Railway Rate LEGISLATION

At the bienniahl convention of the
Order of Railway Conductors recently
held at Portland, Oregon, resolutions
were unanimously adopted voicing their
sentiments as to the effect Of proposed
railway rate legislation on the ,300,-
900 railroad employees, whom they in
part represented. These resolutions
endorse the attitude of President
Roosevelt in condemning secret rebates
and other illegalities, and commend
the attitude of the heads of American
railways, who, with practical unanim-
ity, have joined with the president on
this question" They then respectfully
point out to congress the "inadvisabil-
ity of legislation vesting in the hands
of commission power over railway
rates, now lower by far in the United
States than in any other country" be-
cause such legislation would result
in litigation and confusion and newt
ably tend to an enforced reduction in
rates, irrespective of the question Of
the ability Of the railroads to stand
the reduction, especially in view Of
the increased cost Of their supplies and
materials" They further protested
against such power being given to the
present interstate commerce commits
sion because "the proposed legislation
is not in harmony with our idea of
American jurisprudence, inasmuch as
it contemplstes that single body shall
have the right to investigate, indict,
try, condemn and then enforcre its de-
cisions at the cost Of the carriers, pend
ing appeal, which is manifestly in
equitable"
The conductors base their demand
for only such legislation, il any, as
would secure and insure justice and
equity and preserve equal rights to all
parties concerned on the ground that
the low cost of transportation lis the
result Of the efficiency Of American
railway management and operation
which have built up the country
through constant improvement and de-
velopment of territory, while at the
same time recognition has been given
to the value of intelligence among en-
ployes in contrast to foreign methods,
where high freight rates and lowest
wages to employees obtain"
In pressing their clam against leg
islation adverse to their interests, they
point out the fact that 1.-THE freight
rates of this country average only two
per cent of the cost of articles to the
consumer, thus making the freight rate
so insignificant factor in the selling
price that numerous standard articles
are sold at the same price in all parts
of the country.

JOHN REDMOND IS
 TO CHANGE TACTICS
PROTESTS AGAINST HIS OBSTRUc- TON POLICY ARE COMING IN FROM ALL PARTS OF THE coUN- TRY.

London, July 27--John Redmond the na- tionaist leader, and his followers con tinued their obstructionist tactics of blocking private bills in the House O. Commons commenced yesterday, but ac- cording to the, Morning Post as the re- suit of remonstrances which have reached them from all parts of the country rep resenting the injustice which such tac- tics infiict on a large body of working men, they have decided to withdraw all further opposition to such bills.
 A dispatch from London July 26, com menting on the threatened plan of op- position to make government business inn possible, said that one phase of MT. Redmonds obstructionist tactics which was likely to cause great resentment con- sisted in blocking private bills for en- terprises promoted at vast expense by municipalities and commercial companies for public works, such as railroads and tramways. and that no less than twenty seven such bills were blocked during the session ending at o'clock on the morn ing of that day, the effect being to delay their operation for a whole year.

JOHN BULL RESENTS
 CAPTURE OF CAPTAIN
Warshp May Be Sent to Uruguay to Guard Rights of
 Fisherman.

Washington, July 26.-Official advices reaching Washington fail to show any relief in the acute situation which has been developing for some time past be- tween Great Britain and Uruguay over the Imprisonment and capture of the crew of the Canadian fishing vessel Az nes Donohue for alleged poachng.
 Several months ago the British gov ernment laid before the state department full statement of the case. and the American minister to Uruguay was in- structed to use his good offices to assist in an amicable settlement. The British government takes the general theory that as the contract of the Uruguayan government giving to certain company the exclusive right to fish in certain waters was private contract. and was not communicated to or recognized by foreign governments the capture of a Canadian ship for fishing in those waters was illegal
 Despite strong representations, how ever, the Canadian captain remains in prison and London is now considering the advisability of sending a warship down the American coast. This step, however. will be taken only after every diplomatic method has been exhausted to obtain the release of the prisoners. The London government is not averse to settlement of the matter by arbitra- ton, but the Uruguayan government has thus far refused to arbitrate.
 Washington would like to see the mat ter settled by arbitration. and the Amer ican minister will work to this end.

ELECTION WILL BE
 HELD NEXT MONTH
OFFICERS IN SECOND REGIMENT ARE VERY MUCH INTERESTED IN THE OUTCOME OF ELECTION FOR COLONEL,

Interest in the Second regiment, A. N. G., is centered now in the election for colonel. which will be held next month. The line officers of the regiment are said to be about equally divided between Col onel Graves and Lieutenant Colonel Bricken, and the result promises to be close.
 Some time ago 1t was figured in military circles that Lieutenant Colonel Bricken would have an easy victory and it was generally admitted even by Colonel Graves friends that the former would be elected.
 In the past few days. however, the con- ditions seemed to have changed and the friends of Colonel Graves now think that he has very good chance to be elected.
 The colonel of regiment in the Ala hama national guard is elected by vote of the thirty-six line officers of the regi- mcnt, who are the captains and lieuten- ants of the twelve companies. It re- quires nineteen votes to elect.
