by the defense was that of constitu-

effect was handed down by one of

attorney general when Judge A. J.
Horsky in the district court of Lewis
and Clark county Thursday, April 3,
over-ruled demurrers of the railroads,
attacking the law on constitutional
grounds.
Judge HorSky's ruling is regarded by
Mr.. Rankin as a complete victory for
the state. Except for a possible ap-
peal 10 the supreme court to test the

the policemen not receiving military
