To Mr. Fuller, Chief Justice of the
United States.
Dear Sir: The supreme court
was established as a conservator of
the public weal and as a safeguard
to American liberty.
It was be­
lieved that nine men, raised to the
highest eminence on earth, and
clothed with the supreme dignity
and power o f a court of last ap­
peal, would hold the scales of jus­
tice with a steady hand.
It was
believed that when nine minds,
each eminent for legal lore and
power of
discrimination, wero
brought to benr upon any subject,
unalloyed truth would he separated
from the rubbish of falsehood and
error and a decision reached unsul­
lied by sordid motives or the bias
of meaner souls. But we have been
disappointed. Your opinion setting
aside the income tax law as uncon­
stitutional is regarded by every
patriot as unjust and revolutionary.
Your decision consigning Eugene
V. Debs to a felon’s cell denies the
right of a laboring man to counsel
other laboring men. You, Mr. Ful­
ler, have decided, other justices con­
curring, that the poor man shall
bear the burdens of the rich. You
have reversed the former decisions
of the court. You have set aside
all precedent relating to income tax
both in America and England and
entered in the records of our high­
est tribunal an opinion unjust to
every producer of wealth in the
United States.
We believe you
bnvo disgraced the ermine and for­
feited the reBpect of men.
You
are a menace to American liberty.
You stand as a barrier and hin­
drance to bar our progress towards
that equality which is guaranteed
by the constitution. More than a
quarter of a century ago the su­
preme court ruled that n negro had
no rights which the white man was
bound to respect; but the people
reversed the decision.
You have
virtually ruled that the toiling men
have no rights that the bondholder
is bound to respect. We, sovereign
citizens of the United States, pro­
test against your decision. In the
name of oppressed humanity and
appealing to the great Jehovah we
denounce and condemn nnd utterly
repudiate the action of yourself and
concurring justices. We hold your
decision in supreme contempt and
hereby call upon you to resign. In
behalf of outraged justice we de­
mand that you come down from a
seat which you are in no wise
worthy to occupy that the ermine
may be entrusted to men who not
only fear God but who also love
justice and will dare to do right
while raging bondholders and land­
lords oppose in vain.

In another column we give a sum­
mary o f Judge Ross’ decision,
adverse to the government in its
suit against the Stanford estate for
$15,400,000.
It is a voluminous
document, the “ points” in which we
must take time to analyze.

legislation of congress the govern­
ment’s intent was not to exact from
the individual stockholders their
proportion of that debt, and that
under the laws of ’62 in California
they are not responsible for their
proportion of thut indebtedness-
This is the first time in the history
of California that such a decision
has been reached by any court in
the state. Hitherto no lawyer has
so construed tho law, and in the
argument presented to Judge Ross,
Judge Garber did not make this
contention."
One significant fact we notice in
the decision is that the judge,
while extolling the important na­
tional character and military aspect
of the railroad enterprise, started
in the midst of a civil war, is care­
ful not to state that the entire ben-
fits were gobbled up by five men
who robbed first the stockholders
and then the entire people, as far
as they could reach them, both as
a government and as individuals.
He might truly say that such com­
ment would be out of place in a ju­
dicial opinion; but it would be no
more so than what he says in eulogy
of the purposes and advantages of
the road and the implied enterprise
of the magnates in building it
with other people’s money, getting
paid for it three tin es over, hold­
ing the virtually stolen property
and repudiating the debt without
contracting which they could never
have built the road at all.
Without Judge McKissick’s confi­
dence in Justice Ross’ “ conscien­
tiousness,” we believe, with him,
that the decision is wrong, and
when we have studied it more care­
fully we will probably conclude that
it is a crime.— S. F. Star.
S. F. Star: The two robbers who
“held up” the train the other day
were more considerate than Hun­
tington and his “pals.” The former
refused to take anything from
women or men whose appearance
indicated that he worked for a liv­
ing. The latter robbed everybody,
including the widow and orphan,
nnd, as in - the case of the Mussel
Slough settlers, sometimes supple­
mented robbery by murder.
S. F. Star: In Austria prizes are
given to encourage farmers to re­
cover waste lands, and also to build
stables and shelters for cows at
high altitudes. Here the govern­
ment taxes people for doing such
things.
Human life would be much more
secure if nil the “ doctors” were
dead.
Railroad Monopoly and Fustal Deficit.
U. S. Senator Vilas was nt ono
time postmaster-general, and in a
speech in the senate last session (to
which the Twentieth Century colls
attention), he stated that, while the
total value of 740 railroad postal
cars was only $1,600,000, $2,000,000
a year was paid by the government
for their rent alone.
The main­
tenance of those cars costs annually
$722,360; but whether that sum is
paid by the companies or tho govern­
ment is not stated.
The Pennsyl­
vania railroad alone received more
than $2,000,000 annually for mail
transportation and $575,000 for rent
of 50 postal cars.
Senator Vilas then moved to ap-
priate $500,000 for the purchase,
ownership, and management of the
necessary postal cars, but the bill
was promptly laid on the table by
23 to 10.
Of course the Associated Press
dispatches were entirely silent as to
the senators expose and bill. Steps
should be taken to ascertain the
entire annual payments for rent of
cars and carriage of mails, and the
approximate weight of mail thus
carried. We think it would then
be easy to show that the deficit in
the postal revenue is covered three
or four times over by the amount
paid for rent of cars nnd carriage
of mails exceeding cost of service.
The notorious “ star route” scandals
of some ten years ago, in which the
i present U. S. Senator Elkins, of
West Virginia, was up to his eyes,
showed that the postal revenues
were plundered o f millions annu­
! ally then (as probably ever since)
I that could have been saved by hon­
’ est and economical management
I Taking the “ star route” and railroad
services together, the indications
are strong that, with government
j railroads, the postofficc department,
instead of being some $9,000,000
| behind, would be, at present postal
rates, at least $20,000,000 ahead
annually.
Yet successive post­
master-generals keep up a contin­
uous whine about the deficit which
they claim arise« from carrying
printed matter at a loss, not giving
the least hint of the real cause
therefor.— 8. F. Star.
