ATTORNEY GENERAL CHILDS
STANDS BY THE STATE RAIL
ROAD commissioners
IN THE. ADAMS EXPRESS SUIT.
RESPONDENTS BRIEF WAS FILED
YESTERDAY In THE SUPREME
COURT.
JUSTICE NOT TO BE THwARTED
By Any Supposed Infirmity of the
Lnw-Company Must Obey Court
Mandates.

Attorney General Childs has COM
pleted his brief in the case Of the state
board Of railroad and warehouse COM
missioners against the Adams Express
company While the action will ulti-
mately involve the right of the state
board to assume regulative powers
over the rates made by the express
company, the question at issue in the
hearing to come in the supreme court
this week is purely as to the jurisdiction
of the state courts in the premises. The
express company contends that as It's
directors are none Of them residents of
this state, there is no reason why the
state courts should have jurisdiction in
the case. The attorney general con-
tends that the express company, as
common carrier, not only by statute,
but by all authorities, Is subject to
the railroad and warehouse act in the
fullest measure. Mr.. Childs quotes the
law of 1894, which he insists, aims at
the regulation of common carriers with
the least possible delay by technical
forms or practices. A practical adj
ministration and speedy results are
aimed at.
AS to the jurisdiction of the district
court, Mr.. Childs insists that it was
acquired when that court served the
summons in the action on Mr.. Owens,
the agent Of the company. A number
Of decisions are cited as sustaining this
position. The defendant maintains
that the express company is exempt
from the provisions Of the act but the
attorney general is of the opinion that
the legislature has full power not only
to regulate the rates of the defendant
company, but to indicate how it shall
be reached by process of the courts.
He further argues that state authority
is competent to fix the rates of common
carriers in this state, whether or not
the owners or controlees Of the business
reside in this state. IL the rates thus
fixed, are not just and right, the carrier
In question has recourse to the courts
of the state. The attorney general con-
cludes:

such supposed infirmity of the law. I'm

such manner IS to do justice In the premises;
