CANADIANS CHANGE
RATES WITH EASE
Their System the One Roosevelt
Favors for United States
Railroads.
BY w. w. JERMANE.

Washington, Sept. 30.-Under the
Canadian railway act of 1903, whenever
Canadian shippers feel that they are
being unduly Disseminated against by
carriers, they may take thfss case to
the railway commission, which, after
hearing all the evidence, decides
whether the rate complained of is I'M
reasonable. If it is unreasonable the
commission names rate. The finding
of the commission is not appealable to
the courts except under certain restrict
ed conditions. And the new rate goes
into effect as soon as it is promulgated.
This is precisely what the president is
demanding for this country.
The Canadian system is working out
beautifully, and, while railways up
there opposed the plan in the beginning,
prevent legislation, they have accepted
the new law in good faith and are now
saying that it is not likely to work
hardship to any Of the parties in in
terest.
Recent Case in Point.
AS an illustration Of how the Cana
dian law works, it is noticed that the
commission has recently made an order
which the railroads have accepted, es-
tablishing lower rate for export grain
from Ontario points to the seaboard.
The order is having the effect of bring
ing grain rates in eastern Canada into
line with the rates from Chicago and
other points in the middle west. The
so-called Philadelphia rate had hitherto
applied from western states to Montreal
for export, while shipments from points
in Ontario were subjected to the So
called New York rate, which is some
what higher. The Ontario millers say
they have thus been subjected to dis
advantage as compared with their
American competitors, and the new or
tended to do away with the alleged dis

Flats Criticized

The superiority of London over Paris
in the matter Of health, and especially
in the matter Of tubercular diseases, is
due principally to the fact that there
are fewer flats in the English metropolis
than in the French. The excessive ele-
walton of buildings designed to be let
in Fats prevents the sunlight from reach
ing the lower rooms, and SO makes these
the breeding places Of every form Of
disease.-Paris Journal.

The cat is square quadraped, and,
as is customary with square quadrapeds,
has its legs at the four corners. If you
want to please this animal you must
stroke it on the back. If it is very
much pleased, il sets up its tail quite

to have nine lives, but in this country

Kentucky's Judiciary is noted for it's
shrewd decisions. It has just adjudged
that the Bible is not sectarian literature
and that it may therefore be useo in the
public schools. The same body once
sagely decided that seven-up is not
game of chance but Of skill---as indeed
it is, in Kentucky. i

Wheat acts more than ever like a pur-
chase. It is these opportunities that
should be taken advantage of by the
Spectator. There is good buying going
on all the time of good character and
expect to see it continued in tho event
of any further rscessions in prices. The
crop of 1904 is short $50 million bushels
and that is what the Spectator should
keep in mind. That is what is going to
do the business. It is said something like
10 million bushels of wheat at Mime
apolis is below contract grade and unfit
for fiourmaking and good deal at St.
Louis is called rotten. If you are bull
and are holding long wheat you are on
the safe side. Stick to your wheat.
The Kansas City Star after making a
thorough canvass of Kansas, Nebraska
and Oklahoma find small supplies Of
wheat The reports received from 800
mills, elevators and stations show 2 mil
lion bushels less in elevators and over
Is million bushels less in farmers hands
than year ago.
The reports received cover over IS per
cent of all the wheat in store in the three
states In Kansas ovr half the reports
show 10 per cent or less remaining on the
farms In Nebraska the average seems
to be about 20 per cent remaining on the
farms and in Oklahoma little or no wheat
remains in first hands. I believe the spec
ulator who buys wheat now and holds it
ought to make a good deal of money.
