CHICAGO, July %. The roads in the
Central Freight association yesterday
notified the western lines that Septem-
Der / they would Withdraw their
through rates and divisions on west
bound freight to the northwest. This
action is the result of the inability of
the eastern and western freight men to
agree upon a basis OF divisions on
through business from the fact that
freight rates are higher in the west
than in the east.

The editor of the Advocate is ex-
hibiting considerable soreness over the
results of the election Among other
ways of showing this soreness is in ac-
cusing the editor of this paper of "dirty
campaigning" and of Sinful hypo-
cracy" and the like. He claims we
issued a "disreputablee election circular"
and this is the only specification he
makes. The editor of the Advocate
published the only circular we issued
to republican voters, thinking it was
doing us harm. If it was disreputable
he shouldn't have published it. 1t was
only an appeal for republican voters to
attend to their duties election day.
There was nothing the least disrepu-
table about the circular and the publ
cation of it by the Advocate only gave
the appeal more circulation among
voters many of whom supported the
republican ticket. TO thus childishly
accuse brother publisher of hy2oc-
racy, classifying, dirty campaigning
and the like simply because his
cherished pets were defeated, is ex-
hibiting some elements of character
that we had not before been aware that
the editor of the Advocate possessed.
