CHANGE IN FREIGHT TARIFFS
New Scale Of Rates That Affect the
Entire South Become Effective
January 1-Shippers Enter
DrnAAe%

Memphis,-A gigantic upheaval that
will tear asunder the old established
freight rate fabric in the southeastern
and the Mississippi Valley territories
will take place Jan. /, 1916, when the
first Of the new tariffs compiled to
meet the requirements of the long
and short haul" clause of the coTsmerce
act will become effective.
The e tariffs will be revolution
airy in their effect, and will affect ev-
cry city and town within the two ter.
ritories. No one can foresee the full
force OF the upheaval the changes will
bring about, but it is said that mar
kets will be made and unmade by the
new tariffs.
No less than IS new tariffs have re.
Gently been filed by the railroads and
distributed throughout the territory.
Their appearance absorbed the atten-
ton Of traffic officers In all southern
cities, and a storm of protest already
has broken from shipping interests.
James S. Davant, commissioner OF
the Memphis Freight Bureau. has been
invited to attend a conference of traf.
fic managers Of southern freight bu.
reaus to petition the Interstate Com.
merce Commission to suspend the new
tariffs. He has accepted the invita-
ton, although the place and date Of
the meeting have not been decided.
Railroad officials do not believe c
fight before the commerce commission
will be Of avail to the shippers. be-
cause the new tariffs have been com.
piled by a committee which has been
at work in Washington, d, c., for more
than two years. and in close touch

KklSER'S VISIT A MYSTERY
Emperor Williams Trip To Vienna 10
Cause Of Much SpecuIation-Serb
Campaign Ends.

London. Emperor Williams visit
to Vienna, which conceded with the
resignation OF three OF the Austrian
cabinet ministers, Is the cause OF much
speculation. The two events are vari-
ously assumed to be connected with
the reported effort of Germany to
force Austria into n German ~zoIlverein,
a desire OF Emperor Francis Joseph to
secure q separate peace through the
Intervention OF Pope Benedict and n ru.
mored dispute between Austria and
Bulgaria over the division OF Servian
territory.
There naturally is no authoritative
basis for any of these reports hey ond
statements in the German newspapers
that Emperor Williams visit was one
Of the highest Importance.
Meantime the operations in the BAL.
kans and the movements of the armies
OF the central powers continue with
uRabated energy. Like Germany, Bul.
garia that with the capture
Of Prisrend her campaign against Ser.

LIQUOR INTERESTS
FALSIFY HISTORY
Ortonville Man Calls Attention
to Statement About Kansas
in Anti Option Tilt

The liquor interests are fighting
down in Blk Stone county, and they
are sending out the same kind of stuff
now being scattered in Stevens county.
The Editor of the Ortonville Journal
calls the attention to his readers to
some of the statement about Kansas
cont ained in the pamphlets. Kansas Is
dry state where the farmers are max
ing money and are spending very little
of it in the saloons.
The Journal man speaks of the cir
culars as follows:
"The brewery interests have cir
culated lot of literature over the
county in the interests of the saloons
fighting the county option issue. The
only fault we have sent out is the
false statements they contain. The
editor was practically raised in Kan.
sas, and in which state he spent about
twelve years of his life editing diff
erent papers, and claims to be quite
| familiar with the prohibition law Of
that state, and the effect it has hac
upon the state at large, and the state,
ments made in the folder regarding
prohibition in Kansas are radically
wrong. If the brewery interests are
expecting to gain victory by trying
to mislead the people with errone
GUS statements they will find the state
ments will act as a double edgec
boomerang, and will return with dam
aging force"
