AGREE ON RATE BILL.
Differences Regarding Power of
Courts Harmonized-Speedy
Passage Predicted.

Neutrality-suspicious. amounts prac-
tically to an agreement on the exist
ing differences concerning court fea-
lures of the railroad rate bill has been
reached by the senate conference ex
tending over the last week, and Sen
ator Allison will offer an amendment
comforting jurisdiction upon the cir
cult courts to hear and determine suits
brought against the interstate COM
merce commission. The amendment
will not suggest to the court whether
their judicial review shall be con-
fined to constitutional questions or
whether 1t shall be an inquiry into
the business or reasonableness of the
rates fixed by the commission. Sen
ator Long, who made the principal
legal argument for the house bill, and
Senators Aldrich and Crane, the lead
ers in the movement seeking an
amendment providing for broad
court review, expressed themselves
as favoring the amendment, and
both factions are agreed that the
compromise is satisfactory to Presi-
dant Roosevelt. Undoubtedly this
means that obstacles to the speedy
passage of the measure have been
removed.

Intellect in Sex.

The common impression that the av.
erage man is superior to the average
woman Intellectually at least in orig
inality, inVentiveness, reasoning pow.
er and the like is beyond doubt due
to the common habit of judging each
sex by its most superior representa-
tiVes. This seems fair enough, and
would be fair enough, says a writer
in the Bookman, but for the difference
between the sexes in variability, that
is, the range Of spreading down from
and up the average, in intellectual
traits at least the male sex is the more
variable group; the very highest and
very lowest marks in a mixed COLES sc
class will commonly be given to men;
the variability found among boys in
the numerous mental tests which have
been given by psychological investi
gators Is from five to ten per cent
greater than that found among girls.
OF the thousand most eminent intel
lects of history 81 per cent. are men,
the variability which causes the mo.
nopoly of genius causing also the ex.
istence Of twice as many male as fe
male idiots!

Defects of Criminal Law.

There are two reasons why criminal
law reform is a pressing problem to-
day. One is the repression by that re-
form Of lynch law. The other is not
less important. We need that reform
says an Atlantic writer, because the
social condition of our day impera-
lively demands a substantial increase
in the scope and power of criminal
law, system strong enough to meet
the new and increasing requirements
of our civilization for corrective and
repressive criminal law. A system too
complicated to deal out certain justice
to common offenders, ignorant and
brutal, poor in purse and influence,
can never adequately deal with our
new class Of big business criminals.
with the men who get rich by fraud,
the corporation inflaters and wreckers,
the faithless trustees and grating d.
rectors, the exploiters of municipali-
ties, the magnates who give brides
and the bosses who take them, the
trust operators who sin against hon.
esty in business, who break the law
against monopolies. who give and take
forbidden rebates. How can predatory
wealth. powerful, influential, often in.
trenched in Office, be punished by a sys.
tenn which creaks, groans, and often
breaks down, in bringing a border ruff
fan to justice?

GOVERNOR SIGNS
IMPORTANT BILL
Anti Discrimination Act Be-

Law
FOR INDEPENDENTS
Oil Kings Hold on Iowa Will Be
Decentralization Must Be Made
Uniform all over the State in the
Price of Petroleum Products.

Des Moines- Governor Cummins
has signed the anti-discrimination Dill
which Is calculated to relieve the peo
pie of Iowa from the grasp OF the
Standard Oil Company.
Hereafter when John d. Rockefeller
desires to drive competitor out of
business in Iowa he will have to do 1t

