Des Moines, Nov 3.--Whether or
not Charley Johnston and julie Rich
ards will be hailed into court to an
swer for their open and fragrant vto-
lation of the Iowa laws depends upon
members Of the civic league or fedora
ton in Des Moines. Monday morn
Ing they took up the case Of the Rich
ards-Johnston committee engaging in
advertising campaign attacks on the
governor Of the state. One Of the
best lawyers Of the state was consulted
and he gave 1t as his opinion. after
reading the law and the rulings Of the
attorney general, that Johnston at least
was guilty of violation Of the laws of
Iowa. Other lawyers all said the
same thing. II the matter had come
up week ago prosecution would GER
tainly have been made at once, but
there was no desire to take action
that would even look like an eleventh
hour scheme to create sympathy.
Whatever prosecution is done will have
to be after the election, as the vio-
lation was timed to come so late that
prosecution would not be available. The
law specifically violated is section 1857
asa Of the primary laws, or a part Of
the primary law Of last winter This
forbids paying for services in the In
terest of any candidate. An exception
is made in the law for announce
ments" Of candidates In the newspa-
pers. Attorney General Byers in his
ruling Of the law in January pointed
out that under this law it would be
unlawful for a newspaper to publish

committee ought to be prosecuted. but
we do not care to dip into the game"
said one Of those connected with the
Cummins campaign, yesterday. we
would be accused of trying to effect
the result by such methods and 1t
would react. But we have been urged
to do the same thing and we kept
out To permit disreputables to go on
violating the Iowa. law while self-re-
specting people observe it is to put
a premium on the campaign methods
of men who care nothing for honor and
do not fear prison life. 1t would be
well to have the courts handle a sam
pie case and decide just what is the
law, what rights campaign commit
tees have, and whether or not they
are under obligation to observe the

Ottumwa, Nov. 3.-The hearing be-
fore Commissioner j. S. Harlem, Of the
| interstate commerce commission in
this city, came to close, and adj
| journed to meet in Chicago some time
during January. The testimony both
verbal and in the exhibits in writing
presented by local shippers was all
that was taken at the hearing and the
railroads gave no testimony during the
day. Several Ottumwa manufacturers
and jobbers comprised those giving the
testimony and much important infor-
nation on rates and tariffs, etc, was
brought out.
The most important information
produced in the exhibits and oral tes-
timony was the discrimination shown
in thru rates from New York and
points east of the Indiana and Illinois
state line, to Mississippi river points.
It was shown that by combining local
with the thru rate after the shipment
had reached the river, reduction In
favor of the shipper was shown as
compared to the thru rate the entire
distance. This was made the basis OF
the complaint by the local shippers who
claim they are Disseminated against IN
favor Of the points along the Mississ-
ippi river, and seek an adjustment OF
the rate that will make it equally pro-
portioned and they not have to bear a
greater rate in proportion than their
competitors in river cities.
Local Shippers Testify.
Among those who appeared at the
afternoon session of the hearing were:
George McElroy. Of the Ottumwa Pad
and Blanket company; w. T. Harper.
of the Edgerly Drug company; Paul
Arbenz, of the Dain Manufacturing
company, and Frank McIntire, of Har-
per McIntire company.
The complaint covers practically
every commodity and various classes
Of freight. Those complaining to the
commissioner represent nearly all
such branches Of freight. Upon the
completion of the testimony Of the
local shippers, the railroads not Offer
ing any testimony, the hearing ad-
journed to meet at Chicago some time
during January. The hearing was
held in Ottumwa by request of the
Commercial association, which Is ar
rayed against the four railroads en-
tering Ottumwa, namely: c., B. & O.;
c., NJ. & st. p; Wabash and Rock
