That there are lots of Yankees who
: still hate the South and want to see
the people of the South oppressed and
I' humiliated on every, possible occasion,
S. Is often mnde apparent by the titter,
ranees of newspapers at the North.
Here, for Instance, comes the Chicago
. Chronicle with this bray:
"We ouly regret that the presi
dent. after calling off Father Sher
man’s trip, had not sent a whole
division down there to march back
and forth between Chattanooga
and Savannah for the rest of hts
term."
With so many sectional asses bray
ing like tills into the ears of the peo
ple of the North, more than forty years
after the war between the North and
■ the South Is supposed to have ended,
how long will It take to entirely re
store good will between the two sec
tions?
THE RAILROAD RATE BILL IN
CONGRE88.
The newspapers of The Herald’s
r
clasB cannot keep up with the railroad
rate bill, now under consideration In
the senate, without trespassing too
much upon space to be allotted to oth
er matters of public Interest, but de
velopments of Important significance
crowded upon each other so thick and
faBt on Monday that a review of them
Beems practical la the limited space of
a column.
The course of events in the senate
on Monday seems to warrant the con
clusion that the so-called “Allison com
promise,” which had the Indorsement
of President Roosevelt, proved
boomerang, and as a result Senator
Aldrich, who was In charge of It In
the absence of Senator Allison, who
has been sick, was compelled to ac
cept Important restrictions Insisted
upon by those senators who have been
fighting for a limited court review.
Senator Allison himself appeared in
the senate on Monday, and, threaten-
lng to repudiate the amendment issued
under his name, punctured the Aldrich
"compromise" bubble, and, aided by
the opponents to a “broad court re-
view," forced the conservative sen
a tors to accept provisions limiting the
lower federal courts In their power to
enjoin a rate set by the Interstate
Commerce Commission.
The not result of Monday’s dealings
Is that In return for the amendment
conferring jurisdiction oh olrcult
courts to review orders of the com
mission, friends of the bill, by agree
ment of the senate leaders, will secure
counter-concessions as follows:
That no order of the Commission
shall be-suspended or set-aside by an
Interlocutory order or decree without
a hearing had on the application there
for, unless at least five days’ notice
shall be given to the Commission of
the time and place fixed for said, hear
ing.
That such order shall not be made
unless two judges of tho court to
which application is mndo shall con
cur in such Interlocutory order or de
cree. I
That an appeal from such Interlocu
tory order or decree may be taken
Within thirty days from the entry
thereof, but shall He ouly to the su
preme court of the United States.
That the rate-making section of the
bilk shall not be amended.
Another feature of Monday's strug
gle over the rate bill, and one of much
Importance, although overshadowed by
the court review question, was the'
adoption of the Culberson anti-pass
amendment as a substitute for the
similar amendment proposed by Sen
ator Fornker. The Foraker amend
ment was rejected because It did not
seem to bo sufficiently .explicit in Its
prohibition of free pnsses by inter
state railroads, and because Southern
senators feared that under Its terms
the Jim Crow car laws of the Southern
states might be interfered with.
Significance may be attached to the
fact that twelve Republican senators
voted for the Culberson substitute
with twenty-six Democrats, giving it
total of thirty-eight votes.
The Culberson anti-pass amendment
prohibits the issuance of passes by
roitds engaged in interstate commerce
to anyone except clergymen and pau
pers, and imposes heavy penalties for
violation of the provisions. The law
