Senator Bailey may not have
convinced Spooner and Knox that
Congress has power to deprive
inferior courts of the right to
suspend the rate fixed by the
proposed commission for regu-
lating railroad rates, but he has
convinced every honest man and
that is sufficient. There would
be no need to have a commission
if every little federal court could
suspend its orders for railroads

The State Journal of last Sat
urday contained an article claim
ing that Gov. Hoch had tried to
embrace and kiss Mrs. Stanley,
wife of Ex-Governor Stanley, in
his Office one day last December.
They claim that Mrs. Stanley
verified the report that has been
in circulation ever since. Mrs.
Stanley is member of the visi-
tation board of the state institu-
tons for ladies and she resigned
her position few weeks ago and
the above is the reason.
