\ Knock-Out for the Interstate CONF
merce Commission at Cincinnati.
CINCINNATI, Aug. i2.-Thc decision Of
Judges jackson and Sage, of the United
States Court yesterday, throwing tho
Interstate Commerce Commission out
of court on their suit against the Balti-
more ~ Ohio Railroad Company, is a
complete knockout for the commits
sion. 1t is held that party and the
atrical rates are just and proper,
and subject alone to the provisions that
rates must be just and reasonable, and
that no unjust discrimination be made
against persons or traffic similarly cir
cumstanced. The Interstate Com
merce act leaves common carriers Just
where they were under the Common
carrier law, the judges say, free to
make such contracts as are for their
interests, and to classify and scale their
charges as to them seems best.

Mr.. Ed rise to state that mistake
has been made during the past year or
more. 1t has been freely asserted that the
=. of j. movement was a premature deyel-
Opment and that it must soon be assigned
to the records of the past. Last Saturday
evening found your humble servant quietly
seated in his own private apartment, specu-
lating on the various topics of the day.
when an alarm was sounded, and upon
investigation 1t was found that an invading
host had surrounded his fortress and even
taken possession of the inner walls. Dis
cretiOn dictated unconditional surrender"
Then came the happy greeting of my many
friends, members of Rising Sun Association
No. S25. The evening passed i'm social
converse, interspersed with music both
vocal and instrumental. when the hostess
announced that lunch would be served.
whereupOn we proceeded to empty the
many well-filled baskets which had accumU-
lated in our midst. The next thing in order
was the presentation of a beautiful plush
album, together with a dainty pair of
evening slippers of the u. s. type, which
were ably presented by Britain Mattison.
OF the response j shall have nothing to
say, but just here will proceed to make my
point. Through the social features of this
organization we, the common people, have
come to know each other better and to place
higher estimate upon the privileges and
opportunities which are ours as American
citizens. This fact, then, is enough to
enttle this movement to the hearty support
of every intelligent, liberty loving country
man. FRANKIE.
