KANSAS IN RATE WAR
Adverse Report on Two-Cent
Fare Bill.
LEARN MISSOURI DECISION
McPherson's Ruling, Knocking Out
Law, Causes Renewal of Fight
HadIey Not surprised-Attorney
General Proposes to Fight to Finish.

Topeka, Kan, Mar 9.-The senate
committee on railroads yesterday sub
mitted an adverse report on the two
cent fare which had already passed
the house. This came Immediately
upon the receipt of the news of the de-
cision of Judge Smith Mcpherson,
holding the Missouri two-cent fare law
unconstitutional.
Later Gov. Stubs in an interview
said:
My opinion that the legislature of
this state should enact two-cent fare
law is not changed by the decision in
the Missouri case. | do not believe
the court of Missouri had any evidence
that the rate in that state was not re-
munerative or confiscatory excepting
what evidence the railroads them
selves furnished"
Kansas now has two-cent fare rate
under agreement between the rail-
roads and the state pending the de-
cision in the Missouri case.
Hadey Not Surprised.
Jefferson City, Mo-. Mar Gov.
Hadley did not appear surprised when
informed that the two-cent passenger
fare law had been knocked out by
Judge Mcpherson, in the United
States circuit court at Kansas City.
"All can say at this time" said the
governor, is that the decision is not
correct one. 1t does not end the
fight, however. The state will surely
appeal to the United States supreme
court. OF course, this question is in
the hands of the attorney general.
while the decision of Judge Nc
Pherson is simply the opinion of one
Judge, 1t must be accepted as the law
until the questions involved are sub
mitted to the supreme court of the
United States.
THAT think the decision is wrong
goes without saying. The claim thai
the rates fixed by the freight and pas
senger rate laws were unreasonable
low, and therefore confscatory, wa.
based upon expert testimony as tt
how the common expenses should b,
divided between state and interstat,
traffic. The theory of the railroad eS
perts is that the expenses common t
the state and interstate traffic SHOULD
be divided in proportion to the rev
enue produced by the two classes Q
traffic with an added increase of cos
for the doing of state business. Thi
theory seems to me manifestly wron
and absurd

BACK UP THE NEWSPAPER

We commend the following clipped
from contemporary to some of our
business men who do not advertise
or encourage in any way their local
papers:
'1f the people of any community
were as loyal to the interests of their
town or city as the newspapers, what
a splendid competition this country
would see.
3. .."But they are not. Nor is any con-
siderable part of the people. Nor
are all the business men or the man.
ufacturers. That town succeeds just
in proportion to the zeal with which
its leading citizens back up the pat
riotism of its newspapers.
"The true newspaper devotes col
umns and pages of space to boosting
the city in which it is published. The
most loyal and devoted boosters of
any city are found in its newspaper
Offices. There is a sneering class Of
people in every city who, finding no
good In anything, decry the newspa-
pers as mongers of sensations and as
destroyers of character. They de-
mand the news, and the newspaper
that is a faithful mirror, holds up to
its readers the reflection of their own
doings. If the community is bad, its
newspaper pages will show it. If it
Is good its news articles will show it.
But the paper itself, it is far in
advance of the procession. With
here and there yellow exception it
stands for the better things, stands
increasingly for the betterment Of
business conditions, constantly seeks
to bring more business to the town.
Better than that it stands for the
moral upbnilding of its citizenship,
stands for better civic conditions.
'In many cities the editors have an
uphill task, and lonesome one.
There are times when the most de-
voted newspaper man will lose faith
In the value of publicity. But hon
est publicity never fails, and in the
end honest and enthusiastic devotion
to city's interest will awaken sufi-
Gent spirit among the people actual
ly to accomplish things"

WOMAN KIDNAPER TO
BE RELEASED SOON
Mrs. Whitla Said to Be Opposed
to Prosecution.

