A Moment of Embarrassment,

DR.. Benjamin Lee secretary of the
state board of health of Pennsylvania
was talking about the eyes Of foreign
ers compared with those of Americans
Abroad" he said, and especially
IN Italy and in southern France, the
number of persons with bad eyes is
shocking. Indeed, among the poor
nearly every other man you see appears
to have a cross eye, or a blind eye, or
some other optical difficulty.
I'm the excellence of our eyes, even
more than in the excellence of our teeth
we Americans are far ahead of other
nations. Cross eyes are almost un-
known among u.s. Hence, in America
there hardly would have happened the
disaster that happened once in Nice.
"A cross-eyed Frenchman attended
a dance given in the Nice Palais re Ia
Jetee-in the beautiful Casino, off the
Promenade des Anglais, that is built
out over the blue Mediterranean.
AT this dance the Frenchman saw
seated side by side, two ladies whom he
knew. He approached and conversed
for a while with them. Then, the
music starting up, ne looked at the
prettier Of the two and sold:
May I have the honor of this
waltz?'
Both ladies rose simultaneously, and
in the same instant said:
With pleasure"

assurance that the rate bill will be
passed by the senate after reason
able" debate. That word reasonable"
as used in congress means about the
same as the word soon when used
by the late Statistician Hyde of the
agricultural department in telling
he will return to this country from
Reasonable debate can range any
where from ten minutes to ten months,
and in the case of the rate bill 1t is
nearer ten months than ten minutes,
as understood by Senator Elkins.
The railroad rate debate in the SEN
ate is going to be as long and as dry
and uninteresting as the statehood de-
bate in the last congress. Most Of the
speeches will be made to empty desks;
only the speeches of a few prominent
senator's will be listened to carefully.
Most senators will know at the begin
ming of the debate how they will vote
if they have to; the debate will not
change their views, particularly as
they will not listen to the debate.
But while the debate is running,
Senator Elkins, with the aid of some
other very able and experienced sem
ators, will lay all manner of traps to
prevent a vote On the bill favored by
the president, and if they see a vote
can not be averted, will endeavor to
force the passage of the comparative
ly harmless bill which Senator Elkins
will report from the senate.
What Senate Might Do.
The senate, by substituting a harm
less bill for the house bill, could make
all manner of claims as to how it was
endeavoring to intelligently solve this
great problem; could declare the
house bill impractical, and inject
to fool the public, or a considerable
portion of it. But the senate can't
fool the president, and if the senate
tries to palm off a worthless measure
as a substitute for the mouse bill, the
president will take the matter in hand
and undeceive the public and the
house.
1t is we'll understood in Washington
that the senate, or a majority Of the
senate, would prefer to take no vote
on a rate bill of any kind. For this
reason it is expected that every man.
ner Of parliamentary delay will be
brought into play to stave off action.
There are a number of senators, friends
of the aslroads, some of them elected
by railroad influence, VINO would be
obliged to vote for the presidents rate
bill if it came to a vote, and yet they
know the consequences that would at
tend such a vote. These men are be-
tween the mighty influence of the rail-
roads and a we'll defined public senti-
ment, and the middle course of nom
action is the safest one they can take.
But Senator Elkins don't want it to
go before the country that way. He
wants the public to believe he is in
sympathy with the president and will
do what he can to aid in passing a
can imagine the twinkle in his eve
when he publicly professed his interest
bill. Steve Elkins is Smooth 'un."
The Evening statesman. [volume] (Walla Walla, Wash.) 1903-1910, 1905-09-20
Senator EIkins' Plan,

Senator Elkins would have each
rate dispute referred to the circuit
judge in the circuit in which complaint
is made. There would be appeal TO a
court composed of nine circuit Judges.
one from each judicial circuit in the
United States, and appeal from this
court would be direct to the SUI
preme court. Or, if ne can't have this
plan adopted, Senator Elkins would
have all rate disputes referred to cir
cult court judges without the creation
OF new court. He would rob the in
terstate commerce commission of what
little authority it now has.
All this is what Senator Elkins saws
ne VIII favor. But when December
rolls around and his committee gets
down to business, something NAV nam
pen to change his mind. There is no
telling what Elkins is going to do.
The probabilities are that the house
will pass a railroad rate bill early in
the new year, and shortly after the
holiday recess. This bill may not be
all the president would like. but II
will approach the legislation he fav-
ors, and will represent the effort Of
men who are honestly anxious to reeu-
late railroad rates. Notwithstanding
what Senator Elkins says, the senate
will not act hurriedly on the rate
question; there is not one chance n
a hundred that the senate committea

WILL MAKE EFFORT TO DEFEAT
ANY RAILWAY RATE
LEGISLATION.
Saws He Will Call His Committee To-
qether In November to
Frame Bill.

