IFS EANGs DRAWN.

Attorney General McKenna has at
last announced his opinion on the ap-
plication of the now notorious section
% of the Dingley bill. His decision is
singularly Lacking in clearness of
thought and lucidity of language, but
it reaches the desired point. In effect
it denies the Interpretation that was
sought to be put upon this section, to
make it limit competition and help
build up monopoly. Two specific cases
were presented to him for his opinion.
The first question was whether con-
signment of merchandise shipped from
a foreign country, as China or Japan,
to the United States, but carried by
British vessels and conveyed through
Canadian territory, is subject to the
discriminating duty. He answers that
it is not. Upon the Importance of this,
it's value to our foreign trade and espe-
cially to the business of the Northwest,
it is not necessary to dilate. 1t leaves
our commerce untrammeled, as it has
been heretofore.
The second question was whether
foreign goods shipped to this country
in British vessels, but coming from
other than British possessions, are sub
ject to the duty. And again his answer
is in the negative We will not go
over the sufficient argument and rea-
soning by which his conclusions are
supported. The considerations against
the enforcement of section % in spirit
hostile to our trade have already been
presented at length; and we have only
to congratulate the country upon its
escape from an injury that might have
been done to it under cover of the por-
ton of the Dingley bill Introduced into
| it so surreptitiously that no man will
| either father it or admit that he knew
of it's presence there prior to the pass
age of the act. 1t is something to find
that section so interpreted as to leave
| it effective for those purposes of pro-
lection that were foremost in the mind
| of congress, without permitting it to be
a hindrance and a charge upon the ma
| ton. The decision will set at rest much
agitation, and is welcome both in it's
practical bearing on affairs and in it's
defeat of one OF the most notorious in
stances in our history of an attempt to
change custom and law by fraud.

SOMETHING DONE.

The members of the city council
probably slept soundly last night Like
the Village Blacksmith" they felt
that something accomplished, some
thing done had earned a nights re-
pose" The union depot loop ordinance
has actually got through both houses;
while the ordinance relating to the
change of the Selby avenue line into
an electric was passed as amended. 1t
is understood that these amendments
will be concurred in, and that, after
a year and half of wrangling. and
do-nothing, this much will have been
accomplished
Our opinion, which we believe to be
the public opinion of these Two meas
ures, can be expressed briefly. The
Thompson ordinance for street railway
connection with the union depot Is
rot what we would have chosen. 1t
seems to longest travel unnecessarily
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1897-09-22

from their homes to the mines. and
upon their return to their homes, ard
from unlawfully melting persons who
are engaged in working the mines from
ceasing to work in the mines" This
language is not used without pur-
pose, and we have right to suppose
that this purpose is the one that ap-
pears clearly from the ordinary mean
ing of the words employed. Unless all
the miners referred to lived upon COM
pany property, and unless the high
ways and approaches leading from
their residences to the mines are pri-
vate thoroughfares and not public
roads, then the court did deny the rights
of assemblage and of free passage on
public highway. This no court has
right to do unless the assemblage con-
templated is clearly and indisputably
riotous. The purpose of the strikers
or their sympathizers in this case
could not be declared riotous in ad-
vance.
Again the court went, as it seems
to US, beyond all that was proper and
right in it's general illumination
against "unlawfully melting" men to
leave their work. If this is not a denial
of free speech and free intercourse, it
is saved from it only by the single
word 'unlawfully,' whose use in this
case must be purely arbitrary. Of
course, a court can enjoin a citizen
from doing anything 'unlawfully." A
man has no right to eat his breakfast
'unlawfully;" but no rational judge Is
going to issue a writ to that effect I'M
til he knows what form of unlawful
ness is contemplated, and has positive
knowledge that violation of the law
will be attempted. One Workingman
has a right to talk to another with
out the permission of the judge. He
has a right to persuade him, if he can,
to quit work or to go back to work, as
long as he does not use threats or
intimidation. By the terms of this
and used broad and general language,
which is, if enforced by Jealous or
partisan agents, capable of being eX-
tended to a denial of personal liberty.
This is the reason for the emphatic
protest against an indiscriminate use
of the power of injunction.
That the danger is not imaginary
will be seen if any person will read
the injunction subsequently issued by
Judge Collier, and see how much fur
Their it goes. Judges are but men, after
all, and they can no more be clothed
with arbitrary and despotic power
without danger to the people than can
a legislature or an executive. The Col
lier injunction clearly infringes on con-
stitutional liberty. No wrong was ever
yet permanently righted by meeting
it with another wrong. This country
has been threatened with loss or
liberty by the use of violent measures
and danger to life and property in
labor disputes. 1t can also be menaced
just as seriously by an unwarranted
extension of the injunction. Let us
be on guard against BOTH and dis
tribute to the advocates of each i'm
partial criticism, in order that liberty
and constitutional rights be not
threatened by the selfshness and ar
dent zeal of either capital or labor.
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1897-09-22

