A JUDICIAL

A serious question of federal and
state authority arises in North Caro-
lima by the summary and even arbi-
trary action of a federal Judge with
out tact or discretion. The State has
a statute providing for a uniform rate
of two and one-half cents a mile on
the railroads. Whether this law be
constitutional or not it is state law.
The Southern Railway Company DELHI
erately violated it by selling tickets at
a higher rate, and a State judge fined
the company 100000 and fined the ticket
agent. The eompany's lawyers ap-
pealed to the Federal District Court
and the judge of that court proceeded
at once to put an injunction on the
state n ~paralyze it's authority to
deal with offenses against the State
laws.
The judgment of an inferior federal
cour is no more conclusive than
is thai of a State court in a case re-
viewable By the United States District
Court. n Governor Glenn. Of North
Carolina, wen says that the rights of
the State are irnperilled il a federal

A R HOUSE.

= The setting up at Sea Girt of the
New Jersey State building of the st.
Louis Worlds Fair as a summer head
quarters for the State executive was a
Portable in the summer as well for
State officers as for visitors. AT Sea
Grit the Governor is enabled to do a
great deal of official work and to re-
ceive many visitors. He Is brought in
personal ontac with the people and
in unconventional ways, n is enabled
to better understand public sentiment
and to divine the public needs.
New Jersey has no gubernatorial resi-
dence at the State capital. The Governor
receives $4,000 a year and shifts for
himself. Franklin Murphy was the only
Governor that set up a regular estab-
lishment at Trenton. and he favored
the erection of a Governors house for
executives who do not possess his large
means. Governor Stokes lives modest
ly at the State capital, but en~tertains
both there and at Sea Grit in a way to
eat up his official salary. 1t would be
a thrifty Governor. indeed, who could
save from his salary n conform to
any extent to the customs of his office.
The executive residence at Sea Girt,
which is as much also the Governors
the State military and naval forces. is
perhaps a step towards carrying out
the long-mooted idea of a house for the
Governor at the State capital.

THE SPOOL OF R E

The big cotton thread trust has a
reckoning to make with Uncle Sam.
The trust has advanced the price of a
spool of cotton from four cents to six
and seven cents and proposes to go ns
high as ten cents. The Department of
Justice at Washington is engaged in a
preliminary inquiry into the affairs IF
The American Thread Company. with a
view to legal proceedings against it.
Thread-making is one of the old-pro-
tected industries of America. Under
the Mckinley law of 1890 the duty on
cotton thread wal seven cents for every
dozen spools. Under the Gorman-Wil-
son law of 1894 the duty vas reduced
TO FIVE and a half cents a dozen. Under
the Dingley tariff of 1897. now in force,
the duty was advanced to six cents a
dozen on cotton thread containing not
more than one hundred yards to a
spool. An additional six cents per
dozen spools is levied on every one
hundred yards thereof in excess of one
hundred yards.
Raw cotton has steadily increased
In price from eight to thirteen
cents per pound in ten years. but in the
last ten years there nave been impor-
tant economies in manufacturing, in
Guiding the reduction of expenses of
plant and operation by trust combina-
ton. Immense fortunes have been
made in cotton thread manufacture,
but as long as the people got reason

Hoboken, too. is enioined by the
chancery Court from interfering with
the Hudson and Manhattan Railroad
Company in its work of constructing a
tunnel under Hudson place, Hoboken.
This is one Of the McAdoo companies,
and Hoboken sought to compel conces-
sions to the city similar to those de-
manded by Jersey City. The fact>should
be impressed on the minds of Jersey
City and Hoboken officials that the
Hudson tunnels are demanded by the
necessities Of other communities more
remote from the Hudson. II transpor-
tation between the two cities and Nam
haitian was considered only, no tunnels
would be built.

rhe rest Of Goodness.

Ripley Hitchcock, the critic, said OF
criticism at the Century Club IN Ne"
York:
Much of our criticism seems crude
because 1t takes the wrong point OF
view. It asks itself whether or no the
work before it will be popular. 1t
should only ask itself whether the work
is good.
'dThese crude critics, with their wrong
criterion, remind me of an old man
in a New Hampshire tavern.
Two tourists entered this tavern one
afternoon and asked for a bottle of
whiskey to take with them on a fish,
excursion in the 'Sunapee waters. $
'The whiskey was very cheap. the
tourists before accepting 1t, debated
such a low-priced brand could
be good. =

man rose from a bench in the sun and

judge can interfere with and stop the
administration of the criminal law Of
the State. In such a case the State
is nothing more than a province, with
no rights that anybody is bound to re-
spect." Government by injunction
means usurpation of legislative and ex-
~ecutive powers by the courts. There
has been too much of that in ate years.
The will or caprice of one mar invest
ed with the judicial function should
never be permitted to override the SOW
ereign power of a State. Only the
United States Supreme Court by a final
decision should set aside a State law
or suspend its operation on the ground

SHOULD LOOK BEFORE We LEAP.

