: City Attorney Healy.


City officials are often criticized for
doing nothing and It is too often just
criticism. It's application should not,
however. blind the public to the duty
Of giving credit where credit is due.
In the decision Of the supreme court on
the railroad bridge matter the point
is illustrated. City Attorney Healy
ably argued. that case. The favorable
decision means millions of dollars to
the city in it's history and thousands Of
dollars immediately. The same ability
and industry applied with as happy re-
suits to the interests Of private cor
poration would bring an attorney largo
emoluments. The city attorney will
get only his former salary. He has
compensation in the consciousness Of
having exercised his best powers in
behalf Of his fellow citizens. He is en-
titled in addition to the public recogni-
ton which is here given. ''''''. 5. y

One Of the most important decisions
In the history of the supreme court Of
Minnesota was that handed down yes
terday in the appeal of the city in the
matter of the construction Of bridge
across the tracks Of the Great Northern
railroad at Twenty-ninth avenue NE.
This decision sweeps away The hither-
TO accepted burden Of the community
TO bear the cost Of bridges over tracks
which antedate the opening Of the
streets across them. In the district
court Judge Holt held with the rail
roads that such a burden was on the
city and dismissed the complaint. The
supreme court reverses his decision and
remands the matter for retrial and In
cidentally lays, down the principles to
be followed in such a manner that there,
can be no doubt Of the outcome Of such
cases in the future. - -
The SUI reme court, in brief, decides
that the railroad company accepted it's
charter with a provision that it would
keep highways crossing Its right Of
way in such state Of repair as not
to interfere. with their free and proper
use. City Attorney Healy, In his argu-
ment, commended that the railroad IS
duty was the same at all times; that its
priority in the matter Of time was I'm
material; that the provision Of its char
ter applied to streets laid out across
the railroad after, it's construction as
well as before; that the city could not
contract away its police power to en-
force the rights: Of ! thespubic;S that
the bridge demanded. was merely q
safety device differing in.construction,
but not in principle, from a gate. zs@s
The court upholtls him on every point
raised and adds that neither The State
nor any subdivision thereof can by
affirmative aetiona.or BY inaction per
manently divest itself of the authority
and power to exercise it's police rights
and duties.
The larger aspect Of the case Is in its
influence On the general grade crossing
problem. The proceedings in the coun.
Gil have halted while this matter was
In the supreme court, but now that the
law is laid down it becomes the duty
Of the city council to press for an ar
rangement which will be adequate fol-
the protection of the public, without
having to face the proposition thai
nothing can be done because Of the bur
den Of bonds involved in building the
necessary bridges over streets opened
subsequently to the railroad. The de
cision will, no doubt, make a differenc.
in the railroad attitude toward TIL
problem: too. If the railroads mus
pay for. all bridges, they will have t,
be shown the necessity in each case
This will be but a matter Of gathering
competent evidence and presenting i
d. to the court. The grade crossing prob
lem is put in the way Of solution +.

Saloons and School Buildings.

The city council was busy last night
It transacted a large amount Of .rou-
tine work and started some matters Of
general interest. Among the latter was
the Recommendation in favor of the
purchase Of a municipal stonecrusher,
5thei opening Of bids for voting ma
chimes, the action regarding saloons in
proximity to school buildings and the
movement to repeal the Duryea ordi-
nance regarding additions.
The latter has been asked by the
Real Estate board, which feels that
the ordinance may tend to retard the
healthy growth Of the real estate mar Tar
ket by imposing an unnecessary bur-
den upon the plating Of additions.
There are good features in the Duryea
ordinance. It should not be abandoned
entirely, Tho, as The Journ a !
stated before, it appears to have been
passe z,without sufficient notice to the
men most interested in its working and
may be susceptible Of considerable
modification with profit to the city.
s The, refusal to grant a new license
to a saloon which is now within 400
feet Of the Blaine school was followed
by notice of an amendment to the
ordinance reducing the distance to 200
feet. Such an ordinance ought not to
pass, even tho some hardship may be
worked against saloonkeepers by the
building of schools subsequent to the
location of saloons. The saloons are
established subject tosIthe general in
Formations that schools may be located
within 400 feet Of them. There is
nothing in the ordinance to prevent the
school board from doing this, but there
lis an implied expectation that If this

1t is not intended or expected that
the ordinance shall work frequent hard
ships upon saloon men. and it does not,
because school buildings are not often
built in districts where either saloon
or mercantile businesses are already
gcentered.
The remote exception ought not to
influence the council to destroy neces-
,sary ordinance. To reduce the distance
to 200 feet would destroy the ordinance.

II Toledo, Ohio, June 80-Baffed in
every attempt to- secure suspension
OF the prison sentence, and, as the judge
said, driven to desperation, the attor-
neys for the officers Of the HygeialIc
company filed in common pleas court
promises the biggest sensation ever
known in this city, even surprising
the sentencing Of the Ice men by Judge
Kinkade last Monday. s%Ff3sSsE II

pend the sentences offthe ice barons.
They also charged the court with col
fusion, corruption and misconduct,
After reciting that the motion is re-
que apestsd first because Of teehaicalities
Judgment, as imposed by the court,
was excessive and ;, not warranted by
the facts; that the Judgment Of the
court was based upon issues which were
not, and had not been, tried, and upon
facts as to which the court had in
vited and received the professional
