AIMS TO REACH
STANDARD OIL
Campbell of Kansas Offers an
Amendment to Rate Bill
in House.
SHOCKED AT TRUSTS
THREAT OF RETALIATION
Deems 1t Time to Call a Halt
When Such Things
Can Be.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 31.-Discussion
Of the railroad rate bill continued in
the House today. Incident to 1t two
speeches. the efforts of Mr. Campbell of
Kansas and Mr.. Martin OF South Dako-
ia, took a wider range and swept the
horizon of trust evils generally.
Mr. Bartlett OF Georgia. g minority
member Of the committee reporting the
BILL made a two-hours' speech, In
which he discussed the legal and con-
stitutional questions involved and ad-
vocated the passage of the bill as a
proper remedy for an intolerable con-
dition.
First to Oppose It.
The first speech In opposition to the
bill which concluded the days discus
sion, was made by Mr. Perkins of New
York. He based his opposition to Gov
ernment control of rates on an inherent
aversion to Government control Of bus
mess enterprises. Red tape and fixed
conditions, he said, were an inseparable
part OF Government action on any mat
ter.
A bill was passed granting a Federal
charter to the Carnegie foundation
fund for the advancement OF teaching.
Tho fund consists of $40. 600. 000 the in
come of which Is to furnish pensions to
retired educators
To Reach Standard Oil.
with the avowed intention OF reach
ing the Standard oil company, Mr
Campbell offered an amendment which
he will press later, emphasizing tho
placing OF all private car and transpor-
tation facilities under the regulation of
the Interstate Commerce commission.
He quoted from the testimony of rail-
road officials showing that the beef
packers practically make their own
rates; the Standard OIL company had
dictated In the same manner; poultry.
fruit and dairy products were subject
to the same control.
Rcverting to the Standard OIL COM
pany. Mr.. Campbell declared:
Threat Against Missouri.
But yesterday they issued a decree
to the Attorney General and the Gov
ernor OF Missouri that further prose-
cution of a suit now pending I'm the
court against them must be stopped or
they Will destroy the value OF billions
and billions OF property within the
State Of Kansas and the Indian Terri
tory"
Stopping Prosecution.
"Ye godsv' exclaimed Mr Campbell
after he read statement from an off,
Ger Of the Standard Oil company an
nouncing that II the prosecution In Mis-
souri, did not cease the producers of
oil in that section would lack facilities
to market their product THE power
OF monopoly stopping the prosecution
OF suits pending In the courts by
threatening the innocent producers,"
After reciting the Missouri threat Mr.
Campbell read a resolution presented to
the New Jersey Legislature yesterday
directed against the Standard Oh COM
pany, and remarked;
"It must have been sad this morning

REAL VALUE OF SPRAYING.
In Fighting Disease and Insects One
Should Not Depend Too
Much on It. s

So rapid has been the advancement
of spraying as a mean of controll-
ing insects and diseases, that there
is a tendency to greatly overestimate
Its value. 1t was only rs years ago
that Paris green was first used for
the cooling moth of apples. Not un-
til about 1885 was the Bordeaux mix
ture used to any extent. When we
remember that practically all Of our
modern spraying-its tools, mixtures
and methods. has been developed or
made of practical utility within the
past Is or 20 years. until 1t has come
to be an almost universal practice
among the most successful fruit
growers, we can readily understand
why greater Importance Is some
times ascribed to 1t than 1t really
merits. Spraying Is a new idea, says
Farming, and like most new ideas, 1t
has been accomplished. There are
some old and a few new ways Of solv.
ing the insect and disease problems.
Sometimes these other ways may be
better even than spraying, sometimes
they may supplement it very advan.
tageously. We should not. forget
them in our enthusiasm over a new
and valuable remedy.
