Prohibition Anvil
Hot Shot from Kansas.

An Indiana newspaper tainted Kansas edi-
tors about the number of prisoners in the peni-
tentiaries OF that State 1t claimed that in
proportion to the population OF the Seate ka Tsas
had more prisoners than Indiana. The Indiana
editor forgot that If Kansas did have Leaven-
worth where they were sent to. Indiana had
a Terry Hut where they were sent from That
was fatal 'apse of memory. and 1T enabled
William Allen White, of the Emporia Gazett
to come back the Indiana man like this:
Looks that way, doesn't it? But when you
consider that in the reports of prisoners COM
mitted to the penjtentar in Kansas are those
committed to the Federal penitentiary at Leav-
enworth. and when you consider that Indiana
contributed carloan of vote buyers recently.
and a carload of dynamters last year. 1t would
seem that Indiana hasn't much but the Write
chip of an omnibus silence in this game. Kan
sas has her faults But she does enforce her
Jaws: and vote buying isn't State vice, so, of
course. a cool many people do go to the peni-
tentiary-even in Kansas But TO add all the
Indiana crooks to the Kansas list. and then
boot at Kansas, that does make the average

y Washington, May 24.--In two deci-
sions handed down today. the Inter-
state Commerce Commission gave addf-
tionai evidence that 1t has no intention
of separating railway lines from water
carriers in the absence of information
that the elimination of competition
through such a-union- of interests is

One decision was made in the case OF

other case was that of the Grand
Trunk Railway. which controls a ferry
company at Milwaukee, wis. These
proceedings came up incident to the
applications OF the railway companies
for authority TO continue to operate
the ferries, despite the provisionA Of
the Panama Canal act, which prohibits
land carriers from operating compet~
Ing water lines In the Rochester and
Milwaukee cases. the committee found
that the land carrier, by means Of the
