In deciding that the Tustin pura
food law, passed at recent session
of the legislature, is unconstitutional
because it was not properly enacted.
Judge Bell, Of Blair County, has
struck severe and serious blow to
the work of the State pure food com
mission. The BLAIR County .urist
has found that the pure food law is
null and void because i'm passing it
the legislature failed to comply with
certain technicalities of the funda-
mental law, this means that the act
is good one, but was wrongly en-
Eacted.
If the superior court, to which the
| matter will be appealed, shall affirm
the finding of the Blair county
court the people of this state will be
previously disappointed. The pure
food law was demanded because

adulterated food stuflS manufactured
in other states. Some OF the dealers
were willing to cease disposing of
impure food stufls, but others were
willing to endanger the lives of the
people by selling adulterated food.
One of these took the matter to the
Blair county court with the result
above noted.
I. l.. Lewis, the new president of
the United Mine Workers of Amer
lea, though in Office a few weeks, is
already demonstrating that he is a
man of sound sense. TO an asst NIB
lage of some 5000 men at Tamaqua,
Pa, on Sunday, declared that there
was no room in the miners orgaDiZ-
alton for politics. This is sufficient
notice from one of the strongest
branches of the American FEEDER
ations of labor that Samuel Gompcr's
impudent scheme to deliver the la
Dor vote to Bryan and Kern is doom
ed to failure.
President Lewis is no mere tyro in
the labor union movement, nor can
| it be said that he is unfamiliar with
the ways of politics. He has moth
ing to learn from Mr.. Gompers
about either side of. the question, and
his advice, therefore, is cei itainly
worth the careful attention of the
tens of thousands of men wh( be-
long to his organization. g each
mine worker" said Mr.. II wis,
should vote according to the die
tates of his own conscience"-Which
is quite different thing from vOt-
ing according to the dictatOin of
of Mr.. Gompers and Mr.. Bryan.
The former is all that any man has
right to ask, and when q profession
al seeker after the presidency, I'M
dertakes to add tricks with orga-
nized labor upon any other basis he
is taking the shortest possible cut
to the disintegration of labor unions.
1t has never yet been possible TO
secure permanent advantage to la
Dor organization by mixing it up
with politics, and the experiment is
not likely to succeed in this year of
grace.

j. S. COOLEY IS INDICATED
Comes Clear of the Charge
Preferred Against Him by
n Client.

Judge" Julius s. Cooley was indicated
before Judge Sears of the district court
Friday morning and came clear of the
charge preferred against him by a colored
client named Landing E. jackson. This
dispels the cloud handing over the right OF
Cooley to continue his legal practice and
puts to rest the proposed disbarment pro-
ceedings.
Mr.. Cooley quarreled. with the pros
pective client, Landing E. Jackson. some
months ago, and as a result Jackson.
brought up to be tried, accused the lawyer
OF having offered to use his influence to
get him a light sentence. The charge was
ordered Investigated and testimony from
various sources was secured which proved
that Cooley had asked a fee of 800 for his
professional services, which he failed to
get, but not that he had offered to in
fuence the bench. The statement of
Jackson was the only foundation for that
suspicion and it was dismissed as not
established.
In giving his opinion Judge Sears re-
marked that the 500 asked was. OF course.
not an exorbitant fee when honestly asked.
and he found grounds for no reproof except
a warning that all business between at
torney and client should be so open and
above board that no misunderstanding
could possibly result.
