Atahtant District Attorney Hush considers
Uncase against Attorney GIIIls na a much
Ihpro serious ono. Ho remarked to tile nr-
\isfcd attorney yesterday afternoon : "Olllls ,
tile offense of these otlit-r men Is ml enor-
inpnx , but yours Is a pretty rcrloua ease and
! l will bo thoroughly Investigated. " II ap-
pcam that Olllls appeared yesterday on the
Bccne of action , and told the tramps to stay
where they were , on top of the freight cirs.
Ho aft&urcd them that the olllcers who wore
calling upon-them to get down had no power
to eject them from the trains. He said ho
would see that the tramr ' cases were looked
utter If any attempt to arrest them should
Ifo made , and promised to see the men
through all right. United Statto Cominls-
Bloner Andirson and Asslstint District At
torney Hush called upon Olllls to oenso his
Incendiary harranguo , warning him that ho
inlglit be arrested blmKclf. He ecouted at
the Idea of anyone placing him under ar
rest and told ( he tramps to smash the first
man that tried to put them oft the freight
train.
Soulng that Olllls had no intention ot de-
fllstlng from his course , Mr. Hush ordered the
deputies to place him under nrrcst. Ho
showed light , but wan quickly overpowered ,
and taken Into the train. Ho was loft alone
for a fo.w mlnutca , during which time his
humlllallnn wan madd campletu. He begged
Commissioner Anderson to release him , and
finding liln pleadings of no avail , asked to be
nilcaoeil on bonds for his appearance at
fipurt , saying that lm had an Important case

GHRAT PALLS , Mont. , July 23. Frank
Moss , an old time miner In this section , who
four years ago was one ot a party of
Americans to visit the Klondyko country ,
returned today , and tells a story of horror
and .starvation seldom equalled In modern
novels. He describes Klondyko as a plnccr
mlno sevm miles long , located In a sink ,
walled In by boulders ot rock 3,000 foot high.
Gold , ho says , abounds , hut no ordinary
man can Bland the hardships of the un
civilized rcglou. When M6ss left hero four
years ago ho was a sturdy fellow over & 1\
feet tall. Krom hardships and privations he
Is a cripple for life and badly broken in
lioalth. In three years ho saw over 2,000
graves made In the Klondyko basin , a large
majority dying from starvation. The steam
ship companies bring In all foods , and allow
no private Importation. Consequently It Is
not uncommon to go for weeks with hut a
scant supply , and for days entirely without
food. The gold brought In last week to
Seattlu , Mesa says , does not repreaojit the
finding of Individual shippers , but a largo
portion of It was confiscated from the effects
of the 2,000 miners who fell a prey to the
hardship * . At tlio death of a. man possessed
of dust his body Is burled without a coffin
and the dust divided among these who care
for him.
With proper rellofs established by the gov
ernment. Mess says gold can be taken out
at tbo rale of $2,000,000 a month. The richest
strlko has been made by a 21-year-old boy
named George llornblower of Iiidla apolls.
In the heart of a barren waste , known as
Uuulder Kleld , he found a nugget for which
the transportation company gave him $5.700.
Ho located his claim at the find , and In four
months had taken out over $100,000.
The richest section of Alaska , Mots says ,
la na yet undeveloped. It is 100 miles from
Klondyko , and "known as the Dlaek Hole of
Calcutta. U Is Inhabited by ex-convicts of
Bohemia , and murdem and riots take the
place of law and order. A few months ago
Klondyko organized a Justice committee nnd
its law provalla there now. With the great
crowds preparing to go to the scene now.
Moss says hunger and suffering will bo great
when added to other hardships to bo over
come by thos ? who survive.
Mess returned with $6,000 In dust , and
loaves tomorrow for his old home at Du-
buquc , la. , where ho will spend the re
mainder of1 Ms years.

