ING At ATLANTIC 9th.
Chairman of the Meeting Says
the Oh ect Is to Learn What h
REQUIRED of the Roads to the
End that the Law May Be sn-
telligently Obeyed.

Atlantic City, N. j., Aug. 15-More
than sixty lawyers representing all the
larger railroads east of the Mississippi
river, particularly those traversing
the territory south of the Ohio river
and the New England states, assem-
.bled here yesterday to make detailed
study of the provisions Of the railroad
rate law, which will go into effect
Wednesday, August 80.
Ex-Judge Edward Baxter, Of Nash
Vile, Tenn, special counsel for several
of the leading Southern railroad COM
panies, the presiding officer, said:
Object of Meeting Stated.
r'This meeting of attorneys was
called by the executive and traffic off,
GERS of the railroads east of the Miss
issippi river and south Of the Ohio
river. Counsel of all the Eastern
trunk lines were also invited to partic-
ipate in the meeting although we after
ward learned that the Pennsylvania,
Baltimore & Ohio and the New York
Central roads, with some other compa-
MES, were holding meeting Of their
own.
"a series of printed questions, ask
ing opinions as to the meaning of va
rious provisions of the interstate COM
merce-act as amended on June 80 last,
were presented to us for answer l
answered them and my answers are
being taken up one by one for discus
sion. Already some have been ap-
proved, some rejected and others laid
over for further discussion. They in
volve many important subjects and
cannot be discussed in one or two
days.
Not for Evasion of Law.
"We have not met here to find any
way to evade or Iavoid the new law.
We are here solely to consult among
ourselves and decide just what our
clients will be compelled to do in or
der to carry out the provisions Of the
new measure. The questions are not
secret, but they are lengthy.
1--WE would not object to making
them public if the daily press would
give space to print them in full, to-
gether with their answers. There are
questions which, if printed alone with
their answers, would be misunder-
stood by the public, so it has been de-
cided to keep the questions to our
selves. It cannot be made too en-
phatic, however, that we are here on
a peaceful mission and we do not ex-
pect to even communicate with the in
terstate commerce commission
A large corps of stenographers is
present to take in detail the argu-
ments over the many points Of differ
ence among the legal representatives.
A guard is stationed at the entrance to
the committee room and strangers are
not permitted to get within earshot.

We saw a picture of content the
other morning. happy hey about IA
years old, who was driving dirt
cart along the street. The lines were
secured between his knes; the horses
were jogging leisurely along; the sun
shone pleasantly; his coat was off.
and his calico shirt looked clean and
cool; his hat was tipped back upon
himhis head and he had two pebbles
that he picked up from the dirt, and
these he was tossing. throwing one
up as the other fell, catching each in
turn, and ON his face was a happy,
boyish look of content, that any
world-weary man would give a for
tune to wear as his own. Looking
at him. We thought life is pretty
much what We make 1t after all.
Happiness does not spring from wealtl
or leisure, but from a contended
mind. We doubt If there is hap
pier heart in our city than was that
of the boy riding upon his dirt-laden
cart, tossing his pebbles in the sun
shine.

Notice the effect of this crime upon

months for nothing. Under the law
the register and receiver OF a land Of
fee cannot draw to exceed $4,000
maximum During the first seven
months OF the fiscal year officials at
the Colby land Office reached the
maximum, and from now on until
next July they must give all their
time to the government without a
cents compensation 1t is under
stood that the same condition exists
at the Dodge City land Office.
People are taking homesteads in
the Colby district at the rate Of about
100 a month To be exact, 72O home
steadS entries were made there dur
ing the past seven months About
the same number Of entries were
made at the Dodge City Office. As
near as the officials OF the land Of
fee can figure, there still remains
about 100000 acres in the Colby dis
trict and 100000 in the Dodge City
district open to demonstrating. The
Colby district has about $4,000 acres
left in Wallace county, $4,000 in

CITY ELECTION NAY BE WARM
THREATENED FIGHT FOR MEM
BEERS BOARD EDUCATION.
Prof. Mallory After PeIts OF An Who
Say They Are Not for Him
for Principal

The caucUses in the three wards in
GOOdland, at the uSuaI voting places
Wednesday evening at O'Clock
passed with no signs OF divided
strength. except in the Second ward
where there was a clean-cut division
on the two candidates for member OF
Of the board Of education
The nominees Of the Caucuses, by
ward, are as follows:
First Ward.
For cOunciIman-J. H Stewart; for
member board OF education, J. J.
Second Ward.
For cOuncflman-C. J. Shimeall; for
members board Of education, c II.
AGillisack, T. c Wiley.
Third Ward.
For councilman-H NJ Heston; for
member board Of education, G z.
BiddisOn.
These caucuses. without party can
didates, were simply mass meetings
Of the ward voters, and the nominees
in the First ward were the unanimous
choice Of the voters present In the
Third ward, there were only two dis
senting votes as against twenty-five
for the candidates nominated. In
the Second ward there was some eX-
element as there were two belliger-
ent powers each having a different
set OF candidates, but the real OnuS OF
the division was on the school board
director. W. p. Brinker, the outgoing
member Of the board, was fought by
Prof. Mallory and his friends upon the
grounds that Mr.. Brinker does not
favor the reelection OF Mr.. Mallory to
the principalship Of the Sherman
county high school Mr.. Brinker has
made a good record on the board Of
education, and is popular with his
friends, but the Mallory opposition
carried the case into the ward eau
Gus where Mr. Brinker was defeated
by a majority Of six, the vote being
/ Brinker, II; Wiley, q. The eleven
women voters at the caucus were ad-
herents Of the Mallory faction
Mr.. Mallory stated that candidates
for members Of the board Of edUCa-
ton favorable to him would be put
on the ticket by petition, as against
all nominees whom he thought would
not support him for reelection. If
that happens, there will be a "hOt
/ time" in the town until election day,
April 3. In that event, Mr. Brinker,
has told his friends that that would
give him the right to get into the race
| in his ward by going on the ticket by
| petition, and his friends think he
would prove a strong candidate.
The present situation is one Of sus-
! pense, but the lines Of contest will be
made clear Friday, March %, when
/ the registration books close, and all
nominations have to be filed with the
| city clerk.
