Has Gone Glimlnering.

The sixty second wave OF
prosperity, in goldbug pa
pers only, has come and-and
gone. There has been a not
able increase in building and
other affairs, MANY factories
have started up after beng
closed down, or having run
on short time during the con-
tinued period Of depression,
all OF which is quite natural.
Crop failures over the ocean
have had some effect and
have 2utup the price ofgrain.
But the adoption of the gold
standard and the passage Of
the Dingley bill have, as we
expected, resulted in disap.
pointment. Even the trusts,
40 far, have not reaped any
great harvest. The slogan
of "dollar wheat and "eight
cent cotton" seem to be go.
ing down hill. Cotton has
dripped from eight in August
to 6K and less for the fail
months and no better prices
in sight. "They say" hard
times over the ocean has de-
pressed the price OF cotton.
Now that is curious. How
can times exist in England
and Germany when they
have the gold STANDARD in all
it's blooming glory? The old,
ela story must be told again.
Tltnes will not be good again
until the United States, Eng
land and Germany adopt the
double standard .-I'rogres-

low we give his response,
which up.holds the freedom
of the citizen and the right t
of trial by jury.
Editor "1imes- Hel ah," Chic
ago, Ill.,,
SIR:-In response to your
inquiry, the new practice O!
issuing injunctions in labor
disputes. in it's scope, is with
out warrant in reason or pre-
cedent. 1t is a bad usnrpa-
tion BY judges hohave been
appointed to life positions 10y
the influence of great corpor.
ntiOns and who are under no
responsibility tor their con-
duct. 1t Is a denial to the
citizen of the right of trial BY
jury by judges who enact the
law by their own decrees and
then execute it by the penal
t.y for contempt.
The remedy is by n consti-
tutiOnal amendment which
shall make the United States
Judges elective by the people
in their respective districts
and circuits for a term of
years. That public sentiment
endorses this corrective pow
er OF placing the judiciary I'm
der the supervision OF public
opiui.n is shown by the fact
that in every Stete except
three, the Judges now hold
for a fixed term and in those
three they are removable by
a vote of IL bare majority Of
the legislature, As to the u.
s. Judges, they are selected
without the public having
any voice in their selection
and ordinarily by influences
that are hostile to popular
rights, they are subject to no
I restraint. as impeachment is
and they as
sumo to set aside the acts OF
Congress and to stay the ac-
tiOn of the Executive-at their
will. That possessed of this ar
bitrary and supreme power
(Which should be entrusted
to no set of menO and by rea-
son of their life tenure (which
is unIepublican) subject to no
ision, there are not
withsuanding many worthy
men still among the Federal
Judges is a tribute to the
spirit and training Of our IN.
The history of
the last few years demon
strates that we can trust no
longer to this. Arbitrary
and supreme power will de-
bauch it's pOssessOrs. 1t has
always done so. Judges are
no exception t. this principle

Gouverneur Morris was in Paris from Feb. 2,
1889, until 1894. His diary is n precious docu-
mcnt for historians OF the Revolution. In
America Morris was a thorough republican,
because he believed no other form OF govern
ment would work as well in this country. The
materials for a monarchy or oristocrncy did not
exist here. Thero were in the United states no
gradations OF rank. no permanent historic class
distinctions. which are essential 10 any form of
aristocratic government. His fonGncss for a

Tho extracts from Jcfcrson's letters given in

home in September, 1881, he had no idea that u
revolution of appalling violence was impending.
In the outbreaks that had previously occurred
he saw no premonition of catastrophe. When he
left France 1t was with the conviction that, with.
in a year, one OF tho greatest Of recorded trans
formations would have been effected without

volume did not SEQ the light until 1928, and then
largely through the Intervention OF certain
American scholars. Prof. Tyler, for his part,
would not claim for Hutchinson the name OF a
great historian. Love OF truth and of Jus.
ticc he had, together with diligence and
tho ability TO master details and to nnrrato
them accurately. II was impossible, however,
that his judgments should not DO warped and
colored by tho prcpossessions OF his own politi.
cal career, oven II, owing to tho pressure OF off,
cial business. he had not been constrained 10
neglect some important sources OF tormatio
which were accessible to him. That, through.
out his three volumes. however. he intended to
tell the truth. and to practice fairness, IL pro-
nounced indubitablc. A striking instance OF
his judicial tone is noted in his account OF tho
career OF his ancestrcss. Mrs. Ammo Hutchinson.
Indeed. some OF his readers thought that, in this
part OF his narrative. he had carried impartinl.
ity too far. Even OF the third volume, penned
in exile, tho prevailing tenor is described as
calm. moderate, and Just, with only occasional
RicEers OF personal or political cnmity. I'm.

onists OF his us Hancock. Bowdoin, Gushing,
the Adamscs. and the otises, he does mako state.
ments which imply in them weaknesses and
fanlts. But to Prof. Tyler 1t is not clear that,
with the exception of tho charge OF pecuniary
dlshonor against Samuel Adams. Hutchinson's
estimates Of his principal opponents differed
very much from tho estimates Of them now
mado by disintcrested students.
The author OF this book, who has carefully
gone over Hutchinson's papers. tolls us that no
was thoroughly in accord with tho fundamental
conception OF his countryfnen as to tho proper
formula for their own political rights, declaring
that his and their ancestors left their native
country with the strongest assurances that they
and their posterity should enjoy the privileges
OF free natural.b Dor English subjects" and pray
ing that those privileges might be preserved
inviolate to their latest postcrty. Even their
dream Of n great American empire he shared.
giving it as one reason for preserving the record
OF the rise and progress OF the several colonies
that those colonies were destined lin
the course OF n few generations to have
great historic Importance by becoming C~onstit-
uent parts OF "a mighty empire" Tho issue upon
which this once most popular OF New England
men finally broke with many of his contcmpo-
raries and fell out of line with what proved to be
the course OF events was an issue touching the
method of realizing this magnificent dream.
Hutchinson believed that 1t could and should he
realized by the process of a natural and legal
development, in full peace and amity with the
mothcrland: in short by evolution. They be-
licved. on the other hand. that their dream OF
empire could best DO realized by a sudden at
tack upon their Constitutional environment, by
n swift and violent rupture Of legal and ira
dictionary ties; in short by revolution.
