THE U. S. SUPREME COURT AS
SEEN BY REV. J. C. ELLIOT.
17th Fifth St. S. E.. Washington,
D. C. Dear Democrat An interest
ing place to loaf is the supreme court
rouiii. The corooration tax law was
on. Several cases involving practically
the same principles are bunched. the
nine wise judges were in a row on
the bench, all in their gowns, all grey
and all well fed, apparently, except
ludue Day. lie is very bald and very
thin. Jle was appointed from Ohio
and I recall that some then thought
him too great an invalid to take his
beat. Justice Hughes has the most
whiskers, but Justice Holmes has
fiiercc mustache.
The counsel arguing the case against
the corporation tax was a Mr. liver-
ets. He leaned over the table and
talking with the judges tried to estab
1 i kIi this point that corporations are
the creations of the states and are
not to be discriminated against by the
general government nor treated dif
ferently from individuals or partner
shins doing business. I his tax was
a burden on certain nartics doing bus
incss that the state exacted a fee for
their formation but the U. S. is col
lecting a tax and gives no return, ap
oronriatcs and ifivcs no compensation
The counselor was in a place that
tried his nerve. The judges weighed
every word. Chief Justice White in
terriintcd him correcting, but he re
plied with some spirit citing the de
cision of this court White acknowl
edged his mistake gracefully. Soon
on signal a page slipped a law book
to Judge McKenna which he exam
ined and then interrupted and asked
several questions. Then I saw Jus
tice Hughes was uneasy and ordered
a law hook and then shot several
questions which did quite stagger the
counselor. One was, "if you cannot
classify parties can you classify
' things?" Nearly every judge had a
word or point to be explained by the
counsel. I decided 1 should rather
preach and make everybody else keep
still and listen than to try to argue
when any one of the nine trained
critics were liable to speak right out at
any time and expose your ignorance
or your flimsy argument.
' The next counselor had a case that
varied a little. His corporation was
not doing business for which it was
incorporated.' It was merely holding
its real property, collecting rents and
the like. A lawyer may have an in
come from his ' profession and also
from other property. He may retire
from his business and yet retain his
property. The tax on his occupation
would cease upon his retirement. The
law was to tax the business of the
corporation, but is so formed as to
exact a special tax on its property,
therefore, but just then it was 4:30
'. m. and the marshal sprang to his
feet saying, "Hear ye, hear ye, the
court is now adjourned, " and the
judges and all ofliccrs acted as if
school ws gut. J. C. ELLIOTT.
BRYAN'S POLICIES.
W. J. Hryan continues to have ideas
of his own. He says:
The cause and meaning of the
parly's success arc so plain that one I
can hardly mistake them.
j lie iuui-
tcen-vcar hunt for reform is now
hearing fruit. A number of remedial
measures fur which our party has been
contending are already on the eve
nl adoption, and the republican party
is being forced to commend our par
ty's pofic!wt.
J Iho election of senators by the pco
c a reform for which our party has
l.l,..r..,l fur i.iLrliliTii vears will be SC-1
cured soon, possibly through the pres
ent congress certainly through the
next.
The income tax which our party
advocated as far back as 1894 is being
endorsed by the states.
Canuouism is overthrown, and the
next congress will reinstate popular
government in the house of represen
tatives.
And to lilt our party's cup to over-
A, ,;,, the suiireine court, by a unan
imous vote, has just sustained the
bank guaranty laws of Oklahoma,
Kansas and Nebraska, embodying a,
plank of the national platform of
1W8. The opinion silences the objec
tions urged by the financiers to the
system endorsed by our parly. Tariff ;
ri (uriii is now assured; and the ad- ,
ministration is at last forced to adopt
the democratic doctrine that trust
magnates should, on conviction, he
imprisoned and that campaign contri
butions shi'tild be nude public: rail
road regulation i making progress,
and the promise of ultimate indepcud
ence for the l-'ilipinos is not far away.
