"a ROYAL SLAVE"-MARCH 30

An apprcciativc audience Witness
ed the presentation of the play "A
Royal Slave at the Hancock
Opera House last night. "A Royal
Slave is the most romantic drama
that has ever been presented in the
Local Theatre this season and is
without n doubt pleasing one.
Guided by facts of history and yield
ing to the evolving facts of n vivid
imagination and inspired by the
traditions and custom of a civili-
cation which flourished In Mexico,
that land of sunshine and perennial
flowers, four hundred years ago
when Montezuma rcigned in the
dazzling glory, the author has put
on the stage play that Is interest
ing IN these days Of Merry
Widows" aud musical comedies and
all the grille, grille plays. A play
such as "a Royal Slave" is relief
to the Theatre-gOcr and one that is
enjoyed by those witnessing 1t. The
production was all that could be
asked for and all in the company
acquitted themselves creditably. A
rich vein of thrilling romance runs
through the play from the first to
the last act. The noble traits of the
Indian character are admirably re.
vealed by Russell Snoad, as Aguila,
the last Of the Montezumas. Those
deserving special mention in the
play are, Mr.. Snoad, Miss Sargent
and Mr.. Charles Corwin, who was
worthy of all the praise they re-
ceive. Austin (Texas) Statesman.
The above play will be presented
at tho Opera House I'm Pennington
on Friday evening, March 26.

A MATTER FOR LEGISLATION

The decision Of the District of

ing the injunction issued by Judge
Gould In the Buck Stove and Range
Company case changes the aspect
of the contempt case against Com
pers and others, insofar as they are
sentenced for disobeying the modi.
fed portion. 1t may result in over
turning their sentence In contempt.
But 1t will not settle the vital ques-
ton of the right of an irascible
judge decreeing his own punish
ments for what he is pleased to con-
slider contempt. Legislation must
be depended upon for that.--St.

mot GUILTY y

The Standard Oil Company
finally wins out and that famous
500 100000 fine will not have to
be paid The company was con
victed in the United States DIS
trict Court in 1907 on ,462 counts
for demanding and receiving re
bates from the Chicago Il Alton
railroad on shipments OF carload
lots. and Judge kencSaw Mountain
Lands. who presided at the trial,
fixed the penalty at $50, 900, 600.
The company took the case up to
the Appellate Court, where Judge
Grosscup, in an opinion of bitter
invective, reversed the finding OF
the lower court. \ motion to re =
hear the case was denied by Judge
Grosscup, and the Supreme Court
refused to order a review of the
case, so it reverted TO the trial
court.
Judge Lands did not want to
rehear the case--and for this he
cannot be blamed after Judge
Grosscup's bitter TRADE in reyers-
ing his fnding-so the rehearine
took place before Judge Anderson
in Chicago last week, who in
structed the jury to bring in YER
diet of not guilty" Judge An
derson held that as it was a crimi
naLcase all doubt was in favor OF
the defendant, and the prosecution
failed to prove that there was any
fixed published rate Of the railroad
for such shipments. There is ne
question, we understand, that thu
Standard Oil Company demanded
and received a lower rate than com
peting or independent companies
but it escapes conviction on
criminal charge through techni
cality of law-that it was moi
proven that the railroad had any
definitely fixed shipping rate.
With our courts as constituted
we wonder il it would be possible
TO enact law in which they could
not find technical button that
would open a door wide enough
for an oil train to pass through
unscathed.

FIGHTING La TOILETTE.

The country is informed from
Washington that senatorial ring
proposes to put La Toilette out of
politics. II ring work could have
done that La Toilette would be in
his political grave now. He has ut
no time had any friends except the
unprivileged public. Judged by hui
man standards the senatorial de
sire to down him is reasonable
enough; he has half n dozen scna-
torinl scalps mt his own belt: Long,
Ankeny, Kittrcdge, Dryden, etc. II
is not impossible that the Senate
managers may finally get" the
doughty Wisconsin. They can
punish his State for his presence in
the Senate by Withholding "pork, -
such as public buildings and river
improvements, from his constitu-
ents. That, in time, may injure his
popularity in Wisconsin. Then they
can buy up the politicians, as Sena-
tor Stephenson did, and so draw
further support from him. But even
il they drove La Toilette out of the
Senate the thorn would not be out
OF their side. They cannot hope to
drive him of the platform, and
there is where his most effective
work is done. Nebraska State

SPECIAL SESSION OF
THE CIRCUIT COURT
But as Cases for Which it Was Called
Could Proceed Only Under Agree
ment, Little Was Done.

The Circuit Court was in specia
session last Monday and Tuesday
to hear the Smith mandamus case
against the County Court for dram
shop license, the mandamus against
Special Constable Henson of Ran
dOlph township, and the Flat River
disincorporation case; but owing to
n disagreement between cOntending
attorneys nothing was done except
in the special constable case.
The attorneys for the "wets" OBJ
tanned preliminary mandamus
against the County Court requiring
them to issue dramshop license to
Joseph Smith nj Elvins, or to show
cause why they did not do so, and
| 1t was agreed that the County Court
would abide by the decision of
Judge Killian; but when il was
| shown that the Circuit Court had
at its last sitting adjourned to
"Court in course and that there
was no authority to call special
| term To consider mandumuscs and
| issue, of record, final writ, the at
tOrncys for the "drys,n acting for
/ the County Court, refused TO con
| sent to allow the Circuit Court to
amend its record aud issue the writ,
even though Judge Killian minated
and stated that having held the
/ county outside of Pennington "wetn
/ in two former rulings, he would do
So again aud issue the permanent
writ directing the County Court To
/ issue to Smith his license. The
cause therefore went over to the
regular May term.
/ The quo wurranto proceedings
/ against the Mayor and other officers
! Of Flat River, by which it is at
tempted to disiucorporatc that town,
! by agreement between the attorney
for Flat River, d. l.. Rivers, and
the attorneys for the REALTORS, had
been set for Tuesday, but it was al
so continued for the reason That, af-
/ ter Judge Killian had ruled that the
record had to be 50 amended by
agreement as to show the adjourn
ment to that date, Mr.. Rivers re-
fused to agree to this, nOtwithstand-
ing his former agreement by letter
to the setting OF this cause on Tues
day. This case will result ia very
stubborn contest and will involve
many interesting matters of both
fact and law. with these cases,
together with the regular docket,
the May term will prove to be of
the usual length and Importance.
The mandamus against Fred Hen
son, Special Constable for Lead
wood, and his deputy, VIM. Man
son, was by agreement taken up
and argued. This case involved the
constitutional construction of sec
ton SSl II. $. 1899 and the validity
of the order of the County Court, ms
to whether the special Constable
had jurisdiction throughout Ran
dolph township or just Leadwood:
The court sustained the constitu-
tionality of section SSl, but in
timated that the order of the County
Court was null and void for the
reason that it did not show the pro-
per jurisdlctional facts.
