DISCRIMINATION In
FREIGHT RATES SUIT,
TESTIMCIY TO BE TAKEN HERE,
Hearing to Be Held before the In
terstntc Commerce Commission
Hay Association in Litiga-
tion with Railways.

Testimony in the suit of the National
Hay Association against the Lake Shore
and Michigan Southern Railway and
twenty-nine other railway companies will
be taken on Monday in this city at the
Sun Building before the Interstate Com
merce Commission Testimony on behalf
Of the plaintiff was taken at Chicago. ILL.,.
November 7-lO inclusive and completed.
The plsintiG is represented by Attor-
neys John b. Daish, Charles c. Cole and
E. Richard Shipp, of this city. The dir
ferent railroads are represented by spe-
cial counsel. Adelbert Moot Buffalo. N
Y. and Judge J. s Wall. OF Chicago.
Preferential Rates Against Hay.
The Hay Association claims that the
railroads named as defendants dis
criminate against hay in favor OF corn
wheat. and oats, and other agricultural
products. II is claimed by the counsel
for the association that this contention
has been sustained by 'he testimony sub
mitted at Chicago.
Mr. Daish, Of counsel for the associ-
alton. in conversation with reporter,
said this afternoon:
IT would appear from a careful read
ing OF the petition filed in this case. and
from the answer made by the different
"a tread companies. and the testimony
taken on behalf Of the plaintiff, that there
is no possible reason why the rates on
hay. as established by the official classi-
flcatIon committee, should be what they
are
Distribution of Territory.
"It must be understood that the terri
tory covered by the various trunk lines
in the United States is divided into three
groups, known as the official territory.
comprising all OF that district lying east
Of the Mississippi and north Of the Ohio
Rivers; the Southern classification terri
tory. lying east of the Mississippi and
south of the Ohio. aid the Western classi-
fication territory. lying west of the
Mississippi River.
From the testimony introduced in Chi
cago it would appear that the rates on
hay as established in the official classi-
fication territory. were much higher than
those adopted in the Southern and West
crH territory. The effect OF this classl-
fication has been to shut out the dealers
and shippers OF hay from the great Middle
West In the New England and Eastern
markets, compelling them to seek new
markets and new customers for their
products.
An Important suit.
"A great deal depends" he said, upon
this hearing as to the rights Of the pro-
ducer and the shipper of hay"
The hearing viii probably continue for
week or ten days, and it is understood
that the full membership OF the Interstate

gives his Gettysburg address and an ez-

which is called n sacred prose poem. Here
are a few lines from II:
"Fondly do We hope. fervently do we
pray, that this mighty scourge OF war
may speedily pass away. With malice to-
ward none. with charity for all. with
firmness in the right as God gives MS 10

work we are in; to bind up the nation
wounds: to care for him who shall have
borne the battle. and for his widow and
orphans; to do all which may achieve and
cherish a just and lasting peace among
ourselves and with all nations

lamaiion and some of his state papers rs

although Ridpath does not quote Mr.
Roosevelt: these two encyclopedias of lit
erature notice the same Presidents. cN-
Ccpt that Ridpath alone quotes Monroe
and Warner Mr. Roosevelt. Here are
few lines from one of the extracts from
Mr Roosevelt's Winning Of the West
in which a tribute is paid the backwooda-
man:
From n RooseVeIt Book.
"The backwoodsmen were above all
things cbaracteristically American: and it
is fitting that the two greatest and most
typical of all Americans should nave been
respectively a sharer and an outcome Of
their work Washington himself passed
the most important years OF his youth
leading the Western movement Of his
people. The only other man who in the
American roll Of honor stands by the side
of Washington was Uorn when the dis
tinctive work Of the pioncer had ended;
and yet he was bone of thelr bone and
flesh of their flesh; for from out the loins
of this gaunt frontier folk sprang mighty
Abraham Lincoln.

are or have been in public life whose
writings appear luminously upon the
pages of hese Libraries are Blaine,

The Dread of storms.

And thus the weather signs run. and
they might be piled up without limit for
they are stin believed in by many persons
who stand in the glare Of the age, and
weather maps cannot destroy pictures
partly real
But the psy, biology Of the storm is prob
ably more serious because of the feeling
Of dread which comes over The person
afraid Of the wind The black cloud is a
black terror. it means that a hard wind
will follow. and that the house may be
blown down, or that the ships Iaay be
wrecked at sea. or that something may
happen. something dreadful and some
thing out of tic ordinary. This feeling OF
dred is r-!ore intense IN regions that are
frequented by severe winds ia regions
where homes are incomplete without
storm cellars, or in coast regions where
there is great danger from an incoming
tide. In regions OF this sort the inhabi
tants watch the clouds closer than the
mariner watches his compass. They be-
come slygazers, and they fall back upon
the old signs with more reliance than
they would give the new tangled methods
OF forecasting. The signs and the circles
Of the weather man DO not mean so much
rs the signs which one may dnd in ma
ture's humber creature or in a thousand
other things which might be put down IN
the storms psychological category.
There is a black cloud in the west and
once before II blew a hurricane, and the
lightning flashed furiously. and the dear
old granny must needs cram one between
the feather beds lest one be struck by
fash when the storm breaks.-New Or
leans Times Democrat

Don't bet on elections. Aside from
the moral principle involved it is foolish
to gamble on subject where your
enthusiasm impairs your judgment. If
your party wins there is JOY enough in
the victory; IL your party loses, you give

of party triumph and your money be-
