Particeps Criminis

The Federal Supreme Court in decision
handed down JAN 20 holds that common car
rers may not refuse to deliver liquors to con-
signees in dry counties of another state
BY this act the government aids and abets
directly the violation Of local law Add to
this the issuing of federal license to appli-
cants in "dry'' territory and the completely
of the government in the compromising OF a
crime becomes complete. 1t is not for us to
crticise the opinion of the court. 1t is pre-
sumed that under the law the court had no
alternative. At the same time it is hard for
a mere layman to understand how either the
spirit or the letter of the constitution can be
consistently made to compel an illegal act.
That decision, however constitutional, can
not but be staggering blow at the supremacy
of law.
The decision is hailed as a great victory
for the liquor interests But so was the bred

hailed as victory for the slavery interests,
and yet it proved one of the most deadly

overthrow of the liquor interests.
\ This difference needs to be Observed how
ever. Slavery had recognition in the con-
stitution The saloon has not. This same
tribunal long since decided that S'There is no
inherent rights in citizen to sell intoxicat-
ing liquor by retail; it is not the privilege
/ of citizen of the state or of the United
States" If not federal Fright then it
must be subject to state control. The court
recognizes that and the right of the state to
regulate or prohibit the traffic in ntoxicants.
And yet the Federal Government will issue
a license authorizing the holder to sell what
is prohibited by the state, or the county un-
der the state, and the Federal Court will
compel common carrier to deliver the goods
made contraband by state law to the holder
of the license, thus expediting the defeat of
the local law and the commission of crime.
True, the consignee may want the liquor for
personal use and not for illegal sale, but the

HERE'S THE RErc,-sni

The Hartford Cepublican, in IL
last iss-e, Rys;
"The greensboro Inquirer, IN
commenting on an editorial
from this paper, makes the
mistake of crediting Editor
Barnett with having been a
Taft Republican. He was new
er a Taft Republican" etc.
In its issue of May 81, 1909, un
der the editorship of C. NJ. Barnett
the Hartford Republican said
The recent message of Pres
ident Taft, which he submitted
to Congress relative to the
government of Porto Rico, was
in very great contrast to the
BOMBASTIC BROADSIDES
which PRESIDENT ROOSE-
WELT usually fired at Capitol
Hill. The DIGNIFIED,
STATESMANLIKE utterances
of PRESIDENT TAFT will no
doubt be received by Congress
in a very different spirit from
those of his predecessor.
Again, in the Hartford Repub.
lican of February 8, 1911, Editor
Barnett said:
The Republican convention
which convened at Beaver
Dam, last Monday, nominated
Mr.. Commodore Holman, of
Butler county, for the State
Senate. We understand Mr..
Holmon is a man of excellent
ability and is a thorough Re- o.
publican in every respect. The
convention also endorsed
PRESIDENT TAFT and Sena-
tor Bradley for reelection and
went on record as favoring
Judge O'Rear for the Repub-
lican nomination for Governor.
to all of which We say AMEN.
The public can take these three
paragraphs and tell pretty well
whether the political editor of the
Hartford Republican ever had a
special liking for Taft-ever en-
dorsed him-or whether he is sim
cere in his protestations that he
was never a Taft Republican.

A SERIOUS CHARGE.

The Hartford Republican in its
last issue says:
Some men who have regu-
larry bolted the old Repub-
lican party nominees for years.
and who have often required
financial help to get in line.
are rushing into print in crit
icism of members of the pro-
gressive party for refusing to
endorse the theft at Chicaso.
Such citizens should pray for
power TO see themselves as
others see them. This gift
once attained, they would stay
out of the newspapers and
maintain that degree of mod
esty becoming to those who
live in glass houses.
Hey, there, Mr.. Perry Crowder.
Mr.. True-Blue Republican. who
have lately got into print to defend
old party principles, and others of
the Taft fellows who prefer estab-
Iished principles to mushroom boss
ism under the Chief Bull Mooser-
what about this matter, anyhow?
Have you been regular boilers"
md have you often required finan-
'ial help to get into line?" The
Hartford organ" or oracle Of the
:. o. p. alleges that you are this
KIND OF party men. 1t also saws
something about those who live in
glass houses" but the inference is
lot very clear.
How about this, gentlemen? It,
serious charge and deserves
ONE attention. Are the Taft men

financial help" to keep them in

Who would have thought, ac-
cording to the Dragging stand of
certain &. o. p. newspapers in past
years, that the managers of the Re-
publican party had to use money
to give financial assistance" to vo-
ters TO get them to vote their way.
and thus uphold their time-honored
"principles?' And yet the Hart
ford Bull Moose sheet, whose edi-
tors are supposed to know some
thing about party management. in
Inmates that this was true. Does
that account for the big Republic

gone by?
