With the exception of the Dakotas the
prohibition states remained far behfad
the average in Increase OF population.
South Dakota shows per cent above the
average. but it coased TO be a prohl
hilton state in 1896. and the great in
crease Of the population of North pa
kota remained far behind It's Increase In
the previous decade when Il was 27S
per cent
Prohibition was everywhere followed
by a slower growth OF population IN
Iowa the increase betwoel 1870 and 1850
was SO per oonti in the following de-
oade q sank to 1866. and then to 1878.
The population OF Kansas Increased i73
per ceat between 1870 and 1850. only i2
per cent between 1850 and 1890 and only
Z per cent between 1890 and 1900
Reve5sely. the Influence OF prohibi-
tl0a on the growth OF population Is
shown In Rhode Island Her population
increased rs per cent between 1850 and
1860. In 1863 prohibition was abolished
and the following census showed an in
crease of 25 per cent.
During the same pe-iod the popula-

II Is q remarkable fact that OF tho

DECLARED TO BE UNJUST.
Complaint to the I. C. C. Against Rail
way Rates

In a petition filed with the interstate
commerce commission yesterday zy Hope
Cotton Oil Company of Hope, Ark, against
the Texas Pacific Railway Company and
the st. Louis Iron Mountain and Southen
Railway Company it is charged that the
defendants are exacting from the complain
ant prohibitory freight rates on cotton seed
from Louisiana to Hope. 1t is alleged that
the rate of 81 cents per hundred pounds, in
carload lots. is unjust, and is discrimi-
nation in favor of Texarkana and Shreve
port. The commission is urged to fix a rea-
sonable and proper rate.
The National Petroleum Association of
Cleveland Ohio, engaged in oil refining in
Ohio. Pennsylvania, New York and Canada,
filed three petitions with the interstate
commerce commission against the Chicago.
Milwaukee and St. Paul. the Pennsylvania
and other railroad companies, alleging in
the first that the rate of 20 cents per hum
dred pounds on oil from Chicago TO ST. Paul
and common points Is unjust and unreason-
able; in the second. that the rate of 81 cents
from Chicago to Omaha, Neb.. and con-
tiguous points is unjust. and in the third.
that the rates Of 90h cents per hundred
pounds from Findlay and Toledo to San
Francisco. SO cents from Cleveland to San

structure is, however, marked for demo-
lition, and before long it will go down in
dust and debris, as it Is on the square

company for its freight expansion
Scene of Festivities.
During war times the old structure was
the scene of many pleasant social gather
ings, it Is said, and officers who wore tho
blue, many of whose bones now populate
the wartime cemeteries of the south
were wont to assemble there at the social
functions and participate in the stately
minuet and other festivities. A building
few doors south of the Hanline house was
occupied by former New York merchant
at the time of the civil war, and it is re-
lated that Col. Ellsworth, who was killed
in Alexandria after causing confederate
flag to be hauled down, stopped there
with his friend from the Empire state just
before his departure to Alexandria at the
head of his zouaVes.
