4 STABBING AFFAIR.

On last Tuesday night, about nine
O'Clock, an affair occurred which
came near resulting in the death of
one Of the participants, and the seri-
Gus injury of another. y row oc-
Cured in Jeuck \ kieffer's saloon, in
which Harry Peuberthy, Ben Tonkin
aud Charles Noble participated, -
all of whom had been drinking. Pen
berthy and Noble came to blows, and
were parted. Then Tonkin and Noble
fought. Noble, who was knocked
down, drew knife and stabbed
Tonkin back under the left arm. The
cut was deep. Tonkin started to
find q doctor, and was soon taken to
the office of Drs. Eastman \ Bailey,
where the blood was staunched and
the wound dressed.
The case is greatly to be regretted,
and ought to be warning to those
who are inclined to quarreling and
drinking. Men may claim the right
to do these things; but some one must
pay the penalty and bear the shame
and disgrace-too often the one who
is helpless and in no way responsible.
Out of regard for the families of those
connected with the sad affair, we
would gladly withhold names did not

peace and quiet demand their publ

When the Legislature of 1899 repealed
the Railroad Commission Act ana all
amentlatory acts, it wiped out the entire
system and left no doubt of it's Intention,
and lit left no place for construction.
There were no other acts with winch the
repeating act should be construed. There
fore the doctrine of in par materla mas
no application.
1t is plain. that the General Assembly
intended TO abolish Dr.. AbbOtt's office.
It's plain that it has effected its purpose
unless the doctrine of Hoke VS.. Hcnder-
SON shall again be stretched far beyond
the contemplation of the great ChieI
Justice who delivered the opinion made
to cover such cases.
1t has never heretofore been extended
anywhere approaching such case as
that at bar. When it. is made to cover
such a case. we will in effect have the
courts exercising a veto power over the
Legislature in State whose constitution
expressly denies the veto power to any
one. Such an extension of that case
would be little short of revolution. The
tendency is dangerous one. 1t has
alarmed the. people. The opinion Of the
Supreme Court delivered by Judge Doug
las in Caldwell VS.. Wilson calls attention
to that danger in more fitting words
than | can use. and strongly intimates
that even eighteen months ago Hoke VS..
henderson had been stretched too far.
If too far then. how can the relator nope
to have the same court to go many fllf-
longs further than any one ever dreamed
of going heretofore, and to extend 1t TO
his case?
| If your Honor pleases. The least Of all
that is involved in this case is the office.
We NAV assume that both the claimants

might rest content whatever the decision

Office rises the question whether the
right of the people to control, through

| construction, or whether it shall remain

AN ungranted powers remain with the

resentatives. Every act of the Legisla-
ture is valid uuless in cOntravention of
| some section Of our constitution. WHAT
section is violated by the repeal of the
Railroad Commission or the enactment Of
| the Corporation Commission Act?
Judge Douglas, speaking for the Court

lature and all reasonable DOUBTS should

For an Editor to Recommend Patent
Medicines?
From Sylvan Valley News, Breyard,
y. G..
1t may be a question whether the
editor of newspaper has the right to
publicly recommend any of the various
proprietary medicines which flood the
market, yet as a preventive of suffering
we feel it a duty to say a good word
for Chamberlain Collie, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy. We have known
and used this medicine in our family for
twenty years and have always found it
reliable In many cases a dose of this
remedy would save hours of suffering
while a physician is awaited We do not
believe in depending implicitly on any
medicine for cure, but we do believe,
that if bottle of Chamberlaip's
Diarrhoea Remedy were kept on h1nd
and administered at the inception ~ an
attack much suffering might be svoided
and in very many cases the presence
of a physician would not be required. AT
least this has been our experience during
the past twenty years. For sale every
