WISE "ADvICE OF COUNSEL"
Kansas Railroad Decides to obey
the Law.

Kansas City Star.
The recent backdown of the railroads
from their proposed attack on the Kansas
maximum freight rate law might probably
be considered by managers of the great
transportation interests throughout the
United States. The announcement of the
intention of the roads to advance the
schedule on oil brought protests from the
corporation lawyers throughout the state.
They FASTENED to warn the managers that
such action, with the political conventions
coming on would be suicidal, and that the
next Legislature would be more radical
than any populst body had ever been.
Whereupon the gentlemen in charge of the
railroad interests saw a great light, and
hurriedly announced their intention of
obeying the law of merely protesting to the
next legislature that it was unjust, and
ought to be modified.
1t would appear that the railroads in
general are not so wisely advised as the
Kansas roads are. For they are doing
their best to hold up the rate regulation bill
in the senate and to force a compromise
that will make ii ineffective. Yet the
nominating conventions are coming on.
State legislatures are to be chosen next
autumn that will elect third of the
United States senator's and al the members
of the house of representatives are to be
selected. If the people should find that
the railroads were determined to pre-
vent the enactment of a fair rate law,
might they not respond Kansas fashion,
by sending radical men to Washington?
The case of Kansas is worth the careful
attention of the gentlemen who are direct
ing the railroad fight in the senate, and it
ought to be sanctifed especially to the use
of Aldrich, Elkins. Kean, Foraker and
Lodge.

A general order which affects vitality the
infantry, cavalry and artillery of the army
will be issued this week from the War de-
partment on the suggestion of the president
and in accordance with recommendations
made by the general staff 1t is provided
that the practical training of those troops
shall be divided into two distinct phases
garrison training and field training. The
former will include gymnastics, foot and
horse exercises, close order drills, cere-
monies, guard duty, riding. mechanism of
extended order, hygienic care of the person,
building and grounds, swimming, etc. The
field training will include range finding,
practice marches, camping and such work
as will prepare the solder for service in time
of war. In this training the regulation
field kit for each arm will invariably ac-
company the command and on all marches,
maneuvers, drills and exercises, and in
that part of the target course where pre-
scribed, the kit will be habitually carried
in the authorized way. There will be one
practice march week, the infantry cover
ing not less than twelve miles and the
cavalry and field artillery not less than
eighteen miles. There will be one march
in each month of three consecutive DAYS.
