WASHINGTON NofES.

Senator Hepburn has introduced
a bill in the Senate to amend Sec
ton 4 Of the Interstate Commerce
Act, under which railroads are be-
ing allowed to charge more for
short than for long haul. The
bill is as follows:
That it shall be unlawful for any
common carrier subject to the pro-
visions OF this act TO charge or re-
ceive any greater compensation for
the transportation Of passengers or
of like kinds of property for a
shorter than a longer distance over
the same line in the same drec-
ton, the shorter being included
within the longer distance, but
this shall not be construed as
authorizing any common carrier
within the terms of this act to
charge or receive as great COM
pensation for a shorter as longer
distance.
Senator Heyburn's bill repre-
sents the existing controversy be-
tween the shippers OF the
different parts Of the coun-
try Under the existing law, the
railroads may charge greater rate
to intervening points than is
charged to terminal points on the
same line and under similar con-
ditions. This has resulted in con-
centrating an undue proportion OF
the business and wealth Of the
country on the seaboard, and has
drawn the manufa cturing business
largely from the interior parts OF
the country, where they would in
mary cases be located, freight ad-
vantages being equal. For in
stance, railroads now charge to
Boise, Spokane and other inland
points the through rate from
points like Chicago and St. Louis
to Seattle, Tacoma and Portland
plus the local rate from the coast
cities back to Boise or Spokane.
This is merely an instance OF the
injustice being practiced, and APP
plies equally to all points on both
coasts of the United States. The
present schedules are especially
unjust to the producing centers
of the country, and deprive them
of the natural advantage Of their
location, Senator Hepburn brought
this matter TO the attention of
Congress last spring, but on ac-
count of his extended illness was
unable to push it to successful
issue. He has taken it up again,
and evidently intends to do his
best to have his bill enacted into
law.
Congressman French has intro
duced bill IN Congress that is of
much importance and interest to
many persons living in the north
ern part of Idaho. 1t provides for
classification of all lands in that
portion of the state that have not
already been classified, as to their
being either mineral or non-min-
eral. AS many settlers are on
these lands, and as they are being
contested in the land office by the
railroad, it is very important that
a classification be made as soon
as possible. Some work has al.
ready been done in this matter
of classification, and Mr.. French's
bill provides that this work shall
be pushed to an early completion.

OUR TEAM WINS
The Debate with the Nampa High
School.

Il A4C NGNJASH bSS W. ~ iiASbAhb
atives of the high schools of Noun
tain Home and Nampa took place
at Nampa last Friday evening. In
the order OF their appearance, the
debaters for Mountain Home were
Chrissie Mahoney, Lydia Lahtinen
and Joe Longfellowj and for Nam
pa Leila Beckner, Gladys Graybill
and Arthur Beckner. The ques.
ton was, "Resolved that the Uni
ted States shall grant shipping
subsidies (other than mail sub.
sides for the encouragement of
our ssYferehant marine.o Nampa
had the affirmative, Noun tain
Home the negative. This state.
ment and division gave our de.
baters the privilege of using ma
terial favorable to mail subsidies.
The judges of the debate were
Judge K. |. Perky and Prof. 0. E.
Rose, of the High School, Boise;
and Judge F. A. Hagelin, of Cald-
we'll. Their scale on points was:
argument, so per cent; composition,
25; delivery, 25 The decision of
the judges was 2 to / for the neg.
ative. The strong point of the
Nampa team was delivery, and
they had had more drill. The su-
periority OF Mountain Home was
in composition and argument.
The hall was crowded to its ut
most capacity. A fine musical
program, chiefly furnished by the
Nampa High School, preceded and
followed the debate. A nota BILE
feature was parody on the comic
song, 81 was seeing Nellie home"
sung by the Nampa male quartet.
Some of the variations were: ut
was at Van Sluten's talking party,
we were seeing Mountain Home"
(Prof. VanSluten is the superin.
tendent of the Nampa schools /;
"Gracious me, but they were talk
ers" aside: "Now, isn't that so?')
Something else would have filled
the place of this if Nampa had
won. Our delegates thought this
turn was real cute" of the Nam pa
youth. They speak in terms Of
high praise of the courtesy of the
high school and the people Of
Nampa generally.
After the debate, the Nampa
High School gave reception in
the same hall, which was partic-
ipated in by the Mountain Home
crowd and other visitors and many
of the citizens of Nampa.
The success of our team is the
more remarkable on account OF
their youth. The Nampa debaters
were their seniors by an average OF
a year or two
The Mountain Home people who
attended were: the three debaters

ROBBERY
WIN. BlaCkman'S Pockets Rifled of
Valuable Commercial Paper.

