the Cars Peace Note.
Bristol, Aug. 30.--The trades union
congress which is now in session here
has unanimously passed a resolution
expressing satisfaction at the cars
peace note and calling on the British
government to give effect thereto, ''as
militaryism is the great foe of liberty
and is a crushing burden to the toiling
millions"
In other quarters it is alleged that
the ears announcement was directly
inspired by Queen Victoria, whose
greatest hope is that her reign may not
again be disturbed by war. The queen
confessedly has long sought TO restrain
Emperor William and it is not unlikely
that she used her great influence with
the czarina to secure the cars sup

The action Of the supreme court OF
the United States in the maximum
freight rate case is not, after all,
eatirelysatisfactory to the railroads.
The court decided that a railroad
corporation has bonded it's property
for an amount that exceeds it's fair
value, or if it's capitalization is
largely fictitious, it nay not impose
upon the public the burden OF such
increased rates as may be required
for the purpose OF realizing profits
upon such excessive valuation of
fictitious capitalization; and the
apparent value of the property and
franchises used by the corporation,
as repi esented by it's stocks, bonds
and obligation, is not alone to be
considered in determining the rates
that may be reasonably charged.

Brainerd Tribune: The St. Cloud
Times, in an article concerning the
prospects of the fusionists for carry
ing this legislative district, which we
reproduce elsewhere, says the "allied
forces in that district are hopeful OF
success this fall, as they have small
majority of $50 to overcome" If
the Times will look up the figures it
will find that in 1886 there was a
difference of 648 votes in these two
counties between the highest num-
Der received by republican Iegisla-
tive candidate and the highest can.
didate on the fusion legislative legis-
lative ticket, and the lowest republi-
can legislative candidate received
6O8 more votes than the lowest
fusion legislative candidate. 1t Is
we'll to remember, however, that Lind
received Is more votes than Clough
in these same counties. Mr.. McKin-
ley's plurality over Bryan was 861,
and Morris over Towne but 113. hi.
The figures of the Tribune are ac-
curate, but do not convey a right
impression. Mr.. Head received the
smallest vote OF any republican can
dldate-3210, while Mr.. Koop, who
among the fusion candidates got the
highest vote, received 3109, in the
two counties, difference of but 1O1
votes. Between Koop and Jones in
the two counties, the difference was
223 votes; between Koop and Harris
horn, 234 votes. There was no at
tempt at vigorous campaign In
1896 on the legislative ticket, as the
district WAS known to be normally
republican. This year the republi-
can counties of Mile Laos and Todd
are in another district, which i'm
proves fusion chances considerably.

The Bell Telephone company had
an income of $4,169,974 in 1897,
and paid dividends amounting to
$3,682,984. This is the parent
organization of the many compan-
les belonging to the Bell system, and
which it is said are all paying enor.
nous dividends. 1t is no wonder
that numerous cooperative and
local telephone exchanges are being
started everywhere. These indie
pendent companies have succeeded
in bringing about great reductions
in rates. Before 1896, the Bell com.
pany changed the people of Madi-
son, Wis.,, $50 a year for business
phones and $40 forresidences within a
radius of a mile of the business center.
Another company came in, making
rates $24 and SIS for the same ser
vice. Then the Bell concern reduced
rates to $12 and 50. This is but an
instance. Now, there are 165 towns
in Michigan which have Independent
exchanges. In Indiana there are 1871
independent exchanges. In every
case rates have been put at such fair
rates that the use OF the telephone,
as might have been expected, has
been greatly increased. The Bell
company has sued several Of the
independent companies, which work
under the Shenn patents, but has
been defeated. Many towns in oWga
and southern Minnesot have now
local exchanges. Il IS only a ques-
tion$o time when towns IN this part
Of the state will follow their example
unless Che NorthWeste tern Telephone
Exchange Co. furnishes better .ac-I
