PORK BARREL
DECIDED ILLEGAL
SUPREME COURT NOW SusTAlNS
JUDGE BRILL IN BRIDGE
FUND SUIT,
MANY COUNTIES CONTRACTING
For Bridges and Roads Expecting to
Receive Share Of State Money in
August and will Now Have to
Find Funds Elsewhere.

st. Paul-The pork barrel" appro-
priation of 100000 for roads and
bridges was knocked out by the state
supreme court in an unanimous de-
cision written by Chief Justice Chas.
M. Start. The decision of Judge H.
R. Brill, of Ramsey county, is affirmed
and the law is held to be unconstitu.
tional.
Many counties in Minnesota have
already begun bridge work in antici-
patton of getting the state money
Aug. l. Some provision will have to
be made for payment on these con.
tracts by local authorities.
Chief Justice Starts opinion finds
that the mandamus action brought by
Senator l.. o. Cooke can be main.
tanned against State Auditor Ivrrson,
In spite of the rule that the state can.
not be sued, because courts have al
ways held that mandamus can be
brought against an official to restrain
him from ministerial act.
Attorney General Not Sustained.
He also holds that the appropria-
ton is illegal, when taken from the
state revenue fund, because of the
constitutional provision holding that
the state cannot engage in works of
internal improvement. The claim of
the attorney general that internal
improvement" does not apply to roads
Is rejected.
Under this decision the only aid the
state can give to road making is
through the state road and bridge
fund, which is expressly provided for
by the constitution.
Old Fund Also Affected.
The decision not only holds up
100000 appropriated for the next two
years, but there is balance of $685.
622.30 from the 100000 appropriated
In 1907, which has not been expended
and has been in the treasury to the
credit of the counties. That also will
be wiped out. Since the Cooke suit
was brought the state auditor has de-
clined to pay any warrants under the
1907 appropriation, and several small
ones presented recently have been
held up. 1t is thought that most of
the work covered by the 500,
balance has not been performed, but
considerable has already been started,
counting on the new appropriation.
Fear was expressed at the capitol
today that suits might be brought by
some of the state senators against the
appropriation for the state fair grand
stand, claiming it is work of inter-
nal Improvement, and that some ques-
ton might be raised against the state
prison Irvine plant and harvester
plant, which are operated for profit,
and might be claimed to be internal
improvement"

COUNTIES TO GET FREE ROCK.
State Ready to Furnish Crushed
Granite Where Needed,

State Ready to Furnish Crushed
Granite Where Needed.
The first of the crushed granite
which the state is grinding at the
st. Cloud reformatory to be furnished
free to counties that want to use it
on the roads is about ready for ship
ment and from now on about eight or
ten cars a week will go out from the
crushing plant. The Great Northern
and Northern Pacific, who offered to
do the hauling free, will begin carry
ing the rock in a day or two.
Some of the first rock goes to Prince
ton, large quantity will be hauled by
team from the crusher to adjoining
roads, and Sherburne and Anoka coun-
ties will come next on the list.
The Northwestern line has prom
Used to haul the rock free Is miles on
any of it's lines from the Twin Cities.
George w. Cooley, engineer of the
state highway commission, wrote to
some of the other roads, asking them
to do the same. The Minneapolis and
st. Louis road answered that the
anti-pass law of 1907 prevented them
from carrying anything free either for
individuals or for the state, and though
they were much interested in the
cause of good roads, they were sorry
that the law did not permit them to
grant the request.
Mr.. Cooley referred this matter to
some of the other roads that had prom
Used to haul rock free, and they an
swered that in their Interpretation of
the ant-pass law it would not interfere
with their hauling the rock free. The
report that the attorney general gave
Mr.. Cooley an opinion stating that the
anti-pass law prevented the hauling of
rock free is denied by both Mr.. Simp-
son and Mr.. Cooley. Mr.. Simpson
says that no opinion has been asked
from him on the subject.

Where Insursent Votes Are
Claimed.

Washington.-The outlook for an in
surgent movement of formidable pro-
portions in the house of representa-
tives is becoming brighter every day.
Republican members from the middle
west states, represented by the ten
republican senators who voted against
the final passage of the tariff bill, are
gradually shaping their affairs for a
concerted movement against the con-
ferees' report, provided that report
fails to show substantial revision
downward.
No attempts at organization have
been made, but there have been in
formal conference, until now there
is good idea as to just what
strength an insurgent movement can
command. The report of the tariff
conferees, when made, will be read
carefully by these middle west repub-
licans, and then will come trouble,
provided there has been an attempt
to compel the acceptance by congress
and the country of bill which vic.
lates the pledges Of the party and Of
Mr.. Taft.
It is interesting to note that some
of the proposed insurgents will come
from New England and New York,
which shows that dissatisfaction with
the senate bill is not cvonfined to the
upper Mississippi and Ohio valleys.
Conservatively estimated, there will
be at least forty-four of these republi-
can insurgents, and the number may
easily go above fifty. But twenty
three will be enough, provided all the
democrats of the house, 172 in num-
Der stand pat.
From Wisconsin there will be nine
votes, and from Minnesota eight;
Iowa will have eight and Nebraska
three; North Dakota will contribute
two and Kansas three. This number
from New York may turn out to be
six instead of three. There will be
one insurgent from Massachusetts,,
two from Indiana and two from I'LL.
nois. This makes up the forty.four
votes.
