New York statute all acquisitions by one
common carrier of the stock or franchises
of another by purchase or lease are
forbidden, and the purchase of more
than 10 per cent of the stock of COM
mon carrier by a holding company is
prohibited, unless the consent of the Pub

Thus the whole subject of combinations
Is left to the discretion of the Public
Service commissioners, who are presum-
ably to be guided by their own judgment

New York law, so far as brevity and
simplicity are concerned, has the auvau-
tage of not seeking to define explicitly
the circumstances under which combina-
tions are TO be prohibited. But. owing TO
the fact that it regulates trolley lines as
well as railroads, even prohibition of
combinations of competitors would not
have been feasible. and, therefore, the
conditions surrounding it and those sur
rounding the proposed federal law are
not exactly parallel.

in hearty accord with the intent Of the

been reached in the present draft.

STRETCHING STATE COHITY.

1t is TO be hoped that Rhode Island
will not so far forget the comfy which
should exist between the states as to ac-
cept certain repudiated securities of
North Carolina and try to collect them By
an appeal to the United States Supreme
Court. Some holders of North Carolina
bonds, despairing of ever recovering
either principal or interest, have offered
them as a gift to Rhode Island, and the
Legisla ture passed an act the other day
authorizing their deposit in the state
treasury. On second thought, however,
the desirability of such a contribution to
the states resources has seemed open to
challenge, and two repeal measures
have been introduced One, which passed
the House of Representatives, directs
that the bonds be returned to their
former owners, and the other, pending
in the Senate, provides that they be can
celled and presented TO North Carolina.
Holders of these bonds have offered
them TO several states, with the purpose
of forcing suit for recovery in the SUI
preme Court. Citizens Of one state can
not sue another state, but states can sue
one another. so the only chance 10 bring
proceedings for recovery lay in persuad-
ing some state TO take title and demand
settlement. The Legislature of South
Dakota was persuaded some years ago
TO become collecting agency and a dun
ner of sister states. At South Dakota's
suit North Carolina was hailed into the
Supreme Court, and was adjudged by
fri al fn hn in 70 tI1n
trea sury at Yankton. North Carolina
paid after some grumbing, for she main
tGins that the bonds were issued irregu-
lary and without fair consideration
Recently South Dakota has shown some
cOntrition at having benefited so ungen-
erously at the expense OF a sister COM
monwealth, and steps have been taken
to refund the forced payment.
Rhode Island can hardly afford to be
so mercenary as to lead second raid
on the North Carolina treasury. If any
state had purchased North Carolina's
bonds in good faith she would be clearly
entitled TO bring suit for collection. But
individual purchasers knew at the time
they made their investment that the
federal Constitution denied their right
to sue North Carolina except in her own
courts If the courts of North Carolina
have rejected the claims of individual
bOndholderS there may be some sub
stantial ground for questioning the valid
ity of the bond issue. Each state ought
TO respect the rights and dignity of every
other state, and il is anything but con-
siderate for one commonwealth to use
the right of access to the Supreme Court
TO push claim not representing any
equity of her own and growing out of a
transaction in which she had no interest.
Rhode Island and North Carolina are
both original states. They stand in an
interesting historical relation toward
each other in that they both hesitated to
come into the Union. They were COM
rades then in a cautious dread of sacri-
ticing local rights. They ought to stand
together now in delicate appreciation
of the niceties of state sovereignty.