filed yesterday in the district court by
Hennessy & Cox, contractors, based
on an alleged breach of contract in
connection with the construction OF
conduit for the city.
Plaintiffs allege that on May 10, 1896.
they entered into a contract with the
board of water commissioners to build
wooden conduit from the Otter Lake
subway to Centerville, in Anoka couil-
ty, and that they contracted with de-
PENDANT company to furnish about
100000 feet of the particular wooden
material of which the conduit was to
be erected, all of which was to be
delivered to the contractors before
Sept. Is. Complainants allege the con-
struction of the conduit involved the
digging of a ditch about II, 500 feet
in length. Defendant company is
claimed to have furnished 1873, 1926 feet
of material and then refused to de-
liver any more, which compelled plain
tiffs to bring in the rest of the ma
terial from abroad at great delay tn
the work and additional expense.
Wherefor plaintiffs ask judgment for

at the corner of Third and Sibley
streets, and it affects only few lines.
But it is so much better than the
present arrangement that it will be
accepted thankfully by the public Any
facilities for going directly to the union
depot are gain; and, doubtless, after
trial it will be found that this arrange
ment works smoothly and satisfactor-
lily as far as it's limitations permit. We
regard the union depot connection as
so much more important than all the
other questions agitated in connection
with street railway changes that the
passage of this ordinance seems to be
a great thing for the city.
The ordinance relating to the cable
line has received the very proper
amendments applied to it by the COM
nittee. The privilege of using electric
power is to expire on that line at the
same time as on all others, and Third
next year instead Of waiting till the
end of the century. The one vital
change that ought to have been made,
however, is wanting. Instead Of max
ing a safe grade on the hill, the COM
pany is authorized to put in a safety
device. We do not believe that this
is either a proper safeguard to travel
or a right treatment of property hold
ers in the vicinity where the device
need only refer to past statements by
representatives of the company them
selves. No electric cars should ever
be operated on this line until the hill
is either cut down or tunneled. How
ever when the present ordinance is
compared with the one originally
the public will be more easily recon-
ciled to it's deficiencies; and there is
no doubt that this was the shreWd pur-
pose, astutely carried out, of the pro-
posals that were made. If we do not
get the best nor all that the public has
a right to, we get something in the
way of improved service, and we es-
cape from some of the absurd and out
rageous conditions that were suggest
ed. Having in mind the many infirmi-
ties of the present administration, per-
haps that affords much reason for pub
lie thankfulness.

Frederick J. Romer, of 223 Ramsey
street, begun suit in the district
court yesterday against the st. Paul
Street Railway company for $4,000 as
damages to his improved property on
Ramsey street and Smith and Thomp-
son avenues in the vicinity of defend
ant corporations car station. Plain
tiff alleges that all of his property is
for residence purposes and that one
piece is a tenament valued at $4,000,
but on account of the nuisances which
the car station causes plaintiff has
been compelled to make many changes
in all his houses figuring up to some
thing like $4,000 The complaint
charges that defendant company with
out authority and unlawfully took pos
session of Smith and Thompson ave-
nues in front of and rear of plaintiffs
property and filled the streets with
not less than six switches leading to
the car station; that since 1891 defend
ant company has maintained and oper-
ated other switches and sidetracks in
front of the property and that in do
ing so plaintiffs tenants have been
constantly annoyed day and night by
the noises of running and repairing
cars. AS consequence plaintiff claims
that the value of his property has been
reduced and the rent receipts from it
diminished. He asks judgment and an
abatement of the alleged nuisance.
In the district court yesterday Mary
H. Hishon Administrative of the es-
tate of Patrick w. Hishon, deceased,
brought suit for $4,000 against VIII
A. Lee, a ST. Paul contractor, on ac
count of the death of her husband. She
alleges that on Jan. 10, 1897, near
Butte, Mont, her husband met his
death in an accident on bridge which
the contractor was constructing and
by whom Hishon was employed as Il
laborer A derrick, alleged to have
been insecurity set at the instigation
of defendant for hosting heavy tim
bers, gave way, precipitating Hishon
a distance of orty-eight feet and caus-
ing him injuries from which he died
almost Immediately. Complainant
states that herself and two children
were dependent on Hishon's labors for
support.
Coleman Griffin sued the st. Paul
Street Railway company in the dis
trict court yesterday for $4,000 dam
ages and Michael King asked for $4,000.
In both cases the allegation is that
plaintiffs sustained personal injuries
while in the companyS employ
through the 1atter's carelessness.
