JUDGE HOLMES DECIDES THEY
ARE NOT COMPELLED TO
INSTALL sIDETRAcKS.
WAS TEST CASE IN NEBRASKA
Declares The Statute Unconstitutional
Prohibits Soliciting Business
on Trains in Arkansas by
Hotels and Doctors.

Washington, D. C.-EmphasiZ1ng
the rights of railroads, the supreme
court of the United States declared
unconstitutional the law of Nebraska
requiring railroads to build switches
to all grain elevators along their
tracks upon request, and called a halt
upon the attempt Of the state of Ar
kansas to penaliZe an interstate rail-
road for failure to- supply cars enough
to accommodate interstate traffic.
Explaining the opinion of the court
in the Nebraska case, Justice Holmes
asserted that, although the state pos
sessed certain police powers and that
railroads must fulfill the purposes for
which their charters were granted, yet,
he added, railroads, like other own
ers of property, have rights that are
protected by the constitution" He
held their property could not be taken
without compensation, as he said the
law proposed to do in requiring the
railroads to build switches to the elo-
vatoTs in question.
Justice White, in announcing the
opinion of the court in the Arkansas
case, spoke of the right of the rail
roads "to sail under the flag of the
constitution" rather than the black
flag. In using this language in the
announcement of the opinion, Justice
White was referring to the decision III
the supreme court of Arkansas, which
discussed the fact that the st. Louis
Southwestern railway before the court
was unable to furnish more cars for
local traffic hnnanSn nf he
ments of the American Railway asso-
citation applicable to cars going out of
the state of Arkansas. The Arkansas
court had said that sit might be better
for the appellant to suffer these ills
than to sail under a black flag ana le-
fuse to send it's cars beyond its line -
In the written opinion, the tights OF
the railroads were phrased somewhat
differently from what they we're IN
the oral explanation of the court.
Among other decisions the court up
held the act of Arkansas pI ohibtting
drumming up business by physicians
and hotel keepers on trains in that
state.
An odd thing about the sitting was
the announcement as the decision of
the court of an opinion written by the
late Justice Brewer. The late justice
had prepared the opinion of the court
in the controversy in Louisiana over
the McEnery land script, and decided
it in favor of the holders of the script
In so doing he affirmed the judgment
of the supreme court of Louisiana in
the case of ]. w. Frellsen &, Company
against A. w. Crandall, register in the
land office.

EXCELLENT TRADE IN
WESTERN CANADA
SPLENDID CROPS, BIG PRICES,
AND PROSPEROUS OUTLOOK
FOR THE FUTURE.

Throughout all of Canada, and espe-
cially in the Western Provinces of
Canada, there is a buoyancy in every
line of business that is fully war
ranted by every condition. The crops
of the past year were what was ex-
pected, and the prices for grain of all
kinds, put the farmers in a class by
themselves. Many of them are indie
pendent, and many others have got
well started on the road The latest
reports are that seeding is we'll under
way in almost every district, and the
prospects are that vastly larger area
than that under crop last year will
be seeded early this spring In the
Lethbridge district, in Southern Al
berta, steam and gasoline outfits, hun
dreds of them, are breaking up the
prairie at a tremendous pace, but
they work night and day. AS soon as
it becomes dark, gangs are changed,
a head light attached, and on, on
through the night until the first
streak of dawn, these giant monsters
with their seven or eight gangs of
breaking plows, keep up the work.
Then the more modest farmer is put
ting in the longest hours possible with
his teams of horses or oxen. And
what will the Country be like in Au-
gust, when these fields have become
yellowed with the literally golden
grain. There will be one vast ex-
panse of wheat field. And there VIII
be market for it, because it is the
best grain grown, and the demand
will be everywhere. AS previously in
timated business throughout Western
Canada is sound and good. The grain
production of 1909 has been the great
factor in establishing the reputation
of Western Canada, and it is worth
| talking about. 1t surpassed all previ-
| Gus records, both in regard to quality
| and quantity, and such an achieve
ment was by no means easy. The
limit has not been reached, and a
| large average increase may be ex-
| pected during the next ten years.
There will be odd seasons when q
falling-off will occur, and it is the fall
| lng-off that causes alarms and panics
in the commercial world. The plains
have done their duty so far in the
output of grain and it would be rea-
sonable to make occasional allowances
! for slowing-up. The faster the rate or
| increase is now, the sharper will be
| the check when the production dimin-
| ishes. But there are some unreason-
able people who wonder why the
growth of one year is not continued
| during the next, and at an even faster
rate. These same unreasonable peo-
| pie are the ones who see flaws in the
situation as soon as an indication is
! given that the startling advances have
not been maintained.
