If 1t is true that only per cent
of the freight carried by the Oregon
Short Line is strictly state traffic,
or traffic oyer which railroad COM
mission would have jurisdiction,
would o commission, at an annual
expense to the state of at least $780,
900, be able to save the people that
amount in freight rates9 If idaho
had a net work of railroads and the
traffic carried by them was largely

flash seemed to have started languidly
placed her hand to her throat and said
to gentleman at her side:

The gold fastening of diamond
necklace she wore had parted, and
the string of gems, probably score
of them, worth $4,000 or more, had
fallen into the lap of lady in an
orchestra seat and thence to the floor.
The gentleman in the box, when the
situation was explained, calmly arose,
stepped to the rear, called an usher
and whispered some instructions to
him.
In the meantime the lady upon
whom the string of diamonds had de.
scended was following the perform.

To her came the usher, after an ap.
propriate interval. He inquired in a
whisper If anything had dropped from
the boxes. The lady drew aside her
skirt and pointed to the necklace on
the floor. The usher picked it up. car.

The ease with which men change
their minds upon public questions
is forcibly brought to light by the
action of the Weiser Commercial
Club. About a week ago the club
held meeting at which the question
of a railroad commission for Idaho
was thoroughly discussed and the
bright minds there assembled all
agreed that such a commission was
the only cure for the countless ills
that the people now have laid up
against the railroad company. Ac-
cordingly resolution was passed
favoring the establishment of rail-
road commission in Idaho. In a
few days afterwards these same men
Topped over the fence and declared
that they had looked at the question
from the wrong point of view. The

THE ANTI-PASS QUESTION.

AOOuC the quickest anu Dest way
for the Idaho solons to put an end
to the agitation over the anti pass
bill now before the Legislature,
would be for them to enact a meas
nre COMPELLING railroads to furnish
all state and county officials with
annual passes. Now that may seem
to be absurd TO many but really we
think it would be the most sensible
way of settling the question. II
would be going directly contrary to
the plank in the state platform, but
if such a law was enacted, before
the time comes for adopting another
platform the wisdom of this law
would become so firmly established
in the minds of everybody that even
our democratic friends would be
compelled to "point with pride" to
this wise and judicious legislation
enacted by republican legislature.
With a law compelling railroad
companies to give annual passes to
members of the Legislature, state
and county officials, these officials
would be under no obligations,
whatever, to the railroad companies,
for passes would then, in no sense,
be looked upon as favors, and the
people could never say that the acts
of Legislators or state officials were
influenced by the fact that these
officials rode on passes. Then such
q law would save the state Thousands
of dollars annually which must b.
paid to officials whose duties require
them to travel about the state, j
they are compelled to pay railroad
fare. With passes prohibited, yo'
must either raise the salaries or pro
vide sufficient sum for travelling
expenses. The people do not ex
pect that sheriff, who is called W
on to make trip to some distan
part of HIS state to secure crimina
shall pay his railroad fare out of hi
salary. Suppose the sheriff of thi
county was called upon to 60
Lewiston after man who had con
mitted q crime here and was arrest
ed there, his railroad fare alon
would consume about one-tenth {
his salary. Under those condition
we imagine that the Office wonl
have hard time seeking competer
men to fill it. Many of these RI
form measures sound mighty plea
ing to the public ear, but when the
are studied more thoroughly Il
real merit in them is found to be (
little that they are quickly repeale
If an anti-pass bill is enacted |
this legislature the people two yea
hence will be bowling themselv
hoarse about the awful expense tt
present county and state admin
trations have incurred. In a
seriousness, we believe the enao
ment of law compelling the GYM
of passes to county and state officia
would be the easiest and best VIZ
of settling this question: won
certainly result in great saving
the people.

wv. Barne, who was pinned in the wreck
was the only person seriously injured as
the result OF the telescoping yesterday at
the mouth OF the Breval tunnel Just be-
yond Nantes, OF the rear coach OF the
special train from Paris carrying passen-
gers for the Adriatic. Miss Haskell. who
suffered greatly from shock, was taken
on board the Adriatic on a stretcher. The
exact nature OF her injuries had not been
determined when the steamer sailed.
Mr.. Martin added that the injuries sus-
tained by dozen other passengers were
hardly worth mentioning, consisting of
scratches and bruises. He explained that
the escape of those In the rear car was
due to the fact that they went forward
when the train stepped and besides In the
rear of the last car there was closet
with corridor. which lessened the sever
ity OF the shock.
