They represent the United States courts

In the court OF appeals this morning

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. Through a
decision rendered today by the United
States circuit court OF appeals the ten
Idaho strikers who were convicted Of
conspiracy to obstruct a train carrying
the mails will secure their release from
San Quentin.
The case IL one growing out of the big
strike in Idaho in 1899 and the destruction
OF the mill of the Bunker Hill and SulH-
van Mining Company.
In their decision Judges Gilbert. Ross
and Morrow call attention to the fact that
the Indictment does not charge that the
conspiracy had for its purpose to know
ingly ohstruct the mails. Continuing the
judges say;
1T Is alleged that they wilifully and
knowingly delayed and obs,ructed the
movement Of the train While II is true
that the laws make the railways OF the
United States postal reads for carrying
the mail and a large number Of passenger
trains are engaged In carrying the natl.
II " nevertheless true that many passen-
ger trains do not carry the mail. The
defendants IN this case are not charged
with the overt act of obstrncting the
passage OF the mails. but with a con-
spiracy. II IS the confederation and con-
spiracv to commit an offense agains, the
United States that they are called upon
to answer. AS charged in the Indictment,
the conspiracy II declared TO have for its
purpose to knowingly hinder and denv
the movement and passage OF certain
railroad car and train. which car Il Is
subsequently alleged carried the mats ~
the United States. 1t is no offense against
the United States to hinder and delay
the passage OF a railway car and conse-
quentiy. II Is no ofrense TO e0nspire or
confederate for that purpose. Such an
offense must be dealt with under the laws
Of the state
The Seattle post-intelligencer. [volume] (Seattle, Wash. Terr. [Wash.]) 1888-1914, 1900-10-02
Lacks Essential ingredient.

THE conspiracy as charged In the In
dictment lacks an essential ingredient
to an offense against the United states,
10 wit That the defendants knew that
the mails OF the United States were car
rled upon the train, which they conspircd
TO ohstruct II may be that they all had
such knowledge or that the facts and
circumstances shown in the evidence were
sufficient 10 charge them with such
knowledge but that does not dispense
with the necessity OF setting forth in the
indictment all the elements of the wrong
ful act which they conspired 10 commit"
The decision quotes from Hawkins as
follows:
In an indictment nothing material
shall be taken by intendment or impliCa-
tiou.'
Continuing the court says;
THE above authority sustains the prop
osition that an Indictment Tor conspir-
acy 20 commit an onepso against the
United States must charge every element
of the 0ifeuso as fully as n tae indlci-
ment was Tor its peEpetration."

Manufacturers and their immediate
customers are beginning to get them
selves in shape for the dull times that
they know would ensue in the event OF
the election of Mr.. Bryan. Reports
from all over the country indicate
that Bryan clauses are soon to be
the rule in signing new contracts The
latest is a contract entered into be-
tween the New Haven Carriage COM
pany and the J. Curley company OF
Brooklyn The contract specifies that
the New Haven company shall furnish
the Cur1ey company with a certain
number of carriages at a certain price
until Noven Der 18th. 1901 With the
contract received by the Cur1ey com
pany was the following letter from
the New Haven company:
I'VE incIose herein agreements sign
ed You will notice that we have made
an Endorsement at the bottom Will
you please indorse this yourself? 1t is
just as good policy for you to 1ndorse
it as it is for US, for you do not wish
to be bound down by anything in case
of such adverse circumstances as
would occur in the event of Bryan s
election
The Endorsement reads:
This agreement to be null and void
in case William J. Bryan is elected
president of the United States in No
vember. 19O0-''
Other large concerns are indorsing
important contracts in this way, their
managers well knowing that a long
season of business depression would
follow the success of the Democratic
ticket large Philadelphia dry
goods house in placing contracts
abroad insists that the contracts be
similarly indorsed-
The business men know what four
years of Organism would mean to them
and the working people are equally
aware of the fact. If these classes
are not prosperous. they will be un
able to consume as much of the prod
ucts of the farm as they would in the
event of Republican success, and the
farmer knows the value of having an
of prosperity among those who
eat and wear his products.

PATRIOTISM NOT IMPERIALISM

WAS it Imperialism that like
mighty torrent swept across this great
prairie state and called to arms your
boys in 1861? Was it Imperialism that
caused thousands OF the boys, young
and aggressive and equally patriot
ic you, to respond to the nation s
call in 1898? Those boys who went
forth two years ago went to keep the
old flag here, to defend it at Santiago
San Juan, Cavite and to keep it from
defamation at the hands of Aguina1do
and his Tagal Malays. and all the sym
pathizers both abroad and at home. No
imperialism in that; simply patriotism
"a term unknown to some of our boy
orators. I say to you that when any
one tries to scare you about the atti-
tude of the boys of '61, say to them
that they went forth, not for gain, but
that the flag that went up at Vicks-
burg, Missionary Ridge, Cavite-car-
ried, too, by those heroes Dewey,
Sampson and Schley-went there to
stay; TO stay forever, to stay long

after that, but he has never been any
too loyal a Republican He has twice
left the party before this campaign,
the most notable occasion being
when he would not support the late
James c. Blaine
1t might be added that Mr.. Schurz
sees only Imperialism in this cam
paign. and that he joins Mr. Bryan in
hiding the financial issue, the most
important Of all.
The Globe-republican., 1900-10-25

has criticized his own party. In the
latter part of 1862 he attacked the
conduct of the civil war and gave his
opinions to President Lincoln in I'M
measured terms. On the oath of No
vember in that year, Mr.. Lincoln
wrote him a long letter in which he
said: IF 1 must disregard my own
judgment, and take yours, I must also
take that of others; and by the time
that I should reject all that I should
be advised to reject, I would have
none left, Republican or others-not
even yourself. For, be assured, my
