DID MR.. TURPIE WRITE 1T?
Attorney-General's Brief in the Appor-
ti0nment Case Reads Like Ii.
1t Is Not Remarkable for lis Succineiness-
Criminal Court Matiers-Damage suit in
the Federal C~ourt-0ther Cases.

Attorney. general Smith yesterday filed
his brief IN the Supreme Court. in the case
of Benjamin S. Parker ct al. VS.. State of In
diana ex rel. Simon I. Powell, otherwise
known as the gerrymander suit. The ar
Rument follows the lines of Senator Tur-
pies speech, and the brief evidently had
his guidinR-hand in it's preparation. The
Attorney. general holds that the act of ap-
portIonment is a political discretion
of the Legislature. not subject to
judicial review. unless the Constltu-
tion be grossly and clearly violated" He
contends that the representative and sena-
torial apportionment shouId not be taken
separately. as was lone in the compl Amt,
but with q view to their in tercompensatory
force. Contiguity and not equality. the
brief says. was made the basis of appor-
tionment by the Constitution. lnequali-
ties are inevitable and have always been
found in every apportionmsnt law. Moth
ing is said in the Constitution or in any
statute providing for the disposition of
fractions of population. The Attorney-gen-
eral holds that the language OF the Michigan
and Wisconsin Supreme Courts declaring
that the apportlonrnents IN those States
were unjust and unequal were only COM
ments. and that there is no case In which
the court has interfered with an apportion-
ment act upon account of the abuse of Leg
~islative discretion in grouping counties, or
In omItting OF providing for the represen-
tation of fractions OF the ratio. The brief
also treats of jurisdiction. and makes an
argument to prove that the discretion
lodged in the Legislature in apportion-
ment cases. not violating express limita-
tions, is absolute and uncontrollable. The
brief closes with an analysis OF each ap-
portionment since 1851.

Jndea Taxlor,s Decision.

The decision of judge Taylor in the
Baker-Lanktree mechanics lien case has
caused considerable comment among attor-
neys, and somewhat disturbed the equi-
librium of contractors and material men.
The Judge was quoted as having decided
that q lien would not attach under the
statute for material furnished in the con-
struction of walks, wells. cisterns, etc.
This is erroneous. The only ques-
ton before the court for settle
ment was as to whether. un-
der the statute. q lien could properly
attach to premises on account of brick
furnished which were used in the con-
struction of walks upon the premises.
The Judge held that it could not. The de-
ossion was based upon the construction of
the words and other structures" con-
tanned in the statute and holds that a walk
10 not q structure" within the meaning of
the statute.

The Fertie Divorce Case.

Judge Bartholomew was occupied the
greater portion of the day yesterday with
the Fertig divorce case. The evidence thus
far introduced shows that at the time of
their marriage MIR. Fertig owned Q farm of
forty acres in Hancock county. and that
subsequently, al additional sixty acres was
purchased, Mrs. Fertig furnishing 5000 of
her own money for the purpose. She testi-
fed that the management of the
farm devOlved upon her almost entirely;
that her husband paid no attention
whatever to, the stock. and said that she
had taken q son and gone to the woods and
labored all day pushing n cross-cut saw
through timber. The Fertigs have made
two bitches at married life. having
separated once without either applying for
q divorce. They were afterwards recon
ciled, but now want the court TO sever the
tie that binds them to one another.

MORE RATE DISTURBANCES
The Columbus, Hooking Valley & Toledo
Road Making Trouble for Competitors.
Passenger Fares from Toledo to Kansas City
slashed-New Form of Pool Proposed
BY Managers Of Western Lines

Western roads are somewhat disturbed
by the fact that the Columbus, Hooking
Valley * Toledo road is quoting q first
class rate of $3.50 and q ~second-class rate
of s12.5O from Toledo to Kansas City by
way of Chicago. ~Vlce-chairman Donald,
of the Central Traffic Association. has re-
piled TO queries in regard to the trouble as
follows: 1--WE nave official information
that the Columbus. Hooking Valley IL To-
ledo is using blanket rates, covering It's
lines and the Scioto division of the Norfolk
& Western Railroad Company, OF
$3.50 frst-class and s1250 second
class to lower Missouri river points.
The reductions are. seemingly. the result
of the extension into the territory of the
scioto Valley line of the rate contentious
for some time exSting among the members
OF the Ohio-river Traffic Association. The
Baltimore q Ohio company, We are sd-
vised. has made effective from points in
volved on their lines rates 81 higher than
those quoted by the Hooking Valley and
the Norfolk & Western. Indications are
that the situation will continue until exist
Ing differences between the Ohlo-rIver
lines are adjusted" A conference Will be
held by the representatives OF the western
roads
Object of the Atchison's Threat.
It is generally believed that the action
of the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe road
in threatening to withdraw from the West
ern Passenger Association unless south
western Missouri river business is exempted
from the agreement, Will have the desired
effect. OF course the desired effect Is q re-
organization of the association, with all
the important roads in the territory as
members. Other companies beside the At
Gibson are of the opinion that the tim has
come for q reorganization. The Chicago q
Alton, one of the strongest roads competing
for Sc. Louis anu Kansas City business. Is
at present an outside line. 1t wa read ont
of the association by Chairman Finley:
whose rulings it declared to be unjust and
unauthorized. There Is no doubt that the
Alton would like TO join with Its Compel
tiers In an agreement to maintain rates.
but to return to the association would be
equivalent to q confession that 1t was
wrong in the Finley controversy. and. be-
sides, would necessitate the payment OF q
heavy fine i'm posed upon 1t at that time.
The Alton management has no intention OF
placing itself IN such q position. II the as
ISOLATION were re0rganIzed 1t could become
member without in the least compromis-
ing It's dignity, and this it is quite willing
90 do.
