PRAISE FOR TooELEANs.

1t is always good TO sec one neigh
Dor stick up for another. Accordingly
we are rejoiced to see in the Tooele
Times just received the following
Endorsement of officials Of Tooele
county:
In every instance of uphoding law and
order in our CITY and County we notice
that our officials are prompt and active.

To the city officials of Tooele we are
quite willing to concede everything
that the Times claims for them. AS TO
the County Attorney and the Sheriff
we concede also the large exercise of
friendly toleration and sympathy which
led the Times TO say good things
about them as its neighbors.

The decision is welcomed throughout
the country as good law and good prac-

THE L1TIGoUs SUITS.

1t is hard to understand the idea Of
the government in further pursuing the
enforced dissertation of transporta
ton companies with the ownership of
the freight which they haul. Thus far
tins dissertation has been made espe.
cialIy applicable to the product of coal
mines IT arises primarily in the LIE.
high coal region, taking form in the
prohibition of the railroads to own the
mines producing the coal which they
haul; but it applies to all; the leg.
islatlon is nation wide and reaches all
roads and all mines. The roads have.
academically at least, conformed TO the
law requiring them 10 separate their
transportation business from any own
ership in the coal which they haul Sep.
arate coal companies have been general
ly organized for this purpose. It is
probably true that the stock of these
separate coal companies is held by the
railroads, or by the stockholders Of the
railroads This, however, does not seem
to be enough, and Attorney General
Wickersham is reported as determined
TO break up any supposed collusion be-
tween the transportation business and
the Proprietorship Of coal hauled.
The theory on which this sort of leg
Islation or procedure is pushed undouht-
edly is that the railroads would favor
their own freights as against freight of.
fered By others, and also that it would
enable them to form combinations to
control prices in the markets of deliv-
cry. But the legislation already had,
and the separation already made, seems
ample for the purpose, and any one ag.
grleved could, under the present leeis~
latlon, enforce ample remedies against
any railroad companies which might
violate the law, There has been no
complaint, so far as the public is aware,
of any violation Of the law to the in
jury Of any one or of the public, or
that the separation already made be-
tween the ownership of coal mines and
coal and the transportation companies is
not sufficient for every purpose de.

1t must be admitted that all legisla
tion of this kind is distinct reversal

OF the common law, and of aforctime
commercial usage. 1t has always been
the custom In the commercial world for
the seller Of goods TO deliver those
goods to the customer. This has been
true from ocean shipping 80 local de-
livery in communities. IL one buys
goods ut his grocer s, the grocer deliv-
ors those goods; it is a part of the bar
gain. If it were required that the
grocer should not deliver the goods, but
must employ an independent, separate
business concern to deliver them, the
case would be analogous with the re-
quirement that the railroad companies
shall not deliver coal owned by them
selves. All legislation of this kind is
an intrusion upon common law and
personal and commercial rights; bnt it
is upheld on the theory that the com.
munity interest requires it, and the
community interest must govern.
When, however, il is sought to push
this intrusive legislation further. and
to require not only that the interests
as between ownership and trausporta-
tlon shall be In fact severed, but that
there must be no common ownership by
stockholding or otherwise, in the two
propositions, il seems to US that this is
going too far; and we do not believe
that Attorney General Wickersham can
possibly be successful in any suit which
he may bring to push the separation TO
the extreme which appears to be con
templated in this further litigation
Just as the right and proper rule laid
down by the Supreme Court in the Stan,
dard Oil and Tobacco Trust cases was
the death of oppressive corporations.
and the decision of the Eighth Judicial
Circuit Court in the Hartman case was
protection to legitimate enterprise. so
we believe decision in this new form
of the Wickersham litigation will be a
protection to the railroad companies
and coal mine owners alike against un.
reasonable and contentious interfer-
ence.

DEATH OF OFFICER JOHNSTON.

The death of Sergeant Johnston Of
the police force in this city adds an
other to the desperate crimes of hard.
encd toughs in this region, of which
we have had altogether too many This
is peculiarly bad case, for the reason
that the officer was in the strict line of
| his duty when lie received the fatal
shot at the hands of drunken des-
pcrado named Elmer l.. Dewey. There
| had been trouble between Dewey and
his wife, and they were having noisy
quarrel in a public hotel, The officers
were called to see what it was all about,
and with view of having quiet re-
stored. Sergeant Johnston responded
to the call. and proceeded to investigate
The cause Of the trouble, as it was nee
essary for him TO do in the line of his
duty. Upon his appearance on the

therein, but to the utmost respect as
an officer OF the law. 1t must have
been known to Dewey that the uproar
he was making would invite the atten-
tion Of the police. He must have been
in that frame of mind, that he would
resent any interference, even to the
most desperate extent, But that state
of mind is no excuse, no defense; IS
indeed in itself an offense. The fact
that while crazed by drink he perpe-
trates an atrocious crime like this
makes his case ali the worse, in any
way in which il can be justly looked at.
1t was his duty TO submit to the law,
10 receive the officers as representatives
Of the law, with that respect for the
law and its officers which is due from
every person, high and low alike. That
he received the officer with violence,
and with murderous discharge of his
pistol, is an act of such jndefensible
atrocity, that it is quite impossible to
say anything except in the scverest
condemnation.
Sergeant ,Johnstone will be signal
loss to the police force of this city.
He was a good officer, highly respected
not only as an officer, but as a man.
He deserved we'll of the community,
and in fact deserved well of the man
who murdered him. His family is pros
trate with grief. and the sympathy Of
this community goes out TO them in un
stnted degree Their lot is hard one
indeed; and as Sergeant Johnston died
in vindication of the law, and in the
line of his duty, there should be sub

afflicted family, which has thus been

The new law, as it stands is an abso-

was designed 70 be go: Prevention OF
prohibition was included in the bargain
between the dominant party politicians

conditions is rather surprising.
