SPOKANE AND FREIGHT RATES.

Interior cities of the Northwest are
up in arms over the recent decision OF
the Commerce Court holding that
cities which have water competition
are entitled to lower railroad rates
than cities which do not have such
competition, and suspending the opera
ton of the Interstate Commerce Com
missions ruling in the Spokane, Reno,
ana kindred cases. They will heartily
support the proposed bill of Congress
man Simms of Tennessee to abolish the
court, which, since its organization
has, in half dozen instances, hamper
ed the good work of the commission in
controlling and curbing the extortion-
ate common carriers.
Spokane is hopeful. 1t plans
campaign to secure absolute term
inal rates based upon that part of the
decision which sustains the long and
short haul clause of the common act
1t will conduct the fight with its usual
spirit, and Moscow, with every other
city tributary to Spokane, hopes it
will win Once this commerce court,
with it's injunctions at hand to the
railroads, is out of the way, there is
hope for the people. Just so long as
the judicial temperament is in the
saddle, however, the manipulators of
railroad property will find their plea
of investors interests" more potent
than any contra-effect upon the con-
sumner in the adjustment of conflicting
interests.
There are signs, however, that the
people of this country will not submit
much longer to the rule of the rail
ways. The abolition of the commerce
court will likely be the first step. And
others will follow until some reasona-
Bile basis for making railroad rates
can be determined.
Such a basis will be founded on a |
reasonable profit for service rendered. |
based upon a physical valuation of
the railroad property, and no other
The railroads have a bookkeeping
convenience called the ''ton-mile"
which means the cost of moving a ton
of freight one mile That, and no other,
should be the basis of the rate
Loading, unloading and switching
charges upon carload OF through
freight are equal whether the destina-
ton be 1000 miles or 1000. The cost
of handling a ton of freight per mile
over the road is the same whether it
be bound for Spokane or Seattle. In {
short, if Spokane is three-fourths of
the distance between Chicago and Sc
attic, it should pay three-fourths of
the charge of hauling through car l
from Chicago to Seattle, and the same {

DIDN'T HAVE COIN
BUT MADE BIG SHOW

PARIS, France, Nov. 16-Accom-
panied by two young girls
he arrived one day at a quiet hotel
and dumfounded the host by pre-
senting a card on which was the fol-
lowing. "Auguste Durand de Belle
fond de Courtney, colonial administra-
tor of the first class, doctor of law
Knight of the Legion Honor, charged
with a mission of responsibility. He
said one of the girls was his wife. the
other his sister-in-law
Next day the great one appeared in
the street in wonderful uniform,
which dazzled the townfolk. The
principal inhabitants fell over each
other in their anxiety to become ac-
quainted with the exalted parsonage
who had honored their town.
Auguste bought a house and so
acres of land for 10000 francs which
he did not pay, and proceed to give
lavish orders for the furnishing and
fitting up of the new colonial estab
lishment. The shopkeepers of Gran
vile view with each other to secure
the patronage of M. Durand de Belle
fond de Courtney.
Auguste had one rare stock of luck.
A couple of cars containing gunpow-
der had arrived at Granville adj
dressed to Administrator General
There was no such person in the town,
and no one knew what to do with the

If Moscow don't look out Pullman
will beat it to paved streets, said g
citizen this morning. Lewiston and
Colfax have both paved, and Moscow
is just as able to do so as either e.f
these places. If we delay because
taxes are high, or for other trivial rea-
sons, we will be talking paved streets
when Gabriel toots his trumpet on
the resurrection morn. The time to
pave as just as soon as we can. This
seems to be the prevailing sentiment
among Moscow business men.

consignment until a postman be-
thought him of the great Auguste
and took him the letter. Auguste set
soldiers to guard the cars, and when
the proper official appeared at the
station he was there to receive his
nowledgements. This episode
served as an Introduction to the Of
ticers lof the regiment, whom he
joined while it was engaged in
manoeuvers, and he actually rode in
state by the side of the general.
He was invited to dine at the Off
GERS mess and the guard turned out
and presented arms every time he ap-
preached the barracks
Everything might have gone all
right only that one of his creditors,
being pressed for cash, became some
what suspicious. This person very
unkindly wrote to the Project of La
Manche, asking, for some information
about M. administrator, and a de-
tective was sent to make inquiries, the
result of which is that M. Durand de
Bellefond de Courtney, for all his titles
and particles and crosses and uni
forms, was marched off to the lock-
up. There it was speedily found out
that he had no official position, and,
what was worse, no money.
He says he belongs to a good fami-
ly in La Vendee and they will pay
for everything.

