COURT SAYS STATES
CANNOT^SET RATES
St. Paal. — State courts have no
regulatory powers over freight rates,
the supreme court held la the salt of
the Minnesota railroad and warehouse
commission to compel railroads operat
ing In the state to abide by a
rate order.
The suit. In which the lower
round for the Northern Pacific and
other roads Involved, grew out of an
order by the Interstate commerce com
mission. establishing rates for certain
commodities higher than the state-
ordered rates.
The federal commission's order fol
lowed petition by Fargo, N. D„ and
Watertown. S. D , Interests asking that
the Minnesota rate be extended Into
North and South Dakota to remove
existing discrimination which prevail
ed because of higher rates in the
Dakotas than In Minnesota. The fed
eral commission, however, established
its rate for the entire territory.
The Minnesota commission held that
the higher rates developed a condition
of discrimination throughout Minne
sota and sought to compel the rail
roads to abide by the lower state
tariff.

WHAT IS ADVERTISING!
“Advertising is the education of
the public as to what yon are, where
you are, and what you have to offer
in the way of skill, talent or com
modity. The only man who should
not advertise is the man who has
nothing to offer the world in the
way of commodity or service.”
