freight charges really amounts to so
per cent on this count alone. The
reply of the standard officials is that
the small producer should own his
own tank cars, as the standard does.
the, railroads have ways of landing
his cars in San Francisco when he
wants them in New York.
Mr.. Garfield reiterates his asser-
ton that the discrimination in
freight rates means saving to the
standard of hundreds of thousands of
dollars annually. He declares that to
effectively conceal the lower rates
they have given to the standard, the
railroads have used peculiar methods
of billing and accounting. He says
that shipments have been falsely
waybilled at the published rates and
freight charges collected at the lower
rates. Rates have been made for the
express purpose of letting the stand
ard into certain markets and for
keeping competitors out. If Mr.. Gar
field adds, the law prohibits the OBJ
timing of certain advantage by a
specific device and the same result is
obtained in Il different way, then the
law is faulty and its justice is sha
Altogether the commissioner shows
himself no mean hand at toying with
the Muck Rake, but he shows that as
Commissioner Clement puts it in the
Interstate commerce hearing, that
''if the standard is muck, there is no
good reason why 1T should not be rak-
ed" In fact Mr.. Garfield comes out
as the Ida Tarbell of the administra-
uion and it is probable that the rail-
road and standard oil officials will
keep quiet after this blast for fear a
worse thing befall them.

Washington Letter.
.eFrom our REGULAR correspondent.l-

.(FrOm oar regular correspondence
WASHINGTON, ID. C., May 10, 1906.
For time, at least, the senate is
done with the Rate bill The final
vote on the bill has not yet been TAX
en-, but the Allison amendment has
been Incorporated in it, and the sus-
picious words sin their Judgment, y
which alluded to the Interstate COM
merce commission, have been strick-
en- out by large majority. So it
looks as though there would be no
cloud on the constitutionality of the
bill as it will ultimately be passed.
The questionable words were contain
ed in the original Hepburn bill, but
it was agreed that while they might
possibly vitiats it's constitutionality
they could add nothing to its effec-
tiveness. They were therefore elm
mated. There is still some question
among the various authorities as TO
how wide a review the Allison amend
ment will really amount to. The
chances are that it will prove tolerably
sweeping. But if the courts are honest,
and it is to be presumed that they are,
there can be no objection to a court
review of the findings of the Inter
state commerce commission.
There is good deal of sting In the
comeback of the commissioner of
corporations at the standard oil COM
pany and the railroads that he has
accused of bad faith, rebating and
other things in connection with the
transportation of oil. Mr.. Garfield
says in a letter TO the president on
the subject, that the criticisms of the
railroads and of the standard oil Of
fetal as to his report are all of them
groundless and that they dodge the
real issue. He does not brand them
all as deliberate and malicious
liars, as did Senator Bailey in call
ing down certain correspondents in
the senate. But he produces a few
facts that have almost the same effect.
He says that the investigation dis
closed ''humerous and fragrant viola
tions of the law and Determinations
by the railroads in favor of the stand
ard oil company" He says that the
standard oil company, despite the de-
NAL of its officials, has been given alb
Solutely unassailable and monopolistic
control of the oil market. He point
ed out some of the Determinations as
follows: Secret and seml-secretr rates,
discrimination in the open arrange
ment of rates. discrimination in clas-
sitication and rules of shipment and
the discrimination in the treatment
of private tank cars. He says that
unfairness obviously is not necessary
when the standard ships at the high
er and the independent at the lower
rate A sample of this is in the ship
ment of oil in bulk and in barrels.
The tank cars used by the standard
where they do not use pipe lines. are
returned to them free of charge The
smaller producer who has to ship his
oil in barrels because he does not
own tank cars, is charged the same
freight on the barrels as on the oil,
which amounts to nearly a % per
cent discrimination against him, and
he is forced to pay the same freight
on the return of his barrels if he is
not able to sell them at the end of
the run, so that the discrimination in

Cost OF a College Education.

