MOELLER FAILS
TO secure new
TRIAL OF CASE

Minot. N. D., Dec. 20.-Dr. Thor
Moeller was taken to the North
Dakota penitentiary today to begin
serving his sentence of ten years for
the killing Of Miss Gina Lien of
Union, N. D..
The supreme court issued an order
refusing to grant the defendant a re-
hearing of the case, and he was i'm
mediately taken in charge by Deputy
Sheriff Ed. Kelley at Velva, N. d.
where he has been practicing recent
ly. DR.. Moeller had already learned
that the supreme court had decided
against him and was prepared to &C
the official.
Moeller's arrest and transportation
to the state penitentiary ends a long
legal battle that mas extended since
he was convicted of manslaughter in
connection with the girls death.
L.. w. Dale of Grand Forks, who
was also convicted in the case, served
a year in the state ~penitentiary, was
pardoned and died within a few
months of tuberculosis.
Miss Lien died in a Minot hotel Oct.
4, 1903, following an operation.
Details connected with the case were
sad, as the girl had been left alone

The Minnesota lower house of the
legislature needs a progressive speak
= er. We are glad the republican majority
will choose an honest progressive, and
Henry Rines seems to fill the bill. It is
not necessary to agree with all his
views in recognizing that he would be
fair, impartial and able. So far as the
democrats are1concerned, some Of the
exploits of saHeged democratic repre-
sentati7esF III past legislatures have
been disheartenihg1 and discou1aging.
1t .Hil be. up to- the democrats. in the
1913 legislature to show by their deeds
=and votes that the democratic party is
REALLY progressive. Unless the demo
cratic |party can show in state and slnSs:
ton, that it is progressive andof
allied with interests, it will passS of:
!existeh ce There will be feweESd h$SI l

was in the last. Perhaps if She People
had been better satisfied there mi ghta
have been more: It would ,ibex "a: cline

the game of standpat and reactionary:
republicanism, and we. hope no demo-.
cratic representative will 50 far forget
himself. BY their votes. on. the vital
issues will the democratic represen-
.tatives be judged, and they can do
more for their party by being right on
those issues and by joining with pro-

TAFT's MESSAGE ON FOREIGN

Washington, Dec. 3.-The success Of
"dollarr diplomacy" and appeal for
supplemental marine Legislation. to
make it more effective was the gist of
President Taft's message on foreign
relations, the first of series Of mes
sages which together will take the
place of the customary annual mes
sage read to congress which convened
yesterday.
The president also dealt extensively
With the necessity Of cooperation be-
tween the state department and con-
gress in protecting the finances of
South and Central American republics
andpreventing revolutions that en-
danger American capital and lives.
Discussing investigation Of foreign
farm methods, the president declared
that lack of capital and sufficient land
working and land owning population
are seriously hampering the develop.
ment@of our agricultural lands.''
A solution Of the matter was to be
found in the reports made by our dip.
lomatic Representatives and submitted
to the congress Of governors,:' now
meeting tn Richmond, Va, as to rural
credit plans s." 49,
( The president advocated the imme.
date passage Of the following meas
ures: ~. -, -
Immediate laws designed to protect
finances Of South and Central Ameri-
can republics. In this connection the
president laid blame for the recent
Nicaraguan revolution, which requir-
ed American Intervention and result
ed in the death Of seven American
marines and sailors on the senate q
failure to ratify the loan proposition.
Amendment Of the maximum and
minimum tariff plank to provide more
effective means Of meeting discrimin.
alton against American exports.
Further legislation to protect and
increase the seal herds at Pribiloff
islands, now protected for five years
under the seal treaty between the
United States, Great Britain, Japan
and Russia.
Passage of the anti-narcotic law,
defeated by congress after he had ad-
vocated it in special message, along
lines laid out by the International
Opium Congress at The Hague.
Reviewing the failure OF congress to
pass this law, the president said it
was a breach Of faith with other ma
tions who participated in The Hague
conference.
Establishment Of a merchant ma.

Declared Invalid BY
Supreme Court.
ORDERED TO. DISSOLVE.
Ruling ForbIds Union Pacific Vot-
! J !. Ing. Southern Pacific Stock q

Washington, Dec. 3.1The supreme
court, in an opinion announced by AS
:ot;ate Justice William r. Day, held
that the Union Pacific Railroad COM
">"ny, by the acquisition of 46 per
cent of the stock in the Southern Pa
:ific company, had effected combi-
1ation in violation of the Sherman
antitrust law.
: Justice Day, reading the opinion, in
Heated that the court would enter a
.3cree to dissolve the combination
and also an injunction to prevent the
-Jnion Pacific from voting Southern
Pacific stock. In announcing the opin-
i Justice Day said in part:
This court reaches the decision
nat the Union Pacific and Southern
life systems prior to the stock pur-
:I,f5se were competitors engaged in in
erstate commerce, acting independent
y as to large amount of such carry
.:,g trade, and that since the acquisi-
ton Of the stock in question the DOM
mating power of the Union Pacific
!-:s suppressed competition between
the systems and has effected a CON-
3.nation in restraint of interstate COM
nerce within the prohibitions of the
act.
In order to enforce the statute the
court is required to forbid the doing
in the future acts like those which are
found to have been done in violation
thereof, and to enter decree which
will effectually dissolve the combina-
ton found to exist in violation of the
statute.
Injunction Provided For.
1.-THE decree should provide an in
junction against the right to vote this
stock while in the ownership or con-
troll of the Union Pacific company, or
any corporation owned by it, or while
held by any corporation or person for
the Union Pacific company, and forbid
any transfer or disposition thereof in
such wise as to continue it's control
and should provide an Injunction
against the payment of dividends upon
such stocks while thus held, except to
a receiver to be appointed by the
court, which shall collect and hold
such dividends until disposed of by
the decree of the court
"As the court below dismissed the
bill it was unnecessary
.-cIe to consider the disposition OF
tiie shares OF stock acquired by the
Iaion Pacific company, which acquisi-
ton, we hold, constituted an unlawful
combination in violation of the anti
--!;st act In order to effectually con-
--1de the operating force of the CON-
such disposition should be
made subject to the approval and de-
cree Of the court; and any plan for
the disposition of this stock must be
such as to effectually dissolve the un-
l. Yful combination thus created"
