JUDGE OVERS POP.

When this anarchy in Colorado first
began there was one populist judge in
that state and he had the courage to
do his duty and maintain the dignity
of the bench. Some miners were
driven cut of town in his district.
He Immediately went there, called q
special session of the court, and when
the prosecuting attorney would not do
his duty, the judge appointed a new
one. Then he called special grand
jury. a large number of the Business
Mems Alliance were indicted and
bound over to the next term Of court.
There have been no reports of disor-
der in that part of the state since.
The name of that judge was Overs.
He is a populist. He is the only
Judge in the state who maintained or
der in the mining region. The peo-
pie of Colorado ought to elect him
governor.

TRAJTOROUs JUDGES

Lincoln republican expressed
great surprise at the vigorous Ian
guage used in The Independent con-
corning the supreme court of Colorado
and wondered how the editor dared TO
do it. The Independent will always
dare" to tell the truth. 1t would tell
it about an anarchistic supreme court
just as readily as it would about a
burglar 1t repeats that the members
OF the supreme court of Colorado are
the most dangerous anarchists that
ever trod American soil. The Mil
waukee News says:
Meyer was confined in the bull
pen because he was president of the
union, and his Imprisonment was ex-
pected to dishearten the strikers and
enable the mine owners to break the
strike. The Colorado supreme court
upheld the governor in a decision That
is without parallel in England or the
United States, the court holding that
the governor may exercise absolute
powers at his discretion, and that his
acts are not renewable by the courts.
There are just two things, and no
others, that can result from that de-
cision II it is not reversed 1t either
establishes military despotism or an
archy. 1t is one or the other. The
members of that court ought to be
tried for treason. The lower courts of
the state should not be bound by 1t
any more than if the supreme court
had issued an order that every man
in the state should Immediately en-
list in the militia, or arm himself and
start out to shoot and burn at his own
pleasure That decision abolishes the
constitutional powers of the district
judges. aud the district judges should
repudiate it--pay no attention TO ii
any more than II an order had been
issued that the judges should hold
court dressed only In breech cloths.
Putting all power into the hands OF
the governor and declaring his acts
"incontroyertible." the governor may
continually perpetuate himself in Of
fee He may refuse TO Issue an cleo
ton proclamation and stop govern
ment altogether except as he orders.

A DENIAL OF JUSTICE.

The highest judicial authority of
the German empire is vested in the
reichsgericht, federal supreme court
established pursuant to the law of
April II. 1877, as one of the institu-
tions resulting from the creation of
the new empire, or confederation OF
states. after the Franco-Prussian war
OF 1901. The accumulation OF bus
mess In the court Is such that appeals

HIGH AND Low TARIFFS.

Sir Wilfred Laurier, the Canadian
premier, made a speech the other day
which is very interesting reading on
this side of the line. The liberals are
In power over there and they are for
low tariffs. The conservatives are out
of power and they want to get in on a
high tariff proposition. In answering
the conservatives and their Dingley
tariff ideas the other day the premier
INDUCED in some historical perspec-
tive which cannot fail to interest
American high tariff votaries. He be-
gan by calling attention to the fact
that in 1896 there were general cleo
tons in both Canada and the United
States, and that, as result, the tariff
in each country was revised, although
on different principles. In Canada
low-tariff party came into power and
leveled the tariff down; in the United
States a high tariff party came into
power and leveled the tariff up. Near
ly eight years have passed and the
tariff in Canada is still down. while
in the United States it is still up-so
far up, indeed, that the next REVISION
may have to take place in a balloon.
What have been the results? Sir Will
frid Laurier said: I'm Canada you
have hope, abundance, contentment.

have. detection and almost despair

There was never an act Of legislation
that was followed by such widespread
disaster, ruin and suffering as has
finally resulted from the Dingley tar
iff. 1t was the father and mother OF
the promoting schemes which re-
suited in the formation of all the big
trusts that today threaten the stabil-
ity of the government. At first there
was a remarkable boom and business
imitation. The Independent constant
ly warned the people that it was false
and fictitious and not based on solid
economic grounds. But the people
went wild. They would not listen to
reason They were imbued with the
idea that they could all get rich by
legislation and the granting OF special
privileges. But look at the results
now.
The steel trust was formed under
cover of the tremendous duties on
steel, and the people at one time
thought that it would capture the
whole iron and steel industry of the
world. But now it is no longer dam
gerous competitor and is struggling
for it's own existence, and has had to
discharge thousands of it's operators.
Ihe railways, which at one time had
not sufficient rolling stock to carry
their traffic, are discharging their OPP
orators by the thousands. Within the
last few months the Pennsylvania
railway company--the largest in the
States-has discharged no less than
IL 900 of its operators, and the New
York Herald of Is days ago published
statement which has not been con-
tradicted, that the total number of
men discharged by the railway COM
panies since last April is no less than
$4,000.
That is what the Dingley tariff has
done and today we see the favored few
calling loudly to the people whom
them have robbed of millions to stand
pat" When they say to the victims of
this sort of legislation, st is making
you rich,' the toiler with patches on
his pants answers back most cheer

Bright Young Man Who Used

The Journal has often remarked
that young man who knows the art

the past two weeks in Salem by the
Allen & ertRaymaker Co. Their

here for two weeks, during which time
he used printers ink freely, and in
other ways demonstrated his ability
as salesman by means of publicity.

80 pianos during his short stay, and
says he considers this the most sue.
