see fit e
choose. "Thus," says the Repub
lican, " the judge, of his own mo-
tion, becomes prosecutor, jury and
Judge, and all the usual machinery
and safeguards Of justice are swept
away. What would be said OF al
equity Judge who should enjoin al
from committing any unlawful act,
The unlawful acts would first be
come contempts Of court, and ths
victims would be subject to prose
cution, trial and punishment by
the Judge alone. The enormity o
such proceeding is palpable. Blu
it ia precisely Of the nature of Judg'
Jackson's proceeding"
This statment shows the possibili
ties in the line Of government by in
junction.
The order-loving element Of ~
community should place the sea
of disapproval upon this proceeding
before it is carried any further.

The Isdepesdest Sugar Trust.
The nicst open and defiant GRIM
inal in the United States is the sugar
trust. 1t defies tie national law as
well as the laws Of number of
states-among which is Indiana
and it emphasizes its lawlessness by
resorting to law to annoy its COM
petitors. This appears to be the
case with three grocers, who were
arrested at Columbus, o., charged
with violating the pure food laws of
Ohio in selling Dutch sugar alleged
to be adulterated with ultramarine
blue. Robert Crooks & Co. of New
York, importers Of Dutch refined
sugar, reported the matter to the
charge d'affairs Of the Netherlands
here, and he in turn lodged COM
plant at the department Of state.
Crooks e. Co. practically declared
that the prosecutions brought in
Ohio were instigated by the sugar
trust with view to driving Dutch
sugars out Of the market.
An attempt was made to have the
sugars complained Of sent to the
United States government for ex-
animation, and an expert from
the appraisers Office in New. York
was offered for this purpose, but
this met resistance from the food
and dairy commissioner Of Ohio,
who made response TO the state
department offer 81 government
chemists to assist in making analy-
ses, which was marked by extreme
discourtesy to the state department
and the Netherlands government.
He said his bureau had five thor
oughly competent chemists and felt
fully capable Of dischargingits its duties
satisfactorily to all concerned save
those who had been attempting to
violate the pure food laws of the
state. The commissioner said
further that he believed the expert
treasury chemist was to come in the
interest of the New York sugar inn
porters, the presumption being that
he was more interested in securing
a verdict for the defendants than he
would be in learning the exact cause
of the controversy.
The minister OF the Netherlands
insisted on an opportunity to pro-
tect the reputation Of Dutch sugars,
and arrangements we're finally made
to submit samples TO the govern
ment experts. Crooks 4 Co. also
charge that the trust has begun q
crusade against the sellers Of Dutch
sugav in Michigan, and state that
the rational government will be
called upon to prevent any injustice
by false analysis. There have been
no occurrences Of this kind reported
in Indiana. The sugar trust seems
to have a monopoly Of the market
in this state, and az neither the
goober nor the encouragement
seem disposed TO take any steps 70
enforce the antitrust law against
il or against any other trust, there
is q probability that it will continue
to operate in this state until We get
q democratic administration. Ind

The educational movement in the
temperance reform has been carried
so far that the public schools have
risen to a temperance level that the
churches themselves have not at.
tanned. My central proposition is
simply that the churches ought in
all decency to rise to the temperance
level of the common schools. But
here in your schools are certainly
II 100000 of the future
citizens of the republic
under this instruction. Now, / ask
whether it is not fair to demand that
the preacher in his desk shall be as
consistent in his temperance exam.
pie as the teacher in his desk is now
expected to be. If a teacher uses
the improved and approved temper
ance textbooks, he must empha-
size total abstinence, and he is ex-
pected to put his example behind
his precepts. Are church mem.
bers to rise to the level OF school
teachers? 1t is fair to ask that the
church in general should occupy al
least as hil h temperance level as
the legislatures Of states like Penn
sylvania and New York? / wan,
the church members to rise to this
new level. When the schools are
doing this shall the church lag be-
hind, or shall we allow the club
houses to cling to her holy skirts
and drag them into the mire Of the
lower standards of what calls itsell
society?

