THE 1woCENT DECISION.

1t Is outside the province of tn,
lay mind TO undertake to interpret
the full meaning of the decision hand
ed down by the Supreme Court ol
the United States on Monday last
in the cause of Virginia railroads VS.
the State Corporation Commission o!
Virginia.
Two points. however. stand out In
bold relic: which should be crafty
ing to Virginians in particular, and to
advocates of States rights in general.
First in Importance to the people
of this commonwealth Is the unquall,
fed recognition by the country's
highest tribunal Of the lcgislativ"
power Of the State Corporation Com
mission, confined of course. within
the limits OF the Federal constitu-
ton.
Sccondly--and OF vital interest to
every State in the union--is the SUI
premc Courts rebuke OF the action
OF the United States Circuit Court
in entertaining an appeal from tho
order of the Corporation Commission
without such appeal having first gon"
before the Appellate Court of the
Nv;..x;,,;o
This decree will have the whole
some effect OF causing corporations
hereafter TO accord a greater meas
ure OF respect to the judiciary Of the
various States In which they operate.
What would have been the judg-
mcnt Of the Supreme Court Of the
United States had the cause been pre-
scented after traversing the proper
route is, OF course, conjcctural.
AS the matter stands, the State ap-
pears to labor under n disadvantage.
whatever the Supreme Court Of the
United States might do in judging
the two cent passenger rate order up
on its merits.
1t seems, from the best information
now available, that the period during
which the Virginia Court OF Appeals
might have considered an appeal from
the Corporation Commissions ruling
has expired by constitutional limita-
ton.
The opinion OF the high court at
Washington takes note Of this even
tuality, and seemingly provides that
Judge Pritchard's inhibition Of the
two cent rate possibly might stand
in case the Supreme Court Of Virgi-
MIA shall find itself powerless to en-
terrain an appeal at this late date.
On the other hand. 1t is possible
that the Federal justices will ulti-
mately hold to the opinion that ,ne
fault lay with the railroad companies
for their failure to apply to the Vir-
ginia Supreme Court within the time
limit prescribed by the State consti-
tuition and the cases eventually may
go against these corporations on that
ground. E,,%V "
Further litigation will be necessary
to determine whether or not the re-
duced passenger rate shall become et
fective But, as noted above. an i'm
por,ant victory undoubtedly has been
won on behalf Of States rights.
Hcnccforth it will not be in order for
United States Circuit Courts to is
sue injunctions multiplying orders OF
the Virginia Corporation Commission
until the same shall have been pass
ed upon by the State court Of last
resort.

WEDNESDAY. DECEMBER .. 1908.
CAPITALIZATION HAS ARRIVED.

Japanese official organs are not
given to exaggcration in summing up
the purport of cntentcs between the
mikado's government and foreign
powers. Neither do they speak
without the fullest Information upon
the subject treated. Therefore the
following from the public mouth
piece OF Premier Katsura cannot but
bring Joy to the souls OF Americans
who have fallen over each other to
endorse the alliance between the
United States and Japan:
TOXIC. Nov. 3O.-The Kohumin,
Premier Katsura's organ. today well
comes the Japanese-American declara-
ton OF policies as tantamount to an
offensive and defensive alliance.
1T explains that the declaration Is
not called a treaty, owing to the
American Constitution.
1.-The signatories, the japanese
paper says. become the joint guar
dams OF peace in the Pacific AMI the
welfare Of Pacific territories. Be
ing couched in general terms, 1t does
not refer to emigration or naturaliza'
ton.
Incidentally, says Katsura's paper.
the agreement means the rehabiiita-
ton OF Viscount Aoki as the intiator
of the negotiations"
Mark well: THE declaration Is not
called treaty. owing to the Ameri-
can constitution"
Precisely so. II it were called q
treaty, the alliance would have to
be sanctioned by two thirds vote
Of the United States Senate.
Already 1t is announced from Wash
in.ton that this most extraordinary
OF all International pacts will not
even be called TO the attention Of the
legislative body with whose advice
and consent the United States con-
stitution provides that agreements
with foreign countries shall be enter
ed into.
Note further: BEING couched In
general terms. 1t does not refer TO
cmigration or naturalization"
This confirms yesterdays predic-
tion by the Daily Press that Japan
consented TO be Americas friend and
ally only after at least a tacit as
surance that immigration from that
country would not be further restrict
ed and that persons Of japanese
birth should enjoy equal rights vita
American citizens. That Japanese
coolies are not to be barred from
free entry to this country vii! be
great news fer F. II. Hartman and
James J. Hill. the Pacific Railroad
magnatcs. who for years have been
trying to replace native with Japan
csc labo. wherever possible.
Premier Katsura was sure Of his
ground before he permitted his organ
10 speak out. Such frankncss may
not be expected from the Washing
ton government. In the gradual dc
vciopment Of centralized national
cover, . certain amount Of evasion
and deceit Is necessary on this side
of the Pacific.
On the othe. side nothiag else Is
known or ss7ircd 10. The japanese

