Rank MaterIaIlsts,

In their outlook on life most Chi
nese are rank materialists, says a
writer in the Century. They ply the
stranger with questions as to his in
come, his means. tho cost OF his be
longings. They cannily offer papei
money instead Of real money at the
graves OF their dead, and sacrifice pa
rer images OF the valuables that once
were burned in tho funeral pyre
Yet no ono who comes into close
touch with tho Chinese deems this
utilitarianism a race trait. They are
In fact. capable OF the highest ideal
ifm. Among tho few who have come
near to tho thought OF Buddha or
Jesus one finds faces saintlike in their
depth OF spirituality. The material
ism is imposed by hard economic
conditions. II Is the product OF an
age long anxiety about tomorrow's

RATE QUESTION
IS NOT SETTLED

Contrary tC the imp, ession given
by the first reports az to the action
OF the commerce court on Nevada
freight rates. the effect of the
recent denial of injunction has not
so broad bearing as is expected
from a later ruling when the
Spokane. Reno and Phoenix cases
will be taken up specifically.
While the ruling has encouraged
the Nevada railroad commission,
they still wait with great interest
the outcome Of the courts con
81 Iteration of the Reno case, which
is expected now with very little
delay.
Commissioner J. F. Shaughnessy
Of the railroad commission, speak
ing last night on the present
ruling. explained the situation as
follows:
1.-THE order made has more
bearing on the Utah case than on
the Reno case and relates specifi-
cally to the former. The only way
in which Nevada is mentioned is
in prohibiting discrimination in
favor Of Pacific coast points in
fixing the Utah rates. The in
junction asked for against the
order of the interstate commerce
commission was denied and the
rates will go into effect November
Is 80 fer as any injunction is con-
cerned, but we must wait for the
decision on the Spokane, Reno and
Phoenix cases before we know we
are out of the woods.
I'm these last three the po nts
are nearly identical and the
strongest showing and contest has
been made on these.
"When the decision of the COM
morce court on the points relating
to Nevada is handed down, IL Gamble
easily recognized because it will be
referred to as the Reno case the
Spokane case and the Phoenix
CASE 1t will also receive the
larger share Of attention than the
decisions already handed down
because it will be Of greater i'm
portance and wider scope.
"The Nevada commission has
received word from Professor
Thurtell who was formerly a
member Of the commission. and
who is now an examiner for the
inter state commerce commission
that the remaining decisions
affecting Nevada and Reno par-
ticularly, may be expected without
delay" Reno journal.
