TWIN HORSES
VEST PICTURE
WITH NOVELTY

Twin horses are an unusual drama
tic novelty said to give decidedly
different twist to "North of the Rio
Grande," the Jack Holt-Bebe Daniels
co-star Paramount picture which
opens at the Virginia theatre for
three days, beginning Thursday.
1t cannot be doubted, however, that
the twin horses seen in ''North of the
Rio Grande" provided action equally
interesting with that of 'stwin"
stage plays such as Twelfth Night"
COMEDY of Errors" 'Hoodman
Blind" "The Twin Sisters" and 1.-THE
Crystal Gazer." For the call of
blood between two great equines,
Comet" and Meteor" is said to give
a novel touch to this play of the
West written by Vnigie Z. Roe and
scenarized by viii NJ. Ritchey. Roll

players include Alec B. Francis.

He crows like rooster and is always

And always finds plenty to do.

Now, the Federal judges have been
modified and Chief Justice Taft
made commander in chief. What is
his record? The American people
showed what they thought about his
record when they gave him the worst
beating that any presidential candi-
date ever got at the polls until Gov
ernor Cox ran. Judge Taft, on the
district bench, was the very first
Federal judge who nailed the en-
gineer to his locomotive and denied
him his right to quit work when the
job and the pay dissatisfied him. 1t
is as much the right of human be-
ing to quit work as it is his right to
earn his living by work. Both are
natural rights, and no Judge can
legally take them away. Taft took
them away from the engineer.-Sena-

that. Congressional Record.
Mr.. Stanley. In my opinion much
of the confusion touching this ques-
ton has arisen from failure to dis
tiunguish between monopoly and re-
straint of trade. The old Elizabethan
monopoly, whether created by law or
whether the result of the activities Of
the individual, enable one man or one
concern to control too great a portion
of an Industry, like the one that was
attempted to be prevented in the old
laws, a monopoly in the purchasing
of grain. That has never been accept
ed by modern legislators, and was
not in the mind of Edmunds or any
of the other authors of the antitrust
law. Our laws, as | see it, simply
deal, not with monopolies, but with
the acts of interference in the un-
trammeled currents of commerce,
and it is not so much the effect upon
the currents as the act of interfering.
That line of decisions was perfectly
plain until, unfortunately, l think it
was Chief Justice White who incor-
porated the idea of reasonable re-
straint of trade-the rule of reason.
As legislators our only trouble now
is in determining to what extent men
can interfere with the untrammeled
course of trade without materially
impairing the movement of commerce,
the reasonable or unreasonable re-
straint of trade.-Congressional Rec
ord.

The injunctions issued by Judges
Kicks and Taft, as described last
week, were applied to members of the
Railway Brotherhoods, for, at this
period (1S92), there were extensive
strikes on a number of railroads.
On August 10, 1893, Judge Jenkins
of the United States Circuit Court
for the Eastern District of Wisconsin
appointed three receivers for the
Northern Pacific Railroad Company.
Two days later the receivers ordered
a reduction of salaries of all en-
ployes.
On October 28 the same receivers
abolished all existing schedules cover
ing rates of wages to employees. These
orders created great dissatisfaction
and, becoming alarmed, the receivers,
on December Is, applied to the fed
eral court for authority to enforce a
reduction in wages, and at the same
time for an injunction restraining
and prohibiting them from combin-
ing and conspiring to quit with or
without notice."
On the following day December
1917, Judge Jenkins granted an ex
parte hearing to the receivers attor
neys, and, complying with their re-
quest, issued an injunction restrain
ing the employees from striking; in
other words, binding them to their
jobs by an equity decree as effective
ly as the serfs had formerly been at
tached to the soil through the power
which the mobiles had acquired.
Finding that an equity court was
at their service, and not satisfied with
what they had already secured, an
application was made, three days
later, for an injunction which would
restrain the representatives and MEM
bers of the brotherhoods from fed
Grating or cooperating for the pur-
pose of comforting with the receivers.
Judge Jenkins action aroused the
intense indignation Of all those who
believed that the United States Gov
eminent was government by law,
instead of government by man.
Congressman McGann introduced a
resolution in the House calling for an
investigation of Judge jenkins ac-
ton. The resolution, with some
amendments, was adopted by the
House and, later on, the committee
submitted a report to the House
which read in part;
"The power to punish for contempt
is limited by the laws of most of the
States and we can see no reason why
a like limitation should not be placed
upon the powers of Federal judges.

Mr.. Edge. Mr.. President, this dis
cussion is very interesting; but allow
me to direct the attention of the
Senator from Minnesota to the fact
that these trade associations do not
represent big business. That is the
remarkable part of it. They repre-
sent a combination of the smaller
business interests of the country. The
big interests are so independent and
so powerful and have such other or

WRIGHT RAISES MORE
MONEY TO RELEASE HIS
AUTOMOBILE FROM POLICE

On Tuesday, a Chandler automobile
belonging to V. H. Wright, was at
tached at the request of parties liv-
ing in Urbana, who had started suit
against Wright for damages caused
by collision. This action was taken
when it was believed he was leaving
the Twin Cities and that was the only
course for the parties to protect their
interests.
The machine was in the custody of
the police but a short time while
Wright visited some of his friends.
He returned later with plenty of
money to release his car.
Wright is said to have taken a
situation as bookkeeper in the Hun
ter-Wood & Co. of Urbana.