The Silver Question.

The esteemed Journal is frequent
ly entertaining in its discussion Of
economic questions, and never more
so than in the following declaration !:
"The wonder is that more demo-
Gratis who must see this do not have
the courage to declare that the par
ty must abandon the silver issue as
made in 1896 and reform its lines.
These men must see that if the
present wave of proserity shall con-
tinue a year only, the Is to ! issue
will be simply a reminiscence, to
which no part of those who were
enthusiastic for it last year can be
rallied"
As matter of fact the silver party
has grown strong on account of just
such temporary visits of relief from
the depressing effects of the gold
standard as the present one. AT
this time all the prosperity there is
is due to an advance in the gold
price of agricultural products, and
the people generally know that the
effects Of the single gold standard
are the opposite Of this. The gold
bugs themselves have preached to
workingmen that the gold standard
was an advantage to them, because
it increased the purchasingpower Of
the money they receive as wages.
II the purchasing power I money is
increased prices are necessarily de-
creased. At present there is an in
crease Of some agricultural prices
based on foreign crop failures, and
probably largely increased by specu-
lative manipulations, but how long
it will continue is uncertain. There
is usually a reaction Of prices after
every period OF great depression, and
in this case it has been increased by
special and temporary causes, but
there is no reason to anticipate a
continuance Of it if the causes do
not continue, and while it is posi-
BILE it is hardly probable that there
will be any general continuance OF
foreign crop failures Ind. Sentinel.

Ms. MckiaIey Talks.

President Mckinley has at length
explained why we are overwhelmed
with prosperity. He tells the peo-
pie ct his summer hotel on Lake
Champlain:
1.-The cause of the present boom
in the West is undoubtedly due in
great measure to the large crops and
high prices caused by the failure of
crops in other countries. But the
fact that prosperity has set in in the
East cannot be accounted for in any
other way than by the wise policy
of the republican party in restoring
a protective tariff"
There is more in that than the
apostle Of high protection meant.
The only prosperity the western
farmer gets comes from his
own efforts, aided by such chance
circumstances as may arise in the
shape of crop failures in other
countries and the like. The pros
Iperity Of the eastern manufacturer
is created for him by the govern
ment, which enables him to put his
hand into the pocket of the western
farmer and extract from it q part Of
his earnings. The eastern bond
holder, the eastern trust promoter,
the eastern gold-owner, are all
helped in similar way by the gov
ernment, at the expense Of their
fellow -citizens.-Ind. Sentinel.

Gathered From the Bible.

Woe unto them that are mighty
to drink wine and men of strength
to mingle strong drink; while they
are drunken as drunkards they shall
be devoured as stubble fully dry,
Benhadad was drinking himself
drunk in the pavilions, he and the
kings with him, and the king Of
Israel sent out and slew the Syrians
Elah was in Tirzah drinking him
self drunk in the house of ARA, and
Zimri went in and smote him and
killed him, and Nabal held a feas,
like the feast of king, and Nabals
heart was merry within him, for he
was very drunk, and it came to pass
that about 10 days after the Lord
smote him and he died. Belshazzal
made great feast to thousand ol
his lords and drank wine before the
thousand, and while he tasted the
wine he commanded to bring the
golden vessels that were taken from
the house of God. That same houl
came the fingers of mans hand
and wrote, Thou art weighed in the
balance and are found wanting. lr
that night was Belshazzar, the kine
of the Chaldeans, slain.
Who hath woe? Who hath sor
row? Who hath contentious? Who
hath babblings? Who hath wounds
without cause?
He that loveth wine shall not bt
rich, nor drunkaids inherit the king
dom of heaven. Take heed to your
selves lest at any time your hearts
be overcharged with drunkenness
and that day come upon your una
wares. Be not drunk with wine
but be filled with the spirit-th,
fruit of the spirit is temperance.
