SHIPPERS IN N. c.
WIN RATE BATTLE
Interstate Commerce Commission
Grants Relief From Long and
Short Haul Provision.

WASHINGTON, March 1S.--Relief
from the long and short haul provi-
sion of the fourth section of the coru-
MERGE act, in order to establish re-
duced class and commodity rates from
Ohio River crossings, St Louis and
Memphis, to-day was granted 10
North Carolina shippers by the In
terstate Commerce Commission.
The rates from Memphis, the Com
mission states, should be established
as proportional rates applicable only
on business originating in the terri
tory west of the Mississippi River
and limited so as to prevent increase
of discrimination against intermedi-
ate points OF origin.
Proposed increase in proportional
rates on tomatoes from Jacksonville,
Fla to various points west of the
Mississippi River on railroads OPP
Grating between these points was held
not to be justified. The carriers
sought to reduce the weight carried
from $4,000 pounds TO 10000 pounds,
and then increase the rates from SO
cents to 40 cents a crate.
The Commission ruled that condi-
tions under which passenger tickets
are sold over the Atlantic Coast Line
Railroad are not unrea sohable. The
rule of the road providing that 1t VIII
not redeem any form OF passeng~
transportation which has been ms
laid, lost or destroyed, and that re-
quests for redemption of unused pas
senger tickets will be honored only
when the requests are accompanied
by the transportation, was held to be
rea sonable.

INSPECTION FEES TOO HIGH.
State Must Reduce Oil Fees and Will
Lose $4,000 Annually.

Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines July 22-Effort of New
Jersey to supervise the oyster business
and failure to make a fee low enough
for inspection to not arouse any an
tagonism, will cost the state Of Iowa
$4,000 a year. AS indicated some
time ago the reading of the decision
of the United States supreme court in
the oyster inspection case, made it
dead certain that the Iowa law on Oil
inspection wouldn't stand minute If
it ever was dragged before the highest
court. The decision in the oyster law
case was against the law because the
fee exacted was such as to produce a
revenue materially above the cost Of
the inspection. The court held this
meant really tariff on commerce be-
tween the states. Now the Iowa oil
inspection fee is high enough and has
been for thirty years to bring some
revenue to the state. But nobody ever
attacked it from that standpoint.
In order to make sure that it will
not be attacked and the whole scheme
Of inspection be defeated the fee will.
Of course. be reduced to actual cost.
It is one case where the fee victim held
the whip hand and the state bowed to
the inevitable.

MEDICINE FIRMS wARLIkE.
Makers Of Patent Drugs to Fight Stat
Board of Health.

Board Of Health.
Des Moines, July accompanies
which distribute the medicines and
remedies that the state Of Iowa will
brand as fakes before the visitors OF
the Iowa state fair, will put up a Wig
orous fight in defense of their pro-
ducts.
/ A representative Of the distributors
appeared at the state house and sough,
to get copy of the condemning plac.
ards to be posted in the women's build
ing at the fair ground.
He was told that the health depart
ment would probably permit him to see
the placards. He stated, however that
he preferred to get the data without
the knowledge of the state officials
When asked his reason, therefor, the
man declared he may be able to find
that certain placards have flaws in
their makeup that will give him the
opportunity to fight back. He asserted
that the distributors of such medicines
as are condemned on the placards in
tend to defend their wares, even
against the state.
The man came to, Des Moines when
his firm saw story few weeks ago
which announced the intention Of the
state to fight medicines and cures con-
demned by the American Medical As
ISOLATION as fakes. The article stated
that the board of health intends to
place scores of placards in the women {
building, naming the specific medicine
or so-called cure that has been con-
demned and give the reason therefor
