nay General Wallace B. Douglas of
~, . . flied today in the Supreme
. ' I climb United States a bill of
dint iii the case of the state of
-- to. complainant. against the
era Securities Company. Iiefon
Gulf: It is a long document of about
10.990 words covering ‘Iz pages of
ed Matter. The bill first points
out one direct infeIost in the state has
in the proposed consolidation. it still
owns more than 8 000 000 times of pub
llc land valued at more than $15 00
000. and traversed in part by the lines
of the Great N0I worn and Pacific raiI-
roads. if the mer'gci is effected these
roads will cease to build spurs into
these lands or compete for their busr
nous. The valuewof the lands will not
increase as It has under the spur of
competition and the state will use in
the taxable value of its property. ‘i‘he
lands will not be opened for years nuu
Development will be arrested. it Is
next set. up that the state spends more
than 3500.000 annually in the opera-
tion, and maintenance of Its education-
al. charitable and other public institu-
tionfl that this is mostly raised by di-
rect. taxation that the nuroun which
can be raised and the successful main-
tenance of these institutions for the
benefit of its citizens depend iurgcly

lturn depends largely upon freer com-
petition. It has been the settled policy
«of the state to encourage Iuilroad
building by grant of lands and in this
“way over 10.500.000 acres have been
granted, nearly all of which has been
granted to the Great Northern and
Northern Pacific and their subsidiar-
ies. The complainant alleges that the
rates on the immediate shipments of
wheat and other rucrchundisuI over the
lines of the two companies have been
lower than they will be under any or
rangement which contemplates unity
of control. The bill then recites the
charters and lucorporntious under
(which the Great Northern operates ov-
er ‘500 miles of road and cites the
clause in its charter providing flint Its
affairs are to be conducted by :1 board
of directors which-is to do all things
necessary and not inconsistent with
the constitution and laws of the United
States or the luwe of this territory or

special attention being paid to the
roads acquired and built within the
stats.
It has been the settled polity of the
state to prohibit consolidation of par
nilel or competing lines. and the laws
bearing on that subject are quoted in
full. It is set up that the Northern Sc-
curities Company is a railroad corpora-
tion within the meaning of the Minne-
sota laws, and that its design is to
evade “irreparable injurfy
It is not the owner of any proper ty,
stock or securities and is engaged to
no other business save that of manage-
ment and control of the Great North
em and Northern Pacific. Already so.

WRITTEN OPINIONS BY COUNSEL
The following communication from
Corporation louuscl John ll. Light
was road and occupied:
A communication to the Council
from Edwin Adams, relative to written
opinions by the corporution counsel,
wus referred to me. uud i beg leave to
report that written opinions are ll-
usuui and unneccssury. titular our
pructlce of requiring the corporation
counsels to attend the meetings of the
Council, all of his opinions on muttcrs
of importance are mode :1 port of the
records of the meeting of the Council
before which they are given. 'i‘o re-
Iuirc u written opinion on every ques-
tion would greatly inconvenience the
Council. and often require business be-
fore the Council to be postponed for
the purpose of giving the corporutron
counsel time to put his viewu or up
inions in writing. Under such It sys
tern established by thrI Council the
corporation counsel would be justified
in refusing to give an oral opinion on
city matter at ull. because. in so do-
ing he would be violating the rule. or
order. requiring written opinions. i
am pcrfcctly willing to put all my ops
inions as corporation counsel in writ-
ing. it the council desire me to do so.
Respectfully submitted.
