The city has several garbage wagons

to the crematory, yet citizens have Of
ten been compelled to hire drays to
do this work and some times these

garbage within the city limits so that
now they shy at any proposition from
citizen to undertake a job of this
kind, consequently the citizen and tax

INTERSTATE COMMERCE ACT.
President Taft Calls Conference Il
Discuss Proposed Changes.

WASHINGTON, August 25.-Chair-
man Knapp and Commissioner Prouty,
of the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion, are in receipt of invitations from
President Taft to attend a conference
which is to be held beginning next
Monday in New York to consider pro-
posed changes in the interstate COM
merce act. Attending the conference
besides the two commissioners will be
Attorney General Wickersham, Secre-
tary Nagel, of the Department of Com
merce and Labor; Solicitor-General
Bowers, of the Department of Justice,
and Representative Townsend of Mich
iagn.
Chairman Knapp left here yesterday
for Maine to spend part of his vaca-
ton.
The President and Attorney-genera
Wickersham, it is said desire to have
enacted by congress, legislation that
will take from the Interstate Com
MERGE Commission the investigation
of criminal practices of interstate car
ciefs and place such Investigations
in the hands of the officials of the
Department of Justice and of the Blu
reau of Corporations.
Such an arrangement would make of
the Interstate Commerce Commission
practically judicial body with powers
limited to an examination into the
of freight rates. 1t is
by majority of the members
of the commission because it is main
aimed that the inquiry into rates dove
tails into the investigation into secret
rates and unlawful practices to such
IN extent that it is impossible to diff
erentiate between the inquiries.
Attorney-general Wickersham says
is a difficult problem and no de-
of it can be reached until
he matter has been threshed out thor
ughly by those familiar with all the
arious points of view. 1t is for the
urpose Of reaching such a conclu- {

THE OTHER MULES GRASS.

Memphis News-Scimitar.
We laugh at the mule that Stands al
the fence, neglecting to eat, and looks
longingly into the adjoining pasture,
imagining that the grass there. is
sweeter than his own.
1t is laughable, and yet it is the
same trait that we who call ourselves
wiser than the mule exhibit all
through our lives.
We begin early. How quickly a
baby will drop whatever he is playing
with to grasp at that which is with
held from him.!
A TENDENCY TO UNDERVALUE
WHAT WE HAVE AND TO OVER
VALUE WHAT OTHERS HAVE
SEEMS TO BE AN ELEMENT OF
OUR NATURE.
Many a young writer feels that he
would be quite happy if he could write
such history as Fiske; yet the story is
told of Fiske that his great desire was
to sing. Compliments on his writings
or lectures brought no sweetness to
him, but a favorable word of his sing
ing filled him with Joy.
The mule at the fence has plenty
of company. The poor think the rich
mast be happy, the rich envy the poor
their lack of cares. The unsuccessful
deem the successful ones content; the
ones miss the keen joy of
in their days of hard struggle.
We see only the thorns in our own
vocations, only the roses in those of
others. The shop girl would be an
