The Rate Bill.

The st. Paul Dispatch points.out the
weakness of the rate bill now before
congress, by sizing up the points made
made by LaFollette in his speech on
that subject. A summary of defects
is given as follows:
Briefly stated, as space compels, he
finds the bill inadequate in these particu-
lars: The supreme court having decid-
ed that railways are entitled to earn a
Just compensation on their fair value,
the essential thing is to determine that
fair value and provide for it in the law
The bill is silent on this point. The
provision granting power to the COM
mission is insufficient in it's grant. 1t
makes no provision granting the COM
mission authority to consider the rela-
tions of rates with respect to specific
complaints. 1t is silent upon the vital
question of controlling the classification
of merchandise under which power the
commission reports that ''many ad-
vances have been made in rates by
changes in classifcations. The bill
should permit fixing of minimum rate.
Tt requires a maximum rate to be fixed.
Power to decide what are 'dissimliar
conditions" that permit determinations,
should be given to the commission and
not left to the railroads. It does not
require railways, on hearings before the
commission, to present their entire case
a trick by which they secured the bulk
of their reversals Of orders. The law
carries no adequate penalty; imprison-
noent should be restored. It should give
mower to compel installment of block
systems and other safety devices. 1t
should abolish the free pass. It should
include express companies, those para
sites of the system, and it should not
contain the word "justly remunerative"
in defining rates.
''But let no man be misled," he said
in concluding this summary of omis-
sions, ''by any expectation that any half
way measure will serve even the end of
political expediency. The public will not
accept from it's servants any compromise
of the full discharge of their official OBJ
legations. 1t experienced one great dis
appointment in railway legislation that
failed to enact that which was demanded
by the conditions and that which it was
supposed to enact. It will not require
another ten years to discover the de-
ficiencies in this legislation. They will
be recognized at once.
The free-alcohol bill went to the SEN
ate committee on finance. Aldrich is its
chairman. Aldrich's son-in-laW is John
D. Rockefeller, Jr. Free alcohol will
compete with Standard OILS gasoline
as a motor. The greatly increased de-
mand for gasoline has lifted its price
and added to the profits and increased
the dividends. Aldrich says the bill is
a every important measure" and should
Sehave the fullest consideration. That
means he will hold the bill in committee
as long as possible; until adjournment
if he dare to.-Dispatch.

TRIES TO ENTER ROOM
X Negro Attempts On. Attack on Young
Ladies Near Ennis.

Officers in this city today received
information 10 the effect that on last
Friday night an attempt was made
by q negro to commit criminal as
sault a few miles west of Ennis. Ac-
cording to reports reaching here an
unknown negro went to the home of
Tom Stovall, a farmer, and pulled
the screen out of the back door. Mr.
Stovall's two daughters heard the
noise and went to the kitchen to make
an investigation. When the negro
saw the young ladies he started to-
ward them in a threatening manner.
They ran screaming to the front part
of the house and the negro disap-
peared Ennis officers were at once
notified of the negro's attempted at
tack on the young ladies. They went
Immediately to the home of Mr., Sto-
vail and tracked the negro some dis
tance from the house when his trail
was lost No arrest has yet been
made.

son was finally released from his
predicament. The prisoner is man
of unusual girth and badly given to
l'stuttering. During the efforts TO re-
lease him he kept the crowd in good
humor by telling suffering jokes and
making suggestions. The Temple city
Jail is in bad repute with the under

sncceeded in nearly incinerating him

to repair the damage caused by the
latest assault.

POLLING 4 LIGHT VOTE

General Apathy lis in control in
Ellis comfy today and from present
indications the vote will be exceed
iugiv light The favorable weather
for gathering cotton has kept the
farmers in the field and at ! o'clock
This afternoon only a few country
people had voted in WaNahachie.
Taking the vote in Waxahachic as
a basis the total vote in the county
will be less than one-half the mum
ber of votes cast In the primary elee-
gion July IS At the hour mentioned
only 295 ballots had been deposited
by voters in the four boxes in this
city. They were represented as fol
lows.
West Waxahachie, 100, North
Waxahachie, 1tC; East Waxahachie
IS: South Waxahachie, 81
When this list was secured only
mo negroes had voted. One of these
was in North Waxahachie and the
other in South Waxahachie This
would indicate that the colored peo.
pie have not only deserted the Lyon
ticket, but have failed to come TO the
support OF DR. Acheson.
In the primary election 6,o24 votes
were cast OF this number Waxa
hachie gave LIE and Ennis 765. Il
the proportionate falling off in the
vote at Ennis and at the other boxes
in the county is as great as it will b'
in Waxahachie the county Will lost
at least two votes in the district con
ventions In the last conventions
the county had II votes, but unless
the farmers go to the polls this after
noon the number will be reduced t
10. In order to hold the place oc
cupied for the past two years it vii
be necessary for Col. Campbell to re
ceive a total of 5000 votes in tn
county but from the interest shaw
in the forenoon this is hardly pos
sible. In fact, ii is doubtful if he re
ceives as many as 5000 votes.
The polls will close at Z o'cloc]
this evening.
