The Wisconsin-Arkansas Lumber Company, of Walco, filed an inter- vention to collect the rebate on all in- trastate shipments made by it during the same period. The East Arkansas Lumber Company of Paragould, con- signee in one of the Wisconsin -Arkan- sas shipments, also filed an inter- ventiOn to make a test of the case Some six other lumber companies also filed interyentions in order to become parties to the suit.
 In his decision, Special Master Wal lace declares that the miller sold to the consignee at the mill and his title to the property passed when the lum- Der was delivered to the common car rier. He showed that the price at the mill did not change, but variations in price were made to cover charges in freight rates, when such were ordered.
 The principal decision of the Ark ansas Supreme Court, upon which the decision of the Special Master was founded, was rendered by Sterling R. Cockrill, as Chief Justice of the Su- preme Court, and his son, Ashley Cockrill, represented the Wisconsin Arkansas Lumber Company in this lit- igation.

tests.

Little Rock, Nov. I7.-Short line railroads occupied the time of the Arkansas Railroad Commission Mon- day with their protests against the recent rough material rate of the Commission The shcrt lines do not want the recent rate, which gives cents per hundred pound for the first g miles, and an increase of a quarter cent for each additional ten miles, for they say it will put them out of bus mess. They ask for the old court tariff which was in operation while the rate litigation was pending, and which is one third above the old state tariff. The small lines declared that the present rate will permit the big mills to come in on their lines and take the business way from iie small mills on their line. After hearing from a number of the representatives of the railroads, the case was continu- ed until January 12, for further hear ing.
 The railroads represented at the hearing were:
 Ashley, Drew & Northern, Bauxite & Northern, Cache Valley, DeQueen X Eastern Doniphan, Kensett & Sercy, Fordyce & Princeton, Fourche River Valley, Freso Valley, Gould-South- western, Jonesboro, Lake City & East ern; Little Rock, Sheridan & Saline; Ouachita Valley; Paragould South- western, Pine Bluff, Sheridan & Sa- line, Prescott & Northern; Warren.

Little Rock, Nov. 17.-Special Mas ter U. c. Wallace Monday afternoon rendered his decision in the dispute between wholesale and retail lumber dealers over the rebate due from over charges collected on shipments while the state rat litigation was pnding. Both claimed the rebate, but Special Master Wallace decided in favor of the retailer. The opinion was a lengthy one. and went fully into the law in the case, giving the legal citations up on which his finding was based. The wholesalers gave notice of appeal tc the Federal court, but as Special Mas ter Wallace will not file his report un- til he has completed all settlements in the rebates, it will be we'll along in h new year before Judge Triebel can pass upon the matter finally.

 I would like to inquire why the Board of Health of this city fails to properly enforce it's quarantine regu- lations, and especially in cases where persons are exposed to scarlet fever. It occurs to me that there is too much neglect on the part of the public health officers in no protecting the public against the spread of disease Our children are exposed to persons who go to and from homes that are Quarantined and there Is nothing done or said to punish them under the law.
 There is a case of scarlet fever quarantined on West Second avenue, at Cherry, street, but the parents of the child, who is suffering with the courageous disease, are permitted to go to and from the house daily, walk up- on the streets and ride on street cars with other persons. This reckless enforcement of the quarantine regula- tions h what has probably caused several cases of scarlet lever in the city now.

A rock never returns to it's nest until 1t is quite satisfied that there Is no danger near.

RALEIGH TOBACCO MARKET.

demand. And the people of this city should

alton.
A ( special committee of the Chamber of
Commerce has been investigating during the
past month, the re-establishment of Raleigh as i
tobacco market. A letter to the Secretary a few
days ago from two large planters of Wake county
shows that such a step would be a wise one. 4
report on this matter will be made at the regu-
lar monthly meeting of the Chamber Of Com
merce on Tuesday night.
Wake county, it is said, makes the finest grades
of tobacco made in North Carolina. The demani
for this tobacco is greater and the prices better
than have been known for many years past, and
the reestablishment of the tobacco market will
be a step forward for Raleigh.
Every loyal citizen of Raleigh who can pos
sibly do 50 should attend the meeting Of tho
Chamber Of Commerce Tuesday night and help
push forward this work.
Raleigh should be proud Of Wake county and
Wake county should be proud of Raleigh. We
are the same people with the same blood, the
same ideals, and the same interests that affect
us all. Both the city and the country should
have this feeling and in unison work for the com.
mon good. The rc1estabishment of a tobacco
market here will put into circulation daily IN
Raleigh $4,000 to 5000. That is worth con
sidering in the development of this city.

