commission to fix rates. The commits

Just and unreasonable charges on the
part of common carriers in the transport
tation of persons or property or OF regu-
latons or of practices affecting such
as to whether the rates or practices are
"uniustly discriminatory or unduly
preferential or preudcial or otherwise
In violation of the act and In case any
Of these conditions are found to exist,
the commission is empowered to deter
mine and prescribe what will be the just
and reasonable maximum rate and what
regulation or practice is JUST, reasonable
and fair. To apportion joint fares, es-
tablish routes maximum Joint rates and
prescribe their visions and to deter
mine the compensation to be paid to
shippers doing service for carriers.

special favors to one class of passengers
over another, prohibit railroad compa
MES from transporting commodities pro-
duced by themselves, require such CON-
bines to put In switches at the reasona-
Bile request of shippers, prohibits the
granting or acceptance of rebates, and
reinstates the imprisonment penalty for
violation Of the law.
The commission is given access to the
accounts Of companies affected by the
act, but examiners are forbidden under
penalty of heavy foe and long imprison-
ment from dvulging the facts ascertain

In Washington.

The railroad rate bill passed the SEN
ate on Friday. after seventy days of al
most continuous deliberation and some
heated debate. The vote was practically
unanimous. II to 8 The three negative
votes were cast by Senator Foraker, Re
publican, of Ohio and Senators Morgan
and Pettus, Democrats of Alabama.
The main provisions of the bill are given
in an article elseW here, The railroad
rate bill was considered for five hours
Monday night, by the House committee
on interstate and foreign commerce and
the decision reached to recommend dis
agreement to all of the Senate amend
ments and TO send the measure to CON
ference The committee will not ask
that instructions of any character be
given to the House conferees There
was no disposition to criticize the
amendment comforting jurisdiction on
the courts to review orders made by
the interstate commerce commits son for
in the House committee as well as in
the Senate. many members contended
that the bill as it was passed by the
House gave that authority to the courts.
There is no doubt but the differences
will be adjusted and the bill pass.

1t Is little short Of astonishing TO
see how little water Is required to float
the southern river steamers. a boat
loaded with perhaps Il thousand bales
of cotton slipping along contentedly
where q boy could wade across the
stream. Once, however, the Chatta.
hoochee got too low for even her light
draft commerce, and at Gunboat
shoals steamer grounded. As the
drinking water on board needed re
plenishing. deck hand was sent ashore
with a couple of water buckets lust
at this moment northern Traveller ap-
preached the captain OF the boat aud
asked him how long he thought they
would have to stay there.
"Oh, only until that man gels back
with bucket of water TO pour Into
the river the captain replied Pres
emily the deck hand returned. and the
stale water from the cooler Was
emptled overheard. instantly. to the
amazement of the traveller, the boat
began to move
well, If that doesn't beat thunder

The fact was that the boat touching
the bottom. had acted as dam and
there was soon backed up behind her
enough water to Lift her over the shoal
and send her on down the stream

At the Episcopal State convention
held in Portland, last week, Archdeacon
Robinson introduced the following reso.
luton:
"Be it resolved by this convention
that the present condition of laxitv Of
the enforcement of the prohibtory law
of this State, in several sections of the
State, is detrimental to the moral and
religious tone of tie communities in-
volved, and that we demand its enforce.
ment without exception throughout oul
entire State"
After an animated discussion, tht
resolution was passed. Il will be seer
that in adopting the resolution the con-
vention did not place itself on record az
either favorng or opposing the law, bui
simply as demanding that it should BIZ
enforced impartially.

Assessments for 1OOR.

We publish in another column a list
of the persons and corporations, taxable
in SkoW hogan, whose tax amounts to
$50 or more. In this connection some
interest may attach to the fact that full
valuation was not placed on bank stock
and other similar securities by the cor
poration assessors in years past The
law cresting the Skowhegan Village
Corporation provided that assessments
should be made commensurate with
benefits received and, as securities and
some other forms of personal property
may be stored in fire proof safes and
would, therefore. benefit only slightly
by the system of fire protection provid
ed by the Corporation, they were assess
ed for one.hslf their true value. For
this reason real estate, when located
away from the center of the Village
pump and hydrant service was assessed
at less than its value, the amount of
difference varying with the location.
AS the Village Corporation is now
abolished, no such element entered into
the assessment for the present year; all
property in all parts of the town being
assessed at its true value according to
the judgment of the assessors. From
this it follows that all person, living
within the limits of the old Skowhegan
Village Corporation, who have previous
ly paid corporation tax on bank stock,
etc, or on property in the outskirts of
the village will find their tax slightly
higher than In previous years.

II is said that Yellowstone National
Park has been greatly changed by un-
foreground disturbances following the
recent San Francisco earthquake. Guides
and tourists say it will be necessary for
the government to make new maps of
the wonders contained therein. The
more prominent features are greatly
changed. Especially is this true OF the
geysers, which are making wonderful
displays, "Old Faithful" which hid
never varied in its eruptions, has chang
ed from an intermittent to q regular
geyser and is in almost continuous ac-
ton, the flow of water being many times
above normal. Many others almost
equal it. Geysers supposed to be ex-
tinct for hundreds of years have broken
out airesh and are throwing streams of
hot water high in the air. 1t is believed
that hundreds of elk and other wild ami
mails have left the park and gone into
the forest reserve adjoining. New
springs are making their appearance in
every direction.

The returns received at the State As

while in 1905 the figures were 26,02l
these of 1905 are but % $40, difference

though a small one 1t Is nevertheless
encouraging. The number in 1905 was

The verdict in the heresy trial of Rev.
DR.. A. 5. Crapsey OF New York, Is
against the accused minister, leader
and member OF the Episcopal church.
His preaching was found to be squarely
against the cardinal and accepted doe
trines of that church, as expressly laid
down in their creed, and no sane person
could expect any other verdict. The
offending clergyman is an intelligent
gentleman, and when he accepted the
rectorship he understood distinctly what
are the foundational doctrines of the
church. Ii he has changed his views on
these essential matters, his plain duty
was to step down and out, and seek a
more appropriate place for the promul-
cation of his newly found doctrine.
The world is wide, and there is undoubt-
eddy a field for his endeavors. The
heroic business in these matters is great
ly oVerworked.

Columbia RIver Thrice Named.

The Columbia river has had three
.names. 1t was first called the Oregon.
Afterward il was called the ST. Rogue.
but when ii was discovered by Robert
Gray in 1892 IT WAS given the name Of
his vessel, the Columbia, in place of
the two floating applications, Oregon
and St Rogue. According to Whitney.
The original name Of the river was the
OREGON, big ear" or "one that has big
ears" the allusion being to the custom
Of the Indians who were found in its
region of stretching their ears by bor-
Ing them and erowdlng them with or
naments.
