LITTLE PROSPECT Of
iowa CHECKING RAISE
IN PASSENGER RATES
Authority From Interstate Com.
merce Commission Cannot
Be Overturned.

Des Moines, Ia, Jan. 5.---While the
state department of justice has not
reached a definite conclusion. the at
torneys have begun to lose hope that
the state of Iowa will be able to pre-
vent the railroads putting the "a cents
per mile Interstate passenger rate in
to effect in this territory. The roads
have not yet announced when the
tariffs providing for the increased rates
will be ready for filing.
The Interstate Commerce commits
sion authorized the railroads to in
crease the interstate passenger fare
from 2 cents to "a cents per mile.
Clifford Thorne, chairman of the Iowa
railroad commission, called confer
ance at Omaha a few weeks ago of the
attorneys general and railroad COM
missioners of Minnesota, Iowa, Me-
oraska, Kansas, North Dakota and
South Dakota and Oklahoma.
He urged that the states file action
in the federal courts asking for an
injunctin to prevent the roads from
raising the passenger fares.
The Iowa department of justice has
been making careful investigation.
and is inclined to believe that there
is no ground on which the state OF
Iowa can start action against the rail-
roads to enjoin the rates. The attor-
neys say that the law gives the inter-
state commerce commission power to
make passenger and freight rates and
does not provide for an appeal to the
courts from the decision of the COM
mission
1t is pointed out that railroad can
go into the federal court to ask for an
injunction to prevent rate from go
ing into effect, on the ground that the
rate is confiscatory and, therefore,
contrary to the constitution.
The attorneys. however, say that the
state cannot go into the federal court
to ask for an injunction against rate.
after the Interstate Commerce COM
mission, having absolute power, has
fixed the schedule. The. state cannot
claim confiscation, they say.
The department of justice has not
yet given up the search for points
which might sustain the action pro-
posed by the railroad commission, but
so far the attorneys have met with
no success.
Unless something develops, there will
be no action by the state, it was re-
ported at the state house yesterday.
outside attorneys who have looked in
to the matter are reporting that they
found nothing in the law which would
sustain the proposed action.
The increased interstate passenger
rates will add burden of $2,OO0,O0O
annually to the travelling public of
Iowa.
After the railroads put the "a cents
rate into effect, they are expected to
ask the Interstate Commerce commits
sion to increase the intrastate passen-
ger fares to correspond with the in
er 100000 burden to the travellers of

RELATIVES NOT SATISFIED
WITH SUICIDE VERDICT

Shenandoah, Ia, Jan 5.-Alex Nc
Nerny, prosperous farmer, was found
dead in a small creek here, a bullet

jury held he had committed suicide.
McNerny "a years old and single,

Then he left the house and soon after

simply ask for a 5O-cent package of
"Anuric" manufactured by DR.. Pierce,
or even write DR.. Pierce for large

McPhee's Reinvestment.


An Irishman named McPhee lived in
shanty that stood in a field near
main highway out of Kansas City.
The foundations of the shanty were
lower than the road, through which
ran a big water main. AS the living
floor of the place was raised on posts
to make it level with the highway, it
left large cellar underneath. where
McPhee kept dozen hens.
One day the water main burst, flood
ed the cellar and drowned the hens.
Thereupon McPhee entered claim for
damages against the city. After much
delay, influential friends succeeded in
getting thirty dollars in settlement Of
his claim.
I've got me money!" shouted the
old man to his nett door neighbor.
Glad to hear that" was the reply.
and how much was 1t, McPhee?
Thirty dollars"
And phwat are We goin' to do with
the money!"
