some annoyance was felt here owing
to the fate t our commission case
Attornty.Geueral Cul0erson left SAT.

purpose ut representing the state in
the case, and many thought his trip
would De an untruitful one. Such
is nor tue case, however. General
Culb5rsUn was advised OF Justice
JacksOn's absence before he lett here
but The clerk OF the court wrote him
that 1t would be advisable for him to
come up aud be present. at the call OF
the docket. The reason of his appear.
ance at this time is necessitated under
the rules of the court which specifies
that when the docket is called all
cases that are not represented by
counsel personally will be put at the
heel of the special docket. In order
to avoid this and to insure the plac.
ing of the commission case
up near the front of the
list of 25 special cases General Culber-
son went to Washington. 1t has
been agreed by the respective coun.
sells to set March II, as day of sub
mission, if the court will give hear
ing on that day. In case they will
not, then april will have to suffice.
In either case General Culberson's
presence is necessary in Washington
to insure the commission case a stand
ing up near the front of the long list.
In comforting with several prominent
gentlemen on the the matter yester-
day, the general opinion seemed to be
that decision in the commission case
would hardly be given out before
fall even ii it was among the first
cases given a hearing, but in case it
got down near the bottom of that list
OF 25, Lord when will it be heard from?
A general adverse criticism was also

wills IN the Ramsey county district court
OF Minnesota last Monday, declaring the
anti-scalper law of that State unconsti-
tutional the judge said:
This statute must be justified, II at all,
- an exercise Of the police power. This
statute does not declare the selling OF
transportation tickets to be a business
dangerous TO health or morals, nor could
such declaration be sustained. The
legislation aims at the suppression OF
the traffic in transportation tickets except
by privileged class, This favoritism Is re-
pugnant to the entire scope and spirit
OF our State constitution This statute,
by creating special class Of citizens 10
whom alone licenses may be issued, vio-
