WHAT LAFOLLETTE SAYS
Advocates Very Point Senate. Struck
Out of Railroad Bill

In the current number of the Satur-
day Evening Post, Governor La Fol-
lette of Wisconsin continues his dis
cussion of railroad rate regulation,
and he takes a strong stand in favor
of the very provision which the Kan
sas senate this week knocked out OF
the. Carver bill-allowing the railroad
commissioners to adjust rates upon
their own motion as well as upon the
complaint of shippers. Here is what
Governor La Toilette says on the sub
ject:
II am strongly of the opinion that
while it should be the duty of the
commission to investigate all COM
plants, their action should not be
made to wait upon the filing of the
complaint The great body of the
people, who, in the aggregate, suffer
the burdens and wrongs of excessive
transportation charges, cannot appear
before the commission to make com
plants The consumers of coal and
merchandise and special commodities
are the ones who really pay the
with the railroads and do not pay
freight to the railway company at all.
The dealer who sells to the consumer
pays the freight in the first instance,
but charges it against his customer.
Thus, to limit the action of any COM
made is practically to destroy the value
of railway regulation at all for the
great body of the people,
Governor La Toilette has acquired
a. national reputation by reason of his
fight for just freight rates and equit-
able railroad taxation in Wisconsin.
He has made careful study of the
railroad question. Concerning what
ought to be accomplished by railroad
commission he writes as follows:
1.-THE development of all the states re-
sources, the diversifcatiOn and interde-
pendence of its industry, and the ready
and free exchange of it's commodities,
with an even, ell-distributed growth in
towns and centers of population, are
all natural objects of special care on
the part of a state railway commission.
It is true that the boundaries of a state
are not the boundaries of its commerce,
although there are always natural ten
denotes to commercial centers within
the state. Although it is also true in a

GETS ANOTHER CHANCE.
Rehearing OF Townsend Damage Suit
Granted i'm Supreme Court.

The attorneys in the appealed case
of George W. Townsend versus The
Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railroad
company have been granted a chance
to reargue the case before the su-
preme court.
Townsend was allowed a judgment
of $3.50 in the district court of Dick
inson county. In the present case the
railroad is represented by G.. W. Hurd
of Abilene. and Townsend is repre-
sented by Ed Little.
Townsend, who is a Dickinson coun-
ty farmer, sued the railroad company
on account of the death of his wife,
who was killed by a train. Mrs. Town
send was driving across the Santa Fe
tracks through a cross-cut road. and
was instantly killed by a passenger
train. The railroad at that point runs
through a deep cut at a point crossing
an old public road. The road was
necessarily lowered to the grade of
the railroad, and is considered a dan
gerous place, as an approaching train
cannot be seen until the driver of a
wagon is upon the track.

BOOM IN STOCKS.
Started by Rumor of a Big Railway
Combine.

New York, Feb. 25.-Speculative
| excitement was rampant on the stock
| exchange this morning. The largest
trading centered about the stocks af-
! railroad combination across the con-
| tfnent from ocean to ocean, including
New York Central, Chicago & North
| western and Union Pacific. These
stocks were all violently affected and
spread a sympathetic influence into
other stocks in modified degree.
| Opening sales of New York Central
were of 10000 shares, all the Way
from 15S to 159. Union Pacific was
bought at the opening to the extent
of 1000 shares from 1856 u to 137 q.
1t subsequently, touched an eighth
before reacting. The rise in North
western ran to seven points and in its
su bsidiary stock, Chicago, st. Paul.
Minneapolis and Omaha to four
points The opening bulge invited
heavy realizing and there were sharp
reactions from the top level New
York Central fell back 1 Il, Union Pa
cif1c / q and Northwestern 5 points
The heavy dealings in Pennsylvania
were apparently in sympathy with the
New York Central movement the
opening sales Of 2 IS, 900 shares running
from 142H to 142A with a subse-
subsequently ran off a point.
The whole market yielded during
the course of the first hour and prices
in some cases fell below last night
stocks had run from 1 to points and
upwards
The material advances at the OPEN
ing received additional impetus from
London where the range for Amer
leans was generally higher, due, no
doubt, to buying orders received from
New York. OF the several stocks that
opened, Pennsylvania was most gem
orally bought. Brokers representings
Philadelphia and other out of town
houses were large purchasers of this
reported increased business from vari-
Gus out of town points. The buying of
Pennsylvania, Union Pacific, New York
Central and several of the more active
issues was of such indiscriminate and
general character as to defy analysis.
Naturally the concurrent rise in New
York Central, Pennsylvania and Chi
cago & Northwestern. the latter gain
ing z points soon after the opening
gave rise to renewed gossip as to
DEALS mergers and the like. OF actual
news there was none. The southern
Iron and Coke properties which were
the chief features of strength a few
days ago, were today rather reaction
ary.
The tone of the stock market was
feverish and unsettled for a time with
heavy realizing in the active leaders but
after the appearance of the favorable
bank statement the most active stocks
shot up again and the market became
very animated again. New York Cen
trail touched 1901. Pennsylvania went
near to 144 and st. Paul touched 1S0.
Union Pacific met heavy offerings
which kept it below its previous high
price

