dissenting. I do not understand that the court modifies the principles announced in Walling v. Michigan, 116 U. S. 446, or in Connolly v. Union Sewer Pipe Co., 184 U. S. 540. In my judgment, those cases are applicable to and control this case, and require a reversal of the judgment below upon the ground that the statute of Texas is in violatidn of the Constitution of the United States. I therefore dissent from, the opinion and judgment of the court. Mr. Justice Brewer and Mr. Justice Brown concur in this dissent.
