Dear Sir: In response to your
inquiry, the members OF the military

cases were really tried during my

WASHINGTON, July 1s.-an brief
the commission held that the present
TAIL and lake class fate to Duluth
from points east of the Indiana. H.,
state line were unreasonable and that
the existing scale of the through rail
and lake class rate TO Duluth were
unduly discriminatory as compared
with rates TO Chicago. 1t was ordered
that the first class rate from the east
10 Duluth should not exceed 81 cents
a hundred pounds and that the rate
from trunk line territory to Duluth
rail and lake should not exceed those
TO Chicago. The commission also held
that the present joint through rail- and
lake rate from the east to Duluth
deprived Duluth "of the advantage OF
its location at the head Of the lake.
and resulted "in undue discrimination
against Duluth which will be relieved
in some measure by the reduction hero
required.

STRANGE BEDFELE0WS INDEED.
POSSIBLE IN ARIZONA POLITICS
Bull Moose and Anti-Hunt Democrats May Be Found
Fighting the Republicans and the Hunt Demo
Gratis in the Next Elec tion-Efforts to Form
an Amalgamation.

The same Is true of the Hunt crowd.
They cannot win without the help Of
the conservatives who are led by
George A. Olney, H h Linney and A.
r Lynch.
Therefore the present efforts on the
part of the conservatives to win Bull
Moose support They are suggesting
a mixed ticket.
In justice to Dwight B. Heard, or
ganiZer of the "ProgressiYes' in Ari-
iona and the recognized leader it must
be said that they are not carrying ca
their negotiations with him. 1t is
doubtful if Heard knows that anything
of this kind is in the air, and when
he does, he is likely to go into the
air himself Heard is almost certain
to be violently opposed to the scheme.
He will insist that the party take ad
vantage of the present split among
the Democrats to win with a party
composed entirely of Teddyites.
But there are other Bull AIOOsers
who would insure victory by cOmbin-
ing with the anti-Hunt Democrats
One who is favOrably disposed to the
plan is Robert 5. Fisher, candidate for
congress last fall
Before the present special session
Of the legislature is over, some scheme
Of combining the bull mOOsers and
conservative Democrats may be worked
out
