SUGGESTIONS OF The CoMMIs SION

The secretary of the interstate COM
MERGE commission has issued pamphlet
containing the suggestions Of the com
mission in reply TO arguments on the
senate bill proposing TO amend the act
t. regulate commerce.. The bill In CUES
ton cOntemplates definite mode of pro-
ceeding IN hearings and Investigations bv
the commission. aud also Is intended TO
give to the reports and conclusions of
the commission the same status before
the courts as the master in chancerv has
in q court of equity. The tenor of tie
arguments against the bill was that con-
gress was inhibited by the constitution
from giving this effect to the commits
sion's report. The paper contains quite
q full discussion in the light or recent
decisions of the supreme court of the
respective functions of legislatures and
commissions on the one hand and the
courts on the other IN the determination
OF railway traffic charges.
The Commissioners say: The proper
regulation and adjustment of railway
rates Is as vital to the interests OF the az
ricultural, commercial and manufactur-
ing communities dependent on railway
transportation, as 10 the carriers them
selves To leave the determination
thereof solely 70 the unreguiatvd discre-
ton OF the latter IS pract caiiy 70 make
them the exclusive judges IL controves-
sizes between them and their patrons.
This suggestion Will perhaps he met by
tie assertion that as the carriers perform
tie service. they are entitled 70 INK tie
com peu.a.iou for the same. Bat the
conclusive reply J. that the law always

THE RUSSIAN FXMINE.

The statement is made by the Official
Messenger. a paper whose reports are
authorized by the government at st.
Petersburg, that the famine in Russia is
being successfully reduced. The reports
would indicate that the amelioration of
this fearful distress will soon be entirely
accomplished. The government, OF
course. takes credit for the improved
condition. Unfortunately, however, the
news received through other sources is
by no means so gratifying. Correspond
ents who have lately been III Russia and
who are not writing under official censor
ship still recount some very ugly facts.
As much as the American public would
like to have the assurance that Russia S
trouble is abating, it will not rejoice over
this report until it is confirmed by disin-
terested parties. What motive the car
could have in discouraging the help of
outsiders by disclaiming the need of help
is unknown. But up to date the reports
are too conflicting TO make it possible to
take this official announcement of the
Russian government as unmixed truth.

PRESIDENT HARRIsoNs TRIUMPH.

An English newspaper describes Dir.
Harrison as shallow demagogue
striving to further his personal ambi-
tions by an exhibition of silly buster in
the Boring sea affair. That is the British
aristocrat's idea of the American Charac-
ter, derived, no doubt, from their OBJ
servation of Yankee snobs and toadies.
But it is not pleasant to encounter such
estimates in papers published on this
continent under the protection of the
United States flag. 1t is humiliating, in
fact, that such things should be possible.
Fortunately, the journals that take
this view of Mr.. Harrison are few in
number and Insignificant in influence
There is an OVERLOOKING plenty of evil
dence to the effect that the great masses
of the people, without regard to Sec
tional or political differences, perceive
i'll Mr.. Harrison the motive of
patriot and the acts of a states
man. They fully understand that
the issue has deeper meaning than
attaches to any mere consideration of
the seals ana the privilege of taking
them. They are not to be deluded by
specious arguments as to boundaries,
any more than they are to be frightened
or disSuaded by cock-and-bull stories of
the British navy. Intelligent men have
long since realized that the question is
one of our national dignity, and their
grateful acknowledgements go out to
to the president, who stands for their
pride and love of country.
Public opinion viii make itself felt in
congress speedily enough when the time
comes. The feeling of the country is
that we have made too many concessions
to England already and that no more
shall be added to the list On that prop
osition the president will have the sup
port of an aroused and undivided nation.
This fact coming to the knowledge of
Premier Salisbury no doubt assisted him
in arriving at this later conclusion TO
accept President Harrison's terms look
lug to final settlement OF the disputed
question:

