in the Congress of the United states, and I voted, and I stand by that vote today, that the people of the United States, through the Interstate Com merce Commission, should hear evil dence and pass upon the question of rates. and for that reason I voted for bill to strengthen the arm of the Interstate Commerce Commission, and give 1t authority, but that bill provided that the reasonableness of any rate nxed by the Commission should be uetermin- ed in court of competent Jurisdiction, and that they should be suspended during an investigation. provided the
 judge hearing the motion thought that the case was made out. Every State in the Union, including Alabama. at the first session of the present Legis- lature, recognized that right in It's statutes, with, so far as l am advised. the single exception of the State of Arkansas. presided over by Jeffiries Davis. and not Jefferson Davis, and l believe it remained for the three Gov ernors, Glenn of North Carolina, Hoke Smith of Georgia and Conner of Alaba- ma, to be the only other persons In au- thority on the face of the civilized earth to assert the proposition that IL is treason in a free country to test the question of whether rate propos- ed is fair or unfair, in judicial pro- ceeding.
 Now, l say I admit the right Of the State to be heard, but corresponding to that right, and inseparable from it, is the right of the railroad compa- ny which has paid for the property and done the hauling. to be heard also. If the State has the right to propose, then the railroad has the right to ac- cept or decline If 1t says that it will accept. then it is all right. If 1t says it will decline then the courts or the country must decide between the two.
 And when Governor Conner said in his Tuscaloosa speech that the rights of the people and the railroads should be made mutual and both have hear ing, he was right. But. when he comes now and says, and this Is the substance

Toledo, 12; Elk City, 1.

That's about all there is to this little
incident in baseball history. The Elk
City team came to Toledo last SUNDAY
full of hope and went home full of
goose eggs. In the fourth act Parks
came through with the visitors only
counter. For six innings it was good
ball, the score standing 2 to | in favor of
Toledo. Then Elk City went to pieces,
while Toledo got busy, adding in the
seventh, 3 in the eighth and in the
ninth. The Elk City boys can put up
a pretty good game, but some of them
are apt to get ratified at critical points.
All they need is little nerve tonic
not the liquid brand, either.

A Sad Accident.

Mrs. D. NJ. Grenache arrived Mon.
day evening from North Yakima, Wash.
to visit during the summer with her
parents, Mr. and Mrs. w. H. Vertner,
at their home near Toledo, on Olalla

hour after their arrival Mrs. Grenache's
two year-old son, David, was drowned.
The little fellow had accompanied his
brother Harry, aged 10, to the boat
landing near the Vertner home./ He
stumbled over an obstruction and fell
into the water. Harry tried to rescue
the child, but, being unable to swim.
was unsuccessful, barely escaping from
the water with his own life. w. II.
Vertner, the childs grandfather, next
made the attempt, with the same re-
suit. The latter's son Charles then
jumped into the stream, but was nearly
drowned, his father succeeding in get
ting rope to him, which he seized
while under water. The child'SD body
was recovered about four hours after
ward by Ed Altree, who assisted in
dragging the stream.
The funeral service, conducted by
Rev. Ellsworth, was held at the Vertner
home at 8 O'Clock this morning, fol-
lowed by interment in Toledo cemetery.
David Grenache, father of the child,
and Mrs. R. l. Farrell, daughter of
MIR. and Mrs. W. H. Vertner, arrived
last evening.

Another chapter was added to the

noon when Attorney Ed Thomas and

the trial of the suit instituted by
Hawley In the federal court, filed a
suit in the McCracken county circuit
court for w. w. Meadows against

on the grounds that Hawley alien
ated the affections of Meadows wife.
The petition recites that Meadows
was married to his wife in 1891 and
that they lived together in peace
and happiness until Hawley entered
the home and "unlawfully, wickedly
and designedly began TO and did
give his attentions to said wife and
did WOO and make love to her.
The petition charges that Hawley
persuaded Mrs. Meadows to leave
her home and enter a suit for divorce
and alimony.
