The local rates fixed 'by that state held unlawful and enjoined because the court found t^at because of them, carriers Vottfd have to change existing interstate rates. The state's regulation of its own internal commerce was for this rea son held to be, in effect, a.,regulation of interstate rates. Compelled to Reduce Rates' TVae reasons given were that on account of the location of cities on the boarders of Minnesota and adjoin ing states, the railroads would be •and iad been compelled to reduce their xates between .points in Minne sota and cities in other states by reason of the competition of the lat ter with cities in Minnesota thus Superior. Wisif on the border of Minnesota is practically the same distance from St. Pom as IXtluth, the two in fact, constituting one commer cial center. If the rates between St. Paul and DuTuth are reduced, it was eontendsd that a reduction of the rate between St. Paul and Superior was necessary and that this constituted a direct regulation of interstate com merce. Several such examples were set forth in Judge Sanborn's cou't. The court held that tie necessities of coonipetition. compelled the railroad so to reduce lt9 rates or "suffer a substantial toss in- revenue from its interstate business." Conditions' in the respect mentioned are not materi ally different in Minnesota, than what they are in other states, generally, according to the governor's .brief. Thus it is pointed out Kansas City, Kan., and Kansas City, Mo., are one commercial. center, as are Omaha. Neb., and Council Bluffs, la., East St. Louis. 111., and St. Louis. Mo., Cin cinnati, 0., and Covington and New port Ky. Mutt Appfr to All States "We say tiat if the principal an nounced is to be upheld," said the brief, referring to that condition, "it will undoubtedly be made to apply by showing a similar fact invirtually every state. The vice of the decision lies not in an incorrect statement of conditions'in Minnesota and adjoin ing states, but in its plain disregard of the .provisions of the federal cons titution which establish the relation between the motion and the state. The operation of these provisions was not made to depend on geography or convenience or competition. They cannot apply in one etate and not in another, according to circumstances as they may be found by the court, because they are vital principals which constitute the very structure of our duel form of government. Com merce is important but we do not live for trade alone and cannot afford to let out institutions) be sacrificed for the sake of it." An Inexorable Rule of Trade The governor contended that the basis of the Minnesota.case was that the regulation of interstate commerce In Time of Peace— v- Program for MON. and TUE.

"The Covert of San Celemente" Special picture for Holy Week A dramatic reproduction of an actual historic event. follows from the regulation, of local commerce through "an inexorable rule of trade" as.held' by Judge San born. In this] connection, the brief quoted Mr. Justice Brewer's opinioa in the case of Ames vs. Union Pacific. "Neither can I understand bow tae reduction of local rates as a matter of la'w interferes with interstate rates. It is true that the companies#may for their own convenience, to secure business or for other reason, rear range their interstate rates to make them conform to the local rate3 pre scribed by the statutes but surely there is no legal compulsion. Tae statute of the state does not work a change in interstate rates any more than an act of congress prescribing interstate rates would legally work a change in local rates. Railroad companies cannot plead their own conveniences of the effect of com petition between themselves and other companies in restraint of the othrwise undeniable powers of theBirths, state.", It is not held in the Minnesota case that the law was passed or the order of the railroad board made for the purpose of regulating interstate com merce, according to the brief, but only that they are invalid because of their effects on such commerce. It is contended by the governors that jn tae absence of such an intention or direct effort the state's action can not be overthrown by* the court on account of what it is held carriers will be held to do their interstate business, by the laws of the code adn competition. The brief quoted Chief Justice White from the 'Northern Se curities case on this princlpale. Stab Regulation Extends to all LJnet The brief declared "the right of state regulation extends to every business conducted within its borders although such business may also ex tend into interstate commerce." It tiien asked "if the doctrine is to be, that the laws of trade may make the performance of a lawful duty by a state in the regulation of corporations doing business therein, a regulation of interstate commerce, who is toS°mJh!n prescribe the test of the rule for ap plying it? Orshall we go to the logi cal conclusion that the laws of trade are higher than the constitution and must prevail without regard to the directness or extend of real or fancied interference with their fuW operation and effect?" "The well known history of the •formation and adoption of the consti tution as well ae its terms," the brief stated, "makes it certaintihafethe people of the states in conferring up on congress the power to regulate interstate commerce, to give to the national government an authority which would destroy their right to regulate their own commerce. And yet that Is the exact result of 'the decision In question, and further car ried to its logical conclusion, as under pressure prompt to come, it surely would be, it would make the state of the union impotene to perform those duties *Swhlch every commonwealth owes to its citizens." missioners Hinckley, Jackson, Lucas and Patterson were in attendance. A petition was received asking for the construction of a sewer on Broad, way between between Main and West Park Streets. The matter was re ferred to the commissioner of sewers, and the city engineer was instructed to prepare plans and specifications for the extension of the sewer as asked. The report-of the city weigher for the month of March was received and placed on file. It showed that a total of 2,003 loads had been weighed on the city scales during the past month, and that $200.30 had been turned over to the city treasurer.
