Senator Foraker's bill to amend the in
terstate commerce law provides for en-
joining the publishing and charging Of
excessive rates and any determinations by
the railroad. but it does not confer upon
the commission the power to fix rate.
The railroads are to do as they please
about that, just as they always have,
while the commission is powerless to en-
force violations. as it always has been.
Canada has a law whereby she reg
ulates her railway rates, which has proven
practical, and she does not let the rail-
roads fix their own charges. as is done in
this country. In the Dominion the rail-
road rate making power is given to three
commissioners. They are appointed for
a term of ten years, and like judges, con-
not be removed except by impeachment.
They have absolute power in rate making.
A railroad connot change rate without
their permission. AS court they listen
to the complaints of the shippers and il
there is discrimination the wrongs are
adjusted by them. They not only have
the power of making the rates. but they
are empowered to enforce their own rul.
ings. No other official has jurisdiction.
This is what should be done in the
!, United States. This is the idea of Presi-
dent Roosevelt, but will Congress. carry
out the Presidents wishes9 1t is hardly
likely, the railroads own too many of our
U. S. Senators to permit any such bill
to become Q law.

full Organization.

UTICA. y. Y. Aug. ce.-Just within
the gates of Forest Hill Cemetery. at
Utica, y. Y, the visitor sees a cur
ious oval stone resting upon a grass
plot. A century ago Oneida county was
the reservation OF the powerful tribe of
Oneida Indians, the second nation in the
Confederation of the iroquois.
The first settlement of the Oreidas,
so their history rms. was near the lake
which bears their name. a century be-
fore Columbus steered his ships into
Western seas.
1t was there that they found the stone
and adopted 1t as their sacrificiai altar.
"Onia" is the dialect word for stone and
from II comes Oneida" the tribal name,
children of the stone.''
Indispensable Shrine
As the tribe increased in numbers
veneration Of the monolIth grew until it
became the Indispensable shrine of the
Oneidas
When the nation removed from the
region OF the lake to their encampmcat
where now is the town of Stockbridge,
the rock. according to their legend, went
before them without the assistance Of
human hands. and deposited itself in the
a Side and fertile valley.
IN this wood It remained until the in
fiux of th.. white settlers and the march
OF civilization dispersed the tribe.
Got Rid of 1t.
In ls4s. when the Forest Hill Cemetery.
at Utica, was laid out. the trustees
learned that James Gregg of Stock
bridge. on whose farm the stone rested.
was desirous that it should be removed
TO some public inclosure.
Its removal was thereupon secured.
At the dedication of the cemetery the
remnants of the once powerful nation
and q handful OF Onondagas were pres
ent. Their head chief Ononeogon made
an address which was the yaledictory
of the Oneidas
The little group OF Indians then sang
their national songs around the relic
and surrendered il TO the care of their
white brethren. Today the tribe has
completely lost its identity

There was much conjecture this morn

may deem IL advisable to submit but a
portion of the modified demands at this
