were captured, and imprisoned in

the intense suffsrings experienced by
so many others who were unfortu-

that institution. The history is as
follows:
The LIST Mimi, one of Fox's night
Ing regiments, was organized at Fort
Smelling April 20, 1851, and itsorig-
inal members, with the exception
of the veterans mustered out upon the

The Organization, composed Of vet
Grams and recruits, was then consol-

What is known the commodity clause OF the Hepburn
interstate has been held unconstitutional This
clause intended prevent interstate railroads being both
miners and carriers 1t especially aimed at the anthracite
coal roads OF Pennsylvania which said 20 per cent
OF the unnned anthracite coal in that Their monopoly
OF the business of both mining and carrying complete be
the other 10 per did conform 10 the railroads
rules and prices they could be driven OF business
Congress deemed this condition of affairs evil. and
acted the Hepburn law II supposed that the roads would
sell their coal lands and 60 Of the coal mining business
Instead the roads attacked the validity of the law and have
first blood by decision in their favor in the United States
Of appeals Philadelphia Judge Geo Gray eeentiy
Democratic candidate for the presidency and Judge Dallas
decided against the government but Judge Burlington held the
law valid Judges Cray and Dallas held the law be
sonable and an invasion OF state rights
The constitution and statutes of Pennsylvania prohibit
railroads from mining coal but the railroads have far
troed the officers and OF that commonwealth
prevent the enforcement Of the Pennsylvania laws
This decision Of Judges Gray and Dallas upheld
by tbs United States court that the federal govern
ment is poweress to deal with this evil
In other words If the railroads continue the state
OF Pennsy yana all the balance of the United States
less o obtain relief from the anthracite monopoly.
This decision again brings forward the question Of the
appointment OF federal judges II is evident that the presidents
OF the United States have been putting upon the federal bench
