realizing that It has promoted the efficiency of the service, snd that permanent progress cati best be obtained by the consummation of the same. "Therefore, be it resolved to this end. that we urge that we be placed under tie rulings of a claaglHed civil service, pledging the department of which we are an integral part, our supreme allegiance for the betterment of th service In our own respective communities throughout the United States. Express Appreciation. "Whereas, we highly appreciate the efforts of the federal officers, the national Mid state officers of the league who have so liberally contributed to ttie success of this meeting, and especially the Y.

M. C. A. of Des Moines, whose officers have seemed to vie with one another in the making of our stay In their niidt one long to be remembered by virtue of their unlimited hospitality, and feeling keenly grateful for the cavalry drill exhibition a given for our beneilt by Colonel West at Fort Des Moines, and as we feel deeply indebted to Postmaster Myerly for his address of welcome and the attention he has given us while in the capital city, snd to the officers of the Commercial club for their efforts in our behalf: and, further, the fair treatment and correct reporting of the proceedings of our convention at the hands of the local press, be it resolved, that a vote of Uianks be extended to them respectively," The officers and members of the association say that this has been the most successful meeting they have ever had, with a large attendance and a deep Interest taken in the various matters tending to the betterment of the service, as well as the definite action taken for reforms effecting their individual welfare. The reports of the officers show that the bsgue Is now In tti best financial condition it has every experienced and Is growing rapidly In membership and bids fair soon to extend Its organisation and influence over practically the whole I'ntted states.

Convention Notes. Iowa has the largest representation at the convention. Illinois eamo second. There were seventeen states represented by delegates. These came from Maine and New York on the east, the Dakotas, Minnesota, Michigan and Wisconsin on the north, from Mississippi and Texas on the south and Nebraska and Kansas on the west.

The National league is years old and r.an doubled Its membership every year. The Iowa state league ranks highest among the slate leagues In membership, organisation and percentage. yesterday President C. O. Barrv of the Iowa league was called to one side by a number of the postmasters, ostensibly for a consultation on some business matter, and was then presented with a fine diamond pin as a token of esteem for him personally and for his good work in placing the low a league at Its present high standard.

RICGS SPEAKS OCTOBER 15 COMMISSIONER WYUK BEMKVKS IT XECF.SSARV. Interstate Commerce Recommend-tiou Not Folowed In Detail. That the new form of bill of lading which the railroads will put in effect Nov. 1 will be the cause of litigation Is the opinion of Freight Commissioner K. Q.

Wylle, who returned yesterdsy from Chicago, where he attended the meeting of the National Industrial Traffic league. The bill of lading matter was one ot the chief subjects to be taken up at this meeting and it is the opinion that the matter mil be brought before tbe Inter-Mate commerce commission and may ultimately find Its way to the supreme court. While the new for.n of bill of lading Is baaed upon the recommendation of the interstate commerce commission, the recommendation Is exceeded tn several Important particulars, and it Is these points which the shippers declare are objectionable and will ultimately require an appeul to the courts ii nut sooner eliminated. lmHrtfint Differences. "The new form of bill of lading Is hugely based on the recommendation only of the Interstate commerce said Mr.

Wylle, "but it goes beyond the recommendation certain particulars, as follows: The carriers offer to the shippers the choice, of two rates one the ordinary tariff rate'i-equlring Ihe signature of the shipper, assenting to the terms of the bill of lading and releasing the carrier from certain liabilities. In the event that thin contract of release (bill of lading! is not signed by the snipper or his representative, the carriers' risk rating, which adds lo per cent to the regular rate, will be charged. There Is also a provision that claims. If any, are to riled within a specified time. These are the most Important phases of ihe new bill of lading.

