in the general route of the road, as
the right to so occupy streets and
highways must. be given to rail
road company expressly or by neces-
sary implication. 33Cyc. 1914.
Our next inquiry is as to whether
this generally recognized right of
railway companies to cross. highways
and streets has been in any manner
restricted by statute in this state.
The only statutory provisions to
which attention was called by coun-
sci, or which have been able to find
are sections 2S41 and 2916, r. l..
1905.
Fortunately the supreme court Of
this state has twice recently con-
strued Sec. 2S41 in this respect, in
Nj. G St. P. Sub. Ry. Co. v. Manitou
Forest Syndicate, 1O1 MINI. 1872. The
court says:
'Section 24S1 applies only
where it is the intention to make
use of the street or public
ground for the purpose of OPP
Grating such railway thereon;
that is, upon or along the street.
But, when it is the purpose to
merely cross a street, alley, or
public ground as an incident in
the construction Of railroad
through the country, then, un-
der the provisions of section
2916, the right of way may be
condemned, unless the company
and public authorities otherwise
agree as to the manner and
terms of crossing. To hold that
a franchise must be obtained as
a prerequisite to crossing
highway, road, or street would
put it in the power of the town,
village, or city authorities
throughout the state to practi-
cally block railroad extension.
Such is not our view of the stat
ute, and, since it does not ap-
pear from the petition that ap-
pellant proposes to occupy any
of the streets, alleys, or public
grounds of the village of Tonka
Bay for the purpose of operating.
it's railway thereon, it does not
become necessary to obtain a
franchise or right for that .pur-
pose from the village authOri-
ties"

Theory Brought Forward Through

Can a horse commit suicide? This

exertion. A day or two later the
horse found it's way to the same

if the horse went there purposely.

District Judge.
In his attached memorandum he
states:
1.-The first question to determine,
and really the controlling one,-is
whether the defendant railway COM
pany, without express authority, or
permission of any kind from the city,
has the right to lay it's tracks across
the public streets of the city. Be-
fore entering upon discussion of
this question it is we'll to bear in
mind that it is admitted that the
defendant railway company is a cor
poration created under and in pur-
suance of the general laws of the
state for the purpose of constructing
and operating it's line of railway from
a point outside through the city of
International Falls to the Interna-
tional boundary in the Rainy River,
with such corporate powers and priv
ileges, and only such, as it has the
right hereunder to exercise for that
purpose.
Seeking, first, to ascertain the gen.
eral rule of law upon this subject
without reference to statutory enact
ment, we find that Lewis in his work
on Eminent Domain, on page 649
lays down the proposition, which is
we'll supported by authorities cited
that "a railroad has an implied au.
thority to cross highways and streets
and the consent of local authorities
is not necessary unless required
which is sometimes the case. Au.
thority to construct, railroad be.
tween certain termini does not au'
thorize the appropriation of high
way longitudinally; but the right tt
cross highways is given by necessary
implication" "Authority to con
struct a railroad between designated
points, the exact location along such
route being left to the company's dis
cretion gives an implied authority tt
cross public highways which sale
route may intersect, and such cross
ings cannot be prevented by munich
pal corporations through which thu
road is laid; but it does not. prims
facie confer the right to occupy Ion
gitudinally streets or highways lying

Governor-elect Hoke Smith, of Geor-
gia recently received an anonymous
letter from a party in New Orleans
putting him on to a plot of two specuV
lators whose purpose is to spread the
boil weevil all over Georgia and the
Carolinas. This man under a promise
of secrecy was shown one box,
which contained five thousand of the
living insects and the man was told
that they had one hundred thousand
of them. The object of the men are to
distribute the pests and buy up a
large portion of the cotton crop. Eff
forts are being made to apprehend

HELPFUL HIRAM

It was day of ice and sleet: all
glary was the village street, and gents
and ladies tumbled down, and went a.
whizzing through the town. Six times
| broke my collar bone, and / was full
of grief and groan. Six times landed
on my head, and breathed wish that
/ were dead. Six times fell upon the
walk, and slid in anguish round a
block. And then I reached (and not
too soon) a stretch of walk with ashes
Istrewn; there man might use his legs
and feel he didn't need to dance and
Old Hiram's crippled, bent and sick.
He's lonely, feeble, tired and gray; he
has no wealth to give away, and yet
he tries, the best he can, to benefit
his fellow man. And when he sees
men whizzing past, their coattails
Tapping in the blast, the victims of a
| day of sleet, he sprinkles ashes on the
street, and men with broken collar
bones are blessing him, in earnest
tones. You often hear some geezer
say if he had wealth to give away,
he'd do so much to help the race;
he's simply talking through his face.
You do not need a pile of dough to
help lessen earthly woe. Just look
around you, and you'll view thousand
things that you may do.

A painfully pathetic story comes to
us from New York, that city noted
for its great wealth and abundant
charities Frank Bernard thirty-two
years old, wife and two children,
were found dead lying in a bed to-
gether. The husband had the two
lovely little children taken from their
cribs and folded in his arms, while the
wife was lying on the outer edge of
the bed. While he had gotten the
children and tucked them away
in his arms in the bed she had gotten
up and turned on the gas jet and thus
they put an end to the great terrors
and tortures of want. Not crumb
was found in the room and the last
cent had been spent. The husband
lost his position, could not obtain
work, too proud to beg, too honest to
steal, it is presumed that they entered
into a pact to end it all and relieve
the children from the pangs of hunger.
We have observed nothing more pitt
full.

Mr.. Louis w. Duval has returned
from Jacksonville, where he served
as proxy for Mr.. William Hooker on
the state democratic executive COM
mittee. He says that while the Blount
and Bryan men did not fall on the
necks of each other as a manifesto
ton of love and affection, the meeting
was said to have been, if not harmon
ious, at least not acrimonious, and, with
the exception of the protest filed by
Mr.. Blount, which is general in it's
terms, the nomination of Mr.. Bryan
is acquiesced in. We do not believe
that the people will care to go behind
the returns of the state committee, nor
that the state committee will have any
desire to go behind the returns of the
county committees, nor the county
committees of the precinct commit
tees. There may have been irregu-
Iarities, but where they favored one
faction in one precinct they may have
favored the other faction in some 9th
er precinct, SO we suppose irregulari-
ties, as well as honors, are about even
and the action of the state committee
will be taken as finality We want
to get away from fact1onal politics as
much as possible.
