Judgment for the Grain Growers.

The railroad and warehouse commits
sion has filed its answer to the
complaint Of the grain growers of the
state. When an answer interposes> no
defense to a complaint when all it
states, taken as true, fails to present
an issue on the allegations Of the COM
plant, the court will direct Judgment
for the plaintiff on the pleadings. The
plaintiffs in this case, the grain growers
and marketers Of the state are clear
ly entitled to judgment on their prayer
for the entire abolition of the grain
inspection system.
What is the complaint? That the sys-
tenn utterly fails Of its pretended pur-
pose of protecting the grain grower,
and operates to his injury, and sole
ly, if at all, to the benefit of the deal
ers at the terminals; that an inspec-
ton that is made at terminal point
can be of no possible benefit to the
farmer, who has sold the inspected
grain long before in the primary mar
ket that the system but adds to the
uncertainties Of the market, against
which the local buyer must guard, by
irterpOsing between him and that mar
ket the judgment Of another person as
to the quality of the grain he has
bought on his own Judgment, against
which added uncertainty he can only
protect himself by paying a less price
to the producer, which he does under
the guise Of giving to the grain a lower
grade than it is entitled to; that it
interferes with the freedom Of con-
tract, and that 1t assumes that the
farmer is incapable Of self-guidance.
Wherefore they demand the entire re-
peal Of the laws relating to inspection
of grain.
How does the commission meet these
allegations? The voluminous answer
denies no material allegation. It may
be summarized in the closing para
graphs Of the answer, wherein it is
stated that the laws of the state
impose certain duties upon the COM
mission; that these the commission
scrupulously performs; that the in
spectors are capable and honest and
perform their duties to the best of their
ability; that as to whether the system
should be retained or abolished the
commission has no opinion. There are
some testimony and many figures to
sustain the statements of the answer,
none of which is directed to the spe-
cif1c allegations Of the complaint

have before me your official report for the
year ending Nov. 80, 1897. 1t appears from
this report that the expenses Of the wheat
inspection department for the year ending
Nov. 80, 1897, were SIZE, 22O.97, and for tie
twelve years Of the existence Of this law
the expenses of this department were ST.
437, 395. IS. This was taken from the proceeds
of the grain shipped by the farmers and
during that twelve years Minnesota wheat has
deprecated in value TO a far greater extent
than the soft wheat in the states south Of
us where they have no state officials to in

into your department from the proceeds OF
the wheat shipped. So far as I know the
farmers in this vicinity a unit this
question. When Mr.. Clausen says that he
has locked some of our wheat this year
twenty pounds to the bushel do not dis

that Mr.. Clausen docks our wheat too much.
When the farmer complains Of the grade mis-
consignee writes him that he ordered the
wheat re-inspected and the inspection was
sustained. That ends it. No responsibility
attaches to the consignee; he is entirely alb

be true if he is purely a commission man,

just the escape from responsibility that he
needs in his business.

MURDER IN WASHINGTON

George W. Horton last night killed
Jane Nicholson in Seaton Park, Wash:
ington. The murder was committed
about half,past seven o'clock, and the
evidence shows it to have been de-
iiberately planned as the result OF
isalously of the man. Horton had
known the woman for long time, and
had recently become very jealous OF
her. He made an appointment yester.
day to meet her last evening about I
o'clock at the entrance to Seaton Park,
commonly known as Armory Square,
opposite the Baltimore and Potomac
station. They met at the appointed
place. and Horton asked her TO accom-
pany him into the park. AS they
walked down the path be pulled from
his pocket a small penknife, and with
out word of warning struck her in the
back of her neck. The wound was o
fearful one, being directly above the
spinal column and extending several
inches. The woman fell forward with
a cry, but Horton caught her, raised
her head and cut her throat. He then
stabbed her under both eyes and in the
lip and, throwing away the penkniie,
attempted to pull her windpipe through
the great cash in her threat. Acolored
man came by at the time and Horton
walked up Four-and-a-half street, fol-
lowed by this man, who gave the alarm.
At the corner of Pennsylvania avenr @
and Four-and-a half street he was ar
rested. He told the officers that he
had taken twelve grains OF cyanide
of potassium and expected to
die at any moment. He was
taken to lunchroom and given large
quantity of black coffee. While in the
lunchroom Horton calmly discussed all
the details of the murder. He admit
ted that he had killed the woman in
cold blood, and said that he was glad
Gift. and that he would do it again if
necessary. His brutality was again ex'
hibited when be arrived at the sixth
precinct. Bis wife, from whom ne mao
been divorced, called to see him. She
wept profusely, but Horton raaiptsined
s stony countenance, and not only re-.
pulsed her, but gloried in his deed:
His language and conduct slckened
even the most hardened Of the police
officers. In the meantime the emer-
gency ambulance had been summoned,
but the woman was dead when it reach
ed the scene. The body was taken to
