Roosebelt to Fight Obe7capitaAzati0n:

these lines when the rate bill was up.
He has since drawn bill and has
made speeches about it.
The interstate commerce commits
sion has found itself handicapped by
it's inability to ascertain a basis for
ratemaking. 1t has absolutely no way
of making such determinations except
on complaints, and even then has no
real basis without being able to de-
termine the cost Of transportation. 1t
is understood that the commission has
reported this fact to the president,
with the result that he investigated
Senator La Follette's plan.
The La Toilette idea, as expressed
in amendments he offered to the Hep
burn bill last year, and embodied in
senate bill 1899, now in the commit
tee on interstate commerce, is that
until the fundamental basis for rate
making is established by ascertain
ing the value of railroad property and
the cost of transportation it is worse
than useless to expect the interstate
commerce commission to afford any ad-

ed from overcapitalization.
Such proposition undoubtedly will
arouse the railroads as nothing else
has done, and the president will have
on his hands the fight of his life. The
president, however, intends to take up
the question in his usual fashion and
to make it the subject of next winters
battle. The understanding is that the
communication to the interstate COM
merce commission will be merely the
first gun in a campaign which will oc-
cupy the attention of congress at it's
next session. That will be long ses-
sion, ending at the outset Of presi-
idential campaign, and there will be
a fine arena for a fight
The striking similarity between these
plans of the presidents and Senator
La Follette's ideas leads to the conclu-
sion that Mr.. Roosevelt has taken up
the Wisconsin senator's propositions
and decided to advocate them. La
Toilette has been fighting for just
such a plan since he entered congress.
He offered amendments last year along

equate relief to complainants.
His bill directs the commission to
investigate and ascertain the fair val
ue of the property of every railroad
engaged in interstate commerce. The
commission is authorized to employ
such engineers and other assistants as
may be necessary, and is directed, af-
ter ascertaining such values, to keep
itself fully informed as to the values
of extensions and additions, so as to
keep it's valuation Of each railroads
property properly revised and up to
date. On contests of valuations by
railroads provision is made for hear
ings before the commission.
In his speech on the rate bill last
year Mr.. La Toilette cited decision
of the supreme court in which it said:
"We hold that the basis of all cal
culations as to the reasonableness Of
rates to be charged by a corporation
maintaining a highway under legisla-
tive sanction must be the fair value
of the property being used by it for the

Washington, Jan. 29.-The men who
have been trying to get the president
to issue statement moderating his
attitude on the regulation Of corpora
tions are shortly to receive a severe
shock. The president is now at work
upon plan of railroad rate regulation
and If he carries it out the fight made
against him over the Hepburn bill will
be a mere summer breeze compared
with what will follow.
The first suggestion will be made in
a letter which the president is now
drawing up with the intention of send
ing it to the interstate commerce
commission, although he is quite likely
to send it to congress in the end. 1t
will deal with a question which was
not touched in the rate fight last year
the question of capitalization, the
valuation of railroad properties, and
the cost of operation, all TO be ascer-
tanned and used as basis for deter
mining rates. The idea is to give the
railroads fair return on actual invest
ments and to eliminate profits deriv-

ed to the great beyond" but two or
three, who are now old men.
We remember the boys of the ola
drum corps
In the days that are passed and
gone
We hear their music now no more
AS time is hurrying on;
We think of their music they used tn
play
In those happy days of yore--
Their flies have been quiet for many
day,
oh. where are the boys of the old
drum corps,
With their music so thrilling and
sweet?
They have passed from earth to hap
pier shore
Their loving friends to meet.
Are they playing harps near the great
White Throne,
To the Masters listening ear?
While he tenderly claims them as his
In a higher and better sphere.
Goodbye to you boys of the old drum
corps
Until we shall meet you again,
In land where parting is no more,
Where there's neither tears nor
pain;
We will march to your music and step
to time
AS we did in the days gone by.
While our eyes shall look on scenes
sublime
In that land beyond the sky.

Mr. Albert Singleton OF Provo and s
A. Tarbit mining expert from Salt
Lake We stayed at the mine two
nights and part of three days, very
busy all the time. both underground
and on top of our II claims, consist
ing of 245 acres Nearly every claim
covered with heavy large timber, suit
able for mining purposes. We have a
spring of the best water, 100 gallons 70
the minute, coming out from the TOP
claim and passing the boarding house
There are six or seven tunnels, aggre
eating over 1000 feet, where man
can go in and take his own samples
and have II assayed to see what 1t is
good for. Nobody need take our word
for 1t. There are enough cars. tracks
and tools to do considerable amount
of work. The people of Spanish Fork
would naturally think that the Darger
mine owners did not have any thing
but hut of cabin half ways in the
ground. but we have boarding house
40 feet square, with iron roof, 2 stories
high. large enough to accommodate
so men, put up In fine shape; also
what we call a bunkhouse 20x35, two
stories high, well made, large enough
for the men to sleep in. There ~ a
warehouse and assay Office. each l5x25,
good blacksmith shop, with tools, and
good stable A more beautiful coun-
try and scenery cannot be found. Be
sides timber of different kind the claim
is covered with ripe wild strawberries,
w orr
variety of flowers in bloom that you
don't see in the valley, and some that
you do see. We are only eight miles
from the r. G.. w. railroad, on a good
country road and will be shipping ore
this fall. Samples of ore were taken
from the different tunnels by some of
our party and when they get them as
sayed their value will be published in
the Press. We were entertained roy
ally by Mrs Party Darger and her
handsome daughter Matte. Better TIA
bles could not be set to home, and
their bread, biscuits, pie and cakes
were No. /. They had lot to do to
cook for 13 of us, for we were very
hungry every meal. Those buildings
had not been used for some time and
the amount of work it has taken to

dows, doors and so on was marvellous,
and great credit should be given to the
woman folks, for everything was nice
and clean. / had quite hard time to
get the crowd to make the trip--all
busy harvesting, and 1t takes money,
besides, but after seeing for them
selves they got so thoroughly satisfied
and interested that they are talking of
putting in small mill first thing and
after we have shipped car of ore at
good results 1t will be no trouble to
sell stock at good figure to help us
along.

what he makes.
