Treatment Of Walls.

II a molding is liked from which to
hang the pictures that do so much to
make our rooms homelike, the best
height for the molding is In line with
the top of the doors. The modern idea
seems to be to bring the window wood
work to the floor by using paneling
beneath the sill, and to carry the tops
of doors and windows to fixed line
the molding line. Thus the walls are
divided into rectangular spaces, and
the decorative effect of a good paper
is enhanced. A plain paper has the
dignity of a panel when so used.

Oklahoma City, okla, May 15.-The

here, occurred today in federal court.
A witness was comparing freight
rates in Oklahoma with the inter-
state rates. Clifford l.. Jackson, at

his road to make settlement of the
Oklahoma cases on the basis of the

katy offered to Compromise.


Mr.. Jackson, on behalf of the Katy
last Saturday, on the eve OF this trlal,
made formal offer, independently OF
the other roads parties to this suit, to
accept 2 6-10c mile and dismiss the
case, so far as his lines are concerned.
This would doubtless, had it been ac-
cepted, have resulted in the other lines
making the same settlement. The offer
was not accepted nor rejected. 1t is
thought very probable that rate OF
PIC a mile would be accepted by the
state as a compromise.
Mr.. Jackson was asked as to the mo-
tive of the Katy in making the offer,
and he replied that it would be good
business. "The road needs the money
at this time that the increase OF about
25 per cent in passenger revenues
would bring. 1t would enable us TO
do things that ought to be done now,
said the Katy attorney. The prospect
seems to be for compromise ar
rangement of some sort that will leave
the freight rates as they are, and in
crease the passenger rates a half OF
siX,tenths of cent mile.

Reasonableness of Rates

Today's testimony was directed to
sustaining the reasonableness of the
&c passenger rates. 1t seemed to
members of the shippers committee
present to place upon the freight traf-
fic an undue proportion of the burden
of the expense, thus tending to justify
an increase in freight rates, a factor
that is now involved in the suits.
c. b. Hinemann of Chicago, traffic
manager for Morris & Co., compared
state and interstate freight rates.
j. M. Gayle, auditor for the Oklaho-
ma corporation commission, testified
at length, introducing studies to show
proper division of expenses as be-
tween line and terminal service. He
stressed the amount of work done by
local trains that is chargeable to line
service, and went into details as to
time consumed by local freights in
distributing company materials and
supplies, showing that it is from II to
10 per cent of the total.

''TWIL|GHT SLEEP"
 IS DISAPPR0vED
 AT JOHNS HOPKINS

Baltimore, Aug. 1S.-Johns Hopkins Hospital, one of the highest standard medical institutions in the country. has today disapproved twilight sleep" The hospital authorities de- clare that the menace to the life of the child is too grave to warrant it's use except under the most favorable circumstances.
 After more than years use of the twilight sleep drug, scopalomin, the Johns Hopkins obstetricians found that it could be safely used only un- der exceptional conditions, because of questions regarding the proper dosage.
 In the latter cases two highly ex- perienced physicians always were at the bedside of the expectant mother, as we'll as several nurses. There al- ways was imminent danger of the strangulation of the baby from the moment the scopalomin was given to the mother. they say. It was on this account, according to Dr. William L.. Millen, the resident obstetrician, that it was found necessary to detail two skilled obstetriciams to each patient. This in most cases represented vigil of ten to seventeen hours.
 "Scopalomin is far from the ideal drug for child-bearing,' said Dr. Mill len today. ''The attendant dangers are so great that it can never come into general use. The wealthy may afford it, as the expense of having skilled obstetricians on call is the smallest consideration, but for most people, the so-called middle classes and poor classes, it seems out of the question; and 1t is among the masses that the greater number of births oc- cur.
 "It is not method that the aver age practitioner can use. Our conclu- sions show that a man should have at least five years obstetrical hospi- tai experience before venturing to use scopalomin. The average practitioner can never hope to have this experi- ence. Without this accumulated skill the dangers of the. twilight sleep method are too great"

