 The railroads bound to keep

SuuCCLD AOWu VII Its
 The railroads bound to- keep their roadbeds in first class con- dition, and a writ of mandamus will make them do it, or give up the franchise they hold by gift from the people.
 Please do not miss any of the rare and tender and succulent bits of this menu a la Fourth of July, which our very honorable supreme court has prepared for our souls feasting. Here is an- other:
 "The road, once constructed, is, instanter, and by mere force of the grant and law, embodied in the governmental agencies ot the state and dedicated to public use. All and singular it's cars, engines, rights of way and pro- perty of every description, real, personal and mixed, are but a trust fund for the political power, like the functions of a political office. The judicia-personage, the corporation, created by the sovereign power expressly for this sole purpose and for no other, is in the most strict. tech nical and qualified sense, but it's trustees. This is the primary and sole legal, political motive for it's creation. The identical interest and profits of individuals are acciden s, not in theory and practice. Every farthing of it's tolls is first to be devoted to pay ing the public tax, and to the continuance of the road, it's am- pie equipment and regular opera tion as the interests of the com- munity, not those of the share holders, demand.
 To tell these overlords of rails and road beds, that these patent creatures they have been jam ming into decaying and filthy cars; these docile human beings they have been hurling to death through rotten bridges; are their masters with rights superior to the lucre laden magnates of waterlogged stocks, is new talk that will require a readjustment of my attic furniture before 1 can find room to permanently stow it.
 It's strange, but 1 like it.
 And to think that the words are quoted. Which means that they have been used before.
 We'll, that proves how much my immense lack of information has cost me.
 That such words $ these were . ever used, except in political party platforms, was never E dreamed oI n my philosophy iIoratio.

Maybe your breakfast didn't agree with you this morning.
 Forget it!
 Ten to one, that note is coming due next week.
 Don't worry!
 Perhaps you got letter from the man who owes you, putting off settling day for another month.
 Cheer up.
 Perchance you are cast down because cotton won't go up.
 Cut 1t out!
 In word, throw dull care to the winds, side-step your trou- bles, put the lid on your grouch, and come with me to the upper realms of unrestrained joy.
 For I have a message for you that will make a come to my party" card look like a summons for jury duty.
 Now, Listen, my children and you shall hear" the mid night ride of Paul Revere
 But trumpet call to liberty, louder and clearer than the bold est blown by Wallace, among Scotland's crags, and sweeter than the tunefulest lay ever play ed on fairest planes by Apo!o in her merriest mood.
 The supreme court of Florida has declared that the right of the people of Florida to safe and prompt transportation of all con- modities offered to railroads, is superior to the right or railroads to declare dividends.
 So fair a picture as this de- serves to be viewed on all sides.
 Lets look at it again.
 In the opinion handed down last week, in the A. C. L. man. damas case, the supreme court said:
 No matter that a dividend is never paid, that the private in- vestment is sunk and worthless, that the interest upon its bonds is not met. and that all it; credi- tors go unpaid, every dollar of it's earnings must nevertheless be applied to keep up it's maximum efficiency, as required by the political power in the law which created 1t to neglect of the small est of these duties in which the community is interested will be enforced by the public writ of mandamus."
 And in order that there should be no lingering doubt to lay it's bony hand on the outward mani festatlon of the eXuberance of the joy that fills our souls to bursting, the honorable court al- so said:
 The service rendered by common carrier directly and vii tally affects the public. To have such service properly rendered is beneficial right which the pub- lie is entitled to enjoy. If the service is not properly rendered 1t causes loss and inconvenience to the public, and perhaps en- dangers the lives and property of all those to whom it is extended, therefore, 1t is fundamental duty of the state to rigidly re- quire proper rendering of this useful public service. ?
 Take that into the far corner of your inner consciousness. let it soak in, and then take it out and hold it in your hand and

NUMBER 3

The decision Of the supreme court
to the effect that common councils are
required to revoke the licenses of sa-
loonkeepers who violate city ordinances
has wide significance for common
councils as well as for saloonkeepers
throughout the state. The case, which
was carried up from the circuit court
of Dane county, is the first of its kind
to be decided and the decision opens the
the way for good lot of litigation UNI
less common councils are disposed to
enforce the law to the letter. In the
meantime it will be wise thing for sa-
loonkeepers to see that they are acting
within the pale Of the law. The supreme
court decision furnishes powerful le-
yer to be used against offenders.

sheriff Terrill and one or two constables
were summoned by telephone to come

arrested and were fined in justice court
on Monday $40 each and costs.
