slavement OF people is wrong that
cannot endure.
THE second lesson I'm our story Is that
the signs of the times must be needed
by all. The great calamity that assailed
Pharaoh and his land was but the cul-
mination of a series OF warnings which

permanently continue his career of mis-
rule and misapplied authority. Sooner or
later the worm will turn. sooner or later
the warnings OF the age will burst forth
In a tempestuous torrent, overwhelming
the oppressor once and for all. He who
falls to heed these warnings, he who mis-.
interprets the signs of the times, will
have himself alone to blame when the
impending wrath breaks loose
'''The wrong OF such conduct we admit
with reference TO actual slavery. but fail
TO admit with reference TO other situa-

FOR LOWER
FREIGHT RATE
Southern Idaho Will Urge
Passage of Hepburn
Resolution

BOISE, Oct. ia memorial resolu-
tion to be signed by all the CONNER
cial clubs of southern Idaho, will be
presented at the session of the Sixtieth
congress-, says the Capial News, re-
questing the adoption of Senator w.
regulating freight charges made by
railroads.
This is but an initiative that Idaho
is taking in the matter on account of
our senator introducing the amend
ment," said c. R. Shaw, chairman of
the traffic committee of the Southern
Idaho League of Commercial Clubs,
land it is our intention to take the
matter up with all the principale cities
west of the Mississippi river with the
cannot expect to cooperate with us,
as they are getting the benefit of the
discrimination in freight rates"
Senator Hepburn will probably be
asked to prepare the memorial resolu-
ton, as he has been one of the active
proponents of the amendment Copies
of the resolution will then be made and
sent TO all the clubs in southern Idaho
for their approval before taking the
matter up with the Outside states and
securing their assistance. The amend
ment presented by Senator Hepburn at
the last session of congress is to the
effect that no railroad or corporation
shall charge more for short haul
than for long haul.
After the league of southern Idaho
clubs has approved the memorial re-
uuesting the adoption of this amend
ment. the matter will be taken up with
Utah. Wyoming, Montana, Nevada,
Arizona, and in fact with all of the
principal cities of the states west OF
the Mississippi river. A copy of the
resolution will be mailed to the com
mercial clubs of the prime pal cities OF
each state with the request to nave
comics made and sent out to the other
clubs in the state.
The amendment is one that is of
vital interest to every city west OF
the Mississippi river, with the excep-
ton, of course, of the coast cities, and
it is the intention of the committee
on traffic of the Southern League OF
Idaho clubs to actively and clearly
present the need of passing the amand-
ment so that by concerted action on
the parts of all the states and cities
affected by the discrimination in
freight rates the passage of the
amendment may be had at the sixtieth
session of congress
