COMMISSION
RECOMMENDS
MINIMUM CARLOAD WEIGHT
HELD b. COMMISSIONER TO
ACT AS AN AID IN TRANS
PORTATION ECONOMY.

Washington. ID. C.-ln a supple
mental opinion upon the alleged un-
reasonable rates of transcontintental
railroads in transportation OF wool,
the Interstate commerce commission
today held that minimum carload
weight of twenty-four thousand
pounds as prescribed by the commits
sion imposes no unreasonable burden
of shippers, but actually increases
efficiency and economy of transpor-
tation; that rates on wool from New
Mexico to eastern destinations should
be reduced; that wool in western ter
ritory should take fourth class rate.
The decision disposes of cases insti-
tuted by the railroad commission OF
Oregon and National Wood Growers
Association, which have been pending
several years.

AS A CORRECTION

STERILIZATION or CRINI

cases, for children; the whipping post
for violators of certain laws, and
sterilization of assailants of women,
We're advocated by Governor Baldwin
of Connecticut in an address deliver
ed this afternoon before the Cover
nor's Conference here. In his speech
Governor Baldwin declared that he
was more in sympathy with the elias
sical school OF penology" than the
new or noisier one, mainly made up
of sentimental humanitarians or the
oretical psychologists.
There is a certain crime of which
one seldom speaks Governor Bald
win continued. Its very name has
come to be banished from our news
papers Yet the thought of it is a
daily terror to every woman in the
south and brings sense OF uneasi-
ness and constraint into the lives of
her northern sisters. 1t is the cause
of most of those lynching cases which
disgrace our civilization. 1t is to be
kept down only by the severest meth
! ods
Is it too much to say if the courts
are not ready to apply these, the peo-
pie will? The people who may thus
| bring some ruffian to his death will
not be the best people in the com
munity. They may occasionally seize
the wrong man But has a conviction
ever yet been had in the United Stat
es of any one of mob of lynchers for
hanging a negro accused OF rape?
THAT crime does wrong to a
woman which many of them have
deemed worse than death Such {

speaker, Sir Thomas Watson, who en-
pressed a hearty welcome, and hoped
the distinguished guest would return
to Bermuda after the expiration of
his tenure as President. Responding,

what would happen in the states if We

There would be continuous perfor-
nance which would exceed all the
theaters could afford in the way of
amusement. Yet | cannot help think
ing the idea admirable, because ii at-
fords the House the opportunity to
review the changing conditions.

Governor Wilson was interrupted
several times during his speech by
cries of Hear. Hear" and there was
a round of dignified applause when
he concluded.
"Of course, it would be impractc-
/ able to discuss the tariff annually in
the United States,' he said later.
THE schedules are too complicated. -
