sistence Of &the President upon the pas
sage Of a bill to empower the Interstate

charged BY railways in interstate affairs.
The reduction bills have not been taken
wholly seriously by the majority Of the
Democrats. nor. by the Republicans them
selves. The Recommendation OF The
President tina t the Congress enact legi la
u ton giving the control OF freight rates
ITO The Interstate Commerce Commission

party OF Republican members and sena-

the President will be defeated are nalu-

There have not yet appeared any evil

1t is not to be supposed that the men

such law without all possible Influence

the effort will be successful. 1t is hard
