BEGIN LEGAL BATTLE
EORGIA SHIPPERS FIGHT FOR RECIPROCAL DEMURRAGE.
State Supreme Court Gives Decision Against Railroads and Latter
 Now Look to Federal
 Courts for Ruling.

Atlanta. Ga, Sept. 26.-The question Iof reciprocal demurrage--upheld by
 the Supreme Court of Georgia in an opinion handed down Saturday, in which the State Railroad Commission was sustained bids fair to furnish the blsis of one of the greatest legal bat les ever waged by the railroad inter- 'ests against State authority. AL Ssady preparations are being made to ttke the matter Tn the Federal courts
 and not until the United States Su- 'p,eme Court passes upon the question
 will the contest be considered ended
 If the decision of the Georgia Su- lpreme Court is upheld in the Federal tribunals. the railroads will have to ply claims in this State aggregatins
 $l0.000. But the decision is more far reaching and under 1t the railroads Twill be compelled to furnish cars to shippers upon demand or suffer pen ialties in the way of demurrage charges
 It is customary for the railroads to charge demurrage of $1 per day per Icar after being placed at the shippers disposal and before 1t is loaded. For years the shippers of this and other states have fought for reciprocal de- murrage. The order of the Georgia
 Railroad Commission required the rail- roads to pay the same rate of demur- rage, after demand for cars. as Is re- quired for the shippers.

Al spectacuIar FoozIe

Louisville-Courier Journal.
 The most striking feature of Presi- dent Taft's Winona defense" of the Aldrich-Payne tariff bill Is his conten- ton that, bad as the bill may be. 1t is justifiable because its passage was es- sential for the continued supremacy of the Republican Party--a contention coupled with the admission that a bet- ter bill could not have been passed by that party. and with the further admission that the tariff policy of that party is dictated. not by the people. but by the special interests--notably the wool growers and the wood manu- lecturers!
 It is not as pathetic as 1t is as- founding that one who is so much man, so much a statesman as the Pres- ident should thus be put to 1t to de- fend his act in signing a measure sent to him, not by his country. but by his party?
 And why should such sacrifice be deemed necessary for a party which the President confesses could not, if 1t would. legislate for the people, when the special interests demand that 1t legislate for the special interests? How Is 1t that such party can be considered worth any sacrifice, or worth preservfng2

Novel Gift For Education.

Cleveianu Flatn DoaAeE, x-
 Tn those days of large gifts TOT phiianthropic purposes 1t takes some thing of startling novelty or prodigi- ous size to attract even passing no-- tice.
 The Congregational Education soci- ety is the recipient of a favor that is entitled to attention. An entire town in Southern Missouri has been made over to the organization upon the condition that 1t shall establish and maintain there an academy for the industrial training of young men for forestry and mining work. The town has some 250 dwellings. stores, municipal buildings. bank, and all the features of a live village. The donor is the Missouri Lumber and Min ing Company, which, having exhaust ed the timber resources of the vicini- ty, has no further use for the town.
 Industrial education has leaped in- to popular favor in recent years. Few dispute it's value to the State. The Missouri concern that gives the town of Grandin for the establishment of an academy shows practical interest in a practical subject.

BEAT OVER HEAD WHILE
 TRYING TO SEIZE LIQUOR

Cohteyville, Kan. Sept. 2s--County Attorney Hal Clark. of this county, was set upon by Oklahoma "jointists'' and seriously injured. following the seizure today of large quantity of contraband whiskey and beer by Kan sas officers just across the line from Oklahoma.
 The liquor belonged to "jointists'' of South Coffeyville. Okla, and had been hastily moved back and forth across the State line at least half a dozen times. as officials of both States were trying to take possession of 1t.
 Attorney Clark. after the liquor had been seized. crossed the line in a mo- tor car to confer with the Oklahoma officials. He was dragged from the car and beaten on the head with his own revolver. The situation presents pecu- liar legal aspects. which attorneys from both States tried to solve to- night.

FAVOR POSTAL BANK
WILL FIGHT MOVEMENT or BANK
 ERs' ASSOCIATION.
Crucial Fight in Cesgress Next Winter Indicated By Agitation on Sena- tor Carterss Plan for
 Savings Banks.


 Chicago, Sept. 6.-(Special) New memberships received by the Postal Savings Bank League since the Ameri- can Bankers Association declared open war upon the postal savings bank measure, indicate that the crucial fight in Congress next winter between the banks against this mesure and the people for 1t will find formidable membership enlisted to make organized, united demand for the enactment of the bill.
 Letters received from both men and women, inquiring how they can aid in the light. show the public awake to the situation, growing indignant and ready to take up the gauge of battle thrown down by the money power.
 In preparation for enrolling for a big public membership. the League headquarters will be removed from the First National Bank building to | the Rand, McNally building. Oct. |. Assurances of cooperation and support are pouring in from important news papers. magazines and other publica- tions, and the centralization of public sentiment Is urged by both Democratic and Republican forces. Campaign literature. speakers and documents are to be used.
 The contention of the American Bankers Association that this Gov ernmental stimulus to the thrift of the nation lis unecomonic," has met a very chilly reception. The failure of the association to agree on a substitute provision of any kind has left the ob- vious need of an auxuliary to the present banking facilities unprovided for by the bankers. Even in the New England States, savings bank facili- ties are found unequal to the needs of the people who wish to save.
 One investigator for the Postal Saw ings League has reported that he finds Bristol, Me, with a population of 5000 and ten postoffices. The nearest sav- ings bank is twenty miles distant. There are 400 postoffices in Maine. but there are forty-two savings banks. In the towns and cities which have saw ings banks there are found to be only 25O,0o of the 100000 inhabitants of the State.
 Mayor Edward W Hooker of Hart ford has written to the League: "I do not agree with our savings bank of- ficers that a national system of sav- ings will hurt them in the least, but they seem to> look at the matter in what to me is a selfish way. and feel that the postal savings bank would hurt their business. earnestly nope that your efforts will be successful, as I believe the postal bank would be great benefit to the entire country, and would in no way hurt the savings bank, but would also be beneht to this institution"
 A bulletin issued by the League over the signature of George H. Currier, chairman of the Executive Committee, declares: Not in years has there been an issue before the American people that was SO clear-cut as this, the peo- ple against the banks. We must or ganize, for united we stand, divided we fall' expresses the need In the race of the opposition"

 That World Moves On.
 West Duxbury, Mass. Sept. 26--The time set for the end of the world as re. vealed in visions to some of the more radical of the Triune 1mmersionists who have been gathered at Ashdod for several days, has passed and tonight at the little chapel of the faithful, serv- ice of prayer and song was held to ask the counsel of God and to await His revelation. Dozens of the faithful have given up for the present all hope of the great glorification" and have gone to their homes but others have arrived to take their places.
 The meeting in the chapel today was open to outsiders and was conducted much the same as prayer and testi- moniai meetings of other denomina- tions. But nearby in room that serves as a kitchen there was another meet ing to which only the faithful were allowed to gather. The room was crowded with Immersionists. All were standing with their hands ana races upraised, apparently waiting for some revelation.
