We observe that Senator Chesl ~,
Of St. Mary's county, has introduced
bali in the legislature, to repeal the
law passed by the last General As
sembly authorizing the County Com
missiCnels of that county TO endorse
the bonds Of the Washington, Poto-
MIC and Chesapeake Railroad Com,
pany.
The enactment Of that law was
part of a scheme alleged to have
been an attempt } build that defunct
railroad but TO our mind nothing
more nor less than plan TO make
money at the expense Of the tax
payers Of Southern Mai yland. The
bonds Of the railroad could not be
foated without some substantial Ell
dorsement 50, hence, the idea Of the
s,hemers was to get the three South
ern May land counties to endorse the
bonds OF the railroad which would
make them good, marketable paper.
And TO get tits endorsement the
promoters pictured in glowing colors
the possibility Of benekt of The pro-
posed road to this section, bu. offer
ed 10 proper guarantee that the
money would be properly spent in
building the said road or that the
same would even he built. The
Independ ,nt, for the good of our
county, fought the proposition as a
promotes scheme not to be trusted
aud killed the measure so far as this
county Was concerned aud in doiug
so tied up the whole plan. Prince
Georges county to, < the warning
and followed this county in opposi-
tor; St. Mary's county passed the
law but Of late it seems also to have
become wise, and for fear Of future
consequences are ab Ut repeating the
law.

THE LalE BILL.

The hill rece..lly inir duced into
the Senate by Senator Mudd aud in
the II nse by Dee ate Bradford, Of
Prince Georges county, appropriate
ing sum Of money Tor the purpose
of constructing plants fn converting
oyster shells into lime for agricultural
pu, poses, meets with the hearty ap |
pioval Of the farmers of this state
and particularly in Southern Mary |
land and on the Eastern Shore
Lime, it is we'd kaOwn, is one OF the
necessary ingredients used on the
soil if uccess'ul farming is to be had
in Maryland. At The present time
the cost q same is very high and be-
yond the resnh of many farmers be-
cause OF its price and because OF
his Ii freight rates. Trere are now
large number Of oyster shells on the
Eastern Shore and in Southern Mary
land that are going to waste. This
together with the fact that oyster
shell lime can be made makes the
proposition very plausible. Whe :
the appropriation is made and prac-
teal operations begun we believe that
long felt want of the farmers Of
this sti te particularly of th section
ard tie Eastern Shore will be met
a simiiar measure was introduced
ard passed through the House OF
Delegates at the last session Of the
legislature. II, however, met with a
stumbling block in the Senate where
it was so amended before It's passage
in the closing days Of the Legislature
that 1t was defeated. The measure
Introduced by the gentlemen ,ferred
TO above, is similar to that introduced
two years ago with the convict clause
el,miusted. No objection can be had
on 'ny side tn the proposed measur,
and the only objection made will b,
from the lime industries of other sec
tons Of the state. These objections
are wholly Of seif-interest and agains
lie interests Of the farmers of Mary
land. We can hardly conceive tina
in this day Of progress wher, the PEG
pie aie 30 scrutinIziagly watching tbs
ac,icns of their representatives a
Annapolis that they will throw asid'
the interests Of the people in order t
serve some few corporate interests.
The enactment # this bill into I
law will meet, We believe, with tn
approval Of maj ,rity Of the peopl
of this state. This being 5 aud th'
fu,llier fact that it will edd Target,
IL the development Of the soil, AM
increas, The value of our lands make
the proposition practical and Of mucl
value. We believe, at this time, tina
there is a widespread demand from
tie people for the passage Of thi
measure, therefore, it is the part 0
wisdom for the Legislature to enac
II into law. This measure was kiile,
in the last session largely through th'
interference o I some politicians
heuce, we warn the members OF th'
Legislature who want t. continue il
public life against allowing them
ssIyes to be influenced by politicians
who represent nothing 5ut corporate
as.d selfish interests.

(St Louis Post -Dispatch,)
The Trade Commission report on

voluminous literature extant relating

old story of an almost uncanny stand

OF five pipe lines in the midconti-
mental region the three leading to the
most important oil refining centers are
controlled by Standard Oil. The 9TH
er two are not competitive in the same
territory.
The commission reports that the
transportation costs are a large factor
in the price of crude oil delivered at
the refinery. BY a system of mini
mum shipment requirements and dis
criminatory charges the independent
producers are handicapped in utilizing
economical pipe line transport in get.

Oregon. that title falling to
Pendleton because of its geo.
graphical location and its won
derful railroad connections.
On many occasions has the
location of this place been rec
ognized as supreme in eastern
Oregon. Such recognition was
shown in the selection of Pen
dleton as the place for the east
ern Oregon session of the state
supreme court. 1t was shown
in the designation of this town
as headquarters for the federal
court in eastern Oregon. 1t
was strikingly shown when
the Eastern Oregon State Hos
pital was located here after a
complete investigation had
demonstrated this place to be
the logical location because OF
economy of administration and
the healthfulness of our cli-
mate. Another tribute was paid
to our territorial position when
the United States forestry Of
flee was moved here.
AS in the past so in the fu-
ture will Pendleton's location
prove an important factor IN
connection with local growth
and development. At times

NEW RULES As To
PARKING Of AUTOS
MACHINES WILL NOT BE AL
LOWED TO STAND FOR HOURS
IN FRONT OF GOVERNMENT
BUILDING AS FORMERLY.

New rules, tending to facilitate
traffic on Palafox street, are today eff
fective and owners of automobiles are
the ones who will probably be made
to feel the application of these said
rules in the near future.
Cars will not be permitted to stand
for hours in front of the postoffice
building, nor for long stretches of
time on the east side of Palafox
street, near Government. The police
now have instructions to enforce a
rule requiring all autos to be parked
on the west, north and east sides of
the Plaza. On the south side the dray-
men have a privilege of a stand.
Cars, therefore, will be ordered to
the Palafox, the Government and the
Jefferson street sides of the Plaza.
The autos will be on the east side of
Palafox street, the south side of Gov
eminent street, and the west side of
jefferson street, all for the distance
Of one city block.
The enforcement of these rules has
been started, it was explained, be-
cause of the congestion which at
times is the case on Palafox street
and where it is claimed, serious in
jury of people has been narrowly
averted by persons stepping from the
I sidewalk at the postoffice and being
unable to see approaching southbound
| automobiles.

His condition at the last bout was
very poor. He took off weight too
