Patrons of the Kansas City stock
yards are to have rebate checks during
the time the Kansas stock yards law is
hung up in the court that will entitle
them to a refund of overcharges should
the final decision be in favor of the
validity of the law. What If rebate
checks had been ordered for shippers
over Nebraska railroads at the time the
maximum freight rate cases were first
tried? How much would they have
amounted to in the four years that the
maximum rate law has been hung up?

THE DESPERATE MAN.
If WE KNEW.

Bessie w. Smith in Chicago Tribune.
Could we but draw the curtains
That surround each others lives,
See the naked heart and spirit
Know what spur the action gives,
Often we should find 1t better.
Purer than we judge we should,
We should love each other better
If We only understood.
Could we judge all deeds by motives.
See the good and bad within,
Often we should love the sinner,
All the while we loathe the sin:
Could we know the powers working
To overthrow integrity,
We should judge each others errors
With more patient charity.
If we knew the cares and trials,
Knew the efforts all in vain,
And the bitter disappointment,
Understood the loss and gain
Would the grim, external roughness
Seem, l wonder, just the same?
Should we help where now we hinderf
Should we pity where we blame?
All, we judge each other harshly,
Knowing not life's hidden force:
Knowing not the fount of action
Is less turbid at its source.
Seeing not amid the evil
All the golden grains of good
O, we'd love each other better
If we only understood.

General Miles thinks that the regular army
OF the United States ought to be increased
by at least 5000 or 10 900 enlisted men and
officers to match AS the need of the mill
tary forces of the federal government grows
less and less every year, as far as the In
dams are concerned, 1t is safe to predict that
tho generals views will not have much
weight in congress until the balance between
the revenues of the nation and its expenses
shall have changed very decidedly in the
right direction

Another step in the controversy over
the limitations on the power of govern
ment authorities to regulate the charges
of corporations doing quasi-public
business has been taken in Des Moines,
where the local electric lighting com
pany has appealed to the courts to pro-
tect it from regulation of its tariff by
ordinance enacted by the city council.
The principle involved is practically the
same as that of the maximum freight
rate cases, the stock yards cases and
others in which the point has been
raised that all such regulation is the
appropriation of private property with
out compensation. In each there are of
course differences arising from different
statutory provisions, so that the decision
one way or the other in one case would
not necessarily determine all the others
AS a great many municipal charters in
this country empower the council to
regulate the charges of water, gas and
electric lighting companies, the outcome
of the contest in Des Moines has more
than mere local Importance.

One of the items in the treasurer's re-

bank failure. 1t appears that public

that the losses sustained by treasurers
who happen to deposit trust funds in

A SPRING DAY.

Yesterday was an ideal Spring
day. The people seem to have
dressed light and looked more spring
like than usual, after the cold
weather we have had.
Mr.. Whitley brought out the two
summer cars and they looked SC
spring or summer like, that each
one of them were soon
filed with those who wanted an
outing
Then there were many private
buggies, being driven in all direc-
tions, ladies and gentlemen on
wheels were looking up the smooth
est parts of the city, for a spin,
The reporter caught the conta-
gion to take an airing, and he made
for the Park-Spring Lake OF
course. The open car he was on,
was well filled with ladies and their
escorts, and all was going well--the
mules were in a brisk trot down
grade, when all at once the car
jumped the track and after iolting
few yards turned crosswise the
track and stopped This was
signal for an explosion and every
one laughed, We put it that they
were tickled because they did not
get hurt, The car was soon right.
ed and put back, and we all resum-
ed our seats, and made the run to
the Park without any other accI-
dent or incident,
We found many visitors out there
who were enjoying a swing, boat
ride or a chat with some friend
The lake has filed up with water,
until now 1t can be classed as a very
respectable body OF water,
We noticed a couple Of boys in
swimming, and they seemed to enjoy
it finely, although the water was
cold to the touch Of the finger
Mr., Whitley still intimates that
he will fix up a natatorium at the
Park for the summer, and we trust
he may do so, The Park is what
our people need, and the nattering
success and patronage accorded the
street car hne last summer will be
repeated this summer, If an effort Is
made to keep up the Park.
