COURTS MAKING LAWS,

| The Biographical notices that con-
| tinue TO appear concerning the late
| chief Justice Fuller are significant in
several ways. one OF these "a that po-
| utical independence, and even poliu-
| cal mistakes. II honestly made, do not
| necessarily entail that oblivion TO pub
lie usefulness which Is the belief and
stock argument Of professional poll
! tlcians
II was President cleveland who nom
mated Mr.. Fuller TO the supreme bench
the first nomination TO that position
made by Democratic president since
the Clvll war; and such strong Re-
pubilcaus as Senators Edmunds and
sherman were bitterly opposed to the
senate's confirming this nomination.
They denounced Fuller as a copper
head" because he had been a delegate
to the Democratic convention that had
nominated Mcclellan for president and
had declared the war a failure. New
erthejess the Senate-nine Republic
cans finally voting with the Democrats
finally gave the necessary assent by
two-thirds vote and Mr. Fuller, not
previously well known. at length came
TO be described as the most beloved
OF all the country's chief Justices
Under this chief justice the supreme
court has come to exercise sort Of
economic function upon the country's
business BY reason OF his being a
strict constructionist." Chief Justice
Fuller was the controlling factor In
deciding that the income tax was not
constitutional, and that the Sherman
antitrust law does not apply to manu-
featuring corporations. II was these
especially, that the law was meant to
curb; and By the decision of the court
they were removed from it's operation
as not being In restraint OF Interstate
trade. inasmuch as manufacturing Is
usually done within the boundaries OF
a single state, and IL not in itself com
merce."
Both these decisions were unpOpu-
lar. and both show that the court, in
declaring what j. and what Is not law,
to some extent makes the lava con-
dition which is quite generally feared
and deprecated by American writer's
on political science. Some say that
this condition represents a tendency
which If not arrested. VIII throw the
whole legislative power OF the nation
into the hands OF the judiciary. and
make Of Congress a revising rather
than a legislative body.
That this condition represents a real
evil can not be denied; yet II is en-
evltable where so much legislation is
enacted; and We believe that the null
tpllcity Of laws is largely to be blamed
for the activity Of the courts in law
making For the laws must be applied;
and II, I'm applying them they are
found TO clash with the fundamental
law OF the land, either the statute or
the Constitution must be rendered in
operative or all would be chaos Yet
It does seem strange that II is so diff
hcult to frame laws that are in har-
mony with the Constitution.

In the language OF an old proverh.
"the Lord out of evil some good still
takes; and 1t appears that the mental
collapse OF Jeffrles. which Is now ac-
copied as the prime reason for the OK
champion pugilist's poor showing, is
not without its lessons.
The former champion was in good
physical condtlon-strong and In per
feet trim. But he had been out of the
ring for six years. and had no natural
desire for renewal Of the brutal game,
especially with a negro for his oppo-
nent. He went into the contest I'M
willingly and with the feeling Of an
enormous respt visibility upon him
mat namely, Of defending the honor
of tho white race An accurate ac-
count, at length amply verified by the
observation of others. Is that Jeffries
began to get irritable and sulky the
day before the fight; he tried playing
cards, but could not keep his mind on
the game; he wouldn't converse; he
didn't wish any supper. he spent a
restless night; his physician found him
physically perfect but suffering from
| an hlAtth OF itlNNNN IAhHAidAiNHs

mental or pyslchical conditions that
undid the champion, and gave the
honor" to the negro.

Chief Points in the New Elec-
ton Laws

The recent needless special session
OF the legislature repealed the Taylor
general election law, which the repub.
lican state committee had referred to
vote of the people.
In its stead the democrats put
through the Bryan general election
law, which will also be referred to q
vote of the people by the republican
state committee.
The Bryan law compels the farmers
to register as well as residents of cities
and towns, and puts disfranchising
power in the hands of the registration
officers.
1t places all election machinery in
the hands of the governor, making just
representation Of other than the dem
ocratic party on election boards i'm
possible.
The new Taylor law enacted by the
special session, is an initiative-refer-
endum law providing procedure by
which amendments to the constitution
may be suggested to the people by tht
legislature; it applies in no other
case.
Immediately the legislature adopted
joint resolution. suggesting to the
people that they initiate the Grand.
father Clause" as constitutional
amendment to disfranchise all native
born persons whose grandfathers were
slaves.
The new Taylor law is so worded
that any amendment suggested by e
legislature has many thousand votes
to its credit before ever an election
is held, for the reason that every per-
son who for any reason does not vote
at all is counted for the amendme mt.
The intention of the democrats was
to place Oklahoma forever in the Solid
South class with Arkansas, Missippi
and LOUISIANA
The legislature also enacted the
Cope measure, which permits chall.
engers at the polls on election days,
but killed measure providing
watchers" at the polls
The republican committee in refer
ing the Bryan law must do so under
the Murray initiative-referendu law
enacted by the first state assembly.
To refer the old Taylor law, it cost
the state committee $4,000 and it will
cost this amount to refer the Bryen
Jaw. and an additional $4,000 to fight
the "Grandfather Clause" in the courts
as to its constitutionality.
All the election measures enacted
by the democrats since statehood have
been for the purpose of DISTINGUISHING
the negroes, and also many white
farmers and laboring men through
dishonest registration and to provide
unfair elections by lcgalzing elec.
ion frauds, ballot box stuffing, intimi
dation of voters and elections steals
all for the purpose Of keeping the
democratic party in power over the
protests of the taxpayers. &.
