HILL ANTICIPATED IT.
Decision of Supreme Court Just as He
Expected.

Expected.
New York, March 29.-"The de-
cision of the Minnesota supreme court
was no more than | expected" said
]. J. Hill, when he was informed that
the supreme court had upheld the
Great Northern stock issue. For ff-
teen years We had been doing the
same, thing with never any serious
opposition from the authorities of that
state''
The four deferred payments or in
stallments on new Great Northern
stock will amount to $24,000,000 by
April 9 next. AS the payment of so
large a sum at this time might create
some disturbance in the money mar
ket 1t is believed that stockholders,
who may find it inconvenient to pay
the full installments, will be granted
an extension of time.

Believes Canal Can Be Completed in
Five Years.

Kansas City, March 29.-Represen-

Gently returned from a trip to the

THE peopAa on the isthmus believe
that the Panama canal can and will
be finished in about five years. It's
plausible. | don't say that the work
will be done within that length Of
time, but at the rate the digging is
being carried on now I believe it
could be. It certainly will not take a
much longer time than five years."

EXAMINATION OF THAW
LUNACY COMMISSION TAKES UP
TASK OF PASSING ON HIS
MENTAL CONDITION.
NEARING OF WITNESSES POSTPONED
FIRST WORK OF THE BOARD BE-
GUN WITH COUNSEL ALONE
I'm ATTENDANCE.

New YORK, March 29.-The commlS-
sion in lunacy appointed by Justice
Fitzgerald of the supreme court to
inquire into the present mental condi-
tion of Harry K. Thaw held it's first
public session in the courtroom where
the Tl4FWs trial has been in progress
since Jan. 49, The commissioners took
their places on the judges bench
shortly after z p. m. David Mcclure,
the chairman of the commission, sat
in the center, with Peter B. Olney on
his right and DR.. Leopold Putzel on
his left.
Thaw was brought before the COM
mission Immediately and took a place
directly in front Of and facing the
commissioners. He was accompanied
by all of his counsel. District Attor-
ney Jerome and Assistant District At
torney Garvan were present.
Evelyn Nesbit Thaw was present,
as were the defendants brothers,
Josiah and Edward Thaw..
The proceedings were formally
order appointing the commission.
Clifford w. Hartridge acted as
senior counsel before the commission.
He announced that Thaw was ready
at any time to submit to personal
examination by the commission, but
suggested that it be private and be
confined solely to the present state OF
his mind.
Mr.. Hartridge reminded the COM
missjoners that Thaw is on trial for
his life and that it would not be fair
TO him to have his examination made
public.
Physical Examination Private.
Mr.. Jerome said he had no desire to
attend a medical examination of the
prisoner if the commission desired to
make one by themselves. Chairman
Mcclure then announced that any
mental or physical examination of
Thaw would be private, only the COM
missioners, the defendant and counsel
being permitted to be present.
Chairman, Mcclure added that he
did not think an elaborate physical
examination would be deemed neces-
sary. The commission's observation
of the defendant at his mental exam
cient.
When District Attorney Jerome was
asked if he was ready to proceed he
declared that he was not. His med
ical advisers were not present, he ex-
planned.
Commissioner Olney interrupted Mr..
Jerome to ask if he had any objec-
tion to the commission proceeding
forthwith to examine Thaw Il have
no objection he replied, provided
my examination Of the defend
ant may be postponed until | can con-
suit with my medical advisers"
I'VE will arrange as to that when
we come to it." said Chairman Nc
Clure.
The courtroom was cleared of all
persons except the commission, the
defendant and his counsel and the dis
trict attorney and his assistant and
the examination of Tb. was taken
up in executive session.

The present session is characterized
chiefly by lot of legislative investi-
cations. If things don't break loose
in the meantime we shall attempt
next week to tell what some of these
investigating committees haven't done

1t is notable fact that the real ac-
tive reform workers are without ex-
ception members who pay their own
railroad fare. 1t was La Follette's ex-
perience in Wisconsin that no relief
from railroad rule was possible until
legislators could no longer legally ac-
cept passes. A pocket full of these
favors from the corporations is a
heavy handicap for a lawgiver. No
man can enter into reform move
ment with any zeal or real interest
unless he is absolutely independent in
this respect.

Nebraska has set a good example
for the north star state. The legisla-
ture of that commonwealth has this
winter enacted number of railroad
reforms, among them being two
cent fare bill, an anti-pass law and a
law providing for an average reduc-
ton in freight rates of fifteen per
cent.
Morris tribune. [volume] (Morris, Minn.) 1880-2000, 1907-03-30

Assuming that the House manipula-
tors will be able to maintain their po-
sition ON the lid, our legislature will
not provide for any of these reforms.
The present prospect reveals only a
deal with the railroad interests where
by the passenger fare will be fixed at
two and one half cents and the freight
rates reduced as ordered by the rail-
road and warehouse commission. This
compromise" would be great rail-
road victory and the public would so
understand it.