FINE TRIBUTE TO KANSAS

Not long ago Hon. Carter Harrison
made partial tour of this state, and on
his return homo wrote and had published
IN his paper, the Chicago Times, an ac-
count Of his trip from which the sub
Joined excerpt in regard to Kansas is
taken. What he says of the portions of
the state he traversed is complimentary
and not extravagant, but to have taken
IN this portion of the Happy Valley
country would have given the great
tourist an inspiration that has never yet
thrilled his descriptive genius. But here
is what Mr.. Harrison said:
"What mighty state Kansas is! 1t
suffers somewhat from drought and
grasshopperS, yet its yield is enormous.
How would like 10 be its king, with the
right to hang every man who fells a tree
without planting another III its place or
who drains pond. Trees and ponds
help to bring rainfall. If Kansas would
vigorously plant trees and dig horse and
cattle ponds 1t would double Its value to
the second generation.
Apple orchards are attached to mauv
farms. They look thrifty. Being a
prohibition state, its people run to hard
cider. There was rarely any evidence of
a flower garden about farm house.
Our women run to dress fads and glory
In style, but are sadly deficient in a real
love of the beautiful. They feel a con-
tempt for foreign peasant women, and
yet the Cossack's hut generally has
flowers about the door, and big Japan
csc will steal plat as big as table
from rocky road in which to grow a
chrysanthemum. Kansas ought to glow
with crimson blooms In Greece the fields
are brilliantly red with anemones and
peoples dyed with the blood of long-ago
heroes. The martyrs of bleeding Kansas
ought to have been the seed of countless
brilliant flowers.
Our road ran through extensive coal
borings. Coal is cheap. Itcomes out in
fine blocks, but cantains much sulphur
and Stacks very rapidly in the air. The
valley Of the kaw or Kansas has very
deep, rich soil. Indeed this is the case
quite across the state. except where coal
fields abound. There the soil appears
rather cold and stiff The Santa Fe
roadbed across the state is finely rock
ballasted, and our cars glided smoothly
along"

THE LAST OF FREE HOMES.

| There is another reason, an all-import-
ant reason that such a vast multitude are
congregated at this instant on the west
line of Oklahoma awaiting the opening
proclamation.
Government lands for homesteads are
almost gone. The settlement of the
Cheyenne and Arapahoe country will
remove another great body of such
lands. Ia five years the person who
wishes to acquire land will have to buy
it. The most simple creatures can for
see the great increment in the price OF
farm lands in this country that is in
evitable in the next ten years.
This was Senator Plumb's private the
DRY. The great increase in valuation of
farm lands, he held, is assured. Free
land will soon be thing OF the past.
and ownership will only come through
pecuniary equivalent. Homes will no
longer be given away, but will have to
be purchased.
Another singular movement in lux
Imposition with the settlement, is
the eastern immigration to the
west. The agricultural lands of New
England are worn out and become
barren. What are known as the hill
towns of Massachusetts, are deserted and
gone to rack and ruin, those of an urban
turn moving to western towns, those of
agreStic tastes, taking advantage of the
richness and cheapness of western soil.
In the manufacturing towns, the native
American element is being supplanted
by the Irish, German and Italian immi-
grants.
What becomes of the native Ameri-
can?
lie moves west, where his chan ces
for development and freedom are not
overcrowded, where land can be had for
the asking; where q young man of in
dustrv and energy is not kept back by
The arlstocracy of society or the stric-
lures of old institutions. He is new to
the country with all his brethren and
stands an equal show.
VI men We reflect on these points. there
is no license to wonder at the scramble
that ensues at every opening Of public
lands.

| running that of its rival. The real parties
| interested in the question of rates under
these circumstances, are rival and COM
! peting business enterprises or communl

situation and the necessity of their
services, have become the final arbitra
! tors between them. The common law

Gan essential idea of court Is that OF
inherent effectiveness in its decisions.
of tribunal having the power, by its
own officers and its own process, to
enforce obedience to Its orders. No
such power as this Is pro-
posed to be conferred on the commission
by the pending amendment. In fact 1t
may be said that the design OF the
amendment briefly stated is simply this:
That the commission, after due notice TO
all concerned, having given the fullest
opportunity 10 both sides for complete
presentation of their evidence and argU-
ments, the court in reviewing the COM
Missions action shall not itself hear any
new or additional testimony, but shall
contine the hearing to the record as
made before the commission, and 10 the
evidence heard by or offered before the
commission. Under the existing law the
court may appoint any person as a
special master TO review the case before
the commission and to take additional
testimony and report thereon. Under
the proposed measure. if the court de-
sires further light it may recommit to
the commission, just as in the case OF
an ordinary equity proceeding the court
may recommIt masters report. Even
assuming that the commission may be
prejudiced, the court has the fullest
power to examine ali the testimony and
reverse the commission should it deem
its conclusions unjust and inequitable.
Anything in their report indicating an
animus of this sort can easily be pointed
out in the exceptions. While the usual
practice is to give much weight to
masters report, yet there is no rule of
law, as there is in case of a jurys YER
dict, forbidding the court to set it aside
unless it be grossly and palpably wrong"

Hon. Bailey Waggener, of Atchison,
vehemently scouts the idea of the big
broad-shouldered Democratic party" al
lying itself with the alliance, which he
characterizes as "a political prostitute. p"
He thinks fusion is impossible, owing
to the strong sentiment against it by the
non-office seeking Democrats of the
state. Mr. Waggener. presumably,
knows the sentiment of at least one big.
broad-shouldered Democrat, and is au-
thorized TO speak for him, but he either
does not know or wilfully misrepresents
the bulk Of that party if he thinks they
are not III favor of fusion. They are.
and if there is no combination it will
not be the fault of the broad-shouldered
following.
