That there Is nothing in the constitution to pre vent the delegation by law to the in terstate railroad commission of the r.ou'cr to fiv ruilro.'irl rtPH was de clared in effect by Judges Gilbert, Morrow and Doss of the I'nlted States circuit court today when they sus tained the demurrer of the commis sion to the application for an In junction Med by the Southern Pa cific and threw the railroad out of court In Its attempt to enjoin the en o m of lower rates from the Willamette valley to San Francisco. The railroad will be glv. n until to morrow morning to make answer. The decision was the first of the kind handed down since the passage of tho Interstate rate law by con gress. Today's victory was won by Luther M. Walter, special attorney for the railroad commission. It means that the railroads cannot attack the new rate on Oregon lumber on legal grounds, but must plead that the rate Is confiscatory if it gets it before the court for review. The commissioners' demurrer to any testimony given by the railroad's attorney at the hearing of the demur - ii r shuts off all attack on fixing the rate from a legal standpoint unless; the road appeals to the I'nlted States supreme court.

"Pendleton people should be more careful than they have ever been in guarding against typhoid,' 'declared Dr C. J. Smith this morning. "Ty phoid cases are now more prevalent than at any time during the summer and this year they appear to be due to local causes, where as in the past most of the typhoid has come here from the country." "All water should be boiled before being ued and grocers should see that nil their produce is thoroughly screened In order to prevent con tamination from flies." Though he has had confidence in the Pendleton water In the past Dr. Smith believes that this year the supply is responsible for much of tho typhoid now existing. But in his judgment much of the trouble comes I from the dead ends of the various j mains. He says that a number of re , cent cases have occurred In families living in tho lower pai ls of town and I using water from the dead ends. In 'order to lessen the danger the dead ends should be flushed often, even if the water supply is low. Not long ago a? a member of t In state board of health.

Denver, Sept. 30. That branch banks over the country would by making the money of the country available to the use of every honest man change the attitude of people of the United States towards banks and bankers was declared by Dr. Wood row Wilson, president of Princeton University in his speech on "The Ranker Nation," before the bankers' convention here today. Mr. Wilson said: A system of branch banks, very simply and inexpensively managed and not necessarily open every day In the week, could be organized, which would put the resources of the rich banks of the country at the disposal of whole countrysides to whose mer chants and farmers only a restricted nnd local credit is now open, the at titude of plain men everywhere to wards the banks and banking would be changed utterly within less than a generation.

There would be plenty of invest ments if you carried your money to the people of the country at large and had agents in hundreds of villages who knew the men in their neighbor hoods who could be trusted with loans and who would make profitable use of ik.m Vnnr monew moreover, would quicken and fertilize the country, and. that other result would follow. That the average voter would learn that the money of the country was not being hoarded: that It was at the disposal of any Inmost man who could use it: and that to strike at the banks was to strike at the general con venience and the general prosperity.
