LAW is DEMOCRACY.
1t Stands for Equal Justice and Gaod
Order.

Order.
Mr.. Bryan performed both patriotic
and political duty in calling attention
in recent speech to the democratic
position on the great questions which
are now fretting labor and causing
needless alarm in some unusually calm
minds.
After pointing out that the party took
strong ground in its last national plat
form against the too free and hasty use
OF the restraining power by the courts,
Mr. Bryan said: "Those who have sug-
gested the burning of property and the
destruction of life as a means of settling
labor disputes do not understand the
genius of our institutions. The Ameri-
can pople are law-abiding. When the
laws are bad they change the laws
In this observation the Nebraskan
gave expression to the conservative force
which is a guarantee of the perpetuity
of American institutions. That unfor-
tunate class of persons who see danger
to these institutions in the acts of
judges who may interpret the laws un-
justly or in the errors of other officers
''Nt~ 10y iAi4SH9C thCii power, Ills play,
as Mr.. Bryan says, lack of understand
ing of the spirit and active force of our
governmental machinery
The ballot is in the hand of every
American citizen above the age of 21
years. He can use it to correct every
abuse of power and every injustice i'm
posed by the strong upon the weak.
Ii it be government by injunction"
to which he objects he can say so at the
polls. If enough people agree that his
objection is well founded, the cause of
complaint will be soon removed. The
party doctrine on this question was in
tended to emphasize the fact that this
Is a government of the people and that
they have not only the right but also
the power to apply the remedy to any
wrong use made of their machine by
those intrusted with its management
The declaration is only in line with the
contentious and teachings of democracy
from the days of Jefferson. There is no
anarchy in democracy. There is moth.
Ing in its traditions or In its creed which
counsels violence for the correction of
public or private wrong. There is moth
ing but equal justice and good order in
democracy, and those who interpret its
character in any other way do not un.

TROUBLE OVER MARKETS
Objection to Farmers Occupying Thor

WAR COMMENCED BY CHIEF DOLAN
Too Much Space Used by the
Marketmen.
POLICE COMMISSION TO TAKE ACTION

Chief Of Police Dolan has begun war
on some of the people doing bueiness
ia King street market, as be ia satisfied
that they are over -stepping the privi.
leges intended for them by the ordi-
nance. The market has become go
congeeted that il has become necessary
TO have three officers on duty between
Third and Eighth streets each market
day, and even with this precaution ac-
cidente sometimes occur. Not only
that, hut the cross streets are blocked
to such an extent as to materially in
terfere with pedestrians and teams
crossing King street. EH
There has been such rush for King
street market lately that the regular
space along tho curb line has been used
up and now stands are being occupied
in Third, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth. Seventh
and Eighth streets In some instances
these srands, being we'll out into the
cross street on either side, allow not
more than 10 feet for tho regular traffic.
Chief Dolan has been watching the
matter closely and has had his men
caution the persons occupying these
stands to confine themselves TO King

but in each case, so the chief stated

be looked up. but as soon as the law
can be interpreted in its strict sense it
will be enforced by the Police Depart

lie holds that while King Atroet is
intended for the farmers, they have no
right whatever to occupy the cross
streets, with the exception OF Fourth
street, which has also been set apart as
market street between Walnut and
Tatnall streets. But the other streets
crossing King street, he believes, are
not intended for market purposes, and.
therefore, when stands are erected OF
people expose their wares for sale on or
near the crossings they are occupying
the cross streets contrary to the mean
ing of the ordinance. He is fully con-
vincsd that something must be done
and he proposes 10 make q move that
will improve the condition OF King
street on Market days.
Officer Gilling found some market
men Monday morning occupying French
street above Fourth. He informed them
that that was not market, thorough
fare, and they replied that they had
been placed there by the clerk of the
market, who had told them that be was
acting under instructions from the

a SHOCKING AcrlnEN..
Samuel Kennedy Killed by Being Caught in
Wheel ut the Augustius Mills.

Wheel ut the Augustius Mills.
Samuel Kennedy, aged "a years. of
No. l4O9 CLAYTON street, met terrible
death Mt the Augustine Mills on Satur-
day afternoon. Hh had been employed
ct the mills for about six years. and,
as he was thoroughly acquainted with
the machinery, the natural solution ia
that his sudden misfortune was the
result Of an accident.
He was engaged in assisting William
Black to place belt On large pulley.
Mr. BlacR had spoken tc Kennedy,
giving him instructions, and turned his
back. In less than a minute ne turned
again to address Kennedy, but the lat
ter was dead. His mutilatetl bouy was
lying on the floor and the left leg,
which had been torn from the trunk,
was revolving rapidly in the wheel.
Mr.. Black ran to the engine room, as
did elso others who saw what had hap
pened, and gave the alarm. The
machinery was stopped at once. and the
remains were given attention.
While nobody saw the accident, there
is every reason to believe that the young
mans clothing became caught between
| the belt and the pulley while he was
endeavoring to adjust the belt, and be-
fore he could give the alarm, he was
carried around the big wheel.
After the accident the men working
in the mill were almost overcome with
| grief. as the dead man was very popu.
| lar with them. Mr.. Black felt the sad
blow probably more than any OF the
rest, on account of his association with
| the deceased.
| Kennedy's parents were Mortified
when they learned what had befaller
their son, and at their request ths
body was moved to their residence,
where the deceased had lived.
The funeral took place Tuesday after
noon. Services were held at ST. johns
| Church.
