NO COAL RATE INCREASE.
Proposed Raise Suspended Until
March IL Next.

The proposed increase In coal rates to
Washington, which was to have become
effective yesterday. and which was to
have been made the source Of complaint
before the interstate commerce commits
sion by local coal dealers, was suspended
along with the suspension of the general
increase of ) per cent in all freight
rates. These rates We're suspended until
March IL next, and the commission on
November ~ will enter upon hearings to
determine the ACCESSIBILITY of allowing
the railroads increases to stand.
Local merchants take the stand that
if the increase Is allowed it should be
made effective around the close of the
fiscal year. If increases In coal rates
were allowed to become effective at this
time. it was asserted, it would work a
hardship on the dealers on account of the
fact that many of the government coal
contracts are made about July i. and the
charges are based on the freight rates
then in force.

FACING THE FACTS.

New York Times: Mr.. Taft declar.t
ID in Washington on Friday afternoon
that it would take two generations at
least to educate the Taos In the Philip
pines to capacity to assert and defend
their own rights. This is true Of the
great body Of the people Of the is
lands. At the time when the former
president was making this obvious
statement the governor general Of the
islands was listening to a delegation
of Moro chiefs in Mindanao, who petit
toned him for the continuation Of
American government in the district
and protested against Filipino con-
troll. Governor General Harrison re-.
spseted their. protest and promised to
srant their petition;
The coincidence is striking and
significant. It throws q Hood Of

THE UNWELCoME MIR. ARMOUR.

Oousht the president Of the United
States to be accessible to all who
think they have business with him?
the other day that he ought not to re-
ceive a call from Ogden Armour, the
Chicago packer, and, feeling that way
about it, he declined to receive Mr..
Armour, according to a habit which
MI. Wilson appears to have. No ex-
plantations have been offered. and no
diagram of the situation has been fur
nished. 1t is not difficult, however. to
guess what was the matter. We take
1t that Mr.. Wilson would have no OBJ
lection to meeting a nan merely be-
Gauge he was rich, and if any mill
ionaire otherwise qualified wishes to
call on the president his wealth will
probably be no obstacle. 1t happens.
however. that Mi. ogden Is one Of the
defcndan ts in a somewhat famous suit
which is being prosecuted by the gov
eminent. Mr.. Armour avs that his
proposed visit had no connection
whatever with that result, and we are
bound to take his word for it. Eut,
suppose Mr.. Armour had spent an
hour talking with the president. and
they had spent the time discussing
the currency bill, OF the weather, or
the crops. or whatever 1t was that Mr..
Armour wished to talk about, what
would have been the result. Dispatch
Is would have gone out from Wash
ington saying that ogden Armour.
the millionaire packer. defendant in
n Of the famous beef packing cases,
was closeted with the president for an
hour today" and then VIC would all
be watching the progress Of the case
to see what bearing that visit had on
Il. The public would have assumed
that the case vas the subject Of con-
%versation, and the president naturally
wished to avoid any act which might
bear that construction. 1t looks very
simple.

n. G. I.ARIMoRE.

News of the death Of y. q. Lari-
more, founder of the city Of Larimore.
Of this county. will lie received with
regret by a great number Of North
Dakotans who had known and honor
ed him for many years. Mr.. Lari-
nor made heavy Investments in
Grand Forks county many years ago,
and for a long time he was in active
management Of his properties in the
western part of the county. He
brought to the business Of farming
the enterprise and progressivness
which had characterized him all his
life and he has always been enthus-
iastic over the possibilities Of the state
in, which. for a considerable part of
every year. he made his home. In
later years advancing age and failing
health made it necessary for him to
withdraw from many Of the activities
Of his earlier life, but he has kept in
close touch with agricultural condi-
tions here. and with business condi-
tidns generally throughout the nation.
A.large part of his time Of late years
has been devoted to the work of the
Trans-Mississippi Commercial con.
grass. an organization devoted to the
promotion of the business interests of
the great western territory. He Ia
bored faithfully in this, and for some
years he was one of the officers of the
association. Mr.. Larimore was a pro-
gressive. predetermined man. He
was honered and respected. and his
death will bring sincere regret to all
who knew him.
