The 500 Railway Company has just
published another OF those neat little
leaflets for which it has become
famous. The one before US gives an
interesting description Of some of the
scenery on the 500 Pacific between St.
Paul and the western coast, with
several beautiful printed views Of
the prominent mountain peaks anG
other leading scenic features along
the line of the road. Many people
will make the trip to the Portland
exposition this year. These prospec.

Agent, Minneapolis, and ask for q
copy of Primer No. 200, which is the
title Of the leatlet herein referred to.

BR'ER ELLIOTT. of the Steele Re-
publican, doesn't like Belden and
Streeter any better than ever, evi.
IDENTIFY. Yet it might be good idea for
him to. be fair, occasionally, just to
ascertain how it feels to be that way.
He has been on the Missouri Slope
about year now-lOng enough for
the pure ozone-or "Ozone''-of the
New Northwest to clear his liver
Of nalarial microbes and his stomach
Of dyspepsia. Possibly he might make
fair aud unprejudiced statement
just once without being taken sick.
Recently, in his paper he emitted u
snarl because Belden and Streeter
voted for resubmission. So they did,
and 50 would Senator Macdonald have
done had the bill reached the upper
house. What would the editor Of the
Republican have had the delegation
from this district do--vioIate their
instructions on the subject--instruc-
tions prepared and presented TO the
Braddock legislative convention by
Delegate P. J. Lyous and unanimous
ly adopted by that body, Of which
neither Belden nor Streeter was a
member? Again, our esteemed work.
er in the moral vineyard-[Note our
improved diction under the libel law]
l-doesn't take kindly to the amend
nent Of the Shiels ''half-pint law"
for which Belden and Streeter, as
we'll as several prohibitionists in each
house, voted. The old statute caused
some Of the most law-abiding drug
gists in the state to give up the ham
ding Of liquor, even to fill physi,
cian's prescription something ttlxt
even liberal prohibitionists did ,fOt
want. The new law raises the ap4Ount
Of liquor tt,at may be sold in ole day
to any one person from a ha4- 4-pint to
a pint, and reduces the PERCENTAGE
Of signatures necessary to hf obtained
when druggist applies forA a permit.
II the Republicans editor\will read
the amended law he will fiud that its
provisions are still stringent enough
for even such rock-ribbed prohibition
lists as himself and Mr.. Lyons.

doesn't he pat us on the back becaus e
our moral lever was one of the first
among the rural thunderers to advo-
cate a primary law? Why doesn't he
say, "Well done, thou good and faith
full servant" when he considers that
we were among those who hung out
for Senate Bill Ss until it drew
its last breath, and this, too, when
some Of the best friends we have were
strongly opposed to it, and in the ab-
sence Of any instruction on the mat

the district we represented? Why
doesn't Brother Winstip or his dep

most profound respect, and whom
we would be pleased to see on the
soldiers home board for life, IL, like
other appolntees, he should be reap

we given good word by the Herald
for taking prominent part in the
fight against the measure-supposed
to have been desired by "the ma
chine"-to raise the salary OF district
judges from 90, 500 to s4,5OO a year,
getting around the constitutional
inhibition Of increasing salaries dur.
ing the current term by presenting the
judges Thousand year for TEX
penses," thus giving away $4,000
each term OF four years; and this, also,
with our judges getting as much
salary as those Of Minnesota, and
more than those of South Dakota,
and with not enough money in sight
to properly care for our educational
institutions? Why not chuck us un-

A Pu5ilc-Sp,r;ted Burg.

Did you ever think. gentle reader,
that in some ways this little town OF
Linton Is remarkable? Has it ever
occurred to you that there are not
many places with population Of be-
tween four and five hundred that are
as public-spirited as the burg where
in we reside? First, a new town was
built in the valley; then the railroad
came along, just far enough away to
make US move our buildings. That
moving business cost a good bit Of
money. More than three years ago
brass band was organized here. Usu-
ally, band in village the size that
Linton was at that time doesn't live
to green old age, but turns It's toes
10 the blue vault Of heaven-how's
that for langwidg?--.ls soon us the
problem Of permanent financing forces
itself to the front for serious consid-
Grafton. But nothing Of this nature
has happened with our band. 1t gets
better as 1t grows older. Within it
has been formed an orchestra that is
among the best In the state. Instead
Of our people getting tired Of the band
as the years 10 by, they grow prouder
Of 1t each season. For nearly year
1t has had professional leader in
the person Of Prof. Clint. o. Smith.
well known throughout the state as
an expert band-lnaster. 1t has come
to be almost necessity to the town,
and the citizens could hardly get
along without it. Then, too, In the
raising Of money for any public pur-
pose, 1t would be hard to find q town
Of equal size that would beat Linton.
A year aRolast summer it was thought
best to give a FOurth-of.July celebra-
tion. In u little while nearly $500
vas raised with which to make the
event success. A town hall was
needed. Thereupon hustling citizen
got move Oh himself and soon $1,000
were subscribed for the hall. A base
ball team was wanted. Without fuss
or feathers the ladies got up u basket
social and more than 800 were raised.
These are but few instances Of many
showing public spirit on the part Of the
people of Linton town; but they de.
note that 1t must have q prosper.
Gus lot Of inhabitants and of farmers
tributary to 1t.

