The merchants of Chanute are en-
jOying an unusually large trade this
fall. Especially the clothing and dry
goods men seem to have all they can
possibly attend to. They all are lib
eral advertisers and we rejoice in their
great prosperity.
A stranger passing along fourth

there was circus about Bloomheart

impossible to get into their store for

quite apparent in this county.
1t is very gratifying to see this fall,
so many of the substantial farmers in
Chanute trading, who live in the strip
Of territory east of US as far as Wal
nut and north almost to Moran. 1t
must be the fact of the large stocks
carried by our merchants and the low
prices they are making is getting
noised around in this country.

JUDGMENT TO Be SUSPENDED.

Judge Undertake has adjudged the
railroads guilty for issuing free passes.
The law says the penalty in each case
shall be mot less than 81, 900 nor more
than $1,000 The matter is adjourned
over to Friday morning. 1t is asserted
that the object is to procure Judgment
suspended on payment of costs" The
point is, that then no appeal lies and
the case can not go to the Supreme
court Having bargained with the
Governor that the State shall not APP
peal to the United States Supreme
court as to the North Carolina Railroad

equally anxious to avoid an appeal to
our own Supreme court on the question
of free passes. The railroads owe this
State much for open and shameless vlo-
lation of the laws. When after years of
immunity a conviction is had in one case
the effort IS to get off with payment OF
costs and stop the appeal" When
poor men violate the law they are pun
ished. When Pierpont Morgan, and
those who ride in palace cars, openly
and defiantly violate the law, it is ask.

A SHIRAS COME TO JUDGEMENT.

In his speech as temporary chairmah
of the Populise State Convention in 1896
Mr.. l.. G. Caldwell. chairman of the
Railroad Commission, said there is
only one qualification necessary for en-.
trance into the Populist party, and tha3
is do Right"
That ought to be the requisite, moi
only for getting into the Populist party,
but of all other parties as well, and ii
also ought TO be the requisite for stays
ing in.

Whatever explanation or excuse Mr..
Caldwell may offer. his vote yesterday
TO restore the high passenger rates
proves that Shiras has come to iudg-

of Mr. Caldwell as a Railroad Commits
sioner has been as inglorious as it has
been short. He started in, with the
Governor, to punish Vice President An
drews and other Southern Railway Off
GERS for contempt, and nothing hut con-
dgn punishment would satisfy him. He
winds up by asking to have a mol pros

RIGHT OF AN APPEAL BARGAlNED AWAY.

When Simonton usurped authority to
issue an injunction to command the
sovereign State of North Carolina not
to test the validity of the midnight ~
year lease of her most valuable proper
tv. good men stood aghast. Impartial
and able lawyers have united in say
ing that on appeal to- the United states
Supreme court this usurpation wouid ne
rebuked. and that any Judgment Sim
onton might make would be set ASIDE
Evidently Morgan and Andrews tnanK
So. Otherwise why their intense anxiety
tn bargain with Governor Russell that
there should be no appeal takenE Ihey
arc NOT men to give much for nothing.
Would they have offered to pay not
only their own lawyers, but also the
States lawyers and the States costs II
ON appeal they felt certain that simon
TON would be affirmed? Not much. 'On
tbe contrary, quite the reverse" The
whole play has been to have the sacred
right of appeal bargained away, and
the monstrous wrong thus clinched. The
brmblest individual in the land has the
right of appeal to right his wrongs. But
the proud State of North Carolina is
bound hand and foot. Governor Rus
sell and Col Andrews have made the
bargain and from the contamination of
the great crime and outrage the State
is allowed no appeal save to heaven and
TO the sense of right implanted in the
breasts of her people.

fishes his character as an unstable,
choleric and webbing officer. As a
matter of fact, the assumption that the
Supreme court would validate the lease
is not justified by law and precedent.
OF course Simonton will decide for the
Southern Railway That has been un-
derstood all along Russell, in order 10
make political capital, lost the strong
points in the case when he valnly tired
to prove fraud. That attempt to biacken
tbe character of good men damaged his
case terribly. But if he had rested on
legal fraud, involving no moral turpi-
tude on the part of the directors who
made the lease, and the question of
jurisdiction, many of the best lawyers
believe the lease would have been an
nulled, and they believe an appeal from
Simonton now would result in a decree
annulling the lease. Whether that is
true or not, a decision from the Supreme
court, settling the question once for all,
would have been welcomed by the peo-
pie. To abandon such a straightforward
method of permanent settlement in or
der 10 save a few hundred or a few
thousand dollars expenses, and by deny
ing the 100000 per annum of savings
in passenger rates TO travellers, not to
speak of the other provisions of the
deal is method of denying and

tolerated.
