The Greenville News has satis-
factorily explained why certain
'.ladies' were arrested in that
fair city forriding "man fashion"
Our contemporary says: "The two
females who were arrested in
Greenville were not ladies. They
were anything else. They were ar
arrested not solely for the reason
that they were violating any un-
written provincial law regulating
the style of riding on horseback
but on account of the disorderly
manner in which they conducted
themselves in the gaze Of the pub
lie" Let further criticism OF
Greenville be withheld. The proper
place for women who are "any-
thing else" but ladies is behind
the bars, and the city authorities
shouldbe commended for having

Chairman Knapp of the commission explained
today that IL would be necessary first 10

Once these principles aud similar ones were
decided upon. Chairman Knapp thought the
form OF the tariff could be worked out with
out serious diiculty.
The cling OF new tariffs with the commits
sion by the railroads involves not only vast
deal OF labor, but immense expense. Every
time a big system OF railroad changes its
tariff rates the expense aggregates between
$500 900 and $500 900. Naturally, therefore,
the railroads are particularly interested in

termined fully by the members ot the com
mission and the experts OF the railroads, no
