Memorandum bY Court.

Judge Hallam, in his memorandum ac-
companying the injunction, says:
The Great Northern Railroad company
proposes an increase OF $6O,OOO,OoO to Its
capital stock. The resolution authorizing
such an increase of stock provides that II
shall be created and issued for the fol-
lowing general purposes: First, to pro-
vide funds for further and additional equip
ment; second. to provide funds for addi-
tional terminals and facilities on existing
lines, including second main track and for
the reduction OF grades and improvement
of lines; third. 10 acquire the bonds and
stocks of eight different railroad companies
which are named, and, fourth, TO acquire
such securities as the board OF directors
may from time TO time authorize be ac-
quired. The stock of the defendant is now
$l5O,0O0OOO. The state comedies that under
the general laws OF the state the defendant
may lawfully increase its stock, subject to
the regulation mentioned. The court says
the injunction was asked TO compel the
company to submit 10 this regulation, which
the defendant does not propose 10 do.
Therefore the court holds there is but one
issue raised In the case and the ultimate
right OF the railroad company 10 make the
proposed issue of stock Is not involved In
this action. The court SAYS the contention
Of the state is based on section 2s72, revised
laws OF 1896, originally enacted as chapter
cclxv of the general laws Of 1881 The Ian
guage OF the original act of 1887. the court
says. does not differ in substance from the

STUBS BILL SEESLIGHT
Primary Measure Reported FavorabIy
in the House.

AT a meeting of the house commit
tee on elections last night, the Stubs
primary bill was acted upon favorably
and reported to the house and made
a special order for Thursday at 2
o'clock. There was no minority re-
port On the bill.
The Stubs bill provides that the
primaries of all parties be held on the
same day, and provides for direct vote
on every office, from United States
senator down to township officers
This bill provides for party integrity
board of approval who will meet
and arrange for the election.
This BILL" said Mr.. Stubs today,
meets with the approval of the ma
jority of the voters, who are in favor
of direct primary law. The Demo-
Gratis are 70 rit, and the Republicans
can not afford to ignore it,
This is the first direct primary bill
introduced. The primary election
understood that several other roper
sentatives have legislation of similar
nature in mind.
The Importance of the Stubs bill
is generally understood and its pass
age by the house is assured.
T. 3. Murdoch of ElDorado is a
great exponent of the scheme to re-
quire attendance at primary elections.
He said this morning:

Iitical faction, and he stops at home.
The very best men in the state, the
largest taxpayers, do not as a rule at
tend their party primaries, and If ask
ed to do so make excuses. And it is
my experience that many voters do
not even go to the polls, except in
presidential years. To vote Is counted

party primary is to an extent destruc-
tive of our form. of government. If
all voters attended and participated in
urinary elections that would settle it.
That is the beginning and the end of
the highest type of self government,

sort of an enactment that will require