This is the time of year when
many young men and women con-
template attending a college or
university. No worthier object
could actuate them. Put into
effect such a purpose will bring
back far more of success and hap
piness than it will cost of time and
money. The young person with
out college education. in this
day, is handicapped. The de-
mand everywhere is for men who
are college trained. Of the $4,000
men who, in the history of this
country, have attained distin-
guished success 5000 have been
college or university graduates.
One out of every thirty college
graduates and one out of every
1900 others have reached distinc-
ton. The young man who secures
a college education has increased
his chances of success just fifty
fold. The value of a college
training is not to be measured in
dollars and cents, but, while that
is true, it is, as a matter of fact,
the good fortune of the young
people of this day that a college
education is equally within the
reach of rich and poor. At our
own State University at Columbia,
now one of the greatest institu-
tions of learning in the United
States, the cost of years attend
ance may be made less than 5000.
There is no tuition. Other ex-
penses are comparatively low and
more than a third of the 2100 stu
dents earn the whole or a part OF
their way. A large number OF
others earn in the three months
vacation enough to take them COM
fortably through a year in the
University.

A Serious Matter.

Over in Texas county a prosecu-
ton has been instituted that in
wolves two prominent county Of
ficials. Byron DeForest is tax
collector, and Chas. E. Covert is
his tax attorney. Both are Re-
publicans, and have long been
close personal and political friends.
DeForest has now had Covert ar
rested on the charge of embezzling
S1400 of the public monies from
the tax collections in his Office. 1t
is not to be presumed that De-
Forest would make such a grave
charge against his friend without
good cause. Covert denies the
charge and will fight it from start
to finish. He is young attorney
who has borne an excellent repu-
tation, and man of influence in
his party. It is hard to believe he
would do such thing. There is,
however, no dispute about the ST.
400 of the public funds being short,
and DeForest must stand the loss
unless it be located elsewhere.
Whatever be the result of the
legal investigation the stigma will
rest on the public in Texas county.
The looting Of public or trust
funds is grave crime and the
people are being aroused to pun
ish the guilty as never before. II
is strange that peculations OF
small amounts could have con-
tinued until S14OO had been taken,

The Earthquake Year.

The year 1906 will be memorable
in the history of the western hem
isphere at least, as that in which
the Pacific coasts of North and
South America were racked and
desolated by terrible tremors.
Central California was afflicted by
earthquakes and fires in the mid
die April and on August 10th tre-
mendous shocks caused great de-
struction of property and probably
Of life in Chilli.
The cities of Valparaiso and
Santiago are known to have suf-
fered almost the same fate that
befell San Francisco. Slow,
swinging movements Of the earth
were succeeded by a sudden jerk
that flung whole blocks of build
ings to the ground. A little later
much more violent shock levelled
all the principal structures in the
city. The catastrophe involved
several hundred lives and caused
an amount Of suffering among the
survivors even greater than marked
the disaster at San Francisco be-
cause it is mid-winter in Chile and
homeless people were exposed to
cold weather. Fires broke out at
once and consumed the ruins Of
fallen buildings, as we'll as struc-

Help the Party.

From the Fulton Gazette.
The Democratic State Central
Committee is trying to raise the
money necessary to conduct the
coming campaign by popular sub
scription. A solicitor has been
appointed in every school district
in the State, and the response
ought to be, and doubtless will be,
generous.
The party cannot win without
money to pay legitimate campaign
expenses, and it cannot get money
in any other way than by appeal
ing to the people. The corpora
tons would not give it, and the
committee would not take it from
them were they to offer it.
The party is making a campaign
for the people in the interest OF
good, economical government and
law enforcement. 1t is the only
political organization of conse-
quence which stands erect in de-
Tense of private and public virtue.
Opposing it is every interest that
can profit by bad government OF
lax enforcement of the law. The
Republican party, willingly or un-
willingly, will be the beneficiary
of their opposition. To some ex-
tent, then, Republican victory
would mean triumph for the law.
