regarding the resolution by Representa-
tive Doolttle of Kansas, which provides
for an investigation OF an alleged con-
spiracy among dealers and exporters OF
wheat here to depress the price to farm
ers, A. l. Ernst, president of the Kansas
City Board of Trade, and other local
grain dealers today denied the charges
contained in the resolution and asserted

Control ImpOssible.
kansas City pays the highest price
of any market in the country for grain"

control wheat prices II 1t would. The
price of S3 cents given TO the farmers at
loading elevators in Kansas, mentioned
by Mr. Doolittle. was the low market
price. This has increased since his in
vestigation. Further. the S-cent price
mentioned by him was not the price Of
the wheat here, but the price delivered

On the matter of canal tolls the
Deseret Evening News says:
Opinions are divided on the real

is found on both sides. What the
people generally want to know is,
which Interpretation is correct and
that is what they hope will be

congress. The members Of both
Houses are in . position to study
the question thoroughly. They
have access to all the documents
in the case, and can consult diplo-
matte and legal experts. The dis
cussion should, therefore, be in
structive, and not denunciatory.
The people want to know the truth.
They do not care to be entertained
with poor pyrotechnics.
All, there's the rub. 1t is true that
1t Is big question, and that opinions
are divided on the meaning of the
Treaty. In the senate the distinguish
ed Senators Root and Lodge are
behind the president in his fight for
repeal, while the able colleague of
Senator Root, the distinguished DEM
ocrat, Senator O'Gorman. and Senator
Chamberlin Of Oregon, also a Demo
crat are against the desires of the
president. In the House Speaker.
Clark and Leader Underwood are
against the president. In the senate
every Democrat at the time Of the
passage of the act In question voted
for it, so that now every Democrat
who has in the senate then,a nd who
now votes for repeal, must do just
what the president has done, change
his mind, stullify himself, and repu-
date the Democratic platform. H.

ton was handled before. II was de-
bated in congress-. II was favored
by Theodore Roosevelt and William
II. Taft. The distinguished Richard
Olney, of President Cleveland's cabi-
net favored It, END argues that 1t Is
not h violation Of the Treaty In ques-
ton. The present Secretary Of State
William jennings Bryan, 1t Is claim
ed wrote an endorsement of 1t into
the last Democratic platform. II he
did not write It some one else did,
and he voted for 1t, and 1t was made
part Of the claim Of the Democratic
party for power. The distinguished
President of the United States fav
ored It, and endorsed 1t over and ov
er again up to and including the date
of his election. He made 1t plain that
platforms were not "molasses tt
catch flies" but meant exactly wha'
they said, and those who would moi
