Food of the Cod

{ About 1874 William, Drysdale won "a

disc, on which the Winners name was
engraved. Mr.. Drysdale's son seems
ito have worn the disc and lost 1t

This caught the eye of Mr.. Drysdale's
son, who then applied for 1t as his
property. His notion was that the disc

giou abounded in game, and wild tur-
keys were especially numerous. Never
having bagged one OF these birds,
was keen to go after them, and my
host promised to- take me. We start
ed out on the hunt, and could al
ready see a magnificent gobbler fall
ing to my fire. After walking several
miles my friends remarked that it was
well to rest while, and threw him
self down, under the shade of mes
quite bush. This did not suit me at
all, for was eager to go on, and |
demonstrated with him about losing
valuable time. For answer he rolled
over on the grass and went to sleep
at which was fired with anger and
half notion to go back to the house.
1t was well along in the afternoon be.
fore he aroused from his nap, and
then, with an apologetic smile, Re
said: We won't have to wait long
now. for this is the place the turkeys
come to roost, and all we will have
to do is to hide and shoot them down.
1t was just as he said, and about sun
down there came a superb drove Of
wild turkeys. Unconscious Of danger,
they came almost upon us before we |
let drive at them, with the result that |
four Of the largest were stretched
upon the ground. After that never

Just Discrimination in RAILWAY Rata.

Just Discrimination in Railway Rates
All railroad men qualified to speak
on the subject IN responsible way
are likely to agree with President
Samuel Spencer of the Southern Rail.
way when he says: There Is no d.
vision Of opinion as to the desirability
of stopping all secret or -unjustly dis
ccriminatory, devices and practises of
WHATSOEVER character" II : II
Mr.. Spencer, in speaking Of "un
justly discriminatory" rates and de-
vices, makes a distinction whichJis 1t
once apparent to common sense. There
may be discrimination in freight rates
which is just, reasonable and impera-
lively required by the complex com
mercial and geographical conditions
with which expert rate makers have
to deal. To abolish such open and
honest discrimination might paralyze
the industries of cities, states and
whole sections Of our national terri
tory. ~ y ~ 7 "
This distinction between Just and
unjust DISCRIMINATION is clearly recog-
nized in the conclusions of the Inter
national Railway Congress. published
yesterday: 81 - 81
re Tariffs should be based con commer-
cial principles, taking into account the
special conditions which bear Upon the
commercial value Iof the Gservices Srena
dered. With the reservation that rates
shall be charged without arbitrary dis
crimtna ton toIIadlI shippers alike under
like conditions, the making Of rates
should as far as possible have all the
elasticity necessarily to permit the devel4
opment Of the traffic and to produce the
greatest results to the public and to the
railroads themselves 'gCgGs' u III
The present proposal is, as Mr..
Walker D. Hines of Louisville showed
in his remarkable testimony the other
day before the Senate Committee at
Washington, to crystalline flexible and
Justly discriminatory rates into liked
government rates which cannot be
changed except by the Intervention Of
some government tribunal, and by this
very process to increase "the tempta.
ton to depart from the published rate
and the lawful rate in order to meet
