|DEPEW CRITICISES TAFT RAILWAY PLANS

New York. Nov. 2s.-One of the warmest fights. in Congress and out, which has ever been waged by the railroads and their allies over legisla- ton vitally affecting the railways of the country is likely to begin in the next few months. should the reported views of President Taft on sweeping changes In the railway laws. giving added power to the Interstate Com merce Commission. be incorporated in lis message to Congress in the form of recommendations as indicated Tn dispatches from Washington, following a conference between the President and his advisers on Wednesday.
 There is a wide diversity of opinion among railroad men as to the effect of the individual items of the proposed changes in the laws concerning Fed eral supervision of interstate com merce. and these views will all be presented when the matter is brought officially to the attention of Congress Those railroad men who were to be found yesterday. however. said that they believed that the views on the question of increased Federal control which were attributed in the dispatches to the President would probably be greatly modified before they took form as statute.
 Senator Chauncey NJ. Depew. chair man of the Executive committee of the New York Central Railroad. speaking from the standpoint of a railroad man rather than as a Federal lawmaker. heartily indorsed some of the features of this proposed legislation. Others he found fault with. He said that many of the powers the President was reported as planning to secure for the Interstate Commerce Commission were already possessed by the Pubic Service Commission of New York State. or the railway commissions of other States. In the matter. for in stance. of supervision of the issue of stocks and bonds. he points out that the Chicago & Northwestern Railroad recently had to obtain the permission of three States before a new issue. in creasing its stock. could be made Some States. he added. have laws which compel the sale of railroad stock at par. and in Massachusetts there Is a law which provides that railroad stock must be sold at auction

pleasure to print such items and

The PAYNE BILL.
Senator Stone Will Attack Certain Features
of This Tariff Measure.

Opposition to the provisions of
the Payne bill amending the act
to provide revenues for the Philip
pine Islands has become general
on the part of Democratic sena-
tors, and attacks upon it ale IN
ticipated by the Senate committee
on finance. On that account this
section,has been laid aside to be
considered by the full committee.
Senator Stone, of Missouri, in
tends to try to strike out the
Payne bill Section 5, providing
for free trade with the Philippine
Islands, with certain limitations
upon the amount of sugar and to-
bacco that Lay be imported in
any Ole year. The Stone amend
ment will provide that the United
States must define its policies with
reference to the Philippines and
fix a limitation, not more thar
fifteen years hence, upon the con-
troll of the islands. 1t provides
that the United States then shall
withdraw and deliver over the
reins of the government to the
Filipines Under the amendment
this government would be required
to make treaties to secure the in
dependence and neutraliZatiohs of
the islands.
Further provision is made that
all products grown in the Philip
pines shall be entitled to free en-
try and in return all agricultural
machinery and implements, cot
ton and manufacturers thereof,
books and publications., machin-
ery of all kinds needed in the
manufacturing of Philippine

Effect of Baths on the Heart.

change in the size of the heart in
hot and cold baths. These are re,

persons, who were subjected to
baths of different tenn peratures.
1t was found that in six out Of
seven cases in which hot baths
were used, varying from 40 to As
degrees centrigrade, the heart was
diminished in size after bath. The
dlninution was very marked in
several cases.
Out of five persons subjected to
cold baths, it was found that the

The BOLTER.
No Encouragement for Little SeItishness
Acts, but Honesty in Politics,

Party regularity is an excellent
thing when the party is what it
ought to be. 1t is fine to see a
man stand by his party, his lodge
or his church when he can do so
and keep his conscience. But
there come times when he must
turn sadly away from the organi-
zation that has heretofore com
manded his allegiance, and de-
clare his independence. We have
just bad a striking example of this
in the recent contest before the
primaries in Raleigh. The party
in power had become corrupt.
The affairs of the city were shame
fullyj mismanaged. The public
revenues were wasted in salaries
and in various forms of graft.
The sturdy citizenship, after a
period of amazing patience and
forbearance, arose in their might
and swept the field. They were
in a sense "bolters." but the time
had come to bolt. Nothing else,
under the circumstances, could
have been done. The honorable
and the manly thing to do was
precisely what the good citizens
did, and the old officials we're in.
gloriously defeated. In former
days party regularity was a name
to conjure by. The lash of the
boss rang loud and clear, and ID
self.defense good men were forced
to swallow the pills that they need
not and will not swallow under
the new and better dlspensation.
The colored vote, usually on the
side of the vicious and corrupt, is
no longer a menace, and men are
free to consult their own con.
sciences rather than the political
exigences of the time. A bolter
who bolts for a good cause and be.
cause he will not endorse by his
vote a bad or incompetent candi-
date is a benefactor to his country
and not a renegade. The old time
party boss lost his power when the
amendment to the constitution
that disfranchised the colored vot-
er was ratified by the people. The
South has suffered more, perhaps,
thar any other section of our coun-
try because of our peculiar politi-
cal conditions with which we had
to deal. But the time has come at
last when a man need no longer
vote for a candidate he knows to
be corrupt because he belongs to
his party. Under the new condi-
tions, party loyalty cal be as
strong and true as ever; but party
slavery is a thing of the past

Is done to bring our entire list within
the government rules as to subscrip-
tions for weekly papers, and we hope
that every one who receives notice
will act promptly on 1t. There is no
need to be offended. 1t Is simply a
business matter. We can't run a
paper on wind any more than the
merchant, banker, farmer or any
other business man can conduct his
affairs on pleasant summer brcczcs.
TO all those who have responded
so promptly and literally we extend
sincere thanks. and we hope that
each one to whom our statements
have gone, or will go within the next
few days, will appreciate the situa-
ton and reply with sufficient
amounts TO put them in good stand

is attached a roOmy cloak-room.
Each room will be furnished with
a sufficient number of comfortable
single patent desks, a neat teachers
desk, and all other things demanded
by progressive school.
In the basement will be located the
heating plant. The Peck-Williamson
system of heating and ventilation is
to be used, and all the apparatus is
now in the basement ready to be
placed in position. This insures a
uniform heat throughout the build
ing, and the ventilation will be as
near perfect as modern ideas can
make it. When it is ready for occu-
pancy, the building and its furnish
ings ought to be a source Of pride
and qualification to aHa citizens of
Seneca, whether or not they are pa
irons Of the school. 3.
All should join hands in the effort
TO beautify the grounds around the
building. They can be made beauti-
full, and civic pride should cause all
to lend the aid required.
When the educational rally Is held,
let every citizen Of Seneca be on hand
to do his or her part toward making
the day great success. B.

South Carolina Farmers Club.

Augusta, Ga, Feb. 6.-John ID.
Rockefeller was the honor guest at n
barbecue dinner given by the Beech
Island farmers to-day. lie made a
short speech, in which he said that
he was no farmer, but his people as
far back as he could remember, were
farmers. He said that the farmers
during his forefathers' time were not
farmers like the farmers Of to-day;
that they Went after the business in a
haphaZard kind OF way.
Mr.. Rockefeller complimented the
roads OF this country, and said:
II believe the thing the farmers
most need is good roads. 1t will save
them much. You will save i'm haul
ing and also in the length of the life
of your stock"
In conclusion, MIR. Rockefeller
said:
But after We get through with
farming, or railroading. or whatever
our task in life may be, we will be
asked the pertinent question, it will
come to us, after we have finished
our work, and have handed ii down
10 our children, what was the fruit
Of our wOrk-what was the real
