Criticism of the Supreme Court,
i The New York Poet during the last
residential campaign, bitterly de
kunced Mr. Bryan and his platform lor
fc and Its criticism of the supreme
anrt. The Poet maintained that the
supreme court, being the court of last
resort in all affairs, ought to be free
from criticism. But a change has come
over the spirit of the New York Poet's
dreams. The Post made a bitter criti
cism of the supreme court's decision re
lating to the freight association. In
defense of that criticism the Post says:
"Several newspapers for which we bare
a sincere respect bare commented on
our criticism of the supreme court's de
cision in the case of the trans-Missouri
freight association, as though a loyal
newspaper were bound not merely to
obey but to approve of all decisions
made by that tribunal. This doctrine is
susceptible of very wide application. It
would require us to approve of the
Dred Scott decision. It would require
iiR tn mvn nnr assent intellectually
to the contradictory decisions of the
court: ni Inr example, to the decision
rendered by Chief Justice Chase denying
the constitutionality of the legal tender
net. and tn the latter ones affirming it
There hnv been, as we are frequently
reminded, two contradictory decisions
on the constitutionality of the income
t&. Which of these may a patriotic
c'tizen criticise? The proper answer is
that he may criticise both. Mr. Lincoln
laid down the correct rule in his debates
with Kpnn.tnr Douglas, that we owe
obedience to the decisions of courts, but
A io not necessarily owe them our appro

This is worthy of special attention

RrvRn rwanan he criticised a supreme
court decision that be believed to be
unjust and against the interests of the
people. Now that ths court baa ren
dered one decision that is not agreeable
to the Rnrnorations the Post and other
monopoly organs denounce that decis
ion; and it is worthy of remark that in
justification of their right to criticise
tbey employ the same argument for the
nee of which tbey heaped their scorn
upon Mr. Bryan less than seven months
ago. World ueraia.

Lincoln, Neb., Al ay 25, 1897.
The past week has been a very warm
one; the daily meau temperature has
averaged 7 degrees above the normal
and the maximum temperatures exceed
ed 90 degrees in many localities, espec
ially in the central counties, on one or
more days.
The rainfall has been above the
normal in the extreme western and
north central counties and generally
below elsewhere.
The past week has been a very favora-
able one for the advancement of farm
work. ' It has been fairly favorable for
the growth of vegetation. In a large
portion of the central and southwestern
sections of the state ths small grain is
beginning to suffer for want of moisture,
and corn is sprouting slowly and com
ing op unevenly for the same reason;
generally small grain has grown well in
other sections. Corn planting is nearly
completed in the central and southern
counties and mors than three-fourths of
ths crop is planted in ths northern
counties. The early planted corn is
coming np in all sections and there is
a general complaint that ths stand is
thin and that considerable replanting
will be necessary. Cultivation of corn
has commenced in ths southern counties.
