Rebaters Get Heavy Penalties.

WASHINGTON, D. c., June 10
President Roosevelt and Attorney Cen
eral Moody are now taking steps to
give several of the leading railroad
lines an example of what can be done
in the way of heavy punishment for
violating the anti-rebate law.
While neither the department of JUS
tice nor the chief executive has any
power to impose fines, they believe
that by a rigid enforcement of the Ell
kins anti-rebate law four or five rail-
roads can be forced to pay fines
amounting to $1,000000 in the case of
each road If this can be done the
lesson taught the chief offenders will,
it is believed by the president. deter
the roads from violating the law.
Several of the roads have been sys-
tematically discriminating in favor of
the Standard Oil company. In the
case of the Burlington, the Alton and
the Chicago and Eastern Illinois, this
practice has been followed for years.
Each rebate granted constitutes sep
arate offense and the department has
evidence which shows that 1000 cases
of rebating can be proved against one
road
Recently the Burlington was fined
100000 for granting rebates, and if
fines of this size are imposed in the
future the administration will have
little difficulty in making a showing
in the courts which will enable the
federal judges to impose fines aggre-
eating a million dollars each In the
case of four or five roads. The Offic-
| ials of the department Of justice will
not state which roads will be select
ed for heavy punishment.

both organizations. 1t is located on
the steel pier and is attracting consid-
cradle attention. The attendance at
the Master Car Builders convention is
unusually large and nearly reaches

IOWA FALLS, Iowa, June 13.-Ev-
erything came his woy Saturday, when
a pair of twin boys arrived at the
home of Thomas Walsh in this city,
and was quickly followed by an ov-
erwhelming victory at the polls, giving
him the republican nomination for
sheriff by a majority of two to one
over his opponent The advent of the
twins was regarded by his friends as
a fOrerunner of success in his race for
sheriff, which was in full blast when
the increase in his family arrived.
The result of the republican primary
Saturday, in addition to the nominal
ton of Mr. Walsh, was a decisive one
for the win 1ers, each securing the
nomination by a majority of from 300

State Railway Commission Announ-
ces Changes in Plans
RELATIVE TO RECIPROCAL DEMuRRAGE
LUMBERMEN MADE A STRONG
PROTEST WHICH WAS FAV-
ORED BY THE BOARD.

Having concluded that their prOpO-
sal to enforce a reciprocal demurrage
dule in this state would probably do
much more harm than good, the rail-
road commissioners will very likely try
to forget it for a few months, is the
report that comes from Olympia.
Without specific demand from any
one for such a rule the commissioners
have been making arrangements to
promulgate it and it was only when
announcement of such intention was
made public that the effect of such
ruling came to the attention of the
board.
It has been pointed out that the
chief reason for such rule would De
to REQUIRE the railroads to furnish
cars for lumber shipments. But the
lumbermen came promptly to the fore
with the announcement that they had
not asked for such a rule.
little study has disclosed that
such a rule would be a positive injury
to the lumber interests. The state
commission cannot establish dehur-
rage with respect to interstate SNIP
ments. and the bulk of the lumper
fra re is interstate. So if the rule was
made it would apply only within thls
state and all other shippers would De
able to enforce the rule to their per-
sora, benefit and against the inter-
state traffic of the lumbermen.
Reciprocal demurrage has peen pig
aonbo,ed so far as immediate action
by the commission is concerned.

People to Encourage Matrimony.
CHICAGO, June 13.-Every girl of
manageable age in Zion City is going
to have a beau of her own within two
weeks Overseer Voliva announced in
Shiloh tabernacle yesterday that he
would introduce the young couples
himself and do everything in his pow
er to ripen friendship into love and
courtship into matrimony.
With this end in view he is arrang-
ing for a monster party to be held
within the next two weeks, to which
every young man and woman in Zion
City will be invited.
Voliva's determination was brought
about by letter from young woman
in the congregation who complained
that while he advocated matrimony, he
had made no arrangements by which
the girls might meet the young men.
Voliva stated, too, that he had
changed his mind about leading the
people out of Zion in the event that
Dowie wins his suit for the recovery
of the city. Instead, he will remain
and fight the first apostle on his own
grounds. The plan is said to be a boy
colt of the interestes controlled by
Dowie, and the establishment OF new
industries to be financed by his fol-
lowers.

PACKING Don'ts.

Don't pack clothes in a trunk which
has not been used for some time with
out airing the latter; it may have
been lying in a damp corner.
Don't begin to pack before you have
collected together all the things re-

ment. be obliged to squeeze some heavy
article in the top of the trunk, and
thus crush lighter articles.
Don't forget that a dress bodice or
blouse must have the sleeves stuffed

trimmings, such as lace or chiffon
should be stuffed out with rolled-up
tissue paper; otherwise all the fresh

CUMMINS WE'LL IN LEAD.
Sardng of the Candidates in Iowa
Brought Up to Date.

SIOUX CITY, Iowa, June 13.@The
Standing of the republican candidates
for the republican nomination for gov
eu,r brought up to date, is as fol-
lows
Cummins 7O5. Perkins $50, Rathbun
g. contested so.
In this estimate Blackhawk county
is given to Cummins on the basis of
caucus returns, which seem to give
him the county beyond much doubt.
In all the others the result is def
nitely known.
There remains to act only fifteen of
the ninety-nine counties. These are
Jefferson. Lee, Scott, Buchanan, ALA
makee. Howard, Winneshick, Worth,
Jasper. Poweshiek, Marion. Dallas, Au-
dubon. Shelby and Carroll.
Subtracting the sixty contested dele
gates from the total it will be seen
that 791 delegates will be required to
control the convention for organiza-
ton. Therefore. CumminS, with 1O5
delegates. will require but So more to
control in organizing the convention.
But he may lose some 20 votes on
questions Of organization, so he must
have 10 more to be sure of winning.
There is now practically no question
that Cummins will have Dallas, scott,
Shelby Carroll and Winneshiek, with
80 delegates This does not take into
consideration Jasper Poweshlek,
Worth and Howard, where his chances
are better than those of Perkins.
on the other hand it is to be OBJ
served that Perkins still needs 252
b delegates to control in the organiza-
lion, whereas only 251 remain to be
chosen. So it can now be asserted
positively that Perkins cannot control

considerable wrangling from the be-
ginning. which eliminated in a general
mixup in the fourth, when Weiser's
first baseman, deputy sheriff of WASH

Hiued in by Weiser's manager, Sheriff
Landsor OF that place, and things were

There was a good sized crowd out

New Insect Problem.
CLINTON, Iowa, June 13.-Farmers
and horsemen of Eastern Iowa are
troubled by the appearance of multi
tudes of gnats, of a species never be-
fore seen in this section, which swarm
on stock, particularly on horses, and
drive the animals frantic. The insects
swarm into the ears of horses anG
burrow beneath the skin until the
animal is crazed With pain. A number
of horses in this vicinity have been
badly cut from contact with barbed
wire fences in their crazy flight.
The insects sometimes alight on the
breasts of the animals and dig under
their skin, entering in such numbers
that welts or ridges are raised on the
unfortunate animals. Local horsemen,
before turning their animals out to
nasture. have been either greasing the
ears or tying them up with netting
and mosquito bar. The plague seems
to extend over a wide area, complaints
coming from other counties along the
Mississippi.
