JUDGE HAXXA'S DKCISJOX.
The decision of Judge Hanna in the suit brought t
test the result of the prohibition election has been what
The Tribune has believed it would be. No other construe
tion could be placed upon the two laws the local option
law and the Medford charter.
It is a principle of law, so plain that a layman would
not deny, that where two acts are repugnant, the later act
will repeal the former where there is an intent to legislate
upon the same subject.
The Medford charter was prepared for the especial
purpoHG of excepting Medford from the local option law
and by reason of the charter the local option vote in Med-
ford of the election for lftfll has been considered as set
aside by all the county and city officials since the charter
.was become a law in H)Q).
It matters not whether the charter was "conceived in
iniquity and sin" or was "railroaded" through the assem
bly. These are matters the judge could not consider. All he
is allowed to do is to interpret the law as he finds it printed
in the authorized form, if the legislative journal shows its
regular passage.
The hysterical shouting about the will of the people be
ing set aside is the veriest, slimiest rot. The local option
law provides for an election, which the supreme court says
in a special election, and every step prescribed by the stat
ute must be strictly followed or tlie elect ion will be void.
It the authorities do not, in calling the election, follow
the laws of the state the result is the same as though no
election had been held. The law requires a petition. If
the county court should call an election without a petition
being filed, the election would be a nullity even Ihoiigh
nine-tenths of the votes were east for prohibition.
In Jackson county the county court called the elec
tion for the whole of Jackson county, when Medford was
specially excepted from the operation of the local option
act. The county court was as much without authority to
order an election for prohibition in the citv of Medford
as it was to order one without a petition or for some pai
of Klamath county.
The decision o dm ire Ilanna lolloweil the decisions
of our own supreme court, and to have decided otherwise
would have been to ignore the opinions of that court in
the cases that have been before it involving the sai iies-
tions.
It should be a source of satisfaction to those who arc
in faveir of prohibition that the decision is so uiieiiiivocal
and plain that it may lie taken before the supreme urt
for a decision on the merits shown of any technical ques
tions. We should all feel some satisfaction in the belief that
in our judiciary we have a class of men who are not swayed
by popular clamor of t lie good or bad. but who adhere lo
what they believe to be the law, and the law is the embod
iment of what we have declared to be right, for the protec
tion of society. . The conscientious men who sit in our
courts are the men who preserve society and maintain or
der. The spineless creatures who bend from the law to
please prejudiced and favorites are a menace to good gov
ernment. The Tribune has perhaps as little reason as anyone
could have for praising .judge I lanna, did it allow person
alities to enter into its consideration id' public questions.
!$ut it does not and tries to discuss such topics upon their
merits.
