Interstate Commission Says Action
of Adams Express Co. Is
Unprecedented

WASHINGTON, June 21.-Inter.
state commerce commissioners were
amazed yesterday when they read OF
| the Adams Express cOmpany's pro-
posal to tissue an interest-bearine
! bond dividend of 200 per cent
First, because the officials of the
company thus publicly advertise that
they have a large surplus on hand
and. second, that they propose tC
distribute the surplus in such a
manner that future generations will
be asked to pay rates high enough
to pay the interest charges on divi
dends.
Choose Nest Offensive Way
AS individuals, commissioners
talked about the effrontery of the ex-
press company officials in making
such a proposal Officially they con-
sidered it their duty to say nothing,
because they will be called upon to
pass upon the question of whethe.
rates on express business are too
high.
The general view among them is
that the express company officials
tribute their surplus.
Verse Than Hartman
AS outlined in the press reports
they are not pretending to be issuing
bonds to make 'betterments" or in
crease the equipment of the com
pany. They are proposing to dis
tribute a large surplus in such form
that, in the future, they will be able
to charge rates high enough to pay
interest on a long-paid interest.
The proposal is regarded more OBJ
noxious than anything Hartman
ever did Or proposed to do.
Reason for Action
1t is believed that the determina-
| tion of the company's officers tic
make the surplus division in the way
proposed is prompted by the knOwl-
edge that on July l the commission
will put into effect the uniform book
keeping system devised by Prof. Hen
ry Adams, which will classify the
charges that may be made against
| capital account, operating expenses
and maintenance of way After the
| beginning of July, such a charge
purpose of distributing a surplus
would not be permitted to pass with.

Tried and Couldn't.

About nine a. M today a spirited
bucking exhibition took place on We
natchee avenue, in front of the First
National bank. A man riding a
young and foolish horse afforded en-
tertainment for spectators with a
fine Buffalo Bill performance The
obstinate animal bucked and squirm-
ed, bounced and twisted, but the
rider kept his seat and finally rode
away in triumph.

Extracts from sermon preached at
the Presbyterian church, Sunday,
June %, 1907, by Rev. John w. Ber-
ger.
From the Morning Sermon.
Religion is the regulation of the
life through the idea of God. 1t is
the application to all things and to
all events of all that is contained in
the great moral, spiritual, ethical
and rational elements contained in
the idea of God.
The message we have to give to
Africa, Asia, to China and the isles
or the sea is that we have found the
Christ. That We think we have
found the Christ; that courage, that
patience, that self-sacrifice, that her.
oism and that unbounded mercy and
love which lranscends all the ideals
written by the pen of the poet,
painted by the brush of the artist
or craven into the history of the
race"
From the Evening Sermon.
"Who are responsible for the lax
ity of morals in our city? Who are to
be censured for lax ideas of home
life? If the moral conditions are
such as the newspapers and police
officials have us believe, who
are to blame? In the first
place. many of our citizens,
whose only apparent aim in
life is the making of money. We have
not one word to say against the
making of money honestly. Every
man should seek to make money
honestly and the more he makes the
greater should be his return to God
and man. There are men however,
in this community-in every COM
munity-who saps the life of the
community, parasites on the body
polite, men who live to make gain
for themselves, who are examples of
monstrous selfishness. Bring to them
a subscription paper for some worthy
charity or some institution that fos-
tiers true manhood and noble woman
hood, and they frown upon it. They
are moral towards, their only policy
in matters public and private is the
advancement of their own selfish in
terests. They are conscious of viola
tions of law, and are either partners
to the violation or fearful that they
will jeopardize their business inter-
ests if they take a stand against the
wreckers of our laws and homes. On
the same plane and equally liable is
the fashionable society. We have
not one word to say against true.
noble society or one word against
manners. Every man and woman
should possess the manners of a
gentleman or gentlewoman. But the
woman who lives only for society,
for balls, theaters, card parties,

The strike in Chicago grows uit of a
quarrel between a telegraph operator in
Los Angeles and woman telegraph op-
orator in Oakland, Cal. The operator in
Los Angeles was discharged. The men
in Los Angeles Office claimed that the dis
charge was grossly unjust, and demanded
his reinstatement. The manager refused
to renstate the man and refused to treat
with the grievance committee. A strike
was ordered.

Messages to the union chiefs indi-
Gated that the men were straining at
the leash and eager for trivial excuse
to plunge into the combat. More trOu-
bic was added to the many complica-
tions besctting operators at work by
the tacit connivance of railroad tele-
grapherS at the strike of the CONNER
cial men. At points where there are
switchbOardS controlling the CONNER
cial wires the railroad men pull out
the plugs interfering with the working
of the wire Eagerncss to join in the
tumult. with or without excuse, seems
the paramount desire of each tele-
grapher. Only the admOnitiOns of the
union officials it is declared have thus
far restrained the men who still are
working the telegraph keys in many Of
the cities unaffected by the strike wave.

The history OF many race may be
read in its battle cry. The ''BanZai J"
of the japanese. the "Faghaghballah !"
of the Irish, and our own "Hurrah! :"
have found their origin far back in
history.
Although many authorities have de-
clared that the word "hurrah" is de-
yelopment of the Jewish "HOsannah,"
the consensus Of opinion now is that 1t
is corruption of the ancient battle
cry of the wild Norsemen, 'Tur aie!"
meaning, Thor aid u.s." Formerly the
word was spelled "Huzza" and pro-
nounced "Hurray." In one form or
another it is used by almost every
nation.

leased wires were working when the
operators employed by the Western
Union Telegraph Company in Chicago

Thursday the industry Of the entire
country was affected. The men quit
work after voting sympathetic strike
to aid the Los Angeles operators, who
struck twenty-four hours earlier. Their
immediate reason was that the COM

on Los Angeles wires with strike break
ing operators at the western end.
Operators have been called In from
the smaller towns and cities and there
