lead ore was being quoted at so
per ton, or at the rate of S35 per
1000 pounds. Inquiries here as to
the market value of lead ore to min
ers in the local market eliciied the
fact that it was only worth about
$40 per thousand, or Sl6 less than
ore of no higher grade was bring
ing at Joplin. Possibly here we
have located the discouraging in
flnence that has driven men from
our mines. Is it good policy on
part of the "claim" owners to put
sue such a course, A little more
liberality toward the miners in
this matter might bring about n
reopening of our mines.

Rate legislation.

At length, out of the reek and
turmoil of the windy decIamations
of so many years, some ideas are
beginning to evolve in regard to
the proper functions of the Gov
ernment with respect to control Of
the railroads. In an address last
week before the Pittsburg Chamber
of Commerce Senator Knox laid
down some principles which, it is
believed, will govern the attitude
of the majority in Congress at the
coming session and which will rep
resent the best public opinion on
the matter. Two years ago Sena-
tor Knox, then Attorney General
of the United States, was in doubt
as to CONGRESSES authority to deal
with railway rates. Since then he
has developed into conviction
that it is both the power and duty
of Congress "to regulate commerce
so rs to prevent injustice and im-
position by carriers" AS Mr..
Knox is one of the ablest lawyers
in the country, this opinion has a
high interest and value, and prob
ably reflects accurately the growth
Of public opinion iu the courts and
law nak!ng bodies. Senator Knox
goes on to build upon this premise
an outline of what he considers the
proper course for Congress to pur-
sue. The rate making power
should be entrusted to the railroads
and to the railroads alone, but it Is
the Governments duty to see that
these rates are fair and impartial.
This supervisory power must be
lodged in the Interstate Commerce
Commission. The shippers first
recourse will he to that Commits
| sion, with a complaint that he is
being unfairly treated or discrirai
| mated against by the railroad OF
railroads. The Commission shal
tako immediate action, and apply
the remedy by mandate to the
railroad to act fairly. This man
date must take effect ut esace in or
der to give the stirTes 4 reTict
which wal be of value. The mex
matter, and one of the almost del;
cacy ans importance, IS as to wha
extent the court skull interven'
and what their relation shall be tc
tho Interstate CoE,nerce Com
fmission. TO be at esl effective til,
Commissions action must be in
stant and peremptory, but at the
same time it must not, any mor'
than any other one of our institu
tions, be n despotisn beyond th'
power of the courts. The rail
