THE SENATE RATE BILL.

That the rate bill will be far more
drastic when it leaves the senate than
when it was received is evident.
Speaking on this point the Philadel-
phia Item says:
If the senate is making slow prog
ress with the railroad rate bill, it
is certainly making it very binding.
The latest amendment is one to make
it both fine and imprisonment for rail-
road officials to allow rebates. This
amendment making the penalty I'M
prisonment not exceeding two years
and fine not exceeding $4,000 or
both. was carried 70 to 2. With these
amendments may be coupled the
amendments prohibiting railroads from
holding mines and prohibiting the is
suing of passes. In addition to these,
the senate has crippled and rendered
virtually useless the right of the rail-
roads to get stay of proceedings.
When it finally passes the senate
the railroad rate bill will be much
more drastic than it was when it
reached that body from the house. The
imprisonment penalty is particularly
severe and will be much more effec-
tive in breaking up the granting of
rebates than mere fine would. The
latter railroad officials might risk, as
the corporation would be made to pay
it. But the prospect of Imprisonment
is something no official will care to
face.

THE KEYS OF THE CITY.

The Norwegians are in possession
Oh tne city today. They have come
from every part of the state to parti-
cipate in the celebration which COM
memorates the birthday of their lib
erty. Patriotism is the theme Of every
grafton and every song.
Never has the keys of the CITY been
delivered to worthier hands. The
Norwegians have largely built the
northwest. The great wheat empire
OF America is the work of their hands.
The hardy and daring sons of yik-
ing kings have not feared to cross the
ocean and convert the desert into a
paradise of waving gold. They have
been in the front ranks of those who
have made North Dakota great. They
have planted on our soil the seeds of
industry, energy and thrift. and the
world knows the result
But they have done more. They
have brought with them the undying
principles Of patriotism and love of
liberty that have made Norway con-
spicuous among Nthe nations of the
earth.
Today they are mingling this love

covered many things concerning the
witnesses during the months that they
have been giving them an opportunity
to make good the insinuations.
1t learned that the witnesses who
would have them believe their state
ments without the facts We're either
prejudiced or discredited. The lead
ers We're smarting under some dis
appointed personal ambition or the
refusal of the party to intrust them
with power lest it be betrayed.
The value of their charges were de-
termned in the same manner jury
would determine the credibility of
witness in court. Was he prompted
by spite or enmity? Was he willing
to disclose the whole truth? Was he
stating facts or his personal preju-
dces? Is he influenced by personal
ambitions? The inevitable answer to
these questions showed that those
who had gone up and down the land
making the insinuations were prompt
ed by selfish motives and disappoint-
ed ambitions. That they were UNI
worthy to follow as leaders and I'M
reliable as witnesses was the newt
able conclusion.
The verdict is we'll reflected in the
excerpts mentioned. These papers
are Il careful reflection of the senti-
ment of their communities. They are
edited by men of intelligence and
character, and their statements cir
culate among the people who are sit
ting in judgment on the contention of
the disruptionists. If they were not
true, these editors would be compelled
to retract them because of the popu-
lar demand.
The truth is that when the charges
could not be substantiated the repub-
licans who had been ready to follow
the rebel leaders, if the truth were
as they insinuated, became disguised
with the hypocrisy of the matter and
have turneed from the scheme with
adherence.
Nothing but the frantic efforts of
the leaders to save sinking ship is
now visible The republicans have
nobly refused to assist in the disrup-
ton of the party and the turning of
state and national affairs over to the
democratic party. They positively re-
fused to be led into the democratic
party merely to give a few disappoint-
ed men an opportunity to secure posi-
tions which they have not been able
to secure from the voters of the re-
publican party.

PARENT AND TEACHER.

Professor Burnett, principal of the
East Grand Forks public schools, in
recent address to a gathering of
school patrons, called attention to the
need of cooperation between the par
ent and teacher if the best results
were to be obtained in the education
of the child
The topic would be more timely at
the opening than at the closing of the
public school term, but its importance
time even.
The subject is one of vital interest
to every child who is in the care of
the public schools.
That the nature of the child must
be largely considered in it's teachings
is now so we'll admitted as to need
no argument In the school he is by
the very nature of things brought
under the direction of different
teacher each year. His disposition
and peculiarities must be learned, and
while the teacher is doing the fatal
estrangement is often made which
means mental war between the two
destructive. to the advancement of the
pupil, If it does not finally estrange
him from the school.
The intelligent parent should know
the character of his child as we'll as
its weaknesses. If he would take the
trouble to inform the teacher of these
and work in harmony to produce a
strong and lovable character there
would be fewer children playing tru-
ant and fewer cases for the reform
schools and penal institutions.
The principle involved is therefore
more than the harmony in school
work. Dislike for teachers means dis
like for schools; and dislike for
schools means liking for youthful
depravity, which later becomes adult
depravity and criminality.
Even the best child disposition by
nature can be ruined by the animosi-
ties which often develop in the
school room before the teacher has
found the key to the soul which will
unlock its richest storehouses. Once
the dislike of school and discipline
comes to be hated, the mental and to
a large extent the moral development
of the child is hindered.
A closer and better relation between
the parent and the one who stands in
the place of the parent, and con-
sequent harmony in the work which
is done for the development of the
child will mean better men and women
in the next generation.

.GARF|E[D'S REPORT
TO CONGRESS
BY PRES.
Accompanied by Message At
tention Called to Com
ment of Oil Company
and Roads.
Associated Press to The Evening Time,

Annotated Press to The Evening Times.
Washington, D. c., May 17-Presi-
dent Roosevelt today transmitted 10
congress a complete report of James
r. Garfield, commissioner of corpora
tions of the investigation which he
made int the operations of the alleged
oil trust. A full synopsis of report,
accompanied by a message from the
president dealing with the facts de-
livered by the inquiry, was sent to
congress on Friday, the fourth instant.
Comments on the message and re-
port were made by officials of the
Standard Oil company and by officials
of tthe several systems of railroad. In
submitting to the president the report
of his inquiry, commissioner GARFIELD
wrote a letter to him inviting his at
tention to some of the published COM
ments on the oil report attributed to
certain railway officials and repre-
sentatives of the oil trust. That let
ter was made public today by direc-
ton of the president, although it was
not sent to congress with Garfield's
report. 1t is peculiarly interesting,
because 1t contains Commissioner Gar
fields answer by directing attention
to certain parts of his complete re-
port to comments which have been
made.
