FEED-IN-TRANsIT RATES WILL BE
STOPPED APRIL 1.
Railroads Say some Shippers lave
Abused 1t and Made 1t Unjust
Nebraska Not Included
Visitors Mt the Yards,

The announcement by the railroads that
there will be no feed in transit rates for
Kansas feeders this year and that all such
privileges will be cut on after April l, is
vigorously protested against by cattlemen
both in Texas and Kansas. All the railroads
members of the traEs-Missouri and South
western bureau have Joined in the notice.
The explanation of the railroads as to why
they have taken this stand after allowing
the privilege for so many years is that it
was being greatly abused. The feed in tran
sit rate allowed the Southern shipper to
ship up to Kansas and fatten his cattIs
there. and then reship to market on the
through rate. But it is said that the South
ern shipper or Kansas buyer would often
sell his cattle in Kansas and not turn over
his through contract to the purchaser OF
the cattle. but sell it to an outside party
and often realize a good sum for 1t, as the
difference between the feed in transit rate
and the local rate was $40 per car. The
railroads. want to break up this practice.
and that is why they have decided to dis
continue the feed in transit rate. II this is
true, then the notice should extend to Ne
nraska: which. it is said. it does not do.
should have a feed in transit rate and
Kansas feeders none. And the cattlemen at
the yards should see that no such gross
discrimination is put. into force.

VIII probably spend two days here. Major
Calvin Hood. Senator John Hessin and 9TH
er candidates for the Republican nominal
ton for governor will also be present. and
the meeting will take on a political aspect.
The cattle interests are becoming so much
identified with Central and Western Kan
sas that 1t has made 1t an important fac
tor In the politics of this part of the state.
The cattle feeders are making money this
season. and they will unite in demanding
better and more favorable facilities in rates
and shipping. Among the matters in which
they are interested is anti-oleo legislation,
as 1t will increase the price of cows. At
the creamery meeting the committee on
legislation outlined a plan by which it is
proposed to pledge every legislative candi-
date of all parties. and make a personal
fight on behalf of the cattle interests on
every candidate who Is not pledged Even
state candidates are to be listed in the same
manner.

A San Francisco dispatch says that
the Pacific Mail Steamship company is
seeking to buy the Belgic, Gaelic, Cop
tic and Doric, steamers operated be-
tween San Francisco, Honolulu, Yoko-
hama and Hong Kong by the Occident-
al and Oriental Steamship company. 1t
1t stated that the Pacific Mail has no
steam ships left of its own, as all its
vessels have been taken for troop ships
and that the Occidental cannot operate
between San Francisco and Honolulu
as its steamers are under British regis
ter. and no foreign ships are permitted
to carry freight or passengers between
the United States and Hawaii. This.
1t is claimed, greatly limits the ac-
commodations to Honolulu, as only
two ships of the Oceanic company are
entitled to operate.

Three hundred towns and cities of
the United States, moved by more than
three hundred tragedies Of Juvenile
crime, have recently ordained that chill
dren shall come home at night at the
signal Of a so-called curfew bell, at s
o'clock In winter; at In summer. The
ancient curfew applied to old and
young alike: the modern curfew has
only the poetic remembrance Of being
an even bell. Government Is the Co.
operative act of parents, who act to-
gether In cities and villages. Nowhere
can curfew be established except at the
request of parents expressed In ballots.
The law no more interferes with pa
rental rights and personal liberty than
laws on compulsory education and
child labor. The school and the curfew
bell are equally justified as safeguards
Of public morals. Laws forbidding the
sale Of liquors and tobacco and corrupt
literature to minors have long since IL
lustrated the duty Of the state to Inn
mature youth. Gladstone says that II
Is the purpose Of law to make It as hard
as possible to do wrong, and as easy as
possible to do right No intelligent
view Of personal liberty justifles turn

and razors. The most inspiring watch

CHANGER The testimony Of cities which
have tried the curfew is uniformly To-
vorable. The law has not destroyed
civil liberty, nor promoted communism;
It has not proved difficult Of enforce
ment, and has been we'll observed. II
has checked hoodlumism. A chief of
police who opposed the ordinance at
first repented as he heard the steady

One Of the conspicuous elements of
the torpedo's value is the fear which IT'S
use excites. The fact that It's location
Is secret and It's attack well-nigh IRE
sistble, says a contributor In Frank
Leslie's Monthly, gives 1t power'of IN
timidation out Of all proportion to It's
&cttlal potency, and makes fleets un-
willing to face It. It caused terror and
decentralization at the battle Of LISA,
and Later, in the Franco-German war Of
1871, the French feet was actually
frightened out of Prussian ports by the
rumor and beMef that numerous torpe-
does had been planted for their recep-
ton. A striking instance Of the effec-
tiveness Of the torpedo is found In the
sinking Of the Blanco Encalada In Chill
from injuries thus inflicted during the
revolution Of 1891. The whole Of Presi.
dent Balmaceda's feet present had
Joined the insurgents, when suddenly
his two swift torpedo vessels, the
Lynch and Condell. arrived at Valparai-
SO. They were armed with two four.
teen-pounder guns and four torpedo
tubes. They Immediately attacked the
Blanco Encalada, and the ironclad was
taken completely by surprise. She had
no protective net out, and no guard
boats were patrolling, while portion
Of the crew was on shore. After two
or three futile attempts the Lynch ap.
preached the Encalada within fifty
yards and discharged a torpedo, which
struck the ironclad abreast the engine
room. The explosion was tremendous
Many were killed. and the ship keeled
ever and sank in five minutes. The tor.
pedo used carried a charge Of about
fifty pounds Of guncotton. Neither OF
the attacking boats was injured, and
this fact and the demonstration thai
such charge Of guncotton striking q
vessel In a vital part Is irresistible, com
bined to give to the torpedo a promi
nence in naval equipment and warfare
It had not before possessed.

The present Is q time Of great oppor-
tunities. It Is testing the preparedness
Of q large number Of men. They see
just the openings for which they have
waited for years. but they find TOO
often and too late that they are not
prepared to take advantage Of them.
Men, and especially young men, are too
apt to argue that al they need is the
opportunity. The preparedness, they
imagine, VIII come Of Itself. They find
out their mistake when some quiet man
who has spent years In thoroughly
drilling and training himself steps in
and takes advantage Of the opening for
which many have waited but have not
prepared themselves.
