Grain Rates Equalizcd.

Chicago, oct. 1.-The Southern and
Western railroads tariffs equalizing
grain rates to the southeast from all
points in Iowa, North and South Da-
kota, Minnesota and Nebraska so that
grain can be moved through this city
at rates equal to those of st. Louis
and other junction points became ef-
fective today. At the same time flat
rates go into effect on grain south of
the Ohio river from Cincinnati and
Louisville of cents a hundred
pounds less than through other Ohio
river crossings, in order to equalize
the shrinkage allowance which has
been made heretofore, so that all
gateways will be on a parity.

Washington, Sept. SO.-Working
quietly but steadily in a little old
building near the war department in
this city the commission appointed
under authority of congress to in
vestigate the Brownsville, Texas,
shooting scrape is engaged in the
last effort to prove or disprove the
participation in that affair of mem
bers of the 25th colored infantry, a
whole battalion of whom were dis
charged from the army by President
Roosevelt without honor"
This celebrated case, which former
ly occupied columns Of space in the
newspapers and became a political
issue, has apparently dropped out of
the public mind and nothing has been
heard Of it recently. There is, how
ever, a tremendous amount Of work
being done upon it and when the la
bors are completed II is confidently
expected that the question as to who
"shot up" Brownsville will be pretty
clearly established and that many Of
the colored soldiers who are punish
ed for their alleged conspiracy OF
silence" in the absence of direct
proof that they actually took part in
the affray will be exonerated.
The commission, which is compos-
ed of retired army officers Of high
rank, is headed by Maj. Gen. S. NJ.
b. Young. The recorder of the court
is Captain Howland, a young officer
attached to the Judge Advocate Cen
erals office, and probably no more
arduous task was ever laid upon an
army lawyer than that in which he
is now engaged.
During the three years since the
shooting occurred there have been
seven or eight separate Investigations
of the affair, beginning with that
made by the citizens of Brownsville
themselves, running through several
military inquiries, and ending with
that made by the United States SEN
Fate under the leadership of Senator
Foraker.
The records of all of these investi-
cations have been made part of the
records of the present court There
were 353 different witnesses examin-
ed. many of them testifying at prac-
tically all of the Investigations.

SPOKANE Is FIGHTING
FOR JUST RATES

Spokane. oct. 1,--This city contin-
ued a presentation Of its case here to-
day before the interstate commerce
commissioner Prouty in an effort to
show that cities Of eastern Washing
ton are Disseminated against in fa-
vor of coast points by the railroads.
It was represented that instances
were where merchants found it cheap
er to ship to the coast and pay freight
back rather than ship to Spokane di-
rect from the east under the Spo-
kane rates.
Prouty declared the railways should
change their rates on mixed carload
lots, canned vegetables and fish un-
less they were made to remove dis
elimination in favor of coast points

SENATOR Ia TOILETTE

The Daily News has been free
to criticize Mr.. La Follette's politi-
cal methods. He is a politician
and not at all particular as to the
means he may employ las witness
some of the "reformers" formerly
taken to his bosom and that now
are barking at his heels, with
Uncle Ike's money frothing at the
mouth but the citizen of Wisoon-
sin must be hopeless bourbon or
a driveling idiot that can not see
in Mr.. La Follette's stand in the
Senate on the tariff bill a thing of
credit alike to him and to the
State that he so ably represents.
In the masterful ability that he
has shown he has maintained the
high standards established by
those intellectual giants that pre-
coded him. But he has done more
than to bring ability and brilliance
and intellect and eloquence into
the tariff debate; he has used his
talents in behalf of those that need
them most in behalf of the ex-
plotted many upon whom falls the
burden of tariff privilege. Mil.

THE TRADE BALANCE

If the Republican party be not
in error in asserting that an excess
OF exports over imports makes a
favorable balance Of trade" on
May 81 our favorable balance Of
trade since July l, 1897, was &c.
4l6, 53,27S-all payable lin pure
gold" according to William Nc
Kinley. The favorable balance
since 1884 amounts to -, O39, $50, !.
800, likewise payable "in pure
gold"
Some steps ought to be taken to
collect this balance as We need the
money to meet current expenses
OF the government.

AN ABLE DEBATE

Thomas P. Gore, the blind U.
S. Senator from Oklahoma, has
proved himself most able de-
batter.
We have a copy of his speech
delivered in the senate June Is,
on the schedule of wood pulp and
paper from which we quote as fol-
lows:
l desire now to register my pro-
test against the increase of the
duty on print paper from - per
ton, as proposed in the House bill,
to a per ton, as proposed in the
pending amendment.
In the fiscal year 1907 our ex-
portations were six times as large
as our importations, a conclusive
proof that the tariff was not neces-
sary.
The right to exchange property
is as sacred as the right to own
property. Trade is blessing and
not a curse.
1t is charged that free paper was
being urged solely ''for the benefit
Of the opulent editors" There are
indeed, few editors who have
waxed wealthy, but there is vast
majority, approaching nigh to
unanimity, who were born poor
and have held their own ever
since.' There are many who would
not have to journey TO Africa in
order to find the tracks of the
wolf. There are many weekly
editors l know who have to wrestle
with the bread question like ST..
George Of old with the dragon.
In my judgment tax on print
paper is tax on intelligence. II
is fine on knowledge. 1t sets
premium upon ignorance and a
penalty upon learning. A tax on
print paper is shade on the lamp
OF enlightenment and n cloud over
the sun Of civilization. 1t is as
true IA it is ancient that a free
press is the palladium of liberty.
Tyrants, sir, have never been able
to thrive in that white light which
free press sheds upon the throne.
1t is the sacred duty Of the press
to speak truth to the king in the
hearing Of the people aud to the
people in the hearing Of the king.
Notwithstanding the first fiat Of
Omnipotence was. Let there be
light" yet this senate, in defiance
OF the decree, sets up its puny en-.
actment, Let there be night"

intellectual or moral, light 10

forever, Let there be light"

assistance II 10 not my part 70 c.

The getting of something for
nothing seems to foster naturally
a mean habit of mind and con.
science. Let a man once get a
pass into a theater, and he never
wants TO pay again. Give him an

and if he doesn't get it the next
he feels that he 10 robbed. So
with the man who lives in idle
luxury upon the exploitation Of
others. A petty direct tax upon
his unearned property, while the
poor have a penny left TO pay in
