REIeHT RATES,

THE REPORT Of the Commercial club
committee appointed 60 look into
The matter Of freight rates in this ter
fitory indicates that the traffic officials
81 the railroads are disposed to meet
The business community at least half
way. They have asked for g delay Of
sixty days in order that they may Sc
tuFe data for q revision Of their. sched-
nles, and it IS entirely probable that
the rates win be adjusted in a manner
satisfactory TO the shippers and to the
public. It is very pleasant to see the
two interests prepared to promote har-
mony.
The railroads would have a hard time
getting along without the shippers. and
the shippers would practically be
forced cut OF business if 1t We're not
Tor the railroads. The business COM
Tnunity and the railroads have so much
IN common that it is hard TO hurt one
without hurting the other. Unreasona-
bic freight rates mean a reduction in
shipments and consequent falling of
IN railroad revenue. Reasonable and
equitable freight rates mean increased
shipments. One follows the other as
naturally as night follows day.
And in the end the consumer is the
real beneficiary. That is to say. every
citizen is a beneficiary. for every citi-
zen, no matter how much or how little
he produces. is a consumer. He has to
eat, he has to wear clothes. he is
obliged 10 have all the necessities Of
lie and as many Of the comforts as he
can permit. The Individual benefit from
2 reduction in freight rates may hardly
be appreciate, but in the aggregate it
amounts to a round sum that is well
worth saving.
There is reason now for believing that
Is VIII not be necessary for local ship
pers 10 take any radical action against
the railroad companies. They have a
thorough understanding Of the sitUa-
lion. and, il there is anything in indi-
Uations. they may be depended upon to
10 the right thing by all concerned.

FALL OF ADDIcKs.

DEOPLE WHO THINK they know
1 are saying that J. Edward Addicls
Of Delaware. "Gasman" Addicks, is
dead, financially and politically. It is
true that many suits for large amounts
Of money have been fled against him
recently; il is true that former political
associates have deserted him. it is true
that he has the appearance Of a man
who is crushed. But Addicks has been
crushed before and he may arise from
this prostration as he has risen before
The worst feature OF Addicks' present
downfall IS the treacherv of which the
men whose fortunes he has made have
been guilty. J. Frank Alice, sent 10 the
United states senate by Addicks, is
said to be one Of them. Report mas it
that Alice has spurned Addicks. It is
claimed that while ostensibly building
Cor the "Gasman." Alice has been build
ing for himself. Now that he has
reached the point where he no longer
needs Addicks, Alice is too good TO as
sociate with him longer.
Even If the worst has happened to
Addicks. however, he IS entitled to no
sympathy. He said on one occasion: ST
have no friends except my dollars.
What I get buy and pay for" No
man who entertains such a sentiment
has ever made a lasting success in
either business or politics. With money
it is possible to buy a great many
things in this world. but personal 10y
atty is not one Of them. The most pop
ular Of our public men have been our
poorest public men. They had some
thing about them that commanded 10y
atty.
Addicks goes down because, trusting
nobody. nobody trusted him. He goes
down because having made many Grim
mails, his fellow criminals thought it no
sin to betray him. Not q man Of them
ali was for Addicks because he was Ad-
dicks All were for him because he
could pay them for their services. Now
that he is stripped of his money they
are deserving him as he deserves to be
deserted.
And il is barely possible that, as an
outcome OF Addicks' downfall. Delaware
may enjoy a period Of comparative po-
litical cleanliness.

Speaking Of hoboes stealing rides"
gaid the Old brakeman, reminds me
Of bunch I uncovered cnce in Min
nesOta. We were running extra with
train Of range cattle from Montana.
Back in Dakota somewhere a farmer
had put lot Of gentle barnyard steers
in car at the tail end Of the train
IN a little, Old-fashicned cattle car. The
old farmer had built a stall for each
Critter and they were the incest. meek
est steers you ever saw-not like the
wild-eyed Montana critters ahead. We
we're pulling into Minneapolis and
made a stop for the yards Il was not
yet daylight and = prOwled out along
The train 10 see taat everything was
coming all right. 1 smelled tobacco
smoke toward the rear end OF the train,
tut could not find a hobo. anywhere.
/ was puzzled about the thing. 1t was
chilly morning pretty late in the
fan, but ] stepped on the front plat
form Of the cabOose to see If l couldn't
locate that smoke, 1 hate TO have a
stiff steal q ride on me without COM
ing in with a few cents anyway, and
Z wanted that hobo bad. because
knew he would drop of as soon as wa
got into town Finally I thought I
saw smoke coming out OF the end door
ct that Dakota car. ] just swung
across and threw my light into it.
What saw nearly knocked me off the
car. There were sixteen Of the worst
looking stills / ever met in there. Each
enc was sitting on the back Of one OF
those gentle steers, holding 70 the roof
beams Of the car with one hand and
smoking a pipe. You see. they had
found out the car was full Of gentle
stock and figured out il would be nice
and warm en- the backs of the steers.
better seat than on the brakes or
rods and almost no show Of being
caught, because nobody would think Of
looking on the back OF p steer for q
stiff. It was only an accident that I
saw them. I couldn't get to 'em. be-
cause there were 50 many Of 'em and
the train was in motion and I didn't
much like the notion of monkeying
around in q car lUlI of cattle, any
way; so ] just stood there ana cussed
en- for about fifteen minutes until we
pulled into the stock yards at New
Brighton. ] had 10 run out to throw

ANOTHER BRoKsa PLsDeg.

= ENATOR BEVERIDGE. chairman
- of the senate committee on terri
tories, replying TO a question yester-
day, said il was not the intention %
his committee 10 consider statehood
bills at this session of congress. This
means that the territories of Arizona.
New Mexico. Oklahoma and Indian
Territory VIII knock in vain this year
FOR admission 10 the sisterhood of
states. II means that the Republicans
have concluded TO violate and disregard
a pledge made definitely and distinctly
in their last two national platforms.
At St Louis in 1886 they said. I'VE
favor the admission of the remaining
territories at the earliest practicable
date, having due regard to the inter-
ests Of the people Of the territories and
of the United States" In 1900 at Phil
adelphia. they said; I'VE favor home
rule Tor and the early admission 70
statehood Of the territories OF New
Mexico, Arizona and Oklahoma" Near
Is eight years have elapsed since the
pledge first quoted was given. Near
Is four years have elapsed since the
last pledge was made.
Now comes Senator Beveridge with
the statement that no statehood bill
viii be considered at this session OF
congress. And in June. when the Re
publican convention assemblies. the
same old pledge win probably be in
serted in the platform, TO be despised
and disregarded I'm the same old way
IL the Republicans carry the country
next faIl. All Of which is but another
sample OF the consistency FOR which
the Republican party has become so
justly celebrated.

Such reason viii be considered invalid