behavior.
Since the social period has COM
menced here, every social seems to
excel and our young folks are out
until the wee sma' hours of the night.
Once in a while the social ring is
broken and a couple falls out of line;
comes the calithumpian band, with
horns both large and small, tin pans
of all sizes, drums, boxes and bells, to
serenade the young couples, which are
usually very bashful, and confer their
many kind compliments. Thus initi-
ated they start life anew and carry
many friends.

and the snow and ice which was upon

as sugar In hot water, and by 10 a.

with water from one to three inches
deep and all our cutters and streams
were overlooking heir banks. Morgan
Run Valley was one wide and deep
mass of surging waters; bridges were
submerged in many places and many
travellers with teams had to wait from
three to four hours for the waters to
run down before they could go forth.

I'm the Circuit Court for Carroll
l. County, In Equity.
No. 44OO Equity.

Susie NJ. Brown vs. William 0. Brown.
The object of this Bill is to procure o
divorce Vinculo Matrimonii from the said
Defendant. 1t AYERS the marriage on June
18th, in the year 1902, in Howard County,
Maryland, and that the conduct of the de-
PENDANT became such that the Plaintiff was
forced and compelled to abandon him. and
that such abandonment has continued unin-
terruptediy for more than three years, and is
deliberate and final, beyond any reasonable
expectation of reconciliation.
That the Defendant is a non resident of
the Stale of Maryland. and that the Plaintiff
has since the said Marriage always resided
in this State, and is now resident of Carroll
County, in said State.
1t is thereupon, this 25th day of February,
A. D. 1908, ordered by the Circuit Court for
Carroll County, In Equity, that the Plaintiff
give notice to the absent defendant of the
object and substance of his bill. and warn
ing him TO be and appear in this Court in
person or by Solicitor on or before the 18th
day of April, in the year 1908, and show
cause, if any he has why said Decree should
not be passed as prayed, by causing Copy,
of this order to be published once a week.

published in Carroll County before the 23rd
day of March, in the year 1908.

EVANGELIST JOHN M. WARDEN.
Conducting Special Services at Grace
Lutheran Church.

LutneTaH CHuTcus
For the Advocate.
The interest in the special services
conducted by Evangelist John M.War-
den, of Harrisburg, Pa, at Grace Luth-
eran Church, this city, grows each
day. The increased attendance, the
undivided attention, the eager desire,
SO manifest, to catch every word of
this spirit-filled man are evidences
of the Holy Spirits seal upon the
message. The earnest words, the
tender tone, the longing look and
burning words of the preacher, as
he states a truth and rivets it with
scripture after scripture, all combine
to say to the hearer, "Hearkeni God
is Speaking to you through His Mes
senger." Hard is the heart that can
resist such appeals, saturated, as
they are, with love to God and men.
AS in Taneytown, Gettysburg and
other places, precious results, price
less blessings beyond all the worlds
wealth, must follow In every heart
and life where the glorious gospel
thus proclaimed is received. The
church, we believe, has been stirred
to more prayers, more Bible reading,
a deeper interest in one another and
in the lost. The lukewarm, the world
ly in the church have been made to
think and repent and reconsecrate
themselves to God. The coming of
Brother Warden to Westminster is
evidently of God, and any one in the
church or community who has not
been richly blessed can not begin to
estimate what God had in store for
him in the plain, precious gospel mes
sages of this consecrated messenger
of the Christ May the Lord
spare him many years to continue
the glorious work of preaching the
unsearchable riches Of the gospel.
