when the stranger got mp and called
Sam liar and jumped down from his

squared off and led with the loft, and
the next thing saw was his heels in

Then the stranger laughed and
climbed on his wagon and drove away

Majority Opinion sustains the Lower
Court-OId Rate VIII
Be Restored.

Philadelphia, Pa.-By n divided
court, the Pennsylvania two.cent rail.
road rate law was declared unconstitu.
tional Monday in the state supreme
court. AS a result of the decision, the
Pennsylvania railroad has already an.
nounced that 1t will put into effect the
old scale of passenger fares, operative
before the two-cent law went into ef-
feet, as soon as practicable.
Four members of the court united
In sustaining the decree of the lower
court, which declared the law uncon.
stitutional. Chief Justice Mitchell, in
handing down the decree, said:
THE court below awaited them
selves of all the best evidence obtain
able and considered 1t with exemplary
patience and care. Their conclusions
that the enforcement of the law of
1907 against the compliments would
be an injustice to the corporations is,
beyond doubt. just criticism"
Justices Nisperseat and Stewart
filed dissenting openions. while Justice
Potter only gave qualified assent to
the majority decision.