'e have not only laid the I'oiind.ition
fur allirinativc legislation of great im
portance but our party's victory has
prevented the central hank and a ship
silhsidv.
The' victory tu be celebrated is not
merely the securing of offices but the
suI'Manlial advancement of material
reforms. Our party is dominating the
thought ot liie country ami leading the
forces that tight for remedial legisla
tion. THE COAST WORKING TO
GETHER. The Pacific Coast has shown
did unanimity in its etioit to secu-.c
the Panama canal for San l-'r.iuci-co,
looking upon it as a I'aciiic coast
enterprise, and as well San l-'rancis-eo
a the logical place for the iair.
It mav succeed, though greatly handi
capped, for New Orleans is much
closer the center of population: but
San l-'rancisco has the advantage of
being on this coast, a section that i
to be specially benefited by the great
. anal, and their is a wide feeling that
the P.icilic coast is entitled to the site
of the fair.
SATURDAY NIGHT' THOUGHTS.
Congress has spent another week
without making a mark of much con
cern on the board of time, something
it is used to. Things expected will
not be realized. Iiallinger again came
into the light because ot a long delay
in giving the rcnort of his case, some
thing that should have been done
earlv: but the delay is in keeping with
the Cannon regime. It is now be-
vond exoectation that the present con
gress will accomplish anytning tor
the country.
Oregon's legislature is somewhat
of the same calibre. Three weeks
have passed and so little has been
done the sneaker of the house became
disgusted and remarked, "If we don't
make more nrogress than this we
mitrht as well emit and go home,
which was certainly pungent and
timely advice.
Some bribery cases have been at
tractini? attention. They are of i
good deal of importance because of
their wholesale character., frequently
a man is heard of who sells Ins vote,
but in these cases dozens and hun
dreds have done it, making the of
fense more infamous. The man who
sells his vote gets down to the limit
of degeneration. If there is anything
in the world a man should prize it is
his ballot, and if he barters it for any
consideration he deserves all the ccn
sure that can be heaped upon him. But
the briber is worse, if anything, and
the dictionary has no words too ex
pressive to fit his case.
This week iust a common flying ma
chine carried five men thirteen miles
and back. About the only thing that
can be said of it now is that it was
decidedly foolhardy.
Some fruit men in the valley this
week, representing a big eastern cap
ital investigating conditions here.
have made brighter the prospects
fruit development in this valley. Many
things indicate that the Willamette
will stand beside Rogue River, Hood
River and the other rivers in a very
few years. It makes the valley's
cheek look rosy.
Kicks continue to go up because of
the census not meeting expectations:
but this is ever thus. The average
city before hand claims hftcen
twenty per cent more than it really
has.
Sport of any kind must be on the
square or it loses all its interest.
Crooked officials make a good thing
bad and puts an audience in bad
humor.
SAVE THE BIRDS AND TREES.
There is an organization known as
The Bird and Tree Baud of America
that deserves consideration. Its mis
sion is to help save the song birds
and the forests. It is a great one.
The trees have been the source of
fertility, a strong factor in nature's
handiwork, making the fertile plains
and hills. The factories arc tearing
them to pieces and viciating the
streams with the refuse of their pro
duct, poisoning and destroying the
lish. The places that once conserved
water arc getting hard and barren.
What will happen.
And the birds, their places to nest
and rest arc being taken from them,
and wc depend upon the birds, the
songsters,, for the preservation of the
trees, to destroy the insects, which arc
increasing at such a rate they may
capture the world. Man has been
nuliaiancmg nature, iie'anuum siuy.
The subject is a great one and the
Democrat answers a request to neip
' sound a warning. John Davcy, found-
er of the movement, will travel and
j lecture over the country, but Miss
Anna M. Nutting, of Kent, Ohio, is in
charge of the work and will be glad
I to send literature anywhere in the
U. S,
to those interested, upon appli-
