A FELLOW FEELING.
Why She Felt Lenient Toward the
Drunkard,

A great deal depends on the point OF

led, in very peculiar way, to revise
her somewhat harsh judgment Of the
poor devil who cannot resist his cups
and she is now the more charitable.
She writes:

Two Of the most important bills of
the session were considered Thurs
day. The primary election measure
governing all officers state, county
and district, and including recommen-
dations for United States senator,
passed the senate with only four
votes in opposition. The bill was IA
vorably reported by the committee
and went to third reading after one
days consideration.
The bill has gone to the house for
consideration and will be acted upon
next week.
The capitol bill, providing for the
reconstruction and final completion
of the state capitol building and the
appointment of commission, passed
the house by vote of u to II. This
bill makes available from 100000 to
100000 for the work of completing
the capitol. A number of speeches
were made to the house in favor of
the bill, one of the best being by Re-
preventative Casey of Grafton, the
lone Democrat of the house, who took
decided stand for the measure. The
passage of this bill marks the frui-
ton of the final efforts of friends Of
Bismarck and the slope to put an end
| to capitol removal talk and to begin
upon the erection of the permanent
| capitol building.
A number of other measures were
considered in the two houses. The
assembly will adjourn tomorrow until
the middle of the coming week. Dur
ing the recess members Of the ap-
preparations committee will visit the
state institutions.

TAYLOR is AFTER FACTS
Proposes to Use Them in Fight for
Better Grain Rates.

Carr W. Taylor, attorney for the
state board of railroad commissioners,
has written letters to nearly all the
county clerks in the state, asking them
to assist him in getting evidence to
prove his grain rate case against the
railroad companies. He requests that
all the county clerks send in to him
information on the following points
prior to October 10:
1. The lowest rate ever charged on
grain from the principal stations in his
county to Kansas City.
2. If lower than the rate now in
effect, how long was such lower rate in
effect?
3. If the rate has been lower. was
there just cause for the increase of the
rate2
think your county is entitled to re-
ceive from present rates? Give rea-
sons.
5. Give any other information
which might be useful in the prose-
cution of the suit.
Mr.. Taylor, in his letter to the coun-
ty clerks, sets forth the substance of
the petition which he has fled, and
tells what the present rates are out
side of the state as compared with
Kansas rates.
This plan of asking the assistance of
the public officials of the various towns
and counties of the state is not a new
one with Mr.. Taylor. When he was
he sent out hundreds of letters asking
information in a similar way to his
grain rate campaign. In response to
these letters ne obtained a vast amount
of information of great Importance. He
was at work classifying this coal rate
information, when the railroads decid-
ed that it was no use to make a, fight.
They notified the board of their desire
to put in a new schedule of coal rates.
It is possible that in the readjust-
ment of the grain rates the railroads
will come to a similar conclusion. if

WA. WHITES LECTURE
Discusses 'sThe Golden Rule to a
Colorado Springs Audience.

Colorado Springs, Oct. Ga delight
eul audience heard William Allen
White, the distinguished literateur and
journalist, lecture before the Mems
league at the First Presbyterian church
on 1.-The Golden Rule
Mr. White spoke of the true philOs-
ophy of Christianity and of its growth
in the world from the dark ages to the
present time. He said in part.
1.-The laws of the Romans gave more
power to the mobiles than liberty to the
people. The Greek philosophy, cold
and beautiful though it was, had in it
no germ of life. For the love of beau
ty and the principle of hber-
ty are only good as they lead to right
relationship between men. All systems
Of the distribution of wealth will be
at fault until virtue shall prompt the
idea of the system. Jealousy and greed
will quarrel but they will not solve the
problems that confront our govern
ment today. When man loves his
neighbor as himself, all our social
problems will be satisfactorily solved.
From all the PHILOSOPHERS there com IS
but one true voice. the golden rule, the
law of life, the keystone of our civic
law"
After the lecture George Gardner
asked all who approached the lee
ture and who wished to thank the
speaker to rise. The audience rose in

May KICK IT over
Governor HOeh Hasn't Approved
Freight Rate Report.
Says He Hasn't Had Time to
Examine It.

Governor Hoch is still undecided
whether or not he will approve the re-
port on freight rates which has been
prepared by the board of railroad COM
missioners under instructions of the
Stone resolution. The report does not
comply strictly with the terms of the
resolution, and the results are mater
tally different from what they would
be had the state of Colorado not been
included in the averages.
The reliability of the report has also
been questioned on the ground that all
the figures on rates were furnished
and made up in the freight tariff Of
hces of the various railroads, and have
not been fully checked over to prove
their accuracy and equity.
Governor Hoch says: AS soon as I
get time, I shall go through this re-
port, and decide what I Will do about
it. So far I have not had time to look
into the proposition. I do not expect
to make a complete examination of all
the points covered by the report, but
think it will not take so very long to
investigate the points about which
some question has been raised"
1t is not required by the resolution
that the governor shall accept or re-
ject the. report He simply has to ac-
cept what the board of railroad COM
miSSiOnerS care to submit to him, but
the resolution goes on to say: -.
and the governor shall transmit the
report to the next legislature, with
such recommendations as he mag de-
sire to make"
That is the time when Governor
Hoch viii be able to get in his work.
If he finds that the report is mac
curate or has been spiked" for the
purpose of showing a certain condition
to exist, he has the authority to tell
the legislature about it, and indicate
what value should be placed upon the
reQort.
Robert Stone, the author of the res
olution, is at work looking up the ques-
tionable features of the report, and his
findings will no doubt carry much
weight with the governor in deciding
what recommendations will be made to
the legislature.
