An unusual amount OF Significance
is attached locally to yesterdays rul-
ing by the Colorado supreme court
which ordered the Colorado & South
ern railroad to resume operations on
the Breckenridge-Como line. BY To-
cal shippers and statesmen the cage
is considered similar to that south OF
this city on the same line. The citi-
zcns of Folsom and Clayton entered
a strong protest when local train
was taken off aud at one time the
matter was considered by the local
Chamber of Commerce and an effort
was made to get the train reinstat-
ed. but without success. The New
Mexico people went so far as to start
"A boycott.
Statesmen. who make Trinidad
their headquarters were among
those who made the strongest pro-
test. claiming that it was almost
impossible for them to cover their
territory when the train was taken
off.
In the opinion in the railroad
case, written by Justice Gabbert,
and the most interesting rendered by
the supreme court for some time.
the power of the state railroad com
to control and regulate the
ra ilroads of the state is affirmed
and all questions of the constitu-
tionhlity of that body is dispellcd.
It. is the first time the supreme
court has definitely declared the
power of the state railroad commits

roads have lost so important case
