Capitol Run

The Consolidated Coal company Of
Dickinson has for some reason failed
to furnish Ignite coal in sufficient
quantity to meet it's contract with the
state at the penientiary. 1t has been
necessary to purchase fuel of the
Washburn Coal company to help out
So long as the contract with the Con-
solidated Coal company is in force it
will be held responsible for the DAM
ages. The state board of control will
be in session tomorrow, when the mat
ter will be taken up for adjustment
The coal company claims it is unable
to secure the necessary cars to trans
port it's products.
Many complaints are coming in to
the railway commission against a
shortage of coal cars on the Northern
Pacific lines. The early winter has
caused big rush in fuel lines and
as a consequence there is car short
age. 1t is feared North Dakota will
have a coal famine if relief is not soon
forthcoming.
Under law passed by the late leg
islature the railroad commission is
given jurisdiction over telegraph and
telephone tolls Complaints are COM
ing in concerning irregular and con-
flicting tariffs and excessive charges
On party lines. The companies are
now making reports to the commits
sion and a uniform tariff rate will
soon be issued by the commission.
The law went into effect July /, and
it will take some time to procure a
grasp of the situation. The schedule
will include local and long distance
charges.

THE SUPREME COURT.

The Washington Star in comment
ing on supreme judge appointments
has the following to offer:
mr.. Bryan is still curious on the
subject of the. presidents latest SUI
preme court appointments-abo the
influences that prevailed and all that
and announces that he will have
considerably more to say" before he
is through. The court, high though 1t
be, is not sacrosanct. It's members
and their decisions are within the pur-
view of public discussion.
''But it has more than once hap
pened that criticisms leveled at that
quarter by politicians for political eff
fcct have been thoroughly disproved
by the event.
Take the case of Mr. Lamar. :; hen
Mr.. Cleveland selected him for ae
supreme bench the appointment was
condemned by many silver Demo rats
as play to Wall Street Mr.. Lamar's
refusal while senator to support his
party on silver was. they said, the sole
reason for the selection. The Mis-
sissippian, though educated for the
bar, and when young man a college
lecturer on law, had been in politics
tor years, and had no standing at the
bar.
And yet Mr.. Lamar proved to be a
capable and Industrious member of
the court. He did his share of the
work, and his associates thought did
it we'll. The appointment ranks
among the best Mr.. Cleveland made
while in the White House.
An earlier appointment, but one of
more recent interest because of the
recent death of the appointee, was
that of John NJ. Harlan When Mr..
Hayes sent to the senate the name of
the kentuckian. he was accused Of
using supreme court justiceship to
pay a political debt. General
Harlan, then leader at the Blue
Grass bar and the foremost Republican
in the state, had assisted in probing
the Democratic election methods in
the south in the campaign of the year
previous, 1876, and reported in favor
of the Republican national ticket.
And another charge was that the ap-
pointee was at most a rafting stump
speaker, with small qualifications for
anything else
"The times were warm, and the ap-
pointment was confirmed with diff
Guilty. But it was lucky day for
the court and the country wher II
was confirmed. For the court acquired
q member destined to serve more
than thirty years, and in that time
to sit with honor in many important
cases. He has just died, lamented
by both parties and all men, and no.
body more sincerely then by Mr.
Bryan. The man who for politica
reasons was so bitterly fought in the

other like luxuries demanded by the
present city gait. 1t is safe to say
that more than 80 per cent OF these
enormous sums is to satisfy the high
living habits of our cities. Very lit
tie indeed can be charged to the farm
ing population.
The supreme injustice of the de-
mand that food products be cheapened
at the expense of the producer is made
more glaring when we stop to consider
that it comes from that portion OF our
population who have become dissl-
pated in their expensive habits and
are asking that the food producers
shall not have their compensation In
creased to correspond with the In
creased capital which they must en-
ploy, because to do so would compel
them to curtail some Of their extrav-
agances.
The Remedy.
The food producer may we'll say to
them: Stop paying excessive prices
for your luxuries, and then even those
prices will become more reasonable;
those prices are maintained because
you seem willing to pay them. Stop
paying 5000 to $500 for your theater
seat and the price will drop to reas-
enable sum. Don't pay fancy prices
for what you can we'll pass up. and
two results will follow: First. those
prices will come down to reasonable
basis, and second, you will then save
sufficient from your earnings to pay
the farmer living prices for his pro-
ducts.
Therefore, the first remedial step
is to boycott the excessive prices we
pay for luxuries and not the barely

Centerville, April 22.-No county on

cross the state from Keokuk to Ne
braska City has stirred up more good
roads enthusiasm and keen rivalry IN
so short a time as developed In APP
panoose within the past few days when
it was known that the trail was soon
to be located. The expected arrival
OF a representative of the association
from Shenandoah for the purpose OF
getting report on the final location
stirred matters up decidedly in the
past couple days. When w. j. Slap
les appeared in Centerville Thursday
morning for the purpose of interview
ing the committee and going over the
proposed routes west to Promise City
he found that two rival trails west OF
here were each eager for victory One
led through Brazil and Plano, and the
other through Jerome and two miles
north of Seymour. The latter had the
support OF the Seymour boosters and
Numa, while Plano and the Johns
township people were intensely eager
for the north route.
