although the Department Of Justice has
recently declared that the sugar trust and
several railroads are still engaging in the
practice, and the department is going af-
ter them. The Elkins law, however, is
an important feature of this consecutive
plan of regulation of corporations.
The rate bill in some respects 10 the
most radical example of governmental
control of business and industrial affairs
ever attempted in this country. The most
important provision of the bill is the au-
thority given the Interstate Commerce
Commission to declare that a rate fixed
by a railroad is not just and reasonable,
and TO state in terms what is just and
reasonable rate. That rate is to stand
and be enforced unless it is enjoined,
suspended or set aside by the court. The
railroad company will have TO go into
court and spend its money to contest the
rate, the government defending in behalf
of the shipper, the latter not putting up
cent. The railroads are content that
they have the fullest right of appeal to the
courts. That they have insisted upon all
the time, and they finally secured it, many
of the ablest men in the Senate holding
that it could not and should not be with
held.
The authority of the Interstate Com
merce Commission is broadened TO cover
pipe lines, express companies, switches,
terminals, storage facilities, icing charges
and all the side issues" of railway trans
portation which in the past have lent
themselves to determinations again
small shippers in favor of great corpora
tons. These special privileges made most
of the trouble, and under the old laws
the commission could not reach them.
The commission can In the future compel
railroads to connect with short private
lines and give facilities to shippers off
the main line. There is also regulation
of through freight routes over connecting
but different lines. This will remove an
other source of discrimination. The pro-
vision prohibiting after May 1, 1908, rail-
roads from owning coal, lumber or other
properties will give private owners of
mines equal transportation facilities.
These are the main, broad features of the
prospective new law that interest the gen.
eral public.

The idea of teaching children to read
phrase by phrase, or sentence by sentence
at the outset, instead of the old-fashion-
cd alphabet method or the present word
system, is advanced by Director De Croly
of the Brussels institute of special in
struction. according to a translation for
the Literary Digest. He argues that we
should first give the child complete idea
comprised in a phrase or sentence. He
says that in the course of natural devel
opment a child often uses phrase before
the words composing it. Even when the
child uses a single word it often has the
force of statement. and it is said that he
will decompose words and phrases of his
own accord at the proper time.

CURLING THE CORPORATIONS.
How the Railway Rate Bill supple
ments Previous Legislation.


The passage of the railway rate bill
puts the capstone upon structure OF
laws designed to check corporate ruth
lessness. The first of tile series of bills
with this end in view was the interstate
commerce law. enacted in 1887. 1t was
at best feeble measure because it was
shorn of its effect in large part by design
ing men acting ia the interest of corpora
tions. The commission was given the
power to declare but not the authority TO
enforce its full decree. The commission
could upset a rate fixed by a railroad but
could not supply another. The commits
sion was fiouted openly by the railroads,
defied in the courts and its decisions were
often upset. Yet all the time it was do
ing good work for the people and was
calling attention to evils that existed and
that could be cured by adequate legisla
ton.
The next great enactment in the same
line was the Sherman antitrust law of
1890. For a long time it remained a
dead letter, practically, on the statute
books. The corporations laughed at il.
Gigantic trusts were formed and carried
on their operations openly and boldly.
The people complained from time to time,
but the trusts paid no attention to their
mutterings and went gayly along with the
big game. Finally, the boldest stroke of
all was attempted. The great Northern
Securities merger was foated. 1t had for
object the controlling by two or three
men of the entire system of railway trans
portation between the Mississippi river
and the Pacific coast from the Canadian
border TO the Gulf. About that time At
torney General Knox, in the Department
of Justice, tumbled over the revised stat
utes and picked out the Sherman act, un-
der authority of which he went after that
merger, hammer and tongs. The Supreme
Court upheld his contention and demol-
ished the merger. Since then other trusts
have been attacked and to-day half doz-
en- Of the great combinations are on the
rack.
The next legislative act in the same
direction was the Elkins anti-rate law of
1903. The Elkins act is supposed to have
corrected many of the evils of rebating,

Bridal Pair Escape Unhurt, but
Twenty Persons Are Killed and
Nearly 100 wounded-Crime IL
Laid 10 Anarchists.

King Alfonso of Spain and his bride,
Queen Victoria, escaped a horrible
death from the explosion of an an
archist bomb at the steps of their PAL
ace in Madrid Thursday afternoon, ON
their return from the church where
they had just been married.
While their carriage was proceeding
slowly between dense lines of cheering,
shouting people and while the young
king and his bride were smiling and
bowling their acknowledgements. a bomb,
concealed in a bouquet, was thrown
from balcony of house
Twenty Killed, 100 wounded.
A frightful explosion followed The
carriage in which the King and Queen
were riding was shattered and the six
white horses drawing it were blown to
pieces. Twenty persons were killed
wounded. Among the injured was the
Duke of Satomayor, the Kings equer-
ry, who was riding at the right of the
royal carriage.
Three officers and six soldiers guard
ing the royal coach were killed, and
nearly every one in Immediate attend
ance was injured. Even in the agonies
of death they were loyal to their trust,
and the bleeding and wounded soldiers
threw themselves around the wreckage
of the carriage. One officer lay dead
with his hand at salute.
Royal Couple Take Another Carriage
The young King and Queen, however,
escaped without even a scratch. The
King Immediately alighted and assist
ed his wife to the ground and into an
other carriage. which drove them Eor-
riedly TO the palace.
The Queen was composed, but upon
reaching the palace she broke down
completely. As she alighted a number
of gentlemen pressed forward, but the
King waved them back and tenderly
supported his weeping wife. an hour
later they appeared hand i'm hand on
a balcony of the palace to assure the
multitudcs that they were uninjured.
During the afternoon King Alfonso
went with his bride to the palace chap
ell, where they offered up lengthy
prayers.
The people almost universally exc

arehists to pieces if they could get at
them.
