We began 152 years aeo in a little sb op a few-minutes walk from where we are now ; a great many things have happened, we don't remember them all. We made as good paint as we could and we learned to make better. We are the oldest now: we don't know whether we had any teacher or not ; it's so long ago; if we had, he's gone j arid forgotten. We should have been j forgotten, if we hadn't made good j paint and friends. You buy your shoes; we have an ad? vantage in that; if you make a mis? take, yon can't stop it quick; if you make a bit, you can push it quick.

We make a strong paint that takes less gallons, saves half the cost of painting your house, and it's like that leather of yours for wear. It is all paint and the strongest of paint.

MAY TEST RAILROAD RATE LAW It Has Been Intimated to the Su? preme Court That the Railroads May Attack the Recent Act o? Congress. Washington, Aug. 29.-It, has been intimated to the United States Su? preme Court that a test case of the railroad rate law will be submitted in the spring of next year, after the adjournment of Congress. This state? ment is made upon good authority and despite the assertion that the railroads of this country intend to comply cheerfully^with the provisions of the Hepburn law and net indulge in captious opposition. At the re? cent meeting held in Atlantic City, which was attended by counsel rep? resenting the leading railroad inter? ests of the United States, it was agreed that with a view of lulling the public into security and trustful? ness it should be scattered broadcast over the land that the railroads would take their medicine as it had been administered to them by Congress during the session which ended June 30, 1906. Attention was called to the fact that this legislation had been drafted practically by the railroads themselves and loopholes had design? edly been left for future consider? ation and there would be no let-up on the part of the railroad interests with a view of testing the constitu? tionality of the statute enacted in deference to public opinion. An un? derstanding was reached that it would not be wise to bring a test case before the United States Supreme Court while Congress was m session this winter, but action H this kind should be deferred until after the 4th of March, 1907, when ths short ses? sion of the Fifty-ninth Congress would close. Meanwhile counsel for the railroad corporations could give their time and attention to rhe prep? aration of a test case ba ie i upon ex? perience derived from the effects of the railroad rate law which went into effect today. This would give at least six months for observations of ,the practical workings of the new law and enable counsel for the railroads to fortify and strengthen themselves before going before the Court of last resort in this country. It will be re? called that the time the Hepburn Act was placed upon the statute books the comment was generally made that it had been licked into shape by friends of the great railroad interests of the United States and care had been taken to see that their interests had been properly safeguar? ded. Amendments were tacked on and language changed with a view to muddling and perplexing the public to such an extent that it would take a Philadelphia lawyer to comprehend what real benefit would be derived from the new legislation. Following out this line of cam? paign, attorneys for the leading rail? road corporations o'.' this country are practically unanimous in the belief ! that they have tangled up railroad j rates to such an extent that they will be justfied in going before the United States Supreme Court for a settle? ment of the many perplexing situa? tions which they will foster with a view of getting the best of the pub? lic. There is no question of their ability to do this with the material they now have on hand and which they expect to increase before their case is finally made up for submis? sion to the august tribunal which meets in the Capitol at Washington. Xo disposition was manifested to have the proposed test case come be fore the Supreme Court early in the term which will begin October 8th, 1906. and it was pointtd out that if such a step was taken and a decision rendered while Congress was in ses? sion an opportunity would be given for even more drastic legislation than that which was the outcome of the recent agitation by the law? makers of the nation. Action must be delayed by every possible means, and a confiding public induced to believe that the railroads were per? fectly content with what had been done by Congress and would grace? fully accept the inevitable result. Consequently, a line of policy in keeping -with this understanding was carefully mapped out, and the widest publicity scattered broadcast with a view to hoodwinking all who might show a tendency to make trouble for the railroads. "Fool the people all j you can" said one of the railroad at? torneys during the progress of the Atlantic City conference, "but in the meanwhile don't let us fool each Other. By sticking together we can overcome any evils now existing, or which may be created by the Hep? burn Act and it is well to bear in mind that our friends at Washington will see that our interests are pro? tected." This is the keynote to the cam? paign for railroad education which is to be foisted upon th? American peo? ple by their dear friends, the rail? road magnates, whose sole aim is to get the dollars which the people will be compelled to pay for freight and transportation facilities. There will };.. no Lick of energy on the part of he attorneys for the l.itr corporation's H the preparation of a cr.se which I will successfully run tne gauniiet of i the United States Supreme Court, without any danger of interference by Congress at its approaching ses? sion, which will begin the first Mon? day in December. This statement was made with great gusto at a convivial gathering recently of congenial spirits. POINTS OF RATE BILL. The Law That Congress Enacted to Control the Railroads.
