A QUESTION:.

Editor Backbone:
Why is it that the cream of society
and the real queens Of society have
not just as large an influence regard
ing some important questions as the
drinking classes among women who,
by their demoralizing practices, are
preventing reform movements, al
though unconsciously, perhaps I re-
fer to the advertising of liquors in
newspapers and magazines, to the
practice of christening yachts with
bottles of champagne, and to that of
allowing such obnoxious beverages
place at White House functions. 1t is
time that these long established GUS
toms were banished from our country
and that something more in conson-
ance with the demands Of justice were
substituted Thus shall we keep step
with the spirit of the age.

RIGHT, YOU ARE.

To our mind it doesn't cut very
much figure in the cause of tenn
perance whether Monticello votes
license or no license. If there are 80
votes for no license on Tuesday it is
safe to say that 7S of the 80 will vote
license next November at the state
election for members of the legis-
lature. If prohibition is good for the
village of Monticello it is good for
Wright county and the balance of the
state, and the only way you can get
prohibition is to vote for prohibition
candidates who will make laws to
that effect and for prohibition officers
from the county attorney to the gov
ernor to enforce the same when en-
acted.-Monticello Times.

A "Peculiar Business"

Taken as a whole, the liquor bus
mess is certainly not a business
which stands well in comparison
with other occupations. It tends
to produce criminality in the popu-
lation at large and. law-breaking
among the saloon-keepers them
selves. President Roosevelt in
McClure's Magazine October 1895.
He has no enemy you say:
Indeed the boast is poor.
If he has stood the fray
OF duty the brave endure,
He must make foes.
If he has none,
Small work has done;
Has hit no foe
A deadly blow,
Nor fought battle for the right
When the hosts Of Hell were in the fight.
IT'S he who fears to do the right
That has no enemies to fight.

Why the omission7

Judge Murray e. Tuley Of Chicago
calls attention to an interesting fact
relating to the form in which the bill
against the beef trust has been pre-
pared. Judge Tuley says that, while
personally be is strongly inclined to
believe in the strenuous honesty of
President Roosevelt, everyone will
not he charitable, and there will in
evitably be those who will charge that
President Roosevelt, an avowed candi-
date for reelection brought this suit
agalnat members of the beef trust with
a view of captivating common people
and left a loophole In the bill for the
escape of the trusts"
Judge Tuley points out that the bill
does not pray for temporary injunc-
ton. 1t is true temporary injunc-
tion is asked for, but the request is
made in the form of a motion. Judge
Tuley says:
l have read the bill against the beef
trust carefully, aud IL presents one
striking peculiarly. In all my eX-
perience at the bar and on the bench
never before knew of a temporary in
junction being asked for when it had
not been prayed in the bill. The usual
methods is to pray for temporary in
junction and then pray that on the
final hearing it may be made perma-
nent. Why such a universal usage
was diSregarded in this case I do not
know, but the consequences may be
serious.
| have serious doubts whether the
court has the right to grant a tempo
rary Injunction that is not prayed in
the bill, and, of course, l doubt
whe Their the court will grant it. You
may be sure the defendants will Stub
bornly oppose it on this ground, and
cannot see how they are to be an
Swered.
But the failure of the temporary in
junction, though matter of consider
able Importance, is not nearly so i'm
portant as the construction they may
put on the adoption of such an irreg-
ular proceeding by the president and
the attorney general. If the omis-
sion of the prayer from the bill should
be followed by refusal OF the tenn
porary injunction the inference will
be irresistible to many minds that
the failure to enjoin was intentional.
The permanent Injunction, If grant
ed, will do the trust no immediate
harm. An appeal will be taken to the
|supreme court and it will be three
years at least before decision will be
reached. In the meanwhile the next
presidential election will have &C.
cured.
1t will be interesting to watch the
court proceedings and see if Judge
Tuley has interpreted the situation
correctly. The motion for tempo
rary injunction will be heard on May
90 before Judge Grosscup, unless de-
murrer should be filed and argued in
the mean time.-World- Herald.

DUPLExw1RELEss TELEGRAPH
The Steamer Kronprinn Wilhelm Is
to De Equipped with Special
AppRrntusa

1t is more than probable that the

least two reasons. Not only will the
German Lloyd steamer have the honor
of conveying the emperor's brother to
America, but during the trip may be
recorded one Of the most important
Developments in the history OF wire
less telegraphy. Il Is expected by the
Marooni company thar messages will
be transmitted from the vessel to the
shore for at least 600 miles out. while
the more confident expect that she will
be in communication with lend o thou
sand miles out, and that it may be pos
sible to follow The ship with messages
oil the way across the Atlantic.
Cuthbert Hall, manager Of the Mar
conf company, will equip the vessel
with special apparatus, by which he
believes It will be possible to send
two messages ct one time, the two in
stallations on shore being differently
tuned. One message will appear on
the first shore instrument ond another
on the second, If the arrangement can
be completed by the time the Kron-
prinz Wilhelm sells.
Mr.. Hall said that all the vessels OF
the American line will shortly be
equipped with the Marconi service, to-
gether with the MinnehaLa, of the At
lantic Transport line.
