LEGITIMATE DRUG COMPANY
RAILROADS OPPOSE SHIPPERS CLAIMS

| Representatives of eighteen diff
ferert railroads were present at
Cleveland, Ohio, Monday for the
hearing of the complaints as to
railroad rates which were argued
before the Inter State Commerce
Commission by L. L. MARCEL and
o hers whom the Commission
allowed hearing. Mr.. MARCEL
who returned home Wednesday
evening states that decision is ex-
pected in about 90 days. His
claim for PREPARATION for overcharge
In rates was over $500 and the total
of claims presented Appropriated
$40, 900 which caused the railroad
men to protest vigorously against
any refund. Their argument was
that the oil shippers had all been
charged the same rate and that at
time when higher rate for oil was
secured, so that no shipper had
really been damaged by the ~ cents
per hundred rate. Other COM
plants were similar to that of Mr..
MARCEL, so that four were heard as
one case. The Mutual Oil Co. of
Lawrence and the National Rein.
ing Co. of Coffeyville were repre-
sented at the hearing.
The railroads commended before
the Commission that the rate of IT
cents reduced from the 22 cent rate
which was put in effect September
7 was really too low. In line with
this is the notification received from
the Santa Fe by Mr.. MARCEL since
his return which cancels the III
cent rate after Jan. 20, 1912 be-
tween Chanute and Nebraska and
Iowa points, except Omaha,
Council Bluffs and intermediate
points. This effects his shipments
to Fremont but not to Beatrice,
Nebr.

Cold Temperature Of Novem-
Der a Record Breaker

Last month was decidedly the cold
est November of the three during
which the record has been kept
for Chanute by Chase w. Brown,
observer for the national weather
bureau. The mean temperature was
40 and . fraction degrees compared
with 40 in 1910 and "a In 1909. The
local record is In line with that kept
at the state university at Lawrence
where the mean temperature was
37.96 degrees which is 50 degrees
below the November average for the
40 years for which the record has been
kept. The minimum for the month
in Chanute was degrees on the 18th
and the 2Sth as compared with a
minimum of 20 for November 1910
and of Is for 1909. The minimum of
rs degrees at Lawrence came on the
10th; this was much below the
minimum average Of 1872 degrees for
the 40 year period but was not the,
lowest November temperature re-
corded there.
The maximum temperature here
was 81 degrees on the 18th thus
making a monthly range OF 70 degrees
in contrast with range OF 6S5
degrees at Lawrence where the highest
temperature was 70 degrees on the 10.
The Chanute maximum was above
that of November 1910 of II degrees
but not equal to the maximum of "a
in 1909. The greatest daily range
here was 81 degrees on the 18th which
was greatly In excess of the maximum
range of 80 and 40 degrees respectively
in 1910 and 1909.
The precipitation has varied greatly
during the three Novembers which it |
has been recorded here. Last month |
it was 1.O3 inches and an inch and a
half OF snow In addition but In
November 1910 there was but a trace
of rain and no snow. November 1909
had however $40 inches of rain. The
rainfall at Lawrence last month was
l 81 inches which IS slightly below
the 40 year November average; the
town also had inches Of
snow. Days here listed as party
cloudy were II and cloudy 10 whereas
at Lawrence the month was less
cloudy than usual and days were
entirely clear. In Chanute the
previous Novembers particularly in
1910 were much less cloudy.

GOOD CONSTITUTION.

OF all the constitutions created il
the United States there is but Opt
capable of living through the ages and
to govern people regardless of sOcia
and economic changes. This cOnstitu
ton was framed by the greatest meT
of a great age and is the oldest in
America. Ii is the constitution OF the
United States.
This constitution was recently at
tackled by Victor Berger. the Socialist
member of Congress from milwaukee,
His speech blossomed with Oratory and
glOwed with hyberbOle. But it was
lacking in practical, plain fact. 1t
was the remOnstrance of person
against something he knew not Of.
The fathers provided not n code OF
laws in the four thousand words of
this instrument. but machine where
by laws might be made. 1t does not
levy a tax, state salary, or enact a
detailed law. But it provides for the
levying of taxes. for the salaries of
officers, and for the creation of laws.
har. l.,,,
sailant of the constitution since itS
creatiOn-the doctrine of state rights
1t is true that many constitutional
have been added, but the
first ten are a mere bill of rights, and
have nothing to do with the fabric OF
OF the remaining five,
the eleventh and twelfth are the only
ones involving change of govern
mental functions. and they are of
secondary importance. The last three
We're caused by the free
ing of the negro from slavery.
The eleven seeding states We're re-
admitted to the Union without altering
The constitution. Thirty-three new
states have been admitted under the
original instrument. Millions of square
miles of territory have been added,
md billions of wealth have grown up
lnder this constitution.
The fundamental characteristics OF |
he constitution are its guarantee of |
Ongevity. 1t is not too detailed to |
prevent its perfectly governing a ma
ion of many times the present size of |
he United States, and under any con
litiOns that are likely to arise. Its only |
is that it can govern only
epublican form of government.

