One Ground of the Decision.
One of the grounds OF the supreme
courts decision may have omething to do
with such cases if they come up, in the
event that congress passes the proposed
law to evade the Original packages de-
cision. The aforesaid ground is that the
law makes a discrimination against the
products of other states, and in favor OF
those of Minnesota. As TO the police
power of the state to protect its citizens
against unwholesome foods, the court says
it cannot assume, in the absence of proof,
that the people of one state may not rely
upon those of other states to properly in
spect food products, and that the practical
declaration of the Minnesota law that food
products used in all parts of the country,
shall not be sold in Minnesota under the
the same terms is inadmissible.
