WILLIST0N tAND0FFICE
BILL UP TO PRESIDENT

Washington, April 19.--The bill
which was introduced in the senate by
Senator Hansbrough and which passed
that body segregating portion of the
Minot land district and creating a new
one to be known as the Williston land
district passed the house. The bill
was called up by Representative GronA
ma. Its provisions were explained by
Chairman Lacey, of the public lands
committee, who stated that the Minot
land district was very large and that
undoubtedly there was necessity for
the proposed district. The bill was
originally in charge of democratic
member of the committee on public
lands. He was Indifferent to the mat
ter, and Gronna, at the request of
Hansbrough, took it up. 1t now goes
to the president for his signature. The
bill creates two positions-that of reg
lister and receiver-and it is said that
the business of the new district,
whose headquarters will be at Willis
ton, will be enough to bring their
salaries to the maximum of three
thousand dollars year. Senators
Hansbrough and McCumber will have
the appointing of these officers.

lakes to Buffalo, thence to New York,
Boston and other American ports.

IF such a project be permitted,
he added, eastern Canada will be
divided from the west by something
more than distance, and it is quite
probable that it will find it's western
trade lost to it altogether"
In Ottawa the Hill forces are gath
ering strength to secure further Iegis-
lation by which the invasion may be
facilitated and made complete, and
the reported presence of Hill lobbyists
in the parliamentary corridors is
causing much speculation as to the
probable outcome of it all. The bare
possibility of Canada losing it's own
western trade, and with it doubtless a
large share of the western market
for Canadian goods, is beginning to
be seriously discussed by politicians.
1t is already held by some that if
after spending millions of money upon
Canadian railways and waterways
the trade Canadians hope for is to
be diverted through American chan.

encouragement in taking up the add.

IMPORTANT RAILROAD CASE
Badger Parkin Cattle Co. Of Mandan Sues N P for Dam.
ages for Delay in Transit Claiming Train
Was Not Run According to Law

An action of considerable interest
to stock men of this state and others
has been instituted by the Badger
Parkin Cattle Co. of Mandan, against
the N. P. r. r. Co. e.."..#..
The action was originally COM
menced in the district court of Nor
ton county, but the defendant r. R.
Co. has transferred the same to the
federal court and the complaint has
been fled with the clerk in this city.
The damages alleged by the plain
tiff are claimed under chapter LA of
the session laws of 1908, which is an
act. regulating transportation of live
stock and makes it the duty of every
railroad to maintain within this state
on all trains transporting live stock,
an average minimum speed of not less
than 20 miles an hour, from the time
such stock Is loaded into the cars
until the train reaches it's destination,
deducting only in the computation of
fsuch average rate of speed, such rea-
sonable time as any such live stock
may be necessarily delayed in unload
ing, to feed, water and j rest. The
statute further provides that every
railroad company violating any of the
provisions of the act shall be liable to
the owner Of the, stock in the sum OF
five dollars per hour for each and
every hour any ear is detained.
The complaint in this case Is a very

Ottawa, April 1S.-The proposed
railway invasion of Canada as plan
need by ]. J. Hill and the present
operations of the American railway
magnate in the Canadian northwest
are causing serious misgivings among
the leaders of public opinion in the
Dominion. What hitherto has been
considered as merely an interesting
side issue in Canadian railway de-
velopment has suddenly come to be
regarded as a grave menace to the
vital interests of Canada in that the
plans of the Hill enterprise involve
no less than the diversion of the trade
of the Canadian west into, foreign
channels and threatening absorption
of that vast country by the United
States.
1t is claimed that Mr.. Hill has in
view the building and operation of a
third transcontinental railway system
through Canadian territory with
which to enlarge his present system
of Pacific railways in the United
States. The statement from Ameri-
can sources that to all intents and
purposes this new line through Canada,
will be as much Canadian as the Great
Northern railway is American, carries
little weight just now on this side of
the boundary. Already the Great
Northern has branches leading up to
the Canadian border all the way from
Winnipeg to the Pacific coast, and it
is believed that it is clearly Mr..
HILLS object to secure access to the
vast prairie region which has been
developed by Canadian money and
enterprise and make it tributary to
the United States, thus contributing
to the greater growth and wealth of
American cities at the expense of
Canada's business centers.
Public Concern Aroused.
Mr.. Hill's letter to- the Winnipeg
board of trade announcing his scheme
for Canadian railway from Winni-
peg to the Pacific followed by the
statement of one OF his officials that
in two months contracts for the con-
struction of 1000 miles of line in the
western provinces will be let, has
aroused public concern here. It is
understood that the eastern half of
this new road will parallel the
Canadian Pacific railway. The west
ern- portion of it will have feeders

cRITicIslNG THE COURTS.

It is not the habit of the American
people to roundly condemn their
judges for their decisions, at least
openly in public. Though justice has
shown her blindness in many cases,
and though the action of the courts
has at times seemed to defeat justice
Instead of assisting it, the habit is to
accept the result with the best, grace
possible. r.
But the president of the United
States has broken this custom, and
has sternly rebuked the action of
Judge Humphrey of Chicago on the
beef trust prosecutions and has called
it a miscarriage of Justice" In his
message to congress of Wednesday
he urges that body to enact legislation
that will give the government the
right to appeal from such decision,
and also to declare itself as to it's in
tent in the premises, and as to wheth-
er it meant that giving testimony as
required by law in trust investigations
should serve to protect the witnesses
and all associated with them from
criminal prosecution.
+ Though the action of the president
is rather unusual, in the opinion of
the Tribune it is justified by the situ-
alton. Nothing so prejudicial to the
/ fight against trust expressions has
happened in years. Congress had
passed law providing for the investi-
cation of trusts, and requiring trust
officials to give evidence in such in
yestigations. Then along comes a
federal judge who declares that, hav-
/: ing given such evidence, they can not
be prosecuted. This, il it stands,
puts an end for the present to the
attempt to punish beef trust officials
for their iniquitous exaetions, not
withstanding the fact that there is
ample evidence of their guilt. -
I While, as stated above, 1t has not
been the habit to criticise the decis.
ions of the courts, there Is no reason
y why they should not be- criticised
There can be no question that a vast
system Of red tape and silly worship
Of precedent and bubble has grown
up in the courts. There Is no cues
I tion, too that this has resulted In
many other "emiscarriages of Justice
The courts have been so intent upon
y preserving the rights Of defendants
particularly il the defendants are
financially equipped to take advantage
85of every technically and to employ
brilliant counsel to split hairs fol-
them, that they have reached tbs

and bag of gold for court expenses
on the side of the accused.
The president means business in
his fight against the beef trust, and
while many will criticise his latest
move no one can make the people be-
lieve that it is not justified. If the
courts wish popular respect, they must
earn it by taking off their hoodwinks
of precedent, technicalities and split
hairs, and look justice squarely in
the face.
