WASHINGTON LETTER.
From Monitor Correspondent

The Presidents energetic advocacy
of some measure providing for fed
eral control of railway rates promises
to bear fruit, although 1T is unlikely
that such legislation will be enacted
at this session of Congress, and it is
also improbable that the power to fix
rates will be conferred on the Inter
state Commerce Commission. No
one appreciates these facts better
than 1.-THE president, but he explains
that no man ever drove home a nail
with just the necessary amount of
force and no more, and then he pro-
ceeds to strike sledge- hammer blows,
on every member of either house of
Congress who calls at the White
House. The result is that members
OF Congress, as we'll as some of the
leading railway officials, have become
convinced that the time has arrived
when something must be done and
they are putting their heads together
with view to devising satisfactory
Tne Iact is that the problem Is most
complex and a solution is not easy,
II has always been the policy of this
government to preserve intact, SO
far as possible, the three coordinate
branches of the government, the ex-
ecutive, legislative and judicial. The
Supreme Court has held that the de-
termination of what constituted a just
rate was a judicial function, where
as the fixing OF future rate was
legislative function and the Interstate
Commerce Commission is largely an
executive body, acting under the di-
rection of the president. A fairly
perfect law must take cogniz Ance of
these facts and of previous supreme
court decisions or it will result in
nothing but expensive litigation, to
be followed by its nullifcation.
These are few of the legal perplexi-
ties of the problem.
The practical features of the prob
lem are almost equally complex.
Railroad rates vary in different Sec
iions of the country, but so do the
cost of railway construction and
operation. Again, certain railroads
grant certain reductions in rates with
view to establishing special rates
along the line of their road, notably
the commodity rate" Again,
granted for much the same purpose
is the milling in transit rate"
whereby certain roads grant special
rates on raw materials manufactured
at some point on their line and re-
shipped as a finished product. For
these reasons railroad rates seem
bound to vary even in given section
of the country and the commission OR
body which attempts to define what
does and what does not constitute a
fair rate will be confronted by a
knotty task. One point is certain,
however, and that is that good will
come out of the presidents deter
mined pushing of the legislators in
his party and if a prediction can be
made with safety it is that the party
leaders will arrive at some definite
agreement before Congress convene

The biennial report of the Vermont
state cattle commission has just been
made public, and contains some high
ly interesting facts. For ten years
the state has had law designed to
eradicate tuberculosis from the cattle
of Vermont. Two years ago changes
were made in the matter of indem-
nifty, and some quarantine powers
were taken from the commission.
All tests are now made on application
of the owners, and since the work was
first begun more than SO per cent. of
work done has been at the request of
the owners. During the ten years
the law has been in force, the state
has paid about $3.50, 200 for diseased
cattle and expenses attending the
work. More than 125,OOO cattle
have been tested with tuberculin and
over 5000 have been killed. A large
proportion of the herds found healthy
in the first test has been found free
from the disease at the second or
third test. The animals found dis
eased during the past year have been
largely in herds and localities where
tests have not been made before.

THIRTY DELEGATES
To Be Appointed Today
to Parliament at Wash
inqton.

Governor Glenn vii To-day appoint
thirty delegates to represent North
Carolina at the Southern Industrial
Parliament which meets in Washing
ton. y. c., May 23rd. Upon receiving
notice that this State was entitled To
u representative of thirty delegates,
Governor Glenn Immediately respond
ed that he would make the appoint
ments and expressed his approval of
the convention, which means much for
the South.
1t was first contemplated to have
few representative men from the
South assemble in Washington and af-
forwards publish an address upon the
Industrial conditions existing down
here in their varied industr.e5-rail-
road building manufacturing, mining,
numbering commerce and agriculture.
The subject of this parliament is
commercial fellowship, fr1ternal IN
dustrial growth American supremacy.
The parliament was conceived by
number of leading Southern Congress
men, North Cardinals representa-
tives and Senators among the number,
who felt THAT the time had come for
an official announcement, that IN the
South laws We're favorable TO the in
weston, and that public order and pri-
waite rights We're firmly upheld aad
maintained.
IL Is SAID LllaJ heretofore lnSFe has
been q wide misapprehenSi0n on two
subjects, which has done the South @
great and grave injustice. They are
that the sanitary conditions are uns1-
lubrious and that vested rights were
not held as sacred as elsewhere. But
Northern capitalists WHO have invest
ed in southern railways, mining. enter
prises and manufacturing industries
are perfectly satisfied with their in
m
1t is asserted by eminent medical au-
thorit.eS that healthfulness and slni-
tary conditions in the South are NOT
inferior to those in other States. These
facts will reach the popular car by the
acts of the parliament.

A DAIRY INSPECTOR COMEDY OF ERRORS
New Milk Ordinance May
Provide For This
Officer.

The special committee from the
Board of Health are executing the in
spection of the local dairies
with great care and precis-
ion. and facts are being discovered
that will be of great value to those
who have in charge the preparation OF
the new city milk ordinance, which
will be submitted to the new board or
aldermen. Noting definite, it was
stated by a member of the committee,
will be given for publication within
two weeks, but it is learned that they
intend to have in the ordinance pro-
vision for the appointment by the
board of health, of a dairy and mix
inspector. The duties of this offlce
will be to make semi-monthly examl-
nations of milk from every COW FUR
nishing milk used in the city. and to
make personal inspections OF every
dairy supplying milk to the city. To
do all this would take possibly one
week per month, and it is stated that
the salary of the inspector should be
fixed at about $500 or 5000 annually.
There are two ways of milk regula-
ton or inspection which the commit
tee is considering, but new plans al
together may be adopted. One is to
have appointed from the board OF al
III
of disinterested persons, the mayor or
the city to be the chairman, all serV-
ing without compensation. This COM
mission would have the power TO au-
thorize tests for. tuberculosis and bac7
terra and other similar powers, and
would have the power to compel the
dairymen to conduct the operations or
these institutions in the best sanitary
manner If this plan is adopted the
dairyman would be obliged to take out
a dairy license before he would be al
lowed to dispose of his milk in RAJ
eigh The commission would consist
of about five men.
The second way suggested is to have
appointed a similar commission with
the same authority, but it would have
The additional power, when nominated
by the board of aldermen to
elect dairy Inspector. No license
under it's plan would be issued, but
standard would be set, and those ilV-
ing up to it would have a certificate to
that effect, their milk would be en-
titled certified milk" placing 1T SUI
perior in commercial worth to those
not meeting the requirements.