The idea of a great storage reservoir
protection of the lower river valley
from food and the conservation of the
water supply. There is a variation in
the flow of a stream. The normal daily
flow at Little Falls is "a, $3.50. 900 gallons,
and hold the storm waters as much as
515, 000,0 900 gallons daily can be had at
Little Falls. Two reservoir plans are
proposed. One is by the Geological
Survey for q reservoir at Little Falls
with a daily supply of S06, 900, 900 gallons
and at a cost of $1,000. 900. The other
plan is by the Flood Commission for a
reservoir at Mountain View. There are
wi propositions by this commission
one for a dam at an elevation OF 20S
feet. for flood protection only, and to
cost So. S5O, 900. The other is for a higher
dam. to furnish 200, 900, 900 gallons daily
for potable purposes and 10000, 900 gall
Ions to the river flow. the cost to be
$7.437,624. The Survey plan, the work of
Engineer vermeule, calls for a lake of
1922 acres at food height, and the
Flood Commission plan is for a lake at
flood height of 1920 acres.
The Potable Water Commission ia
vored the Vermeule plan, but the new
State Water Commission can adopt
either plan. Both plans involve ex-
~traordinary changes. The Little Falls
plan creates a lake nearly twenty miles
long, with a maximum width Of four
miles, from Pompton Village to Chat
ham. The villages of Pompton Plains.
Pompton and Pompton Lakes will be
destroyed, as well as settlements and
farms and highways. Railroads must
be relocated, the Morris canal changed,
and the pipe lines of the Newark and
Jersey City aqueduct systems will be
buried under water If not extensively
relocated. Two cemeteries will be in
the basin of the lake.
BY the larger plan of the Flood Com
mission it would be necessary to relo-
cate the Newark pipe line, at a cost of
SILL 900, to make a loop eight miles
long. Another item of cost would be
$127, 22s to relocate the Morris canal by
building a new section for four miles.
This item is cleverly used in the Flood
Commission report as an argument In
favor of abandonment of the canal to
the ~lessees. The hand of the East Jer-
sey Water Company is visible in sew
eral places in this report. Some idea
can be obtained from'the foregoing of
the great Importance of the powers OF
the State Water Commission under the
law that the Legislature is asked to
amend TO provide better safeguards for
the public rights. In the matter alone
of the creation of a great lake in the
upper Passaic valley we should look
before we leap.

amounted to SIG, 900. 900 and of meat

GERMAN SYMPATHY WITH AMER
ICA.

One outcome of the reports in
Europe of possible trouble between the
United States and Japan has been the
exhibition in Germany of an increased
sentiment of friendship for the United
States. A nation is not to be judged
by the talk of it's principal newspapers
lean nation is to be judged by the acts
of a few hoodlums in San Francisco.
whose population have such close kin
ship with ours. If a vainglorious Ger
mar editor slurs us, he does not speak
for the German people or command
their approval, and his conceit can be
matched by detractions Of Germany by
some American editor who does not ex-
press American sentiment. Our great
Civil War was a supreme test of 0ef-
man sympathy, and the American peo-
pie does not forget its warm manifes-
tations. The correspondence of the
State Department at Washington under
Secretary Seward bears eloquent wit
ness to that sympathy, which led SO
many thousands of Germantown men
to enlist in the Union army.
When the Civil Wa was raging there
was a ready market in Germany for
our bonds, and it is a fact that they
were quoted in Berlin at higher rates
than in New York. When the war was
over, Germany held more than $780,
600, 900 of our bonds and no Confederate
bonds. From Germany came, innumer-
able packages containing necessaries
for our soldiers, with many thousands
of pounds of linen and lint for the
wounded. When the Civil War was
over, the full membership of the Prus-
sian House of Deputies united in an
address to the American Minister, Mr..
Judd, and some words of that address
are well worth quoting here. They
should never be forgotten:
Living among us, you are a witness
of the heartfelt sympathy which this
people have ever preserved for the peo-
pie of the United States during this
long and severe conflict. You are aware
that Germany has looked with pride
and joy on the thousands of her sons
who in this struggle have placed them
selves on the side of law and right.
You have seen with what joy the vic
tories of the Union have been hailed
and how confident our faith in the final
triumph OF the great cause of the res
toration of the Union in all its great
ness has ever been, even in the midst
of adversely"
