eliminating.

WASHINGTON. D. c., July %. -
Emphasis was laid on the rule that
the test OF discrimination is the abil-
ity of one of the carriers involved
to put an end to the discrimination
by its own act. in a decision by the
interstate commerce commission
Tuesday.
The Louisville and Nashville. and
the Illinois Central railroads had pro-
posed to withdraw an allowance OF
one-quarter cent per bushel on grain
imposed for Jevator service at st
Louis, Mo. and East ST. Louis, Ill.
when the shipment was consigned 10
Evansville. Ind The merchants eX-
change of st. Louis protected that
this charge should be borne by the
railroads and not the shippers.
The coirmission found that the rail-
roads were justified in Withdrawing
the allowance because the rate which
they were permitted TO charge was
a prescribed rate and one which ;Hey
could not alter at option.

FOR THE SMITY-LEvER BILL
GEORGIA'S JUNIOR SENATOR
MAKES A STRONG PLEA.
The Measure Proposes to Place "a
Demonstration in Every County
of the United States.

WASHINGTON. - Senator Hoke
Smith spoke today in the senate in
support of the Smith-Lever bill for
agricultural college extension work.
The bill, which was introduced in
the senate by Senator Smith and in
the house by Congressman Lever of
South Carolina, makes an appropri-
alton for farm demonstration work
which will increase year by year un-
til at the end of ten years it will
amount to three million dollars an
nually.
Senator Smiths contention is that
the government has spent and is
spending vast sums in experiments
and scientific Investigations, that the
facts gained are of great value, but
that the full benefits are not obtain
ed by the farmers. A very small
percentage of those engaged in agri-
culture can attend agricultural col
leges and on account of differences
in soils, climate and other conditions
an unscientiic man cannot apply to
the best advantage the facts given
in the government publications.
The senator proposes an unprece-
dented advance in agricultural extern
sion work, the ultimate aim of the
bill being to place a demonstration
agent in every county in the country.
These men will teach the farmers
on the farm. They will bring about
the improvement and conservation of
the soils, demonstrate seed selection,
methods of cultivation, stock raising
and help to work out the problems
Of marketing.

SIMPLICITY MARKS FUNERAL
REMAINS OF CHARLES II. PEN
DLETON INFERRED IN MACON.
People in All Walks of Life Mourned
at Bier of Editor Sunday After
noon. NOtables Present.

MACON, Ga.-Mr Pendleton
body was inferred on Sunday with
that simplicity prevailing over every
ceremony, the spirit of which he so
loved in every act and function OF his
daily life.
The fact that a governor and an
ex-governor headed the honorary
nall bearers would not have meant so
much to him as the fact that at his
grave. and in his home during the
services, governors and judges and
statesmen stood shoulder to shoulder
with apprentice boys, that neighbors
of high degree rubbed shoulders with
neighbors of the humblest walks OF
life, and that all were there because
he was their friend.
At the house at 3 O'Clock, where
the services were conducted by Bish-
op n. D. Pendleton, the late editors
youngest brother, according to the
rites of the Swedenborgian church,
there we're a great many people, so
many that the dwelling itself was
filled and the big verandas and down
the steps.
At the cemetery hundreds of peo-
pie, women with babies in their
arms, richly gowned women from the
autos outside, workingmen and
clerks, mechanics and professional
men, were waiting the long cortege
conveying the casket to the grave.
The service at the grave was very
brief, the great gathering of people
standing grave and silent, the men
with uncovered heads, as the few
words were spoken by Bishop Pen
dleton and the flower smothered cas-
Bet was lowered into the earth.
The number Of out-of-town at
tendants on the funeral was large,
chief among whom were Governor
Slaton and former Governor Brown,
who, with the members of the Bibb
county board of education, formed
the honorary pail bearers. Friends
of a lifetime from ValdOsta and
score of cities and towns in the wire
grass country Mr.. Pendleton loved
so we'll were there, coming quietly to
stand a moment over his casket; a
moment at his waiting grave.
The simple, kindly spirit of the
man seemed to touch them all for
the hour.
The flowers were piled in masses
and they were of the palmer, sweeter
sort, too, in the main.
