on the record of business actually done
In time OF normal conditions, exactly
as is done in the case Of coal mines.
The farmers contend for rating OF
elevators and shippers according to
business done. This is done as to coal
mines In a satisfactory way. The car
riers claim that it can not be done as
to grain but the farmers contend 1t
can be done. The present system works
to the advantage Of the line elevators
which are allied under the Western
Grain Dealers Association. and gives
them an undue advantage over the CO.

The railroads will prepare reply

Iowa State College Students to share
in College Government.
Special to Times Republican.
Ames, Sept. 24-At the greatest con-
vocation ever held at Iowa State Col
lege. President r. A. Pearson offered
to the 1000 and more students who at
tended share in the government OF
the institution that makes OF them
virtual CO. partners with the faculty in
responsibility in many particulars. The
plan is a long step in advance Of that
taken in any other western institution
and it's announcement was received
with loud applause.
In brief, President Pearson proposed
that each of the four classes of the
college elect student members Of the
principal governing committees Of the
faculty. including such prominent COM
mittees as those on moral welfare.
public service. public health, and the
music council BY authority OF the state
board Of education. these student mem
bers will sit IN all the meetings and
have an equal vote with the faculty
members on these committees. Fur
thenmore. It was proposed that the tax
laid upon students at Ames as else
where to pay for damage to college and
other property thru student miscon-
duct be placed at the disposal Of the
student body at the close of each year
after all charges against 1t are paid. At
present the fund amounts to $4,000 II
student behavior is good. there will be
a good deal more than that to be voted
by the students to whatever they see
At next. June.
These proposals Will be acted upon
at once by the different classes and
will be accepted without question. The
student body Is living up to tbs self
assumed responsibilities to suppress
fazing and thus far the sophomores
have treated freshmen with finest
courtesy. The sophomore committee
rendered splendid service to new stu
dents in getting them started In col
lege life-the first time in college his
tory that was done.

Des Moines, Sept. 24.-The long time

i Special to Times -Republican.
Des Moines. Sept. 23.--The active CO.
operation Of the state commission and
the interstate commission in the in
vestigation into the condition OF the
DEBORAH branch Of the Rock Island
shows how prompt and efficient Is the
work Of the federal government and it
gives hope Of some future effective CO.
operation.
Chairman Thorne Of the Iowa com
mission has long maintained that the
Iowa commission should have an en-
cheering department the same as the
interstate commission and that or sew
eral other states. He telegraphed c. c.
,McChord. member of the interstate
commission. suggesting that in view OF
the face that the supreme court has
held that the control of safety devices.
etc, was strictly under federal regula :
ton thru congress and the interstate
commerce commission, 1t might be best
for the inspection work to be done
chiefly by the interstate commission.
In accordance with this suggestion the
commission sent James C. Jones. one
of the interstate inspectors. to meet
Chairman Thorne and together they
visited last week the scene OF the May
nard accident.
II think this is splendid example
Of cooperation between state and fed
eral governments" said Chairman
Thorne. 81 hope it may be repeated in
important cases. In unimportant mat
tiers not affecting the national govern
ment of course we will have to do our
own inspecting. Wisconsin. Minnesota,
Texas. Missouri, Nebraska. Kansas
and Oklahoma all maintain corps OF
expert engineers competent to do their
work. l have long insisted Iowa should
do the same thing. A finding based
upon expert knowledge and skill of
disinterested engineer will have much
more force and weight, the same as IN
rate case-specific concrete knowl-
edge OF strength. weight OF rails. char
acter Of material, ETC.. OF a trained en-
gineer in our employ would be of great
help in making up our conclusions and
orders"
