COMMISSION SUSPENDS
FREIGHT RATE ADVANCES
Back Haul Charges from Pacific
Coast to Be Investigated

WASHINGTON, Aug. 9.-What are
known as the back haul tariffs from
Portland, Seattle and Tacoma to points
in the state of Washington have been
suspended by the interstate commerce
commission pending an inquiry into
their reasonableness.
The tariffs were to have become eff
fective August on the Northern Pa
cific road, but the action of the COM
mission restrained the line from put"
ting them into effect
The proposed advances in the back
haul rates were made by the Northern
Pacific in the face of decision of the
commission that the rates ought to be
reduced 20 per cent. In the hearing
of the back haul case last autumn by
the full commission it was agreed by
the railroads that the reduction of
1923 per cent probably would be fair.
In spite. of this statement, however,
the advance of 25 per cent was made.
1t was the advance that the commits
sion suspended.
The hearing in the matter will take
place in Chicago August 29 by George
N. Brown, chief examiner for the COM
mission

ROME, Aug. 9.-It was reported to-
day that Cardinal Merry del Val, the
papal secretary of state, was trying,
through official, semi official and pri-
vate channels, to reach an understand
ing with the Spanish government.
1t is believed the Vatican will an

the Vatican, and the staff of the Span

between the Holy See and Spain, the
decision of the Spanish representatives
to be present at this function or to
assert themselves has been awaited
with great interest.

CHINESE BOYCOTT ON
AMERICAN GOODS USELESS
Merchant of the Orient Says Ma

PORTLAND, Ore, Aug. 9.-Ameri-
cans need never fear boycott of their
more, important exports by Chinese,
according to w. Fl. Wickham, busi-
ness man of Hongkong, who is on his
way to London after passing % years
in China,
"The principal products the Chinese
get are flour and kerosene" said Mr.
Wickersham. "They cannot place a
boycott on flour because they cannot
get it in any other country The same
is true of kerosene. The American
market can never be Disseminated
against.
"China is becoming a cigarette
smoking nation. Cigarettes are being
substituted for opium. The tobacco
is shipped from the United States and
manufactured in China. Cigarettes are
carried on mems backs far into the
interior The prices are high, but the
Chinese pay them"

SPAIN DOES NOT SEEK
RUPTURE, SAYS PRIETR0

i'ARIS, Aug. 9.-The Echo de Paris
today prints from it's correspondent at
Madrid an optimistic interview with
Garcia Prietro, the Spanish minister
of foreign affairs, in which the min
lister intimates that the Vatican is
likely to abandon it's present attitude
and resume negotiations win Spain
for the revision of the concordat. The
minister said, however, that he was
ignorant of the fact if Cardinal Wives
Y Tuto, as reported, had made inter-
cession with King Alfonso.
To the question: "Is the separation
of the church and the state the ul-
innate aim of the Spanish govern
ment?" Senior Prietro replied:
I'VE have not reached that point
yet. Catholic Spain does not desire
separation and Rome knows it."

PROSECUTING WITNESS
DELAYED ON STREET CAR

Delay of a street car yesterday per-
mitted Edith Schrimp to escape the
law. Yesterday afternoon was the time
set for the woman to stand trial in
Justice Summerfleld's court on a charge
of disturbing the peace of Mrs. Viola
Kerr. The complaining witness did not
put in an appearance in court at the
appointed hour, and on motion of the
district attorney Justice Stelle, sitting
for Justice Summerfield, dismissed the
case and issued citation for the wit
ness to appear in court and show cause
why she should not be punished for
contempt.

riedly entered and explained that the
delaying of a street car on which she
was a passenger had caused her to ar
rive late. She was reprimanded and
then sent on her way rejoicing.

A Great Newspaper.

The twentieth anniversary edition
of the Des Moines Capital, the tri-
butte of his associate workers on this
paper to the editor and proprietor,
Hon. Lafayette Young, is one of the
greatest editions of a newspaper
ever issued west of Chicago. Over
fifty tons of paper were used in its
making, enough to make string
reaching from Des Moines to Buff
falo, 665 miles. In its hundred
pages may be found many beautiful
pictures of Des Moines' late inn
provements, and its columns TEEN
with interesting facts which show
the superiority of Iowa over every
other state in the union as a place
to live, to thrive and to enjoy the
best in life. 1t is magnificent and
fitting tribute to one. of the greatest
citizens of the greatest state in the
union, a man whose ability, whose
integrity, whose infieXibible fidelity
to conviction, and whose big, kind
heart is known at nearly every fire.
side; whose influence and power is
felt wherever himself or his paper
may be found; who in twenty years
has built up a great newspaper from
a weakling until it is without q
superior and with few equals. The
citizens of all Iowa join with the
people of Des Moines in congratulate
ing Mr.. Young, and in wishing him
the same measure of progress and
success in the future as has been
his during the past two decades.

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.
Items of General Interest in Our
City Schools, Reported by
Superintendent Richter.

The high school enjoyed two
events in the week Immediately pre-
ceding the vacation. The one was
a splendid and interesting talk by
Editor Green on the Panama Canal.
He gave a good history of the events
in history leading up to the acquisi-
by this country as we'll as a terse
description of the work as it is now
being directed by the United States.
The other was a concert given by
Mr.. Soukup, with Victor grapha-
phone. A number of his best records
were used and we had an hour with
artists as it were.
The high school base ball team
organized Tuesday with Ed. Shima
as captain. Mr.. Mason of the science
department will continue as coach.
All of the boys who are interested
in base ball and wish to try out will
be given an opportunity. The only
games scheduled with certainty,
thus far, are with the High School
at Cresco April %, and the with the
same team here May 5th. A num-
Der of other games are scheduled
tentatively. Prospects look very
flattering for a splendid team.
al
from one of our leading universities
recently that one of our graduates,
now enrolled in that school had
made five A marks out of possible
eight. The other marks were B.
This is a splendid record when we
stop to consider that A marks are
seldom given, excepting for the best
possible work; the range reduced to
percentage basis would be from 95
per cent to 100 per cent.
The grades are taking up some
work in gardening. So far as the
movement here is concerned it is in
its beginning. Other cities have had
the work in hand for a number of
years and the garden work is part
of the required work of the school.
We do not know to what extent we
shall be able to carry out the work
this year but something will be done
of which we may report later The
only suggestion that we wish to
make is that the children be en-
couraged to do most of the work
themselves. We are taking up the
work for that purpose and do not
wish the child robbed of the de-
velopment and enjoyment that he
receives from doing things for him
self. The girls will take up the
work also. In fact we know of a
number of girls that have their gar
dens made and we'll in hand now.
