Dear Sir:

affairs of the Great Northern and the
Northern Pacific would doubtless be

What's the matters If you really
have any such ideas in regard to the
Northern Pacific, I think you should
give us a chance to explain away

RAILWAYS WIN BIG FIGHT.
Secure Title to 500, 100000 Worth Of:
Oil Lands.

mental railways won their fight for
title to some $500, 100000 worth of oil
lands when the supreme court held
void the clause in the patents making
the land revert to the government If
found to contain minerals.
The court held that the patents.
were irregular, but that they could
not be attacked collaterally by other
claimants, but could only be set aside:
by direct attack by the government.
Justice Vandevanter, for the court,
incidentally emphasized the claim:
that the governments time in which
it could take the patents had expired
in 1900 or 1901.

Wheaton Footprints: It transpires
that five Of the seven demands made

operators were guaranteed under se-

Men, women and children shot down

holding out for demands already
granted them by law. The governor

HOW TO CHOOSE LEGISLATORS

Wheel0ck's Weekly: It is a pity to
send legislator to St. Paul-or keep
him at home-on any one issue. The
choice should be on other lines; as,
for example, general fitness for legis-
lative life; personal character; past
training. No voter will find any one
man who agrees with him on all public
matters. It is unreasonable to adopt
as the test some one question, and
accept or reject men as they happen
to feel on that.

Selecting the Breed of Sheep

Farmers who contemplate the rails
ing Of sheep on their farms are urged
by the department to give CONSIDER
able thought to the selection OF a
breed. In all, there are 80 breeds OF
improved sheep that have peen
brought to fixed types. OF these, ~
are already we'll established in the
United States and others are gaining
in popularity. Each has It's own points
Of superiority and the farmer must o.
guided in his choice by the individual
conditions, bearing in mind, however,
the fact that any breed is superior to
no breed.
Although it is hardly to be expected
that every farmer in the neighbor-
hood will select the same breed OF
sheep, there are several advantages to
be derived from a number doing so.
For example, new rams can be pur.
chased for the common benefit when
anv individual owner might well hes1-
tate at the expense, and if the lambs
are ready in large numbers for market
at the same time they may be shipped
cheaply by the carload or the BUYERS
may find it worth their while to come
after them.
In selecting a breed it should be re-
membered that no system Of sheep
farming is likely to be long success
full which leaves out Of account either
wool or mutton. One or the other,
however, may well be emphasized ac-
cording to local conditions. Thus If
the pasturage is sparse, feed expen-
sive, and marketing arrangements
poor, wool will naturally be the first
consideration. On the other hand. Il
the conditions are more favorable. a
breed will be selected for it's mutton
qualities. Even then, however. there
lis a wide latitude of choice.
In order to assist thdnfarmer in this
choice, the department has lust nm.
lished in Farmers Bulletin 576.

DOES OWNING A HOME REDUCE
YOUR RENT2

An idea commonly held is that per-
sons who own their own homes escape
paying rent. On this point contribu-
tor to the July American Magazine
comments as follows:
"Owning a home did not end our
financial troubles. When I figured in
terest, taxes, coal, gas, electric light
and water, we were paying more per
month than we had paid in rent.'

Federal Supreme Court Sus-
tains Commerce Commission.
HAS RIGHT TO FIX TARIFFS
Highest Tribunal Also Declares vaiics
Long and Short Haul Clause Of
Interstate Commerce Law.

Washington, June 23.-The inter-
state commerce commissions So
called intermountain rate orders were
sustained as valid by the supreme:
court, which held, at the same time,.
that the long and short haul clause
Of the interstate commerce law is con-
|stitutional. Both had been attacked
by the transcontinental railroads.
The defunct commerce court, pass
ing over the constitutional question:
had annulled the orders on the ground
that the commission had no author
ity to issue blanket" or Zone" or
ders and might act only on the rea-
sonableness of specific rates.
The effect of the. intermountain-
rate orders is that such Western
cities as Reno, Spokane and Phoenix
will be forced to pay upon their
freight from the East the regular rate
through to the Pacific coast and then
ALSO another rate from the Pacific
back to their stations, because the
railroads are competing with water
borne traffic around Cape Horn or
through the Panama canal.
How Lines Can Charge.
They will pay, however, certain in
creases over the normal rates from.
certain zones. Thus the railroads
may charge no more than the regu-
lar rate on shipments originating in
the territory west of vertical line
drawn through St. Paul. ia
They, however, may charge an In.
crease of per cent on those original
ing between St. Paul and Chicago;
not more than Is per cent on those
between Chicago and Pittsburg and
not more than 25 per cent on those
between Pittsburg and the Atlantic
seaboard.
Those increases the commission
prescribed as reasonable because Of
the condition of the water competi-
ton.
AS result of the decision all ques-
ton is removed as to the right Of the
commission, not only to pass ON the
reasonableness of lower rate for a.
haul to a more distant city than to
a nearer one in the same direction,
but to fix how much the difference
may be.
Can Fix Rates by Zones.
It recognizes the power of the COM
mission to fix such rates by zones, as:
distinguished from taking up the con-
ditions surrounding each point Of

Chief Justice White announced the
unanimous decision of the court. . Hes
said the case turned largely upon the
construction and validity of the long
and short haul clause in the fourth
section of the interstate commerce
act as amended in 1910.
His conclusion was that the amend
ment in 1910 transferred from the.
railroads to the commission the
power hitherto reposed by congress in:
the railroads to determine what ex-~
emptions should be made from the
general prohibition against charging.

We are advised that the attempt
has already begun on the part Of GER
tain interests to attack Representative
Louis Vasaly because he cast the vote
of a free man in the house. Mr.. Vas
ally has the satisfaction Of bearing no
label on his brow-if anyone else de-
sires to be so branded, that is his at
fair. In Mr.. Buell's book on the last
legislature he says Of Mr.. Vasaly:
1'For every fundamental, demo-
cratic and progressive measure and
against every attempt at reactionary
legislation
That is the truth, and as he cam
paign progresses, it will be brought
home to the voters.

narration that has real curative value
almost sells itself, as like an endless

According to sworn statements and
