CHAS. n. HYDE
Case Causes the Resignation of
Postoffice Inspector
Sharpe

Washington, Feb. "a. Tremendous
political influences brought to bear up
on President Taft to induce him to
keep Charles N. Hyde, millionaire land
%swindler, Of South Dakota, out of the
~penitentiary, are said to have brought
about the resignation of Robert s.
Sharpe. chief postoffice inspector, who
left the government service a few days
ago. Sharpe characterizes Hyde as
'the king of lard swindlers." After
years OF effort, the p~astoffice depart
ment convicted him of sending
swindling literature through the
mails.
1t vas proved that thousands Of
innocent persons had invested in
worthless lands through Hyde's litera-
ture. His conviction$n the lower court
was confirmed on appeal.
A few months ago Hyde began q
light to obtain a pardon before going
to the pe~nitentisry. He obtained as
counsel Wade Ellis, of Ohio, a close
friend of the president. and Mr..
Taft's first trust buster. Sharpe at
that time threatened to resign in case
Hyde was %pardoned, on ground that
such action would nullify his long
campaign to put land swindlers out of
business.
Sharpe's resignation followed short
ly after Assistant Attorney General
Harr agreed to a STAY of execution
when the federal marshal was about to
take hyde to prison. Sharpe says he
retires voluntarily to engage in private
business.

TRUST MOVES

Federal Control.
SQUEEZE OUT The WATER
La Toilette Bill for Physical VaIua-
ton OF Railroad Property Favor.
ably Observation-Disclosures Commits.
sion Plan Also Secures Approval.

Washington, Feb. 24.-Two drastic
moves were made in the senate look
ing toward a more sweeping control
Of corporations by the federal govern
ment. First, the La Toilette bill, pro-
yiding for a physical valuation of all
railroad property, was f~avorably re-
ported by the interstate commerce
committee, and, second, Senator Cum
minis made a report from the same
committee covering an industrial
commission for the supervision of all
Interstate corporations other than
common carriers.
While there seems no possibility
that either of these measures will be
passed at this session together they
lay a foundation for consideration of
the whole question at the regular
session of congress next December.
That session promises to be the most
important from an antitrust stand
point of any held since the original
Sherman law was passed in 1890.
The La Toilette physical valuation
bill does not bear directly upon the
antitrust report made by Mr.. Cum
minis, but the two reports are CO
related in that both wifi come up for
consideration at the same time.
Would Squeeze Out Water.
BY establishing the physical value
OF a railroad property, Senator La
Toilette and his associates believe
the interstate commerce commission
may more Justly fix the rates which
railroads should charge for freight
and passenger movement. Such a
valuation would squeeze the water
out of the railroad companies and re-
lieve the public from paying dividends
upon %purposely inflated stock values.
The leading feature of this report
calls for a commission with power
co-equal with those exercised by the
Interstate commerce commission over
railroads, telephone and telegraph
companies. This new commission is
to exercise jurisdiction over indus
trial corporations and is to have sub
stantially the powers which Theodore
Roosevelt advocated in the Progress
sive party platform and campaign. AS
the house will, of course, have other
remedies, that proposed by Repre-
sentative Stanley Of Kentucky, by
which holding companies are to be
outlawed, and that which will be of
fered by the Puio committee will be
the subjects of the early skirmlshing
In that body.

WEATHER PROPHET
Feels the Disgrace of a Blasted
Reputation

Miller, Feb. "a Humiliated and
downcast at his lost prestige as a
weather prophet. Tom Fastwalker, the
aged Indian government scout, has
been walking the streets of this town
during the severe SNOW storm, the
first of the winter, that came just
after the jolly old redman and his
company of a dozen ..kinsuen had
camped on the creek in the north edge
of the city.
Fastwalker had prophesied fair and
warm weather and backed up his pre-
diction by gathering about him his
young men, squaws with papooses, and
grandmothers, aud leaving their warm
quarters 40 miles southwest, to come
here and enjoy what they supposed
would be an early spring outing. In.
stead of the soft breezes from the south
TO make pleasant their camp lie and
vacation on tue open prairie, the biting
northeast wind and snow came upon
them almost as soon as their tepees
were raised above the ground.
The women and children sought
refuge at times in the stores in town
while Fastwalker went about asking for
feed for the ponies and fuel for the
camps. One squaw carried with her a
papooose not more than a few weeks
old.
The old scout is credited with be-
ing a weather prophet of renown
among his people. but this time his
prediction was reversed. with great
hardship to himself and his kinsm en-
who believed in his representations.

RESENT REPORT
Boys and Girls at Reform
School Do Not Mingle
Together

P~lankinton, Feb. 24.-Residents OF
this place, where the state reform OF
industrial school for boys ard girls il
situated. take exceptions to recent
statements made by sorue of those in.
terested in reform school legislation be-
fore the legislature at Pierre, which
give the impression that the boy and
girl inmates of the industrial school
are compelled to attend the same
school and are permitted to mingle to-
gether at all times, when, in fact,
such is not the case.
The male and female inmates of the
industrial school never are allowed each
others company, the buildings for
each being entirely separate and are so
conducted. The purpose of those Civ
ing a wrong impression as to this
meter is supposed to be in further
ance of a plan to have the girl in
mates of the institution moved to an
other town and a new state institution
built up for their care. This move
ment is being strongly opposed.

GOV. CLARKE MAY
ISSUE STATEMENT

Des Moines, May 5.-(Special.)-
Gov. Clarke will probably issue an IN
teresting statement in regard to the
blueeky law whether he vetoes IT OF
permits it to become law by grace
Of the general assembly. He has had
considerable experience in commercial
law and in passing on securities. He
is pretty familiar with what has been
going on in Iowa. He is not taking any
body's word for it but is making a
careful study of the whole situation
and will decide the matter according
to the fair statements Of all concerned.
The fact that the bill leaves SO much
to the discretion of properly elected
state officials and that they will be
presumed to enforce the law with due
regard to all legitimate interests and
not in a manner to be oppressive to
anyone is one feature of the situation
that will not be overlooked. All Of the
arguments against the bill seem to
have been based on the theory that the
state officials would make use of the
law to prevent legitimate business.
The governor has not yet reached a
decision. .-@ III