Senator Stephen B. Elkins is one
of the smoothest, slickest and most
adroit politicians in congress. AS
chairman of the committee on inter-
state commerce, Mr.. Elkins will nave
a great deal to do with the railroad
rate legislation which is brought be-
fore the senate at the coming session,
is the story from Washington. He will
probably report the bill to the senate;
he will have charge of the debate
when the bill reaches the senate Gf
such a time snail arrive), and he will
do his very best TO prevent the pas
sage of law such as will be recon-
mended by President Roosevelt.
There is no Disgusting the fact
that Elkins is a railroad senator and
that he is dead opposed to any rate
legislation which is obnoxious to the
roads. He doesn't say this, Of course.
That is not Elkins way He says
quite the contrary. He declares that
ne is going to call his committee to-
gether about the middle of November
to take up and frame a railroad rate
bill prior to the assembling of con-
gress. He expresses confidence that
his committee will frame bill in two
or three weeks that will meet the ap-
prevail of his colleagues and pass the
senate after a reasonable debate And
ne says other things of interest, which
have heretofore been quoted
Committee Divided.
The fact is the senate committee on
interstate commerce is hopelessly di-
vided on the railroad rate question,
and it is not believed that that COM
mittee can agree upon a bill in two
weeks or in two months. In fact the
committee will not be anywhere unan-
imous when it does act, and two bills
will be reported to the senate, one
favored by Senator Elkins, which will
not be the bill favored by President
Roosevelt, and another bill reported
by minority of the committee, which
will more closely meet the ideas of the
president and the men who really
want to regulate railroad rates.
Nobody knows what Elkns is going
to suggest, but whatever it is. he will
represent that his plan is in the inter-
est of the shippers, and will afford
adequate relief against railroad dis
criinations. But the senate, or at
least, the conscientious members of
the senate, will look with suspicion
upon the rate bill brought forward by
Elkins, for the West Virginia senator
mas the reputation in congress of be-
ing an obedient servant of the rail-
roads, and it is not believed he will
bring forward any real rate-regulat
ing bill, at least one that will be of
such character as to cope with the
situation.

NAVAL MEN DO NOT
EXPECT BIG FIGHT
THINK THAT TOGO WILL NOT
RISK HIS VESSELS At PRESENT
IN A GENERAL CONFLICT.

Among naval men II Is thought very
improbable that Admiral Togo WIN
give q pitched naval battle TO Admiral
RoJestyensky for some months TO come.
IN fact II such an engagement occurs
at all II VIII probably be more Of the
seeking by the Russians than Of any
desire on the part Of the japanese to
engage the Russians.
Up TO the present time the Japanese
have conducted their naval operations
with the utmost care at least 80 far
as the use Of their heavier vessels was
concerned. They have readily sacrl-
feed the smaller vessels Of the fleets
but IN no Instance, have Admiral Togo
or Admiral Kamamura risked their
larger vessels. The reason Is self EVIL
dent. The japanese navy Is very linz
tied. They have no reserve fleets on
which 10 call In case Of the present
vessels being incapacitated or lost and
as they must maintain the control Of
the sea at any cost IN order 10 main
tain the line Of communication between
Japan and Manchuria, the naval com
manders are under strict orders not 10
risk their vessels The care which the
japanese have displayed IN this respect
has caused comment among American
naval officers. The heavy pitched bat
tie which Togo fought before Port Ar
thur were essential as the Russian fleet
, came out ana attacked him. Admiral
Knmamura attacked the Vladivostok
squadron with a larger force 80 the
risk was not 80 great IN that engage

BEING BOYCOTTED
TROUBLE BEING EXPERIENCED
IT IS REPORTED IL DIsPOsING
OF HER CARGO OF COAL.

Up 10 noon today the cargo Of coal
aboard the s. $. Olympia had not been
sold. II is now rumored in water
front circles, that there is q boycott on
foot against the coal and that no pur-
chaser is likely TO be found for II.
There has been considerable short
age Of coal IN the local market and II
was thought that the arrival Of the S.

would relieve the condition. But there

no eager desire TO purchase the cargo.
Just what effect this condition may
have upon the departure Of the vessel

said that there Is difficulty being ex-
perlenced in securing stevcdores to

Henry Is Not Candidate
For Sheriff Of Oahu County

Now that County government is as
sured at least until the Supreme Court
may decide otherwise, the various po-
liticians are beginning to trim their
fences and lay fresh wires to enable
them to secure the various offices.
The office Of Sheriff Of oahu county
Is naturally one about which there
centers considerable interest VIII
liam Henry the present High Sheriff Of
the Territory says that he is not a
candidate for that office. IT was
thought that perhaps the High Sheriff
would be a candidate for Office under
the county government but according
to his own statements this morning he
will not be so.
Il am not and never have been "a