Henry w. Grady

! Henry WOOdfin Grady is best known
as writer and speaker, yet it is moi
only his great command of the Englist
language and his power as an orator
that have stamped him one of the
SOuth's foremost citizens. His great
love and devotion to the South, his
peerless personality, beautiful charac
ter and unselfishness-these are the
qualities that have made him 4 truly
great man.
He was born i'm Athens. Ga, April
"a, 1850. AS a boy he was leader OF
all his youthful acquaintanceS; as a
man he was the leader in all things that
were for the betterment of his state,
his country, and the South. Grady
became a writer for the press very
early in life. At first his work was
confined TO the newspapers of the
South. But wishing a wider field of
duty, he went East, carrying with him
letters of recommendation from influ-
ential men of his state. He finally
settled i'm Atlanta after securing an
interest in the Atlanta Constitution
1t was while writing editorials for
this paper, it is said, that his destiny
was fixed
In every field that Grady labored,
his results ere so wonderful that in
giving 4 short sketch of his life it
seems more like fairy sto'y that a
record of ruth. But his achievements
as newspaper man should be dwelt
more upon than any other.
He was graduated from the Uri-
versity of Georgia at Athens in 1865.
During his college days. he was loved
by all his associates for his bounding
spirit and his kindness Of heart. In
his class work. he was not n grind"
but only studied enough to enabla
him to pass from one class to a higher
one Like many other great writer's,

THE "CUPID PAGES"

A Pittsburg school girl recently Lau
ra Gean Libbyed herself out of the in
stitution she was attending. BY this Is
meant that because she sought ad
vice through Cupid page" she
was suspended from school by the
faculty. This girl wrote to 'profes
sional authority" on matters of love,
described her charms, told of her love
affair with a young man and asked
the guardian angel of the lovelOrn if
she thought the youth really had SER
oss intentions.
lin signing her name IN. NJ. c. S. Stu
dent" she disclosed her identity to Il
member of the school faculty. The
girl was suspended lin order to main
tain the dicipline of the institution
This incident brings up afresh the
uuSStlOH vi whether Ut HOt Il HtWSpd-
per or any other publication, should
maintain a department devoted to
puppy love" questions. Above all
else, love is an individual matter.
Whatever advice must come, let the
mother or an intimate friend who
knows the persons and the conditions
give it,
It's all right, it might be said, to
have capable persons write on ques-
tiOns of friendship and love, so long
as they generalize But it is unwise
for any one who is stranger and ia
miliar with conditions to read a letter
of a few lines from some one seeking
advice, then proceed to tell that one
to do this or that, or that this Or that
is true.
While cleaning out the comic sheets.
it might be a good idea to look around
and see if the Cupid pages" don't
need little attention.

BECAUSE OF THE MiCROBE.

All agree that streets should bt
kept clean. The unsightly appearance.
of an unswept street is not, they say
a good advertisement for the town
But important as is this argument in
favor of cleaning the streets, there is
a more vital one.
When you are walking down a
street and a guest of wind fills your
eyes and lungs with the dust which
has been lurking near the edges OF
the sidewalk, just reflect that you nave
probably inhaled, along with other va
rieties, a large number of tuberculo-
sis germs, and that the dust which has
almost blinded you contains many 9th
er microbe. A street that is not clean
is the home of germs. 1t is more than
unsightly. Ii is a menace to the
health of the community.
Cleanliness is a law of beauty. 1t
is also law of health. Clean the
streets if for no other reason than be-
cause of the micrObe.

THE POSTAL SAVINGS BANK,

second postal savings bank is now
to be established i'm each of the states
OF the Union. Hannibal is the city sc,
lected for the new bank in Missouri.
The history of the postal bank since
its establishment, January third of this
year, has been one of unsurpassed and
unqualified success. 1t has more pa
tronage and has been better accepted
than even the most optimistic hoped
At the end of the first six weeks bus
mess the bank has a total deposit of
$133.S69. and March 81 this had jump
ed to $2O1. .96l, showing that the bank
was having a healthful and rapid
growth.
The bank at Carthage, Mo-, is fourth
of all the postal banks, having total
deposit of sl2,554. Leadville, Colo, is
first and Pittsburg. Kan, is sixth. This
is evidence that the West is devoted
patron of the new bank.

tai bank was to furnish a secure place
