the excessive charges that we lodge
our complaint, but it is the inequality
of the rate where the shoe pinches the
interior towns.
+. Now, why does the shipper have 20
pay more than The published rate-
more than the rate book show5-0n a
shipment Of canned goods from Balti-
more TO Ocala? Because the whole
sale dealer is told that when the snip
meut leaves the port Of Jacksonville
. Tor an inferior town il becomes inter
state. and the local rate does not APP
( ply.
The only way that he can do in c.
der to get the benefit OF the water
rate to Jacksonville and the local -a.a
to Ocala (Which in all conscience is
thigh enough is TO have The goods

/ Jacksonville. uuloaded. remarked and
Ire-shipped TO OcaIa.
Unless he does this he must pay IS
cents instead of 81 cents. as We stated
in cur last article
We have our information from a
wholesale dealer and he Is ready at
any time TO submit the documents
showing that the above statements
are correct
There are more interior towns and
cities than there are seaport towns
and cities. The water crafts lake
care of their own: why do not the rail
roads take care Of their own? Why
DO they not foster and protect the in
terror cities that are entirely depend
ent on them? As We have said be-
fore, every pound Of freight coming in
and going out must pass through the
railroad hopper, and the larger these
cities grow the more freight there will
be TO pass through this hopper.
Why build up the seaport cities for
the benefit Of their rivals-the boats? !
If a railroad can haul goods from
one seaport city to another seaport |
city for a distance Of one hundred /
miles or one thousand miles and make .
money, they can haul the same goods /
The same distance from one interior /
city to another and make money.
Bur it is not the rate that we COM !
plain Oft is the inequality OF the
rate.
All we ask is for every tub to stand
On its own bottom, giving all an equal
chance, showing no partiaiity to any,
then crown that city the victor whose
5est efforts deserve it.

Cannas

Cannas stand at the head of the
list of bedding plants for the Ameri-
can climate. Their bright colored flow
ers and large leaves make a brilliant
showing all summer long. Their cult
ure is easy and simpe. Plants ready
to set out after all danger OF frost is
passed may be obtained from most
florists. There is an immense variety
of colors, and several Towering types
Cannas are usually used in formal
bedding and planting but excellent re-
suits may be obtained by planting,
them in clumps among the hardy
shrubbery or in border. The best
effect is obtained by planting them
against dark background. = Cannas
make excellent center pieces for all
flower beds. The dark leaved varieties
have become very popular because OF
their rich color. AS individual plants
the cannas are not attractive, but
should always be used for bold plant
ing effects. If plants which have
been started in the greenhouse are
procured this spring, they should be.
dug up in the fall after frost has
killed the leaves. Let the stools dry
out thoroughly and store them in
dry cellar until the following spring.
Divide the stools so as to leave as
much tissue as possible with each bud
To keep roots of the large Towering
French varieties, place them in
warm cellar in boxes filed with earth
and keep them slightly moist during
the winter.

4, Donald joint resolution with the sem
ate substitute providing for a consti-
tutional amendment permitting the
enactment of special legislation with
reference to the city at which Is To-
Gated the seat of government and the
state university, including the power
to amend the charter of such city and

ator Fairchild's autocratic exhibition

which he out-Stranged the lieutenant
governor while his confreres shook
with laughter He declared senators
out of order and motions carried or
lost with high hand until Senator
Brazeau, after having been ruthlessly
swept aside, got back by moving the
indefinite postponement of one of the
Milwaukee senator's pet measures.
The senate promptly killed the bill
and it was not until the calendar was
completed that Senator Blaine moved
a reconsideration and the bill was
again referred to the committee on
charitable and penal institutions, to
which Senator Fairchild desired it
sent. The bill relates to the care for
dependent children.
The Faircbild bill providing for a
board of review in cities of the first
class was indefinitely postponed as
was the Lehr measure licensing the
manufacture and sale of patent medi-
bill relating to notice in case of per-
sonal injury was concurred in with
out renewal of the fight which was
occasioned when it first appeared on

Among the senate bills passed We're
the Lehr bill authorizing the prefer

ans in civil service examinations
where not in competition with veter-
ans of the civil war and the Sanborn
bill extending the time within whiclN
public utilities of the state may ASH

Five new bills came in from the
judiciary committee. Two relate to
responsibility for failure TO imprison

killing of such animals by officers;
making the term of the additional

gard to the granting of liquor licenses
to persons convicted of penal offenses

that a capitol employee recently lost
large sum of money in local
gambling house, the assembly yester-
day morning adopted a joint resolu-
ton introduced by Mr.. Roethe, urging
the city authorities to eradicate the
gambling evil in Madison. The meas
ure received the unanimous vote of
the lower house.
At least two gambling houses about
the square have closed up within the
past 4S hours, for good, it is said.
One of the places has been literally
patronized by legislative visitors and
lobbyists, who are usually we'll sup
piled with money. The profits OF this
house are said to have ranged from
$500 to ST 500 a week ever since the
legislature convened.
