Il Already Is an Issue.


Indeed, 1t is very much of an issue
in a good many congressional districts
at the present time and in some sena-
torial contests. The farm bloc. which
by no means confines its activities to
the congress, is seeking to put large
number of candidates for the congress
on record in regard to freight rates
and the proposed repeal Of the rate
making section Of the railroad act
of 1920.
The farmers In some sections of the
country, it is asserted, have the cordial
support of manufacturing industries
in their demand for lower freight
rates. From all accounts, transporta-
ton rates and rates of taxation are
the topics the farmers and the bust
ness men of the country are most In
terested in at the present time. This
being the case, men who are seeking
seats in congress are being compelled
to discuss these subjects, ii is asserted.
whether they prefer to do 1t or not
In his appeal to the farm bloc In con-
gress and out Senator Capper says
railroad officials estimate that for the
last five months of the present ealen-
dar year the class / railroads will earn
net operating incomes Of $4S0000, 900.
This, he says. will make total of
$900,0000O0 for the year compared
with earnings of $815,0O0,000 for the
calendar year 1921. These total earn
ings equal 5 per cent on $1S,000000, 900,
the total property value OF the rail-
roads In the United States.
Big Crops May Be Liability.
The senator then makes this appli-
cation of his figures:
Compare this with the reported
loss this season Of more than half Of
this country's great fruit crop because
1t cost the growers more money 10 ship
their fruit than to let 1t rot. Now 1t Is
tile grain belts turn to suffer The
stockmen win come next. Unless we
have lower freight rates speedily our
big crop from which we have hoped so
much. will become more OF liability
than an asset. Much lower prices this
harvest, three years Of losses. and the
higher-than.war rail rates are consum-
ing our farmers. They have reached
their last ditch. They can endure no
more"
Tile senator says that III we are 10
save the situation--and this Is no spe-
cial plea since 1t vitality concerns the
general welfare--let me say most
solennly and earnestly that the rail-
s0ads must voluntarily and at once
make further rate reductions; or IN de-
fault Of such action that the interstate
commerce commission must with ut
most promptness put such rates into
effect"

DEMANDS LOWER
FREIGHT RATES
FARM BLOC SERVES NOTICE OF
PLAN FOR MODIFICATION Or
TRANSPORTATION ACT.
WANTS GUARANTEE REMOVED
Senator capper Says Objectionable
Features Of Law Must Be Repealed
II American Farmers Are to Be
Saved From Ruin.
81 JANIS 3 HoRNApAY

Washington.-Tne farm bloc in pub
nc life under the leadership of Senator
Arthur Capper (Rep,, Kans.l is serving
notice on all interested persons that
unless there is another sharp reduction
In railroad freight rates the bloc win
seek TO make over the transportation
act of February, 1920, at the next ses-
sion - the congress whether that
session shall begin in November or
December. The Kansas senator in
serving this notice says he greatly
regrets that the senate did not at the
last session act ON lis bill repeating
section 15-A of the transportation act
--the rate-making clause
'This bill il passed would have
given state railroad commissioners
more control over rates" says Senator
Capper. at would have terminated
the excessive charges by removing she
so-called guarantee in the Eseh-Cr q.
minis law and so have made possible
the return of good times and genuine
revival of business In the only way in
which they can come to stay.
'The farm bloc al the next session."
says the senator In conclusion. 'will
Hrge the passage of this bin, or a
similar measure, repeating the objec-
tiona6ie provisions of the Esch-Cum-
minis act. Sooner or later this must be
done. Far better to do 1t sooner and
bring to an end the ruinous endurance
contest which has brought our greatest
prosperity maker, the. farm, to the
verge of ruin"
There seems TO be small prospect Of
the railroads voluntarily making any
further reduction in freight rates In
the near future, or of the interstate
commerce commissions ordering the
reduction, and so II would appear that
when the congress reconvenes the pro-
posed repeal of the rate-making sec
ton of the transportation act viii be
real issue.

$4,000 Inheritance Tax
From Isaac Lincoln Estate

Pierre, s. D., July 25.-An inheri-
lance tax amounting to $53,S27.1S, has
been paid into the state treasury by
the executor of the estate of the late
State Senator Isaac Lincoln, of Aber-
deem, according to the announcement
of the inheritance tax division of the
tax commission. This is the largest
tax of its kind yer collected from the
estate of a residence of South Dakota,
the records show.
Senator Lincoln, who was reported
to be the most wealthy man in South
Dakota at the time of his death, left
property and securities valued at
more than a million dollars.
During his many years in the state
legislature, Senator Lincoln was a
consistent advocate and supporter of
the inheritance tax law. That he
looked upon this as a necessary ad-
junct to the governmental revenues is
proven by the following provision in
his will:
II direct my executor as soon as
possible after my decease, to pay any
and all taxes against m estate i'm
posed by any government upon any
devise or ~bequeath given by this my
last will and testament, and all such
taxes whether known as inheritance
taxes, succession taxes or by any 9TH
er name should be treated as liability
and paid by my executor before my
property is distributed"

Pierre, July 2.-That there is prac-

age iT South Dakota this year, is the
opinion OF c. T; King, deputy superin-
tendent of public instruction.
AT the present time 1t looks like
there would be ar abundance Of teach
ers," Mr.. King declared. I'VE are re-
ceiving from three to eight applica-
tons for positions daily from outside
the state and Judging by their creden-
tails most of the applicants are quail
fed teachers"
Wisconsin and Indiana are best rep
resented among the applications re-
ceived although there is a liberal
sprinkling from Iowa and many of the
eastern states.
Several counties are about filled
up already" the deputy superintend-
ent said. "In a few districts efforts
are being made to lower the wages
of teachers. Most of these are ex-
~periencing some difficulty. For the
most part ! salaries will remain at
about the same level as prevailed last
