THE POLICE CAN INTERFERE.
TAa Court Oaniw An njMiioMen 4at tfc
Matat Caaa,
Chicago dispatch: Several days ago
the Arbeiter bund, an anarchist society,
appealed to the court for an injunction
to prevent the police from interfering
with their public meotings. The matter
was referred to Master in Chancery
Windcs, who made a report to-day. He
finds no precedent for interfering by in
junction with their official conduct, un
less property rights sre involved. He
does not deem it within the province of
a master to recommend injunctions save
where it is clearly established by prece
1 dent that thpy sliould issue, find con
tents himself with su'estiug that one
issue. As to the facts, ho finds com
plainants have a constitutional right to
meet; that there is no testimony bevond
the mere belief of Chief of Police Hub
bard and Inspector BundeM that com
plainants desire to overthrow the laws
of the state and nation. The statement
of these defendants that somo of the
members of the Arbeiter bund belonged
to anarchistic societies, in which tho
overthrow of state and national laws
was advocated, is not suflicient to prove
the Arbeiter buud to bo an illegal and
revolutionary organization. He says
the aflidavits of the complainants and
several other citizens say that the pur
poses of the bund are lawful and proper.
The master denies that to restrain the
police from permitting the Arbeiter
bnnd meeting would bo an interference
with their discretion. On that subject
he says in part: "It is hostile and even
dangerous to the genius of our institu
tions, and in conflict with those upon
which they are based, to assume that a
policeman without judicial responsibil
ity shall exercise judicial power to grant
or withhold the rights of citizens consti
tutionally to meet in public assemblies.
If the mere belief of a police officer
that projected public meetings are for
unlawful purposes shall oierate to the
prohibition of snch meetings, such be
liefcreated perhaps by error, malice,
bigotry or political partisanship may
be resorted to for the effectual extin
guishment of a fundamental coratilu
tionid right.
When citizens have assembled, if they
advocate or proceed to the commission
of unlawfnl acts or the overthrow of
government, or tho destruction of prop
erty, then the conservators of peaoe
may exercise their discretion in dis
persing them. 1 f in this case the police
have substantial grounds for their be
lief, they should not be engaged in a
debate before a master of chancery de
fending an assumed judicial power, but
as conservators ( f the peace, should ar
rest tho complainants and appear as
their accusers inacriminal proceediii" "
I he attorney for the Arbeiter bund
considers the report of the master onlv
a partial victory.
George Hchifling, the well-known asri-
tator. Said to a mtmrtr- "II J

Following is the inaugural address of
Governor Thayer of Nebraska on the
occasion of his taking the oath of office
for a second term:
With a full and grateful appreciation
of the kindness of the people of Ne
braska and of the honor bestowed upon
me by my election a second time to the
office of executive of the state, I have
appeared here in your presence to take
the oath of office prescribed by the con
stitution, and to give assurance of a
faithful discharge of duty.
Government is formed for the benefit
and protection of all the people who
come within its jurisdiction. The ap
plication, purKse and source of govern
ment are clearly described in the mem
orable and impressive language of Lin
coln: "A government of the people
and for the eople and by the poople."
The statesmen of the revolutionary
period seemed to have imbibed the same
idea, for they aimed to establish gov
ernment t. pone new principle, namely,
nion the recognition of the people as
the source of sovereign power. They
proclaimed this principle in the declara
tion of Independence, and they aimed
to make it a living, tangible reality in
the government which they organized.
They overthrew the time-honored dog
ma which had come down through the
ages, that divinity hedges kingly sov
ereignty. They swept away with a
ruthless hsnd the old notions of rank,
of caste, of infallibility, and substituted
in their stead the broad, comprehensive
and only true philosophical princi
ple of government, that sovereignty cm
enates from the hearts and minds of
those who make and unmake thrones,
and kingdoms, and who create princi
palities, and powers, and republics.
Tiiey saw that in the monarcbial gov
ernment the ruler is the sovereign.
They declared that in this country the
ruled should be Ihe sovereigns, and the
true theory of republican gvernrnent has
been realized in this land. The people
can only be deprived of this sovereignty
by their indifference and supiueneas to
the insidious assaults made against its
very foundations.
THE BALLOT.
The instrumentality by which the sov
ereignty seeks expression is the ballot.
By it a freeman's will is mode known.
By it the sovereign Heaks. It should
be as sacred as honor caa make it Jt
should bo as pure as tho sunbeams. It
should be treasured as a holy thing. No
polluted hands should ever lay violence
upon it. It should ever be guarded
with all tho sacreducss of a religious
faith.
The intent of the mechanic is illus
trated by the wonderful mechanism his
genius has created. It works perfectly
without the variation of a hair. It im
plicitly obeys the will of its sovereign
and creator. Tho machinery must be
perfect and without alloy. The purity
of the ballot is the safety of tho nation.
In it rests tho iiermanenco of our re
publican form of government Dolilo
tho ballot and tho fountain source of
government is jK.lluted and its efficacy
is destroyed. The man who buys the
vote of another aud the man who sells
it, are alike deserving universal public
reprobntion snd should be speedily
lodged for a Ion? terra of years iu tho
cells of a penitentiary, for they are unfit
toJivcTwth decent iepple. They are
public enemies. They have committed
a crime- against the stnto, a crimo
agaiiist government, a crimo against so
ciety, a crimo against civil order, a
crime against humanity. It jx lament'

the ordinary burglar. H should be re
garded with scorn and detestation. He
should bo branded as an outcast among
men.
