SHEEP Thera waa a varv llaht run nt
sheep here today as compared with yester
day and as the demand on the pert of
local packer continued active It wa not
long before practically everything on aale
waa out of first hands. Not only was the
market active, but the price paid wer
KulT'loc higher than yesterday, which carrle
the market to the highest point reached
so far thla season. Colorado wether sold
a hlBTh SS 15.00 and fnloeadn and stout h
Dakota lamb brought $6.10. There were
no prime ngniweight yearling or choice
ewe on 'safe, so that a fair teat nf the
maraet on that class of stuff was not made.
teeners are still very scarce and the
margei may be quoted fully steady.

ST. PAI'L, Feb. S. At 10:80 o'clock, be
fore the seeslon of th legislature, which
had been assembled In extra session to re
ceive the report of the tax commission and
the measure presented by that body tor
enactment, Governor Van Bant today read
hi message. Th prlBClpal portion wss de
voted to tha recommendation of tha com
mission, to which h mad om amend-
ents, covering points which war suggested
by th comlsslon but not approved by him.
After announcing th occasion for th extra
session to be the destr to secure a revision
of the aomewhat mixed tax lawa of tbe
atate. he urged that Immediate action oa
the matter be taken, looking- to the paassg
of law suggested hy th commission, with
sucn amendments ss may be deemed wise.
He argued against any discrimination ta
the laws, especially speaking against any
law which might make the poor bear an
unequal share ot the burden ot taxation.
H would not analyse th proposal of the
commission, but simply called attention td
It aa an Improvement over tbe existing
atatutea and worthy ot consideration. He.
however, particularly endord th sug
gestion ot a permanent tax commission, op
pose any reduction In the amount ot prop
erty exempted from taxation and auggesta
that the grain tax be made to agree with
those of neighboring states. -
The only other subject discussed la tha
so-called railroad merger,, ot which ha says:
Take l p the Merger.
At this time 1 deslra to Inform tha lea-taa
latura of the suit brourht bv the state nf
Minnesota against th Northern Securltle
company of New Jersey. Believing that
this corporation wa organised for th pur
pose oi evaaing ana violating in laws ot
Minnesota by consolidating the rrooertle
of the Great Northern and Northern Pa
cific companies, which companies run
narallal mnA MimnAlln. 11mm rf Hlla.tf
within the state. . I ren-neated Attnrner
General Douglas to bring suit In the nam
of the stat to prevent such consolidation.
He then quotea from the atatutea cover
ing tha case and continues:
That the Northern Securities comnanv
can, and, If not prevented by the state,
will, merge or consolidate the lines and
property of the two - railroad companlea
under one management I evidenced by
reference to section 8 and 4 of the article
of Incorporation of the Northern Securities
company, which authorise that company
to purcnase, hold, sen, assign, transfer,
mortgage, pledge or otherwise diauoae of
snares of the stock of any corporation or
corporations, association or associations, of
tne state of New Jtrsey or any stste, ter
ritory or coutnry, and. while owner of
such stock, to exercise all the rights, pow
ers and privileges of ownership. Including
the right to vote thereon. To aid In any
manner any corporation or association of
wlilcn any bonds or other securities or
evldencee or stock are held by the corpora
tion, ana to ao any act or tninga de
signed to protect, preserve, improve or
enhance the value of any such bonds or
other securities or evidences or indebted
ness or stock."
Power Ar Uallmlted.
Those power are broad a language
can make them, authorise the Northern
Securltle company, not only to vote the
stock of the Great Northern and Northern
Paclflo Railway companies, and thus ex
ercise all tne Dowers and Drivtleaes of
ownership and control, but specifically em
power tne corporation to oo any art or
thing designed to enhance the value of
the stock of the companies mentioned,
which, of course. Includes the right to
Increase freight rates directly or change
tne ciassincation or ireignt so . a to in
crease the rates.
Knowing that several other atate. In
addition to Minnesota,,, would . b affected
by thla consolidation, and that the de
clared public policy of such states throjgh
constitutional or legislative provisions was
similar to that of our state, I deemed It
wise to call a conference of the governors
and attorneys general of the states through
which tne l.nes ot railway pass, in order
that such method of procedure might be
adopted a would be uniform. This con
ference wa held at Helena, Mont. 1 here
were present the governor and attorney
general, not only of our state, but also of
Montana, South Dakota and Idaho, and the
attorney general of Washington. The
! governor of the last named stste died
ust prior to the conference, and owing lo
his fact his successor. Governor Mc
Bride, waa unable to attend the confer
ence. Governor McBride haa since, how
ever, In a published Interview, called tbe
attention or tne peoput ec nis state to tne
danger threatened by the consolidation
of these two companies. The conference
was harmonious throughout, and that th
official representatives - of the several
state were wholly in ympathy with th
action of thi atate and Ha Intention to
oppose thla consolidation, I shown .by the
resolution which waa adopted.
Ha rcltd tha argument before that
court on January 17. and added:
Coart af Laat Reaart.
What th final decision will bs It I diffi
cult to foretell, but It doe net aeem possi
ble that a New Jersey corporation, no
mstter what It capitalisation, will be per
mitted to violate the law of th sovereign
tat of Minnesota. If th final decision,
should be against th atate, the battle I
not then lost. There is one remedy that
never fills and which is more auorema
even than the supreme court. I quote
tha words of Judas Brewer In an address
made at the bicentennial of Tale college, in
which ne saia, in speaaing oi trusts ana
the Inability of the courts re- crush them,
"appeal must be taken to the great court
of public opinion, whose - decrees are
Irreslsiable. In that court every man 1
counsel and every man Is Judge."
It Is a plessure to commend Attorney
General Douglas for the able and efficient
manner in - which he haa endeavored to
vindicate our laws I learned from him
that the enactments upon our ststute
books ure ample snd thst no additional
legislation Is required at this time. But
It, during your session, any legislation
should b needed, will Immediately com
municate that fact to you. While you
have been called together olly for the
in view of the extraordinary expenses at
tending this suit and the great array of
legal talent In opposition, 1 would sug
gest that a sufficient sum of money be
placed at the disposal of th Isgal depart
ments to employ assistant counsel to prop
erly continue the litigation and meet the
expense necessarily connected therewith,
Tha governor said further on th msrgeri
If the supreme court doe not take Juris
diction It Is the Intentiun of the attorney
general to at once bring suit in the state
court and every effort will be made to
have the case reported In the court of last
resort, where it must Anally be disposed
of. Neither this company or any other
company, combination, consolidation or
trust shall violate the laws of our state
If It can be prevented. 1
