Lower Freight Rates.
Decision Wipes Out the Back HAUL
Lays Down Fair Rates

WASHINGTON.-In what are
known as the spokane-Reno-Pa Pacific
coast cases. the Interstate commerce
commission today ordered material
reductions in freight rates from the
east to points between Denver and
the western terminals Of the trans
continental railroads.
For many years the railroads have
exacted from shippers to intermed-
late points such higher rates on east
ern freights than were charged for
the much longer haul to Seattle, San
Francisco and other Pacific coast
points.
The theory has been the railroads
musl meet water competition to the
Pacific coast. The high rates to in
termedlate points. arbitrarily fixed,
have been defended by a comparison
with the coast rates. plus a theoret-
ical back haul from the coast to the
inland stations along the lines.
The commission recognizes the
right Of railroad to meet water
competition to Pacific coast points,
but practically wipes out the back
haul rates to inter-Roclky mountain
territory. II lays down what It con-
siders would be fair and pust to yari-
GUS freight zones in the west, and
gives the railroads until October Is
to adjust their trafics accordingly.
The commission also lays down the
important principles that hereafter
railroads will not be permitted to tx
arbitrary market limits, and that
hereafter commercial conditions rath-
or than. the will OF railway traflc
managers shall control rates on trans
con tnental transportation.

Last Tuesday afternoon a large
number Of water users in this vicin-
ity met at the opera house for the
purpose Of discussing further means
of securing water for this commun-
ity
The meeting was for the sole pur-
pose Of discussing the district irri-
cation plan and Mr.. Frederick steig-
meye Of Salt Lake. was secued to
meet with the settlers and discuss
the situation. Mr.. steigmeyer is the
one who made such an eminent sue

most successful irrigation engineer
in the west. He stated that he was
here to meet with the farmers and
learn something Of the condition
that exists. He would not agree to
take the task Of organizing the dis
trict or have anything to do with It

ONE OF THE BEST EDUCATION
Al INSTITUTION IN STATE
OF IDAHO
EacuIty for This Year win Contain
Able Instructors Fresh Prom East
ern Schoois.-New Railroad With
In Eight Miles Of Albion.

Professor c. <. Cave of the state
Normal School at Albion spent day
IN Mountain Home recently, Prof
Cave has charge of the German Work
in the Albion school and is travel
ing this summer in the interests Of
the institution
According to Prof. Cave the pros
poets for the ensuing year at Albion
are by far the best in the history Of
she school. A larger attendance ev-
usr before Is assured and recent ac-
quisition to the faculty will make the
school work of a superior quality.
Pres. Axoline has recently return
ed from his annual trip east where
he has made selection of new teach
ers from a large number Of candi-
dates. The high standard of the in
S-itution offered at Albion is largely
due to the extreme care exercised in
ahe choice of teachers
The following new instructors
have been engaged for the coming
year: Frank &c. Honara. A. M. Supt.
of Training. Mr.. Honara is one Of
The best known of Iowa educators. He
has had a long and eminently sue
-cuessful experience as Superintend-
ent of schools in some Of the best
towns of the middle west. He comes
10 Albion from Drake View Iowa,
where he now has charge of the
work in history Of education and
other professional subjects. His
coming will mean much to education
In Idaho.
H. l.. Smith, B. A.. Preceptor and
Instructor in English. Mr.. Smith
is a graduate of Knox College, IL
hnois. AS college man he made
q great record in debating, oratory
and athletics He was member Of
ahe college debating team. repre-
senting his school in the state ora
toricaI contests and was star in
college football and track athletics
The Albion Normal expects under
his leadership to retain the debating
championship of south Idaho. He
will also be of great help in main
tanning the gecord held by the school
in athletics.
The course now offered at Albion
is now equal to that of the best nor
NAL schools of the East and West.
The full course is now one of six
years. High school graduates may
still complete their course in two
years. Strong special courses are
offered in domestic science. manual
draining and music.
Prof. Cave states that Mountain
Home is the only town of any size
in Southern Idaho not represented
at Albion. The school may be reach
ed from here with less than a days
travel and the expense there is less
than in any other of the state ed
uRtional institutions.
The new Raft River road will be
within miles of Albion. This road
will be completed by Christmas time
and an electric line in the town is
confidently expected.
School begins Sept S.

Those who wish to work out the To- cation of the steamer CorwIn out in the ice of Boring have only to solve the following equation:
 C equals A plus B minus D.
 c being the unknown quantity rep resenting the Corwin and her position out in the ice.
 A equals six miles of solid ice. which Is constant
 F equals one long and one short spark in the park. that only Fred Weller can catch on his wireless ma chine. That is what they are saying for the power Is there but like cleo tricity cannot be seen.
 D is fourteen miles of drifting ice. the first four miles moving westward at the rate of three miles an hour the other ten pushing it north and east at the rate of two miles per hour.
 Everything being known but there should not be any trouble in solving the problem.
