The decision OF Judge I-cchren, if
ustained, would mean the bankrupt
cv of popular rights in Minnesota.
The state would sink to the level of a
nbject province, with no rights ex.
cept to make suggestions, which
might or might not be needed. Yet
the decision is in line with several
addresses of the PRECEDENT and with
che speech of Secretary Root. The
magnates would certainly prefer deal.
ing with one central p over instead Of
with many states. Yet ardent sup
porters of the president like the Min.
neapolis Journal do not appear to see
the point, and deplore Judge Loeb
,en's decision while supporting the
presidents views, manifest incon.
sistency. Which brings Us around to
another fact-that certain much
abused gentleman living in Nebraska
foresaw this very thing. and while
advocating the strictest control by the
government, urged that the rights OF
the states be protected to the utmost.
This is nation, but the states are
the units Of that nation, ard their
weakness or strength will determine
its fate. Either strict control by both
states and national government, or
ultimate government ownership.

COCHRAN AND ANDERSON FREE,

The Gaze against David Cochran
and Fred Anderson at Grand Rapids,
brought against them for the killing
Of Allen Whit, came to a very sud
den conclusion last week. when the
county attorney, losing all faith in his
chief witness. the woman who
claimed to be Whitt's wife, asked the
Judge to discharge Cochran and An.
derson. The judge readily complied
with the request Of the county attor.
ney and the gentlemen were freed.
The woman has been arrested on
the charge OF perjury, it having been
discovered that her name was Mrs.
Rosen and that bad record was Gre
dited to her in Wisconsin. Cochran
was at one time Wright county OH .
eial but is- now . resident Of Deer
River.
