Company LII. N. q.

Cresco gets the vacancy in the state
militia made by the mastering out Of
the Oelwein company. Adjutant
General Byers was in Cresco this week
and made all necessary arrangements
for organizing a company, including
the appointment of DR.. Scripture as
examining surgeon, and as soon as the
boys meet and organize, he will come
here and muster them in. He is
desirous that they attend the state
encampment to be held at Waterloo
the latter part of July. The selection
of Cresco is said to be due to the pro-
fciency in drill displayed by the Rough
Rider company at the big Waterloo
rally of the last presidential campaign,
it attracting the attention of the state
officials, and the officers of that organi-
zation are being consulted in regard
to the proposed company, which, OF
course, will be organized along non
political lines
The state uniforms and equips all

defeat the ends strived for. The word Of
a self-confessed violator, who is paid to
secure just such evidence, isn't calculated
to go very far with honest men, without
strong corroborating evidence. 1t is not
hard to understand that no honorable
man would engage in this kind of bust
ness, and it is always a difficult task to
attempt to reform the world, with this
the Law Enforcement League now
know. There is only one way in which
to enforce these laws, and that is to edu-
cate the public sentiment of community
up to that standard when it will not per-
nit such violation"

~ DOL, possibly cold weather is at
hand, the coal bins of the people
~ are empty. and there is still no
prospect of the termination Of
the coal strike.
The comfort, the health, and possibly
in the case of the very poor, the lives
even of some are to be put in jeopardy,
because the disagreeing, and mutually
defiant coal operators and miners, will
not come to terms.
This condition, at first only inconven-
lent now threatens to become public
calamity, and the question is being in
dignantly asked-Whether the people
have any rights that coal operators and
miners are bound to respect.
This question is being answered in
Massachusetts,, by the institution of
Equity Suits in the Supreme Court Of
that State, asking that Receiver be
appointed for the six Coal Mining and
Coal Carrying Companies, the Philadel-
phia and Reading Coal and Iron Com
pany, and the Pennsylvania Coal Com
pany, who, when appointed shall con-
duct at once the business of mining and
supplying coal to the people.
These suits are based upon a ruling of
Chief Justice Waite, of the Supreme
Court of the United States, in the his
toric case of Mum vs.. the State of Hi
nois, in which it is held that
"When private property is affected
with public interest it ceases to be
juris privati 1.-THE subject of mere pri-
vate rights only. This was said by
Lord Chief Justice Hale more than
two hundred years ago, and has been
accepted without objection as an es-
sentia element in the law of property
ever since. Property does become
clothed with public interest when
used in a manner to make it Of public
consequence and affect the commun-
ity at large. When, therefore, one
devotes his property to use in
which the public has an interest he
in effect grants to the public an in
terest in that use, and must submit
to be controlled by the public for the
public good, to the extent of the in
terest he has thus created"
This legal remedy even if it should
eventually prove effectual, would not
however afford immediate relief, but II

TARIFF REVISION IN MASSACHUSETTS.

THE existence Of a popular de-
mand for Tariff revision even
Il in the New England States,
finds fresh verication, in the
success of Mr.. Eugene NJ. Foss, q
wealthy manufacturer Of Massachusetts,,
who has just been nominated for Con-
gress by the Republicans in the 18th
District of that State, over Col. Melvin
O. Adams, the nominee Of the regular
Republican Organization.
Locally, Mr.. Foss is recognized as a
man Of force, energy and ability, who
until he announced his candidacy was
practically n stranger to the Party
Leaders, yet so strong was the sentiment
of which he declared himself the expon-
ent. that all the candidates in closely
contested districts who followed his ex-
ample were successful, the most notice.
able case being that of Capt. O. i. Gar
diner n son-in-law of Senator Lodge
Mr.. Foss since his successful contest
has declared that he has no intention Of
forcing his opinions upon the Republi
can Nominating Convention Should the
Convention however fail to incorporate
n Tariff revision plank in its platform. it
will present the incongrouS spectacle of
a Congressional candidate advocating a
policy, that the nominating body of the
party does not approve. the High Tariff
element Of his party already having ex-
pressed its disapproval of his views on
revision. The outcome in Massachus-
etts will be looked for with more than
ordinary interest.
