Governor Cummins than it has for
Governor La Toilette. Last week ii

Moines speech ''the effort Of a very
angry man. So angry that he could

According to some Of these travel
ing educators, they have done

changed the majority Of newspapers
in entire states from pro-regulation
viewpoint to stanch friendship for
the railroads in the contention of the

tremendous powers of persuasion
and the before mentioned elastic ex-
pense account, had changed the press

Besides the resident representa-
tives, the agency employs a large
but unknown number of travelling
Representatives. In all cases these
travelling educators" have been
newspaper men. They are paid
generous salaries and are allowed
very elastic expense accounts. Their
business is principally among the
country editors. They are profess
sional "jolliers" Their mission is
t, secure the publication Of matter
prepared by the bureau editors with
out being over-sensitive as to the
methods employed. 81 q q
The railroad men are dividing in
to two sections for the purpose of

western section, each having a com