Mercer, Pa, March 30. - The pre-
liminary hearing and safe return to
the Mercer Jail of James II. Boyle,
and the rumor that his woman COM
panion may escape prison and soon
regain her liberty, are the latest de-
velOpments in the Whitla Kidnapping
case.
The opinion is spreading that Mrs.
Boyle will not be prosecuted and that
she will soon be allowed 10 depart
There is said to be no local proof to
connect her with the abduction and
as she absolutely refuses to cid the
authorities, the supposition is that
she will soon be free.
1t is said her prosecution is not
eagerly desired by Mrs. Whitla,
whose wishes are likely to be respect
ed. No results are known of the at
tempt to locate the alleged accom-
plices, and it appears as if Boyle is
to bear the entire punishment for the
abduction. Boyle waived examina-
ton and was held to the grand jury
in $4,000 bail

years and Senators for six, it is
claimed that the Senate IS less re-
sponsive to ill-considered public
clamor, more conservative in framing
Legislation and more careful in ex-
penditures.
These are the claims, but they are
not borne out by the facts.
It was the Senate that held up the
country for many weary weeks dur
ing the misery of 1898, during the
repeal of the Sherman act. 1t is in
the Senate that the interests hope to
butcher the pending tariff bill.
Nor is it true that the Senate is
more careful with the peoples money
than the Lower House. On the other
hand, the record shows that it is
much the more extravagant body of
the two.
The New York Tribune has made
an examination of all the. appropria-
ton bills as they passed the House
and Senate during the last three
years. The following is the show
ing:
In 19O7-S the House made the APP
preparation bills $780, S3,OO0; the
Senate, 1886, 100000.
In 19OS-9 the House made the APP
preparation bills $7s7, OS7, 600; the
Senate, SCI $4,000.
In 1909-10 the House made the APP
preparation bill $S73,936,OOO; the
Senate, 1887 ,9O8,OOO.
The total for the House was 3d.
1913, 100000 while the total for the
Senate was $2,536,3O7 900.
Thus in three years the Senate has
increased the eountry's expenses over
what the house House had deemed
sufficient, $142, 7O1 900, or an average
of $47, 567 900 a year.
/ In many ways the United States
Senate is a somewhat expensive lux
ury.

dent Of ohio State University.
New York, March 80 - DR.. James
H. Garfield, librarian of Columbia uni
versity and distinguished as an edu-
Gator, died in St. Luke's hospital after
a short illness from apoplexy.
His illness was brought on by a
serious shock following a streetcar

truck struck the car in which he was
riding, and the pole of the truck went
through the side Of the car within a
few inches of Dr. Garfield, who was
taken to his home in a state border

Columbia college for ten years. Be
fore being elected to this position he

THE EDITOR.

The editor is a man with a soft
snap. He reads the papers and mag
azines, writes most of things he
knows least about, and meets the peo-
pie who desire to know him. He
loves them because they are so for
getful of self and so sohcitous of his
well being. They all want to help
him. One-half of them want him t.
print news which he does not recog-
nize as news, and the other half want
him to suppress what he recognizes
as good news because they do not
regard it of any value or Importance
The editor has more people trying to
help him do what he doesn't care to
do than any other individual on earth.
In the midst of it all he keeps his
poise, seldom reveals the fact that he
has any mind to speak of, and lets
his visitors leave him with a feeling
of having achieved something which
they haven't. That is why they say
he doesn't do as he agreed when he
agreed to do nothing. They do not
realize how independent he can keep
by being agreeable-they still have
to learn that being agreeable is not
akin to being a fool.-Girard, Qll.,)

Mrs. RovIe,s Defense.

Pittsburg, March 3O.-News that
Mrs. Boyle may never be brought to
trial for her alleged part in the alb
duction of Willie Whitla was received
here with interest. Detective Harry
Perkins, who has been very active in
the case, declares that the woman
will have a very plausible defense if
she is given a hearing. From what
Mrs. Boyle has told me-" said Mr..
Perkins, Il believe she will have a
straightforward story to tell on the
stand. She will say that she had
been sick for two or three weeks pre-
vious to the kidnapping of the boy, and
that her husband, Jimmie Boyle, had
come to see her and told her that the
boy had been placed in their care by
it's father. Her story, l think, will
continue that she understood the boy
had been exposed to smallpox and
that they were to get large sum of
money from the father for taking care
of it,"
