PUBLIC WELFARE PARA
MOUNT,

Among the recent decisions OF the SUI
preme court the one on the Validity Oh
tho eighteenth. the prohibition conS'l-
rutioral amendment. absorbed public M
,crest 10 such an extent that other de-
cisions Of almost equal Importance rem
hsred at the same time have been almost
overlooked. One OF these is the afhrma-
tii5ffS 81 the deci9ohs Of the state su-
pneras .court OF North Dakota and the
y tSierai court AZ Fargo. by which inJunc-
'tions against the governor and otner
stare ,ffcers were refused which were
intended 10 prevent them from eaforc-
ing certain state laws which had oeen
enacted In due and proper form. Thesc
stats. laws embodied the industrial pro-
gram VI the Non-rartisan League. the
Complete legality ot which was thus
fully established.
The decision Of the highest tribunal
was unanimous and was delivered by
Justice Day, who was secretary OF state
under Mckinley. and cannot be charged
with radical tendencies. The detailed
opinion in support OF the decision !s
featured by the declaration that the
clearly expressed will OF the majority
OF the people. though the result may be
unwise legislation. must not be thwart-
ed except IN cases OF clearly proven vio-
lations Of the constitution. and that all
other considerations have TO yield 10
the regard for the welfare OF the great
mass OF the people. II is. a reafhrma-
ton OF the old Latin maxim, that tho
welfare OF the people IS the highest
law" We hope that this principle will
become typical Of tho decisions Of all
our courts IN which the letter OF the
law is-often triumphant over its spirit
and the welfare Of me people, is too fire.
