In domestic trade and trade on

registered tonnage is used in the war
revenue act, it is held that it relates only
to vessels required to be registered, in dis
tinctibn from enrolled vessels and licensed
vessels.

Gov. TANNER, of Illinois, is pur-
suing a queer course for an Exec
utive acting under constitutional
government. Practically he assumes
"A dictatorship in disarming the en-
ployes of the coal company at Vir-
den, who are simply defending their
property and lawful rights. Gov.
Tanner also usurps authority IN
using the State militia to prevent
the company from bringing in negro
miners to take the place of the
strikers. His course has most
serious bearing on the nation. If
his example Of official demagogy is
followed law becomes mockery
and mob rule is ascendant. No re-
public can long survive if such ac-
tons are upheld by the people. The
miners no doubt have their griev-
ances, but they have no legal nor
moral right to organize and prevent
the coal company from employing
laborers to take the places of the
strikers as long as it commits no
unlawful act,