are reasonable and just to the railway
companies.
zone of the most important duties
of a commission should be to protect
the public from the wrongs inflicted
upon it by pitaIzation on the
part of the corporation. The state
should know the value of its railroad
properties, and it should be unlawful
for railroad companies to issue stocks
and bonds without first having estab
lished. to the satisfaction of the COM
mission or other authority represent
ing the state, that there is full value
back of every dollar or tne obligation
represented by the stock and bond
issue.
"The work of the commission in
fixing rates must stand or fall as it
meets the tests which will be applied
in a court of appeals, where such
work is very certain to go for re-
view. To be sustained, rates must be
just and reasonable to the railway COR
porations. In fixing the rate, there
fore, if the commission is to do justice
to the public it must reduce the rate
as much as possible, and still make it
fairly and justly remunerative and
profitable to the railway companies.
This requires a technical and expert
knowledge of traffic conditions and Of
the cost of railway construction,
maintenance and operation. When
ever test is made in court of the work
of railway commissioners they will
find themselves confronted by the
ablest traffic experts in the employ Of
the great railway companies. These
they should be fitted to combat"

HOCH IS ANGRY.
Governor Replies to Bale Waggener's
Charges in Senate.

Governor Hoch is vexed about Bale
Waggener's remarks before the SEN
ate yesterday.
Il understand Waggener made a
public attack on me yesterday" said
the governor this morning. HE
should not shoot off his mouth until he
has at least a vague idea of what he
is talking about. The fact is. I have
neither seen nor heard of that Allen
Price raid report, and it has never
been in this office to my knowledge
since have been here. Waggener
should substitute a little judgment for
some of his talk, and think twice be-
fore he makes charges against me or
anyone else
Secretary T. A. McNeal said that the
report had never passed through his
hands and that it had not been hidden
or pigeon-hoIed in that Office.

Santa Barbara. Cal.

Kansas City, Feb. 25-W. B. Clarke,
president of the United States Trust
company, of Kansas City, died late yes
terday afternoon at Santa Barbara.
Cal, where he had gone in the hope
of benefiting his health.
Mr.. Clarke went to California soon
after the Christmas holidays. Mrs.
panied him. At that time he was suf-
fering from Overwork, His physicians
said he was threatened with nervous
prostration and ordered a complete rest
with change of air and climate. The
trip to California was then decided upon.
1t was believed that the change was do
ing him good His friends in Kansas
City had no intiInation that his condi-
ton had grown serious.
William Bingham Clarke's first am
bition was to be a lawyer ,and he stu
died law and was admitted to the Ohio
bar. For five years after that he was
employed in two of Cleveland's largest
carve out an independent career in the
west, and he moved to Abilene, Kan,
and started a bank of his own. When
the BOOM collapsed in Abilene he re-
moved to Junction City, Kan, and or
ganized a First National bank, which
he subsequently bought and changed
into a private institution, known as
Clarke's bank.
The panic of 1873 did not spare the
young fnancier, and he was compelled
to make an arrangement with his cred
itors- He had established a reputation
for honesty and ability that stood him
in good stead at this time, however, and
he was able to keep his bank open At
the end of seven years he had paid off
all his Indebtedness, with interest, and
had materially added to his reputation
as an honest business man and financier
