Two recent dcclsons have been made, and arithln a few duys of each other, which are baaed upon the tame eternal principle of Justice, between man and nan, and which nrfll do much to clear up the confusion existing in the popular ml ml concerning- the respective rights of employer and employe. The first of these la the verdict awarded to Fred H. Ketch am In a Chicago court, of dom ages aiwinst tha Northwestern railroad for blacklisting him. The other decision was that of the United Stafee court of appeals In the ninth district, in the cm of a Arm of employers 4gun a coopers' union in Kansas City. The question involved was the right of a labor organlaxilon to strike against the substitution of machinery for hand labor, and the institution of a gen eral boycott against the firm In order to compel It to yield. The majority of wie court two judges held that the company Is entitled to an injunction against the coopers, restraining ahem from injuring' Its business. The third Judge Caldwell dlwented, hie contention being that boycotting. If peaceable and orderly, to admissible; that there is but one limitation upon the em-ploytae-it of the boycot t the observance df the taw. Thta is clearly begging the question, for the very point at Issue was whether boycotting IweK Is lawful. Judge Caldwell says that labor haa no other effective means of, resistance than strike and boycott. That, however, Is not perti nent. Even if it iwere a fact A at there were no other methods; this does cot prove that these methods are just, or proper, or admissible. The blacklist and the boycott belong In fn the same category. Both are unfair and unjust interferences with the proper liberty of the individual. One is as bad as the other. Each is organized tyranny. If the Northwest, a railroad company desired to dispense with the services of Ketcham, k had than right; but .1 had so right to put his name on a blacklist, and so prevent him from obtaining em ployment etsewhere. And the Kanea. Cfty coopers had no more right to boy cott the firm which refused to yield to their demand to throw out machinery. Eugene V. Pens aeserud, in a recent speech In Cleveland, that the decision was to have been expected that, the court of appeals should declare the boycott il legal, but that no count iwouid ever de clare the blacklist Illegal. No demagogue was ever answered more promptly by the logic of events. The boycott is not only pronounced illegal, but the man who suf fered has bn awarded very (heavy dam a?. The Chicago decision will silence much of the cry of agitators that poor men have no dhance in the courts when pitted against corporations wid wealth. AUSTRIA'S DIFFICULT1E.S. I The scene which took place In the loer house of the Austrian reichsrath on lajtt Wednesday, la full of nlgnllieance, tays the Philadelphia Tim. It meant more than a mere disagreement over a -bill that baa been discussed in good temper scores f times In the last ten years, and Indi cated how strong the feeling is among tha varied races nvthlch form the empire. The turbulence broke forth over a reso lution that only one'of a number of elm- Oar petitttone against the ordinance co ordinating the Czech language with the German In. Bohemia should be printed. It was obviously the Intention of the gov ernment to centralize the "whole question, and tf posHible to defeat It on one Issue. The tumult then began and soon outran w limit it could have reached over the auminal cause. The anti-Semitic feeling look form against Dr. Albrahemovlos, president of the chamber, who was forced to retire, and other feuds -were joined, so fliat, personal attacks were made, and epithets were appllod with a freedom that would disgrace some of the convention floors of our own couritry. In time the tro'Ala ti'aii laid, and yudcrda? the mem ber of the left tWlared their regret and referred the matter to a local arxl tem porary excitement. That will hardly serve to explain the utbreaV. It erot-e from a feverish na- tlonal condition, the. natural result of bringing race under one nwwnmi'iil that ae nut and cannot live In harmony. The great popularity of UV emperor, Fran. Jkasef, haa been the bond that has held the Csecb,v the S'.hv, the Jew, the Mag yar, the role. I tali ui, Tyrr-lese and Mon tenegrin together. Austria h.-.s sought to divert attention from th.w embittered rivalries, by bullying the Turk. ns In recent Instances, by f.ir-rcHehng schmh-ei of col li J onlxntion, by educational propositions looking toward the Improvement o.' t!;c i beopSc. but thvee kind sill other efforts have only provoked antn'mlHnia and fur-1 nifhixl opportunity for the different par-1 tcs to give cxprv.-w 1 on to their vc and! to define their attitude toward the Im tvrlnl govenuneiw.

A man's health Is the rope by which he climbs to success. If he can keep his health, he will go on to success. Tet his health Is the very thins he neglects more than a iythtrr else. It is eat r !to keep health than It Is to reciln It. tThen a man feels himself ntnnlne down, when he ivalixea .a Jo.-i of vitality and -nenry, he must call a halt.
