HENSHAW PLEASES
V|N|TA AUDIENCE
Shows Remarkable Knowledge of De-
tails of Dealing With Public
Utility Corporations.

The citizens of Vinita, last night,
had the opportunity of listening to one
of the best posted men in the state, in
regard to the affairs of public utility
corporations. This man is G. A. Hen
shaw, candidate for the democratic
nomination for corporation commits
sioner, who spoke to fair sized crowd
at the court house in this city.
Notwithstanding the extremely hot
weather last night, the crowd listen
ed attentively to the address through
out, and it was evident that the speak
ers thorough knowelge of his subject
made a favorable impression on the
crowd
Mr.. Henshaw discussed at length
the recent fight of the corporation
commission, in which he was employ
ed as attorney, against the injunction
sought and secured by the railroads
against the enforcement of the two
cent fare provisions of the state con-
stitution. In this he showed great
knowledge of the methods employed
by the railroad attorneys to thwart
the work of the corporation commits
sion. In concluding Mr.. Henshaw
warned the people to get out to the
polls on next. Saturday and defeat the
proposed amendment to article 8. of
the constitution, as he showed con-
clusively that that amendment would
strip the commission of its most vital
power
Mr.. Henshaw is grand master of
the state l. o. o. F. and there were
members of the local lodge in attend
ance last night.

NO COMPLAINT FILED
AGAINST EASTERN LINES

Washington, d. c.. June 4.-Attor-
ney General Wickersham said at the
close of business hours OF the depart
ment Of justice Friday that he had
not received any complaints touching
on railroad freight tariffs filed with the
interstate commerce commission fix
ing rates in the territory east of the
Mississippi river. The government is
not taking the initiative for the pur-
pose of ascertaining the manner in
which the new rates were determined
on. Presumably its course will be to
await the filing Of complaint as was
done against the rates made by the
Western Traffic association in the
western trunk line territories where
the Omaha committee charged that
there had been an agreement or con-
spiracy in fixing the tariffs filed with
the interstate commerce commission.
1t was pointed out at the depart
ment today that the shippers had not
yet had time to examine carefully the
new rates so as to be able to ascer-
tain their full extent and character.