with the problems of the State" The influence
of the ideals at the University, which are the
ideals of a community where a well-rounded de-
velopment is sought, will have a wholesome effect
wherever through extension work it shall be
exerted.

parture at the University and is looking forward
to a happier and a more efficient population as a
result of its Inauguration. Every worthy cause
in the State. every movement for a stronger. bet

able to cope with and conquer the problems Of
the day as they shall arise will be aided and
strengthened by the extension work OF the Uni

A LONG STEP

That the State IS to be immensely benefited by
the Justice Interstate Freight Rate bill, and the
creation of a special commission charged with the
power to see that the rates to be put into effect
are lust and fair to the people and to the raii-
roads.
The -intrastate freight bill which has been
adopted is declared by men who have studied 1t
carefully. and who are responsible for it, to be
one which deals justly with the freight rate ques'
ton. and makes such reductions as will enable
one section to have trade and commerce with the
other. Present rates in the State forbid this. an
intolerable condition which is remedied by the
Justice intra-state freight rate bill.
The creation of a special commission to handle
this matter adds to it's value, and we doubt not
but that Governor Craig will name as Commits
sieners men who will see that there is secured for
the people every right and every justice which IS
possible. The means back Of the measure are
said to be ample to secure such counsel and such
expert advice for the cause Of the people as IS
the need, there being $4,000 available under the
bill, with 5000 Of an appropriation made at the
regular session not yet used, and $1,000 more
available from the next year. Besides this a bill
has been passed to give the Corporation Commits
sion a rate clerk, with 5000 to be expended only
on the approval of the Governor, thus giving him
authority in the employment of such a clerk.
That means that the "sinews of war" are in hand
to be used in the cause of the people.
The Justice bill is indeed made stronger by
providing for a special commission to have the
matter in charge. Our preference, the preference
of the people, is for a Public Service Commission
to have in charge all matters connected with the
railroads. That would mean for an active and
continued fight for justice all along the line. But
the special commission will have a specific and
definite work to do which it can do in a way to
serve the industrial and commercial life of the
State and all it's people. And that makes for a
step forward which is worth while.
The fight has only begun. lie will not end till
all North Carolina has fair, just and honest treat
ment accorded it by the railroads. That purpose
is fixed in the minds of the people.

A MOVE FULL OF PROMISE.

The whole State has a particular interest in a
part of the address which Acting President E. K.
Graham, Of the University, made on the occasion
Of the celebration Of University Day Saturday at
the University on the one hundred and twentieth
anniversary Of the beginning Of that institution.
We refer to that portion of his remarks which
dealt with the recently inaugurated University
extension work. On this subject Professor Gra-
ham said-and it is a message of cheer to every
part Of the State:
I'VE hope through our recently organized Btu
reau Of Extension to make the campus ooexten.
sive with the boundaries Of the State, and while
keeping the standards Of University instruction
and scholarly research on the highest plane, to
put the University as head of the States educa.
tional system in warm, sensitive touch with every
problem in North Carolina life, small and great.
We believe that no civilization ever presented
more interesting questions than does our own at
this moment, and that the opportunities for in
~telligent sympathetic leadership were never more
varied and inspiring. We are undertaking this
extension work as a modest proposal of what we
hope will become a tremendous force in State
life, ard as an indication of Our desire to CO.
operate with every force in the upbuilding of
the State"
University extension work will be welcomed
by the people of the State. It will be good for
the people and good for the University. Edu-
cation is a vital need, but it is impossible for a
large element of the population to get to the
customary sources of education. This element
has not gone Of course without enlightening and
uplifting influences. 1t has had the press and
the pulpit and the example and influence and
stimulation Of educated men In the community
and these have all been powerful factors in the
elevation and uplifting Of the people. But the
University has been to a large proportion Of the
people something apart except for its indirect
influence. Now it is to be brought into direct
touch with the people at large. Instead Of the
people having to go Z the University for the in.
spiration and incentive that it affords, it will
come to those who can't go to it.
1t is proposed, as Professor Graham points ont
to put the University in warm. sensitive .o.oS
