STATE RIGHTS
NOT INVOLVED
Constitution Gives Federal
Courts Authority to Pass
on Question of Whether
Anti-Railroad Measures
are Conf1scatory or Not,
He Says-Opinion Follows
Decision of Supreme Court
ax Associated Press.

Montgomery, Ala, March 2S.-In a
decision making permanent the tenn
porary injunction decided last August,
Judge Thomas G. Jones, in the fed
eral court today, declared the acts
which sought to prevent railroads OF
the state from going into federal
courts, unconstitutional, and that anti
railroad acts OF the Alabama legisla-
ture should be suspended, pending an
investigation of the complaints of the
railroads, that such acts We're confs-
catory.
Judge Jones declared the issue of
states rights was not involved in the
issue now IN the federal court The
constitution itself, he held, gives the
federal court the right to pass upon
such questions. and the real objec-
ton to its exercise is therefore an
objection to the principles of the
Union.
The effect of the decision is to de-
clare unconstitutional the greater
parts of the railroad code adopted by
the Alabama legislatu and to Sis
pend all rate acts until the justice of
such rates can be determined.
In all essential details the opinion
is similar to that rendered by Justice
Packhaan in the federal supreme court
in the Minnesota and North Carolina
cases

kurn Hsttin n o m es.

AT meeting held last week, of the
Board OF Trustees of Kurn Hattin Home,
the matter of rebuilding the administra-
ton building which was destroyed by
fire on February 2Sth, was given coDsid-
GRAFTON. Upon consulting the best au-
thorities in regard to the methods of con-
Quoting sue Homes. il was decided
that II would be desirable to erect a
building OF moderate siz- for administra
ton purposes and which would also care
I for about 30 boys, and later add to this
another cottage building where about
the same number of younger boys could
very favorable report as to the subscrip-
tions that have already been received for
the purpose Of rebuilding.
The plan of the boa,d d of trustee called
for fund of twenty thousand dollars in
addition to the insurance money, for the
erection of the two buildings above spec
flied and necessary repairs to the Warner
Home building at Saxton's River and to
the farm buildings at Kurn Hattin. OF
this amount, the treasurer reported that
thirteen thousand dollars had already
been pledged, and the trustees therefore
voted to proceed at once to the erection
of the administration building. 1t will
be two story building and contain all
necessary rooms for the officers of the
Home, dormitory for thirty boys, and
with kitchen and dining room facilities
to provide for all the inmates, when the
whole plan of the board is carried out.
In addition to this building, the board
gave directions to have a modern laun
dry installed at the farm cottage, and
various other improvements made to the
farm buildings. They were also able to
. 4
provements that had been greatly need
ed at the Warner Home, SaXton's River,
which is also under the care of the Kurn
Hattin trustees. An addition will be
made to the main building of the Warner
Home, so that wheE completed 25 boys
can be cared for here, making the capac-
ity of the two homes So boys. Various
other Improvements at the Warner Home
will be made in the way of repairs to the
barns and other buildings.
This all indicates a new era of prosper
ity and usefulness for the Kurn Hattin
Homes and those that have been aiding
the work that has been done there for
neglected and needy children, are to be
congratulated on what will give increas-
ed usefulness to this most worthy insti-
tuition.
The trustees are anxious to secure, ae
soon as possible, the additional funds
} necessary for the erection of the second
building. They therefore would urge all
persons who have not yet contributed to
the building fund, to make such contri
buttons as they are able as soon as posi-
BILE. Pledges or contributions can be
J sent to Mr. E. L. Walker, Treas, Bellows
, Falls, Vt.
1t is hopedythat sufficient funds may
: be received at an early date so that botf
buildings can be erected this season.
