1t may occur to nssuy people of the
State of Nepafta that the Western Pa

furnish the people with a lower freight

history of the interests behind this sys-

Southern Pacific Railroad influences
with President Roosevelt are nil, and
it seems to be the reason for the failure
of Judge Harrington to get the ap-
pointment to the Federal bench. The
fact that Mack g. Harrington have been
counsel for the Southern Pacific Com
pany. and are still SO acting. seems to
be the objection to F~arrington's APP
pointment. Notwithstanding Senator
Nixon has made the recommendation.
and this fact may lead to the appoint

or dream of asking the companies to pay

that this whole matter is to be tried out

Editor SENTINEL: The action OF the
Board Of Pardons ct its last meeting
smacked very loudly of politics. when
the fact that conventions of all politi-
cal parties are about to assemble in this
State. The pardons granted to the two
murderers were each roundly disap-
proved in the communities where the
deeds were committed. Let every COM
munity make o mental review Of the
crimes committed in the last 90 years
and then make q calculation as to how
many Of the sentences, at the time
they were pronounced, were deemed or
considered more severe than the facts
justified, and then ask why the pardon.
ing power is given to any person or
body Of persons in authority except for
absolute proof Of innocence Of the party
being punished. and we may get some
where near q Just law on this subject.
From the number Of petitions now
pending before the Board Of Pardons
we may expect. between now and cleo
ton day, to see the Warden keeping
guard over the pen without inmates.
What means the very generous streak
that percolated through the heretofore
clsse-fisted management Of the South
ern Pacific Railroad in the reduction Of
the passenger rate from five cents a
mile to four cents?
Is it possible that the San Francisco
disaster, coupled with the large in
crease in the population in the State of
Nevada, and the fact that a State Legis-
lature is to be elected this Fall. so dis
organized the political machinery Of the
company that 1t is beginning to feel the
pressure Of the people in their demand
for justice ia railroad rates for this
State?
No one disputes the power Of the
State Legislature to regulate freight
and passenger rates within the limits of
the State, and il the next Legislature is
true to this State it has the greatest op-
portunity to make Of this State one Of
the greatest mining centres Of the
world. With abundance Of power
flowing down the Carson, Truckee and
Humboldt rivers going to waste,
why. pray tell me, is it that Salt Lake
is to-day pushing lines out into every
mining camp Of promise in. order that
its shelters may get the ores of this
State to keep busy their large plants,
when for much less freight. If the lsgis.
lators will but fix the rate. as it is
clearly written within their power to
do. all of this should go to smelters and
reduction works of all kinds within the
borders of our own commonwealth and
the powernow going to waste be utilized?
Let the qualification for a legislative
position at the election this Fall be,
freight and passenger rates consistent
with the business the State produces,
and this determined by the Legislature
rather than by a board of directors in
New York.

IN HONOR OF SOLDIER DEAD.
Associated Press e The Eve,ine Use.

Lewiston, Pa. June 21.-The Mifflin
county soldiers and sailors monument
was dedicated today with impressive
ceremony and in the presence of one
OF the largest crowds ever gathered
here. The ceremonies were preceded
by parade composed of the COVER
nor's party and large military escort.
The programme of exercises included
addresses by several prominent speak
ers interpreted with patriotic music.
The Miflin county soldiers and sail
ors' monument is one of the finest
memorials of it's kind to be erected
in Pennsylvania. 1t consists of solid
granite column 80 feet in height, rest
ing on a magnificent foundation of
carved stone. About the base are four
figures. representing the four branch
es of the service. On each side are
appropriate inscriptions. The column
is surmounted by the figure of color
bearer II feet high: the entire monu-
ment is 81 feet inches high, and cost
upwards Of $4,000.
Mifflin county claims the distinction
of sending the first troops to the de-
tense of the nation and also of send
ing more soldiers to the front during
the civil war than any other county of
equal area and population.

Over 100000 spindles were added to
the Southern cotton mills in the first
three months of this year. They are
estimated to cost $40 spindle, which
indicates an investment Of $3,813,040.
This is a much better record than that
of any quarter period of 1905, being
nearly $4,000 more spindles than re-
ported for the best quarter Of last year.

AMERICAN LEAGUE.
A TRAMP RACE.
Worth Carolina Town Gets Sport and
Loses the HObOes.
(Houston Post.

(Houston Post)
Raleigh, N. c., June 21.-The town
of Wilson, this state, has introduced
new hobo form of ''sport'-tramp rae
ing. When hobo "hits the town" he
is arrested and incarcerated in the
town lookup. When a number has
been accumulated that the town au-
thorities deem sufficient, the whole lot
is marched out onto the public square
Across this line is drawn and the
tramps are told to line up. Hardly has
the ragged line been formed when
the town marshal confronts them,
rawhide whip in hand, and informs
them that one mile down the road is
a ditch that marks the corporate lin
it's of the town. At given signal they
are to start for this ditch, and it is to
be distinctly understood that the hobo
whose tattered coattails last flutters
across the ditch is to be treated to
such a flogging as he will have cause
to remember all the days of his life.
This pronounciamento is announced
with an impression that leaves no
doubt in the mind of its hearers, and
the ragged boes Immediately begin to
inspect each other in an effort to size
up each others sprinting ability, the
short hobo cycling The long legs of his
neighbor with envy.
Line up an toe the mark square,"
shouts the marshal.
Cit set:''
Got"
The line surges, then breaks and off
go the hoboes. The marshal and his
assistants leap upon their waiting
horses and are off after the flying
tramps, catching up with them and
squirting the ambition of the laggards
with sharp warning fiicks from their
whips. Straight down the road goes
the flying company, their heels patter-
ing upon the ground with spurts of
dust. From tattered bulks they quickly
dwindle into ragged specks and are
soon lost to view in cloud of dust,
while the assembled spectators shout
with glee.
AS matter of fact. no man has ever
been logged yet, but belief in the fog
ging of the last man across the ditch
is firm, and no tramp that has once
run the race has ever been known
to return to the town of Wilson.

New York, June 21.-The oldest,
richest, and nose popular of the great
handicaps for horses Of mature age on
the metropolitan turf, the race for the
Suburban handicap. is to be run this
afternoon at the opening of the Coney
Island Jockey clubs June meeting on
the Sheepshead Bay track. Never in
the twenty years of its history has the
great turf event failed to attract a
huge attendance. but this year even
greater things are anticipated, and
the officers of the Coney Island club
have made all necessary arrangements
for the accommodation of such crowd
as was never seen ON New York race
course before.
Though the entries for the big race
are hardly up to the high standard
established in former years. the horses
named to start include some of the
best that the seasons racing up to
date has brought into prominence.
Though the entries of Harry Payne
Whitney appear to have the best
chance. it is felt that the race. like
the recent Brooklyn handicap, may go
to long shot.
