Attorney General Wickersham wrote
letter to Nelson, Morris & Co. Of
Chicago upon the question of rebates
which virtually said to them $50. my
child, and sin no more" Nothing
which has been done in the past six
wears has caused so much comment as
the attitude which is disclosed by the
Attorney Generals letter. He advised
the firm to discontinue certain methods
which it employed in the valuation of
it's products offered for shipment to the
railroads.
The Attorney General declares the
methods of valuation referred to make
it appear the company is, in effect, re-
ceiving freight rebates from railway
carriers in violation of law. The
method of computing values, he says,
results in the naming of values which
are fictitious, but he adds that in his
opinion, there has been no intention on
the part of the packing company to
evade the law.
The tone of the Attorney Generals
letter may be regarded by the business
and commercial world as highly sig
nifcant. Mr.. Wickersham's letter
simply calls for the correction of an
abuse, without recourse to prosecution,
and by implication at least he disavows
any wish to prosecute if the end can be
accomplished by peaceable means
which will cause no disturbance of
business.

Cattle receipts were moderate, the

pressed no opinion as to the testimony,
the certified copy Of which he placed on
file. 1t was sent to him by responsible
citizens of Wisconsin who believe that
it contained matter which should be
brought to the attention of the Presl-
dent before he should finally determine
upon the question of making the re-
commentator. Mr.. LaFollette de-
sired the President to understand that
he had no preferences to express IN the
matter and that the naming OF an at
torney for that District was subject
over which Senator Stephenson, under
the presidential rule and the practice,
had sole jurisdiction.
1t is understood here that the Attor-
ney General has reviewed the evidence
submitted and has concluded that there
are not sufficient reasons for him to re-
commend that Mr.. Gordon be not APP
pointed and that President Taft will
send the name of Mr.. Gordon to the
Senate.
The Northern Pacific Railroad COM
pany has pending before the War De-
partment an application for the APP
prevail of plans which it has submitted
of bridge to replace the structure
which it now has connecting Superior,
Wisconsin, with Duluth, Mimi. Upon
representation that the commercial
interests of both of these cities desire
that the new railroad bridge shall not
only be used for railroad purposes but
also for general highway purposes,
Senator LaFollette got the Secretary
of War to withhold his approval and
determination until such time as the
business men of these cities may have
opportunity to present their side to the
Department. 1t is expected that the
Minnesota Senators will cooperate with
the Wisconsin Senators in an effort to
have the railroad company make their
bridge highway for general purposes.

A proposition to place tax upon all
sales of grain and stock for future
delivery was introduced in the Senate
as result of conference of demo-
Gratis. This is the outgrowth of the ex-
citement caused by the Patten wheat
deal. Representative Scott has intro
duced bill to prohibit the dealing in
futures of wheat, corn, oats and rye
in the hope to end such manipula-
ton as has been demonstrated to have
been the case in the Patten deal.
The manipulations of Patten brought
broadside from Secretary of Agri-
culture Wilson who said:
"Patten is nothing more or less than
gambler. His statements in regard
to the Departments estimate OF the
wheat on hand are made with a pur-
pose. He is not telling the truth, but
is talking for his own advantage. His
corner will meet the same fate as have
others. The farmers will ship him
their wheat, he will have to pay the
market price for all that comes ano
then when the time comes he must sci
it again and if the people won't buy
his corner will break. If the price OF
wheat is too high, many people in this
| country will use corn, or other grains.
One bad effect of the corner will be
the almost certain effort of farmers il
the northwest to plant most OF thei1
| land in wheat this summer or fall
This will cause the production to rise
and the prices to fall.

SIGH FOR GOOD OLD TIMES"
Wearisome Members Of Usedto-Be
Club at Washington.

This is the time of the year, when
the lean-shanked cling to the covers
until the last call for breakfast and
the ice water in the shower Kisses like
steam when it hits the chests Of the
full-blooded, that all the members Of
the Used-to-Be club come out Of hid
ing and begin to disturb the air. /
met one of them--a newspaper man,
too-on the street the other day. He
bemoaned the fact that we never have
skating any more. According to his
highly veracious remarks the Potomac
river used to freeze about the 1st Of
August and stay frozen until the 1st
Of May. 1t was an easy thing in his
youthful days to skate from Washing
ton to Alexandria or Marshall Hall or
Indian Head, right out in the middle
Of the channel Honestly, it was.
why, he used to do it pretty nearly
every day, between lunch and dinner.
Honestly, he did. But nowadays there
never is any ice. The river never
freezes and skates are a drug on the
market These are bum times Hon
estly they arel
That's the line Of talk that is being
handed out these sunny days, and IT
is enough to make a normal-minded
man tired enough to sleep for three
days without turning over This, how
ever, is only one feature of the activ-
tiles Of the Used-to-Be club. There are
other members who wall over the pass
ing Of everything from the recipe for
that famous timefused colonial punch
to the numbering stage coach which
preceded the present methods Of rapid
transit
But what's the use? Anything in
human guise that doesn't consider
these times of airships and open
plumbing just the best old times that
ever prevailed since the world began

What writer calls "the most ori.
ginal telegraph line in the world once
extended between the city of La Paz,
the capital Of Bolivia, and the town Of
Oruro. In this part of Bolivia there
are no growing trees and wood is so
difficult to procure that even the ordin-
airy household furniture Of the natives
is invarsanly made. not Of wood, but
of dried mud, or adobe. as 1t is called.
When the war broke out in 1880 be-
tween Chile and Bolivia this material
was used to construct pillars to take
the place of ordinary posts for sup
porting telegraph wire. with the addi
tion Of old bottles as insulators. These
pillars were subsequently built on
stone foundations and measured about
five feet square at the base, with
height of about Is feet They were
placed at intervals OF about 361 feet.
and thus held the wire at a height suf-
ficient to clear the only animals Of the
country, the lama and donkey. The
total length of the line was 156 miles
and it rendered useful service for
some ten years before being replaced
