employees will remain the same.
For over seven years the Murray

Hill may cut his $50, 900 melon with
the Great Northern stockholders when
he pleases- He may not cut another

this issue gees through.
This is in accord with a decision OF
the State supreme court today setting
aside an Injunction against the proposed
issue Of additional capital stock secured
by the state in the Ramsey county
district court.
The section OF the law attempting to
give the railroad and warehouse com
mission supervision over such an issue
IS held invalid. The court points out.

been valid. 1t is too late now, however.
10 get such a bin through the Iegisla-
ture. now in session before the $50, ,00C 90
issue can be put through.
The courts hold the legislature has no
power to delegate conditions and limita-
tiOns upon increases Of capital stock
the power Of corporations or terms or
conditions upon which they may be
created. The legislature, however, has
the right 10 regulate such issues and
may confer upon the commission the
duty of supervising. In case facts are
found 10 bring the proposed increase
within the prohibition Of the statute
then the commission refuse il.
The Minnesota law as il stands az
tempts 10 authorize the comWission to
allow or refuse such stock issues on
such terms and for such purposes as
1t may deem advisable. This the court
holds TO be unconstitutional
