AN UNEXPECTED ATTACK.

 We did expect that from the Douglas News The News usually truthful capable and fair In this instance it not only unfair but shred of fact foundation for its intmations

 for any member of it. them only what other paper in the Territory hem-far treatment, and no much the duty of newspaper to oppose un truthful unfair attacks in public office as It IS duty expose unfahfu public trust The duty that orbds the consideration of whether it makes for popularity or otherwise.
 The letter which the attacked Senators sent to Secre tary speaks itself and that might be read again we repeat it:
 eve are informed that it general opinion prevalent at Washington people of Alaska unanimously in favor of Federal owned constructed and operated rail road in Alaska.
 The majority of the people, opinion opposed to the PRINCIPLE OF GOVERNMENT OWNERSHIP. Note that the letter that the people favor government rail road in Alaska. Also note what fOLows9

shows nearly II not quite as many
names as the polling list OF two years
ago.
In some clubs the enrolment ex-
ceeds the number Of names on the
polling list of 1912.
Friends OF the members of the re-
cent state democratic convention
claimed that they needed no defense
and that the enrollmen. would be

that tho inGi. ations arc that the to-

latter part OF April. In their closing
arguments the railroad attorneys
again stated that delay meant destruc-
tion for many lines.
All through May pressure was
brought to bear on the commission to
hasten the decision. Greater pressure
was brought In June. Then the rail-
roads began to look around and found
| they weren't SO badly of as they
thought. They took the hints thrown
out by the commissioners and their
ne. earnings began to show relative
increase.
Crop conditions throughout the
country, never more favorable than
this year. began to shed optimism on
the railroads and within the last few
weeks the carriers, which had laid off
many men during the progress of the
rate hearings, began to hire. them
oack; they placed orders for new
rails; they gave orders for new cuuip-
ment, and they began running their
shops overtime in many instances to
put their rolling stock in Shape to
handle the crops
Railroads to Meet Conditions.

they are.

out the way to great benefits for the

A more scientific handling of their

their expenditures for repairs on old

sion will emphatically insist that the
roads take care OF their "cripples"
during the dull season, instead of let
ting them pile up on. miles of side
tracks until the rush season strikes
them, when an attempt Is made to put
them all through the shops In hurry.
The commission will point out that
the roads should also devote their at

r - ~
People Living There Do Not Like
Idea of Becoming Attached To
County of Greenwood,
DONALDs SECTION

Sometime ago an agitation was
started to effect a change, by which
the portion Of Abbeville county known
as Donald's township would become
a part of Greenwood county. For
sometime 1t seemed that this deal
had gone through and that the split-up
would occur. but few days ago op-
position to such a move was develop
ed, people living in the northern half
OF the district refusing to agree to the
proposition. The southern half Of the
district wanted to become q part Of
Greenwood and the northern half OBJ
1ected and there the matter stood un-
tai yesterday, when certafn. citizens
living in the northern haf tafeBh6ned
to Anderson and asked If Anderson
would assits in the undertaking to
have them made into a part of Ander-
son county II they would state q prop
osition. They said that they were
very ready to leave Abbeville county

RATE DECISION WILL POINT
WAY TO RAILROAD REFORM
Commerce Commission VIII Demand That Lines Be
ness Bass-No General Advance to Be Granted

Washington, July 29.-It Is so gen.
orally conceded that the decision OF
the interstate commerce commission
on the proposed advance In freight
rates will be adverse to the railroads
that it Is doubtful If the railroads
themselves are setting any store by
the prospects.
Unless all indications fail, 1t pro-
misses to be the most important ruling
the commission has ever made-im-
portant In tie fact that IT will prevent
any large increase in public burdens
by the railroads. but principally i'm
portant In that 1t is expected to cause
far reaching reforms In railroad
methods and operations. 1t Is eX-
pectcd TO tell the railroads that they
must be run upon business princi-
pies, for business purposes, and not as
adjuncts to the stock market, to be
used for stock manipulation.
The roads. 1t Is believed, will be Sc
verely censured for gone of their
practices and will be told how they
can obtain Increased revenue by the
elimination Of special service per-
formed for favored shippers. {
The decision. in fact, will be largely
II review Of general railroad conditions
throughout the eastern territory, COM
bined with advice from the commits
sion as 10 the best method OF remedy
ing bad conditions.
Would Scatter Industries.
1t Is believed that one part OF Il
will deal especially with the present
concentration Of Industries in the lar
ger cities, and will recommend that
these industries be scattered along
the lines in the smaller towns, thus
enabling the railroads.&c. handle their
business without the congestion, delay
and expense incidental to city termin-
ais; aiding the industries in reducing
their overhead charges and the cost
