WASHINGTON, April 14.-The interstate
commerce bill was laid before the senate
Today, and Mr.. CullOm detailed the pro-
visions of the measure at great length. Mr..
falmer said he would vote for the bill, not
because he thought II all that he would
approve, but because il looked in the right
direction. Special contracts governing
long periods of time were made every day
with shippers. giving them practically the
control of the market. There was neither
equity, equality, law nor justice in the
present system of railroad changes. Mr..
Palmer gave a number of instances of what
he termed unjust discrimination by railroad
companies, including some by and with the
Standard Oil company. Continuing, he
said he did not suppose the appointment Of
this commission would bring on the millen-
ium. For forty years these railroad COM
panies had been tightening their grasp on
the people. We are to-day confronted by
very great evils in connection with them.
We could not

States was water; and masters In Wall
street had realized vast fortunes i'm hard
cash out of this water. The sovereignty of
the great trunk lines presented a more dan
gernns imperium in imperiO than the
most concentrated government that the
world had before witnessed. Railroads
were great and most useful servants of civ
ilization, but they must not be permitted to
become absolute masters of the people. If
not supervised and brought under control
by appropriate legislation they would soon
have their power as firmly fixed as ever the
Hapsburgs, the Hohenzollerns. or the
Guelphs had fixed theirs. These modern
dynasties, the railroads. though born of
law, and the creatures of law had
become more powerful than their creator;
and the old maxim OF royalty: 1.-The king is
dead; long live the king" was never more
true of the haughiest divine right ruler than
of the modern railroad power. When the
railroad magnate died not a schedule was
changed, not a locomotive made puff the

Palmer believed that the peOples's motto
should be special privileges for none,
equal rights for all.

WASHINGTON, April 14.-The house
committee on territories to-day took up
Congressman Hilrs bill for the division of
Dakota upon the line of the 46th parallel,
and spent the entire hour of its meeting in
a discussion of the bill. No conclusion
was reached, but the indications point very
strongly TO a favorable report on the bill
The committee may hold another meeting
towards the close of the week and hope to
report the bill to the house by next week.
There is evidently a strong feeling in the
committee against any bill which looks to
the admission of Dakota as a state. but the
division measure will probably meet but
little opposition.
