HEPBURN RAILROAD
ACT INVASION OF
STATE RIGHTS
Commodities Clause" Decided
to Be Invalid.
COAL ROADS WIN IN SUIT
Government Loses Case In Pennsyl-
vanla U. S. District court-WIII
Take an Appeal

Philadelphia, Sept. 10.-Declaring
it to be drastic, harsh and unreason-
able and an invasion of the rights of
the states, and therefore. repugnant
to the constitution, the United States
Circuit court for the eastern district,
of Pennsylvania yesterday dismissed
the suits of the Federal government
to enforce the commodities clause of
the Hepburn railroad act against the
anthracite coal carrying railroads of
this state. Judges George Gray and
George NJ. Dallas fled opinions dis
missing the suits. and Judge Joseph
Burlington dissented but did not file
an opinion.
The commodities clause prohibits
railroad companies to transport in In.
terstate commerce any article of COM
modify manufactured, mined or pro
duced by them or under their author.
ity. The case was argued in June,
United States Attorney General Bon
aparte delivering the principal argu-
ment for the government. The effect
of the commodities clause If consti.
tutional would be to confine the min
ing OF anthracite coal by the railroads
for use in Pennsylvania only, or COM
pei the railroads to sell all the mining
property they are interested in, either
directly or indirectly.
The decision of the court did not
come as a great surprise. IL is al.
most certain that the case will be APP
pealed directly to the United States
supreme court.
The principal opinion was written
by Judge Gray. who, as president Of
the anthracite strike commission, has
an intimate knowledge of the mining
of hard coal and of the many ramifi
cations in the ownership of the coal
mines. Judge Dallas said In his opin
ion that the commodities clause was
enacted mot actually for the regula
ton OF interstate commerce, but really
to coerce the conformity of interstate
business with policy approved by
Congress-.
Prom every point of view which
we have been able to approach the
question, the unreasonableness and
consequent invalidity of this socalled
commodities clause is apparent. 1t
inyades the rights of the state, by
striking down the privileges innoc'
emily enjoyed by its citizens under the
laws and usages of the commonwealth
to engage in interstate commerce to
the fullest extent, as to all harmless
articles, whether owned or not owned
by the carrier, and deprives of their
property these defendants, contrary
to the latter and spirit of the fifth
amendment to the constitution. II

The baseball team that represented

more than one game, have insisted
that the boys were weak with the

taken into consideration the Huckle-

Like all ball players outside of the
really star class they didn't bat hard
all the time. In one game player

in the season Prindle was good for
from one to three hits In every game

unusually good Early in the season
Cathcar could not land the ball in

FILLMORE FARMS
DORSET SHEEP
TAKE RIBBONS
Grand Showing at Michigan and
Ohio State Fairs.
SECURE MANY FIRST PRIZES
Five Out OF Seven In Ohio Sweep
Everything In Sight at
Michigan State Fair

That Vermnt stands in the lead as
the state where the best development
in sheep may be obtained, has been
recently proven by the extraordinary
honors carried Off at recent fairs by
flocks Of horn Dorset sheep bred by
the Fillmore farms of this town OF
which G. G. Jones is superintendent,
Sheep from these farms have so far
this season been exhibitaaxIH three
fairs, namely at Columbus, Detroit
and Cambridge and have captured
nearly all the first prizes of their
class at each.
They were first shown this fall at
Columbus, at the Ohio state fair which
was conceded by all exhibitors to be
the greatest Dorset show ever held In
America, even surprising the Inter
national, which was held at Chicago
last year Under the strongest com
petition, nine.tenths Of which was
composed of the best imported sheep,
the Fillmore farms stood first and the
entire bunch carried by them with
one exception, were home bred. They
took all the flock prizes, and In fact
were never led out In any entry and
returned withut ribbons.
They took five first prizes, two Sec
onds, one third, In this latter they had
two entries, taking first and third,
making FIVE first prizes out of a pos
sible seven. They also received one
championship, out of possible two.
and this one was won over an import
ed sheep, valued at several hundred
dollars.
At Detroit, the Michigan state fair,
which is also a great live stock exhib-
ition, where they were judged on Sept
Sth, the Fillmore farms flock took abb
solutely every first competed for, in
Guiding four championships, and two
grand championships.
| Next week this flock will be shown
in Syracuse, the New York-state f2X.
The following week at the Vermont
State fair at White River Junction,
which will complete their circuit for
this season.
| A second flock, which was selected
from field stock, was shown at the
| fair in Cambridge, where 1t took every
thing offered with one exception.

TO MEET IN BENNINGTON
Berkshire County F. M. T. A. B. to
Hold Session In Town

Next Sunday when the annual meet

ted to the County Union six months
ago, its admission having been due to
the efforts made by County President
Michael Patterson of North Adams.
The question of its admission to the
Sprinield Diocesan union win come
up at meeting to be held in Worcester
October IA and 10, says the Transcript
of that city.
In admitting the Bennington socie-
ty to the County Union that body went

position in which the Bennington so.
ciety was situated. and all of the mem
bers OF the County Union are agreed
that its action was justifiable and com
|mendable.
1t may not be generally known that
the Bennington Temperance society is
the only Catholic temperance organi.
cation In the state of Vermont. In
years gone by, the society affiliated
with the organization which has its
headquarters at Albany, but, the other
societies were so far away and there
was so little REORGANIZATION that
the ties finally grew less binding and
for number Of years the Bennington
society has been going II alone. In
spite of this fact, the society has kept
up its work and its membership is now
over 1870. There is no Ladies Aid so
ciety there and the formation of one
is one of the main objects which Pres
ident Patterson hopes to accomplish
by having the annual meeting helC
there.
During the year that President Pat
Iterson has been in Office, the temper
ance campaign has been waged active
ly and more has been accomplished in
the way Of reorganization of defunct
societies than in any other county in
the diocesan union.
The Ladies' Aid society in this city
has been recognized and is now in
a flourishing condition and is doing a
fine work. At Adams both the mems
society and the Ladies Aid have been
IreorganiZed and the Father Mathew
society there with a membership be
tween 60 and 20 is stronger than II
has ever been.
