Ontario Premier Discusses Political cIeav
aue of North America

age Of North America.
Chicago, Dec. 23.-In an address at. the
University of Chicago yesterday the Hon.;
G.. w. Ross, premier of Ontario, discussed
at length the causes which led to the di-
vision of the North American continent
between the two nations by which it is
now. held.
Speaking of the movement recently in
augurated by Joseph Chamberlain to fed
crate the English colonies on the basis
of imperial protection against the world.
Premier Ross said: 1T requires no argu,
ment to show that the establishment Of
commercial relations within the empire on
the: basis Of preferential tariff would great
ly strengthen the ties which bind all the
colonies, including Canada: to the en-
pire, and remove still further in the back
ground whatever inducements remain for
closer political or commercial relations
with the United States.'
Premier Ross said he did not desire to
leave the impression that the Canadians
looked with aversion upon the American
form Of government and the activity
which this nation had exhibited in every
element Of human enterprise, but cited
many Instances in which Canada had fol-
lowed the lead of the United States great
! ly to it's own ADVANTAGE

of Error Presented for COnsidera-
tiOn. .,-

Washington, Dec. ZS.-Attorney
General Douglas and Messrs. NJ D.
Mum and George b. Wilson have filed
their brief for the state of Minnesota
in it's appeal from the decision Of the
state court in the suit against the
Northern Securities company. 7.
1t is a document of IT'S pages. Its
authors contend that the merger Of
the Northern Pacific and Great North
ern Railroad companies into the
Northern Securities company was for
the purpose Of sitting competition.
After stating that the action was
brought to enjoin the consolidation of
the two railroad companies because
they are parallel and competing lines
within the state of Minnesota, and that
the circuit court Of the United States
for the eighth circuit decided the case
contrary to the contention of the state,
the attorneys present their assignment

Arguing the law points in the case,
they say: ''The acquisition of a ma
jority Of the capital stock Of the Great
Northern and Northern Pacific Rail-
way companies by the Northern Sc
curities company effects as complete
a consolidation of the property and
one had purchased all the property
and franchises of the other"
The attorneys declare that the fact
that these two railway companies have
been consolidated in, and a perpetual
control, secured by. a single corpora
| ton, is not disproved by word Of
! testimony in this case, and add:
The only defense interposed is a
plea that such consolidation was nee

court must bear in mind that sever