WASHINGTON. July 23. Captain C. II.
Hooper , commanding the Bering sea patrol
fleet , in a report to the Treasury depart
ment , dated Oonalnska , July C , says the
Alaska Commercial company's steamer Ex
celsior arrived at that port on July 4 with
about forty miners from the Yukon dis
trict and about $500,000 In gold bullion.
Continuing , ho says :
"The Excelsior brings wonderful accounts
of rich discoveries in the Klondyko , or Rein
deer river , where fortunes are being made
In a few weeks. According to these reports
nothing has over been discovered on the
continent approaching it in richness. The
Klondyke'ls ' a tributary of the Yukon , a few
miles above Forty Mile , and is wholly within
Canadian territory ; Gold wna discovered
there last autumn and during the winter at
tracted miners from all directions. It is
said that over 2,000 men are located nt Dawson -
son the principal town , while Circle City ,
Forty Mlle and other places arc nearly do-
sorted. Owing to the sudden influx of people -
plo provisions were high , but so "far as I
can learn there was no actual suffering.
Of the forty passengers on board returning
from these mines , It is said none .have losa
than $8,000 , and some have as hlsB as $50-
000. Others , who have made tlicfr. , pile , nro
coming on the'Btcamer Portland. " Two pack
ages of coarse gold , one containing $120 nnd
one $130 , are shown as the result-'of wash
ing one pan of dirt each. The principal
mines arc on the Bonanza and Eldorado
ureoks , small branches of the Klondyko , and
extend in the aggregate sixteen or eighteen
miles , lloing in the bed of the rlvor , the
claims can only be worked In the winter ,
when the outsojl Is frozen , The pay dirt Is
molted by n lire built In the shaft nnd the
gold extracted by the usual washing out
process. A claim Is 500 feet In the dliec-
tlon of the river and from bank to bank ,
provided It dbeij not exceed 604 feet. The
cost of recording a claim Is $15 and the
yearly rental $100. Claiics have sold as high
as ? 50,000 nml a still higher prlco has boon
refused for others. "

SAN FRANCISCO , July 23. Among the ar
rivals from.Alaskj on the steamer Beitha
was Dr. C. F. Dlckeiifon of Kodlak Island ,
which lies Just at thn head of Cook's Inlet.
Ho says the gold excitement nil over thu
territory of Alaska IH something unprece
dented , and that people are flocking to the
Klonuyke In a way that thrcattna to depopu
late many of the trading pcwt and coast
towns. ,
"When I left Kodlak , two weeks ago , " said
Dr. Dlckenson. "tho people were leaving all
that t' tlon of country and flocking in the
direction of thq Klondyko. In a way , the
situation is appalling , for many of the In-
dustiics are left practically without the
means of operation. Mlncn tint aie paying
handsomely at Cook's Inlet have been de-
BPrted. In njy opinion there are Just a.j good
placer diggings to bn found at Cook's inlet
aa in tlio Klondyko region , There U not a
foot of ground In all that country that doea
not contain gold In more or Ices appreciable
quantities. The great trouble IIUH been , that
people luvo not had either the couragu or
opportunity , I do not know which , to thor
oughly prwpect the country. I think that
In another month the country about Cook's
inlet will Ijo practically deserted. Them Is
room there for thoiwands of men , and there
Is certainly no'beuei" ' place In the world for
a poor man "

SAN FRANCISCO , July 23. The demand
for transportation to Alaska has Increased
iu rapidly that the Pacific Const Steamship
company has decided to place another
steamer on the northern route. The steamer
tate of California will leave here on the
27th , connecting with the George W. Elder
it Portland on the 30th. Advices from the
lorth today have been received to the ef-
'cct that all accommodations on the steamer
Topeka , which leaves Puget Sound on the
. ! Sth , and the Alkl , which will sail In August ,
have been sold and that no further trans
portation can be bad on cither vessel.
In order to meet the demand for trans
portation from this city to Alaska , the North
American Tianaportatlon and Trading com-
> auy haa chartered the steamer Cleveland ,
which runs between this city and sound
ports. It will leave for St. 'Michael's direct
tomorrow afternoon. It la considered ex
tremely doubtful that upon their arrival at
St. Michael's the Cleveland's passengers will
tie able to secure any means of transportation
at this late Benson up the Yukon. The
Alaska Commercial company has chartered
the schooner James A. Garflcld to carry sup
plies to St. Michaels.

WASHINGTON , July 23. In view of the
present niah of travel to the Klondyko gold

Alaska , and land passengers and baggage

notified at once of the decision to create a
aubport of entryat Dyea for the benefit ot

SJLVER CLIFF , Colo. , July 231. If a find
which has just been made here , turns out
as expected Colorado may have a Klondyke
of Us own , and this old Ouster county
chap will take on a new life. The discovery
was made yesterday by Joseph Foulk , a
well known Ouster county man , who has
been looking over the ground about half a
mlle southwest of town and near the water
works. Foulk got out some quartz rock
heavily charged with sylvanltc. The rock
( bowed some line gold. It was brought to
town and tested. Some of the sylvanlte was
roasted and brought out great gold nuggets.
The news of the discovery very quickly
spread and within a few hours there was a
great rush to the new diggings.

