Sanator Callom has proposed changes | in the signed int to overcome ratate commorce law do- tho effect of the judicial decisions which it is ganorally admitted render the act practically in- operative. The first | was in the Counselman oase, | supreme court of tho United States holding that tho witnoss could not be required to give testimony that would criminate himself. The other docision s that of recont date by Judge Gresham, by which the Interstato Commerce commission is prived of any right rovieion of the act characterizes the re- | fusal to testify ns an offense punish- able eby imorisonment. By reason these decisions the commission finds itself prac | the railroads to oboy the law, | not apparent that itis attempting to do anything in that direction. So far as the public knows it has become abso- lutely inoperative It is true, as Commissioner Veazey | said in reforence to the Gresham inci- | dent, that it doss not diminish the duty of the commission to investigate tions of tha iaw, does not prevent its | gotting testimony in a varicty of ways, | and does not pr district attorneys upon the evidence submitted -to them by the commission and the gvidence thoy aro able to obtain in addition, but manifestly without some judicial powers the commission not accomplish what it was tended to. If it have not the right to apply to the courts to ren- der assistance in obtaining testimony it obviously must fail in every case whero important witnesses decline to testify. Not having the authority itself | to secure unwillingy testimony if it | denied the support of the courts it is practically powerless. The proposed changes in the inter- stato commerce act to meet the adverse decisions are to do away with the im- prisonment penalty and to give wit- nesses immunity from the results of their testimony, and to make corpor- ations subject to prosccution under the la The first of these amendments conforms to the suggestion preme court in the Counselman decision, and the second gives the commussion greater scope than it possessos under the act in its present form. Another and | very important amendment proposes to permit trafl ontrac rail- companies under col ctions, reserving the right to Interstate Commerce com- on to cancel them if they produce isonable rates or discrimination Inother words it proposes to allow pool- ing under legslative regulations, n plan which has been growing in favor for the last year o two as being essential to a golution of the railroad problem and which it is presumad will have litile popular opposition. There ought to be no doubt about the adoption of theso amendments and they shonld go into effect at the oar possible. It is to be expected, of course, that they will encounter opposi- tion from those who are hostile to the law, but this class ropresents an ex- tremely small minority of the people. The great majority desive that the law hall stand if it can bo made effective, and not many doubt thal this can be done. Theve is reason to beliove that | the permission of pooling, under the conditions provosed, would greatly sim- plify the work of tho Interstate Com- merce commission, vont prosscutions hy can-, in- A REGION OF LAWL It would seem from the responsible and uncontradicted statements as to the amount of lawlessness in the Indian Ter- tion on the part of congress in adopting legislation looking to the opening of thut territory to scttlement. It is pro- posed to appoint'a commission to troat with fhe five civilizad tribes in the Indian .

In presenting this matter tention of the days ago Senator souri said that the four states of Kansas, Missouri, Arkansas and are divectly and immediately concerned in changing the existing status among the five civilized tribes, and he declared that the time has como when the people of the United States can no longer tol- erate the conditions in the Indian Terri- tory. He said that crime there is ram- pant, corruption rife, and the favce of administoring justice isa blot and a stain upon the judicial system of the United States. The region of- fers un asylum for refugees from justice, who organize raids upon adjoin- could bo to the at- senate a few Vest of Mis- the Indian country. Congress estab- lished & court in the territory, but its criminal jurisdiction is not complete Over portions of the Indian Territory the courts at Paris, Tex., Fort Smith, Arl., ana Wichita, Kun,, have juris- diction, and this arrangement is found | to be not only extremely expensive, but it is said also to he conducive to cor- ruption. The attorney general of the United States is uuthority for the state | ment that these courts form the larg items of expenso in kis annual report from year to year, According to the last census the whites and negroes in the Indian Terri- tory largely outaumbered the Indiuns, and, as Senator Vest sugegested, the time is speedily coming when the ag- gressivo and dominant race will force itself iuto the territory and present an- other problem to be settled between jus- tice oa the one side and greed on the other. Itiscertainly the dictate of a wise and humane policy to take steps to avert this danger, and the one proposed in the appoiutment of a com- mission with the object defined in the joint resolution is proper and practica~ ble.

T™HE he WHEAT SUPPLY PUZZLE whoat growors of the west have year comploetely carvied out theie determination to keep theirown counsol in rogard to the supply of wheat in their hands. They and the interior elovator men havo resisted the blandishments ons of the who have this so-called wheat “‘authoritios,” been greatly disturbed by their inability | to form even approximate estimates of the amount of that cereal that could be put upon the market. Fven al this late day nobody to know much about the actual supply of wheat in the country. At Duluth and Minneapolis tho flow of wheat from the northwest continues to amaze the oldest and ablest oparators in the mar- The uncertainty has creased the speculative trade, and it is reported that a groat bull contingent has beon organized in Chicago, with outside support, to contro! and advance the prico. According to the last ernment report the average prigo of wheat is 63.2 cents. The next lowest price was 64.5 conts in 1884, while at this time [ast year it was 83.9 cents. Novonly isit lower now than even before since statistics hegan colleeted on the subject, but it is about 20 cents lower than last year's figure, deved high enough 1o give the farmer mors than a fair turn. The Minneapolis 2'vilne, speak- ing of the large receipts at that point, ays: “This extraordinavy movement is said to arise from the clearing of the country side tracke along the several lines of railway centering in this city. These weraall to have been weeks ago and whent re- completely off. The receipts of tho week just past have been larger than ever, winding up with 611 cars on Satuv- day against an average of about 500 for ays ol the The sidetracks would appear to be of extra- ordinary length, and numer. too, to render such results, It said now, however, that there no longer doubt but that ipts will from now on decreas pidly.” This is a pleasant and vful optimism, but e loth to cept the prediction told the same thing for many weeks. The truth is thit no- body knows anything about the supply of wheat in the country, and all predic- tions as to both supply and price seem to be based upon nothing betier thaun coujecture. Ouc thing, howaever, is reasonably certain, and that is thatthe [Zurope has been consumption is re appears ket. ro- coipts cut week. us, is an checked and that | ducing a stock that must sooner or later est day | be replenished from the United States, ing a demand for our grent sur- plus, or at least for a portion of it.