The Spokane rate case is one in
which Moscow is just as much inter-
ested as is Spokane. 1t is of vital in
terest to every SOUL of whatevere age
within the Inland Empire, and the peo-
pie should not be slow to make their
power felt If it is to be a fight to
the finish let the people accept the sit
uation as it is and get into the fight.
We cannot afford to submit. The ex-
tortion is intolerable. The injustice
is nothing short of robbery

SCHOOL AT OZARK
Has Just Closed the Most Successful
 Year in Its History

Ozark, June s-(special)-- )--The Dale County High school is closing the most brilliant term of its existence, both as to numbers and the work accomplished.
 The commencement sermon was preached at the Baptist church Sunday morning by Rev. E. H. Jennings of Dothan. A spe- cial programme of music prepared from classic authors was rendered by local tal- ent. MT. Jennings preached again at night. Rev A. L. Blizzard, the Ozark pas tor, filled the Dothan preachers pulpit morning and evening.
 Monday evening the senior class played the "Rainbow Kimona" to crowded house.
 Tuesday evening the literary address was delivered by Dr. w. s. Neighbors, president of Suffers college, Bristol, Tenn, which was followed by the delivery of diplomas by J. E. Acker, chairman Of the board of trustees, to seven young ladies: Misses Bess Adams, Essie Me Leod Willie Belle Mcleod, Annie l.. Cul- lens, Susie Kolb, Flossie Deese and Min nie Lee McNair
 It is with much regret that Ozark gives up Prof. w. Paul Morley, the supernten- dent, who goes to Jasper, after having been elected to be his own successor here.

POLO MATCH IS
 AGAIN POSTPONED

New York, June 6.---Weather today caused a second postponement of the second match for the international polo cup. The match will be played tomor- row, however if something extraordi- nary does not intervene. Polo associa- tion representatives said tonight that tomorrow's weather would have to be a much worse brand than that of today to cause another postponement.
 The series of postponements has ere. ated a serious situation for the British team The army leave of Capt. l.. St. George Cheape and that of Lieut. A. Noel Edwards, who hit all four goals Tn the game last Thursday, expire on June IF. It has been understood that these officers, to make sure ofreaching England in time. felt they would be obliged to sail from here Saturday In that case. should the visitors win to- morrow they would have to go into the third match with two substitutes in the lineup, Capt. J. l.. Barrett and Lieu tenant Palmes. neither of who had been regarded as strong.
 The announcement was made tonlght that in the event of a British victory tomorrow. the deciding match would be played Saturday.

 in he world, and he is almost right. He is now working for the location of a mod ern brick plant at Leeds, and there is a possibility of early success. There is ar abundanee of fine material with all other advantages close at hand.
 He iS also watching with paternal inter est the development of the Standard Pol tland cement plant. The capacity of the plant is now 1200 barrels per day and the owners are planning to double the capacity
 N Nien this is done Captain Elliott will be one of the happiest men in the district
 The early location of Leeds and its de- velerment by Major Tutwiler and Captain Montgomery form one of the interesting chapters in the history of the Birmingham district.
 These gentlemen were among the build CTS of the Georgia Pacific railroad into Birmingham in the early sos. Major Tut wier was assistant engineer in the road s construction.
 After the line had been cut through the hills and the beautiful Cahaba valley was entered the officials and the engineers were struck by the beauty of the location and the evident fertility of the soil.

 depot was located not because there vas an immediate den,ald for it. there was no town. but the builders in their minds eye could see inevitable develop ment and the accumulation of tonnage.
 MT Tutwiler decided that he wanted some of the land in the community for development purposes. He consulted his superior officers and when he found that it would not interfere with any of the plans of the road he and Captain Mont gomery bought several hundred acres of the land where now stands the town of Leeds.
 With his prophetic eye Major Tutwiler could see a great development in this wonderful mineral district He was right in his conclusions that during a reason able lifetime he would see some of this development reaching over the Cahaba valley
 It was here that he laid the founda- ton for his fortune. and his valuable ca reer in the development of this section.

Montgomery, June 6.-(Special.) )-Accord- ing to decision of the supreme court of Alabama, as handed down today, George Lige will be compelled to pay the death penalty for the killing of Clar- ence McCauley in Etowah county in 1906. The death sentence was passed by the Gadsden city court in May. 1910, the date of the execution having been set for July in the same year.

MARRIAGE PROBLEM
 PUZZLES CHICAGO
One Couple Married When They Go After Ped
 dler's License

Chicago, June 6.-The marriage prob Sem as 1t exists in certain aspects in bChicago came into more than the usual June time prominence today when while one judge was announcing that in his opinion many thousands of we'd dfngs of the immediate past were illegal and void. another was hearing how man applied for peddler's license, was given a marriage permit instead, and was married before he knew what was going on.
 Municipal Judge Stewart threw con- sternation into the thousands of new homes created through the marriage parlor conducted in the county building by Justice of the Peace William SPceY of Evanston, who has been crikfelseo sn connection with the so-calleh child marriages the last week Sna who was
 busted from the county building. Th'
 court said nqn@ of the weddings th' -..sl orracfated at were of legal stand
 ing and they would have to be done al over again.
 At the same time Philip F'ishmin was telling Judge Cooper how he was mar ried without knowing it; he wanted the marriage dissolved. He said he inquired of clerk in the county clerks office for peddler's license. With him was a young woman. a friend. lie was handed a slip of paper, he said, and taken with the girl to Justice Stacey's parlor. He told the court he thought he was swear ing to something on the permit when he and the girl said the customary T do." Later he found he had wife. They tried to make the most of it, he said, but it wasn't a success during the course of it's trial
 Sheriff Michael Zimmer came to the aid of Dan Cupid, however, and is en- listing the aid of all Cook county judges in providing June with all the wedding facilities lost otherwise. He has asked them to meet him and hear a proposi- tion that they all agree to perform marriages free of charge for those de- Eiring their services.
