capable of making a fair address. Had
he chosen to speak oniy of the princi

have discretionury power and may
properly arrest any speaker saying
aught calculated to arouse the public to
unlawful action. Socialist speakers
who desire to appeal to the intelligence
and reason of (heir auditors will ever
have a respectful hearing on Corvallis

not need police protection.
