victory In the state supreme court
today when the court held that the
provisions OF the Seattle freehold.

void.
The court says that the laws OF

power 10 prescribe terms and con
ditlons under which the railways
should be constructed, and that

In other words. the council
can grant any old franchise on
any old terms, and the court
says u cannot interfere unless
a showing is made OF absolute
fraud or corruption.
