SUBSCRIPTION---$5.00 PER ANNUM WILL REVIEW CASE Federal Supreme Court Grants Pe: tition of Minnesota Official. IMPORTANT POINT INVOLVED Question of Respective Jurlsdictlon of State and Federal Courts in Ralil road Rate Litigation a Feature of Pending Suit. Washington, Oct. \ »,—The supreme court of the United States has grant- ed the petition of Edward T. Young, attorney general of Minnesota, for a writ bringing the contempt proceed- ings against Mr. Yeung in connection with the enforcement of the railroad rate law of that state to that court for review and enlarged the scope of the order so as to permit of his admission to ball. He is now under sentence by Judge Lochren of the federal court on the charge of instituting a proceeding in the Minnesota state courts in the face of a prohibition by the federal court. The action of the supreme court will bring the entire subject be- fore that court. The important ques- tion of the respective jurisdictions of the state and federal courts in cases in which state railroad legislation is involved, which has arisen in many states, notably in North Carolina, will necessarily be considered in this suit and it may prove to be a test case along new lines. Government officials, including the members of the interstate commerce commission, regard the case as the first real clash between the state and federal authority on the transportation guestion that has occurred in the United States supreme court.

When chartered under the act cor- porations will be under the super- vision of the secretary of the depart- ment of commerce and labor, who will have access to their books and rec- ords. It prohibits the issuance of stocks In excess of the valuation of the assets of the company, to be de- termined by the secretary of com- merce and labor, VICTIM OF TERRORISTS.

Total Value of Crops as Estimated by Secretary Wilson, ‘Washington, Oct. ' | .—Secretary ot Agriculture Wilson says that the farmers will get more money for their crops this year than they got for those of last year. The total value of all farm products in 1906 was $6,- 7¢4,000,000. This enormous sum not only will mean that there will be no hard tlmes for the country, but that the prosperity which has blessed it for a dozen years will continue, Secretary Wilson is unable to see any danger in the financial situation, belleving it is entirely confined to the speculative element in New York and he is confident that the next few weeks will Rhow that the farm and not ‘Wall street is the real barometer of our financial welfare, Secretary Wilson's confidence that the total wealth produced this year from farm products will be greater than that of last year is based partly upon the fact that there is a scarcity of wheat and other crops abroad and this has contributed to the increase of prices. Crops at home will not be as large probably as those of 1906, except cotton. As Secretary Wilson said, everybody knows the price of meat has gone up, while the output of the packinghouse products has increased. Killed in Automobile Wreck. Chicago, Oct. ).—James Reddick, chalrman of the Republican county central committee and public admin- istrator, was instantly killed by the overturning of an automobile in which he was riding near Libertyville.

Cudahy of the Cudahy Packing com- pany expressed the belief that the prices of all commodities would be materfally reduced and that the pres- ent financial flurry would result in a general reduction in values, although he does not consider conditions seri- ous. Dr. Gillette Sentenced. New York, Oct. %).—A sentence of six months in the penitentiary has been imposed by Justice Dowling upen Dr. Walter E. Gillette, former vice president of the Mutual Life Insur- ance company, Who was convicted of perjury.

Bishop of London Tells of His Trip to America. London, Oct. , .—The bishop of London, in his sermon Sunday at the Church of the Holy Trinity, said there were several lessons he had brought back from America. “There is far greater generosity, love and trust between different bod: {es of Christians and between schools of thought in the same church in America than here in England,” said Dr. Ingram. “It was like golng into another at- mosphere to pass from the wrangles of Great Britain into an atmosphere ‘where they are unknown. “It was a great lesson to be present at the general convention of the churches in the United States; highly instructive to see a millionaire from ‘Wall street sitting side by side with a workingman, both representing New York. It was true democracy. .. “There are no parlor cars in the American church “And then,” what services we had out there, Talk of lively services, Talk of mechanical ritual. Why, 1 have heard the rafters shake with praise and there was no sneaking home afterward dispirited and dis- couraged.” Sealed Orders. The custom of having warships sall under sealed orders arose from the de- sire of maritime powers to prevent the plans from becoming known to the enemy. In the American navy such orders comq from the president and are delivered to a commander of a ship or squadron by a confidentlal messen. ger who knows nothing of their con: tents. Sometimes they are in cipher, but they are always sealed with the official seal of the navy department and the package cannot be opened un- til the time marked on it, which fs usually several hours after the hour of leaving port. By this precaution the mnewspapers are prevented from disclosing prematurely the movements which may be of the greatest impor- tance, and the spies of the enemy are rendered useless so far as thelr abil- ity to discover the secret of such movements is concerned. Sailing un- der sealed orders is now the common naval practice in time of war. These Instructions are found in the packet of sealed orders, which is opened when well out at sea. A Runaway River. The problem and the peril of the Colo- rado river are not difficult to under- stand. A great river running slowly on a ridge of its own creating, run- ning in a broad and tortuous channel, choked with islands of mud and bars of sediment, running with a fall of only one foot to the mile, while to the north and west lay a vast depression below sea level and inviting the slug- glsh river to a swifter flow; between this sunken area and the uncertain course of the river a great garden of Eden in promise and potency, needing only to be watered and kept, then n} canal tapping the river, a flood gather- ing at the far away sources, a breach in the unprotected bank and the whole volume of the river, forsaking its ancient and outgrown bed and rushing | into that pit in the desert, sweeping In its course through miles of fertile farms and cutting canyons where canals had been—this is an outline of | the situation and a hint of the peril.— A. J. Wells in Sunset Magazine. { ALL TIRED OUT, | Hundreds More in Bemidji in the Same Plight.
