attack the law, bringing a suit In the
local courts to restrain the county of
Philadelphia from collecting the fine
for violating the provisions of the act.
The hearing in the case lasted nearly
week and among the witnesses were
President McCrea and several of the
vice presidents Of the Pennsylvania
railroad. The contention of the COM
pany was that the law was not consti-
tutiOnal and that the 2-cent rate was
fixed without any Investigation on the
part of the legislature as to whether
the railroads could make fair profit
under the law, which the company as
serts 1t cannot do. All other railroads
operating in Pennsylvania have also
brought similar proceedings in various
counties of the state, but no decisions
have been rendered, as it is generally
understood that the Pennsylvania's
suit will be made the test case in the
higher court.
Two.cent Rate Unreasonable.
The decision of the court takes up
ITO typewriter pages. After review
ing it's limitations In the present case
and declaring the Pennsylvania Rail-
road company is not vested with any
immunity from the exercise of the
power of the legislature to regulate
rates." the court takes up the con-
tention of the company that the 2
cent rate Is unreasonable, sustains
the contention and grants the injunc-
ton asked for. Continuing, the court
says:
There remains now to be disposed
of the question Of whether the act is
to be denied enforcement on the
ground that by reason of the general
ity of it's language it extends to inter
state commerce and thus infringes on
the province of the federal laws. This
question must be answered in the
negative. It Is, of course, not to be
disputed that when, under it's consti-
tutional power to regulate commerce
among the states, congress has under
taken the regulation of interstate rail-
road rates the legislature Of Pennsyl-
vania has no authority to NEEDLE with
that matter. But legislative intent
to exceed constitutional rights and to
violate fundamental law is never to
be presumed, if the language of the
statute can be satisfied by contrary
construction. A statute is to be con.
strued in connection with constitu-
tional provision in parimateria. The
act with which we are concerned Is,
therefore, to be regarded as intended
to apply only to that part of the pas
senger business of the railroads over
which the legislative power of regula
ton extends and since that business
is not so confused with interstate pas
senger traffic as to be insusceptible of
separate regulation we hold that the
act is not invalid for the reason last
suggested. 2 4s!es7s-s Is

AMERICANS ON HAND.
Seattle AnthJap Agitators Prom.
inent in Vancouver Riots.
AFFAIR CAREFULLY PLANNED

Demonstration Intended to Convey to
Japanese Official the Strong HostlI-
ity to Oriental immigration Prevail.
Ing on the Pacific Coast.
81 Portland, Ore, Sept. 1.-THE Ore
gonian prints the following special
from Seattle, Wash:
Every indication is that the Van
couver lB. c. riots were carefully
planned to impress Mr.. Ishii, chief of
the bureau of foreign commerce. It is
significant that the leaders of the Sc
attic organization against Japanese
immigration were in Vancouver head
ing the demonstration. Frank w. Cot
terill, president of the Washington
State Federation Of Labor; A. e. Fow-
Ter, secretary of the Anti-Japanese
and Korean immigration league;
George P. Listman, a prominent Seat
tie labor leader, all were present, to-
gether with big delegation of Amer.
lean anti-Japanese sympathizers. The
significance of the Japanese riots
dates back to the programme evolved
when it was announced that Ishii was
coming to Seattle. 1t was then de-
cided and telegraphed out of Seattle
that the anti-Oriental organizations
proposed to present to Ishii while he
was in Seattle protest against Japa-
nese immigration. At the time this
plan was formulated it was believed
Ishii would spend a week in Seattle
and then 60 to Vancouver. There was
planned at a conference between Van
c0uver and Seattle anti-Japanese lead
ers all the details for big anti-Japa-
nese demonstration in Vancouver
Sept. IL. It developed that Ish1i did
not have time to spend in Seattle and
he went through to Vancouver. Stimuli
taneously with his going local leaders
OF the AntiJapanese society went
North. They We're in Vancouver
when the outbreak occurred and
though announcement is made in pri-
vate letters from anti-Japanese lead
ers that they harangued the mob not
to do violence the society itself be-
lieves the demonstration had to do
with their presence. It was impossi-
BILE to present a big anti-Japanese pc
tition to Ishii here and he refused to
remain long enough for the Vancouver
demonstration Sept. IL. There is a
question whether Seattle, Portland or
San Francisco agitators took part.
The great bulk of the marching and
rioting throng was composed of Cana
dians and the Japanese officials ig.
nored American participants in the
telegram of protest to the Ottawa
government.

the 2-cent railroad fare law passed by
the last legislature. The case upon
which the decision was made will be

The 2-cent fare law was enacted by
the legislature as a result Of agitation

parties pledging themselves in favor
OF such legislation. The railroads, led

TAX PLEASURE BOATS
HERE THIS SEASON.

Launches will be taxed this year,
according to the orders received by
the local assessors from the County
Board of Taxation.
William A. Spencer, clerk of the
County Board of Equalization of
Taxes, said this morning that the in
structions have been to tax all per-
sonal property, and that launches
should be no more exempt from taxes
than automobiles. All boats, said Mr..
Spencer, are under police protection
and there is no reason why they
should be exempt from taxes.
l. r. Golding, one of the assessors,
said this morning that he will endeav-
or to let no boat escape his attention.
The small row boats, he said, are
worth but little, and are not worth
taxing, but all launch owners will be
compelled to pay taxes for their boats
the same as for any other personal
property.
