Platforms usually do not count vastly in
our elections, for the voters incline to be-
lieve that in practice the safest platform is
the man, and what they know of his ability,
character, and opinions. The Democrats
scored legitimate advantage, nevertheless.
in making their injunction plank more
definite than that of the Republicans. That
judge should try the question Of whether
his own order has been treated with con-
tempt is against all fairness and openness of
mind Such question should obviously
come before another Judge. That is the
first point. Then on the demand for jury
trial before punishment: that demand is in
accord with the deepest principles OF our
law. The opposite practise means that the
munity. Il is said that juries viii not con-
vict in the class of cases which haYe caused
the present protest. If they will not the
defendants should not be punished. Punish
ments not backed by public opinion have
no place in democracy. RICHARD OLNEY
is an honest man and very able lawyer,
but he is by temperament an aristocrat, and
the tendency which he started in the Debs
case, under Mr.. CLEVELAND, is opposed
entirely to she democratic faith. The foun-
ders Of our Government gave TO the courts
great powers, among others the power to
supervise legislation, thus forcing the peo-
pie and the Legislature to think carefully
before they abandon the Constitution. The
founders in this were wise, and should be
upheld, and it is for that reason that all
judges should be appointed, and hold their
Office during good behavior. IT is very
different matter, however, for the courts to
seize powers clearly not given to them,
which they are doing when they endeavor
10 usurp the duties Of State governors and
Of she police.

How to Check a NossbIeed.

When the nose is bleeding, never
hold it over a basin or hold the head
down in any way. This only causes
further rush OF blood to the broken
tissues in the nose. The head should
be held up and back, the flow being
caught IN handlSerehiefs or cloths.
One Of the most effective and simple
means Of checking a nosebleed is to
press on the upper lip. Near the I'M
dersurface Of the lip runs the artery
that supplies the interior nasal pas
sagas where the ruptures occur. If
this is pressed. the flow of blood is
mechanically checked, thus allowing
the blood around the broken tissues
to CONCEAL and seal up the opening
# merely pressing the finger does not
succeed, place d wad Of paper ander
the lip and fold the lip over It. hold
ing It down tight Again, Il this does
not succeed and drug store IS near,
get some adrenalin, satuRate b piece of
cotton with it and apply to the interior
of the nose from where the blood
flows.

In planting q rose garden the soil can
scarcely be TOO rich. There should be
plenty of well rotted manure or fer
tilizer, but avoid setting cut the plants
directly in the manure, as It scorches
the roots. The NEST effective rose gar
den is not composed Of too large q
number Of varieties, but OF larger
masses carefully selected for harmony
and 50 arranged that there viii be
some large mass III bloom constantly
throughout the summer and autumn.
Not profusion 50 much as rich and rare
effects should be the ain. BY careful
selection and tasteful Arrangement a
variety of beautiful com binati0ns can
be displayed. giving variety and new
charm for each successive month and
almost for each successive day.
