Maximum freight ana passenger
rate laws of four states, Missouri,
West Virginia, Oregon and Arkansas,
were sustained by the supreme court
IN sweeping series of unanimous de-
cisions, read by Justice Hughes. The
court held, however, that general
law was unjust to some of the smaller
roads and branch lines and was con-
fiscatory as to them. This means that
the state must allow these roads
rate which will be compensatory. The
state Utility commission now has the
power to fix these rates. All the 9th
er roads must. not charge more than
two cents mile. re- g.tFTnsa-.

HABAkkUk, THE NEGLECTED.


Short Chapter Of the Bible That Is Little Read.
One Of the disappointed statesmen Of the coun-
try on election night found solace in reading
Habakkuk, eighth of the minor prophets, as found
In the old testament. We doubt If many persons.
even such as are fairly familiar with the Bible,
frequently read this little work of three chapters,
says the Philadelphia Inquirer. 1t is seldom one
hears texts from this book preached upon.
AS a fact. nothing is known whatever of Habak-
kuk unless he be identified with one of the same
name who is mentioned in the apocryphal works
as having ministered to Daniel in the lions den.
The name is not Hebrew, but may have been as
sumed for literary purposes, as was not uncom-
mon in those days.
The gist Of the first two chapters of the book
is the grief of the prophet over the approaching
Chaldeans. The last chapter Is a poem with
musical directions, which some persons think was
written by another Of the same name or title.
Perhaps not many persons know that in this
book is found the familiar quotation: But the
Lord is in his holy temple; let all the earth keep
silence before him."

siOnary..

On a pleasant Sunday afternoon at
Savannah the colonel of a Pennsyl.
vania regiment, who had partaken lib.
orally Of the corn product, was warn
ing a young lieutenant against the
evils Of intemperance.
Never drink too much. my son. A
gentleman stops when he has enough.
To be drunk is a disgrace"
How can l tell when have enough
or am drunk" asked the lieutenant.
The colonel pointed his finger: do
you shee those two men sitting in the
corner? If you should shee four men
there you would be drunk"
The lieutenant looked long and
earnestly. Eyes, colonel, but-but
there is only one man in that corner"

WHERE HORSES HOLD OWN

In rural places and on the farms
the horse continues to keep in the
front rank of all power producers.
Farmers employ more than they used
to do to cultivate the same number Of
acres. On the arm the horse has
supplanted mar labor to a consider
able degree. Improved machinery of
every kind has greatly lessened the
number of men required to produce a
given amount of farm produce. but

GENERAL MACOMB
APPOINTSA AIDE

For the first time since he won his
star, Bfigadier- general M NJ, Mac0mb
has the two aides-de-canp to- which
he appointed End Lieut. Bernard r !.
Peyton, of the First Field Artillery as
aide, in addition to 1st Lieut.. Frank N.
Andrews, Second Cavalry, who has
been on the personal staff for two
years past. Lieut.. Peyton will enter
into his new duties tomorrow.
Lieut.. Peyton is native of Missis-
sippi, and graduate from West Point
in the class of 1910. He is one of the
most popular of the younger officers
at Schofield Barracks.
The order organizing the First Ha-
waiian Brigade is now in the hands of
the printer. but blank is left for the
office of brigade adjutant, General Ma
comb having made no appointment as
yet. 1t is. not quite clear whether the
war department will detail some Off
GER here as a regular adjutant general,
to fill the position, or whether Gener-
al Macomb will select some line Off
Ger for his staff. According to the
dEuly T6OISduiZdIIOu OFQcT, SOLl6 OTI-
gades have members of the adiutant
generals department as adjutants.
while others have field officers Of the
line serving.
The brigade staff. under the new
plan, is compact and applicable to
the needs of a field organization. There
is practically no paper work attached
to the command, the general COM
manding being the inspector of the
brigade in time of peace. He is enti-
tied to one adiutant, major: two aides,
and one clerk. There are several field
officers in this department well fitted
for the position of brigade adjutant,
and probably the appointment will be
announced within few days.
Although General Macomb has just
appointed an aide, he will have anoth-
er vacancy in his personal staff to fill
within two months, for by that time
Lieutenant Andrews will be MAN.
chu" and will have to return to his
troop.
