A Joke on the Drummers But a
Poor One They Think it
is For Them.
The Inter-State Commission has
Decided that the Commercial
Man Must Put up.
PUT UPOR %NHT UP
Drummers Must Pay the amme Rasiroad
Fare as Other People.
Washington Telegram: The inter
state commerce commission has deliv
ered its opinion in four of the cases re
cently brought before it. The cases
entitled Louis Larrison against the
Grand Trunk Railroad Company, and
Michigan Central Railroad Company
against the Grand Trunk Itailroad
Company, were, by consent of the
parties, beard together. The charge
is unjust discrimination. Larrison
complains that the road would not sell
him a 1,00) mile ticket at the price
paid oy commercial travelers., and the
Mlchigan Central company complains
that the Grand Trunk company was
selling to commercial travelers at low
er rates than to the public generally.
The defendant admits the facts as
charged, but avers that nothing alleg
ed is in conflict with the laws. The
opinion reviews and discusses at
length the various points set up by
the defendant, and concludes as fol
lows: Common carriers may con
tinue the issuance of mileage passec
ger tickets, the charge for which must
he reasonable and just, and free from
unjust discrimination or unreasonable
preference. Persons belonging to the
class known as commtercial travelers
are not privileged to ride over rail.
roads at lower rates than are paid by
other persons. Whatever reasonable
rates commercial travelers are made
to pay other travelers may be made to
pay. To charge one more than the
other is unjust disclrmination; and
thls Is true whether the tickets issued
are mileage tickets or in some ether
form. The refusal of the defendant,
the Chicago & Grand Trunk railway
company, to sell the complainant Lar
rison a thousaud-mile ticket for $2)-
price at which said company was sell
ing such tickets to commercial travel
ers, and the neglect to publish rates at
which defendant was offering to sell
mileage tickets, were alikel in conflict
with "the act to regulate commerce."
Opinion by Commissioner Morrison,
all concurring.
The case of the St. Louis wholesale
grocers agalnst the Missourl Pacific
embodies a complaint that while com*
mrutation tickets arel sold at the rates
which would amount to not more
than $1S. for 1,(00J miles, the 1,(I000-mile
tickets upon which commercial tray.
elers travel are not sold for less than
$23. The commission is also asked to
order and direct that a discrimination
be made in favor of commercial tray.
elers; in short, that thousand-mile
tickets be sold to them at lower rates
than to others. The commiusion does
not regard the fact that commutation
tickets are put on sale at a given rate
to be one that entitles the purchaser of
a mileage ticket to complain of unjust
di.crimination if charged a higher
rate. The circumstances and coudi.
tions, the opinion says, are not the
same. The commission finds nothing
in the testimony submitted going to
show that the charge of $'2 for a 1,000
mile ticket is uoreasonable. In re
speet to the order it is requested to
make in favor of commercial trevelers
the opinion says: "The commission
would hardly be willing to make such
an order il any case, however urgent
the clrcumstances might applear to be.
But in respect to this matter we are
agreed that the entire polliy and
spirit of the law are against it, and
that when mileage tickets, distin
guished from trip tickets. are issued,
they should be sold to all impartially."
Opinion by Commissioner Walker. all
concurring.
OF INTEREST TO HORSEMEN.
Noah Armstrong, the Noted stock Rai.er,
Dluonurmae of Turf Event., Past 1al Pre~*
ent.
Mr. Noah Armstrong, a prominent
Montana stock raiser, whose residence
at present in Seattle, arrived here from
Chicagoon Mouday evening. In the
course of oonversation yesterday, .Mr.
Armstrong stat'.d that be had disi.lpn
ed of the string of running hors*a
which he had taken sat with him.
lie brings hIcp with him two racers
of excellent promise, one an except
ionally fine two.year.old, which will
be entered in the Helena meeting thin
fall, provided that a purse In oll;.r.el
for that elas. The fall meeting prom
iess to secure the presence of a 'num.
ber of noted horse men, with their sta
bles, among others the owner of Rep.
etta, the runner, who has already se
cured a Montana reputation.
During the course of bhi peregrina.
tions Mr. Arm rong ran across old
Sorrel Mike, a horne who Montan
inane remember with pride as the win
ncrof many noted events. After be
ing taken east Mike continued his
career as a winner and is now, at the
age of nineteen, living in retirement
in the comfortable stables o. him pres
ent owner, peacefully enjoying hi.
laurels. Mr. Armstrong learned some
inside facts in regard to the pulling of
Jackman, which lately created a con.
siderable scandal in turf circles, at
the Chicago spring meeting. It ap.
pears to have been a put up job on the
part of the Chicago talent to do up
their brother sports of St. Louis and
Kansas City. It succeeded to pertec.
tion. All the tips wired to th. latter
places quoted Jackman as a strong
favorite. The suckers bit eagerly and
pools on the favorite sold like hot
cakes. The Chicago clique placed
their money where it would do the
most good on other horses and reaped
a magnificent harvest. Jackman was
pulled so openly that private bets
were declared off. but the confiding
pool room inveltors dropped their
money in bandfus. The character
of the Chicago management can be
imagined from the fact that no offcial
action was taken in the matter. Mr.
Armstrong states that owing to the
unu-ual number of defeats of favorites
in the east this year, bookmakers are
heavy lose:s and that the names of
many of them will figure no more at
mteetings where they have hitherto
been prominent. He leaves in a few
days for Seattle, but will return in
time for the fall meeting.-Indepen.

RACE PREJUDICES.
They Crop out Anew in Georgma--The Glen
lill.
Atlanta, Gia., Telegram: The excite
ment caused by the introduction of
the Glen bill In the legislature is uu.
abated and grows every day. M1r.
