Bourne Still Busy.

Senator Bourne of Oregon is not to
be eliminated, simply because his lit
tie campaign in behalf Of a second
elective term" did not meet with en-
tire success. Senator Bourne was
cast down for a while, but only for a
while. He is once more resilient.
The Senator from the State of
Washington wants it clearly under
stood that, while he favored the re
nomination of President Roosevelt,
he accepts the result of the conven-
ton, but he calls on Mr.. Taft TO re-
pudiate the doctrine that any Presi-
dent may select his successor for
nomination. Senator Bourne seems
to be as thoroughly wrought up on
that point as he was over his move
ment in behalf of a second elective
term"
However, IL is more than possible
that Senator Bourne will recover, even
though Candidate Taft should fail in
his letter of acceptance to promise that
he will not try to name his successor.
Senator Bourne says he anchors his
faith to the intelligent patriotism Of
the American electorate. If he viii
anchor far enough off shore 20 get the
benefit of cooling breczes, he will feel
better ere the real campaign begins.

mother. has been stopping at a farm

The mother placed the child In the
shade OF a tree while she went TO the
house for a magazine. The baby is two
and one-half years Of age. Mrs. Sher-
man left her fan with the bsby and
this probably saved its life When the
mother returned she was Mortified to see
a rattlesnake near her baby.
The child was tapping IL on its head
with a fan, a palm leaf. and crying
peek-a-bOO. It was laughing gleefully
AT the antics Of the snake, which would

girl struck it. Mrs sherman tainted.
Two men ran to her assistance and
while one grabbed the youngster the

The Injunction Line of Battle.

Mr. Gompers is out for Bryan. The
head of the American Federation of
Labor attended both conventions and
centered his attention on the injunction
planks of the two platforms. By fair
inference, therefore, his Endorsement Is
equivalent TO declaration that the in
junction plank of the Democratic party
is generally satisfactory to him.
The effect can only be to focus the
campaign more sharply on this issue.
Mr.. Taft believes in injunctions, be-
lieves in labor unions, and is satisfied
that the legal process indicated has
been so much abused that it needs to
be more closely guarded. Mr.. Bryan
believes in injunctions, reveres the
courts, and is most unjustly treated by
those who would put him in an attitude
Of attack upon the courts.
Yet to the public sight these two will
seem to fight out this question sta
toned fatty on opposite sides. The
Republican will be made to stand on
the side of the present practice of
granting injunctions as result of one
Etasd pleadings before a single magis-
eFate. The Democrat will be made to
stand on the side of preventing the
courts from estopping the destruction
of property by legal process preceding
the commission of any offense.
1t is incredible that the American
people, conservative by nature and
loath to interfere with the courts, will
vote to abolish the writ of Injunction.
1t is almost inconceivable that they
will cripple it by opening opportunity
to delay punishment for the violation
of it by requiring trials for contempt
by Jury What they are more likely to
do is to adopt this suggestion:
"Under the original Federal Judiciary
, act, it was not possible for the Federal
courts to issue an. injunction without
notice. There had to be notice. and. of
course, a hearing. l think it would be
entirely right in this class of cases to
amend the law and provide that no
temporary restraining order should is
sue at all until after notice and hear
ing. Then the court could be advised
by both sides with reference to the ex-
act situation, and the danger of issu-
ing a writ too broad or of issuing a
writ without good ground would gen
orally be avoided"
1t Is significant that these words
are from an address on. Labor and
Capital" delivered by Mr.. Taft before
the Cooper Institute in New York city,
January 10, 1908.

ligee shirts.
In the Slide-Kelly-slide days there
might have been good many men
with their coats off. But criss-crossed
suspenders, hickory shirts, unsightly
bosoms, like chalked pie-plates, wrin-
kled, would take the beauty out of a
Swiss landscape, not to speak of an
American ball park. Nowadays, Mere
