THE SUPREME COURT OPIN
ION.
The Omaha railroad organ with a
republican label miken a ukulk-
Ing Bnsnult on the supreme
court for tholr opinion relative -
tivo to the unconstitutionally of a
railroad commission , It pronounces
the decision flippant , illrg.il and on a
par with an ordinary stump speech
and charges that It was "presumedly
prepared to answorn political demand. "
Too cowardly to openly charge that
Judge Like and his associates sold
tholr opinion for political applanso , it
places the remark in the mouth of
outsiders ard then mildly saya that
the charge is "of course , unjust. "
The object cf the entire article In to
discredit our highest elate tribunal to
slur its judges and to cast discredit ou
its work ,
Now the fact ia that there wai > no
pressing demand from thn legislature
for an unfavorable opinion upon the
commissioner system. Many of the
members , notably General Connor
among the anti-monopolists believed
it to bo unconstitutional , but fully an
many others who desired honest regu
lation tf railroads thought a board of
commissioners tlio most feasible plan
of dealing with the corporations. THK
BKE has hold from the time the com
missioner system was first agitated
that It conflicted with Article V , of our
state constitution. But scores of able
and honest men * disagreed with us.
Where did "the political demand"
which th.9 Iteinillican says influenced
the supreme court to write tholr opin
ion como from 1 Did it onmo from
the republican majority In the House ?
How many cf the republicans were
opposed to the creation of a commis
sion , or had over studied the question
snfliolently to know whether the pro
posed law would or would not conflict
with the constitution 1 Everyone at
Lincoln knows that a largo number of
the anli-monopolists came to the leg
islature prepared to vote for bills mod
elled after the Illinois law , and that
the question of the uncoiihtitutlonnl-
ity of Huch a measure wan not dis-
cutsod until bftor the cession began.
The truth is that the railroads had
sot tholr hearts up-n a board of rail
road commissioners and are chagrined
because such a bosrd cannot bo
created. Several ef the corporation
attorneya , before the legislature be
gan , declared that the acts ef a rail
road commission could never bo enforced -
forced under our constitution. Others
hoped to control the board in case the
law stood thn test of the courts.
Every railroad organ , headed by the
Republican , howled themselves hoarse
for a commission. The supreme court
opinion baa balked their plans.
The "derisive comment , " which
the dcc'slon ia said to provoke ,
is confined to the disappointed corpo
ration attorneys and tools. It has
not yet shown itself among the mem
bers of the legislature , who are workIng -
Ing to secnro an operative railroad
law , which will stand the teats of the
courts. No fair minded citizen doubts
the honcnty c f the court in rendering
tholr deoleion. It is a common Eonso
opinion , whoso truth ia borne out by
the plain language of the constitution.
And no one honestly believes that
there was any prossurn of public de
mand or political li.lluonco brought
to boor upon the court which framed
it.
THK BKK atjain riaoa to remark that
there arc too mtinjf cost mill justieo
courts in Oinshi , aud that tholr num
ber or gilt to bo decreased by an act of
the legislature fixiug the number nt
not moro thau ouo justtco for every
8,109 puoplo iu cities c f the tint-class.
Omaha has now tvrolvu justices of thu
poaof , or two for each ward. There
is not enough legitimate business to
support moro than half the number.
Tfto couecquonco is that business
which Is not legitimate Is hunted up
to roll up the foe-H by which our jus
tices make their living. SeverJ ol
these justice pedlars are notoriously
lr.09inpetcnt and dishonest. Theii
opinion Is always given against the
side which la able to pay the costs ,
Coats are what thcso logd sharks an
cftor , and justice is a secondary con <
sldm-atlou. The conuequonco is lhal
litigation is encouraged ruthor thnr
discouraged , and thoao who are toe
poor to transfer their c.wea are madi
the victims of tholr poverty.
It in a utandlug scandal that in man ]
of our ] ustico courts no ropoctnblo at
torney ; an win his cuso against eoni
etUfojjgor , who "haa the oar of th
ourt , " aud who thrown all his case
nto that particular judicial grist -nil
u return for the judge's favor ,
The plain remedy far this shainofi
condition of affairs , in the opinion c
ho bust lawyers , in to out down tl
lumber tf jnstica's courts in larfi
cities. The positions will then t
worth enough to command rospootab
aud honust candidates. Men of abl
ity will gladly compote for an * o
worth 2COO , a year , honestly admit
latorod when they vrlll refuse to BOI
an i llico where the scanty foes mu
bo worked up by disreputable method
is
ho THK French chamber of deputies b
gin to day the discussion of the e
ta pulsion bills leveled against all pi
01 tenders and occasioned by Frln
l'lon-1'lon'a revolutionary manlfoe
ho of tea days ago , There nto thr
ire measures before that body. Floquo
resolution which proposes to expel
dynastic prcicndern includu ; the
Orleans piincrsi , the uovornmont
aeuni nhich gi es the pmvnr to the
mltiisttji to i jdln a pretender when
ever thry think him danycroun and a
compromise between the two which
degrades ull princely eflicors of the
army and grants the government dis
cretionary powers of cxpnltion
when the needs of the
state seem to require It.