PITTSnUIlO , Pa. , July 23. The situation
In this district has not materially changed
today. The efforts of the arbitration com
mission have been eo far successful that a
call for a meeting- operators on Tuesday
next haa been Issued. It Is signed by Vf. 1' .
Do Armllt , for thd Now York and Cleveland
Gas Coal company ; J. U. Herbe , for the
Ohio and Pennsylvania Coal company ; 13. A.
Young , for M. A. Hanna & Co. ; J. W.
Schlcndobcrg , for the E. U Robbing com
pany , and other leading operators ot the
to the notice ot a
dUtrlct. These namcu
meeting Is sufficient guaranty for the suc
cess ot the mofrtUig In point of attendance.
The dnto for the conference has
will bolUcd
not been set , but It
for some day within the next week , nnd wl
probably be Monday or Tuesday. The call
for the meeting will bo sent out tomorrow.
The greatest dlHlculty found by the arbi
trators In pushing the movement haa been a
certain lethargy on the part ot the operators.
The cause of this state of affairs Is the fact
thnt they look upon arbitration as Ineffectual.
They have little hope of settling the strlko
by this means , and nro therefore slow to act.
In no case , however , has there been direct
opposition to arbitration.
General Little , president ot the bo.ird ,
stated today that the matter was now very
near a climax. After this meeting had been
held , he thinks there will be but little dlHl
culty In completing other arrangements for
the selection of arbitrators. General Little
says the miners have all expressed their ap
proval of the agreement , and are ready to
do all in their power to bring the question to
an early settlement. The agreement as pre
pared Is not entirely satisfactory to some
of the operators In all Us provisions , but the
objectionable clauses will bo taken up at the
meeting nnd changed , to suit the desires of
all concerned.
GOING INTO COURT.
Besides what they term a battle for bread ,
the oiliclals of the United Mlno Workers
tiavo arranged to make a battle In the courts
for money. It will be for money In the
muds of certain operators In the district kept
from the wagea ot men who went on n
strike. In accordance with Instructions re
ceived from National President M. D. Hatch-
ford and the members of the national ex
ecutive board , the local district olllclals have
placed the matter In the bauds ot their at
torneys and suits are to be brought for more
than $12,000 duo the strikers. The suits will
bo brought on the validity of the ironclad
contracts which the men signed. In these
contracts It was acreod , as a guaranty of good
faith on thegpYii bf the employe , that the
employer should [ retain 10 per cent of the
employe's wrfSea. ' When the men struck this
money was 'declared forfeited and withheld
from them "Vy the operators. The plan Is
to get one St-Jtho men who has'lost ' money
to bring sulcJblitore a Justice of the peace.
The mlners'ijpnUalzatlon will push It from

hauling mucn West Virginia coal. Ho pays
hU company has on hand coal 'enough to

gor for M , A. Hanna & Co. , received a trie-
gram today to the effect that the operatives
at the Rcynoldbvllle and Watt < on ml HIM In
the Wrat Virginia flelda had Joined the
strikers. For some reason West Virginia
coal Is not arriving In Cleveland In any con
siderable quantity. It would appear that

llie city bought ncvcral cars ot blacksmith
coat at $3.25 a ton , where It hid previously
burned alack at 95 cents and $1 per ton.
COLUMIIUS. O. , July 23. President

J. W. Uea , second vice president of the
Urotherhood of Painters and Decorators Is
here at the expense of his brotherhood to be

