FOR INDUSTRIAL SCHOOLS
REPRESENTATIVE Doriss Measure 4p-
rored by the President.

Washinston Feb 20.-Representative E r. DAVIS
of Minnesota. author Of the industrial school pi'
which provides for the establishment OF asrlCu'l-
ura and industrial secondary schools in the var1-
Gus states had an interview by appointment WIN
President Roosevelt to-day in regard to his meas
ure. As result of his conference with the PreSi-
dent. who. according to Mr. Davis, gave ms
hearty and full Endorsement of the Dill, ana OF the
Endorsements from leading educators, educational
organizations. farmers association and commercial
bodies Of the country Mr.. Davis feels greatly en-
couraged concerning the passage in the near future
of his measure.
In the interview allusion made to the Presi-
dents speech Keokuk. Iowa, in October last
and the President gratifed 10 know that MS
ideas then expressed concerning the measure were
receiving such favorable consideration throughout
country. In this speech the President said that
the school system should be SO shaped as to educate
the farmer for the farm, and expressed the OPINION
that the matte of such vital importance that
the federal government should cooperate with the
state governments to obtain the needed change
Mr.. Davis has investigated some of the objections
urged against the bill and particularly those where
in it is said that federal appropriations would lead
national ownership of the contemplated schools,
also that these appropriations would relieve the
states from the sense of responsibility. Mr.. Davis
quotes letters from E E. Brown, United States
Commissioner Of Education on these points from
which Mr.. Davis contends that the figures en-
couraging as showing that national appropriations
have not tended relieve the states of the sense
of responsibility. but have. in fact, quckened the
sense O responsibility.
The schools provided for in this measure are of
the class those inaugurated under the
Morrill, act Of 1852" Mr.. Davis says. "and. like
them, will strengthen the states directly and the
federal government indirectly As these state col
Ieges have remained under state control, will
the schools Of agriculture and the schools of me-
chanic arts provided for in this bill remain under
state control, hence no cause for alarm from cen

PETITION FROM WABASH.
Must Close Many Stations # N'ne-
Hour Lac Is Enforced.

Washington Feb Ca proposition serious to
MANY thousands of people living at and near sfhaii
railroad stations throughout the country II Pie-
sented to- the Interstate Commerce COMMISSION III
an informal petition. in which the Wabash Rail
road Company asks for an extension of the 'ihe
for the going into effect OF the hihe-houi 10"
which applies to railroad employees who nave 'he
direction of movements of trains. 1t is declaleu
+, tho netition that unless the order of extension
is made either by the commission or bE congress
the only alternative will be the closing OF Id &c
number of stations the Wabash. This action
it is recognized will impair the efficiency of the
service and result in public inconvenience and in
terferc with the prompt movement OF trains. put
the wabash officials assert that they see no other
way out of the difficulty into which they VIII pe
plunged by the operation of the i"
IT is pointed in the petition that in order 10
comply with the provisions of the law the company
would have to employ an additional telegraph op-
orator at each Of stations its line. Thus TAR
the company says it has not been aoie TO oo'dli
the services of efficient and competent operators IN
such numbers as will enable it to comply with the
act The Wabash officials maintain that the ap-
pication of the law TO their line would result IN
great hardship and expense to the company, seem
ingly unnecessary. even II II were able TO secure
the necessary number ot efficient ana competent
employees for the purpose
Other railroad companies have taken substantially
the same ground the Wabash They main 'alh
their absolute inability to obtain sufficient num-
Der of competent telegraph operators to man thelf
wires as the law after March 4 will require 1t Is
pointed out that in complying with the law their
only recourse will be to transfer operators no" III
their employ to stations of greater Importance ana
larger traffic, thus practically closing many small
stations where the operator performs the du-
ties of ticket agent. freight agent and teiegrapher
The seriousness OF the situation presented oy the
railroads IS fully realized by the Interstate COM
rnerce Commission which will endeavor to reach
some satisfactory adjustment of the question before
the law becomes operative.

ords of the committee on ways and
means in proof of an assertion pre-
viously made by him and which then
was controverted by Mr.. Payne of
New York, that newspaper proprie-
tors had vigorously protested against
the tariff on wood pulp and paper at
the time the Dingley tariff bill was
under consideration and that their
representatives before the ways and
means committee emphatically warn
ed Mr.. Payne's committee that the
paper manufactures were seeking
la tariff as a shelter under which to
create great print paper trust -
Those newspaper publishers, he de-
clared, at the time they appeared
before the committee had warned it's
members that if paper were put on
the free list the creation of any
trust would be impossible.
He said that former Congressman
Russell, a pper manufacturer; form
Ter Senator Warner Miller, and H.
~. Chisholm of Maine, all had spok
en- before the committee in advocacy
of the tariff and he charged that ii
six months after the Dingley law
went into effect, the International
Paper company was Incorporated
with those three gentlemen as its
highest officers.
| The real object Of those who Sc
cured the Dingley tariff on paper
he declared, was to capitlize the
water power and spruce forests of the
| United States, form great monop-
oily and raise the price Of print pap.
err in America.
Another combination, he said, ha.
! grown up in the western states, op
Grating side by side with the Inter
national Paper company. The com
bination he saidd, was composed o
mills in Wisconsin, Minnesota, ant
Michigan, protected from compe
tition with each other by mutua
understanding"
The combination he referred to
he said had been known under val
ious names "and at one time openl
existed as the General Paper Co.
The price Of paper in the Unite
States, he declared, was monopol
price, and the only escape from
was to permit print paper to com
in free of duty.
