when fairly interpreted, will bear

aimed to destroy the power to place

HAS THE RIGHT.
Congress May Legislate Against Trusts
Says the Appellate Court.

Speaking of the rights OF con-
gress to enact legislation against
trusts, or combinations in restraint
of trade, the appellate court of the
United States, rendering the de-
cision in the merger case, says:
We think the provision regarding
the liberty of the citizens is to some
extent limited by the commerce
clause of the constitution and that
the power of congress to regulate
interstate commerce comprises the

The Dreyfus case is about to be
reopened in France. In case the
re-opening occurs the case should
be kept open until the captain re-
celves complete exoneration. Never
was there any army officer. or a
private in any army, more perse-
cuted than this fellow who was SO
long imprisoned in solitary confine-
ment on DEVILS Island, and the
sooner France gives him justice the
sooner will the nation regain some
of the esteem which it has lost in
the opinions of other nations.

CURED; and the government may
intervene and demand relief as well
after the combination is fully or
gained as while it is in process of
formation. In this instance, as we
have already said, the Securities
company made itself a party to a
4 combination in restraint OF inter
state commerce that ante-dated its
organization. as soon as it came into
existence, doing so of course under
the direction of the very individuals
who prompted it.

right to enact law prohibiting the
citizens from entering into those
private contracts which directly,
and substantially, and not merely
indirectly, remotely, incidentally
and collaterally regulate to a great
er or less degree commerce among
the States, We cannot so enlarge
the scope of the language of the
constitution regarding the liberty
of the citizen as to hold that it in
cludes or that it was intended to
include a right to make a contract
which in fact restrained and regu-
lated interstate commerce notWith
standing congress, proceeding un-
der the constitutional provision
giving to it the power to regulate
that commerce, had prohibited such
contracts. These observations as
a matter of course, preclude further
controversy over the power of con
gresS to limit to some extent the
right to make contracts when en-
acting laws for the regulation of
commerce between the States.
Learned counsel for the defend
ants further contend as follows;
That the antitrust act was not in
tended to include or prohibit com
binations looking to the virtual con-
solidation of parallel and competing
lines of railroad. although such a
combination operates to stif1e com
petition: that no relief can be grant
ed to the government in this in
stance because the combination or
conspiracy of which it complains
has accomplished its purpose, to
wit the organization Of the Securi-
ties company and the Judgment Of
the majority of the stock of the two
railroads in its hands before the
bill was filed; and finally that the
combination proven was one formed
in aid of commerce and not to re-
strain it; in other words, that t
was one formed to enlarge the vol
ume of interstate traffic and thus
benefit the public.
The court cannot assent to either
OF these propositions. The first,
we think it clearly untenable, for
the reason already stated and fully
disclosed in the decisions hereto
fore cited. Concerning the second
contention, we observe that it would
be novel, not to say absurd, inter
probation of the antitrust act to
hold that after an unlawful combi-
nation is formed and has acquired
the power which it has no right to
acquire, namely, to restrain COM
merce by suppressing competition

will hereafter refuse to enter into
any agreement whereby their in
situations, and two or three others,
will be removed from the control OF
the board. That much good will it
accomplish, and this certainly is
very good. At the same time it has
been a lesson to the university re-
gents and to the local normal school
boards that business is business,
and that those institutions must be
run on that basis in the future.
In addition to this it can be stated
that it is only a question of time
when the normal schools OF this
State will be reduced to three, or
wiped out entirely, and normal
departments placed in every high
school. Senator Schultz S bill to
this effect advanced we'll before It

The Northern Securities company
officials state that the merger de-
cision will be appealed from the APP
pellate court to the United States
Supreme court. In view of the fact
that the appellate court of four
Judges, composed of some OF the
best jurists in the United States,
was unanimous in its decision, ard
knocked out every contention set
up by the attorneys for the North
ern Securities Co., there is little
likelihood that the United States
Supreme court will reverse the de-
cision, and no one knows this any
better than the able gentlemen of
counsel for the Northern Securities
Co. No, it is clean knock out, and
while the Securities Co. may spar a
few months longer for time we still
believe that the case will never be
finally passed upon by the court of
last resort in this union.
