ember 26, 1905, to Jose Revara, her
first husband being alive at the time.
Hose Revara, the above lady's sec
ond husband, is also indicted, the
charge against him being one Of adul.
terry.
The third Indictment was against
Olivia Moreno. II Is shown that this
lady committed bigamy by marrying
both Francisco Hortez and Joe Cahina,
the former on October Z, 1902, and, the
latter December ~, 1908. w

THE RAILROAD REBATE BILL

Full detail of the passage Of the
railroad rebate bill in the House OF
Representatives shows that the meas
ure sent on to the Senate was as nearly
non-partizan as II is possible for a
Congressional act to be. Those who
voted against It were headed by Con-
gressman Littlefeld of Maine a man
of strong ideas, clear thought, positive
in his convictions of right and wrong.
and one who would stand out against
the whole country regardless of re-
suits to himself If measure for which
he was called upon to vote did not
possess that perfection which his care
full study indicated was necessary 70
its practical usefulness.
The point at issue between the par
tizans simmered down to a definition of
reasonable and unreasonable rates.
The Democrats demanded more exact
wording and gained their point with
the result of the overwhelming mai
GRITTY.
As outlined in the Associated Press
reports on the day of passage, the bill.
according to Hepburn's statement in
closing the debate on the measure, was
intended to and did, so far as II could
be made to. comply specifically with
the accommodation of President
Roosevelt on the rate question. II gives
the Interstate Commerce Commission
authority, when a rate has been COM
planned OF as unreasonable" by Il
shipper. 10 investigate that rate, state
whether or not It is unreasonable, and,
Il found to be unreasonable. to name a
rate which is just and reasonable and
fairly remunerative, which is to be the
maximum rate to be charged.
This rate, so fixed. is to go into Of
| feet thirty days after II is announced
by the commission, subject during tina,
time to be set aside or suspended by
the commission or by the courts. After
| II has gone into effect II is to remain
the rate for three years. During this
time, the opinion has been expressed
by those who have participated in the
debate. the rate may also be reviewed
by the. courts, and. II found to be IN

net or with the constitution by being

courts.
Another important feature Is the

At the Oceanic Steamship wharf a

Give Dole
MOREOVER

Judge Dole and District Attorney
Breckons have received from the At
torney Generals department in WASH
ington copies of a bill. which had been
introduced in Congress, by which the
local United States District Court is
given original jurisdiction in cases
when one of the parties is a citizen of
another Territory or State. and when
the amount involved exceeds $4,000.
The law, as II is at present, gives
the United States District Courts orig
inal jurisdiction In such cases as are
mentioned in the bill, . said Judge Dole
when interviewed about the matter.
The law does not. however, mention
territories and for this reason several
Federal decisions have held that Dis
trict Courts in Territories have no
such Jurisdiction. In making tho
amendment giving this court jurisdic-
ton In these cases, II is only being
given The power, which 1t ought to
have.
Acting United States Attorney Cen
eral Purdy has written me from Wash.
ington asking how much the business
OF my court would be increased by the
change. or course to make an estimate
in a matter OF this kind would simply
be more or less guess work. However.
| am writing in reply that with the
limit fixed SO high It is not probable
that much additional work will be
caused by the change"
