Can Make Low Fares.

Columbus, O., July 16.-Judge Big
ger, in common pleas court, overruled
the state railway commission in the
application of the Hooking Valley rail
way for an injunction and holds, in his
decision, that railroads can fix any
rate below the legal rate of two cents
a mile to meet competition. The rail
way commission, on application of the
citizens of Logan, ordered the Hook
ing Valley to dispense with its low
fares between Lancaster and Colum-
bus, where it has opposition from a
traction line, or make its fares in the
state uniform. The railroad sued to
enjon the commission and 1t was
granted.

NAMES SHIRT WAIST INSPECTOR.
Mayor Busse, of Chicago, Appoints Fe.
male Garment Critics.

Chicago.-A "shirtwaist inspector"
is the latest addition to the city hall
pay roll. Just what the remuneration
and the duties of the inspector are to
be no one exactly knows, but because
Mrs. Ida Cross is displeased with a CO.
cent shirt waist she purchased at a
state street department store, the in.
spector was appointed Louis NJ
Featherstone, whose knowledge of the
secrets of the construction of the
'peekaboo' and other shirt waists is
said to be above reproach, Is the first
Inspector"
His appointment was made because
Mayor Busse and the other heads OF
the city hall are too gallant to see
one of the fair sex in trouble.
Monday afternoon, being bargain
day, Mrs. Cross purchased a shirt
waist that attracted her attention In a
store. After taking il home her idess
changed, and she returned 1t and
asked that her money be refunded A
polite refusal followed, with the eX.
planation that the waist was slightly
soiled. If Mrs Cross would pay to
have II laundered the company would
be glad to refund the difference, she
was told.
Appeals to the managers of the
store proved fruitless; they gave the
same reply. Having heard that Mayor
Busse Is a friend of those in trouble,
Mrs Cross told him her story and
asked his aid.
81 will appoint a special shirt vast
inspector" he exclaimed. Here,
Featherstone, you know all about shirt
waists, don't you?"
Surely" replied the unsuspicious
Featherstone. "Peekaboo, fancy and
plan. Linen, calico or silk Plated
That's enough, You are now the
official shirt waist Inspector for the

GAVE ROAD TO AFRICA
JAMES STEVENSON, scoTcHMAN,
DONATED $4,000 FOR WORK.
Route Lies Between North End of
Lake Nyassa and South End of
Lake Tanganyika, Distance
of 211 Miles.

London - James Stevenson,
wealthy Scotchman. gave $4,000 to
build road between the north end
OF Lake Nyassa and the south end of
Lake Tanganyika In Central Africa
about 25 years ago lie was con
nnced that nothing would help more
70 develop Africa than good highways.
II took two years to build the road,
aud it was well built. Its length is
2l1 miles. Apart from the great use
rulness of the road the white men
there have always said that it has
been powerful civillzing agency.
1t has helped to accugtom the ma
tives of that densely populated region
to work for the white, and to use
calico and other European articles.
the work of construction was the
first instance on a large scale OF the
utilization of native labor in Central
Africa. Many trained laborers now
live along the road and engage in
transport service between the two
great lakes.
This highway is known as the Stev.
enson road. Mr. Chrapkoyski, an oal-
cial In the German service, who re-
Gently travelled over the road, has
written an interesting account of It.
He says that though nothing has
been done to maintain the road built
% years ago, 1t is still, with the sin
gle exception of the road between Vic
toria NyanZa and Tanganyika, the best
highway IN Central Africa. AS moth
ing has Been done to maintain the
road, 1t Is now covered with grass,
but travellers say this Is really an ad-
vantage, as the vegetation has helped
to keep the road from washing, and it
is also better for the feet of the car
riers, who dislike to walk on those
stretches where there is no grass, for
it 10 as hard as stone and hurts their
feet.
The usefulness Of the road Is proved
by the fact that porters carrying 60
pounds on their backs make an aver
age of 20 miles a day, while the usual
Journey is only ten miles. The road
passes entirely through British terri
tory and the government has erected
station every 20 miles where cara.
vans may spend the night.
There is provision at each station
to put all the freight under cover com
Portable brick and concrete houses al
cord excellent conditions for a good
nights rest, and there are cookhouses
where the meals of the caravan are
prepared. One of the neighboring
chiefs is held responsible for the clean
liness and good order of each station,
lie receives a monthly salary Of a few
shillings from the government and
a few yards of calico from each cara,
van passing over the route

There Is more Catarrh In this sec
ton of the country than all other
diseases put together, and until the
last few years was supposed to be
incurable. For a great many years
doctors pronounced 1t local disease

constantly failing to cure with local
treatment pronounced it incurable.

constitutional disease and therefore
requires constitutional treatment.

Nuremberg, Germany some years ago,
one Sunday in June nearly the whole
populace assembled in the cemeteries
placed flowers on the graves and then
attended religious service.
All afternoon and next morning un,

flowers to the churchyard and placed
them on the graves When the time
arrived for beginning the services
the great expanse of hower-decked
graves presented scene of rare

A Great Wrong Righted.

Under the above heading Editor
Bowen of the Sioux Falls Press
pours a little hot vinegar into the
wounds of the machine that trampled
under foot the demands of the people
two years ago, and he flays the ring
sters with his trenchant blade SO
nicely that one can't but admire his
elegant style, and this is the way he
skins them:
Friday, the 18th day of February,
witnessed the elimination Of the UNI
lucky experience of the machine fac
tion of the republican party of South
Dakota. On that day primary cleo
tion bill was agreed to in both houses
of the Legislature and sent to the gov
ernor for his signature.
The demand for primary election
law was the rock upon which the ma.
chine wrecked its organization and its
hopes for the future.
In February OF 1905, it's advocates,
defeated by gross violation of the
constitution, jeered at and asked what
they were going to do about It, replied
that they would be back in Two years.
They returned in overwhelming
numbers and in the meantime the con-
flict that had entered about the out
rage of 1905 had destroyed the Organi-
zation that had ridden rough shOd over
a popular demand, had dethroned the
executive who had advised an uncOn-
stitutional course and had elected as
his successor the foremost champion
of a primary law.
Retributjon and justice never
marched hand ana hand more surely
over a righteous course.
The new election law goes into inn
mediate effect, its opponents Of two
years ago being so overwhelmingly de-
feated at the polls that they were una
BILE to muster the necessary One-third
that would have prevented the adop-
tion of an emergency clause.
Governor Crawford is a subject for
congratulation, along with those who
stood with him and highly resolved
that the unlawful defeat of the meas
ure marked the beginning OF the
ii ght.
What the primary election law will
do for the state is not now . subject
for discussion. The future will answer
that question. It is the triumph OF
the principle emblazoned on the great
seal of the state that ssthe people
rule that fills the hour with rejOic-
ing.
Two years ago they were told by an
insolent cabal of politicians that they
should not rule. Their answer has
been placed on the pages Of the stat
ute book Of the state and the cabal
has gone down to disgraceful annihil-
latiOn.
Having secured the law, the people
will administer it and although its
enemies predict dire results, they
will still believe that they have
wrought wisely and we'll.
