Hill Thinks Ruling, if En- dorsed, Will Be of Advantage to Others Beside the serts That Congress Alone Has the Power to Regulate the Capitaliza-| Carriers—As- tion of Railroads. St. Paul, Sept. 23.—Officials in rail- read circles are well pleased with the recommendation of Judge C. E. Otis in the famous Minnesota rate cases. None would go on record as commend- ing the decision, but the sentiment in the general office buildings was manifest. It was the best piece of news the local railroad officials have veceived for some time. James J. Hill, chairman of the board of directors of the Great Northern, would not say what benefits the rail- roads would derive should Judge Otis’ recommendation be adopted by the courts, but remarked on the bene- fits that the business world generally would obtain. here have been no new enter- prises; ing,” he said. Mr. Hill said that Judge Otis sim- ply defined the limits of state author- ity; what it can do and what it can- not do. "The state can neither take the property away from the railroads nor can it fix rates which concern in- terstate traffic, he said. Congress Alone Has Power. “The states gave congress the right to regulate commerce between the states and they cannot take that right away now,” said Mr. Hill Mr. Hill indicated that the question of federal and state control with re- spect to railroads has been going through an evolutionary period. He pointed out the attempt made a couple of years ago by the state to regulate railroad capitalization. “It was attempted to show that a railroad was worth what it would cost to reproduce it,” said Mr. Hill. “The record shows that the plan had to be abandoned.” ‘While officials are pleased because a concurrence of Judge Otis’ recom- mendation would mean the restoration of the old rates in Minnesota they are particularly pieased because it indi- cates a more favorable attitude to- wards the railroads from any source than has been evident for some years. It is figured by some of the officials that favorable action in the Minne- sota cases would lead the way to fa- vorable determination of the rate cases before the interstate commerce commission. CARROLL SCORES A POINT Cownie Admits Publishing Letter to Injure Governor. Des DMoines, Sept. 23.—Governor Carroll, on trial for alleged criminal libel, won a ‘decided point in the cross-examination of the complaining witness, John Cownie, deposed chair- man of the state board of control. The defense introduced in evidence a communication published in a morn- ing paper by Mr. Cownie, previous to the article by the governor, of which Mr. Cownie now complains. In his article Mr. Cownie made the charge that the governor ‘had played petty politics in his dismissal and stated that he was unfit to be the executive of Towa. This was in the campaign preceding the Republican state pri- mary. When asked if he did not publish this letter purposely to injure the governor’s political chance at the pri- mary he said flatly: “1 did.” Secretary Ballinger Says He Will Go After His Enemies. Denver, Colo,, Sept. 23.—“When I get foot loose from public office, I intend to devote a part of my time to giving to the American people some idea of the purity of the lives of my tra- ducers,” said Secretary of the Interior Richard A. Ballinger at a banquet giv- en in his honor by the Denver Cham- ber of Commerce and the Real Estate Exchange. “The public is entitled to know the hidden springs of inspiration which the people haven't been build- | ¢ Twain and the Rivermen. Mark Twain ouce told to a’ party of friends the following story on himself: On one occasion when he started on a trip down the Mississippi river on a flatboat he was d never to an- swer the questions asked by rivermen on other buiais and never to bandy words with them, as he would be sure always to come out second best, He followed the advice religiously for a time, but one day he thought he saw a chance to get the betrer of a river- man who called out: “Hey. thar. what yer loaded with?" s, Don’t you want to come abo: yelled back Twain. “That's whut i reckoned seein’ as bhow they let ther biggest donkey hev ther run of the deck!" came back.
