Charges Are Sustained

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-The Su-
preme Court today approved for the
present the practise of railroads
terminating at Jersey City allowing
lighterage charges to the Brooklyn
Eastern Terminal on freight trans
ported from Brooklyn to Jersey City.
The Interstate Commerce Commits
sion contended that the Terminal
Company was in reality Arbuckle
Brothers, sugar refiners, and that the
lighterage charge was discrimina-
ton against the Federal Sugar Re-
flning Company, at Yonkers, N. Y.

We need not ask whether the price

sle price too high or even less than
the virtues are worth. The price being

EQUAL SUFFRAGE
VICTORIES.

NlCTORtES.
We are told that equal outrage
met a reverse in Maine, Massachu
setts. Missouri. Nebraska, Arkansas
and q few other states" but this does
not cover the whole record which
the cause has made since January I.
The legislature Of many states have
decided to refer it TO the people for
acceptance or rejection. Among them
are Michigan. North and South Da.
koia, Montana and Nevada. The people
VIII vote upon it in these Ave states
in the next election. The Legislature
OF New York, New Jersey and Iowa
have also passed suffrage resolutions.
put these must be Endorsed by the
next legislatures before the people
can deal with them. Suffrage passed
each branch of the Yves. Virginia leg
isiature. but it fell a Iittle shor, OF
the twotkirds requirement which Is
rHeded in that state.
These facts show that 1913 has no,
been as bad a year for equal suffrage
as some Of its opponents pretend.
The cause has already triumphed in
nine states. In Wyoming, Colorado,
Utah. Idaho, Washington, California.
Kansas, Oregon and Arizona women
are permitted to vote or exactly the
same terms as men for all officials. up
to and including presidents. That
women in the three last named states
obtained this privilege in 1912. In that
year il was defeated in Michigan by
few hundred votes, but its friends look
for victory this time. as they do az an
early day in Wisconsin, which also re-
jccted 1t in 1912. Senator La Toilette
is one OF its most active supporters.
II is altogether probable that the won,
en- will have the full ballet in more
than third of its forty-eight states
early enough TO use it in 1916.
The proposition for an equal SUI.
frage amendment to the federal con
stitution is also to get hearing in
congress. Committees have been
planned to push suffrage resolution,
so that it can be handed to the states
before the present congressional term
ends, This is not likely to go through.
Many Of its friends in congress say
that this is question which should be
dealt with by the states in all its
phases. and independently of all
promptings by congress. The fact,
however. that an attempt is to be
made to get congressional sanction for
the proposition as an amendment to
the constitution shows that the cause
has left the comic stage behind and
that enemies as well as friends are
treating it seriously. The progressives
championed it in 1912. but its adyo-
Gates are predicting that the republi.
cans and the democratic platforms
viii carry suffrage plank in them

NATIONAL BANKS MUST
PAY INTEREST ON
DEPOSITARY FUNDS

Washington. April 30.-The fiscal
system of the U. 5. government was
revolutionized by instructions of Sec
retary McAdoo today. The first was
that after June ! all national deposi-
tories. whether active or not, must pay
per cent per annum for government
deposits. AT the same time he au-
thorized sl0.0oo.ooo more from the
treasury TO be put on deposit through
out the country. This increases the
government deposits in national banks
to 1854 900 on which the govern
ment will earn s1,o53,o00 annually.
Secretary McAdoo intends to order
more government money deposited
throughout the country. believing
that this is the best way to get more
money into circulation. Money from
the treasury on deposit in national
banks will have to be secured in tine
future 20 per cent in government
bonds and 30 per cent in state. city
or district bonds to be taken at not
less than 75 per cent or more than
