tee destroys the mutually of the rem
edy- But TO this it may be answered that.
as already stated, the defendant has the
possibility OF enforcing all the rights for
winch he stipulated in the agreement
which IS ali that he can reasonably ask;
furthermore, owing to the peculiar ma
ture and circumstances of the business.
the reservation upon the part of the plain
TN 10 terminate upon short notice does
not make the whole contract negotiable.
Contract Fair and Reasonable.
In this connection another observation
may be made, which is that the plaintiff.
BY the a It Of bringing this suit, has not
discovered any intention Of exercising the
right to terminate the contract on its own
part. This is a necessary inference from
its action in asking the court to exercise
its equity power to enforce the agree
ment made by the defendant not to give
his services to any other club. Besides.
the remedy by Injunction is elastic and
adaptable. and is wholly within the con-
troll of the court. II granted now it can
be easily dissolved whenever a change in
the circumstances or IN the attitude Of
the pIaintin should seem to require It.
The granting or refusal of an Injunction
or its continuance is ever matter of
strict right, but is always question of
