II you had highly intelligent thor
oughbred horse to which you vert.
greatly attached, what would you do
for him in order to bring him to the
highest, point Of efficiency?
Would you teach him, at great incon-
venience and after many repetitions,
to smoke from ten to fifteen cigars a
day, and would yon mix with his oats
ar the way from a pint to a quart Of
arcehol7 Would you REINFORCE this by
overlooking his stomach with highly
spfced food and add all the narcotics
that were in the market, such as tea.
coffee, ETC.. Would you keep him in
q heated stable without any fresh air;
make him sit up at all hours Of the
night and permit all the veterinarians
tn the neighborhood to hold consulta,-
lions and operate upon him as often
az they needed the money?
u And II you did all this, what sort Of
4 race would you expect that horse to
win Life.

at the Penn relay meet recently, and
Robert Gardner, who tied with Bah
cock of Columbia in the pole vault last
year, are still in college. Yale can't
reasonably hope for much this year.
Cornell. as usual, Is not very strong
in the spring, but has some corking
good men for the distance events.
However, with the squad Trainer
Moakley has on hand the Ithacans are
hoping that the Red and Whites
chances in the Intercollegiate may be
better when the time comes around
than they seem to be now on paper.
At Harvard things seem to be little
better than they were last year, al.
though none Of the performances in
the class games were especially nota-
BILE.
Princeton still has Cook, Dwight,
Spears and Simons, who scored in. the
Intercollegiate last year, and several
other men who look very promising.
Michigan has three stars who will
probably show up very well In the In
tercollegiates. Craig, who won the
220 last year, is. running better than
ever. Homer should have things his
own, way in the shotput, and .Hanavan
will give. PAUL the run Of, his life in
the mile. 80
Dartmouth has some very good mate
rial this year, Of which Harry Hillman
is: making the most.
Harry Babcock, the captain Of the
Columbia team, seems to be about the
only man the Blue and White has who
can be relied upon to do much Of any
thing.

NAY TAKE HAND In RATE CASE
1nter1tate Commerce Commission In.
teteated in sanborn Ruling.

Washington. May l8.That the. In.
ternational commerce commission
may appear before the United States
supreme court as an intervenor In
connection with the rate case APP
pealed BY the state Of Minnesota is
the belief OF Edward +. Young. for.
NOR attorney general. who has been
retained IS special Counsel for the
state. Mr.. Young has been In confer:
encs with members ,of the commission
since his arrival there.
He finds them Agreatly interested in
the Minnssota canes and especially in
that feature Of the Sanborn opinion
relating to the Raluation OF railroads,
IN which the COURT held that the cost
Of reproduction was the proper basis
for the valuation OF such property.
The commia1Dion has held that In
yaluing such property the original
cost shall be taken into consideration.
II the inter3tate commerce commits
sion interven{s in the Minnesota cases
Mr. Young sleeves cit will be as a
means Of fof tanning, through opinion
4 ~ the supreme court, judicial recogni-
ton OF the Commissions contention as
!: to the proper method of ascertaining
railroad values. This point bears as
stroHglyt on interstate commerce as 1t
dog onsintrastate commerce.
Momentous Questions Involved.
In discussing the Minnesota cases
. Mr.. Young said:
The Minnesota rate cases are re-
garded In legal and official circles. at
Washington as being the most impor-
tapt that have reached the supreme
court for years. They involve every
phase OF the problem Of railroad reg.
ulation, including the method of valu-
Ing railroad property and the relative
powers OF states and the nation over
commerce.
/ 1.-THE circuit court at St. Paul held
that the state cannot regulate their in
ternal commerce. because changing in
terstate rates necessarily and directly
Affects Interstate commerce. This
holding would destroy the theory Of
the coordinate Sovereignty Of the
state and the nation eyer the subjects
within their respective. Jurisdictions:
But the part Of the Minnesota deci-
sion which attracts most attention
here is that part fixing the cost of re-
production as the sole measure, of the
value Of railroad property, ignoring
the original investment and the CAPT.
talization.'

MILLIONS FOR POWER PLANTS,

Great Falls.-A mortgage for $751;
100000, given by the Great Falls Town
site and Power company to the Bank
ers' Trust company of New York, trus-
tee. was filed with the county clerk
here.
The mortgage covers all the land.

the bonds issued for the development
of the Rainbow Falls power site, now
in operation, and $4,000,000 more will
be utilized in the construction of
power plant at the Great Falls of the
Missouri.
The remaining 100000 will be
used largely in the identification of
100 miles of the st. Paul road to be
built from Lewistown to Great Falls.
Arrangements have been made be-
tween President Earling of the st.
Paul railroad and the president of the
General Electric company, the holding

company, for the identification of that
portion of the St. Paul.

GREAT FALLS IN RATE KICK,
Interstate Commerce Complaint A.
sails Great Northern Tariff.

Great Falls. - Alleged discrimina-
ton on the part of the Great Northern
Railway company against Great Falls
in the matter of freight rates has been
brought to the attention of the Inter-
state Commerce Commission by bust
ness men of this city.
A complaint was mailed to the com.
mission by Boyd Brothers, plumbers
of Great Falls, which recited the spe-
cific case Of a shipment of carload
of bath tubs from Pennsylvania from
the Minnesota Transfer to Great
Falls. 1t was asserted 9 cents more
had been charged per cwt than would
have been assessed if the car was sent
on to Billings, Mont, distance Of 240
miles further.
The matter was first taken up with
the railroad, which claimed that Bill
ings was a competitive point with
other railroads, and that it was nee
essary to arrange rates at that point
to meet competition. Great Falls
business men claim that inasmuch as
Great Falls is directly intermediate
with Billings on the Great Northern
system, and is a competing center for
the trade Of this territory, this city
should be entitled to at least the
same rate as Billings in order to al
low Great Falls to secure fair pro-
portion of the trade.
