COMP ANIES CONFESS
TO DISCRIMINATION
Result of Express Investiqa-
ton Held by State Rail-
road Commission.
LIMITS ARE PRESCRIBED.
STATE LAW WITH REGARD TO
FREE DELIVERY WITHIN COR
PoRATIoNS IGNORED, 1T is AD-
MITTED.

Officials of the express companies
operating in Indiana admitted at the
hearing before the Indiana Railroad
commission at Indianapolis that dis
ordinations are made with reference
to deliveries in various Indiana cities
Determinations, they admitted, are
made not only between firms to which
commodities are delivered, but be-
tween cities as well.
1t was ascertained also that in sew
eral cities there are delivery limits
and that beyond these delivery limits
most of the companies refuse to
deliver packages except at the
expense of the consignee, notwith-
standing there is a state law which
requires free delivery to any and all
points within the corporate limits of
city or town having a population of
$500 or more.
F. G. Fargo, superintendent of the
American Express company, admitted
that his company was one of those
which prescribed a rule of limitation
to delivery territory. Mr.. Fargo was
followed by G. E. Curtis, superinten-
dent of the Adams Express company.
AS did other witnesses, Superinten-
dent Curtis said that his wagons de-
livered, only within prescribed limits.
However. he amended this statement
by SAYING that in Terre Haute and
Marion packages are delivered free to
any point within the corporate limits.
The reason for the observance of the
law in these cities, he said, was that
'the people severely criticised the
company there" and that ''the COM
pany was forced to do SO in order to
meet competition"
J. T. Daniels of st. Louis assistant
general superintendent of the Pacl-
fic Express company, said that his
company delivered only within its
prescribed limits and that packages
which went to parties outside these
limits were delivered by draymen,
hired at the consignee's expense. He
said that there were no cities of $500
population in which his company
made complete delivery.
Judge Wood, who has been conduct
ing the commissions investigation
from the start, announced that the in
quiry could not proceed until rate
sheets had been received from Virgin
ia, Georgia, North Carolina, Mississ
ippi, Texas, Louisiana and Ohio.
These, he said would be needed for
purposes of comparison.
1.-THE companies have failed to send
in the reports which the commission
will require annually, beginning with
this year." said Judge Wood, land
some of them state that they will reed
at least, thirty days more in which to
gather the required data. This in
quiry will, therefore, be continued un-
til about the 18th of October. Ten
days notice will be given"
Refuses to Reply.
The Adams Express company re-
fused to answer some of the interro-
sent out by the commission,
those which inquired into
the company's business outside of In
diana. The question of compelling
this company to answer these inter-
rogatories is now before the commits
sion.

STUDENTS At MARION
WILL PUBLISH PAPER
High School Has Decided Up
on This Course.
SUGGESTION TO RICHMOND.

A new publication will be launched
ing class which will receive diplomas
next January, has decided to issue a
journal. chronicling the happenings
in the school.
This decision was reached at meet
ing of the class at which time a COM
plete class organization was effected.
The editorial staff for the new publi-
cation has not yet been selected, but
this will be done at the next meeting
of the class. All the high school stu
dents have shown great interest in the
project and it is very probable that
the journal will be a permanent insti-
tuition in the high school, maintained
by each succeeding class.
The preceding clipping from the
Marion News-TribuDe will probably be
of interest to the seniors of the Rich
mond high school. The Marion SEN
iors have established precedent
which could be patterned after to good
advantage by the graduating classes
throughout the state The question of
school paper in the Richmond high
school should not sound discouraging
because the Argus was a fair example
of what the school can do. and was rec
ognized as one of the best high school
papers in the state.
Interest would be stimulated to
greater extent among the students ow
ing to the fact that they would look
forward to the year when they would
be seniors and eligible as members of
the editorial staff.

FRANCIS T. ROOTS OF CONNERS-

FOR THE UNITED STATES SEN
ATORSHIP.

indianapolis, Sept. 19.-Tha eyes of
the politicians are now on the Sixth
Congressional district. The "old
Burnt" promises. during the next six
months. to prove a clear title to its
reputation as hotbed of politics.
VIII A. Hough of Greenfield author

Greencastle and are both members Of

ETY..
A new name was sprung yesterday
for the Sixth district congressional
nomination Charles Jones of Brook
Vile is the latest addition to the list
of those mentioned. Mr. Jones is
widely known in political circles and
formerly represented the Sixth district
on the republican state committee. He
has for few years held position as
an attorney of the Spanish claims COM
mission in Washington. He secured
this office on the recommendation OF
Representative Watson. In converse
ton with those who talked with him
yesterday on the Sixth district con-
gressional situation Mr.. Watson en-
phasized his determination to keep out
of the fight W. o. Barnard of New
Castle. he says. has put him in nomina-
ton before every convention when he
has been a candidate for congress. Bar
rows, Moore and Jones had held posi-
lions in Washington upon his recon-
mendation and had made good He
and Hough are intimate friends and
tnere are ties of friendship and obi
cation binding him to every other man
He insists that in view OF
these circumstances it would be the
height of ingratitude and bad taste for
him to interfere.
Who Will Manage Campaign
Now that two candidates for Cover
nor-Miller and Watson-are formally
in the race there is much speculation
as to who will be. their political manag
ers. In recent years it has been the
custom of gubernatorial candidates in
Indiana to have managers While

be a very important campaign func-

SALARIES SHOULD Be RAISED.

The bill to raise the salaries OF
the Supreme Court Judges from
81, 900 to So, 900 is a move in the
right direction.
Everyone recognizes the i'm
perative Importance of securing
the highest legal talent in the
state for the Supreme Court bench.
The court of last resort, the court
that decides what is and what is
not good law, the court that final
ly settles great questions inyolv
ing property and life, should
embrace in its membership men
whose ability in the law is beyond
question. They should be recog
nized-by the legal fraternity as
men of the highest professional
standing whose decisions will
command universal respect and
confidence. The public generally
should feel that it has in the
Justices at Atlanta lawyers who
tower above the mass of the bar
through superior learning, as
well as by virture OF long expert
ence.
Heretofore the honor of serving
Georgia in this capacity has en-
abled the State to secure the
services of men of high calibre.
1t has been a distinct financial
sacrifice for many of the Justices
to serve the people instead of
themselves. Living in Atlanta is
expensive, aJnstice heSupreme
Court has obligations upon him
that must be met, and his mere
official position in itself often
tends to greatly increase his OUT
lays. Four thousand dollars is
small compensation for men OF the
ability and training that are re-
CURED for such positions. The
increase is demanded both by the
character of the services and by
the tremendous increase that has
come in personal expenses to every
man in Georgia.
1t is to be hoped that the Legis-
lature will pass the bill referred
to without a dissenting vote. II
is one measure that should enlist
the support of all Senators and
Representatives, and which wonld
command a universal suppor'
among the people at large.

there is grave danger that Mr..

Oyster Bay; but he has outgrown
that, and nothing short of the
circumnavigation of South Amer

So strongly had the theory and prac-

mention a single action that can per-
