lie took the most ad tanoed gntiind In fat or
el letting the railroads and coal companion
and ether corporations doing pretty much as
they please, liocause they are el r ae
much advantage te the public at

te form peel and combinations, and
te regulate freight charges te suit theinseltes
te charge mero for short distances thau for
long distances If It was te their adxautage te
de se aud It shippers don't llke It, they can
build a railroad of their own. " An Individ
ual has the aame right te build a railroad
through and etcr his neighbor's land" that
a railroad has, "provided he prya damages."
Mr. Heist thought It net only uuwlse but Im
pertlnent en the art el our governor and at at at
torneygeuoral te bring suit against the railroad
and coal roreratlon, en the pretense of up
holding the oenslllutlon. "Many people talk

was a Republican he used te say. If any man
says constitution, mark him, but as seen as he

Heist, hut constitutions, llke some men's con cen

lu a minute after Mr. Heist had ended the
reading of his essay Ihere were a deen mem
bers ready te reply te him.
Henry (I. Hush was astonished te hear
such views advanced by a moniber of the
society, and thought It would be suicidal for
farmers te Inderse them. 'J he discrimination
made by the railroads against the agricultural
lu of Kastern Pennsylvania have been meat
disastrous. Agricultural products have lieen
and are cirrled lrem Chicago te New Yerk
for less money than the same products are
carried from l.ttiotster te Philadelphia,
htery time the railroads reduce the rrelicht
charges en estein wheal It means a reduc
tion lu theprlcoel wheat grown In I'ennsyt
vaula Mr. Hush vigorously cembatted all
the leading positions taken by Mr. Heist, he
Insisted en the onrervoineiil or the censlltu
tlenal prevision against discrimination In
freights, denied Mr. Heist's statoment that
Individuals could take private property the
satueas corporations can lake It, and Intimated
that the railroad monopolists were in league

I"l I I IIIIKII QUESTIONS.
W. 11. Ilieslus asked and was given
another mouth in which te answer the ques ques
lien " Is there auy foaslble plan te warm
drinking water ler cattle in winter 1"
Henry U. Hush answered the questien " Is
Bteck raising profitable in I.sncaiter county"
Mr. Hush said the questien might properly
lie broadened se as te read " Dees Farming
Pay'" The subject should be considered
relatively. Time was when a failure
et the wheat crop of Pennsylvania was
almost Hiilllclent te cause a famine;
new all the wheat east of the Allegheny
might be blighted without materlally di
minishing the supply. '1 hese changes hav e
been brought about by the railroad facilities
ter the transportation of grain from the new
grain Holds of the West. Mr. Hush made an
explanation of the great injustlce dene te
Kasiern farmers by the discrimination In
freights in lav or of Western rivals. While
he acknowledged the great geed that
the railroads had accomplished by liirnlsblng
impreed ami rapid transportation from the
West te the eea-beard, he insisted that as
common carrlera they should treat both
sec tlens fairly. In answer te the question
el stock raising in Lancaster county
he thought it might lie mere prelltabla
man nay raising, llav In the mew
te-day is w erth about ffl. On the Held, there there thero
fero, li waa net worth mere than (I. As the
average amount or hay grown per aero is
about a ten, he thought It would be a peer
animal that would uet impreve in weight
mero than f I worth In the ceurse or the
season. In conclusion Mr. Hush said : "In
aowrdance with the modifying ci renin renin renin
slaucoeabave enumerated, I conclude that
en lurins of considerable slr.e at considerable
distance from consuming centres whether
east or wester the Allegheny, the product el
the soil may be dovetod te the rearing et live
stock with a chance el prellt at leatt equal
te tun cultivation or the cereals. " HeHatulie
thought the time net far distant when I.an
caster larmera w 111 fall back te raising mero
cattle than they raise new.
Jeseph T. Wltmer aimwored the questien,
" What Ih the cause of streaks In buttet 7"
by sajlng that oarelossness was the only
cause. With care and oleatillness there need
he no streaky butter.

the supreme court en Monday afllrmcd the
oenitltutionallty ofthe penal statute or May

from thequatter sss'lens et Dauphin county,
where W. I. I'etvell was convicted of viola
tlen of the prevision of the aet. Judge (lor (ler (lor
den Hied an omphatle dlssniil.
Helding that the right el the Judiciary te
arrest the oxecutlnn of a statute should nover
be exercised exi opt In very clear cases, Judge
Htorrett Mays
This act la entitled "an act for the protection
or the public health and te provent adultera
tion In dairy products and fraud In the sale
thereef." It cannot be doubted that the gen
eral assembly bes full Kiwor te leglalate for
these purposes, and thatthey ceme within the
general jsillce (viwers of the state. These
powers extend te the "protection of the II ve.
llmbhoalth,)infertandquletofallDertons"
The manufacture, sale and keeping of an article
may all alike be prohibited by the legislature
If lu Its Judgment the protection or the public
rrem Injury and rraud roqulreslL Te deny
the authority of the legislature te de e Is te
attack all that is vital In the police power. The
fact that the prohibited substances may be net
Injurious Is Irrelevant. The sale of a mixture
et pure milk and pure water has been pro
hibited. Te held that a prohibited article
must be unwholesome te make the act con.
atltutlenal would be te overthrew every law
the wisdom of which could net bear the test
of scrutiny. The 'elslature was doubtless
natlstled that the mauulaoture and sale of the
prohibited nrtU'lewas prejudlcal te the pub
lic geed te such a dogree that a remedy was
needed, and we have no right te saythata
penal statute less severe and sweeping in its
terms would have allnrded an eflectlve rem
edy. This is a legislative and net a Judicial
question. II It is thought the legislature
erred in the solution or that question the
prtqier course Is te appeal te It te correct the
error, It any there were.
in his dissenting opinion Judge (orden
declared that the purpoje of the act was te
protect the dairyman at the expense of the
consumer. Instead of being hailed as a
benolacter, the chemlst who discovered that
butter can be made from ether oils than that
of milk was branded as a benefactor. The
oleemargarlno act was clans legislation
-that political curse which the farmers
of the enstltutleu endeavored te pre
vent, but which the general assembly
soems dlsjiesed le perpetuate. In
giving ferce te the act the court established
the dtx-trlnn that the legislature may prevent
the citizen from using any given article of
loot! a doctrlne that must necessarily be
founded en the ruins of the bill of rights.
" bat a commentary en nineteenth century
