A report is currehtin Wash ington, and hoB been Bent out bv a number oT ccr res pondents, that anagieement has been reached among the members ot the Senate coni mittee oh IiiterBtdte Tdm merce regarding the form of railroad leginlatioh which shall be enacted at the next session of Congress and it is added, that the President has given his sanction to the pro gram. It is claimed that a bill to be framed which shall merely extend the pro vitudns of the Elkins anti-re--bate law, prevent discrimiria tion of every chardctei as be twfeen shippers and even reni edy the grave inequalities tibw a'rhved at by the use of private cars, thai; is. cars owned by specfal companies like the Armor refrigerating company, et al. No confirmatioh of this re port can be obtained arid as a whole it appears .to be with out foundation. That the members of.Jbe Seriate com mittee, the Repiibllcail mem bers, at ledst, may have rea ched such ah agreement i eri tirely rlrbbable. The railroads Are ihRistent that the only legislation which effects tttprr industry shall be confined to the further prevention' of re bales, in whateyei rebated, in whatever forms they are now givhi. That is natural rHbotP! menu a dimijiu Hon bi railway pro tit a. TKifi p'aitis, too, why Senator Elkins fathered' the rebate law Vhieti bears his name, no line of which he ever drew, It is probably treasonable to say k,-butMthe fact is that Philander Knox, then Attor ney (jeneral, now Senator from Pennsylvania, drew the Elkins anti-rebate jaw as it stands on, th statutes, and Senator Elkins' only connec tion in it lay ih trie tact that he was chairman of the com mittee whiofa" reported it to the, Senate. , The improbable pnft of the cm rent report is that the President has given his sanc tion to the programme out lined. Is it likely that the committee, assuming that it haa determined upon a pro gramme, has been, able to submit it to the President. who. ever sin'p the commit' tee held its first meeting, has been industriously engaged ih chasing" blur's and bob cats through the rooky fast- nesspsgpR of Colorado? Ur is it nrobable that the Presi dent, even hod thft commit- tpp suVppp'ded fri trespassing ih his vacation to the extent of sending its plnri to him, woufd have considered it be-i tweeh hunts, ad to speak, arid forward his approval to Washington by wireless4 tef egraoby, or telepathy, with' oht eveh consulting his At torney General or other mem befs of his rabliiet? It must bp remembeied thai th Pres ident, ih his last message to Congress, sppriffcally recom mended that the power' to' ad fudge (ho equity of railroads rates complained o,f and the further power to fli an as" burned jut way rate be coh Jerrfed Crr the i'rrtefsta'te Vcfox WATAUGA COUNTY, rriercet'omtnWiori, CertAi'nly there ia ho good grouhds for the assumption that Mr. RooaeVelt has already deter mined to swallow his specific recommendation ahd accept the 8uggestiori8of Senator El kins' committee. There U ho doubt that rih exlentioh of the principle of the antl-rebate law would ac complish great godd. tt would go a, long way toward de stroying the power of t h e trusts, ptc. ' One of the niost promiheht railway men in the country recently assured your correspondent that ey f ry dollar invested in private cars paid , the companies bo investing a profit of not less than &7j per cent. lie said that the railway conipariips were powerless to resist the demands of the owners of pri vatecars. They are always iihmehse concerns which con tribute so largely to the traf tic of any line on which they were located that a complete withdrawal of theirshipment would seriously affect the profits of the railway. They demand that therailwayo pay therh for the use of their cars arid the rriil way which pays the highest rjrice gets the business. This, of course, serves the owners of the crirs just as well as wotlld a re bate on the freight rate. It gives them a lower riet rate than any ot their competitors arid enables, tHeni to driVeali competitors from the field. And yet tlie pxistiriglawdoea tlot totich thia forni dfdis crimiiiatioh because it can not be legally cdnstrupd as a rebate. In so far ds the pro posed law wodld go, it would do cbo'J. but it wonld notco near so far as President Hoosevlt has insisted that it shall go And while it is entirely possible that the President may be induced to accept this as all he can ob tain, there ia riot the slight est reason for believing that he has already agreed to do so. A