can deny the privileges of the
habeas corpus except when it is
subverted by military authority.
The writ of habeas corpus simp-
ly requires the party who hold a
prisoner to produce the body in
court and show cause why it is
held. 1t does not operate to re-
lease any one accused of crime if
it can be shown that there is a
reasonable ground on which to
base criminal charge. The priv
ileges of the habeas corpus is
the safeguard of the liberties of
the people against NAL, cious seiz-
ure and Imprisonment without
trial or conviction of crime. 1t
is guaranteed to the people by
the Federal constitution and by
the constitutions of all the states
and cannot lawfully be denied in
part OF the country except at
times when the courts of justice
are closed by actual rebellion or
invasion, a condition which At
torney- General Hays himself adj
mitted did not exist in this coun-
ty. Yet he insisted that the
privileges of habeas corpus be
denied in the Stimssn case. Why
this rank usurpation of the rights
of the civil courts and this de-
struction of the constitutional
liberties of the people =? Slim
son is a member of the board of
county commissioners and is ar
rested without cause. He was
not present at the destruction of
the Bunker Hill mill nor in any
way aided it. He is peaceable
law, abiding citizen and is not a
member of the miners union.
The powers which hold him q
prisoner know they cannot show
cause in court why he should be
held. But it is necessary to hold
him a prisoner with Mr.. Boyle,
another member of the board
who is equally innocent, in order
that the lawful majority of the
board of county commissioner;
may be destroyed, which affords
a pretext for the governor of the
state to fill their places by APP
pointment, and then the newly
created board can fill by APP
pointment the other offices of thu
county whose rightfully elected
officers have been seized by mill
tary authority and thrown int
prison without trial. That il
why Attorney General Hays and
Auditor Sinclair resisted tn,
writ of habeas corpus. TIL,
board of county commissioner
must be broken first, then thu
balance will be easy. In tn,
language of Madam Roland: &C
Liberty what crimes are com
mitted in thy name"

Attorney General Hays and

~""oAHcJ NChOi oh luJc duu
Auditor Sinclair, aided by Gen.
Merriam, according to associated
press dispatches, have inaugural
ed a government by injunction"
in the Occur d'Alene country,
wherein, it is alleged by the big
metropolitan sheets, that they
have removed Sheriff Young and
two county commissioners, and
seem to have County Attorney
Samuels spotted" BY what
authority of law are those Off
GERS, who are the peoples choice,
removed ? Our Idaho law pro-
vides that an elected officer must
be first tried before a jury in the
District court for malfeasance OF
Office, and convicted, before he
can be removed, and until that
time he is an officer despite all
removals based on the Hays
Sinclair Merriam law.
They even go further than
this in giving orders to the mine
owners as to what kind of men
they must employ. AS every
body is presumed innocent by
our law until found guilty, an
injury is thus worked upon in
nocent men and the rights of 6
mine owner are trampled over
under apparent color of law. The
union miners said the Bunker
Hill must not employ scab men
the government representatives
say that mine owners shall not
employ union men. They are
both right or both wrong in ex,
ercising their power.
Some papers refer to the
"plucly attorney general anC
the ''plucky auditor" It's the
kind of pluck the kid showed
standing upon the roof of house
when it defied wolf on thu
street below. They can easily
be "plucky" with lots of armed
negroes in blue at their backs
and those over whom the"pluck'
is shown are confined in stock

Sheriff Young is sneeringly re
ferred to as being now in thu
stockade a prisoner and on tbs
dishwashing gang. Mr.. Youns
creditably and ably represented
Shoshone county in the Stat'
senate two years ago, and ha'
ever held good reputation, an'
until his guilt be proven w'
would hold good opinion o
him. There is tendency, how
ever, for the tools of monopolie
to blacken the reputation of lab
or advocates. Even in our owl
county men of the former staml
have tried to blacken the reputa
ton of local labor leaders, whel
they were not worthy to blackel
their shoes.
