BditorP'etm:—- President Roosevelt, who lias among many other freely expressed Convictions that of regarding no time like the present, for work, may yet decide that an extra ses sion of Congress in the Spring for legislating on the railway rate question will be advisable. The general impression has been that an extra session would not be called before the early autumn, but no one realized more keenly than the President how insistent the coun try has become in its demand that something should be done, and quickly in the matter. If the extra session is postponed until fall the result will be more killing of time, and possible postponement of action for another year. Persons deeply interested in the proposition to authorize the Inter state Commerce Commission to fix railroad rates view with alarm the delay that is likely to take place before any legislation can be effect ed. With every week of delay the pressure on Congress from outside sources increases and the problem of legislation grows corresponding ly more complex. The New York Chamber of Commerce, one of the wealthiest and most powerful or ganizations in tlie I'nited States, has opposed the proposition to en large the power of the Interstate Commerce Commission to fix rates for the rail roads and in lowa the Farmers Alliance have hanged in eiligy Congressman Hepburn be cause of his attitude on the ques tion. Washington is over run with representatives of the various rail roads and also the agents of great industrial companies all us ing the most powerful influence against and for the rate bill. Thus it will be seen that many cooks are helping to make broth which is j likely to be spoiled or burned alto gether. Congressmen who keep their ears to the ground, and the most patriotic American cannot deny that there are many such, find themselves eruely confused by the various demands. The Presi dent who has been eager for the Senate to act upon rate leglislation I at this session lias nevertheless ac i ceded to their statement that it ■ wouid be impossible and he had ! made his official and personal plans j with the view of the extra session i in October, but realizing the im | portance of pushing the matter j through at the earliest time it may j bo that he will sacrifice his person - ! al convenience and decide upon a j Spring session. Agricultural interests absorbed I the Senate Thursday and for once I the farmer was the man of the j hour. For almost an entire ai'ter j noon the Senate was engaged in a I discussion of the policy of distri | billing ordinary farm and garden seeds from the Agricultural De partment through members of Con gress. Mr. Lodge and those with him in the debate on the subject that the seeds sent out where the common varieties to be bought of dealers everywhere and urged that only rare varieties should be sup plied free to the people. lie criti cized the appropriation of g240,000 for supplying seeds which were of the cheapest and commonest variet ies. He characterized the whole scheme as a humbug and added, "year after year we are appropriat ing the people's money for the pur pose of making gifts to our consti tuents. It is a pleasant thing to do, we all like to do it but we should not forget that we are mak ing the country pay for it." A Wonderful Savin};.

Anti-Trust For The Trusts Them selves to Consider. The latest anti trust emanation is an anomaly in the present flood of trust busting literature, in that it makes an appeal to the trusts themselves for their consideration, on grounds of trust benefit. The trust magnates should delegate some one of their number to get this out-of the usual-rut origina tion, in order to a deciphering of its contents, or for turning over to one of their attorneys with instructions to re port. They might find that there were "millions in it." The publishers of this unique presentment are Ihe Berlin Publishing Co., Berlin, Pa., who will forward copy of the book for 75 cents, post paid.
