A Queer Case Comes Up In
Bourbon County.
A Blacksmith Selling Out His
Business
ENTERS A CONTRACT
Not to Work In Fort Scott
Again at His Trade.
Court Enjoins Him But Injunc-
tiOn is Ignored.
A Jury to Say Whether He
Can Work or Not.
sNTERS A CONTRACT

Fort Scott, Oct. 27.-Judge SinOns has
been called upon in a unique Fort Scott
case to pass upon the constitutionality
of the new law which gives every per-
son charged with contempt the right to
trial by jury. The decision will de-
termine whether or not Blacksmith Nc
Carger, whose shop is on Oak street,
can continue in that business
Some time ago McCarger sold out his
business and entered into a contract not
to engage in the business in Fort Scott
again A month or two later he ac-
cepted employment at the trade in his
brothers shop Suit was brought to
enjoin him from working, and Judge
Simons issued an injunction so restrain
ing him. McCarger Immediately ignored
the injunction and went to work He
has been working regularly since. At
torneys billiard and Hulett went before
Judge Simons and demanded that an
attachment be issued for him for con-
tempt of court. County Attorney
Sheppard, McCarger's attorney, opposed
the issuance of attachment He argued
that under the law McCarger would be
entitled to trial by a jury, and that no
jury would convict him of working,
though it is not disputed that he has
been dis0beying the order of the court
Judge Simons was reluctant to issue the
attachment because he said he did not
like to summon a special jury to try the
case. Mr.. billiard notified him that he
proposed to attack the constitutionality
of the contempt trial law. He argued
that 1t had been declared unconstitu-
tional by the supreme court of three
states and that the common pleas court
of Kansas City had found the Kansas
law unconstitutional 1t is claimed that
this law so abridges the power of
court to enforce its orders as to render
it helpless to do So
In the afternoon Judge Sirnons ordered
an attachment issued and McCarger was
placed under arrest. He will give bond

count OF a sprained arm. Middlekaum

goal three times, and the score stood 20
to in favor of the Normals- Peterson's
line bucking. Fishers end runs, the

Vermillion, S. D.. Oct 27.-The once

rest went out and walked over the South
Dakota university eleven, running up a
score Of ~, while the local boys failed to
get anything which in any way resem-
bled a touchdown. The Kansans were
simply invincible and far out of the
class of the Dakota boys. The Dakota
eleven hardly supplied good practice
for the cyclones from Kansas. They
walked through the line and circled the
ends as if there was no opposition what
ever. The backs were regular hurri-
canes When they started around the
ends or through the line there was no
such thing as stopping them. From the
time of the kick-Off everything was

Majority Rule.
st. Paul Dispatch


The principle of majority rule implies
necessarily the governing Of a minority
by the majority not only without the
consent of but against the will OF the
former. Mr.. Bryan himself illustrates
this. Four years ago he led a minority
that were bitterly opposed to the gold
standard of value and attributed the de-
preston that then still afflicted industry
to that standard. A comparatively small
numerical majority decided against him.
Did he subside? Did he accept the de-
cision? Has he not for four years pro-
tested against it, and Is he not now lead
ing another force for its overthrows Has
he not, ever since then, 50 far as that
question is concerned, been governed
without his consent? True, there is In
the acceptance of citizenship an Implied
assent TO whatever the majority may de-
cree, and there is the right of appeal to
the ballot, hnt, nevertheless, until revers-
al of judgment, there is the condition OF
being unconsentingly governed.

Very Useful to Have Around.
Omaha Bee


When there is need for him the public
soon discovers that the soldier Is not half
a bad fellow to have around. At Calves
ton, when the heartlcss and lawiess ele-
ment commenced the looting and mutila-
ton of the dead, it was the soldier, with
his discipline, who interposed the first
check. The company Of regulars sta
toned there had lost a large per cent. of
its numbers in that awful calamity, but
those who remained were the first to take
a hand, under the direction of their OFF,
GERS, to prevent social disorder and pro-
tee the living and dead. Ii Is men like
this, when they only amount to one in a
thousand, that democracy pretends Is a
menace to the liberties Of the people.
