INSISTS THAT He IS INTEREST
ED ONLY IN THE PEOPLE.
SMOKED OUT IN SENATE
West Virginia Senator Denies Charges
That He Is a Monopolist-Favors
Shippers Rather Than Railroads.
World Washington Bureau.

Washington, April 6.-On the sem
ate floor this afternoon Senator FL
kins, chairman Of the Interstate Com
merce Commission, answered those
who charged that he was a railroad
senator, and had conducted hearings
on the rate bills in the interests of
the roads.
EKjs said that he had no inter
ests which could influence him in the
matter, his desire being to serve the
public. He was heartily in accord
with the president, but that the Hep
burn bill as drawn was deficient and
unconstitutional. He said he believed
in rate legislation, by the commerce
commission; that he believed that the
commission should have the power to
fix rates; that he believed in the re-
view Of rates by the United States
courts; III the suspension OF commits
sions Of orders by them, provided that
money on deposit be made by com
mon carrier while the matter was in
court. Regarding his personal posi-
ton, he said: 81 stand first for the
interests Of the people Of West Vir-
ginia; after that for the interests Of
the people of the United States. The
charge that | favor the railroads is
SO often repeated that | will say in
truth that my interests on the side Of
the shipper is ten times gretater than
on the side of the railroads; that
my interests in the railroads is con-
fined to those Of my own state. +"

A JUDGMENT AGAINST ROSE.

Topeka, Kas., April GA judg-
ment of custer was issued against
Mayor Rose of Kansas City, Kansas,
by the supreme court this afternoon.
Instead Of making motion to dismiss
the states custer suit against his eli
ent because he resigned his Office, Hut
chins, attorney for Rose, asked that
judgment be entered against him i'm
mediately, which was done. Attorney
General Coleman was greatly surpris-
ed at the custer suit. He stated it
was against Rose for a failure to en-
force the prohibition law.

Senator Aldrich imagined he
was perpetrating huge joke,
when, unable to defeat the railroad
rate bill or to have it amended in
the senate committee on interstate
commerce, succeeded in having it
placed under the floor leadership of
Senator Tillman in the senate,
when the honor belonged to Sena-
tor Dolliver, who has been the
staunch champion of the bill in the
committee-Senator Tillman being
known for his antagonism to the
president, whose pet measure is
that bill. But with the railroad
senators this appears to be a case
of hoist with their own petard, "
for the president and Senator Till
man are both too broad minded
and honest to prevent them from
working together in a matter of
such vital interest to the people.
The day is coming when the Aid
richs, Platts, Depews, Forakers and
other corporation senators will be
relegated to the obscurity to which
they belong.

When Mr.. Gooding made cam
paign tour over northern and cen
trail Idaho in 1904, he became SO
strongly impressed with the inn
portance and necessity of a rail
road uniting these portions Of the
state with the south, that after he
became governor, he made promin-
ent mention of it in his inaugural
address. He is liable to see this
most important enterprise carried
to completion sooner than he could
then hope to realize. The P. & /.
N. 10 now extending its road as far
north as Meadows, and the N. P.

give out their plans.

FRIDAY, MARCH 9, 1906.
THE VITAL PROBLEM.

Withoutquestion the most inn
portant subject for adjustment
in this century involves the re-
lations existing between employ
ers and employed. Gradually
this question is making itself
felt in state legislatures, in con-
gress and in the judiciary. There
is a state OF war constantly ex-
listing between those two forces
called capital and labor. The
one is striving to keep wages at
the lowest possible point, that
dividends may be more frequent
or larger; the other is working
equally hard to wiring the last
farthing from capital. Broadly
speaking, neither cares for the
other nor is interested in it's con-
dition. The workmen knows lit
tie OF his employers losses or
profits; the employer cares moth
ing for the occasional tales of
distress that penetrate to his
inner Office. On the one side
there is poorly concealed con
contempt; on the other side
there is open hatred. The en-
ployer takes to little heed OF
hungry children, saddened wo-
men and angry men. The en-
ployed cares nothing for invest
ment, profits or the conditions
of trade. There is a wide gull
separating the world of capital
from the world of labor and it is
bridged by no sympathy and no
community of interest. To be
sure, there are small enterprises
where the relations existing be-
tween employer and men are less
strained, sometimes even cordial.
But taking that large body of
laboring men controlled by trade
unionism and on neither side will
be found much consideration for
the other. Strikes are called be-
cause labor leaders believe they
can force higher wage scale.
Strikes are settled, when employ
ers are compelled to grant the
increase or when the strikers are
starved into submission. There
fore returning to the first state
ment. The most important sub
lect of the century involves the
adjustment of these differences.
The laboring man will not al
ways be ground under merci-
less heel; the employer will not
always permit his business to be
dictated by outside interests.
And above and beyond these
things there is the question OF
the common good, touching
both employer and men. Wheth-
er the settlement will come
through a national board of ar
bitration, whose decisions shall
be final, or through a profit
sharing system in which en-
ployes shall participate, or some
method not yet evolved, it may
be stated that the prosperity,
permanency and peace Of this
people rests upon the rightful
solution of the DrOblem.

NEVADA.

Nevada, the "Battle Born
State" admitted into the Union
during the time of it's direst
troubles of the Civil War; Neva-
da, whose silver production from
the Comstock bonanza mines
saved the credit of the country
when in the EXTREMIST need;
Nevada, since derided as a peck
ct burrough, while sending to
y. S. Senate such able statesmen
as Stewart and Jones; Nevada,
the only state in the west which
has shown a decrease in popula-
ton during a decade; Nevada is
coming to the front again and
the next census taken will show
a greater percentage in increase
OF population than any other
state has shown in this or any
decade. All the world is talking
OF Nevada now. Why? 1t is the
gold discovered in her desert
mountains and plains within the
last four or five years that has
wrought and is still bringing
about the transformation Of
conditions. 1t is Tonopah, Gold
field, Bullfrog and the almost
daily other discoveries made in
the southwestern part Of Neva-
da, skirting near Death Valley
the most desolate and forbidding
spot on earth-which is working
the change for Nevada. And it
is not that portion of the state
alone which is profiting by these
great discoveries. 1t has put
new life in many of the older
camps Of the state; has re-estab-
.lished the theory that the great
est gold and silver mineral belt
in the United States extends
northeasterly across Nevada en-
tirely up to southern Idaho. The
same granite formations appear,
bearing minerals with the same
general characteristics, entirely
through from Mount Dawson
and the Comstock to the Owyhee
Mountains in Idaho. There is
and will be more prospecting
done on a line between these
points within year or two to
come than formerly. Willow
Greek, in Humboldt county,
north OF Winnemucca, is on this
line. Within the next two years
a railway will in all likelihood
traverse this line from Boise to
the Central Pacific, at or near
Winnemucca. Willow Creek,
near this line is an old mining
district partially abandoned
long ago, for want of transport
tation facilities. We note that
many prospectors are there
again, relocating old claims.
Look out for busy times down
there before the summer passes.
As we said before, Nevada is
coming to the front again, not
only along the line Of it's south
western border, but all over. 1t
is the only state in the Union
which will show an increase in
population OF more than one
hundred per cent in a single de
cade, as the census taken in
1910 will demonstrate. Idaho
will make the next best showing.
