AIMED At STANDARD OIL
AMENDMENT TO RATE BILL
Senator Lodge Will Suggest That Oil
and Gas Lines Be Placed Under Su-
pervision Of Interstate Commerce
Commission.
Publishers PreSS1

Washington, D. c., May 2.-When
the consideration of amendments to
the railroad rate bill begins in the
Senate on Friday, the first amend
ment to be offered will be that intro
duced by Senator Lodge sometime ago,
putting oil and gas pipe lines under
the supervision of the Interstate Com
merce Commission. This, as was
noted at the time of its introduction,
is direct blow at the Standard Oil
company.
1t is now stated that President
Roosevelt is fastening the presenta-
ton to congress of the Garfield report
of the operations of the Standard on
company together with his accom-
panying message, so that they may be
in the possession of the Senate be-
fore it votes on the Lodge amend
ment, and may influence its adoption.

He Will Quit the Cabinet for
Supreme Bench in October
.- of This Year.
SUCCESSOR NOT CHOSEN
WHEN CHANGE Is MADE IT IS
VERY LIKELY THAT SEcRE-
TARY ROOT WILL TAKE UP
PANAMA CANAL MATTER.
Palladium Special.1


Indianapolis. Ind, May "A spec
ial to the News from Washington
says:
William Fl. Taft, Secretary of War,
will so on the Supreme bench in Oc-
tober. While no official announcement
of this decision of the Secretary to ac-
cept the place on the bench has been
made. 1t is now very well understood
that he has definitely made UP his
mind. Possibly the official announce
ment of the charge will not be made
until fall. Mr.. Taft, as Secretary of
War, has some important matters on
his hands, and Is anxious that the
judgeship shall be left in abeyance
until he has disposed of these sub
5ects.
1t has also practically been decided
that when Taft leaves the Cabinet the
Panama canal shall be turned over to
Elihu Root, Secretary of State. Mr..
Root is not anxious to take the canal
responsibility, but as he is the only
available man in sight for the great
work, the President will insist that he
shall turn his hand to it. No one Is
yet slated for Secretary of War to
succeed Mr.. Taft. With the canal
transferred to the State Department
It viii not be difficult. 1t is pointed out
to find an acceptable man for Secre-
tary of War. Some of Mr. NTaft's
friends have tried 70 persuade him
that he ought to stay in the Cabinet
and enter the race for the nomina-
tion for President, but his inclina-
tions are all toward the bench and he
intends to follow his bent.

PLAN FOR BETTER SERVICE
Dayton and Western May Put on
Special Car to New Paris on
Account Of Cedar Springs.

1t is reported that the Dayton &
Western will install new service on
the New Paris branch this week, on
account of the opening of the Cedar
Springs Hotel, on Friday. Instead of
having the through DaSton-Richmond
cars make the extra run of two miles
and back to Westville again, an inde-
pendent car will be put on the branch
line and will meet every car from
either direction, thus giving better
service. Faster time can then be made
between Dayton and Richmond by the
through cars.

Now Gov. Taylor has spoken twice
in this county, and gone his way; can
you recall, do you remember, did he
give one reason, why the Democracy
of Maury county should unseat Sena-
tor Carmack? II Taylor had the office
would he and his friends not insist,
and would he not have the right to
expect, the usual endorsement? Is
it fair to humiliate one tried and true
Democrat, just for the sake of graft
flying the ambition of another tried
and true Democrat? Is it right to do
wrong to one man, just to do favor
to another? Is not Mr.. Taylor ask
ing too much of his friends, when he
asks them to do another man wrong?
There is a moral obligation attach
ing to every mans ballot. We sub
NIT, in all honesty and candor, and
without any prejudice or favor, is it not
selfish and unreasonable, for any man
to ask the people of great State to
turn an honest and capable man out
of the highest Office in their gift, when
there is no issue between them, and
the only reason for the request is, Il
want the Office 1t is my ambition.
You must crafty it."

Taylor here on May Srd, in which the
article stated that "A mighty small
crowd greeted the Apostle of Sun
shine in the Phosphate City,h ana les
t'mating the number of visitors, at
aoout 700, a great injustice was done
the Ex-Governor as well as the read
ing public The report is so incor-
rect that it is not worthy of space in
an up-to-date newspaper. AS matter
of fact, many say that the crowd that
heard Mr.. Taylor was even larger
than the one which heard Mr.. Car
mack-the estimates ranging from
5000 to 5000. But conservative men
say that there was not very much diff
ference in the size of the crowds that
heard the two speakers, and this is
