cago will be brought up for review
in this proceeding, and the extent of
the limitations of the immunity clause
in the law will be interpreted by the
court
Perhaps no action yet brought in
the courts of the country against any
of the great corporations or trusts
has been as far reaching in its eff
fects as this will be. 1t is likely to
settle in great measure the question
of the extent to which the national
government may go under existing
laws in it's efforts to regulate and con
troll these vast aggregations of CAPT
tai.
A long-suffering public will patient
ly await the outcome, although not
without anxiety. It is matter for gen
eral eongratulation that there is an
evident disposition on the part of the
administration to be thorough, and
to leave no stone unturned in its eff
forts to demonstrate that in the indus
trial and commercial life of the coun-
try the creatures are not yet greater
than their creator, and that the
trusts and corporations, however col
ossal they may have become, are still

ladies, was a great success in every
particular. Being the first attempt of
the kind i'll Roswell, the ladies did
not hope to make much, if anything,
out of it, but wished to establish the
CJIautauqua habit so that they might
make it pay in years to come. How
ever, they came out with money on
hand, more than they had dreamed

management and the different perfor-
mers all received their portions.
which amounted to a big per centage
of the whole. Then the ladies had
other expenses that were quite hea-
Wy But after all bills had been paid
and everything settled they were be-
tween s115 and s12O ahead.
The ladies are to be congratulated,
not only on account of their financial
success, but also because of the gen.
eral satisfaction given the people
who attended the entertainments.
To the people of Roswell, VINO pat

ladies extend their heartiest thanks,

Assistant U. S. Attorney General
McHarg in his opening argument for
the government in the trial of the
alleged fraudulent deals in Terrific
rial timber lands, Wednesday after
noon at Albuquerque, held that the
right of the United States to inquire
into the acts of a territorial govern
ment was supreme and without lin
itation. He declared that to say the
United States had no right to inquire
into the disposition of the lands
granted by the law of 1898 was to say
that the government had no right to
inquire into whether or not an act
of congress was being properly exc
cuted, without an additional act of
congress to authorize such an inqui-
ry. We quote from the Morning Jour-
nails report:
He pointed out that the govern
ment, by an act of congress, had the
right to sell the capitol building in
Santa F'e if it so desired, and that its
power over the territory and its gov
ernment was without limitation. His
contention was that the grant by
which congress gave the lands in
question to the territorial institutions
was not an absolute grant; that it
imposed certain limitations as to the
disposition of these lands, and that
in so doing it limited the power of
the territory and made of the terrific
rio fnr
the national government in behalf of
the institutions to which lands were
granted. He held that the territorial
government had no right to legislate
or execute legislation which went out
side the specific terms of the act of
congress granting the lands, and held
that in selling timber from certain
of these lands the territory had gone
outside of the authority delegated by
congress in the act of 1898. His con-
tention was that since the act of con-
gress specified only sale or lease,
tnat the territory, by granting Ii
cense to the defendant companies to
cut timber from lands which could
only be leased, was an exceeding of
the authority SO delegated by con-
gress, and furnished ground for the
suit now pending. His contention
went further to nold that in selling
the timber from these lands the terri
tory had in effect sold the lands,
since the timber constituted the chief
value of the lands, and that the terri
torial government had therefore again
violated the act of 1898. Mr.. McHarg
went further and cited authorities to
show that the territory was not only
no more than a trustee for the gov
ernment in relation to the lands in
question, but that as a territory it
had no right to hold land.
