RAIL ROAD FINED
$1,000 FOR RELATING
A., T. & S. F. Through Council
Pleads Guilty.

Chicago, Aug S.-The Atchison. To-
peka a Santa Fe Railroad company,
by it's counsel pleaded guilty to rebat-
ing and was assessed a fine of $1,000
by Judge Bethea in the United States
district court.
The government represented by Dis
trict Attorney Edwin w. Sims, proved
that a bonus paid by the railroad to
the Garden City Sugar and Land COM
pany of Garden City, Kas., was in eff
feet a rebate. The railroad company
through it's industrial department, Of
fered the Garden City concern a bonus
of $4,000 for locating on it's line
This bonus was to be paid as freight
was shipped, and a year ago the sugar
and land company had paid $4,000 in
freight charges and had received Sill
900 of this bonus.
BY arrangement the scheme came
under the ban of the interstate com
MERGE and Elkins laws. The decision
does not it is stated, affect the pay
ing Of legitimate bonuses to assist
new industries.

THE SO-CALLED
HICKS SEPARATION,

Having listened from time to time to
incorrect statements of our Faith by
others, and to harmful inuendos
against us as a religious body, l have
felt great burden laid upon me to
remove this stumbling block from the
path OF the Lord. and to do what lies
in my power TO make His paths
straight"
1t is not in my own interest, nor yet
in the interest of our Society that l
feel called to make this effort, but
because it is due to God, and due to
the Saviour of mankind that Chris
| tians should endeavor to sympathize
with each other and to have an intel
ligent understanding of the work to
which each organization feels called,
or at least to avoid Misrepresentation
each OF the other; if not from love of
humanity. (which God loved so
much, then out of respect to God
who has called them to the service.
| My request to the Meeting has been
granted and a public meeting has
The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1908-08-08

been arranged for on next Sabbath aft
ernoon at 500 o'clock at North A
Street Friends meeting house, TO
which all are most cordially invited.
II you feel that you would like to know
what our distinguishing faith is; IL
you have either curiosity or interest;
If you desire to grant a fair hearing to
those who have long been misunder-
stood: il you feel that the cause OF
Christ suffers when any OF his follow
ers are not accorded just treatment;
or, if you desire to promote the real
unity of purpose" of all Christians,
then come and let me tell you the
foundation of our faith in God and in
Jesus Christ.
We seldom devote much time to re-
stating the foundation, being mostly
engaged in building the superstructure
on that foundation which Jesus said
has been laid since the beginning of
the world For information of the SUI
perstructure, which we are trying to
build we invite you to attend the Gen
eral Conference to be held at Winona
Lake Park from August 81 to Sept. 3rd
being in no sense a legislative body,
but an educative and uplifting force
of great power. This conference has
not been held in the west since the
Richmond conference in 1898, and
our vicinity for many years to come
The public cordially welcome.

REFORM IN BENCH AND BAR.

In the world Of bench and bar,
there are two tendencies for improve
ment which have arisen in the last
few weeks. Judge Taft's remarks at
the meeting Of the Virginia bar asso-
citation, and the code of ethics which
has been formulated by the American
better note in judicial procedure Mr..
Taft again showed his singular facul-
ty for voicing the feeling of the rank
and file of the people when he said
that there is too much delay in ordin-
airy litigation. Furthermore, he says
litigation is too costly and gives to the
rich litigant the advantage. His pro-
posal to confine the use of the superior
courts, both federal and state to ques-
tons in which the whole scope of the
law is concerned and to utilize the in
ferior courts for final decisions of pure
litigation is suggestion showing
great common sense.
His plan for reform { IN the matter
of the court costs and salaries of court
oficersl show a. full acquaintance
with modern conditions, which is re-
freshing in contrast with those of Mr..
Bryan. Mr.. Bryan's proposal that fed.
eral judges shall be elected and then
only for a short term, does not recog-
nize the fact that most of the evils OF
our state and county courts, have
arisen from the election evil, and from
too short a term OF Office coupled with
too small salaries. A judge may main.
tain his integrity much more easily
when he is in a position in which be
is ont influenced by monetary ques.
tons or by playing to the gallery fol
tenure of Office

greatest safeguard. The administra.
tive and the legislative branches o,

BOTH SIDES ARE STUBBORN
RAILROAD OFFICIALS AND THE
STRIkERREAkERS ARE EQUIP
PED TO FIGHT TO THE BITTER
ENDIT is REPORTED.

Winnipeg, Man, Aug. S.-The Cana
dian Pacific railway and the striking
mechanics are preparing for a long
struggle and it is now realized that
both sides of the controversy are fully
equipped to make the fight to the bit
ter end. The company's officials say
that the locomotives and rolling stock
of the system are in excellent cOndi-
ton. The company wired to San
Francisco for strike beakers, and al
ready 300 Japanese mechanics, train
ed in the railway shops and technical
schools of the west, are arriving. The
company will put the Orientals under
a heavy guard, fearing that the strik-
ers might, either by intimidation or
threats, influence the Japanese to lay
down their tools. Sleeping and din
ing cars have been drawn up on the
tracks adjacent to the machine shop
and in these cars the Japanese will
live until the strike is settled.
The company's troubles have been
further complicated by fifteen gang
bosses walking out and declining to
work with the Japanese. The union
men continue to hold mass meetings
and conduct themselves in a most or
derby manner. The pickets of the
strikers keep a close watch over the
shops and report the arrival of all
nonunion labor. Thousands of I'M
skilled laborers have applied for work
but the men are useless to the com.
pany. Many Poles and Russians have
offered their services.

HITCHCOCK MEETS ROOSEVELT
AND SAYS PRESIDENT SHOWED
GREAT INTEREST IN NATIONAL
CAMPAIGN PLANS.

New York Aug. S.-Elmer Dover has
not resigned as secretary of the re
publican national committee. accord
ing TO a statement he gave out here.
The report that Mr.. Dover had resign
ed was printed in a Chicago news pa
per.
Mr.. Dover arrived in New York &C
cOmpanied by Mrs. Dover. who soon
is to sail for Europe. The Chicago dis
patch was shown him, and he denied
that he had resigned. He declined to
say what he would do IN the future.
When actively engaged in campaign
work Secretary Dover's headquarters
will be in Chicago. AS already an
nounced Chairman Hitchcock proposes
to appoint a vice chairman who will
have general supervision of the work
centering at Chicago.
Chairman Hitchcock said he had not
heard that Mr. Dover intended to re.
sign, and added that he did not cred,
it the report. 1t is expected Secre-
tary will call upon Mr. Hitchcock to-
day.
When Mr.. Hitchcock returned from
his visit to the president at Oyster
Bay he had little to say about the pc,
litical matters discussed. He said the
president had shown great interest in
the plans for the republican campaign
in general and that the state situation
had been considered. Beyond that
Mr. Hitchcock said he could not talk
and he would not admit that any con-
illusions were reached as to whether
Mr.. Roosevelt and his advisors were
for or against the denomination OF
Governor Hughes.
1t is Understood the policy of Mr.
Hitchcock in listening to what every
body has to say on both sides of the
question was approved by the presi
dent and that the latter advised this
course be continued until the senti
ment of the various sections ant
classes in the state could be ascer
tanned
