SHORT CUT TO HIGHEST COURT
Judge Kohlsaat to Hear Argument
Tomorrow on Appeal for Writ.
Law Question Foremost.

CHICAGO, November 15.-Counsel for
the government and for the packers
under Indictment for criminal violation
Of the Sherman antitrust law, who
yesterday surrendered themselves to the
federal authorities and through their
lawyers obtained an order for a writ
OF habeas corpus, busted themselves to-
day in preparation of the arguments they
will present when the case is called at
10 o'clock tomorrow morning before Judge
c. C. Koillsaat in the United States cir
cult court.
Although Judge kohlsaats action on the
writ will be awaited with keen interest,
1t was the general opinion today that
whatever the ruling of the court may
be the whole affair will be delayed for a
long time. Whichever side wins it is GER
tain the loser will carry the cases to the
higher court. The so-called beef trust
case is for the present out of the juris-
diction Of the United States district court.
where Judge Carpenter had set the trial
of the packers for next Monday.
Speaking of the case last night, Judge
,kohlsaat said:

Would Strip Him of Power.

At the conference, the first question to
come up will he the proposition of taking
from Gov.-elect Goldsborough the power
10 name election supervisors and boards
of education in the counties by passing
a measure which will place this power
within the hands of commissions to be
named by the governor. AS Gov. CToth-
ers would be in office when this were
passed he would name the commissions
and they would continue in office for as
many years as the legislature saw fit to
provide.
1t is believed that this would meet the
approval Of Gov. Crothers for the reason
that he would demand bill framed
that it would take the appointments of
election supervisors and boards of edu-
cation out Of politics, comparatively, and
in this way practically insure their per-
manent removal from that influence.
Some who Will attend the conference are
of the opinion that IL the legislature
now removes these appointments from
political influences 1t would hesitate to
repeal in the future the bill which may
be passed this fall. In this way, some adj
yOcates of the plan say, permanent public
good would result

Retain Control of New Roads.

What is believed to be the next most
important point to be discussed at the
conference, from the viewpoint of some of
those who will attend, will be the propo-
sition of taking away from Mr.. Colds
borough the power to superintend the
work of the state roads commission. The
plan now being discussed is to revamp
the roads commission and give the MEM
bers to be newly appointed terms ranging
from two to six years. arranging 1T SO
that the republicans will not have a ma
jority on the board during the next four
years.
The governor will not discuss this nor
any other phase of the situation. but it Is
known that the roads question is the one
nearest his heart and that he desires to
see the commission continue its work.
unhampered by political influence. He
believes that he has accomplished this
by his appointments, and it is under
stood that he would be in favor of any
fair plan which would continue that
policy.
Next in Importance. and probably to
the public the most important point to
be discussed. will be whether or not
democrats should repeal the Wilson bal
lot law whether the measure should
BE applied to the entire state.

Law Question First.

This is one method of getting the law
question alone before the Supreme Court
without its being mixed with a question
Of fact. 1t Is done. as j understand it,
for the purpose of getting a construction
Of the Sherman antitrust law as II af-
fects the question involved in this case.
Interpretation OF the criminal prose
cution section of the antitrust law should
be secured as soon as possible to make
the situation clear to the business in
terests Of the country
Judge Kohlsaat said he would not re-
gard these proceedings as a review of
Judge Carpenters rulings. He said his
understanding was that Judge Carpenter
had not passed upon the questions in
volved in the application for a writ.
Judge Kohlsaat also said that ii was not
necessary that the government attorneys
be given notice by opposing counsel in
cases Of this kind.

Government Attorneys Cut Off.

Government attorneys were cut off
from much of the results of their long
investigation into the meat-packing in
dustry by the sudden move Of the pack
ers. Instead OF trial on evidence, the
fight, for time at least, must be con-
Quoted purely as an argument of law.
The fight thus becomes not a question
Of first issue as to the guilt or innocence
Of the packers, but plain attack on the
validity Of the Sherman act, according
to attorneys for the packers. They ex-
plain their position, briefly, in this wise:
The Supreme Court in the tobacco and
oil cases converted the Sherman law into
an illegal enactment. since the court by
placing each individual or corporation on
| q standard of its own, built up on it's
peculiar individual acts took away from
all individuals the possibility of knowing
how their acts were to be viewed by q
jury, Tin the light of reason that this
| Obscurity of definition of what constituted
crime was contrary to the eighth amend
ment of the Federal Constitution.
| In short, the petition, say the attor-
neys, charges the Supreme Court inter-
probation with multiplying the Sherman
law, in spite Of the courts action in or
dering the dissolution Of the American
Tobacco Company and the Standard Oh
Company Only an adverse decision to
the packers contention by the United
States Supreme Court will give the gov
eminent attorneys an opportunity to use
the material they have gathered for the
prosecution.
In the meantime the trial. scheduled
for Monday OF next week, probably will
be pontponed. pending the decision of the
higher courts on the new question.

the petition said:

rlTABLISHMENT OF
 A PARDON BOARD

Early in the next session of .ho General Assembly of t h e c.oto of Arkansas bill seeking to create a pardon board for the ctate will be offered, and at this lime there is every reason to be- Hove that it will become a law, yooardless of who may be chosen by the people to occupy the gov ernor's chair.
 That the pardon board system isa great improvement over the old plan of one-man power has been demonstrated beyond any question in those states where it has been given a try.out, In Georgia, for instance, the plan success in every way, and relieves the governor of the aw- full responsibility which former ly lay on his shoulders.
 In other states the plan has proven to be entirely satisfac- tory Through it's operation the wisdom of number of compe- tent men is brought to bear on each and every specific case, with the result that there is less op- portunity for mistakes than when one man is the sole judge of the facts and the law.
 We believe that there would be no pardons for criminal assault, pistol carrying, bootlegging and similar crimes in any state in the Union were the pardon board system in operation.
 The governors of the various states wouidsurely welcome such achange, in that they would be relieved of the necessity of pass ing finally on many cases involv ing the life or liberty of a fellow man and also of the criticism of the people which sometimes fol- lows his refusal to show execu
