way open for Minnesota shippers to
begin action TO recover $4,000, 900 TAX
en- by the railroads in freight over
charges since the law went into effect.
FORTY OTHER CASES INVOLVED.
Fer eighteen months the supreme
court has been wrestling with this i'm
portant legislation Affecting the
railroads of the country so vitality, and
involving a principal present in forty
cases. the decision has been awaited
with the most intense interest.
The issue related to the validity
of an order of the railroad and ware
house commission Of Minnesota IN
connection with the establishment OF
maximum freight rates and a . cent
passenger rate between points in the
state.
The Great Northern. Northern Pa
cific, and other railroads obtained an
injunction from the United States cir
cult court for the district OF Mime
sofa against the enforcement of the
order.
CONTENTION OF RAILROADS.
The main contention of the rail
roads in appealing TO the courts was
that the attempt of the state to fix 4
rate over an interstate road, even be-
tween two points within the state,
where the rate fell below the in,er-
state rate approved by the interstate
commerce commission covering prac-
tically the same haul, was a burden
upon interstate commerce.
The supreme court gave this con.
tention a body blow by saying that, in
the absence of any action by congress
regulating such matters. the state has
full authority to prescribe the rate be-
tween points within the state, regard
,ess of whether II is uniform with the
interstate rate covering the same
traffic zone.
DECISION MEETS WILSON'S VIEW.
With this view President Wilson is
in full accord. He was a member of
the governors conference held at
Spring Lake, Il. j., in the summer Of
1911. This conference adopted d
resolution presented by Judson Har
mon, then governor of Ohio. appoint
ing commission to prepare a brief
on behalf Of the states in support OF
the contention that the states had the
power to control their local rates
even over the interstate roads.
National interest in the matter was
further heightened by the fact that
Missouri, Arkansas, Kentucky, Ore
gon, and other states have fixed in
trastate rates 20 regulate shipments
within their borders.

He spied that house down by the