Last Tuesday night, after return
ing from Boise, William Blackman,
Of Bennett Greek, took room in
the Armstrong lodging house, in
the Rosenheim building. He was
aroused about 6 o'clock in the
morning, and saw a man in his
room. He recognized the man as
M. G. Damon, tramp barber who
had been about town for two or
three weeks. He sprang out Of
bed, got between his visitor and
the door, drew a knife, took hold
of his man, marched him down to
the Chinese restaurant and placed
him in the charge OF Charles Gam
bron and G. w. Burns, while he
went to call an officer. When he
returned, he found that the men
ha5 let Damon go.
Upon examination, Mr.. Black
man found that purse from his
pantaloons pocket and souvenir
bill-holder from an inside vest
pocket were gone. The purse con-
tanned about $35 in money; and
the bill-holder contained two cash
ier's checks or certificates of de.
post, issued from Boise bank in
his favor; one for $13,895 and the
other for $4,000, or a total of $751;
395,
Mr.. Blackman obtained search
warrant from Justice Swans court,
and about 9 O'Clock Marshal Boyd
and Night Watchman George found
Damon in bed at Armstrong;, and
searched all of his clothing except
his shoes, without finding any
trace of the money or papers. They
ordered him to leave town, and re-
leased him. Afterwards. evidences
that Damon had been spending
more money than he was supposed
to have came to light; and as he
was known to have visited Grace
Bishops house during the night,
Boyd and George went there about
IL o'clock, and found him. He
had been drinking heavily during
the night, and was almost help
lessly drunk when they found him.
They dragged him out on the porch
and searched him, and found the
two checks in the watch pocket of
his pantaloons From what is
known of his movements during
the night, the officers think Damo n
had committed the robbery in the
middle of the night, and had wan
dered into Mr.. Blackman's room
in the morning in a drunken state
in trying to find a bed.
Damon was brought before Jus.
tice Swan Thursday afternoon, on
a charge of burglary in the night
time. AS he was not provided with
scnunsel, and the hearing had to be
IN. Atinued on that account, Justice
! Swan continued it to the 9th.
1t has been said that Mr.. Black.
man was robbed of eighteen thou.
sand dollars or more. In one sense
this was true, and in another it
was not. The thief had paper ol
his to that amount in his posses
sion for a few hours, and made
several efforts to raise any amount
of money he could on it; but II
was not negotiable without Mr.
Blackman's endorsement. Still
when that amount of our paper
has, by any mischance, gotten into
unfriendly hands, we have always
breathed a good deal easier when
we have gotten it into our own fist
again.

Improved Train Service.
From the Boise Statesman of the
Goth we learn that G. r. Shaw,
chairman of the traffic committee
of the League of Commercial Clubs
of Southeastern Idaho had Just re.
turned from conference with the
traffic department of the Oregon
Short Line at Salt Lake in regard
to certain freight concessions and
improved passenger service
While in Salt Lake Mr.. Shaw
took up the matter with the pas
senger department of securing a
through sleeping car from Salt
Lake to Boise on train No. /, which
leaves Salt Lake at 1915 p. m,
and Mr.. Burley promised to put on
such service within the next few
days.
Mr.. Burley also assured Mr..
Shaw that arrangements were now
being perfected for putting on al
independent passenger train from
Salt Lake to Portland, which will
leave Salt Lake at s o'clock p. M,
and will run through regardless of
eastern connections. This train
will also include Pullman service
from Salt Lake to Boise.
The region about Payette is a
great fruit producer, The report
of j. r. Field, horticultural inspec-
tor for that district, shows that
during the past season apples to
the number of $50 cars were ship
ped from Payette, 120 cars OF
prunes, 6 cars of pears, 2 cars of
peaches and 80 cars of melons,
