YOUNG CASE ARGUED D
Comes Up Before United States
Supreme Court.
IMPORTANT POINT INVOLVED
Thomas D. O'eFien Of Minnesota and
Attorney General Hadley OF Mis-
souri, Appear for Plaintiff. s

The case of Attorney General Ed
ward r. Young of Minnesota, involv-
Ing a fine of 500 on the charge 2of
contempt Of court, was argued IN
the supreme court of the United
States at Washington. The case deals
with the rights of states to prescribe
railroad rates and the Importance Of
the matter was indicated by the effort
to intervene which was made In be-
half of the corporations doing bust
ness IN other parts Of the country
which involve tho same questions
tbs case against Mr. Young grew on
of an effort by the Northern Pacific
Railway company to prevent Young
as attorney general from enforcing
the state law Of 1907. The United
States court for the district of Mime
sofa, Judge Lochren presiding, grant
ed a temporary injunction in accord
ance with the prayer CT the railroad
company, but Notwithstanding this
order Mr.. Young instituted proceed
inss in the state circuit court for
Ramsey county asking for a writ Of
mandamus compelling the railroad
company to comply with the law. He
was promptly summoned before Judge
Lochren, who imposed fine for con.
tempt.
Attorney General Sought Relief.
The attorney general sought relief
by applying in an original action to
the supreme court for a writ Of habea );
corpus on the ground that the Mime
sofa federal court was without juris-
dicticn.
The case involves the constitutional
question whether an action like this
is not suit against a state, which is
prohibited by the eleventh amendment
to the Constitution. So important is
the case that Attorney Hines sought
on behalf of the Southern Railway
company to file brief in the case
because of the probable effect of de-
cision on this point on the various
rate controversies Of that company,
and a. similar request was made IN the
case of the Consolidated Gas company
Of New York, involving the 80icent
law, by Former Assistant Attorney
General Whitney, who appeared for
the House Service Corporation Of New
York. Former Assistant General
Beck made a protest in the latter pro-
ceeding, contending that to permit
such course at this time' would be
equivalent to allowing premature
argument Of the gas case. The court
took the application in this case un-
der a4visement. but admitted the brief
in the Southern Railway case.
The Young case Yves argued by At
; torney Thomas D. O'Brien Of Mime
sofa and Attorney General Hadley OF
! Missouri fer Mr.. Young, and Chief
, Counsel G. -. Bum of the Northern
Pacific a~-'nst that official.

PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.
Executives Principal Recommends

lions to Congress.
Washington, Dec. AIN his mes
sage to congress President Roosevelt
makes the following recommends
tons:
He recommends national incorpora'
ton or federal licensing as a means
of regulating interstate commerce.
The antitrust law, he says. should
be made more effective, SO that it
would prevent combinations that are
harmful to the general public.
AS excellent examples of extended
federal activity the results of the pure
food act are cited.
Special attention is called to the
condition Of the currency laws of the
country. He declares that greater
elasticity in currency is needed and
as a remedy repeats his suggestion
of two years ago that the banks be
allowed to issue notes equal In amount
to a specified portion of their capital,
which shall be taxed so high that
they shall be driven back when no
longer absolutely necessary and cov-
cred as congress shall provide.
Frequent tariff revision is, neces-
sary, on general principles, but he de-
precates such legislation during a
presidential campaign
Income and inheritance taxes, he
says, should be part OF the national
system of taxation.
He suggests that congress pass a
law for compulsory investigation OF
labor disputes.
The tariff on wood pulp should be
repealed and an agreement made
with Canada that that country shall
not impose an export duty on the
same commodity.
The president declares himself In
favor of a postal savings bank and q
parcels post.
# is suggested that congress should
appropriate campaign funds for proper
and legitimate expenses Of presiden-
ttal campaigns.