WHEELING , W. Va. . July 2.1. The otrlko
movement In the Kanawha valley and all
along the Norfolk & Western road Is para
lyzed. The orgjnlzera have nearly all de
parted , and those remaining are making no
headway. All but one of the Kanawha pott
coal mines nre working nearly full force
where fifteen were reported struck yester
day. At Klkhorn. Thacker , Flat Top and
Pocahontas all but those who have been re
fused work , are In the mines. The operators
are doing all In their power to Inaulato the
men against the magnetism of Debs and
Ratchford. They are meeting with little
success In getting the men out to hear them ,
nnd the strlko Is practically lost In the
state.
KANSAS CITY , July 23. A convention ot
Kansas mlnem will bo held at Plttsburg.
Knn. , tomorrow , to dlscuso the question of
striking In sympathy with their eastern
brethren Unless there Is a radical change
in the. situation between now and the tlmo
the convention assembles , It Is believed the
delegated will bo almost unanimously op
posed to a strike at this time. Ono con
tingency Is put forth which may arise and
materially change the sentiment and load the
Kansas miners to vote for a suspension.
Should the rumor that Is afloat that the rail
roads are buying large quantities of western
coal for shipment east , to bo stored away
In case the strike Is prolonged , prove true ,
the sentiment favoring a strlko would , It is
urged , by some , become very strong.
General Southwestern Agent H. L. Har
mon ot the Burlington this morning reIterated -
Iterated emphatically the statement that his
road has not , nor has not contemplated , any
such act-Ion as had been staled. "It would
bo suicidal for us to make such a move , "
said Mr. Harmon , "and nothing has been
further from our purpose than to ship east. "
Mr. Harmon admitted that his road had
been buying coal In largo quantities at Weir
City , Kan. , as well as at Duluth , Minn. , re-
cwitly , but declared that It was for their
own protection.
T. B. McGregor of Plttsburg , Kan. , na
tional organizer of the Knights ot Labor
and president ot the United Mine Workers
for Missouri and Kansas , said lu an 'Inter
view today :
"Ratchford will order the western coal
miners to come out. I'm sure of It , but
they'll never do it It I can help It. I'll lose
my ofllclal head In this fight before they
do. "
McGregor recently returned from Colum
bus1 , O. , where he had been In consultation
with President Ratchford of the United Mine
Workers.
"It Is my firm conviction , " continued Mr.
XfcGregor , "that the best thing to do Is to
lot the western miners continue at work nnd
ask them to contribute 25 cents a wc k to
the eastern men who are out. But that Is
not Ratchford'iJ Idea. I know Just as well
0.3 If I had received my Instructions what
they will be. They will be to call tae west
ern miners out at the Saturday convention at
PltMnirg , Kan. "
McGregor gives several reasons why , In
his mind , the western men should not go out
now. In company with William Crawford of
Springfield , Ind. , and J. W. Wilson of Vir
ginia , both members of the executive councir
of the United Mine Workers of America , Mc
Gregor will attend the Pittsburg , Kan , , con
vention tomorrow.
ST. JOSEPH , July 23. The prospects for a
prolonged strike of the coal miners appear
to have alarmed the railroads and all lines
entering this city are accumulating all the
fuel possible. The 'Burlington ' road began
early In the fight , and now has several hun
dred carloads In the yards In St. Joseph.
All roads are acting selfishly in the matter ,
and each line buys for only Its own use.
No coal has been shipped east , and it is said
none will be , unless it is for use on eastern
divisions of the railroads owning the coal.
SPRINGFIELD. 111. . July 23. The attempt
to arbitrate differences betweeir employers
and employes at the Springfield Iron com
pany's and Springfield Mining & Tile com
pany's shafts by the State Board of Arbi
tration today proved a failure. Of the twen
ty-one miners In the former and thirty-six
In the latter , only six and two , respectively ,
appeared. Four from the former company
withdrew their names and one from the lat
ter. The minors say they understood the
scheme was for general arbitration as a part
of the conference held in Plttsburg laat
week. The operators have been paying 30
cents and offered to pay -10 cents for a year.
The board refused to allow ex-Secretary Guy-
mon of the Illinois Mine Workers to appear
for the absent men , though ho hold a pot-ket-
ful of proxies.
SHELBURN , Ind. , July 23. The miners at
Alum Gave mines quit work today. Th's
will make the suspension complete In Sulli
van county , as these mines control the situ
ation here.
CANONSUURG , July 23. No trouble has
yet occurred at McGovern's. No effort was
made by the strikers to prevent operations
at the mines. .About 300 of the strikers
returned to Miller's Run and Bower Hill tha !
morning to secure food nnd reinforcements.
A heavy rain fell last night and very much
dampened the ardor ot the strikers , as they
were camped In an open field. Ordera were
given by the leaders this morning to the
effect that all entrances to the mine are to
be closely guarded and any miners caught
going to work would bo halted and entreated
to Join the strikers. If they refuse force
will be u. ed. Should this plan fall more
stern efforts will be made to compel the
miners to join the ranks. A brass band and
drum corrn enlivened the scenes about the
camp this morning , and a march was mndo f
to the mlno through the principal streets
and return. I
About forty deputies are on guard at Cook's
mined. The strikers are quiut and orderly , |
however , and do not make any threats of
violence , yet they are determined. No firearms - '
arms wcro noticed about the camp. Just
what the outcome will be , If the firm of Cook j
& Son Insists on operating Its mine , can
only bo surmised. There Is no indication of
trouble before tomorrow morning , when the
miners enter the pit and operations are re
sumed.
MIDDLESBORO , Ky. , July 23. The mlncra

