The proposition to delegate to the
railroad commission the power to as
sist railroads needing additional rev.

Of increasing their rates over those OF
other roads not needing an Increase
lis the most sensible disposition of the
proposed rate incrcas that We have
heard. A railroad whose Affairs will
stand an investigation which shows nh
the necessity for assistance, should
NOT be turned down. Such course Is
much different from the bunk shoot

staged u the peninsula during the past

We don't know much about the
merits or dement's OF this ship pur-
chase bill. We understand that the
purpose of the bill is to spend $780,
O00, 600 of the governments money In
the purchase of ships, the purpose
being to relieve the untitled demand
for ocean tonnage existing because OF
the war having tied up lot OF Ger
man vessels and the diyerting OF 3
lot OF other tonnage to Amy purposes
We learn also, that the government
has its hands full keeping the few
ships that are afioat out of the clut-
ches of the belligerents so II seems
to us that II we can't keep the road
clear for the ships that are now eros
sing the ocean we wouldn't help
matters much by multiplying the
carriers unless we at the same time
clear the road.

II conventions are the real good thing
that some claim they are-and we be-
Iieve that under certain restrictions
and methods they are o..k-then our
Detroit friends have certainly killed
the goose that laid the golden egg, for
the probability is that the convention
will be wholly abolished in Michigan
before long. its abolition having been
brought about by the doings at the
republican convention at Grand Rap
ids last week.

In another column OF this issue ap-
peals letter from chas. Neugebauer
and from the Crystal Falls Co
operative Society relative to the gro-
Gerry trust which II is alleged exists
here. We wish our readers would
read these letters carefully. for both
sides TO this controversy should be
given fair consideration. II is mat
ter that strikes at the commercial
heart OF our community.
The Diamond Drill was asked to
start this crusade month or more
before II was started by one OF our
citizens In particular but In general
way by many OF them. We want fair
play and an open forum and. so far as
these columns are concerned, II viii
be given. After the case Of the de-
PENDANTS Is in the editor hereof will
have something to say OF his own
Initiative in a review of the evidence
and we won't use generalities either
but will quote figures and facts.
The trouble in movements OF this
nature is that many OF those who do
the most kicking are tied up In bust
ness so that they are afraid to come
out into the open and tell tales out OF
school 1t is the case at issue, the
other business interests Of this city
really feel themselves handicapped
because Of conditions brought about
by this ctrust" and they are the ones
that are doing the biggest volume OF
the kicking, leaving 1t, Of course, &c
the editor to stand the whacks. How
ever, our back is broad and were
satisfied to take our medicine.

ing a great increase Russian orders
include railroad cars, a large quantity
OF rails. sleepers. locomotives. as we'll
as guns, rifles, ammunition. boots. and
general leather equipment and cloth
One consequence of the enlarged de.
mand has been a rise of Steel bars on

mercial house at Vladivostok and a
merchant of Osaka for the supply of

principal banks of Toxic and Oaka will
form a syndicate with the support of
the Bank of Japan to facilitate the
issue OF the bills which it is believed
will be accepted without any form of

period Of redemption is expected to be
no shorter than two months and not
longer than two years.

The Russian government TO arrange
