However, certain humanitarin in- stincts have been lacking from time immemorable. They have to do with the lower animals-but the keene ;t kind of suffering by animals with nerves comparatively as tender as our own, is involved. Here's proof:
 Unnecessary stockyards suffering.

 Mistreatment of horses and other dumb animals.

HIGHER FREIGHT RATES '

As was to be expected, our rail- roads, smitten with an application of the Adansen law, now want higher freight rates. Public sentiment in thair favor has been touched, and millions of people are under the im- rression that the roads will need an immediate rate boost to keep their necks above water.
 However, there are two sides to the question. As Clifford Thorne points opt. the railroads in 1916 enjoyed gross receipts of $9,OO0,OOO day, and made a combined net profit for the year of $2oO,ooo,ooo.
 Admit that last year was exception II in the way of profits, 1t still re- mains that the railroads will be able < U make" good deal less than the foregoing sums and not suffer from st1rvation.
 American shippers will have some thing harsh to say about increased freight rates. Manufacturers say that tho cost Of shipping goods is quite hish enough, and as long as the rail- reads are making as much money as tAay appear to be garnering. they Nill unite in advising that we'll enough be left alone.
 III the income of the roads were iu reality at low ebb, it would be dif- ferent. Just now every railroad ex- Cept those that were wrecked by fRenzied finance is wallowing in riches; and even those that have felt < fhe sting of financial mismanage- I1ent are getting on their feet fast q \ i'm was ever expected.
 ' The strong railroads of the country < have habit of pointing to the weak X and misguided ones ac proof that

Convention.

Convention.
 Gentlemen: According to my views, the participation in the framing of the organic law of our state to be sub-| mitted to the people for ratification, | is a service so serious and respons1 | ble as to render a campaign or con- test for membership in the conven' tion unbecoming, and I am sure yor agree that our delegates should pc selected through the thoughtful, quiet and deliberate action of the people.
 I was not a seeker for the place and in the absence of your petition should not, of my own motion, have aspired to become a member of the convention; yet, at the same time, Il believe it to be an honor which any citizen might we'll afford to covet notwithstanding the personal sacrl' flee involved.
 In obedience to your request ana assuring you of my desire to render any service to my state and county of which my fellow citizens may think me capable, I shall have my name placed on the ballot in the primary ordered by the Democratic party, to which I claim allegiance; and if l should be selected as one of the nomi- ! nees from Jefferson county l shall comply with the requirements of the law prescribed for candidates in the general election.
 The confidence you manifest m me by your petition calls from my heart the deepest sentiments of gratitude and appreciation.
 Yours respectfully,
 DANIEL TAYLOR. Since the call published few days ago in the morning paper, soliciting me to become a candidate for dele gate to the constitutional convention, from this county, have been consld- | ering my reply. Deeply appreciative of this unso- 1 licited compliment by my fellow cltl-
 zens, have decided to obey the call.
 In thus yielding to the behest of my friends, I have no personal amblf ion to subserve. I shall always cherish 1 the sentiment which prompted the solicitation; made by men among whom I have so long lived and who
 have had opportunity to know me
 best. If honored by the nomination
 shall so conduct myself with relation
 to this high office, that my friends l will have no cause to regret their l choice.
 Respectfully,
 THOS. M. HOOKER.