QUESTION OF JURISDICTION
Attorney General Sucgosts Collusion in tbo
Stock Yards Case ,
TAKING CASE FROM THE STATE COURTS
Currr < iHiiit1 ( < Mi'i > SlinuliiK DlrL-Hiiri of
Company Itofuni * to ContoM , T
m ; tinl.aiv Would
Itiiln Tlivlr Uunlm-KB.
Mr. 'Woolworth resumed his argument
In the stock yards case yesterday morn
lug , and devoted the major portion of
his tlmo to showing that the luisliioss of the
stock yards was of an Interstate character ,
and therefore not amenable to the laws of
this state. Ho stated that a very smnll per
cent of the luminous originated vlthln the
state , and the court could not very well
bold the law to bo good so far as It affected
that small per cent and not good as to thu
larger per cent.
He read decisions In a number ot coses In
the United States courta on cases referring
to interstate commerce to sustain tbo post
lion taken In regard to the case at liisue ,
several of them being on suits the outgrowth
ot prohibition laws. Thcso decisions held
that goods nhlpped from outside the state
did not lose their Identity and become a part
of tbo property ot the state until the actual
nalo and transfer had boon made , holding
that until this sale and transfer had bc ii
made thn state laws could not operate.
On this point Mr. Woolworth said that the
heaviest business of the stock yards was on
shipments of stock from outside the state ,
and thnt this stock did not become subject
to the laws of this state till after the sale
had been made , and that then there was
nothing left In the buslncrfl ot the yards to
regulate ? .
Another largo share of the business of the
yards grew out of shipments made from
polntrt within the state to points outside , but
which were stopped at tbo yards in South
Omtilm while In transit , and sold there , al
though such action might ho contrary to the
way bill accompanying the shipment. Ho
held that this wan altio nn Interstate transac
tion , and that the yards In tlielr dealings
with this clahs of business were engaged
In Interstate business and not subject to
the laws of the stnto. Mr. Woolworth con
cluded this section of his argument at noon ,
and resumes on other lines this afternoon.
NOT SUHJECT TO REGULATION.
In the afternoon Mr. Woolworth took up
the proposition that the ntook yanu ! were
a. private corporation and not oubjoct to
regulations by the state legislature. Ho
showed that the establishment of the stock
yards made it possible for conditions to
exist whlcb might even seem to call for
regulation. They created their own business.
They were established with a capital of
between ? 200.000 and $300,000 , which has In
creased to $2,500,000. They originally cov
ered 159 acres , but now cover about 22.1)
acres. It was the will , enterprise and push
of the ofllcers of the Block yards company
which has made it ponsible for this growth
to have been made.
lie said the value of a property could not
bo Estimated by what it cost or by what It
could bo sold for , but by what it earns ;
When the yards were established many
local capitalists who are considered con
servative men said that It would bo a Icslng
Investment , and for that reason counsel hold
that men who take great risks In enterprises
of this kind arc entitled to an adequate re-
'turn. '
'turn.His
His denounced legislative enactment as
the most unjust , tyrannical and brutally
despotic abuses of power ever witnessed In
a free country. It wae the putting of the
foot upon with Intention to crush out of
existence mon who had risked their money
not solely for their own .benefit.
Attorney General Smyth , tor the state ,
began his argument by saying that all might
agree or disagree upon the right or policy
of such legislation as that cubrnccd In the
bill under controversy , but that was not the
point at lasuo. The only question this court
had to do with was the power of the legis
lature to para the bill.
QUESTIONS COURT'S JURISDICTION.
He then questioned the Jurisdiction of the
court in the case , as there was evident collu
sion between the plaintiff stockholder and
the stock yarda company to enable them to
get the case in the United States court. Ho
read from the bill of th-e plaintiff in which
the latter1 in a letter to the directors of the
