press proceedings further.
The governor is not named, but every
one knows that his name is J. Frank
Hanly. who divides with Folk of Mis-
souri the honor OF being the most fear
less governor ia the nation.
Following Governor Hanley's sum-
mary removal OF Auditor 5herrick from
office for loaning state money to friends,
the governor discovered that the aes
counts of the secretary of state. Daniel
E. Storms. were not straight. He de-
manded Storms resignation just as he
had Sherrick's, but Storms fought back.
He insisted that he had done nothing.
and defed Governor Hanly to do any
thing about 1t anyway. But Hanly is a
man Of nerve himself, he hates graft,
and his highest ideal is to do his duty,
no matter what happens. So he insti-
tuted proceedings against Storms.
That happened some time ago but the
result is told in the brief dispatch this
week. Storms evidently asked that the
proceedings against him be dropped in
consideration of his resignation. Cow
ernor Hanly refused to stop the court
proceedings, 50 Storms resigned any
way.

Armour Grabs the RaiIroad,s Jos.

Armour went to many railroads and

showed in my last article what great
power Armour had over the railroads
through his ability to give or withhold
his enormous shipments of freight.
He pays over 100000 a week IN
freight at Chicago alone, and vast sums
elsewhere. BY giving his business to
one railroad and taking 1t away from
another he could almost make or ruin
the profits of the companies concerned.

that any shipper can own cars and

Armour says plausibly enough to his
rivals who complain:
Why don't you get your own cars
If you want to do business on an equal

But these competitors, even if they
bought cars, could not ship them over
the Pere Marquette railroad because
Armour had prevented the use Of any
cars but his own anywhere on that
railroad. And tn Pere Marquette was

other man there learned after three or

The idea Of cutting down passenger
rates is spreading all over the United
States. The Virginia legislat ure is fol-
lowing that of Ohio in forcing upon
the railroads a maximum rate of 2
cents a mile for passenger transporta-
ton. and a bill appears in the New
York legislature providing a = cent
rate on the more prosperous railroads.
This" says the Springfield Repub-
lican, Els significant of a prevailing
popular temper. 1t is pretty certain
that if rate control legislation fails at
Washington there viii follow an out
break Of state activity for the regula-
ton Of freight as well as passenger
rates. following the Wisconsin example.
State power in the matter of freight
control is more limited than in the
case of passenger rates. but its exer-
else within the limitation will unques-
tionably have a decided revival should
MISREPRESENTATION succeed in defeating
or emasculating an effective federal
measure"
Incidentally It might be remarked
that the next Kansas legislature will
very likely take steps to pass a measure
along the lines of the Pringle bill that
went down in the last legislature. This
will give Kansas a two-cent mile fare,
but it will also do away with all free
passes, so that the income to the rail-
roads from the same amount of travel
ought to be about as large as at pres
ent. The lower fare, too, viii probably
stimulate travel and thus actually in
crease the aggregate receipts.
There is a tremendous demand in
/ Kansas for some measure Of this kind,
and the legislature can hardly ignore.it.

nearly I, 800 feet below the level of the

salt of the Dead Sea has been collected
and brought to the Jerusalem market,
where it is used for curing hides and
for domestic purposes.
Dead Sea water contains over 20
per cent Of solid substances. of which
seven per cent is chloride of sodium,
or common salt. 1t is chloride Of mag
nesium which gives the water its hor-