What is known as the Carmlcha'1 amendment to the Interstate law holds that the common carriers arc responsible to the shipper for loss, damage, delay, and that no contract, rule, receipt or regulation shall exempt any carrier from Ihe liability Imposed: provided, that nothing In that section of the law shall deprive any (wilder of such receipt or bill of lading of any remedy or right of action which he has under existing law. There was a representative of the carriers in attendance. His remarks made It clear that they hold that this statute is unconstitutional; while the bill of lading reads it Is subject to the laws and statutes, It la plainiy the Intent to proceed on the theory that this so-called Carmlchael amendment part of the statute Is null and void. It Is reasonably certain that this is a subject that will ultimately find its way to the United States supreme court. Limit On Limitation.

It was also contended by the league members that the stipulation requiring the niing of any claims within the short time allowed was injurious and that the bill of lading should not attempt to restrict the present rights of the owners of the property to file claims within the period of the statute of limitations. It expected, ai has already been said, that thi new form of bill of lading will lie the only one the carriers will use west of the Mississippi river, as well as east, but It will be remembered that on Intrastate shipments the rates that are being charged in Iowa are maximum rates. The schedule promulgated by the Iowa board of railroad commissioners contains thi clause: "No contract, receipt, ruie or regulation shall exempt any railway corporation engaged In transporting persons or property from the liability of a common carrier, or carrier of passengers, which would exist had no contract, receipt or regulation been entered The position of the carrier Is also further affected by the Missouri intrastate rate situation. Some of these rates were established by the statutes, others 'by the board of railroad commissioners and where said statute rates ore being charged it will be found that the statutes prescribing them do not make any provision for adding ID per cent thereto. I'n-doubtedly the only thing for the shipping public to do will be to use the new form of bill of lading under protest, as It Is pinin that the carriers' Intention is to insist npon a double basis of rates one the ordinary rate, the other 10 per cent higher, and undoubtedly it ts their expectation that this will be resisted tn the courts.

The r-olnts at Issue undoubtedly will be brought up before either the interstate commerce conimlsiion or the courts within the very near future.

IT COMES" FROM ANDERSON LAItGKKT MAXl'FACTl'RKR OK SILOS IV COrVYRY. Will Heard a Great Territory I rom Pes Moines, for Iowa Vacs Silos.

The Indiana Silo company of Anderson, I the largest manufacturers of slloa In the has made complete arrangements to build a large branch factory here and the erection of the factory building will he commenced at once. The architect's plans are completed for a building 9nx2i)0 feet, which Is to be located st East sixth and Market streets. At the start twenty-five men wlU be employed in the facory. This Information was given out at the offices of the Greater IHs Moines committee yesterday. Ii.

M. Wilson, secretary and treasurer of the company, is In the city now, completing- the arrangements. II. C. Hargrove' this city will be the western tli agent for the concern.

"The Indiana Silo company is one of the largest, if not the largest, manufacturer of silos In the country," said E. O. Wylle, who has been assisting In the negotiations here. "They have an enormous business In northern Illinois, tu Wisconsin and in southern Minnesota, and during this year have shipped Into Iowa over 3" silos from their plant at Anderson. Tills Iowa trsde Is just starting and It is certain to Inrreaxe until Iowa Is one of the greatest ensilage using states in the country.

Reach Great Territory. "Their plant In Des Moines Is planned to huild the very best grades of silos, using only strictly first grade material. The location of Des Moines will enable them to secure their lumber at a decided saving In freight costs over the rate that Is charged on that commodity at Andvson. The western lumber Is the best that grows for the making of silos and on this kind of lumber the saving In freight costs here is practically 15 per cent as compared with the rale to Anderson. "Added ts this advantage, the location of this city will give the company a I great field In Minnesota and other north ern states, and.

of course, gtves every advantage for the distribution of Its output throughout Iowa and point to the south and west." As an illustration of what the future will be for such a plant here. Mr. Wylle gave some figures on the results obtained ir, the dairying and stock feeding Industries by the use of the silo method of feeding. Big Profit In" Food. "According to statistics of the Ohio experiment station, covering a period of three years." he said, "the experiments show that the use of silos enables milk and butter to be produced at one-half the cost of feeding by other methods.

