To say that there are now 1900. 600

an excellent basis Of comparison. The
reports Of this school enumeration in

These reports give abundant reasons
for estimating that the population OF
Missouri is now 100000. Many less
conservative estimates make Il much
larger. Marty every school district
shows an increase Ia the number Of

attributed in part to the fact, which

Regarding the equal guilt OF all thu
indicted corporations. Judge McPher
son said:
Il assess the fines against all OF said
corporations az the same sum. / do
this on full consideration. These par.
ties were all together in this scheme
with like motive and purpose. The
corporation that grants concessions lie
neither more nor less guilty than The
party who receives such benefits, and
the form Of the indictment cannot
change this any more than in the case
Of q who steals and and n who
knowingly receives stolen goods. Rail
roads and shippers must be treated
alike In cases wherein they violate the
Elkins law.
This is so both under the law and
lnder any code Of morals. Both ship
peS and the railroads must under
stand that however artful the scheme
there is quail intelligence, which will
uncover and expose it's ~nakedness. And
II railroads and shippers doubt this
