Of his honesty OF purpose and of the
fact that he is an able man and a
forceful speaker.

Eastern Paper consratuIates River
cities in Securing Desired Re
suits ia Recent Fight
Waged.
coMMENDs ASSOCIATION
Traffic Organization Did Heroic Work
In Getting These Re
ductions For
Clients.

The work of the Mississippi River
Tratic association in the efforts to
secure freight rates for the river
cities that would be fair to all of them
has been recognized over the country
as big thing and the victory secured
is proportionately large
The cities organized. as has been
explained previously. for the purpose
OF mutually fighting before the inter
state commerce commission at Wash
inston the railroad forces in their
efforts to secure a new and higher
rate. Delegates were sent from the
association and strong fight was
conducted along the lines that would
be productive of the best results.
The railroads did not give up the
battle without struggle, as might be
imagined, and the victory has been
heralded throughout the country as q
notable one, although the rates affect
only the towns on the Mississippi
river.
The New York Merchants associa-
ton prints a daily paper called
Greater New York" and IN the issue
of May IS there was mention made OF
the rate fight and OF the far-reaching
effect the decision would have on thu
rates for the river towns. The fol
lowing is the item as It appeared in
the Greater New York"
For many years the communities
in Iowa located on the Mississippi
river, namely Keokuk, Fort Madison,
Burlington, Muscatine. Davenport,
Clinton and Dubuque, have complain
ed OF the adjustment OF rates from
New York applicable on business
destined to said points for local con-
sumption or for merchandising pur-
poses. The city OF Springfield. H.,
likewise complained OF the adjust
ment Of rates from New York to that
point. as compared with the adjust
ment of rates enjoyed by other citiss
IN Illinois
THE interstate commerce commits
sion has rendered Its decision in these
important cases. with the result that
the carriers have been called upon
and have now made effective COM
plete revision OF their rates to upper
Mississippi river crossings IN Iowa
and Illinois, which In turn has in
volred some of the Missouri and Iowa
points, and great many points in
Illinois.
with the reduction in rates as
hereinafter set forth. based upon the
order Of the commission, New York
should be able to exten0
their trade relations with cities IN
Iowa and Missouri.

gree to every man. woman and child
in our climate. It u that rundown
condition OF the system that results
from impure. Impoverished. devital-

ALLIES WEWOF
WAR, BY DR.. ROSE
Nations Believe Their Very Ex-
istence Is in Peril, Declares
Clergyman.

Seven hundred people crowded the
Church of the Redeemer last night to
hear the Illustrated lecture by Rev.
DR.. Henry II. Rose on with the
Allies" DR. Rose showed $50 slides
of troops and battles as well as
scenes from England, Ireland, Scot
land, Wales, France, Russia, Bel
GUM, Canada, India and Algiers. Dr..
Rose said in part:
THE English and French people, as
q people, feel that they are defending
their liberties and the libertis of Eu-
rope. They think that their very ex-
istence as nations is at stake, and
that If they fall, the democratic prin-
ciples for which they stand win fan
with them. This explains the way in
which Canada, India, Algiers and
nther colonies are standing by Eng
land and France and sending troops.
1.-THE Russian people look upon ii
as holy war, and are fighting be-
cause they, too, think that their coun-
Try is at stake; that If the allies are
defeated ii will mean the loss of
some of their territory. and perhaps
the subjugation of their whole ma
ton, sooner or later.
ION the other hand, the German
people and the Austrians and Hun
sarians feel that they are likewise
trying to save their nations: that. if
they lose their countries will be lost
to them. This shows how hard it is
to judge the people across the sea
and say that they ought never to
have gone into this war. What else
can people do but fight when they
feel that their very existence is in
peril?
Americans can be neutral If they
tribute of sincerity in all they are
doing or trying to do, and hope and
pray that something may speedily
turn up which shall lead to a lasting
peace on the basis of justice to all
the parties concerned"
DR.. Rose showed, among other
scenes, large number of slides OF
air craft and the part they are TAX
ing in this war: also the big German
llowitzers that did such damage at
Jiege and Namur. He pictured the
submarines and showed how they
sent their torpedoes under water and
sank the great cruisers. Views were
given showing how masterpieces Of
art are being protected against de-
Rtruction. English troops, Scotch
troops, Irish cavalry, French troops,
Russian cossacks and Belgium sol
diers as we'll as troops from Canada
and India and Algiers were shown
going to the front; also in the
trenches and on the firing line. Brave
deeds of Belgians and English and
French were illustrated likewise
some incidents in connection with the
destruction of the cities. Rheims Ca
thedral was shown in all its magnifi
cence, and after it had been serious
1y shattered by the great shells.
