The facts of this ease are few and may be tersly stated in the following language:

“The State, upon information of the Attorney-General, instituted her proceeding quo warranto in this court several years since against various incorporated companies, foreign and domestic, charging sundry violations of her anti-trust statutes and seeking the forfeiture of the corporate franchises of the alleged defenders (i. e., the forfeiture of corporate existence as to domestic companies and of the right to continue in business in the State as to the strangers)".

“After much travail by litigants, counsel, commissioner and court, this proceeding culminated, so far as concerns the Bradley Lumber Company, in the assessment here of a fine of $50,000, to be levied on its possessions, as well as of a judgment of ouster from its corporate franchise. [Vide, 260 Mo. l. c. 317.] The fine thus levied was not paid. An execution was issued out of this court and returned unsatisfied. Thereupon the plaintiff applied to this court by proper proceeding for a citation against the defendant Bradley Lumber Com*376pany to discover assets; upon a hearing of this matter before a commissioner, information was obtained which led the State to believe that the garnishees herein are indebted to said defendant. Thereupon an alias execution was issued upon request of plaintiff, and the marshal of ' this c'ourt was directed to garnish the garnishees herein upon said execution. This was accordingly done.

“The garnishees appear before this court and move the court to dismiss the garnishment proceedings, for the reasons:

“First: That this court is without jurisdiction to hear, try or determine an original proceeding in garnishment.

“Second: Because garnishees are entitled to a trial by jury upon issues of fact which may arise in the cause.

“Third: Because there is no valid judgment against the defendant,' Bradley Lumber Company.”

Garnishment co°urt.Supr6me Counsel for the garnishees first insist that this court has no original jurisdiction of a garnishment proceeding; and assign as their reason therefor, that its jurisdiction is appellate only, except as otherwise provided by the Constitution, and cite in support thereof sections 2 and 3 of article 6 of the Constitution.

“Sec. 2. The Supreme Court, except in cases otherwise directed by- this Constitution, shall have appellate jurisdiction only, which shall be coextensive with the State, under the restrictions and limitations in this Constitution provided.

“Sec. 3. The Supreme Court shall have a general superintending control over all inferior courts. It shall have power to issue writs of habeas corpus, mandamus, quo warranto, certiorari and other original remedial writs, and to hear and determine the same. ’ ’

In the sense in which counsel for the garnishees speak, they are correct in saying that the jurisdiction of "this court is appellate only, except-to issue the original writs named in said third clause of the Constitution; and that a garnishment proceeding is statutory and is not one of the original writs mentioned in said constitutional *377provision is equally true, as shown by all of the authorities.

It is also true in the sense in'which counsel contend that the Legislature has no power to confer original jurisdiction upon this court to try garnishment proceedings; but that is not the legal proposition the Attorney-General here presents for determination.

The Attorney-General’s position is that this court, by express authority of said section three of the Constitution, has jurisdiction to issue writs of quo warranto, and to try and enforce the judgments it may render in any such case; and that such grant of jurisdiction to this court carries with it the necessary and incidental powers necessary to enforce its judgments and decrees. That is the well-settled law of this State and others, as decided in the following cases: State ex rel. v. Assurance Companies, 251 Mo. l. c. 296-302; Shull v. Boyd, 251 Mo. l. c. 476-477; In re Sanford, 236 Mo. l. c. 692; Phelps v. Mutual Reserve Fund L. Assn., 112 Fed. 453; Riggs v. Johnson County, 6 Wall. (U. S.) l. c. 187, 197; Goodrich v. Staples, 2 Cush. (Mass.) 258; McGinty v. Richmond, 27 La. Ann. 606; 11 Cyc. 677, 678.

It cannot be logically contended in the absence of a statute to the contrary, that the application of a common law, equitable or statutory remedy to enforce the judgment or decree of a court having jurisdiction to render the same is an assumption of additional powers. The power of a court to render a judgment is quite different from adopting an existing remedy to enforce the same after its rendition. Even a statute affecting a remedy may be perfectly valid, while if it- affects the rights of the parties in the matter which the remedy is designed to accomplish, it might be void for constitutional reasons. Such statutes are numerous, and the books are full of cases drawing this distinction.

The case of State ex inf. Attorney-General v. Arkansas Lumber Co., supra, out of which this proceeding grew, was an original proceeding brought in this court by quo warranto, to oust the defendants from doing business in this State. This court unquestionably had *378jurisdiction to hear and determine that case, and as it has repeatedly held, had the power to pronounce the judgment or decree therein rendered; therefore, if it be true, as previously stated, that a grant of jurisdiction to a court carries with it the necessary and incidental powers essential to effectuate it, then the form of the remedy resorted to in order to enforce that judgment in so far as the judgment debtor is concerned, is wholly immaterial, and the mere fact that an auxiliary proceeding in the nature of a garnishment proceeding, as this is, is resorted to in this court in order to reach money or property of the judgment debtor in the hands of these third persons, no more concerns them than if a similar proceeding had been brought against them in the circuit court to enforce said judgment of this court, just so long as the proceedings do not deprive them of any of their individual property, and is confined to that of the judgment debtor found in their possession.

