MUST PROTECT THE PEOPLE

When the insurance scandals
were disclosed to the public and
after the first shock had worn
away the claim was made that
great injury had been done need
lessly, and that the reports were
exaggerated and unnecessarily SEN
sational. It is now argued that
the packing house revelations,
while resulting in good, might
have been made in a manner that
would have brought less injury to
great interests in which many in
nocent people are involved.
We cannot see that the offend
ing packers are deserving of any
sympathy. If stock raisers are in
jured that is unfortunate.
But the great purchasing public
is entitled to some consideration.
The people are entitled to know
the truth. They should not be
kept In ignorance or imposed on
in order that the offenders may be
shielded or that innocent people
may suffer to some extent through
reduced prices or shortened sales.
The beef business, which consti
tutes about 80 per cent. of the en-
tire industry, has been damaged
by the reports, but there are no
criticisms of methods in that
branch of the business, and this
fact will soon be widely known.
The innocent should not be
classed with the guilty. The Of
tenders should be known and the
innocent exonerated. The people
want to know what to buy and
what not to buy. Wherever there
is fraud or imposition or unclean-
illness or rottenness or dishonesty,
let it be exposed. Let it not be
covered up or shielded for fear
somebody will be injured. Some
body ought ty be injured land pun
ashed.

poPuLlsrs TO HAVE a TICKET

The democratic nominees for gov
ernor and statehouse officers may
count upon determined opposition
from the populists in the STATE
election. The party is as virile
and active today as at any time in
its history and, seeing an oppor-
tunity this year to give the demo
Gratis of Georgia lively tussel they
are going to brandish their toma
hawks as of yore. At the meeting
of the populist state executive
committee in Atlanta two days ago
it was determined to call a state
convention of populists, to be held
in Atlanta onJuly 4th, when full
ticket for governor and all state
house officers will be nominated.
Chairman Holloway will issue his
call for the convention and the adj
dress to the voters of the state pro-
vided for in the resolutions, with
in the next few days. The dele
gates to the convention will be Sc
lected by the populists in each
county in the manner they deem
proper, each county to have twice
as many delegates in the conven-
ton as it has representatives in
the general assembly. Several
speeches were made in favor of a
state convention and a state ticket
on the ground that the populists
of Georgia should maintain their
state organization. 1t was urged
that the pOpulist party through
out the entire country was looking
to Georgia to stand by the party
in its work, and the campaign
which it proposes to make, and
that the Georgia pOpulists could
not afford to disband and give up
their organization.

Customs Controversy Closed.

New York, June 15-The contro-
versy between Mrs. r. H. Mitchell
Of Cincinnati, and the local customs
officials closed Thursday when the
board of United States appraisers
decided that not only must full duty
be paid on her sealskin coat, sent
abroad for repairs, but on the value
of the repairs themselves. Mrs Mitch
ell bought the coat in Cincinnati in
1891 1t was sent to her in Paris in
March 1905 where certain alterations
were made, including the addition of
a chincilla collar and revers to the
garment Mrs Mitchell brought the
coat to this country last September
Although a certificate of expectation
was obtained, when the coat was sent
to Paris, Collector Stranahan demand
ed duty on the altered coat and the
value of the repairs.

STILL THE BRYAN WAVE ROLLS

That the great democratic tide
is now running towards William
j. Bryan is evident to all obserV-
ers; and just now it would seem
that he will be made the,democratlc
candidate for President in 1908 by
reclamation. Democrats every
where are declaring for him. State
conventions are so declaring and
among his present staunchest, ar
dent supporters are those who OPP
posed him strongly in 1896, and
again in 1900. Such men as David
r. Francis and W. f. Villas, both
of whom were in Mr.. Cleveland IS
Cabinet, have declared for Mr..
Bryan and we notice that a tremen-
deus Bryan demonstration to be
presided over by Grover Cleveland
is soon to be held in New York.
Michigan, Missouri, Ohio, Indiana
Idaho, have all declared for Bry-
an and it is safe to say that other
states will soon follow their exam
pie. Hence it seems that no 9th
er name than Bryan's will be pre-
scented in the democratic cOnVen-
ton of 1908. Besides this, the
party will be united on him and
he will be handicapped by no side
issues or obsolete questions. There
will be no difference, no splits in
the democratic party in 1908. On
the contrary the party will present
a solid front in support of William
Jennings Bryan. At all events
that is the way things look now.

Washington, June 15.-The complete
records of rife, pistol and carbine fir
ing of the United States army for
1905, which have just been published
show Abraham Hill, a sergeant in the
Twenty-fourth infantry, stationed in
the Department of Dakota, to be the
best shot in the army. The percen-
tage of possible shots by him in slow
fire, timed fire and skirmish fire was
1888. The three others at the head

COMMISSION WINS RATE CASE.
Power To Make Rates Upheld BY
Judge PendIeton.

Power To Make Rates Upheld by
Judge Pendeton.
Atlanta, June 15.-The legality and
constitutionality of the act of the
state railroad commission in reducing
the freight rates on stoves to com
mon points in the state, has been up
held by the superior court of Fulton
county.
Judge Pendleton has decided that
the mandamus absolute as prayed fol-
by the Atlanta Stove Works against
the Atlanta and West Point railroad
the Georgia railroad, and the Southern
railway, the Seaboard Air Line and
the Western and Atlantic railroad be
granted, compelling these roads to
accept shipments at the rates pre-,
scribed in circular No 309 This
circular transferred stoves from the
second class to the sixth, and reduced
the freight rate from 40 to so per
cent.
The effect of the decision is far
reaching, and is notable victory, in
that it is declared that the action of
the commission in determining what
were just and reasonable rates could
not be challenged in the courts unless
the rates fixed by the commission
were so low as to amount to the con
fiscation, with respect to the entire
business of the roads within the state.
The decision further upheld the
right of the commission to make com
| modify rates applicable between what
| is known as common points where two
or more railroads afford competition
| although one of the contentious of the
roads was that this was an unjust
discrimination against other points in
the state.

At the recent sale of horses in WAL

to be an excellent Judge of horse flesh,
purchased fast going PAGER for DR..
Scott and DR.. Tetreau of this city.
The price paid for the animal is sup
posed to be $1,000. The horse was en-
tered in race but was purchased
before the race came off, He was not
scratched, however and was driven in
the winner in 2:13 fiat. Had it not
been for the fact that the horse had
been previously purchased for the
price stated above it never could have
been bought at those figures.
Drs. Scott and Tetreau will not en-
ter their PAGER on the tract next fall.
He is large iron grey animal. hand

SOW SECTION TO TURKEY RED.
Jap Scott To Make New Departure In
Wheat GROWING.

Jap Scott, the well known Dry Creek
farmer, will adopt new methods in
wheat growing next year by seeding
one section of land to turkey red
wheat. Mr.. Scott, who was in Walla
Walla today, stated that he would
commence tomorrow seeding two Sec
tions Of land northwest of Walla Wal
la.
My blue stem crop has been frozen
out three times within the past five
years and am going to seed one Sec
ton to turkey red," he said this
morning. II find that turkey red
produces about 10 bushels to the acre
more than blue stem and is not so
susceptible to frosts. Turkey red
commands as good a price as blue stem
and this year several lots sold for two
or three cents more per bushel than
blue STEM"
Mr.. Scott will put four drills to work
and expects to seed down about 80
acres a day.
