THE next
MEETING

The next meeting of the Western
Slope conference of the Colorado
Federation Of Woman's Clubs will be
held in Salida in 1900.
Mrs. Sprigg Shackleford of Grand
Junction is to be recommended to
the state federation, which meets in
Colorado Springs in October, for the
Office of president of the Western
Slope conference.
Resolutions were passed relative
to the successful entertainment of
the conference by Grand Junction.
1t was decided to ask the state fed
Grafton to allow the Western Slope
conference to nominate its own pres
ident in the future.
The above represents the most i'm
portant actions taken by the confer
ence at it's business session yester-
day afternoon at the Congregational
church. Much other business of min
or Importance was given attention.
At a late hour the conference ad-
journed for the session. There is no
question but what the meeting was
the most successful and enjoyable
the organization has ever held This
is the opinion of practically all dele
gates and visitors to the conference.
On every hand words of praise for
the admirable manner in which the
conference was entertained by the
Grand Junction club and the excel
lent series of pleasant features pro-
vided.
Today many of the delegates and
visitors left for their homes. A
number will remain over Sunday with
friends in the city.
Grand Junction is better for hav-
ing this conference held within her
gates. 1t was a delight to entertain
the ladies from the neighboring cit
les and towns. May this not be the
last time the Western Slope confer
ence meets in Grand Junction.

In the larger shops where the
American and European residents of
Mexico do their shopping, there are
the same scenes Of activity as in the

Rate Laws Void In Two State.

The United States supreme court
handed down two important decisions.
one declaring the Minnesota rate law
null and void because OF the enormous
penalties involved. and the other set
ting aside the North Carolina railroad
rate law as unconstitutional
The first decision was a denial of the
petition OF Attorney General Edward
T. Young, OF Minnesota. for a writ OF
habeas corpus in the case in which he
is held for contempt of court by the
United States circuit court of Mime
sofa, because he refused to abide by
an injunction issued by that court for.
bidding him from taking any action
looking to the enforcement of the
maximum railroad rate law.
The court at the same time pro
nounces invalid the Minnesota law
regulating both freight and passenger
rates. The opinion was announced by
Justice Peckham. who held the Min
nesota law TO be unconstitutional on
its face because of the enormous pen.

Justice Harlan DIssents.
Washington. March "a. - The bin
prepared by the National Civic Fed
Grafton after conferences with the
president and Representatives OF CAPT
tai and OF labor to relieve the string
ency Of the Sherman antitrust law,
was introduced in the house by Repre-
sentative Hepburn. of Iowa, chairman
Of the committee on interstate and for
eign commerce. II was referred by
Speaker Cannon TO that committee for
consideration and report. II is under
stood that President Roosevelt, in a
message TO congress. will make a re-
commendation concerning II.
One OF the most interesting sections
Of the federation bill IS that which
seeks 20 relieve organized labor from
the suppressive effects OF the re mt
supreme court decision declaring labor
unions TO be conspiracies in restraint
OF trade. and, therefore, unlawful. The
bill. broadly speaking. aims TO restore
to unions their right OF peaceable ex-
istence. including the right TO strike,
but leaving them still amenable 10 the
Sherman act IN the matter OF boycotts,
picketlng and similar coercive prac-
tees. The section Is as follows:
Nothing in said act. appoved July
., eighteen hundred and ninety. or In
this act is intended. nor shall any pro-
vision thereof be enforced, so as to
interfere with or to restrict any right
OF employees 10 strike for any cause OF
10 combine or TO contract with each
other or with employers. for the pur-
pose OF peaceably obtaining from en-
ployers satisfactory terms for their
labor or satisfactory conditions OF en-
ployment, or so as 10 interfere with or
restrict any right of employers for any
cause tc discharge all or ary OF
their employees. OF to combine or TO
contract with each other or with en-
ployes. for the purpose Of peaceably
obtaining labor OF satisfactory terms. 3"
The bill has been prepared under
the auspices OF the National Civic
Federation in consultation. on the one
hand, with the president and other
executive officers on the government.
and on the other hand with represen-
tatives OF the business and railroad in
terests of the country and Of organized
labor. The effort has been 20 pre-

an excellent sermon was preached
by Rev. William Thomas OF Centralia.
Tnel officers OF the church had
asked that a special collection OF
$4,000 be raised on this day. Long
before communion service had ended
this amount was in sight. and IL was
certainly a happy time at the close
OF the night service when the clerk
arose and announced that $115.1O
had been lifted.
II seems that the question OF pas
tor certainly is about to be settled.
To this end a special call meeting
has been announced and all the men,
bers of the church are urgently ask

evidenced that the question will be
