While the so-called railroad rate bill, enacted at the recent congress, has become effective, It appears to be a mass of contradictions In Its various and sundry provisions, and, indeed, to some of the most eminent lawyers it is absolutely Incomprehensible. A clear solution of Its mysteries must be advanced by the interstate commerce commission and even then the highest tribunal will be called upon to decide whether or not the commission's in terpretation is correct. In any event, there are roufih days ahead for the commission and the railroad lawyers. Alerady five hundred questions have been filed by the transportation com panies and the seven members of the board must answer them. Under the old law rates made'iby the commission did not so into effect until enforced by a court order, whereas under this new law rates are effective within thirty days unless on appeal Is taken to the supreme court. The provisions apply to sleeping car companies, express companies, oil-pipe hires, private freight lines and all individuals or corporations engaged In Uiterstate traffic. The moat wholesome remedy, how ever, will biing relief to those who have been the victims of favoritism applied to others, and severo penalties will be inflicted upon companies and officials found guiity of giving rebates. Instead of punishing the road merely with a fine, the law is sufficient to Cor.vir't Officials and they may be sent ! to prison without the alternative of submitting to a line. Thai is aras tic, but it is right, because one of the giealest iniquities reretofore was re bating by which Standard Oil, for In stance, was enabled to crush competi tors and hold a complete monopoly. This, in addition to government super vision over pipe lines, will preent further outrages, the consequences of Which were fearful. But newspapers and howling polltl ticfans who profess to understand the full Intent and meaning of tlr; law are thoroughly at sea. Not even the commission can give an exact defini tion, of the numerous sections, The majority of railroads are prepared to obey, but they do not know exactly W hut that means.

On the other hand. President Eliot of ; Har vard goes about his work in an unos tentatious manner, seeking good and doina good, without making a spec- tacle oti hlmsHf W W ' occasions. When wf remember 'that It is certainly not light to Question "his motives and assign others which never entered his head. Church Workers in Bunks. The failure of the Real Estate Trust Company of Philadelphia again directs attention to the fact that the head of the establishment was a leader in church work and a man lnvhom the public had the most implicit confidence. Immediately after his death the crash came, and it may be that he died of natural causes, while it is also proba ble and possible that like others he speculated and lost and the thought of what it meant killed him. At any rate, as one of the church officers in Philadelphia expressed It, President Hippie's conduct was enough to de stroy a person's faith in human nature. He had control of the church funds amounting to millions of dollars. Of course, the wicked always empha size a story which deals with the defalcation of a church worker and leader. That, however, does not Justify i the statement that most of them go astray. There are hundreds and hun dreds of bank presidents over the country and with few exceptions they are leaders in church life. The posi tions of responsibility which they hold do not make that necessary, but un less they were identified with the righteous cause they would hardly be asked to manage financial institutions. The penitentiaries are not filled with Sunday school leaders. They are choked with the motley crew of the depraved and the vicious. There have been many cases similar to that of Hippie, and there may be more, but we maintain that it is the excention and not the rule when a church leader turns out to be a thief The democratic primary in South Carolina resulted as The Evening Times predicted, Ansel being elected governor and Lyon winning for attor ney general after a sensational cam paign. The new governor and Mr. Ansel will be that Is i pposi'd to the dispensary, and Mr. Lyon has been unrelenting in prosecuting the liquor grafters ' heretofore. By the time the legislature meets in January the peo ple will be prepared to kill the institu tion, substituting prohibition, or local option under dispensary regulations, in those counties where there Is a desire for it. The primary is a blow to Senator Tillman, and while he has generally been able to take care of himself there is no record of his suc cess when he championed the cause of any other candidates. South Caro lina will not be long in redeeming it self from its shame. Editor Varner's ministers from North Carolina are attracting almost as much attention in New York as Editor Watterson's Kentucky beauties. After visiting Coney Island the advertising preachers announced that "New York is in the grasp of the devil." The Evening Post says there is an old adage that a man generally finds what he is looking for. Our distin guished party, however, merely stumbled upon his Satanic majesty, no doubt. Whether Mr. Bryan comes or stays away the fair in Raleigh In October gives early promise of being one of the greatest events in the history of I the society, and all of us are natur- ally delighted with the prospects. There will be many excellent features, the idea being to show more of the substantial fruits of