poLLlvER's RAILROAD BILL
Authorizes Interstate Commerce Com-
mission to Fix Maximum Rate
A to5


mission to Fix Maximum Rate
BY Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, Dec. Ex-senator
Dollver today introduced a bill de-
signed to simplify the railroad regu-
lating measure proposed by the inter-
state commerce commission. 1t author
ICES the commission to fix and enforce
maximum and reasonable rate, to go
into effect thirty days after notice.
The court procedure of the commits
sion's bill Is eliminated and railroads
are left free to follow their constitu-
tional remedies in the courts. The
commission is increased to seven mem
bers at n salary of $4,000 each. 1t had
not been the intention of the senate to
Introduce the measure until after the
holidays. but it was agreed at the con-
ference at the White House last night
that it would be more effective to have
the measure referred to the senate
committee on interstate commerce inn
mediately.
In a statement Senator Dolliver says:
1.-The bill which have introduced is
intended to correct some of the abuses
which still exist in the matter of rail-
road rates. 1t is not drawn in spirit
of hostility to the railroad systems of
the country, but in the interest of har-
mony and good will between the rail-
ways and their patrons. 1t provides
public tribunal impartial in its atti-
tude before the shipper may present
his complaint on an existing rate and
the carrier his defense of the rate, so
that the controversy arising out of
disagreement between the two may
not be left without an effective solu-
ton.
THE bill avoids comforting upon the
commission a dispensing power or any
authority to disturb commercial con-
ditions where separate markets are
involved or competitive ports or indie.
pendent railroad systems. The jurisdic-
tion is confined to the carrier COM
plained of and in the case of a joint
rate to the carriers shipping therein.
The power is given in such a case to
the commission to investigate the sub
ject fully, hearing all parties, and in
case the rate complained of or any
regulation affecting it is found to be
in violation of the interstate commerce
act, TO correct 1t by an order requir-
ing the carrier to fix its rates with ref
erence to a reasonable maximum pre-
scribed by the commission.
THE bill proceeds upon the theory
that such an order of the commission
should go into effect at the end of
thirty days unless in the meantime it
Is modified by a supplemental order
of the commission or suspended or
vacated by order CT decree of the cir
cult court of the United States exercis-
ing a jurisdiction in equity which will
not be limited or in any way abridged
by an act of congress If such an or
der of the commission is found by the
court to be unfair to the carrier or
unjust to the public we have the au-
thority of the supreme court for say
ing that it is the duty of the supreme
court to vacate it."

In the attack against Jews and consti-

ip the monastery on Sept. If and IL
last In very large quantities. More
over, the publication bore beneath the

To this exposure of the literary cam

out from the holy precincts of one Of

and more official exposure made by
M less than Count Heiden, sent to
Kieff by Count Witte to investigate
the origin of the Black massacres

discovering the secret organization

IN selling It's correspondence and docu-

According to these, the attack was

sUPERSEDING WITTE
RevoIutionists' Branch in Boston
Hears From Russia
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press
BOSTON, Dec. ia communication
to Russian revolutionist branches in
Boston has been received by mail from
Russia. The document is issued by the
authority of the League of Leagues. In
part 1t reads as follows:
"Our suspicious of an inner and Sc
cret government superseding that of
Count Witte has been confirmed. Witte
is being kept in place by the czar so as
to allay suspicious of other European
powers and to endeavor to blind the
public to the actual conditions exist
ing in the palace. A circumstance has
just happened to prove the truth of
our assertions. The governor of Odes-
sa (Neidgard), who organized the mas
sacres in that city and province, was
dismissed by Witte for the hand he
took in the work. He has now been
appointed governor of Mini Novgorod.
Count Witte, on being asked how
he could give new and even greater
and higher appointment TO such a no.
torious villain, replied that the ap-
pointment was made not only without
his consent, but even without his
knowledge.
According to our views. the cars
abdicat alton is the only inevitable and
desirable result OF the abyss to which
he himSelf has brought the country.
But what then? One shudders at the
horrors of the destruction to life and
property. which is already going on In
Russia under the semblanCe of au-
thority still claimed by the czar. What
will happen when the semblance dis
appears and before any new authority
Is established to hold it's sway over
the heterogeneous nation forming the
present empire of Russia God only
knows"
The communication relates that In
several of the provinces the czar's
manifesto of emancipation was with
held by order of the secret government
Had the manifesto been made public
the letter says, wholesale massacres
would have been prevented. The letter
gives what Is said TO be a concrete
instance of plot hatched to kill cer-
tain classes OF people at Kieff. II says;
Perhaps the most striking proof OF
a preconcerted plan by the authorities
to eXterminate all constitutional ele-
nients Is afforded by the massacres al
Kieff, which were as horrible in their
details as those at Odessa. In the is
sue OF the Kieff daily paper, Kieffsk
Otogolskie, dated November 16, Pro
fessor " Tichigovolcie published ar
open letter TO the abbot of the famous
Local Lavaraeor monastery accusing

When up at Raburn Gap last week
we observed work going on upon the
railroad. The train ran to Raburn
Gap on the day Of the school meeting,

to within one-fourth mile Of the new

We understand that Statesville pro-
poses building a railroad into North
Iredel. a distance perhaps of twenty
miles. Let us hope this is true. That
will put the railroad within twenty
miles or less of Wilkesboro. 1t would
be an easy grade to come across the
line and proceed up Hunting Creek to
this place, and it will come through a
