MAKING RECALL. UNANIMOUS

The tremendous bent of courts towards property
rights in preference to human rights is illustrated
by to 3 decision of the IT, S. supreme court in the
Patent Monopoly case. And the prevailing opinion
against the people was rendered by Tafts intimate
friend and appointee, Lurton.
The patentee of a rotary mimeograph claimed the
right to compel all users of his machines TO USE
ONLY HIS INK. Think of it! That is, when Uncle
Sam gives patentee monopoly in his invention,
the court says that he also enjoys the right to
monopoze all other business connected with his in
vention.
This decision practically puts an end to govern
ment prosecutions against the Shoe Machinery
Trust the Watch Trust, and nobody can tell how
many other trusts 1t is likely to become the unver
sal charter of privilege to steal from common
folks Because, it will be poor trust that won own
at least patented article and under its protection
it may charge whatsoever it pleases according to
Lurton McKenna, Holmes and Vandervanter
The dose too strong for Chief Justice White
and Justices Hughes and Lamar. They said that
under this decision the patentee of cooking uten-
sill might require that all the food cooked in it be
purchased from him, the patentee of window
frame might assert that all the material in the house
In which the frame to be used must be procured
from him. Notwithstanding the ''untold evils
which the decision entails and the vigorous protest
OF the dissenting judges, sacred property rights
the day Thus do those who oppose recall of judges
become the chief promoters of the reform. There is
only one way to such fossiized judges as Lur-
ton, and that is to recall them.
