the fact that the Aldrich tariff re

that E. B. Aldrich, a son of the sen

The democratic senator and repre-
sentative who in the next Legislature
votes against any good bill submitting
to the people a constitutional amend

people. With these tools in the hands

The Minnesota supreme court, in
an opinion written by Justice
O'Brien, has sustained the validity
of the law passed by the last session
of the legislature, requiring all
persons buying milk or cream, for
the manufacture of butter or
cheese, to take out license. This
means that approximately 1900
buyers must pay a fee of $1OO
forthwith or be subject to prose-
cution fo1 violation of the law. The
statute went into effect January
1st, and at that time about 1900 per-
sons in the state took the exam
ination prescribed by the dairy
and food commission. r. +. Cobb,
Saint Paul dealer, objected to
the statute, however, On the ground
that it was an unwarranted inter-
ference with business and hence
unconstitutional, and went into the
courts with the case. When this
action was taken, Andrew French,
dairy and food commissioner,
stopped the collection of all fees for
licenses, pending a decision of the
case Mr.. Cobb won in the lower
courts, but the state appealed to
the supreme court and has just
won a decision. Notices will be
sent out at once to all persons who
passed the required examination
that they may now get their license
on payment of the fee. A warning
will be issued to all others buying
milk and cream for manufacturing
purposes, that they must conform
to the statute. One dollar pays for
