FEDERAL JUDICIAL USURPATION.

Judge Simonton's decision in the James
case, apart from the fact that it keeps
the widow out of money legally belong
ing to her, attempts to prohibit the SUI
preme court of this State from execu-
ting its own judgments. The proper
remedy was by an appeal from the SUI
preme court of this State to the Supreme
court ut Washington That subordi-
nate Federal court should enjoin action
taken III consequence of Il decision of
the Supreme court of Il State is without
precedent in the annals of the law. and
is subversive of the fundamental princi-
pies governing State and Federal Judi
cial relations.
1t is just such corporation decisions as
these that are arousing the people. They
warrant and call for such legislation as
the Democratic State Convention prom
ised to enact, preventing corporations
carrying their eases from the State to
the Federal courts.
The usurpations, almost always grasp
ed in order to help great corporations
violate just laws and regulations. is
calling for denuncatons on every hand.
Hon. John w. Akin, president of the
Georgia Bar Association. devoted his add
dress to reciting the unjust discrimina-
tons made by Federal courts all over
the country, in favor of corporations and
against the people. The address created
a profound sensation. and the corpora
taste" &c, of President Atkins introduce
ing such topic in his annual address.
This is not a question Of taste. 1t is
n question that has to do with the lber-
ties and rights of the people Unless
the giant corporations quit packing the
Federal bench with their tools, the Fed
eral courts will permanently become the
destroyers Of our rights.
Jefferson warned the people that the
rights was in the usurpations of the
Federal Judiciary. 1t begins to look rs
if he was n prophet, and that his proph-
ecy has been fulfilled The time has
come, certainly in this section of the
country. when no lawyer has the ghost
of chance for promotion to the Fed
era bench unless he wears or will
promise to wear the yoke of the South
ern Railway, which is reputed TO have
contributed a quarter of Il million dol
lars to help elect Mckinley.
The president of the Georgia Bar As
ISOLATION has won the gratitude of all
honest men by pointing out the menace
of Federal judicial usurpation.

OUGHT TO BE KEPT AS A SYSTEM.

A gentleman has sent us very strong
and elaborate article with reference to
the attempt of the New York committee
to require the sale of the G.. L. and Y. v.
r. r., by divisions. 1t is contended that
the real purpose is to disrupt and destroy
one of the great railroad lines in the
State, and it is intimated that those
seeking division represent a competing
purposes portion of the road and rem
der the remainder valueless. The threat
of an appeal to the Circuit court is char
acterized as simply part of the play
it is to gain time" The interest Of the
stockholders, bondholders, patrons and
all others. except the corporation try
ing to gobble upthe road. is for it to be
sold all together and kept as a separate
and Independent system.
The truth is that the G.. f. and Y. V.
is destined to be a very valuable system.
It's builders were ruined financially by
the 1894 panic. If the times had been
as good as when they projected the road,
they would not only have given the State
great railroad system, but would have
also made fortunes for themselves. As
it is, New York bondholders, if they
were acting for themselves and not in
the interest of another railroad, would
join the Baltimore bondholders and the
patrons of the road in fighting TO pre-
serve the system as whole.

SUIT AGAINST FIELD MUSEUM,
Trouble Over the Sale of Exhibits
Donated to 1t.

Trouble Over the Sale of Exhibits
Donated to 1t.
CHICAGO, December 24.-A question as
to the right of the Field Columbian Muse
UNI to sell articles donated to 1t for pur-
poses of exhibition is the issue involved in
case on hearing before Judge Chetlain
and jury in the superior court. The de-
fendant, the Field Columbian Museum
maintains that 1t has the right to sell OF
otherwise dispose of any donations which
1t has received for exhibition purposes with
out making any return to the donor.
The case is that of Nav & Co. of Lon
don, England, who in 1894 sent mosaics
and vases valued at s15,0O0 to the museum
as donation for exhibition. The greater
part of the exhibition, which could not be
utilized on account of want of space, was
stored, and the English firm notified the
goods were subject to their order being
safe, but without Insurance. Later a fire
broke out in the warehouse and the exhib-
its were somewhat soled. Finally the goods
of Nav & Co., together with some other
property of the Field Museum were sold
at auction for about $500. 1t is claimed
that the price was ridiculously low. The
plaintiffs, Nav G. Co., aver that they do
mated the exhibit for educational purposes
and that the museum had no right to sell
the goods. They ask the jury to award
them $4,000.
In defense the museum people maintain
that 1t is their right to exhibit articles do
mated for that purpose or to sell them, as
they see fit.

tees of the boys reform school, appeared

sufficient number of watchmen.
Mr.. j. Ormond Wilson. in behalf of the

tion as provided in the House bill, in order
that the fund for maintenance and repairs
might be equal to the needs of the institu-
ton.
Senators present during the hearing today
were Messrs. Allison, Cullom, German and
Teller
day the Commissioners will again be called
before them in relation to the District bill.
The bill has not been fully reviewed by the
committee and there are a number of items
of appropria tons that have been passed
over which will be considered more fully.
The committee has a number of requests
for hearings from people, a number of
whom will probably be heard during the
latter part of next week. The committee is
anxious to make short work of the bill,
however, and will endeavor to avoid any
protracted hearings on it.
