racy from the east to the west and
north to south Is again to he an ac-
complished fact. The people Of Kan
sas said: He sends this slogan
across the Mississippi valley and over
the Appalachian mountains to New
England: We are for free raw ma
terial, and we are willing to give to
the laborer of the east free hides In
competition with our hides. because
the beef trust robs us even Of the hair,
and then sells the balance to the east

have misreprrsented us long enough.
We are In favor of the old-fashioned
doctrine az enunciated by samuel j..

Cleveland Of a tariff for revenue only.

CAPITAL QUESTION
IN STATEHOOD BILL
nyOpponentS toGuthrie's
Remaining Chief City
Until 1915.

The Statehood conferees have lately
been subjected to much pressure and
some criticism from Oklahoma and In
dian Territory on the ground of their
alleged failure to keep an agreement
made early in the consideration OF the
measure concerning the location Of the
capital Of the new State. This capital
question is in Oklahoma, as always in
a new State. a most bitterly contested
one Guthrie has It now, and is, of
course, anxious to hold it,
The opponents of Guthrie insist that
that -9wn has no chance to hold the
capital They demanded an early de-
elsion OF the capital question. and their
claim IS that they were positively prom
ised that the bill should fix a date not
later than 1910, when the new State
might vote on this question. But now
the conterees have substituted 1915 and
there is vigorous denunciation OF this ac-
ton. It is declared to be q f1agraa,
breach Of faith. and the charge that nm
due pressure has been used by powerfu1

CONGRESS CLOSING
BUSINESS OF YEAR
Program to Adjourn Middle
Of June.
IMPORTANT BILLS SLATED
Morgan TO Make Long Speech on Canal
Type Question-Burton Matter to
Be Settled-Rate Bill Up.

Many OF the important questions that
have been pending in Congress are ex-
pected TO reach their elimination next
week, and, unless there are undue de-
lays, the program of the leaders to
bring the session 70 a close about the
18th or 10Th instant will probably be
carried out
The reports OF the conference commit
tees on the railroad rate bill and on the
Statehood measure are likely TO be
made early in the week, and they will
probably provoke some discussion. There
will be further debate on the resoIu-
ton requiring that the materials for
the Panama Canal be bought in the
United States unless the prices are ex-
tortionate and unreasonable IN comparf-
son with foreign bids. The bin declar-
ing in favor Of the construction Of a
sea-level canal instead OF one with locks
at Panama viii be pressed 10 a vote II
possible during the week
Senator Morgan to Speak.
Senator Morgan has a IonS speech that
he desires to deliver. and which will
probably occupy the better part OF two
days, and Senator'S Knox and Honki7s
Will support the lock type. The lead
ers hope TO pass the bill about Thurs
day.
Unless Joseph Ralph Burton. the con-
victed Kansas Senator. has IN the mean
time resigned. the Senate Committee
on Privileges and Elections viii on
Tuesday report a resolution expeTiing
him from the Senate. AS an indication
that the committee has already made
up its mind as 70 what it intends 10
do. II is perhaps significant that the
special session Tuesday is called 20 meet
at n.So, only a half hour before the
meeting Of the Senate That Will AFFORD

question OF the highest privilege. Il
will probably be reported Immediately
20 the Senate and adopted forthwith.

FINE OF 100000
ON REBATE ROADS
Administration to Make
Effective Example.
GARFIELD REPORT READY
Against One Railroad Company Alone
Rebates in NIUE Than 1000 Cases
Can Be Proven.

The Administration is taking steps to
administer an effective lesson TO the
railroads, one that will convince them
Of the impropriety and danger of re-
batting and discrimination in charges
1t is the opinion that this practice will
be stopped just as soon as the roads
are made 10 understand that Il Is too
expensive. There is law enough to i'm
pose ruinous penalties on the guilty
companies. and the President and De-
partment of Justice propose TO enforce
it
million-dollar exhibit of the effec-
uveness Of the rebate law is being plan
ned for the benefit Of the country. It
Will be made with some of the roads
as victims that have been systematical-
~ discriminating in favor Of the Stand
ard OIL Company. The plan is to make
tnese determinations cost three or four
roads a million each. BY the time such
a penalty is imposed the Interstate
Commerce Commission and the Depart
ment of Justice calculate. other roads
viii be ready to quit the practice.
Garfield Report Ready.
The Garfield report OF Standard oil
and its methods will go to the Depart
ment Of Justice in few days. and with
it will be an immense accumulation of
documentary evidence, including bills Of
lading. etc Against one road alone 1000
cases Of rebating can be proved by
documents. it is said. How severe the
penalty might be made for such a case
is suggested by the fact that the Bur
lington was fined $50. 900 recently on ac-
count Of shipments aggregating six car
loads, on which rebates had been grant
ed.
The big cases now proposed will soon
be started in Chicago. St Louis. and
New York The best evidence is said to
be that concerning shipments from
Whiting, Ind, to st. Louis for the Wat
ers-Pierce company, a subsidiary cor
poration recently proved TO be owned
by the Standard The Burlington, the
Alton, and the Chicago and Eastern
Illinois were involved in these shin
ments, which continue over a period of
ten years.
Action to Begin at Once.
a series of rebate prosecutions is to
be opened up now, without Waiting for
the imprisonment penalties OF the rate
law TO take effect
There is much discussion of the effect
abolition Of rebates would have Rail
road men say it would inJure the busI-
ness Of many great cities The great
distributing points generally get large
rebates II was testified at Kansas Citv
that almost everybody there got heavy
rebates This gives a town like Kan
sas City huge advantage over minor
places in its territory. Honest enforce
ment Of tariff rates would thus give the
small towns a better chance Of getting
their share of the business, and as the
smaller trade eenters are coming to real
lie this their interest in behalf of en-
forced fairness is increasing.
