HUNTING LOWER RATES.

President Harding's invitation to fifteen of the
leading railroad executives of the country to attend
luncheon at the White House and discuss railroad
rates apparently the sequel to recent reports of
railroad earnings, The president is said to intend
TO ask the railroads to reduce rates and he will
be able to point to their earnings proof that lower
rates are possible The idea of securing ade-
quate reduction by the railroads own voluntary
action appears to have found favor in administra-
ton circle for the that the interstate COM
merce commission has concluded no reduction
which it force upon the roads, would be large
enough to satisfy business needs and public scnti-
ment
$50 the roads are to be begged 10 do what good
business principles. to say nothing of public duty,
ought to lead them to have done long ago. There
is little doubt that the rates have for some
time been cutting down the volume Of general bust
ness and therefore the volume of the railroads
business. There is good merchant who does not
know there is more money in the end in doing big
volume of business at moderate small profit
than small amount of businss at profit perhaps
twice large. General business is picking up en-.
couragingly as railroad earnings show but railroad
rates still handicapping recovery and the pres
ident cannot urge reduction the executives too

AMATEUR SPORT.

Organization of the National Amateur Athletic
Federation OF America at meeting held in Wash
ington is matter OF more Importance than appears
on the surface When 1t is realized that nearly
5000 900 athletes will come under the control and
supervision OF the federation, II all the sports Or
CARNATIONS in the country accept it. as seems prob
able the influence that it will exercise becomes
readily apparent.
The basic reason for central organization,
having general supervision all amateur sports,
while leaving the existing organizations in direct
control of the sports they specifically represent, is
the still higher cultivation of the amateur spirit in
athletics the maintenance Of physical education
an equally high plane and the Standardization Of
the rules of all amateur games and exhibitions.

to his judgment it is matter for the courts to de-
termine, and one lawyers opinion may be good
as another until the issue has been legally deter
mined. 1t has not been uncommon for one attorney
general to reverse the opinion Of another. Few re-
publicans are ready to endorse opinion in law
that will remove all restrictions the OF money
in political campaigns, making seats in the senate,
in effect, the acquisition Of the men who can spend
the most money to get them.
Signs have not been lacking that the issues raised
by the seating of Senator Newberry will be used by
the democratic party as campaign material this year
and that they will also have part in factional
fights for republican nominations for the senate.
The ruling OF Attorney General Daugherty is likely
to intensity the demand that something be done to
limit the sum which any man shall be permitted to
pay for his election to office.

IN do that" promised Uncle
Wiggily, with a low and polite
bow of his soft cap. This time
he didn't drop out any diamond
ring, and the Blue Heron did not

gentleman, hoping to have an adj

get the sugar for Nurse Jane. As
Uncle Wiggily was passing be-
meath a tree, all of a sudden he
heard the voices of birds in the
air over his head and then, all of
a quickness, something fell on
top of his tall silk hat.
Hunt" thought the bunny,
Can it be that some one is drop
ping flowers on me?"
He put UP his paw and felt on
his cap, which was still on his
head, tiny little bird.
Peep! Peep! Peep!" twittered
the little bird.
"Oh, where is my little Peep
err" cried a mother bird, flying
down from the tree under which
the bunny stood. Have you seen
him? Have you seen my Peeper?'
she asked of Uncle Wiggily. "IIe

planned to Uncle Wiggily. "But
when I fell on your cap l knew l
was all right"
I'm glad of that" said the
bunny uncle. He opened his paw
and pepper managed to fly back
UP to the hanging nest, which, as
Uncle Wiggily could see, was Just
like bag dangling from a branch
Of the tree.
The mother bird thanked Uncle
Wiggily, who hoped on to the
store to get the sugar for Nurse
Jane. And, as he was carrying IL
to. the bungalow. all of a sudden,
the Woozie Wolf sprang out from
the bushes and tried to bite Uncle
Wiggily's ears.
Here! You let me alonep'
cried the rabbit gentleman. He
hit the Wolf over the head with
the bag of sugar. Well, this SO
surprised the Woozie Chap that he
ran away, but the bag was broken
and the sugar was scattered all
over the ground.
"Oh, dearl" sighed Uncle Wig
gily. ''See what | have done."
Never mind!" sang a voice
over his head, and there was Mrs.
Baltimore Oriole and many of
her bird friends. "Well pick up
every grain Of sugar for you in
our beaks," she said.
But the bag is broken. I have
nothing in which to put the sugar,
even il you are kind enough to
pick It up" said the bunny.
oh. that will be all right"
said Mr.. Oriole. 1--WE don't need
our old nest any longer, as our
little birds are now big enough to
sit on the branches, Get Uncle
Wiggily our old nest and he can
use that as bag for his sugar"
said the father bird. So with the
help of her bird neighbors, Mrs.
Oriole cut the old hanging bag
nest from the tree, the spilled SUI
gar was picked up and put in the
bag nest and the bunny carried
it safely TO his bungalow.
II had a wonderful adventure"
he said to Nurse Jane, and he
told her the story I have told You
here, and ] hope you liked it.
And IL the tack hammer doesn't
shave all the hair off the head of
the nail. SO it catches cold, I'll
tell you next about Uncle Wiggily
and the teacher bird.

Chicago, May 16.-Buying in the

largest proportions witnessed In

decided advance in prices. Traders
generally construed the United

and oats &c to &c to &c. In pro-
visions the outcome varied from
2 &c to &c decline to rise of Csc.
Stimulating market effects OF the
supreme court decision were en-
phasized by a sudden upturn in
Liverpool wheat quotations, re-
duction OF 7.79S,0o0 bushels in the
worlds available supply and by re-
ports that foreigners were pur-
chasing future deliveries OF wheat
here. 1t was said also that export
business on large scale was under
way at the seaboard, and before
the day was over there were csti-
mates current that Europe had
taken 100000 bushels. Besides,
advices were at hand that the Kan
sas crop was deteriorating, espec-
iallv late sown wheat.
New crop deliveries Of wheat
showed relatively greater strength
