Desired.

LINCOLN. March is.--tspecial Tole-
gram 1.-The supreme court handed down
number OF opinions today. ths-lnost i'm.
portan. one being that In which II upheld
the legality Of the commission form Of
government statute. The court had
previously announced its conclusions, but
did not give It's reasons until today. The
case Is entitled state ex rel Baughn
against Ure. Justice Reese did not sit
in the case. The opinion is by Judge
Letton. The syllabus follows.
First. Where an act Is passed ~
original and independent legislation and
is complete in itself SO far as II applies
to the subject matter properly embraced
within its title, the constitutional pro
vision respecting the manner OF amend
ment and repeal Of former statutes has
no application.
Second. The mere fact that an act OF
the legislature adopts the provisions OF
prior acts by reference thereto does not
render the new act amendatory of the
acts to which reference is made. IL In
other respects 1t is a complete act 10
Itself
Third. The provisions OF the constitu-
tion dividing the powers OF government
into three distinct departments, legisla-
tive. executive and judicial and prohib-
iting any person Of the department from
exercising the powers belonging TO the
others, apply TO the government Of the
state and not TO the government of local
subdivisions such as municipal corpora
tions: therefore. the commission plan Of
government provided for in chapter IS
laws Isi1. which permits the exercise Of
all such powers by certain officers named
therein is not invalid as violating such
constitutional provisions.

Fourth. Where a law is general and
uniform throughout the state. operating
alike upon all persons and localities in
the same ciess. II is not open TO the OBJ
lection that il Is local or special Iegis-
lation.
There Is no requirement In the con-
stitutIon that the details of local govern
ment shall be the same in all cities Of like
population. Although under the operation
Of the act allowing the adoption Of the
commission plan OF government, some
cities, within the class described in the
act. may not adopt th- provisions thereof.
this does not render the act vioIative OF
the constitutional provision that no local
or special act shall be passed changing
or amending the charter Of eny tesn.

Sixth. The provisions Of section II.

shall contain more than one subject and

RAIL MERGER IN COURT
Government Files Briefs Against
Union and Southern Pacific.
CIRCUIT COURT IS CRITICISED
Aiiornex General wieLershsm De-
riRrcs that Inion raeific Il Com
petiter Of southern Read
with tsxceptioas.

WASHINGTON. March i2-The gov.
ersment fight 10 split tlle merger Of The
Union Pacific and southern Pacific rail
way systems opened today In the supreme
court ofs the United States. Altorney
General wiekersham ana his special as.
slstants, Frank h. Kellogg and Cordenlc
A. Severance filed u comprehensive brlel
OF their argument to be made orally III
court shortly after April /, when The
legality of the merger win be presented
for decision
In addition to the brief Of arguments a
second brief of coo pages was required
to set forth the facts In the case. The
court was told IN the second brief that
the railway combination now asked 10
be dissolved originated With Edward ii.
Hartman. Jacob H. Schiff and asso-
oiates, II brought under common con-
trol. the government charges. the Union
Pacific, the Southern Pacific, the San
Pedro. Los Angeles and Salt lake with
various ocean steamship lines, among
which was the Pacific Mail Steamship
company. which forms part OF the
Panama route from New York to San
Francisco. In. addition II Insured an in
fiuential voice il the management Of the
Atchison. Topeka 4 Santa Fe Railway
company. The government criticised Sc
verely the circuit court OF appeals Of
the Eighth circuit. which dismissed the
petition for dissolution OF the merger.
Judge Hook alone dissented.
Former Decision Criticized.
The brief declares the government can.
not understand how the court below got
the impression the government did not
claim that the Union Pacific was a COM
potitor OF the Southern Pacific for any
business originating nearer than 1000
miles or more away from its lines.
This statement is contrary TO the
clafm In the petition and IN argument
SAYS the brief. "and is contrary, to the
evidences Of scores OF Witnesses
The decision is attacked because the
court held the Union Pacific could not
be a competitor Of the Southern Pacific
for the reason that IT'S traffic moved TO
California points over the Southern Pa.
cifie from ogden.
rs It possible asks the brief THAT
the Union Pacific. with its thousands OF
miles OF railway and steamship lines,
reaching from the Missouri river to
Portland and san Francisco. has no ap-
precisble effect on commerce in its eons-
petition with another complete system
reaching the same general territory"
The government declares thai the trial
court was wrong in holding two railroads
could not be competitors unless the COM
peutiye business could he handled by
them wholly over their own rails. In
stead Of there being no impairment Of
service the government asserts that the
merger resulted in gross increase Of
rates, prevention Of construction OF new
lines Into competitive territory and a
sensible deterioration" Of service.
The governments attorneys contend
that the ''rlle Of reason" applied by the
supreme court In the Standard oil ard
tobacco cases was not to be applied in
passing upon this merger.
