SPECIAL TO the INTER MOUNTAIN.
Helena, July I4.-ln the supreme court
today the case OF Charles II. Smell versus
W. w. Welch, state superintendent of
public instructions and the members of the
textbook commission, was dismissed.
The court decided that the injunction OF
the lower court had already been observed,
in that the textbook commission had OBJ
served the terms of the order.
History Of the Case.
The last legislature, after a hard fight
made by the labor union representatives,
passed law requiring that the school
books used i'll this state bear the union
label.
Those publishing companies which do
not employ union men were naturally un-
able TO sell their stock, as long as this
held good
Charles II. Smell, a Helena gardener,
instituted suit in the district court.
He applied for an injunction, requiring
that the textbook commission consider all
bids, whether the books mentioned con-
tanned the union label or not.
Injunction From Clements.
Judge Clements issued an injunction in
May, restraining the textbook commits
sion from sitting unless it did so consider
all bids.
The commission appealed to the supreme
court.
The latter now decides there is no longer
ground for a trial as the commission. by
considering bids without the union label
and even ordering some which do not
bear it, has complied with the order OF
the court and has in no way disregarded

Private letters written by partisans

Perhaps the cases of starvation are not

quoted above insists upon. Enough has,
however, been authoritatively published
from authentic sources to horrify the
world and convince 1t that the condi-
ton of the Russian Jews is directly
chargeable to Russian society If not TO
the Russian government. There are
sixteen Russian provinces where Jews
are permitted to live. From the re-
mainder of the empire they are rigidly

That the Hebrew is obnoxious to the

hatred of the Hebrew Into its laws as
of the Jew himself or the half barbarous

for Russian and Jew in Russia is man
ifestly false and until tne government
recognizes the Jew as citizen the ig-

AGIN HEARST.

Dou you take much stock

some one tell us what he has ever done
to deserve such prominence? He in
herited a lot of gold mines,and no mat
ter how much he spends, he couidnt
spend it ALL. He is one of the richest
men in the United States by virtue Of
his inherited gold mines, and yet he is
continually abusing wealth. 1t probably
does not make very much difference
what we think of him, but up to date
we have not seen any great evidence
of ability or worth in him. He employs
the brightest men in the world to run
his papers, hence their success. We do
not think he has an aptitude for
anything except to use his fathers
money. Hearst may be nominated for
president, but it will be several weeks
yet efore he lands the nomination. Let
him serve in congress a year and see
waht he amounts to. We will gamble

man Wade of Iowa City, will make

Randolph Hearst. If he were smart
man he would not allow such greenhorn
proceedings TO go on. We do not need
any assistance from him, to run the
Democrat. He may be great and wise
man, but we hold that he could not
write an editorial on any subject that
would be read, if it were not for his
wealth left him by his father. AS Il
matter of fact he never wrote an ar
ticle in his life. When you think you
are reading anything by Hearst. pu!