North Carolina than the flashy things. Mr. Bryan's appearance, of course, will make the attendance all the greater, and Just now he will draw better than on foi mer occasions. From all parts of the south there comes a protest against Mr. Richard Cheatham serving longer as secretary of the southern cotton association be- cause of his gambling proclivities. A movement, has been., started in Nortli Carolina to have Mr. 0. C. Moore of Charlotte succeed him, and we heartily endorse the suggestion. Mr. Moore has as much, if not more ability than Mr. Cheatham, he is enthusiastic to a de gree, and, besides, he is not a gambler. Mr. Comer has been elected governor of Alabama and the fight there was almost as warm as that celebrated contest in Georgia. Comer's election is probably explained in the statement that he stood on the Georgia plat form. At the moment we have pro found sympathy for our distinguished friend, tie Montgomery Advertiser, which worked night and day against Comer, but failed to defeat him. It is not at all likely that Winston Churchill will be nominated by the re publican convention for governor of New Hampshire and in that event It is said that he may run independently. That would give the democrats an ex cellent chance of capturing the state, so the canvass of Winston will help some. "The result in Georgia," says the New Orleans Times-Democrat, "has afforded Tom Watson a novel and pleasing sensation. He now knows how It feels to be on the winning side." What? Call the Honorable Hoke a populist? Socks on the HathiitK Reach 'Atlantic City prudes hay ha Such a shock! For the lair sum mer girl has taken to socks on the bathing beach and abandoned the conventional long stockings. This awful breach In the conven tions was made by a girl from staid and prim Philadelphia. When she appeared yesterday in bare legs and attracted the attention of beach loungers," reter Parker, captain of the life guards, hurried aghast to Mayor Stoy for instructions. But fhe Mayor is a wise official and he knew better than to undertake to settle the all-important question of hose or half-hose; and where there was but one pair yesterday, today there were half a dozen pairs of stockingsless calves twinkling along the sands, with a prospect of a gen eral adoption of the new fad within a day or two, for "If the girls wish to wear socks I have no official oblectjon," Mayor Stov said this evening. "I have had enough of trouble in trying to regu late bathing rigs in former seasons, and so long as there is nothing pos itively indecent about the costumes there will be no objection." According to local haberdashers, there has not yet arisen a strong demand for bathing socks, and it is believed that the daring pioneers of yesterday and today borrowed their brothers' half hose for the occasion. Atlantic City Correspondence of the Philadelphia North American VASELINE NO GOOD FOB HAIB. Dandruff Germ Thrives In It, As Well As In All Crease. A well known Chicago hair spe cialist invited the Inter-Ocean re porter to come to his office and see, under a microscope, how the germ that causes dandruff thrives in vase line. The epecialist said that all hair preparations containing grease, simply furnish food for the germs and help to propagate them. The only way to cure dandruff is to de stroy the germs, and the only hair preparation that will do that is New bro's Herplclde. "Destroy the cause, you remove the effect." Without dandruff no falling hair, no bald ness. Ask for Herpicide. It is the only destroyer of the dandruff germ. Sold by leading druggists. Send 10c.

I I know from observation as to drunkenness, and an awful experi ence as to use of morphine that the Keeley Treatment is a specific cure for both diseases. I began taking morphine to relieve pain; the use of the drug grew so insidiously that I became helpless before I was aware of it. For ten years I fought against it in vain, trying many so called antidotes at great expense, without benefit, my struggles only facilitating my descent into the in describable tortures of an Opium hell. I entered the Greensboro, N. C, Keeley Institute twelve years ago a mental and physical wreck with out energy 'or care lor the duties of life; the past becoming a blank, and the future hopeless. 1 went not ex pecting to be cured, but that my life might be prolonged a short while. The beneficial effects of the treatment became auuaren! at once the unbearable craving for the drug was eradicatedIt hsver has returned. I was, and remain, cured have no more desire for morphine than if it never existed. All patients were treated with kindest consideration none were rebuffed or criticised, and I take pleasure in testifying to the unvary ing kindness and courtesy of every official of the Institution. I earnest ly advise every whiskey diseased drunkard and nerveless drug-user to take the Keeley Treatment forth with urge your friends to lose' no time, remind them that in drunken ness as in other diseases, there is a period from beyond which none can return. This line passed the help less victim must go down to an ever lasting doom. The reasons are self evident, the Keeley Treatment takes the drunkard from the gutter and drug-user from his dreams, releasing them from the clutches of a merci less tyrant rehabilitates them for the duties and obligations of life it drives the fears from the sorrow ing woman a drunkard's wife a drunkard's mother: it revives their sense of moral obligation; in fact makes them new men.
