NEWSPAPERS HIT
NO MORE TRANsPoRTATloN FOR
ADVERTISING.
SUCH is THE NEW RULING
Interstate Commerce Commission So
Interprets the Law-RaiIroad Tick
cts Must Be Paid for in cash-Not
Subject to Trade Like Merchandise.


Nashington.-Under a ruling of the
Interstate Commerce Commission.
transportation oyer railroad lines no
longer may be given to newspaper
publishers or editors in exchange for
advertising space.
a protest against this ruling has
been received from the Massachusetts
Press Association, which SAYS the as
sociation has voted to enter its protest
against the reported ruling in holding
that the payment for railroad trans
portation at full rates in advertising
shall be treated on any other basis
than that of transportation paid for in
cash
In response to the protest Chairman
Knapp of the commission says:
You are, of course. aware that all
tariffs filed in compliance with the reg
ulating statute names rates in dollars
and cents and do not in any case pro-
vide that transportation can be paid
for with property. 1t seems plain to
the commission that the law above
quoted, coupled with the fact stated.
permits the payment for services of
interstate carriers only in money.
a contrary rule would sanction un-
equal compensation by different per-
sons and involve ordinarily some de-
gree of discrimination in favor OF
those permitted to exchange their
commodities for the transportation
they desire or secure. 1t is the aim OF
the law to prevent every sort OF favor
itism and secure equality of treatment
in all cases.
This ruling of the commission in
no way interferes or abridges the
rights of private contracts. Newspa-
pers and their advertising space may
be freely exchanged for any species of
property upon such terms as may be
acceptable to the parties to the tran
saction. But the facilities of the pub
lie are not private property. nor are
they subject to bargain and sale like
merchandise. The right to travel or
have property carried by railway, like
the right to common highway, is not
a contract right, but a political right.
the very essence of which is equality.
"Conceding that the advertising ar
rangements in question are ordinarily
made and carried out in good faith, il
seems plain to me that these arrange
ments must involve some measure of
discrimination. and it is not easy for
me to see how an honest newspaper
can seriously object to a ruling of the
commission which appears to be in OBJ
vious accord with the provisions and
the purposes of the regulating stat.

THE FUSION PARTY

For more than twelve wears past
the Republicans of Nevada have pre-
dicted the death Of the Silver party.
They have advertised the demise, Sc
lected the day of burial and hired the
undertaken. They have been able in
fact to furnish all the adjuncts OF a
first-class funeral except the one very
essential thing known as the corpse
Last Saturday they had all the ar
fragments made at Reno for The long
desired obseQuies but as usual t~e
co~Dsa failed to materialize. and the
interesting and music advertised cere-
mony had to be again postponed.
A Republican editor in Nevada was
so positive that the funeral would
be pulled off that he wrote a touching
and studied notice of the contem-
plated obseQues and had it in type.
This he was obliged TO lay sadly
away by itself on a shelf until he
can find time later to have it dis
tributed.
The reason that the party refuses
to die can be easily explained. Il
is in a perfectly healthy condition all
over the state and able to fully ma
ter'alize when ever called upon.
Twelve years ago when the Repub-
,rt, roinO r. r CT e., -

administration. with a roc,'1 of de-
falcations and shortages high tax
rates and general decentralization, the
o. PIE rOs, up ari kicka: Il on Of
power and ca'ed for & Few deal.
The change brought about a re-
duction of official. eXpences and a
constantly decreasing tax rate. The
affairs of government have been
honestly conducted and a better ad-
minfstration at less expense.
The party in power have taken the
burdens of taxation in hand and by
wise legislation more justly equali-
zed them in the distribution.
It has not favored the rich at the
exnense of the poor It has regulated
the hours of labor in accordance with
the wishes of those who earn their
bread by honest toll and has not beer
a tool for interpretations.
With such a desirable record why dc
the Republicans insist that it should
be buried.
They say that Silver is dead issue
and demand that the party which
fought the battles of the white meta
for years should be punished for it
work on behalf of the chief industry
on the State. the industry which the
Republican patty Of Nevada did it
best to kill.

Latest Of the .I4ed Line series sings
Praises of King Corn.

Some months ago F. D. Coburn,
secretary Of the Kansas state board OF
agriculture, While talking with
group of newspaper men. said:
when people talk of the products
of this state, they sing the virtues of
wheat. They exalt its values to the
skies Yes. it is great and means
much to Kansas. But the corn is
could lose our whole wheat crop and
corn would save us
He explained with further talk
and some figures in response to nat
ural explanations of surprise dropped
by his auditors Yesterday he issued
THE Corn Book" in the first section
of his report of the Kansas state
board of agriculture for the quarter
ending December, 1905. In it is an
Introductory message, in which Mr.
Coburn concisely yet clearly backs up
his point as follows:
THE fact that Kansas years ago un-
iInpeachably attained first place and
world wide fame as a producer of
wheat has from the first not un-
naturally had more or less the effect
of obscuring from those not keenly
observant the states pre-eminent
position in corn production. A result
of this is to incline those without
knowledge of the facts to the idea that
such bulk of wheat must be by far
the most important farm crop Kansas
farmers raise. Its fallacy is readily
exposed by statistics, which. entirely
impartial. reveal that, compared in i'm
portance and value with the corn.
wheat is a side issue, and one of vari-
Gus secondary items the worth of
which must be aggregated even to
approach the value of corn.
speaking in round numbers, the
state has in the last twenty years
raised about 5000 100000 bushels of
corn, worth on the farms where
grown over $S5O,0OO,0OO
In the ten years ending with 1904,
the value of Kansas corn crops was
06,000,000 more than that of the
wheat produced in the same period,
which included three of the states
largest wheat crops and one of the
/ smallest of corn. In the preceding
ten years, the corn crop was worth
nearly $500. 100000 more than the
wheat. The corn crop was worth over
100000 600 more than all other prod
ucts of the soil in 1902, and in two
preceding seasons corn outvalued all
other field products, wheat included.
1.-The value of the crop of 1902, from
only 8 per cent of the states area,
was sufficient to cover more than five
times the cost of the entire Louisiana
purchase, and nearly eleven times as
much as the United States paid for
Alaska, or three and One-half times
as much as was paid for the LIP, 600
square miles covered by these two
/ chases recorded in the worlds history.

/ her many cereals and the barometer