The ondof the crisis will probably bo
the dissolution cf the ministry which
has been at best a makeshift affair
since it succeeded Gambottn'a cabinet.
It Is discredited by the country and
powerless to originate or Influence
legislation. The pinlc into which it
was thrown by I'rmco Napoleon's
escapade shows its utter lack of force
or character. If the chamber succeeds
in carrying through its radical measure
over the heads of M. DaClorc and his
associitos It will afford the best oppor
turily possible for the resignation cf
the whole body. Any ministry would
ba moro acceptable to Franco than the
present ono whether chosen from the
radical or conservative wings cf the
deputies.
BOTH branches of congress are now
wrangling over the tariff and the de
bate promises to bo n long and fruit
less ono Those who are In a position
to know doubt whether any bill will
pass , and others claim that no meas
ure which makes any substantial re
duction in the present duties can
stand the fire of the lobbies which
crowd the corridors of the capital.
The senate has boon engaged for
ever a week in the attempt to pass a
bill which will do something toward
meeting the popular demand for tax
reduction , It has reduced the tariff
on iron rails from $28 a ton to 817. CO ,
placed lumber on the free list , and
made some excellent changes in the
duties on wool , metals and pottery.
But the senate's right to originate a
revenue bill will bo challenged in the
house , and there is no hope of the
measure passing the lower body. In
the houao of representatives the
waya and moans comraittoo'a
bill , which increases instead
of decreasing the present ,
tariff is now under discussion , cham
pioned by Fig Iron Kelly and backed
by the strongest lobby of protected
interests which has ever been in
Washington. The prospects of Its
poasigo In a form which will be acceptable
coptable to the senate , or on which a
conference committee can work with
any hopes of success , are not ta all
bright. The indications that any
general reduction will bo made on
the articles from which industrial mo
nopolies now derive the heaviest profits
and which the people are most op-
prosively taxed upon are hopeless.
Ia other words It looks aa if there Is
to bo a great deal of talk and very few
results of public benefit in the present
debate Wo shall hoar plenty of
spread eagle oratory on American in
dustry , and amendment after amendment
mont will bo tacked on the bill report
ed from the oommlttoo until it * ia
smothered to death. After this con-
groca will probably adjourn and leave
the work of revising the tariff to ita
successor.
THKIIK Is n good deal ( f padded out
nonaenuo being telegraphed from Lin
coln to eastern papers about the nc-na-
tnrial contest , und especially regarding
the republican caucuses. The truth
of the matter ia that no candidate
who la boliuved to bo a favorite of the
railro&ds , oven if nominated by a cau
cus , can aocnro his election in the
joint convention. There are enough
republicans who know that their con
stituents wiU not permit them to
ukulk behind the dictates of a caucus
to defeat auy such a sohemo. And
candidates who are depending on the
caucus boom to foist them Into the
seat now occupied by Alvin Sounders
are likely to discover this fact to their
Borioua disappointment. People are
getting tired ever the length of the
contest , but they would ghtdly see it
protracted to the last day of the BCH-
aion if by that means au honest , able
und equaro-toed senator could bo so-
cured. Iu that event the railroads
would bo n good deal moro tired than
the people.

Rorloua Mlfctmp at a Birthday Party.
Falli City Journal.
List Saturday being little Johnnie
Wherry's birthday , the event w n celebrated -
ebrated by a pleasant little party , his
young fdonda being invited , and
bringing auch presents as the fancied.
Among the presents was a 22 calibre
revolver , which instrument came nour
ending the phasuro of the day in a sad
tragedy , No ono supposing the revolver
ver to bo loaded , Johnnie snapped it ,
in play , when it wont off , dischrrg-
Ing two bullets from the ono cham
ber. Ono passed through little Emma
ilolts hair and the other hit little
Kelin in the cheek , wounding him
quite severely , though not dan *
gerously. Ibo manufacture of
that pernicious little infernal ma
chine , the 22 calibre revolver , ought
to bo abolished.
Fence the Track.
Fall * City Journal.
With ever ICO bills already intro
duced In the senate and 200 In the
house it may bo foolish to propose any
additional legislation , but wo do think
that a bill ought to bo introduced by
some one and passed compelling rail
road companies to fence their tracks ,
as it seems they will not do this with
out compulsion. There are two excel
lent reasons why this should bo done ,
for safety to trams and to eave the
owners of the lands through which
the roads run from an ondlosa amount
of trouble in keeping their stock of !
the tracks , and In getting pay for whal
is killed. Such a law is noeaed very
much.
