Els necesario fjarse un POGO sobre TODD,
cuando la manera de aparecer esas leyes
en- el Consejo, denota un nuevo procedi-
miento de la -maquinaria Foraker; cuando
parece haber en- eI monitor algunas leyes
de comodidad para empleados, raz6n que
no es ia primera q la que deben las leyes
obedecer; cuando hallanse ALI tambi6n
leyes de gran importancia que comprueban
el ingenio legislative del senior Post y que
impresionan agradablemente al ser hojea-
das
De clio. puede dar ejemplo la ley para
inscripciones y eIecciones; Ia ley para pro
hibir la venta de licores al pormenor, du7
rante ciertas horas; la ley para reglamen-
tar las reuniones pGblicas, proyecto cuyo
tftulo, nuestro entender, esta equivocado,
porque sobre ell derecho de reunion, que es
inalienable, nadie tiene derecho legislar
y porque reuniones p1blicas la hora en-
que los ciudadanos deben dormir dejar
dormir, no son reuniones justas en- ejerci-
clio de un derecho, sino des6rdenes que
contravienen los preceptos de policfa.

Latest News from The
Realm of Fashion
BY ESTELLE

New York, June 16.-As the anxieties
and duties of the home dressmaker are
practically over, for the present at
least. am going to devote this letter
largely to an account Of what l saw in
the shops this week in the way of
ady-to-wear apparel The display
was fascinating because Of the lowell
ness of design and beauty of material.
and 1t was also perfectly satisfactory
in regard to workmanship. One is al
most tempted to advise all women,
whenever possible, to avoid the wear
and tear of home dressmaking entirely
and to choose the seasons outfits as
needed at the ready to wear establish
ments.
II the expense seems too great, fig
ure again and see ii coat or frock less
Will not eQualize matters. OF course
the made-over garments must be done
at home or under personal supervision,
but even here the ready to- wear CO.'S
tunes are invaluable in the way Of
ideas and suggestions. And, after all,
the cash sums required to purchase
coats and frocks ready to wear, though
they may take a pretty slice out OF
ones wardrobe allowance, yet it has
been proved over and over that the ac-
tual cost Is less in the end, for it is
quite possible to get real tailor made
ready to-put-On. at one-half the cost
Of an ordered gown.
The styles shown in many of the
moderate priced garments are equal to
the exclusive costumes turned out by
the most fashionable dressmaker.
l am not yet ready to admit
that there is any designer or maker of
gowns superior to French modiste,
l have lived too long in this country
not to appreciate its remarkable versa
tility.
There are in New York several Irish

SUMMER CAMP FOR ALL.
Entire Washington Militia Will Spend
Week at American Lake.

Olympia, June 4.-Through Adju-
ant General Drain, in Washington,
Gov. Mead has completed arrange
ments with Assistant Secretary of War
Oliver for the participation of the en-
tire militia of Washington in joint
maneuvers with the regular army at
American lake this summer.
The state soldiers will be accepted
by the war department for the service
for one week from August to August
70, both dates being Sunday, the or
CARNATIONS to arrive in camp on Sat-
urday, August 4. Assistant Secreta-
nv Oliver, in his communication to
the governor, said:
"The government will endeavor,
from its limited appropriation, to pay
the entire expenses Of this movement,
with the understanding that such por-
ton as it will be unable to meet will
be paid by the state from its allot-
ment."
On the return of Gen. Drain from
Washington, which will be as soon as
the militia allotment bill is passed by
congress. he will issue the necessary
orders for the camp and for the sea-
SON 8 target work. The militia allot-
ment bill increases the annual appro-
priation for the support of the militia
of the country from $1,000 900 to 3d.

TO DEMAND MILLIONS.
Government Will Try to Collect Big
Fines tor Relating.

Washington, June 4-Fines amount
ing to several million dollars will be
fought by the government against the
railroads shown by the Garfield re-
port to have been guilty of granting
favors to the Standard Oil Company.
This report, with added details, has
gone to the department of justice, and
1t is asserted that waybills, bills of
,ading, shipping records and other
documents accompanying it form a
complete cha of evidence on which
to base prosecutions.
Specific cases showing the granting
of rebates on shipments aggregating
more than 1000 cars will be alleged.
Recently the Chicago, Burlington &
Quincy road was fined 81, 900 car for
six cars of shipments upon which re-
bates we're given. No imprisonment
penalty covered this act, but if this is
made the standard of fines, the gov
eminent hopes to teach the violators a
lesson.
One of the most fragrant cases upon
which much evidence is at hand are
shipments made from Whiting, Ind,
to St. Louis for the Waters-Pierce Oil
Company. False waybills and discrim-
mating rates are alleged to have been
used between these points for ten
years, last year alone saving the Stand
ard Oil Company 1924 900.

TO MODIFY RATES.
Railroads Agree to Compromise With
Coast Lumbermen.

St. Paul, June Am conference
with the traffic officials of the Great
Northern and the Northern Pacific
the Pacific lumbermen effected a COM
promise which reduces the minimum
car weight under the schedule which
it was proposed to put into effect June
Is. The time for putting it into effect
was postponed until July Is in order
to allow the lumbermen to clear up
old orders and adjust themselves to
the new conditions. The details of
the compromise have not yet been
worked out by the officials, but it is
said an agreement was worked out
whereby the maximum will be lowered
to some extent. 1t is expected that
the revised schedule will be announced
soon.
In the past the minimum car weight
has been fixed according to the length
of the cars, but now it will be fixed
on the basis of cubic capacity. The
railroads claimed that the cars we're
not being loaded properly, and that
this method would obviate all disa-
greementS
