ONE of the old corporation guard
Christy of Clay county-takes it upon
himself to express the opinion and senti-
ment of the Fifth district upon the
question of the primary. Of course it
is against the primary system. But
The TRIBUNE doesn't recall the name
just now of any politician of the Chris
ty type who does favor the primary
system to the caucu and convention as
manipulated by the gang. And as the
primary system becomes more familiar
to the people and is amended to meet
conditions prevailing, they will like it
the better, But the politicians of a
certain type a be expected to
be enamoured of it, or of anything tend
ing to place directly with the people
the duty of nominating and electing
candidates to office.

Call--RepubIican State Convention, March
II, 1908.

Pursuant to the call of the National
committee issued December 7, 1907, the
Republican electors Of the state of Ne
braskn are hereby called to meet in con
v%ention in the city of Omaha on Thurs
day, March II, 1908, at two O'clock in
the afternoon, for the purpose of select
ing four delegates at large and four al
ternates TO the Republican National
convention to be held in the city of
CT icago, June 16, 1908, for the nvmina-
ton of candidates for president and vice
president of the United States.
The basis of representation of the sew
eral counties in said state convention,
shall be the vote cast for Honorable II.

general election held for November s,
1904. giving one delegate for each one
hundred fifty votes and the major frac

least one delegate. Said apportionment
entities the several counties to the fol-
lowing representation in the said con-
vention:

IT is amusing TO read the options and
Vows expressed by the, press on the
question of selecting delegates to the
Republican national conTentica from
Nebraska. But the %corceusus favors
the selection of other delegates than
those now holding high official positions
in the state, in which TIE TRIBUNE
heartily Not that holding of
EcIal position is a bar to becoming a
delegate, but the rather that holding
such official position should not be used
as a leverage TO ecure the coveted place
the delegation. The average office
holder in Nebraska is in no wise super
ior to the average Of the rank and file of
Nebraska Republicans-hence the plea
of sending strong men and able does not
in any wise preclude the naming of non-
holding men.

Attention is called to the method pro-
vided for by the resolution Of the state

THE Missouri supreme court
TODAY, in the opinion by Judge
Burgess, decided that the law
requiring that free return trans
portation be given to shippers
with each carload of live stock
by the railroads of this state is
unconstitutional on the ground
that it is a discrimination in rates
against other shippers and in
violation of the fourteenth amend
ment to the federal constitution
in that it takes property without
due process of law. The case
was appealed to the supreme
court from Linn county, where
the board of railroad commits
sioners brought suit against the
Burlington road. The lower
court sustained the commission
ers' contention and the railroad
company appealed. The SUI
preme court overruled the de-
cision of the lower court and the
proceedings are ordered dismis-'
Sed.

THE constitutionality Of the

THE constitutionality OF the
act of congress of June /, 1898,
prohibiting railroad companies
engaged in interstate commerce
from discriminating against the
members Of labor organizations in
the matter Of employment was
called into question by the case
of William Adair VS.. the United
States, which was decided by the
supreme court of the United
States today favorable to Adair.
The opinion was by Justice Har-
Ian, and held the law to be re-
pugnant to the constitution.
The court held hat Adair, as
master mechanic of the Louis
vile & Nashville railroad, had
the right to discharge an en-
ploye because he was a member
of a labor organization just as it
is the employees right to quit such
employment because of his mem
bership in such organization.
Such a course, the decision added,
might be unwise, but, regarded
as a mere matter of right, there
could be no doubt. Congress
could not, under the constitution,
authorize a violation of contract
under the guise of protecting in
terState commerce.
