THE PEOPLE WIN

A Carson dispatch of the Bird says
that Judge Farington of the United
States court handed down his decision
In the suit brought by the Los Angeles,
San Pedro and Salt Lake railroad COM
pany against the railroad commission.
The decision is very lengthy docu-
ment and every point raised by both
sides in the controversy is dealt with in
detail. Every contention made by the
commission is upheld and the principal
point at issue, namely the constitution
atty of the maximum rate law, is up
held. .. 80.
The points at issue and on which the
railroad company asked that the act
creating the railroad commission be de-
clared null and void were in substance
as follows;
/ That the appointment of the railroad
commission was Unconstitutional be-
cause the commissioners had been APP
Fpointed by q railroad board created by
the legislature. .. D..
B That the statute was unconstitutional
Ebecause it invested the commission with
judicial powers.
That an enforcement of the act would
subject the railroad company to a null
tiplicity cf suits.
That the penalties sought to be exact
ed by the law were excessive.
That the law was discriminatory as
between narrow gauge and broad gauge
roads and roads that have been in
operation for two years or more and
roads that have not. -.
That the law deprives the plaintiff
company of full judicial determine
ton of any controversy, respective to
rates.
The main point raised was that the
| maximum rate clause of the law was
unconstitutional
In the suit the railroad company
asked that the act creating the legis
lature be stricken out, for perpetual
injunction against the railroad COM
mission preventing them from enforcing
the maximum rate law and for ON in
junction pendente life in regard to the
other points raised in the complaint.
A restraining order was afterwards
issued enjoining the attorney general
and the commission from enforcing the
law until hearing had been secured.
This was afterwards modified so as to
apply only to the maximum rate clause.
The decision of Judge Harrington also
dissolves all injunctions and restraining
orders issued in the case.

large majority of the American people
preferred William II. Taft and he is
now the president of all the people.
Judge Farrington's decision sustaining
the railroad commission law is great
victory for the state. If the decision
is sustained by the U. S. supreme court,
Nevada will be in position to stop the
highwayman tactics of some of the rail
roads. The decision marks the beginning
of the end of railroad domination in
this great and glorious state. Hurrah
for Judge harrington and three times
three for his decision.
