FIRST GUN FIRED.
Senator Foraker Opens The
Debate on Rate Bill.

Washington, D. c. Mar. 5th.
Senator Tillman reported the
Hepburn railroad rate bill last
week aud now the fight is on in
the senate. a
Senator Foraker who is recog-
nized as the ablest opponent OF
government rate making, was
the first TO make set speech on
the bill in the Senate. He said
that Congress has not power to
make rates and predicted that
the Supre me Court will so hold if
the question ever goes before 1t.
Senator Foraker called atten-
ton 10 the fact that the Com nit
tee which recommended the Hep
burn bill to the House acknow-
lodged that it was unsatisfactory
even to those who de>ire rate leg
islation, and yet it was now
being demanded that the bill be
passed without amend ment. He
pre- dicted that such action
would be Disappointing to the
whole country as we'll as an abdi-
cation of Law making functions on
the part of the Senate.
THE gross revenues of the
roads are so closely calculated to
meet interest, dividend and
operating expenses" he said,
THAT a reduction of one mill on
the cost of Transporting ton of
freight per mile would 80 reduce
the aggregate as to make II inn
POSSIBLE for the roads TO pay one
dollar of dividends on their
stock; and a further reduction of
one and one half mills per ton
per mile would make it impossi-
BILE to pay one dollar of interest
on their bonded obligations"

Partisan correspondents have been
listening to some queer yarns told by
members of Sarah Beruha rdt's compa-
ny after their return from the United
States. One gentleman declared that
on the banks OF the Mississippi he saw
a child riding an alligator. In place
of whip the infant had long stick
with piece OF meat at the end of II,
which he held just in front Of the alli-
gators smile to induce him to hurry.
At Chattanooga the Inhabitants offered
to lynch a calored citizen If Sarah and
her troupe would wait and see it done.
At San Francisco one of the troupe had
q long talk with a young woman who
had been living on the top floor of q
hotel when the earthquake occurred.
The earth opened and swallowed up
all the hotel except the chimneys, and
it was through the. chimney of her
room that the young woman escaped.

HE SUCCEEDS PATTISON
Publishers Press1


Columbus, O., Aug. 21.-Congress-
man Harvey l.. CARRIER is the undis-
puted leader of the Ohio Democracy.
He proved his title to leadership
when he rode rough shod over Mayor
Tom Johnson, of Cleveland, in the
selection of the state central com
mittee. CARRIER controlled seventeen
of the twenty one votes, and tomor-
row will be reelected chairman OF
the state executive committee.
Last year John NJ Pattison became
the leader by virtue of defeating the
bosses of the big cities by calling to
his aid the rural Democrats of the
state winning the gubernatorial nom
ination and subsequently election.
Pattison's long illness and death gave
to CARRIER, his first lieutenant, the OPP
portunity to build a machine through
state paronage, and using the dead
leaders name and principles, to draw
to his side the same elements that
gave to the governor his office.
Mayor Tom Johnson took defeat
gamely. and intimated that the time
was not far distant when he would
make another fight for the leader
ship.

RELIGIOUS SPIRIT GOOD
MEMBERS OF THE CHURCH HOW
EVER FEEL THAT THEY ARE
DOING WRONG IN ADOPTING
PRESENT DAY CHARACTERS
TICS.

The discussion of the Estate OF So
ciety" which held he attention of the
Friends of Indiana Yearly Meeting
yesterday, brought out the fact that
there is feeling uppermost in the
minds of many members of the
church, that the progressive spirit
which is manifesting itself in every
walk of life is to some extent at
least, responsible for refrigeration in
the Friends church. Modern fancies
of speech and dress it was declared,
have had baneful influence on some
of the most cherished customs of the
original Quakers which it was intend
ed should be perpetuated. Instead of
emulating the old-time Quakers and
preserving the chief characteristics
of speech and dress, which were par
ticularly distinguishing to this sect
a few decades ago, there is a growing
tendency among younger genera
tion to become modernized. The drop
ping of the thee and thou among
many members was regarded as GER
tain indication of the delcine in the
scriptural usage of the pronouns. The
calling of the days of the week
Monday, Tuesday, etc" was also de-
plored, because of the original
Friends designated the week days
by numerals, Sunday being First
day, Monday, Second day and so on
down the list. 1t was also noted by
some of the Friends that the dispo-
sition to conform to so-called styles
in dress, was not in accordance with
the original conception of the church.
The traditional piety of the Quaker.
it was contended, should be reflect
ed in the dress as we'll as in the de-
meanor of the members.
Other facts brought out in the read
ing of answers to queries indicated
that as whole the society is dill
gent in the attendance at meetings
and devotional solemnity is well

The OLD SANTA Fe Trail.

The old Santa Fe trail is to be
marked this. sunNer. The school chill
dren of Kansas have contributed near
~ So, 100 to buy markers for the route.
The trail dates from 1910, but was
chiefly used in the building up Of the
southwest. The distance from Kansas
City to Santa Fee was 800 miles, and a
round trip consumed about 10 days.
Day and night in all seasons the cara
vans pushed their way. In spite of
strong military escort the trail was
blood soaked for many years and was
marked by hundreds of graves of the
victims of the murderous Apaches and
other tribes. Nearly every mile OF the
trail has had its ambush, its surprise,
it's attack and torture. The last wagons
were sent out in 1866. Since then the
trail has been memory.

Peoria, H., ug 21-Roger SuIn-
van of Chicago, is indicated. BY a
vote of almost two to one the friends
of the man who dared to disobey Bry-
an, tabled the resolution which called
for his resignation from the democrat
ic national committee. 1t was a di-
rect question of Bryan against Sulli-
van and the answer was just as direct
In impassioned language Judge
Thompson and Congressman Rainey,
the fathers of the movement to unseat
Sullivan, told the delegates that it
was not a question of Sullivan'S fit
ness; it was not a question of their
friendship; it was simply complying
with the strong request, almost the
demand of the peerless leader" The
delegates howled and yelled and boot
ed when the platform was occupied
by those who favored the resolution;
they yelled and cheered and threw
hats in the air when Sullivan's sup
porters were fighting the resolution;
they nearly went crazy when Sullivan
HlnlSe1I arose 10 answer tuo charges
against him.
But with all that the convention
passed resolutions indorSing Bryan
for the next presidential nomination,
resolutions couched in as laudatory
language as his best friends could
wish. And they cheered Bryan's
name to the echo when they passes
them.
