NOTE Of ALARM
FROM RAILROADS
Short Hauling Rule Scares 'Em---A
Chance for Spokane to
Benefit.

bying. the western presidents CON.
cluoed there was nothing they
could do.
The clause referred to prohibits
the railroads from charging more
for a short haul than for long
haul, but all trans-continental rates
are built upon the infraction OF
this rule.
Rates from the Atlantic sea-
board, for instance. are less to
Portland and Seattle than they are
to Spokane. 400 miles inland. The
reason for this adjustment il to
be found in water competition. To
secure any business from the sea
board. the railroads are compelled
to meet the competition OF bOats
from New York to the Pacific
coast.

Had the railroad regulation bill be-
come a law as prepared by Wicker
sham, it would have practically de-
stroyed all that has been accomplished
in the last twenty years to give the
government some measure of control
over the railroads of the country.
No attorney general of the United
States has ever been revealed in just
the position Mr.. Wickersham now oc-
cupies.
Instead of having drawn a bill that
would tend to place greater safeguards
about the rights of the peopleS.of the
United States, as might naturally be
expected from a public officer who is
receiving salary on the assumption
that he is giving such protection to
the people, Wickersham has been
charged on the floor of the senate
with having attempted to take from
the masses even such inadequate safe
guards as they now enjoy, while at
the same time giving the corporate
interests the right to merge and do
other things that the Sherman law has
forbidden them from doing. @
A CORPORATION MAN.
At the time of Wickersham' ap-
pointment it was asserted that he
had been selected by President Taft
in Difference to the wishes of the cor
porations of the country, who had
spent money and coerced workingmen
to vote the Republican ticket. and
who demanded as compensation for
this service the privilege of naming
the attorney general.

William S. Keyser yesterday pur'
chased through the agency of c. E.
Dobson & Co. the property known as
the Heinberg property at the corner
of Palafox and Chase streets, paying
therefor about $125,000. The pur-
chase was made from J. E. and Theo-
dore Baars, who acquired it from the
original owners a short time ago, the
fact of which was kept quiet.
The property, which is vacant, has
a frontage ON Palafox street of 1872
feet and on Chase street of 125 feet.
1t is considered the most valuable
piece of unimproved real estate in
the city of Pensacola, and the price
paid is probably the highest that a
piece of real estate of it's character
ever brought.
Mr.. Keyser has been negotiating
for the property for several weeks,
but did not succeed in closing for it
until yesterday. It is very probable
that improvements will be made at
an early date.
