HOOPER FEARS MORE. STRIKES BREEDING.
Labor Board Head Attacks Pro-
 visions Of the Howell Bill

Washington, April 4.-Generai re-
 vision of freight rates was advocated
 today before the house commerce
 committee by Representative Hoch.
 republican, Kansas, who declared the
 present structure is badly out of adjustment. that certain sections of the country are favored at the ex- pense Of others, and that certain commodities, particularly farm prod | ucts, bear an unfair proportion of the l freight burden.
 Urging favorable action on his bill which would direct the interstate general readjustment of rates. Mir. Hoch expressed views differing from those of Commissioner Esch of the interstate commerce commission who told the committee yesterday there was no need for a general rate re- vision and that one, if carried out, might disturb business conditions.
 The Kansas representative, con- tending that the present rate struc- 
 piece meal and is q result of all sorts of local considerations, has failed adequately to take into account the industrial development of the country westward, said:
 This maladiustment has been greatly increased by the fiat hori- zontal percentage increases in freight rates which have been made in re- cent years. No one contends that these increases have been scientific in any way and the methods can only be justified on the grounds of eApe- diency. There have been practically no changes in the general rate strnc- lure in recent years except those brought about by these flat in- creases,"

 "A man that accomplished that for
 the city ought to be worth something to the city. I have been informed, however. that he did not exactly meet with the approval of the executive. and when he did not agree with him

 1 No man knows everything. When 1 you get a man who is an expert on subject, anything he says ought to l be given your consideration. That is i me. I want advice from the best men it is possible to get it from. and after I have received ii, then I'll make my decision.
 In closing his talk, Judge filling said: 'I don't intend to play politics. If elected. I'm to be your servant. to furnish 10 each one of you the best that is in me. If you believe me. go out and vote for me: not only that, but go out and work for me- Lieutenant Governor Chairman Pratt introduced the lieutenant governor.
 MT.

The judiciary committee was the most in teresting and important of them all as it was called upon to pass on all laws before they went through for ac- ton.
 One man on the committee attract cd him above all the others. accord ing to his statement. and that was Ben" filling. He said that no man showed more or finer common sense than the republican candidate for mayor. He thought things out for himself, showing a fine sense of jus tice, and by the time the legislature was nearing adjournment. there was not another man in whom the com mittee had more confidence than Alling," he declared.

NO FRICTION OR ILL
WILL AT PRIMARIES

Seldom has everything gone off so
smoothly at a primary election as was
the case Tuesday when voters of the
county went to the polls and made
their selections for candidates to run
for office at. the general election on
November 8. There were no bitterly
contested places in either party and
no factions working against each
other.
All was peaceful and pleasant and
electioneering did not grow out of
bounds as is sometimes the case.
There were no attempts to overstep
the restrictions of the election in this
regard and there were no demons
trations of feeling
However, the interest of the voters
was great as was shown by the fact
that though the day was bad the vote
was very good for a primary election
vote. The voters who went to the
polls were alert and thoughtful men
and women who realize the import
ance of expressing their opinions. The
election was good one in every way
and showed many things, among them
that people are realizing more and
more what a primary election is for.
to make selection of candidates and
not for the airing of personal grieve-
ances.

DUTY TO PERFORM

The man who makes his money in
a community has a duty to perform
to that community. 1t may be that
he has made his money by his super
ior business ability and that he would
have done as well anywhere. That
does not alter the case. If his gifts
are great his responsibility is equally
as great, No man was placed on earth
for the sole purpose of making money,
and the man who has this as his ideal
had better never have been born.
1t is not an act of charity, but the
performance of a simple duty for the
man who has made money to pass a
little of it on for the benefit of the
community, even though he never ex
poets to see a dollar of his con
tribution back.
