IN The HOUSE

Washington, D. c., March 10
After several hours of spirited dis
cussion over the proposition to abol-
ish seven of the Fifteenth U. S. pen
sion agencies and consolidate the
pension disbursements in Washing
ton, the house of representatives to-
day passed the pension appropria-
ton bill, carrying $140,869, 900, the
largest sum ever authorized by that
measure. The house by vote of
Sc to 139 stood by the committee
on appropriations and left unshanged
its recommendations for one general
agency.
In the curse of the debate, Mr..
Fitzgerald of New York accused the
president of using the federal pat
ronage to further the interests of
Secretary Taft for the presidency.
Early in the day the president was
attacked by Messrs. Harrison Of New
York and Williams of Mississippi, for
having, as they stated, surpassed his
constitutional authority in making
laws for the Panama canal zone by
the executive Off er.

Taft's unfitness to deal with ques-
lions of corporations. You will find
this evidence in the hearing before
the committee of the house of rep
5Sth congress. Secretary Taft was
witness before the committee.
There was in the charter of the Ma
Mia railway provision that at the
end of one hundred years the rail-
way should revert to the Spanish
government. The company had
claims against the United States for
occupation of the railway for nine
months. Sec. Taft explained that he
attempted to settle this claim by CIV
ing to the railway a perpetual fran
chise. The point that I desire to
make is this, that Secretary Taft was
willing to fasten upon the Filipino
people a perpetual franchise, and
give to the railroad company power
to hold that franchise forever"
''The trouble is that Secretary
Taft looks at public questions from
the standpoint of men who own and
operate corporations which need reg
ulation, whereas reforms must come
from those who look at the question
from the standpoint of the masses
of the people,
President Roosevelt is the leader
of the reform sentiment in the re-
publican party and yet he fayors ma
tional interpretations. Secretary
Taft is the presidents chosen candi-
date for the republican nomination
and behold, how biased he is in fav-
or Of corporations as against the
public. Governor Hughes, who is

tive OF the reactionary element,

against the injustice to stockholders
than in divising remedies which will

ton.

First National Bank of Knox, respond

FlTSt NaClonai BANK OF Nnox, respond.
ent, vs.. Bakken, ct AL, appellants.
Action upon promissory note execut,
ed and delivered by defendants to
the State Bank of Knox. The defense
is that such bank acted as their agent
in the collection of certain drafts
drawn against consignments of grain
and in collecting balances due on such
consignments, and that it had in it's
possession enough funds thus collect
ed to liquidate the balance due on
such note, and that defendants re-
quested the application of said funds
accordingly. Plaintiff bank, the sue
cessor of the State Bank of Knox,
contends that one M, who was cash
Ter, and not the bank, acted as such
agent and that no such funds came
into the possession of said bank which
were not accounted for At the con-
clusion of the testimony, the trial
court directed verdict in plaintiffs
favor. Held; Reversible error for the
reason that the testimony tended to
show that sum in excess of the
amount due on the said notes was re-
ceived, either by the bank or by NJ,
individually, and not accounted for to
defendants, and the evidence was suf-
ficient to require submission to the
jury of the question whether the bank
or whether NJ acted as such agent.
In reviewing ruling of the trial
court in directing a verdict, the testi-
mony will be construed in it's most
favorable light towards the party
against whom such ruling is made,
and all reasonable and legitimate in
ferences which can be deduced In his
favor will be deducted therefrom; and
when thus considered, if it can be
said that reasonable men may fairly
differ in the conclusion to be reached
thereon, such ruling will be held re-
versible error.
If the bank through its cashier M,
acted as such agent for defendants
and received the benefit of the trans.
action, it was under legal obligation
to account to defendants for such
funds even though M. exceeded his au.
thority in thus acting, but it is held
that the bank through it's proper Of
ficers had a right to act as such agent
and hence if it did so act, such acts

Sucker State Drill Co., respondent, VS..
Wirtz Bros, appellants.
Plaintiff, foreign corporation,
brought this action to recover the
purchase price of certain drills sold
and delivered by it to defendants.
The defense interposed is that plant
iff has not complied with the law of
this state, being sections 469-4699 R.
c., prescribing the conditions upon
which such corporations may do bust
ness within our borders, it being ad-
mitted by plaintiff that it has noe
complied with such law.
Evidence examined, and it is, Held;
That plaintiff did not violate such
statute as in it's dealing with defend
ant, out of which it's cause of action
accrued, it was engaged in transact
ing or doing an interstate, as contra
distinguished from an intrastate, bust
ness.
The statute aforesaid cannot apply,
nor was it intended that it should ap-
ply to foreign corporations while en-
gagged solely in transacting an inter-
state business. 1t will be presumed
that in the enactment of such statute,
the legislature did not intend in any
manner to interfere with the exclu-
sive power vested in the congress of
the United States to regulate or re-
strict the business of interstate COM
merce.
A portion of the drills sold to defen-
dants were in store at Grand Forks
and were shipped directly to defend
ants from that place, but it is held,
for reasons stated in the opinion, that
this shipment did not constitute the
transacting or doing business within
the state in violation of said stat
ute. y, 2
Certain evidence as to prior, but
wholly Independent contracts and
transactions of plaintiff with other
citizens of the state, claimed to have
been violations of such statute, is
held irrelevant.
