the liberties Of the people. The ag-
gressions OF the Federal Courts have
gone so far as to usurp the powers OF
municipal and State governments. The
Supreme Court Of the United States in
the recent case of Smythe Y. Ames,
1e9, U. S. 466, holds
L. That a remedy by suit in State
court will not prevent relief by in
junction of a Federal Court.
g. That the Federal Courts may en-
join the officers of State from exc
cutting an unconstitutional State stat
ute, and that this is not a suit against
a State within the eleventh amend
ment to the United States constitu-
ton.
s. That the Federal Courts may de-
termine whether rates established by a
State are reasonable and may prevent
the State from enforcing them if the
Federal Court links them unreason-
able These rules were laid down with
reference to business wholly within
the State, and this claim of power is
therefore not based upon the ground
that it is a question of Interstate
commerce.
4. That the question of the reason
ableness of this rate must be deter
mined without reference to the inter-
State business done by the carrier or
profits therefrom; and that this ques-
ton of reasonab leness is to be deter
mined by calculations based upon the
fair value of the property.
According to this decision the State

elf-government and placed at the
mercy of the federal power. The State
may make la VS. and construct consti
tutions ard the Federal Court may de-
clare both unconstitutional and render
them null and void. No wonder JEFF
ferson spoke of the Federal judiciary
as thief usurping the rights and priv
ileges of the people.
An eminent judge in the State of
Georgia in rendering his decision in
the case of Ellison V. Georgia railroad,
we'll said: Some courts live by cor
recting the errors of others and adj
herring to their own. With
these exalted tribunals who live only
to judge the judges, the rule of stare
decisis is not only a canon Of public
SOOu, DuC law OF sell preSefFdltOn.
At the peril Of their lives they must
discover error abroad and be discreet
ly blind to its commission at home"
Until the Federal Courts are brought
to see their own errors and their fur
Their aggressions upon the rights and
liberties Of the people are stopped they
will continue to abuse the writ of in
junction by making it means of pro-
lection to oppressive monopolies in
their greed and avarice, and an instru-
ment of oppression to the toiling
masses of the people.

GOVERNMENT BY INJUNCTION

To the Editor of the Register:
When the Democratic party, in the
Chicago platform, declared against the
abuses of the writ of injunction by the
Federal Courts of the country, a GER
tain element in both political parties
whose political views had led them far
in the direction of Capitalization, abso-
lutism and Imperialism, pronounced
the Democratic doctrine as anarchistic
and revolutionary in it's character.
They seemed to forget that the Demo-
cratic doctrine upon this question was
in perfect accord with the views and
teachings of no less a statesman than
Thomas Jefferson. Jefferson, with the
unobstructed vision of a philosopher
and seer looking down the ages of our
future national history, saw lodged in
the federal judiciary of this country q
power, which in his Judgment, threat
ened the stability of the republic and
the Freedom of the people He said:
at has long been my opinion that the
germ of dissolution of our federal gov
eminent is in the constitution of the
federal Judiciary an irresponsible body
working like gravity by day and by
night, gaining a little to-day and a
little tomorrow. and advancing it's
noiseless step like thief over the field
of jurisdiction, until all shall be
usurped" This was a severe indict-
ment of the federal judiciary, but fully
justified when considered in the light
of subsequent events.
A glance at some OF the more recent
decisions Of the Federal Courts will
show how far these courts have usurp-
ed the governmental power Of the peo-
pie. One able federal judge delivers
himself in the following: ut is not an
objection to the jurisdiction of a
court of equity to grant an injunction
to protect property rights, If the act
sought to be enjoined is also a viola
ton of the criminal law; nor that it
might properly be made the subject of
criminal legislation which the legisla-
ture has not seen fit to provide
That is. when property rights are IN
question an injunction can be grant
ed against the commission Of any
criminal offence. That is the accused
may be deprived of the constitutional
right of trial by jury, and the ques-
ton of his guilt or innocence may be
determined by federal Judge IN
chambers. Certainly this is a bold
and unwarranted ufurpation of power,
and is fraught with great danger to