But counsel for the garnishees insist that the form in which this proceeding is to be tried is of great importance to them in that if tried in the circuit court they would be entitled to a jury, but not so if tried in this court.

Both of those propositions might well be conceded, but it would not from that fact necessarily follow that this court has no jurisdiction to hear this ancillary proceeding; but upon the contrary the law seems to be well settled that whenever a court has jurisdiction of the main subject-matter of a cause, that fact gives it jurisdiction over all of the incidents thereof. [See eases before cited.]

Practically the same contention was made by counsel for defendants in the case of State ex inf. v. Standard Oil Co., 218 Mo. 1.

There it was contended that because the anti-trust laws of the State made the formation of pools, trusts, combinations, etc., of commodities a crime, the defendants were' entitled to a trial by a jury.

Under those facts this court held that while it had no original jurisdiction over criminal prosecutions, a *379proceeding upon information in the nature of a quo warranto to forfeit their franchises for a violation of the law, and to impose penalties for that viulation, was a civil suit, and that this court had jurisdiction to hear the cause, and that it was immaterial whether or not the defendants were also guilty of a crime, which would subject them to criminal prosecution upon an indictment before the circuit court and a jury.'

That case followed previous rulings of this court, ánd it has been followed in subsequent cases; consequently it must be considered as settled that because there are involved in this class of eases certain issues bf fact, which if tried in the circuit court would entitle a defendant to a trial by a jury, is no reason of authority for holding they are entitled to a jury trial in this court,-involving similar facts.

Both courts are created by the Constitution, and to the extent mentioned they have co-ordinate jurisdiction over the matters -mentioned, and if the case is tried in the circuit court they might be entitled to a trial by a jury, but not so, if the trial takes place in this court.

Moreover, it seems illogical to me to say that a court has jurisdiction over the main subject-matter of an action, but has no jurisdiction over the matters, that are merely incidental thereto. This proceeding being in the nature of an equitable garnishment, seeking to follow and subject the assets of the Bradley Lumber Company, a trust fund for the payment of its debts, alleged to have been transferred by it to the garnishees in order to evade the payment of the judgment of this court, pronounced against it in the case of State ex inf. Attorney-General v. Arkansas Lumber Co., supra, falls squarely within the ruling of the Supreme Court of the United States in the cases of White v. Ewing, 159 U. S. 36; Morgan’s Co. v. Texas Central Ry. Co., 137 U. S. 171, and Rouse v. Hornsby, 161 U. S. 588.

In the first case cited the facts thereof were, substantially as follows:

“The Cardiff Coal & Iron Company, a corporation of Tennessee, becoming insolvent, a creditors’ bill was *380filed in the circuit court for the Eastern District of Tennessee by George F. Bosworth, a citizen of Massachusetts, and a judgment creditor of the company, setting forth the insolvency of the company, the wasting of its assets, etc., and praying for a sale of the property, the collection of its choses in action, the appointment nf a receiver, and for an injunction. In pursuance of the prayer of this bill the appellee, Ewing, was appointed receiver of the company, ordered to take possession of its assets, and to manage and protect the same for the benefit of the creditors under orders from the court. All creditors was ordered to file their claims.”

After the receiver qualified, said court ordered him to bring suit in the same court against certain debtors of the company, one of whom was White, the plaintiff in error, he having been in debt to the company for a sum less than $2000. The^ point was made that the United States court had no jurisdiction of the subject-matter of the suit, for the reason that it was for a sum less than $2000. In overruling the objection to the jurisdiction of the court, the Supreme Court of the United States said:

“The circuit court obtained jurisdiction over the Cardiff Coal & Iron Company by the filing of the original creditor’s bill by Bosworth, a citizen of Massachusetts, and by the appointment of a receiver, and any suit by or against such receiver, in the course of the winding up of such corporation, whether for the collection of its assets or for the defense of its property rights, must be regarded as ancillary to the main suit, and as cognizable in the circuit court, regardless either of the citizenship of the parties, or of the amount in controversy: [Freeman v. Howe, 24 How. (U. S.) 450, 460 ; Krippendorf v. Hyde, 110 U. S. 276; Dewey v. West Fairmont Gas Coal Co., 123 U. S. 329; In re Tyler, 149 U. S. 164, 181; Root v. Woolworth, 150 U. S. 401, 413; Rouse v. Letcher, 156 U. S. 47, 49.]”

The other two cases announce the same rule.

• As previously stated, the ease at bar is an ancillary proceeding to the original cause of the State ex inf. v. *381Arkansas Lumber Co. et al., supra, and this court having had jurisdiction of the parties to and of the subject-matter of that suit, one of which was the Bradley Lumber Company, it necessarily follows that this court has jurisdiction of the subject-matter of the parties to this ancillary proceeding, although the garnishees were not parties to the original suit; neither was White a party to the original suit of Bosworth v. Cardiff Coal & Iron Co., in which Ewing was appointed receiver.

There are other propositions discussed by counsel, but the views stated render it unnecessary for us to discuss them.

For the reason stated, the motion to dismiss the garnishment proceeding is overruled.
