St Paul Minn. Aug. 1. Judge
Lochron today in tho United States
circuit court handed down his decis-
ion in tho caso of tho state of Minne-
sota against tho Northern Securities
company tho Great Northern Rail-
way company of tho Northern Pacific
Railway company In which ho sus-
tained tho contentions of tho defend-
ants and dismissed the bill of com-
plaint of tho state. Ho finds that tho
Northern Securities company has not
violated the stato laws forbidding tho
consolidation of parallel and compet-
ing linos of railway through Its own-
ership of stock of tho Great Northern
and Northern Pacific railways. Ho re-
fuses the injunctions askod by tho
sttto of Minnesota to restrain tho se-
curities company from voting sthe
stock of tho two railroad companies
or either of them. This decision af-
fects tho results of the federal gov-
ernment's victory in tho circuit court
In no way whatever. Tho federal
suit Involved tho same defendants and
tho 8arao general stato of facts but
was based on a totally different con-
tention of law affecting tho Sherman
nntl-trust statute.

University President
Roasted to a Tarn
Washington D. c Aug. 1. Anoth-
or criticism of the president ia based
on an action of hlB that comoa as a
Bort of a sequel to something that oc-
curred during his late political Junket
through tho witet and which was com-
mented on at tho tlmo in this corre-
spondence. It will bo remembered
by tho readers of this correspondence
that I had something to Bay about
tho failure tho Inoxpllcablo neglect
of tho president of the university of
California Mr. Benjamin Ido "Wheoler.
to mention tho names of Mrs. Phoebo
Hearst and Mr. William Randolph
Hearst In tho list of donors and pa-
trons of tho university when thoy
had donated more than all othors
combined on tho occasion of tho v
of tho president of tho United States
to that Institution. "Wonderment was
then expressed that such a thing
should have occurred unless Presi-
dent Wheeler had been specifically
asked by some ono to omit tho names
of these two generous donors to tho
upbuilding of tho university of Cali-
fornia. Although ho haa been roasted
to a brown turn by tho presa of Cali-
fornia and aaked to explain Mr.
Wheeler has novor uttered a word by
way of explanation for his uncalled
for and unheard of omission' Tho
explanation has now come by infer-
ence and tho conclusion la Irresistible.
A short tlmo ago Mr. Benjamin Ido
Wheeler camo through Washington
and waa entertained at tho white
houso by President Roosevelt and
shown every possible courtesy. Thus
it is aa gross Uo tho senso as the sun
at noonday that thia ia a game of you
tlcklo mo and I will tickle you.- Out
In California Wheeler at tho request
or suggestion of a soul so small thp
three hundred of them could danco
the highland fling on tho point pf a
cambric needle performs tho act o
an In grave and insults tho spirit of
his state. In Washington ho gets his
pay by being allowod to fawn at t
1 feot of alleged greatness and stlc
his knees under prsJt5r.tlal mahog-
any. Ho was entitled to anything tho
president could givo him. Ho saved
him from listening to tho applause
that would havo followed tho reading
jof tho namo of Hopat in California
for it is a name thai Roosevelt b
1 fears and dislikes. And no -wonder
Mr. Hearst has told tho truth so often
concerning Roosevelt and his party
'that ovory tlmo tho president sooe a
j Now York American ho ahlos at It
(like his orstwhilo moon-oyod broncho
(at a black stump.
Tin question now being askod here
is "whit has become of the 'Iowa
I(ea?' " It seoma to havo "gono glim-
mering llko a schoolboy's dream the
wondor of an hour." After all the
beating of torn toms and sounding of
how gaga anont this "Iowa Idwi" tho
platform adopted by tho Iowa Re-
publicans was a straddle and a fako
on tho tariff reform and revision
question and all the analysoa of it
on earth could make nothln else out
o it I said somo tlmo ago that it
was a gold brick. Tho Iowa Republi-
cans in convention assembled have
proved my assertion correct. Gov.
Cummins says he will contlnuo to
make tbo same kind of tarlft revision
speeches throughout tho campaign
that he has been making hnrtororo.
If ho does bo will bo Bpoaklng throuR

says he wrote tho tariff plank In tho
platform himself. If he did he was
hypnotized by Stnator Allison while
ho waa doing It. for it talks ono way
