The Plymouth tribune. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1901-1911, 1910-05-26

By a vote of 40 to % the Senate
Wednesday amended and accepted the
House provision of the railroad bill
which places the defense OF suits be-
fore the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion in the hands of the Attorney Gen.
eral, but permits the commission and
shippers to intervene and even to con-
tinue the suit in case the Attorney
General withdraws. The period dur
ing which rates Of railroad companies
may be suspended by the commission
was extended from so to 40 days on
motion of Mr.. Aldrich. The debate on
the bill continued throughout the day
and was marked by some sharp pass
ages between Senators Rayner and
Hughes and also between Senators
Rayner and Ell1ins. An early adjourn
ment was taken to afford the Demo-
Gratis an opportunity to confer over
certain propositions made to them by
the regular Republicans. The House
spent the day debating a bill to extend
to the Territory of Hawaii the laws of
the United States concerning appro-
priations that are enjoyed by terri
tories within the United States. The
bill was passed, having been previously
passed by the Senate.

dence that the farmers arc becoming

fever, notice tho inordinatc growth OF
the cities from ono end of the country
to the other at the expense OF tho
rural population II Is mostly the
young and ambitious. the very flower
of the farm, who migrate TO the cities
because they feel that tho opportunities
for quicker and richer rewards OF ef-
fort are greater than on the farm. An
observer in a criticism OF ]. ]. Hills

In Iowa as being typical OF the country
at large. says that in 1856 1900 or 26

farms, while In 1909 the conditions had
become reversed and 1900 or eS per

and reasonable In price once more.
Reduce the fever-that Is easy to
say, but how? AYE, there's the rub.
There is one thing sure, however, and
that Is that 1t cannot be done wholly
from without Legislation cannot do
1t. Publicity OF accounts cannot do It.
At best they aro only stimulants. The
fever cannot be reduced by force. BY
legislation q few OF the most notorf-

and others scared Into laying low for

be done to stimulate the healing?

1. Let all moulders of public
opinion expose the underlying cause OF
high prices In high and low place,
fear of favor.
2. Cease to extol the nero accumu-
etor of wealth and the builder OF
