BEARING FRUIT.

| When Gov. VanSant ordered the
attorney-general of this State to
commence an action to prevent the
merging of the Burlington, Great
Northern and Northern Pacific
! railroads there was a loud howl of
ridicule from the monied interests
of Wall streets and from certain
sources in this '.State, political as
| well as railroad, declaring that the
Governor was an obscurity who was
seeking to make cheap political cap
ital out Of the business transaction
| which the courts of the United
States could not prevent.
That the sGovernor was never
more serious in his life than when
he commenced the action to pre-:
vent these great railroad corpora
tions from violating two or three
seetions'of the laws of this State.
is now conceded by even the most
bitter enemies of the administra-
ton.
But his action now is joined with
a stronger force-no less than that
of the United States. PresidehtI
Roosevelt having directed the at
torney general of his cabinet to com
mence proceedings in some United
States district court, probably in
Minnesota, to prevent the compan-
les from consolidating, on the
ground that the consolidation was
iu violation of the laws of the United
States: and particularly the Sher-
man antitrust law of 1890.
1t will thus be seen that no mat
ter what may come ,to the action
ordered commenced by Gov. Van
SAINT, and which was commenced in
the United States Supreme Court.
stronger and more tpotent force is
now at work to prevent the consoli-
dation, and as result of that force
the stock of the Northern Securities
Co.. the merger corporation. has
been declining in value.S Gov. Van
SAINT is entitled to the credit OF all
this crystallization of preventive
force, flor had he not ordered tie
suit at the outset the matter would
never have been brought to the at
tention of the President, and hence
no other action would have been
commenced.
For this action Gov. VanSant
will be fought ibitterly by certain
interests this fall. It will be the