The experiments showed that the added profits per cow per month obtained by the silo method of feeding Is 13.40, and the results of feeding tests at Iowa. Illinois and Missouri experiment stations show that SO per cent Is gained In fattening steers by silo feeding. Although probably not commonly known. Iowa pro-dunes more butter than any other state, and is destined to be the greatest dairy state In the union. "With such a field aa this, and with the value of the silo fully demonstrated, some idea can be had of the probable, or it should be said, certain, opportunities open for the manufacture of silos In Des Moines.

"We are certainly to be congratulated upon the securing of this plant." Secretary Wilson of the Indiana Silo company and Mr. Hargrove are making arrangements to begin the work of erecting the factory building at once, as soon as the material can be put on the ground. It will be a modern building 50x3(0 feet in dimensions, and will be rushed to completion at the earliest possible date. VOTERS PRESENT REQUESTS Attorney General Furnishes Secretary of State Opinions. Attorney General Byers yesterday sent to the secretary of state an opinion covering the point mentioned by The Register and Leader, Tuesday, to the effect that voters may present their own signed requests for senatorial ballots.

His opinion follows: I beg to acknowledge receipt of your communication of Oct. in which you say: "I have been asked whether a republican alerter, who desires to express his choice of candidate for the States senate at the polls in November, under the provisions of the recent amendment to the primary law, must sign a request statement furnished by the Judges of election, or whether he msv sign and present to the Judges a similar statement prepared by himself or others. In other words, is It the duty of the Judges of election to furnish primary ballots to those republican electors ONLY who sign reuuesl statements furnished by said Judges, or are said Judges required by the law to furnish primary ballots to all voters who present properly signed re-guest statements. In the form required by law, without regard to where they obtained them? "Will you kindly favor me with your opinion In this matter, and greatly Oblige." In response thereto I have to say, that the voter is not required to use the request statement furnished by the Judges of election, but may present a request statement either written by himself or printed for him. and if the request is In form as required by the recent amendment to the primary law.

and properly signed by the voter, it Is the duty of the Judges of election to furnish him a prl-tnary ballot. Respectfully, H. W. Byers. -Attorney General of Iowa.

Hon. W. C. Haywaid. Secretary of State.

Th- report of the resolutions committee recommends the passage of bills for the establishment of a local parcels post, the establishment of postal saving banks to be extended to offices of all classes and recommending that the postmasters of the third and fourth class be placed under a classified civil service.

The committee reported as follows and the report was adopted unanimously: "Whereas, We fully realize the Importance ot co-operallt with the department In every effort to improve the conditions of the postal service In carrying out Its policies to the best of our ability, be It "Resolved, That the Instructions given by the various representatives of the department during this convention be received and Incorporated Into the dally duties of every postmaster of our class. "As It Is our conviction that the antagonism to local parcels post by the severil commercial associations is unwarranted, and that they have misconstrued the prime purpose of the same, be it "Resolved, That we Indorse and recommend the passage of a bill for a local parcels post as proposed by Postmaster Oeneral Meyer, believing that it will greatly Increase the efficiency of the rural route system as well as Increase the earning capacity of tbe same, thereby materially lessening If not entirely eliminate Ing the postal deficit. Indorse Postal Savings Banks. "It Is our sincere belief that the panic which sproad throughout the United btuts last fall was largely caused by the lack of confidence of the people, and especially the foreign residents of the Vnlled States, In the banking system and high financial methods used by the large banks of Wall street, and we noted with nleastire that the credit of the overn- I ment was never ejuestinned; "Therefore, be In resolved by the postmasters In convention here that we most heartily urge the establishment of postal savings banks, and that they may be extended to all classes of offices at the discretion of the postmaster general. "We indorse the merit system in promulgated by the present administration, WIFE IS ALSO GIVES 4J500 ALI-MOXV BY COlRTOUDER.