Summary Of Ebents as They Happen

by appearing in this country year
ago with Nine. Andreieva, Russian
actress whom he introduced as "Mme.
Gorky." Gorky left his first wife,
who had borne him two children,
three years previously.
Both parents agreed that they did
not love each other any longer. Cor
ky announced that the separation was
without bitterness. He agreed to
provide for his wife and children.
Gorky's description Of married incom-
patibility is contained in the follow
ing paragraph from "Orlof and His
Wife" novel written by Gorky
shortly before his separation:
''They loved each other, but their
life was so tiresome they had hardly
any interests and impressions which
could occasionally afford them pos
sibility Of getting rest from eacL
other and might have satisfied the
natural demand of the human soul
to feel excitement, to think, to glow
in short, to live, or under such con-
ditions Of lack of external impress
sions and interests which lend a zestt
to life. husband and wife are bound
inevitably to become repulsive to
each other."
Gorky's relations with his affinity
were told soon after his arrival. He
was socially ostracized, barred from
hotels and forced into seclusion by
public sentiment. His mission in be-
half of Russian freedom proved
complete failure.
Courts are Unfair to Labor-Gom-
pers.
At a great Labor Day celebration
at the jamestown Exposition, William
Randolph Hearst and Samuel Com
pers were the principal speakers.
Mr.. Gompers, in his address, made
a strong protest against "the dis
elimination Of the courts against the
laboring men Of our country, which
deprived them Of their constitutional
guarantee Of equality before the
law" as he termed it.
"The injunctions as issued against
workmen are never used or issued
against any other citizens of orr
country" declared Mr.. Gompers.
Continuing, he said:
"It is an attempt to deprive citi-
zens of our country, when these citi-
zens are workmen, of the right Of
trial by jury. 1t is an effort to fasten
an ofrense against them when they
are innocent Of any wrongdoing. 1t
is nm indirect assertion of property
right in men when these men are
workmen engaged in a lawful effort
to protect or advance their lawful
rights and interests.
"The injunction as issued in trade
disputes is to make outlaws of men
when they are not even charged with
doing things in violation Of law,
state or national. The writ Of in
junction is in itself a benehcsnt writ

ington, tried his hand at the knock
ing game when he said:
"Mr. Bryan, in discussing some of
my views on the tariff and other mat
ters, has done me the honor to call
me 'the great postponer.' With re-
spect to the tariff I was in favor OF
revision last year, and l am still in
favor Of revision, but am party
man and, hope, a practical man,
and I realize the danger both to the
party and to the country in any re-
vision Of the tariff in the midst of
a presidential campaign. l am con-
vinced that the Republican party as
a party will come to revision OF
the tariff Immediately after the next
presidential election. 1t 1t cannot
be done this year, am in favor OF
doing it next year.
"For two presidential campaigns
Mr.. Bryan urged the free coinage OF
silver at 16 to 1, but now he is post
poning the issue until he can bring
it forward again as panacea IN
times of financial disaster. Second
ly, Mr.. Bryan is now emphasizing OBJ
iections to anti-imperialism until by
his efforts the treaty of Paris was
adopted and the sovereignty Of the
Philippine s was transferred from
Spain to the United States. This is
really the only piece of actual
affirmative constructive statesman
ship with which Mr.. Bryan s name
ever has been connected, and he has
now for eight years been engaged in
attempting to explain that away. F"
One Hundred and Forty Million Dol
lars to Run New York City for year.
The city of New York will face the
most colossal expense account In its
history during the coming year. The
expenses Of government, as figured
out by the various heads of depart
ments, for the coming year will, in
round numbers, be about $140,00O,-
900. This is considerably more than
was required to run the whole Unit
ed States government in 1876, and
shows an expenditure that eclipses
anything ever heard of in municipal
history. 1t has been figured out by
statisticians that at least S40,0O0,-
900 Of this huge amount will go for
graft. Men are growing rich over
night. The only item i'll the budget
this year that will not be seriously
criticized by the taxpayers is the $32,-
100000 that is asked for the public
schools Under Superintendent Max
well, the New York public schools
have gone from nearly the lowest
stage Of efficiency in the country to
the highest. The teachers are the best
paid in this or any other country,
and they are appointed without the
slightest political influence. All that
is required Of them is to pass the
so-called "Maxwell examination" IF
they can do this their place is secure.

do insist that when workman Is
charged with a crime he shall be
tried by the same process Of law as
every other citizen.
$50 far as | am concerned, let me
say that never have |, nor ever will
/, violate . law. / desire it to be
clearly understood that when any
court undertakes, without warrant OF
law, by the injunction process, to do
prive me Of my personal rights and
my personal liberty, guaranteed by
the Constitution, ] shall have no hesi-
fancy in asserting and exercising
these rights. And it may not be
amiss to sound q word Of waning
and advice to such Of the rampant,
vindictive and greedy employers who
seek to rob the working people Of
our country Of their lawful and con-
stitutional rights by the unwarrante,
injunction process. The full power
of labor has never yet been exercized
In defense Of its rights; it is not wise
to compel its exercise"
Mr.. Hearst said, in part:
There should be no prejudice en-
tertained by the capitalist toward
the laborer, and there should be no
prejudice by the laborer toward the
capitalist. There should be an ap-
probation of the essential part which
each plays in the creation of wealth.
"The working man is worthy of
his hire, the business man Of his
profit. The man who digs the pre-
cious metal from the earth is worth
his wage. The man who tells HIM
where to find the gold deserves his
profit, too. The great financial pro-
moters, organizers, executives Of
America, are worthy of recognition
and reward
''They work as hard as any Of us,
and their work is absolutely neces-
sary to the full protection of the
riches out Of which are paid here in
America the highest wages in the
world. Through many an anxious
day and many a wakeful night these
men have planned and prosecuted the
great enterprises which have develop
ed the wealth of the nation and have
given employment to millions of men.
Let them have liberal share Of that
wealth as long as that is the incen-
tive which stimulates them to useful
activities. Let them have wealth as
long as it is honestly acquired
through enterprises that benefit the
whole community. The riches they
amass and call their own are seldom
spent in extravaganza and luxury up
on themselves, but are put back into
new industries, to produce more
wealth and give employment to more
men.
