government they have themselves
adopted and require their agents in

"Only the short-sighted, and they
are relatively few, will believe that
commerce among the States can gain
any real or lasting advantage at the
expense of local commerce, or that
local commerce can thrive long, If at
all, from interference with general
commerce, even though, by the indi-
rectness of its effect, such interior
ence may escape the condemnation
of the law.

WASHINGTON April THE right
OF sovereign state to regulate bust
ness, including railroads, within its
borders was the burdine of brief
which Governors Harmon of Ohio,
Hadley of Missouri, and Aldrich OF
Nebraska were permitted to file in
the Supreme Court today as friends
of the court.
The plea of the governors, all OF
whom have been active in railroad
legislation and litigation was in the
appeal from United States Circuit
Judge Walter Sanborn's decision in
the Minnesota Railroad rate case in
volving the right of state to regu-
late commerce within its borders.
The three governors were empow-
cred to act as a committee on state
rights at the conference of governors
at Spring Lake, N. Y, last Septem-
Der, and were then authorized to seek
to intervene in the Minnesota rate
case.
The controversy in the courts ac-
cording to the brief which was draft
ed by Governor Harmon and which
was Immediately filed with the clerk
of the court, involved no conflict be,
tween the States and the Federal au.
thority but the more extraordinary
question of whether railroad rights
supercede and dominate state rights
The decision of Judge Sanborn, the
brief contends, took the power OF
states to regulate railroads from the
states and left the railroads free to
charge whatever rates they please in
their traffic within the states. He
took the stand that if state can
not regulate the railroads within its
borders then there was no power tC
regulate them at all.
Let the People Regulate.
In conclusion the governors dis
cussed the broad questions of state
and interstate commerce and said;
''In this, as in all other cases where
inconvenience arises from the div;

BIBLE SOCIETY SEES
NATIONAL PERIL FROM BUDDHISM

NEW YORK, March 25.--At the an
uual conference of secretaries of the
American Bible Society, recently held,
it was reported that in the year &c.
O55 copies OF the scriptures in seven
ty languages were distributed in this
country by the snciety's nine secretar-
les and 1896 workers From it's foun-
dation the society has distributed over
ninety million copies. One of its sec
retaries, the Rev. A. Wesley Nell of
San Francisco, talking for puhlica-
ton at the conference, gave some
striking information concerning the
Pacific coasts aim for the European
Immigrant and the coasts experiences
with Buddhists. He showed elabo-
rate pictures illustrative of the latter
work. Said he:
New York is to become the back
door and San Francisco the front door
of this immigrant business. The Pa
mama canal open, immigrants from Eu-
| rope will avoid the long and expen-
slve railroad haul by taking ship to
the coast direct. There will be a new,
and larger Ellis island, but it is to be
in Golden Gate hgrbor, not on the At.
lantic seaboard. Already forty devel.
opment stations have been opened in
Europe designed to instruct immi-
grants and turn the tide of travel
| from New York through the Panama
canal and into San Francisco Bay.

 The Bridge Commissioners offered to permit the Taxpayers Protective Association to name the assessors of the proposed Free Bridge Districf and John NJ. Oracle, one of the most prominent of the anti-Free Bridge people, thought the proposition was . good one and was will ng to agree tn it. but the othsr leaders in the anti-Free Bridge fslLft refused to arree to anything and were not will ling to agree to any concessions of any kind, preferring nof to compro- mise.
 There is no need of unnecessary alarm on the part of the people be- cause of the opposition to the Free Fridge. Thers viii be no great il feeling after the Free Bridge is h,,;,t Wha4 differences that exist a this time will sappear with the con-