Glen says that the sentiment of thel
people of Georgia I. strongly in favor
of his bill, but he fears opposition
from some of the politicians, who will,
it is thought, 'oppose the bill in order
not to be subjected to censure or criti
clam from the north. "The measure,"
Mr. Glen says, "is both timely and
wise. All of our race problems should
be settled now, and not be left to em
barrass other generations. Then it
may be a matter of impossibility and
unless we legislate now the next gen
eration may not have it in their
power to enact the laws necessary to
forever separate the white and black
race."
"Why does your bill hit at schools
more than any thing else ? "
"Because they have been brought
by the report of the board of visitors
directly to the attention of the public.
Another reason is that looaing after
the children is the most important of
all things to be done at present. There
can be no estimate of the evils that
will arise fropi the commingling of
the races at young and impressible
ages in unrestricted intercourse, each
imbibing the worst ideas of the other.
The miscegenation of ideas may be as
fatal as physical miscegenation and
the intellectual hybrid resulting from
the co.education of races as much a
monstrosity as the physical hybrid
could be." s
The negroes are stirred up on all
sides and many of them are loud in
their protests against ouch a bill. In
dignation meetings have been held and
largely attended. Speeches were made
at the meetings by the most promi
ntnt colored men in the country and
resolutions were drafted showing the
sense of the meetings. At one of
them a memorial to the legislature
was prepared and signed by over OK)
colored citizens. The memorial asked
the legislature not to allow the passage
of the bill.
Who Are Thesr TrsMkerr :'
"These traffickers intectionalhate!"
Thus speaks (;rover Cleveland of
Commander Fairchild of the G. A. R.,
tov. Foraker and others who pro.
tested against the return of the flags.
Let us see about that. Not long agc
the city and suburbs of Charleston, N,
C., were rocked by terrible earth
quakes. Calamity worse than wai
fell upon that fair city. Great build
ings .wayed and tumbled. Shock fol
lowed shock and the terror-etricke,
eolple saw nothing but death and
ruin. Massive block., tall churche,
and beautiful homed were crumbled tc
the earth and hundreds of lives were
lost, Many of the living were worse
ttl'than the dead. Homeless, and
pennioess they pleaded for help.
Who was the first to respond to thl
ery of distress? Not President Cleve
land, who heard but could not leave
his rod and reel; not Secretary Endli
cott, not any member of the cabinet
nor any other part of the administra*
tion.
Who is be who started promptly for
the stricken city to ascertain and re
lieve the wants of the suffering?
Commander Fairchild of the Grand
Army of the Republic !
Who spoke to the loyal north, and
said to the boys in blue: "Here, com.
rades, are thousands of your fellow
citizens in sore distress. Save,or they
perish."
Commander Fairchild, of the G.
A. R!
W.ho appealed with quick and gen
erous results to every Grand Army
poet of the north to send means to
comfort the t.ck, heal the wounded,
provide shelter for the homeless and
feed the starving ?
Commander Fairchild, of the G.
A. R. !
Who was the first man to offer tents
to shelter the unsheltered of the strick
en city ?
That other "trafficker in wotional
hate"-Gov. Foraker!
Who were among the very last
who ought to have been the very first
-to respond to the cry for help '
President Cleveland and Secretary
Endioott. While the President was
fishing and enjoying the comforts of
life all unconcerned, the boys in blue
and patriotic people of the great north
were pouring out their treasure for the
relief of the sufferers in Charleston,
sending, with their substantial aid,
assurances of heartfelt sympathy and
love.
Among the first to go to their relief
Gov. Foraker, Commander Fairchild
and the gallant veterans of the G. A*
R. And these are the men whom
Cleveland stigmatizes as "*trufldekers
in sectional hate."
To prove the assertion cowardly we
bhave only to appeal to the records.
The Charleston sufferers found no
truer friends than these men whom
President Cleveland has so cruelly
slandered and abused. While he was
fishing and payit g no heed to the cry
ofdis'ress, they were answering the
prayers of distress with active service
and liberal contributions.
And history will call any man a
liar who says it is not true.-Detroit
Tribune.
Steek the Priter.
Editor Hellsmutb, of the Montana
tipsnorter, was in town lat week and
spoke very favorably of the erops in
his section. He war also retailing
some very vigorous stories of true
Montana flavor.
"Now, I've got a compositor in my
ofice," said the Colonel, putting his
feet on an arm chair that a gentleman
was just coming across the hotel ofsloe
to get, and pittnlog successfully across
hle neighbor's stirt front at a spit
toon, "I've got a blacksmith in my
office that can set any manuscript on
tbe green earth. I'm not much of a
writer myself," said the Colonel de
preciatingly, "but we never have to
read proof after Twitchell. Twitchell
is hls name, you know."
'"Well, this spring there was a
I smart Aleck from Boston comes into
the office and I got to telling him
him about Twltchell."
"'M--m,' said he, 'but I have some
writing in my portfolio that would be
difficult for him to decipher.'
"'Bring out you demmed old turkey
trail,' said I 'aud let's see it.'
"And gentlemen, if I hope to get to
Heaven, I couldn't read a word of it.
I looked 'round and be was doubled
up laughing.
"'Don't you see,' said he, 'that is an
engraving of one of Turner's paintings
of the sun rising at Venice.'
"'Venice or --,' said .I excitedly,
'Twitchell can set it.' So I wrote in
the corner, 'Set this In Minion,' and
sent her out. And in half an hour
there came in the proof sheet a neatly
composed editorial on the tariff ques
tion. But Twltchell sent In word
that he couldn't make out that stuff
in the corner where I had written 'set
in Minion,' you know. Twitobell's a
good one." And the Colonel spat re
flectively.
"Twitchell out of type, no mistake,"
murmured a sad-eyed man.-Minne
