INJUNCTION AND CONTEMPt COURT. OP President Roosevelt, In his regular message to Congress, referred to the abuse of the writ of Injunction that baa grown up of late years, apd he warned the courts that unless they became more Just In their use of that power, the people would take from them all power to apply such a remedy at law. The Denver News cites a case which It strongly condemns and, In condemning, reviews the history of hTe article ia an able oue and is as follows: Judge Morrow of the federal circuit court of the district of California and Nevada baa Issued a writ which Is likely to bring up the subject of government by Injunction In bitterer debate than ever. By the terms or thi writ the miners of Goldfield. Ner., are enjoined (mm stealing ore. and fifty watchers, officers of the court, are appointed. with power to go Into any mine at any time and to search any miner suspected of having high grade ore in Its possession. The of ore, or the resistance to search, thus becomes contempt at court; and the miner who la guthy of either, or who. in the old inquisitorial phrase, is he will vehemently suspected." brought to San Francisco to be punished by the enjoining Judge. The News holds no brief in defence of ore stealing. It Is a crime, and should be punished aa surh. Neither is the News In sympathy with those who demand the abolition of the writ of injunction altogether, and denounce every use of It as tyranny. Hut the News does believe that of oil the instruments of law. the writ of Injunction has of late been the most frequently and viciously abused; and never more than In this la'est action of Judge Morrow. The writ of Injunction l one nr the oldest and' best known of writs. It wjs imported ino English isw from ttip Homan law. ln both It had s well debited sphere of action: The prater. ot civil rights against threatened It was not applied to rrlroe. It. sv : not used to maintain persona! aiL-tt-l,- . liberty. In rbe one case, the criminal law. and iu thv other the greater of all the writs, that of habeas corpu-- . were relied on to protect ti.e weal, against the strong; or to assert the supremacy f the state over the de- l forces seeking in impair or stroy it. As such, the writ of injnn---tiowas known in England at the iiuis-thfrom the Colonies broke swa mother county; and a such it was adopt nd tnio our jurisprudence But the last twenty .teats have changed all thia.. The writ of Injunction has been extended nd enlarge until It has gained a power never eon lemplated by the founders of our The writ has invaded two fieida where it has no maimer of business. It has entered the field of the criminal law. The Injunction of Judge Morrow ia but the mot drastic of a long series of injunctions, which have in effect serkiualy llndiefl the right of trial by Jury'- - Tiie proceeding in contempt cases are summary, and are not, in any practical aense. subject to review. They are proceedings which our ancestors centuries ago saw could not be applied to the punishment of crime, without Jeopardising the lives and liberties of those who had no ayiupathy wlth criminal. The continental nations of Eutope have testified to the wisdom of the surly old Ssxona by adopting the trial by Jury wherever liberty has made any subaunt lal programs. Yet the Injunction just quoted does away with all thia. It enjoins a crime, and substitutes fur the orderly processes of the rrimlnal law a proceeding aa summary as that of any Turkish pasha. far aa the writ of the functions of injunction has the criminal law. the difference between the adntinisi ration of Justice In America and in Yemen Is a difference In traditions and alone. The procedure la substantially the same. Aad perhaps a greater evil thaa the interference with the criminal law. Certainly an evil mere quickly brought hone to the law abiding cHiien, ia the use of the writ of injunction to weaken the writ of habeas corpus. Few person are aware bow far thia has gone. When a person haa been puniahed for contempt of court he haa no redress If the court which punished him had jurisdiction In tha case. The superior courts will nut, cannot under our present a.vateni. Inquire Into the merits of the controversy which haa resulted In the Imprisonment of the. petitioner brought before them. The man who haa violated an Injunction, no mutter how outrageous that Injunction may be, la at the mercy of the man who U least fit to try tba case the offended Judge. He him no appeal, no escape. An excellent Instance of how far this usurpation may go la to be found In the ticket Ivrokera' case In Colorado, where Judge Dixon usurped the function of a legislature, wiped out of existence thousands of dollara' worth of property, created a new crime, which he ahitie could pass up; ami In the upholding of these, prepoeterjua claims, sent several persona to Jail. Surely one dues not nead to be a ympainlxer with lawlessness to oppose, and bitterly oppose, such highhanded usurpation. The function of the writ of injunction has been reverted. From being an Instrument for the protection of the weak against the strong. It has become an Instrument for legalising and extending the tyranny of the strong over the weak. It does not help the matter to say that only the breakers of the law notxl fear It. No law, no usurpation, no enmity at the most outrageous tyrant waa ever directed against men whom their opponents would acknowledge to he without blame. The man marked out few destruction Is always given a had n me. Hut tyranny over the rrimlnal very soon and very easily becomes tyranny over those who hsve committed no crima. and so the sbuse goes on growing, until often nothing but revolution can loosen It from the grip It has sained on the state. ami-socia- VALUE COPPER.

In the year 1835 Francisco Marty, who waa then the leader of a band of pirates which Infested the island of Cuba and who had a price of $10,000 on hla head, was raptured and ordered to be put to death. Seeing there, was no hope for him he asked to see General Tacon, who waa then governor-generof Havana. and told him if hia life waa spared he would denounce hla entire band and assist him in ridding the island cf a number of pirates which Infested It at that period. Accordingly General Tacon gave him two weeks' parole and Inside of a week Marty had denounced hia fellow pirates and turned. them over to the government. For that service he was pardoned. In 1836 Marty asked for the concessions to bu.ld a national theater on the site of Parque Central. It was granted to him. General Tacon went furtbet and allowed him the privilege of the use of forty convicts who weru then confined In Morre castle to assist him in the work, each convict receiving the sum of 20 cents a way. In 1838 the theater waa finished and Marty, at. proof of tha gratitude he felt toward General Taonn for sparing hla life, named It El Teatro Tacon. Dudiug the Insurrection In Cuba many exciting Incidents took place there. In one Instance a regiment of Cuban insurgents barricaded themselves in the theater Ymd held it against the Spaniards for three days. Finally they were starved out and as they were making their escape all were shot. The theater la built of while stone with decorations of marble and faring Central park, being In the center of the fashionable district of Havana. It la one of the largest theaters In the world, seating over 1,000 persona Cuban Review. BOTH PHONES 177 2344 Washington Avenue. al Washington, Dee. 26.
