FORAKER CHAMPIONS THE Law
GREAT SPEECH on GOVERNMENT
by INJUNCTION" ISSUE.

by MyrOn T. Hcrrick ana MARK Hanna.
CH1LLIcoTHE, Ohio, Sept. i0-The ancient
capital of the Buckeye State threw its
doors wide open to greet the Republican
hosts to-day. "A crowd estimated at 5000
attended the formal opening OF the Republi-
can campaign.
There was . big parade at o'clock and
as soon as it ended the speaking began In
the city park, which had been equipped
with stands and seats, Seats on the lawn
were provided for the woman in the audi
ence Temporary Chairman Albert Doug
lass Of Chillicothe, who had to stand aside
as an aspirant for Governorship honors in
favor of Herrick, introduced as the perma-
nent chairman Of the meeting Gov. Nash.
Senator Foraker made the keynote speech
senator Foraker's Speech.
Senator Foraker's speech was chiefly
notable for its discussion OF the question OF
government byinjunotion, raised IN the
Ohio Democratic platform. His remarks
on this subject follow:
The third special denunciation OF the Demo-
cratic platform 10 which have called atten-
ton is Of what it terms government by In
junction.
This phrase expresses very dangerous
thought.
All the judicial power OF our Government
Is vested by the Constitution in our Supreme
Court and such inferior courts as Congress
shall from time to time ordain and establish.
The Constitution thus Imposes upon Con-
uress the duty of providing for the exercise
by suitable tribunals OF oil the judicial power
that belongs to the Government. For Con-
Rress In the distribution OF Judicial power
to fail or refuse to invest some court. some
where. with the equitable power Of injunc-
ton. would be to violate tho Constitution
and commit an act OF revolution. For Con-
Rress to invest certain courts with that
power. as has been done. and then divest
them of il, as now proposed. without al the
same time investing some other court with
such power would be equally violation OF
the Constitution and an act OF revolution.
But aside from all this as "A mere matter
OF policy. the proposition is the very essence
Of unwisiom,
COURTS THE REpuoR or THE POOR
Tn. courts of our country have ever been
the conservative and preventative force IN
our Government They are the one DEPART
ment unmoved by the exctements or and the
preudices of. the passing hour No man Is SO
humble but that II he imagInes himself az
grieved no matter by whom ne does not
know that in and through the courts his
,vronge NAV he redressed and who does not
have in that fact an ever present assurance
~ tho pro,ection of Government for his life
liberty and property
There have no doubt been miscarriages Of
Justice in the past, and there no doubt. will
be miscarrages Of justice In the future. Tor
nothing that Is dependent upon human
agency can be at all times perfect In It's opera
tion Rut taken ns whole our Judges
have ALWAYS met the lust expectations Of our
people and in their Independence their honor
sn,i their fearlessness in the discharge of their
duties wa have ever found a comforting
puaran,ee of the permap ency Of our institu-
fiona
No greater calamity could befall us than the
.ar;o,,s tmnairmant Of the usefulness OF this
denartment of our Government TO deprive
our courts of any part OF their rightfnl juris-
die,ion would be al least step in that direc-
finn Only baneful results could follow