group of Repnbli?nn statesman were talking poli tics on a street corner in Washington today. ''What are the chances of your send ing us a tariff bill? asked one Senator. "Very poor," re plied one of the Representa tives present. "Why." . said th Senator, "If we don't do something for the people who are demanding tariff read justment it. will mean a Dem ocratic majority in the next house as sufe as sin." "I know that" replied the repre sehtative, "but what are we going to do about it? New York, Pennsylvania and 0- hio command the first three seats oh the Ways' arid Means commit tee. Those three states derive more profit from the tariff than all the western states put together, and nothing short oi a cy e'o'rie would rifafce Payne, D'al zell and Grosvenor move a step in a direction which might lead to a reduction of tb'e profits of theif constitii eh'tti." "Senator, what are the schedules which calf fof a' re duction?! askecf your corses rVfnd'eri.t. "ef",' itfititi $ three men in one breath. Tbreff am? f tirar ttf ffcw N. Cm THURSDAY the teel trust was sellihg steel plates ' to foreign ship- builders, "delivered oh the Clyde" for $24 a. ton, while the American ship builders had to iiay in the city of Cleveland thirtty' two dollars ton. "You can't build a mer chant marine with subsidies in the face of such conditions as that,'? he added. Then an other spoke uh arid related that American railroads were laboring at a similar disad vantage because of the Steel bust. "Our American roads, he said, "have, to pay be tween $'6 and $7 more for ev ery ton of steel rails they lay than their Catiadiah Compel itdis, just north of the line. The Canadian roadsare char gihg lower freight rates and making more profit and are spending thousands of dol lars every year to induce A merican farmers to take up land along their lines."

Another Plunje Towards Eeipacta Ibllltr. All North Carolina news in the Repuhljjcan camp comes via Washington. The South ern Radicals pay no atten tion to any local political news unless it is sent out from Washington. If a North Carolina Republican should determine to tun for Sanita ry Inspector of tiauglng Dog he would feel that he ought to have the announcement made from Washington City. So great is the federalists tendency of the North Caro lina Republicans that if they had their way they would a bolish state and county line and let all officers be nppoin ted from fVashingtbn. The latest from Washing" ton is;that Spencer Black burn has obtained subscrip. tions amounting to twenty thousand dollars for the pur jiose of establishing a Repub lican daily newspaper. It is also "given out" at Washing ton that "the most of the subscribers are cotton mill men and that several of them have never identified them selves with the Republican organisation." That sort of statement is supposed to give strength to the new en terprise: It will fooi nobody. Not a dollar tb any such fund has been given by any cotton mill men except Re publican cotton mill men, arid they are rather scarce in North Carolina, as dilligenN ly as the Republicans and assistant Republican sympa thizers have souuht; to se duce them from the true po litical faith. Who would be influenced by a "cotton mill man" who la ashamed to admit that he puts up money to back t h e discredited old hulk of revp nne ofhVprsandilistillprs who control theHepublicnn party in North Carolina. There are some cotton mill men in N. C. who are Republicans, but they are few in number, and as the high tariff walls de prive them of needed foreign markets they are growing beautifully less. Will the new attempt to make "a respectable party in North Carolina by means of a newspaper turn out to be as great a failure as the at tempt to give if'respcctabili ty" by the Yerkps &Co,' ban kei?" Or will history rppeat itsell? Years and years ago, when the late Major William A. Smith was the leader of the Republican" 'party in thn Raleigh district, became in to possession of thp Radical daily at Raleigh and essayed to run it in the interest of the party. Suddenly he shut up the paper arid sold the mate rial to job printers. Sometime after, when asked by a friend why he quit the publication of the paper. Major Smith said with emphasis: "0, you can't print a pa pet for a par ty that can't read." M lckburn might print two editionsone in English lor those who can read and one as (L pictorial for those who cannot read it m wishes it he wishes it to avoid the fate of M a j 0 r Smith's venture.