lily cutting prices.
Independent oil people believe that
this will open Iowa to the Kansas oil
product and reduce the price of oil to
Iowa consumed several millions of dol
lars year. 1t will permit competition
In the Iowa fields in disposing of oils.
The measure was passed by the last
general assembly and provides that
when company reduces the price of
petroleum or it's products in one local
ity in the state an identical reduction
must be made in every other part of
the state.
So an oil company cannot sell oil
in Des Moines, for instance. at less
price than to other towns in Iowa
which have the same freight rates. If
the price is cut in one town it must
be cut in all. This will prevent a COM.
pany cutting the price in Des Moines,
for instance, to drive out the compe-
tition here, while the price in all other
parts of the state is left at the old
figure or increased sufficiently to
make up the loss in the one town
where competition is being destroyed.
The result will be that prices will
not be cut by the Standard, but that
the average prices will be reduced in
the state is certain for the history Of
law demonstrates it in that common.
wealth. The independent people to
build up business will naturally start
out with lower price for oil than the
Standard. which viii force the Stand
ard to lower level. This will affect
the whole state alike.
The claim is made by the Standard
that the law is unconstitutional and
doubtless the company will make a
test Of it. This can be done by cutting
prices in a single locality and await
ing prosecution under the law. The
Independent oil people contend that
the act is perfectly constitutional.
The rule governing vetoes of acts of
the legislature is that only when it is
beyond a reasonable doubt that a
statute is unconstitutional is an execu.
tive justified in vetoing an act on that
ground. Governor Cummins was NOT
satisfied that the law was unconsti'
tutional on the showing made by the
attorneys for the Standard Oil people
and therefore signs the measure.
Their theory was that the singing
out of petroleum and it's products, the
dealers in which alone are affected by
the law, made it class legislation;
and if it did not appear on it's face to
be oass legislation, nevertheless 1t
was aimed at the Standard Oil COM
pany, which, in itself, made of the act
class legislation.
In these views tho governor could
not concur.

cONSTABLES FIRE ON MOB
Foreign Mineworkers Attack State
Police with Stones and Receive
Shower of Bullets.

Mount Carmel, Pa.-The first seri-
Gus collision in the anthracite coal
regions since mining was suspended
on April /, occurred here Monday be-
tween a mob of idle mine workers
and a platoon of the new state con-
stabulary force, and resulted in the
injuring of probably 20 men, three of
them will likely die.
The disturbance was caused by an
attack on detail of the state pc ice
by several hundred foreigners, who
threw stones at the policemen and
otherwise endangered their lives to
such an extent that they were forced
to fire on the crowd.
While it is believed that score of
persons were injured during the day
only ten are accounted for. Three. 1t
is thought, will die.

vETOES LONG AND

Des Moines.-Governor Cummin

bill passed by the legislature.
He held hearing on the measure,

Grafton since the adjournment of the
assembly month ago. He prepared
statement In vetoing the measure
which gives his reasons for adverse
action.
This statement goes on file with
the secretary Of state, in company
with the vetoed bill. 1t Is, in part,
as follows:
'In my message to the Thirty-first
general assembly / recommended
some modification Of this section as
to passenger rates, but not as to
careful consideration to the bill, be.
cause / am always reluctant to ex-
ercise the power of veto vested in me
by the constitution. If the bill had
been restricted to passenger rates 1t
would be unobjectionable, but the intrr.
duction Of freight makes SO radi-
cal change In the law as 1t has ex-
listed in this state for eighteen years
that l am not prepared TO approve
1t.
ut may be gravely questioned
whether the long line should have the
opportunity to make lower rate be-
tween competing points than 1t makes
on other like distances Of it's system,
inasmuch as the tendency would be
to discourage the building, In the fu-
ture, Of short lines between promi-
nent places. But even If the doubt
were resolved in favor of the long
line, the bin before me is objection
able in that 1t Is optional, instead of
mandatory, and in that 1t would al
low the long line to select particu-
lar commodity and make the short
line rate upon 1t, and retain the long
line rate on other commodities.
"The subject is an intricate and
complicated one, and although 1t may
be that our present law can be bet
tered, l am Of the opinion that any
proposed modification should be fully
discussed before the appropriate
committees of the general assembly,
and carefully considered in debate
before 1t Is made.
II am constrained, therefore, to re-
turn you the bill without my ap

writes George W. Alger, In Atlantic,
and particularly in those in which a
firm and vigorous administration OF
Justice is of urgent Importance, the
Judge who presides at a criminal trial
IS not permitted by law to be Judge
in any real or vital sense. He must
not comment on the evidence, he must
not review the facts and set them in
coherent order before the jury, he
must not sift the testimony and sepa-
rate the material from the immaterial,
he must, above all things. refrain from
expressing in any wise a personal
opinion on anything from the start
OF the trial to It's close. He must deal
out abstract rules Of law, and leave the
jury to their own devices with such
blind guidance in endeavoring to apply
that law to the facts. If he sees them
