Baking

Economy

The anlfacturers of Royal
Baking Powder have always declined
to produce cheap baking powder
at the sacrifice of quality.
The Royal is made from the
most highly refined and wholesome
ingredients, and is the embodiment
of all the excellence possible to be
attained in the highest class baking
powder.
Royal Baking Powder costs only
a fair price, and is cheaper at its
price than any similar article.

Drunks and a Runaway.

The two drunks who were successful
in soaring horse sufficiently to run
away, smash up buggy, break the arm
of one and successfully scar the face Of
the other paid rather dearly for their
fun.
The horse and buggy came from the
Guy Bedwell livery and was one OF the
good outfits of the barn. The horse,
known as a quiet one was lashed so fur
iously that it started and ran away over
turning the buggy and smashing things
up generally. The men were thrown out
and one of them by name Brown had his
left arm broken badly, near the wrist,
The horse threw itself and was also con
siderably hurt. The accident to the men
occurred near the home OF Henry w.

and the man Whitchchurch whose face
was badly bruised and cut was cared for.

and still more unforeseen, soon follow
ed. Fairfax and Cromwell laid siege
to Bristol and after a fierce and dar-
ing storm (Sept. 14). Rupert, who had
promised the king that he could hold
out for four good months, suddenly
capitulated, and rode away to Oxford
under the humiliating protection of
parliamentary convoy. The fall of this
famous stronghold of the west was the
severest of all the kings mortifica-
tions, as the failure of Ruperts wonted
courage was the strangest of military
surprises. That Rupert was too clear
sighted not to be thoroughly discour-
aged by the desperate aspect of the
kings affairs is certain, and the mill
tary difficulties of sustaining long
siege were thought, even by those who
had no reasons to be tender to his
fame, to Justify the surrender. The
king would listen to no excuses, but
wrote Rupert an angry letter, declar-
ing so mean an action to be the great
est trial of his constancy that had yet
happened, depriving him of his COM
missioners, and bidding him begone
beyond the seas. Rupert nevertheless
insisted on following the king to New
ark, and after some debate was de-
clared to be free of all disfoyalty or
treason. but not of indiscretion.-John

A Long Play.

New York Correspondence Chicago
Record: The longest play on record
in this city is being produced on the
installment plan at No. 9 Spring
street. The actors are marionettes,
weighing from thirty to forty pounds
each, and the audience is composed
OF Italian men, women and children,
poorly dressed but intensely appre-
ciative. The men sit in their shirt
sleeves and smoke. and the women
divide their attention between the
stage and the children in their arms.
The play has been unraveling now for
two weeks, and the proprietor says 1t

A LAW UNTO HIMSELF

our life that we have not been out
spoken in denunciation of mob law.
We have endeavored to uphold the
law whether appearing to our judg-
ment right or wrong, because of the
defense which the law gives to all.
We have at all times insisted that
mob leaders have no rights which
the law or the public were bound
to respect. However, the ruling of
Judge Freedman Of New York,
wherein he makes it unlawful for
others to give money or food to
striking cigar makers, is SO clearly
an usurpation of authority, which
cannot be sustained by the law in
any manner whatever; is SO fragrant
violation Of the rights of the peo
pie that every citizen must de-
nounce it, if he has regard for his
own rights along such lines in the
future
Samuel Gompers, preside9 Of
the American Federation of Labor,
has openly de6ed the injunction.
In this action he will receive the
united support of the majority OF
the citizens of the country. He
reasons that no precedent ever ut
tered and become part of the laws
of our country warrants such
manifest disregard Of the right.
In this opinion he will! undoubtedly
be sustained. Reasoning from no
premise whatever, the judge has
arbitrarily issued his mandate and
expects it to be obeyed.
Behind this manifest unjust, ar>
hitrary aad illegal order there must
be reasons for his action, 1t cans
not be possible that the court was
impressed with the justice OF such
an order or that the condition of
the public veal required sueh ex-
hbition of illegal power. 1t would
be ridiculing the law, its interpreta>
ton and its exposition by the courts
OF the country, to say that this
learned 2)judge had discovered the
undiscoverable in the lawwhich gave
him high authority to act as he did
Under no other condition then can
his act he excused than that it was
policy tor the men in whose power
he was held,-the trusts, to act as he
did.
When you destroy the exalted
confidence which the common peo>
pie have always held for the courts,
Tor the personality of the judiciary,
you dig a pit, which power and
blood will never fill. Which leads
to anarchy, monarchy and evils
innumerable.
Who is this Judge that he sets
aside the rights of the people, the
right of protest, the right to feed
the starving, to help the sick and
enfeebled? If ever man was right in
any instance when he violated a
courts order, which is not iniallible
by aoy means, Samuel Gompers is
right in disobeying the ruling OF
the court Of Judge Freedman.
p The right of injunction carries
too many unwritten rights with its
use already, without adding any
more to this distorted proceeding.

more frequently abstain from its
abuse, as it is being used on every
hand to protect the strong against
the weak, the courts will become