company state I that ho believed the bill was
I unconstitutional , and offered to furnish a
| I bond to the company to indemnify It for any
I damages thnt might accrue If It would light
i the law. The answer of the directors was
I also read in which they admitted the state
ment made by plaintiff ; said they bcllovod
1 ' the operation of the law would ruin their
business , yet declined to accept the offer of
, the plaintiff to furnish an lii'lemnlfylng bond.
I Ho cited a derision by Judge Brewer In a
Michigan pasyengor rate caao , where a suit
was brought to compel the railroad ? to put
in the rate provided by law. When the case
came on for hearing It developed that the
plaintiff was a friend of the railroad , and that
there was really no contest , and the court
threw it out. Mr. Smyth culled attention
to th ? fact that , while tbo stock yards com
pany was the principal defendant In the ac
tion now before the couit , It was not repre
sented by an attorney.
I i Mr. Smyth also renewed the points made
at the time ho filed his motion to liavn the
case dismissed eo far as It made him a de
fendant. He paid that the rule of the courtn
was that an injunction should not be granted
unless the cause was cljar. The bill lu thU
C.IEU , said the attorney general , was about to
enforce the law , whereas the attorney gen
eral had expressed no opinion an to what lie
would do In reference to the law. Ho s.iid
ho could not enforca It under Its own pio-
' visions unlesa Koine ono complained against
the company. Ho said the plaintiff sought to
nnjoln him from doing ijomutblng ho had ox-
presbed no Intention of doing , and which ho
could not do It be so desired ,
Taking up HIM argument of Mr. Wool-
woith , Mr. Smyth then said the defendant
company was a corporation deriving lip
powers from the state of Nebraska. Aming
these powers U that of eminent domain.
Th& corporation Is , theretoe ) , tbo recipient
of aid from tbo people of the state of Ne
braska. With thu gift came tlio obligation
ti submit to reasonable regulation on the
part of the stato.
PEOPLE ; PAY THE TOLL.
The corporation not a monopoly In law ,
but U a monopoly In fact. It Is alleged thai
these yards cost over $2,000,000 ; that they are
now worth $0,000,000 ; that their construction
was a hazardous undertaking ; nnd that It
required years of labor to bring them to
what they now aro. IIo admitted all these
allegations , yet lie ald every man Kicking
to soil at South Omaha must soil through
the > ards and submit to their rogulntlonii.
All of these facts form a wall around ( ho
defendant company as high and as strong
as that which sun omuls the Celestial cm-
plro and protects -It as completely agalnut
the forces of competition as ( ho lawn of
England protect the monopoly of opium In
Ilengal , or the patent lawn protect the patent
of the Inventor.
Hut It l not I mo that at common law ,
all the things which Parliament had the
right to regulate enjoyed cither aid or grant
or prlvilego from tbo crown. The common
carrier , the baker , the hnckman and the
miller were at all timea subject to rcfjulu-
tlon by the leglnlaturo. The right to rvgu-
lute came from tlio principle that the public
welfare demanded the regulation. This prln-
PERFECTION I/S / AUTY MODER/XTIOfS / IN PRlCt
clplo ficems BO well established In tlio Jurla-
prudence of this country that there who
oppose. It have never boon able to win the
tribute of a court's dcclxlon. The supreme
court of the 1'nllcd States first lent Its ( auc
tion to the principle In the CBSI ? of Munn
ngnlust the Propln of Illinois , decided lit
1S74. Munn & Scott wore a firm , not a cor
poration , owning an clovntor eltuntod on
their own property at Chicago. The state
of Illinois paused a law regulating olnvatom
nnd flxlrg the charges ulllclt they might
mako. The property in that c.isc had mow
of the elements of privacy and loss of tlu
elements of monopoly thaa the property In
this c.u-o. Yet the supreme court of the
United SlatcH held that the property wim
nfloctrd with a public use. was \lrtunlly a
monopoly , nnd that the legislature had the
right to pass the law. This case hn born
cited and approved In more than nlnotoon
caws In the supreme oourts of eleven nlatrn.
