Little's Case Against the milwaukee Re
@s manded for sTriul.

A.ittie's Case Against the Milwaukee Rc-
@ inanded for Trial.
DIES MONIES, Ia, Feb l4.-The rail-
road commission has received notice
from the United States district court at
Dubuque that the case, OF the counts
sioners against tho Chicago, Milwaukee
and st. Paul railroad had been remanded
to the state courts for slrial. The case
was begun in the stataCourts, but was
taken up on motion OF the defendants,
who claimed it was an interstate case.
The decision of the limited State court
as ~ decided victory for the railroad
commission. The case arose from
the complaint Of T.. j. Little, an oil
dealer in Lima, Q. He shipped oil to
Eagle Point, place about four miles
from Dubuque, the Chicago, Milwaukee
and st. Paul road doing the three-mile
switching for nothing until, through
the influence OF the tank line company,
the railroads began to discriminate
against the trade OF Mr.. Little, rajs-
ing the freight rate from Chicago to
dubuque over 100 per cent The Mil
waukee road began charging him 500
per car for switching to Eagle Point,
formerly done for nothing. The
commission was then appealed to
by Mr.. Little, and the Milwaukee was
ordered to switch his cars at reason
able rate. To avoid tho order tho
road put in station at Eagle Point,
charging the shipper local rates for the
three miles. The commission then Or
dered the haul to be classed as switch
and fixed the rate at So. 80 per car. The
q. y q
the commission and the case was taken
into the courts. The defendant ap-
pealed, but the commission insisted
that the interstate features OF tho case
ended at Dubuque and the switching
from there to any other point in Iowa
was matter for proper action by the
state commission. On this point the
United States court upheld the commits
sioners

PROHIBITION IN CLARKE.
THE LAST NIGHT OF TIE GREAT
CAMPAIGN.

eDeakers of Both Sides Holding Forth,
and the Whole County Out for the
Frav-The Polls to Open Early This
Morning Both Sides Confident of
Victory.
ATHENS. GA, July Athens is all ex-
element tonight. The prohibition ques-
ton. which has been agitsting the public
now for the past few months, IS TO De SUD
mitted to the voters OF Clarke county again.
and Tomorrow is the eventtul day. botn
sides are well organized and the fight has
been the bitterest in the history OF the
county. Every inch Of ground has been
contested during the campaign, and both
sides are confident OF victory by between
$50 and 200 majority. Tonight is the last
chance to get at the voters before the cleo
ton, and each faction is embracing every
opportunity to present their side befors the
people.
FIGHT OF THE ANTS.
The "antis" under the name Of "the Law
aud Order party" are strongly supported,
and many Of Athens leading citizens are
found in their ranks. Their idea is to bring
LIQUOR back to Athens under strict police
control and thus rid the city of the immor-
tai Blind Tiger" THE pros" are against
the liquor traffic, but willing TO have dis
pensary to be operated by the city where
liquor can be had only by the quart, pint
and gallon sold in original packages and
not TO be drunk on the premises. This
plank in the prohibition platform is des-
tined to break up the blind tiger
and has proven quite popular
with the people. The ants have come
over on this platform. Tonight public
speaking in different parts of town is filling
the air with shouts. and out in the open
fields of the country the great question Is
being discussed. The prohibitionists are
rallying at Evangelist Culpepper's tent In
Puryers district, and at Bradberry's, while
the i-prohibitionists are firing their big
guns from platform on Broad street.
THE WHOLE CITY OUT.
Every citizen of Athens is out and the
occasion recalls forcibly the famous
Speer and Gambler campaign in the old
Ninth district. Speaking will continue far
into the morning and in seven hours the
polls will be open. At the same hour the
union service win begin at the First
Methodist church and continue all day
until the polls close. A number OF leading
merchants will close their business houses
tomorrow and devote their entire time to
the cause they espouse. This fight will be
notable one in the history of this county.

will have a durable building erected, one
which will serve the county for 100 years, or
perhaps 200. The last grand jury recon-
mended that a jail be built, not

the latter part of July, and the fruit grow

grown anywhere. and If some plan could
be devised to prevent destruction Of the
