the contents of many cases of low
medium and high priced wines Beau
de Fart had promised 10 show him
how to deliver in jig time.

pose: "The bill is intended to with
draw the protecting hand Of inter-
state commerce from intoxicating
liquors transported into state for
use therein in violation Of the laws
of such state. Before the Wilson act
of 1890, any person had the right, not
only to have Intoxicating liquors
transported to him from without the
state, but also to sell such liquors in
the original package. The supreme
court in Leisy vs.. Hardin upheld this
right of the consignee. The court
later held in the case Of Rhodes W..
Iowa that the Wilson act deprived
the consignee Of this right he had
formerly had. At present no stats

ing letter from Theodore Roosevelt:
Dear G Colonel Nielsen; WhAt ~

Apparently the: reactionaries have
made up their minds that you, and
the other men like you. can be cowsd.
1t seems tome like tying down the
safety valve in order to prevent IN
explosion. What Lincoln said about
the Dred Scott decision would un-
doubtedly render him liable to be-;
jailed for contempt Of court if alive
and in Idaho today. and Of course his
otfense was thousand times greater
than youIs-besides having the furth-
or resemblance that it was Q great
public service instead OF an offense. =
That would be, strange reading to

News. Indeed. he actually sought to
establish the proposition that critic
ism of public official was equivalent

AN ACT OF DEFIANCE

Huronite: In defiance of the warn.
ing plainly spoken by the government
of the United States. Francisco 1.
Madero and Jose Pine Slarez, late
president and vice president Of the
republic Of Mexico, have been sent to
death by the emissaries of the
Huerta- Diaz combination in the city
of Mexico.
Too cowardly to openly disobey the
injunction of the stronger govern
ment not to execute their prisoners
without . fair trial. the victors have
conspired to inflict the execution in
such way that the responsibility
cannot be fastened upon them.
They are as much to blame as
though they had openly led their vic
Tins to execution and caued the fa-
tai shots to be fired by their soldiers.
They sent assassins to take the lives
of helpless prisoners and in doing it
they have aroused the whole civilized
world against the uncalled for afro
city.