-and bitterly opposed such action on the part of our government, correctly estimating that 1t would be a repu- diation of his course and a personal humiliation to him. Consequently, for MT. Hughes to support such a treaty would be to invite an experi- ence similar to that which befel MT. Taft. Yet adjustment of Colombia's $ wrongs Is important for the United States, not merely as a matter of national honor. but as a mater oi dollars and cents in our commercial dealings with all Latin America where sympathy could be gained to so large a degree by no other one act.
 Wilson is Progressive.
 F Under MT. Wilson's leadership the Democrats party is today a better instrument of progressive government than in a generation, if not in it's en- tire history, and what is more to the point, better instrument, in the opin- ion of this paper, than the Republi- can party promises at this moment to become under MT. Hughes. Various episodes have emphasized the fact that the Democratic party has had com paratively few outstanding leaders of national reputation. But it is one of the chief items of MT. Wilson's lead ership that during his term progress i've and enlightened Democrats such as Newton D. Baker, secretary of war have been brought more and more to the front while the reactionaries have been sent more and more to the rear. The party has been in trafn- ing and it has gained. But in spite of any comparative lack of leaders, the Democrats meeting in caucus, when ever caucus has been necessary, have threshed things out and determined to support, one after another, a long series of soundly constructive legis. lative measures of historic importance notable among them the income tax, the banking and currency act the rural credits act, the child labor vice, the humanitarian features of the seamen's act and the provision for vocational training for civil life while in the army. To achieve such a rec. ord without leaders, if it were literally leaders, would be in itself triumph of democracy and better promise than any amount of leadership stamp ed with the political conceptions of Boies Penrose.
 Admirable as was MT. Hughes rec ord at Albany, there can be no defin- ite assurance that he would be able to force Penrose and others of that ilk to a back seat in the degree te , which MT. Wilson has revitalized the democracy. MT. Hughes would make a good President. it was a matter of

SPRINGFIELD REPUBLICAN FOR WILSON.

With accustomed accuracy and can dor the editor of the Springfield Re- publican of Springfield, Mass. has reviewed the public careers of Wood row Wilson and Charles B. Hughes with the earnest purpose of deciding upon the editorial policy of that newspaper in the present campaign.
 The Republican. is one of the most ably edited and famous newspapers in America Its editor has waited in the present campaign to hear both candidates before taking sides.
 Like candid, broad-minded1 pub licist he yields that measure of praise to MT. Hughes he thinks his public acts must claim, but like true pa- triot he announces his allegiance to the country's present policies. and pledges his splendid talent henceforth to the reelection Of Woodrow Wilson.
 The Republicans editorial, making President Wilson the candidate of it's choice. has already become notable bit of literature in the campaign. It says in part: 4l
 MT. Wilson, in the face of difficulties and criticism such as have confronted no president since Lincoln, has ac- complished much. To declare his for eign policy futile is idle. The con- elusive answer is contained in the bit ter protests of the radical faction in Germany that the German submar- ines have been caught 'in a net of notes" The outstanding fact is that Mr. Wilson, without bringing the United States into war, has forced a recognition of neutral rights.
 With relation to Mexico. MT. Wilson has grasped the underlying principle that we shall not have a permanently peaceful neighbor to the south of us until the most patent, wrongs under which the masses of the Mexican peo- ple have suffered are lighted through their own efforts. The recognition of this principle in the long run means the minimum of evil to this country from the Mexican problem. It is to MT. Wilson's everlasting credit that in spite of difficulties, discourage ments and possibly of incidental mis- takes, he has not wavered in his en- deavor to apply this principle to the changing circumstances of the times.
 MT. Hughes Obligations.
 Much is made, and very properly, of the fact that MT. Hughes, if 'elect- ed, would take office free from ham, pering pledges. But if free from pledges, he is not free from obliga- tions. Having courted and gained the support of. Col. Roosevelt, it would be impossible for MT. Hughes, as a matter of practical politics, to sign a treaty with Columbia redress ing the wrongs done that nation when CoI Doocove1t sSeiZed" tbe capa I zone. MT. Roosevelt has angrily

national good fortune that he was nominated at Chicago. But MT. Will son. by reason of his exceptional ex- perience in office and his now over- whelmingly evident leadership of his party along progressive lines, is. in the opinion of The Republican, better fitted to meet the problems of foreign relations and social evolution, in the broadest sense, which the next four years hold in store.
