TWO NEW sWEEPERS.
They Are Received by the City
Today.

Topeka's two new street sweepers
and new sprinkler arrived today over
the Santa Fe from Chicago. Street
Commissioner Snyder will unload them
from the cars this afternoon and they
will be put to work at once.
The sprinkler will be used to go
ahead of the sweepers and lay the dust.
1t is believed that the use of the sweep
ers will entirely dispense with the use
of the white wings force, and will en-
able the city to clean the streets with
much less time and expense than at
present is necessary. The two sweep
ers and the sprinkler cost 81, 900.

Judge Brace Instructs Body in Regard
to Difference Between Brib-

nrst session Of the special grand jury
called to investigate charges of bOodling
and grating made against city and
county officials was held today. The
panel % the jury was completed yes
terday
In his charge. Judge Brace pointed
out the difference between extortion and
bribery, and referred the jurors to the
sections Of the statutes which deal with
the various forms Of fraud which may
be practiced by public officials.
There is a distinction between brib-
cry and extOrtiOn that you must not
lose sight Of" he said. "A well-de-
fined and clearly marked difference eX-
lists between these two ofenses. In brib-
cry both the bride giver and the bride
taker are guilty. In extortiOn, which
may be said to consist of blackmail by
public official. who by virtue of or
under cover Of his official position. re-
quires the payment OF delivery TO him
of anything of value that he is not en-
titled to ask or receive. only the public
official thus offending is guilty"

CHICAGO, Dec. IO.-''If the fight for

gard him as other than one of the
great men Of the Victorian age. His
usefulness was dependent on this
very fact that he was an interpreter,
not a creator. The age needed such a
genius as his even more, perhaps,
than it needed another creative intel
lect. The gulf between the intellec-
tual conditions of the end of the
eighteenth century and those of the
middle of the nineteenth was I'M
mense. The eighteenth century left
OF binary middle class people firmly
grounded in a system of ethics and
science utterly illogical, untrue, and
more or less misehievous. Fifty years
later the foundations of a sane and
logical popular thought had been laid,
and truth was beginning to be re-
garded as more important than tradi-
tional sentiment. In this work of lay
ing foundations for new thought
Spencer was one Of the pioneers.
Darwin's creative intellect changed
the entire system of scientific thought
il England, and through this the re-
Hgious thought Of the country was
transformed. But Darwin would have
remained unread for a generation but
for his interpreters, Spencer, Huxley,
and the multitude Of other earnest,
honest thinkers who spent their lives
in fighting ancient prejudice. In this
fight Spencer's personality was ever
inspiring. He was holly assailed by
opponents who accused him of being
materialist, whose minds, clouded by
prejudice, failed to understand the
sublime ideaiism which impelled him
In his unfaltering search for truth,
and truth alone, the magnificent cour-
age which sustained him in lifelong
fight with ill-health, the wide-reaehing
enthusiasm which gave birth to his
ambition to bring all knowledge into
harmony with this one great thought
Of evolution. His best monument Is
the enlightened popular thenght of
the world, and his best epitaph might
be the famous saying of Thomas
Paine, with a slight change which
does not really affect the meaning:
"The world was his country and the
love of truth his religion"

FIGHT ON GAS MONOPOLY
STARTED IN BALTIMORE
Bill Prepared Authorizing Establish
ment Of New Company Which Prom
Uses Reduction in Price.

BALTIMORE. Dec 1ss-Announcement
of proposed new gascompany to fight
the present combination has been made
here. Ex-State Senator Onn Bryan, who
made most vigorous fight for dollar
gas at the last session of the Legisla-
ture. is preparing a bin authorizing the
new company to operate.
Under existing laws no new company
can do business in Baltimore except by
special act Of the Legislature The
price Of gas is now S1.1O. and the new
company promises 90-cent gas.
Rumors connect the name of J. Ed
ward Addicks. Of Delaware, with the
new company. Should it fail to obtain
a legislative grant, Mr.. Bryan intimates
that the constitutionality Of the act
which excludes other corporations may
be tested in the courts on the ground
that 1t fosters a monopoly.
Proposed gas legislation in one form
or another has been appearing before
the Legislature at almost every session,
and heretofore one Of the principal re-
suits has been to enrich the lobby Re-
Gently a very large block Of stock in the
combination has been transferred to

DENVER WINS POINT
IN RAILROAD RATE WAR
Atchison and Other Companies Must
Reduce Schedules on Certain Articles.

The Interstate Commerce Commission
I'm an opinion by Commissioner Prouty
has announced a supplemental decision
in the case OF George J. Kindel and the
Denver chamber Of commerce against
the Atchison. Topeka. and Santa Fe
Railway Company, and others. The
points Of the decision are as follows:
Except as to 40 commodities. the de-
PENDANT complied with order of the Com
mission directing that rates from the
Pacific Coast should not be higher to
Denver than to the Missouri River. and
later, pending further investigation, the
number of articles insisted upon as con-
stituting exceptions was reduced 10 g.
In this case il was held by the Commits
sion in it's previous report that defend
ants were warranted in charging a high
er rate to Denver than to the Missouri
River on sugar carried from the Pa
cific Coast, and Il is now further held
that the defendants are justified In
maintaining rates from the Pacific
Coast which are lower 70 Missouri Riv-
er points than to Denver upon rice,
hemp, baking powder. blankets. books,
boot and shoe heels. chocolate. cocoa,
and extracts but that as to all Of the
other commodities mentioned in this re-
port the rate from Pacific Coast points
should not be higher 70 Denver than TO
points on the Missouri River.