plays on Old Testament subjects came up
for discussion few months ago, took
very decided attitude in opposition to the
Jewish memorialists. Mr.. Lieberman is the
head of large business interest.
On the 18th of July last, three sisters,
Thekla, Krimhilde and Margarete Egerer, of
Prague, were bathing in the river Beryun,
when a Czech lawyer, DR.. Eugen Seber,
without any reason whatever, rOwed toward
them and threatening them with an oar,
cried out: Get you gone, Hebrews; you are
soiling the water!" The girls brought an
action against the lawyer at the District
Court of Konigsaal near Prague. The mag
istrate. after examining Herr Egerer, brother
of the plaintiffs, and the only witness OF
the scene, whom, however, he did not put
on oath, declined to question the sisters on
the ground that they were not sufficiently
trustworthy Needless to say, the Judge ac-
quilted the accused. To justify his decision,
he argued that the statement of Herr Egerer,
as brother of the plaintiffs, was not to be
believed, that there was no cOrroborative evil
dence, and that, moreover, the legal require
ment of publicity was lacking in this case,
because the river Beryun, near DObrichowitZ.
could not be looked upon as public place."
Fortunately, the High Court Of Prague, to
which the sisters eventually appealed,
quashed the judgment of the District Court,
and ordered the latter to have the case re-
heard before another magistrate. On the
4th ult the case again heard and this
time the Czech lawyer was sentenced to five
days imprisonment with costs

ADJUST UNFAIR RATES
Essential That Fower Be Conferred to
Substitute a Reasonable Rate for
Any That Are Found to Be
Unreasonable.

Washington Oct. 6--''President RoosA
Welt is dead in earnest on the subjec
of railroad rate legislation, and is JUST
as determined as ever that legislativet
regulations shall be enacted looking toi
the federal supervision of the freight
rates situation.' !
This statement was made today by,
Representative Townsend. of Michigan,
one of the authors of the socalled Esch-'
Townsend railroad rate bill, after a,
most interesting and important confer.
ence held today at the White House.
Townsend did not have opportunity to-
go fully into the subject with the presi-
dent Today, but the president requested
him to call again tomorrow.
II have no authority to represent the!
presidents views as to railroad rates.;
said Townsend. but l can say he en-,
teftalnS now the same views in prin-,
ciple as he expressed In his messaget
last December.
What President Believes.
He believes thai to either the inter-
state commerce commission, or to some.
other body. ought to be given the au-
tholltN to adjust rates found to be UNI
reasonable. The cru of the whole mat
ter is not that the commission should
fix rates. but that it should have power
to substitute a reasonable rate for one.
found on investigation to be unjust.
without such authority evils COM
planned of could not be reached. Some
changes may be made in the Esch-
Townsend measure, but they will be for
the purpose of making the bill clearer
on certain points. 1t is intended. of
course. to include in regulations, pri-
waite cars. refrigerator cars and ter
mtnal charges. We thought they We're
covered by our measure. but in order
tiat there will be no question about.
them they Will be included in the bill
in II definite way.
One thing is quite certain, there will
be no narrowing of the scope of the
bil-no modification of the principles
involved. The interest of both the ship
per and railroads are to be subserved."
Townsend said ii was expected the
senate committee OH interstate COM
merce would prepare and report a
measure to regulate railroad freight
rates. While he did not have a definite;
IDEA rs to The scope of the senate meas
ure he regarded it as doubtful wheth-,
CT members of the senate committee,
would agree with Senator Foraker that
the proposition involved only a ques-
ton of methods.
