The Secret Rebate
Chicago Inter Ocean.
Tho Interstate Commerce commission's nmko thn concession, nnd my road will
nntinl report calls sharp attention to tho
secret rebating of railway charges. Some
f tho destructive effects of this rebating
way bo briefly summarized from the com
mission's roport:
Largo producers, such ns tho great pack
ers of Chicago, Omaha and Kansas City,
nra given lower rates than tholr smallor
competitors. Thus tho latter nro driven
uui m Business, nnu, owing to tno lacu
t compotltlon, stockgrowers must tako
lower prices, whllo consumers of meats toilay , tho oppression not only of thou
must pay higher prices. ..,- of individuals, but even ot whole
l avorcd grain buyers nre given a prac-
tlcal monopoly of tho trade over vast areas.
Thus the farmer must tako less for his
grain and tho miller nnd consumer must
pay moro for grain nnd Hour. Further-
more, lower rates are charged on grain for
export than on grain for domestic use.
Thus tho foreign consumer Is favored and
tho foreign milling Industry built up nt
tho expense of domestic Industry and homo
consumers.
These nro merely two Illustrations out
f hundreds of tho rebate ovll. They nro
not only violations of tho statuto law. wn8 j,0ia. tlint to It, as to other comraod
Secret freight rebates aro also tho great ities, the "wholcanlo and retail" principle
capon ot industrial oppression, iiy their
means tho trust can drlvo tho Independent
producer out ot business, although bo may
mako a better and chenpor article. Thus
monopolies can bo established and tho
public mulcted both by lower prices for
hat It sells and higher prices for what
it buys.
Hallway managers, when theso charges
ro pressed home, confess their truth.,
Tholr excuso Is, In substance, thnt they
ro forced to glvo rebates "to get busl-
nosa." Mr. A, trafllc manager ot the X.,
. & 7.. raliwny, will say In effect:

Falrbury Kntcrprlso (rep.): Tho grand
Jury nt Omaha found an Indictment against
tho Iat) fusion stnto treasurer, John U.
Meserve, for embezzlement of the Interest
on school funds. Anythlug, oil Lord, to
Keep up tno political rottenness in tnis
tate.
Columbus Telegram (dem.): Speaking
crlously, we hopo tho chnrgo against Me
serve will be pushed to a finish. If ho has
been practicing Hartley's tactics In ofuce
e ought to pay tho penalty. However,
having bcen Indicted by such a monstrosity
as n. Douglas county grand Jury, It Is sate
to prophecy that the chargo against him
will dlo young.
Pender Times (rep.): The last net of tho
notorious Judgo Daker of Omaha was to
havo tho grand Jury bring In an Indictment
gainst former Stnto Treasurer Meserve
for appropriating to his own uso tho un
lawful Interest on school funds. Thcro Is
no doubt but It Is a political movo pure
and simple. However, lf Meserve has dono
nny wrong he should suffer for It.
York TInics (rep.): And now Meserve,
tho fusion state treasurer, has been- In
dicted by tho Douglas county grand Jury
for embezzling atato monoy. Tho amount
In this caso Is only $1,500, but tbero nre
many such cases whoro tho aggregato will
bo largo. This may explain how a man
can go Into tho state treasury a bankrupt,
with considerable, obligations hanging over
hlm and, nfter four yenrs ot service, set
tle down In Lincoln with apparently a com
petence, nnd nil on salary of J2.500 a year.
Fremont Herald (dem.): A recent Inspec
tion of tho books ln State Treasurer Stue-
fer's ofllce showed that tho Interest account
was Itomlzed, tho amount nnd namo of each
iloposltory paying Interest bolng given. Tho
books of State Treasurer Meserve did not
contain nn Itemized account. of interest,
but merely contained lump sums. This
mado It very easy for the oily ex-guardlan
of the state funds to cover his tracks and
fool tho fools. It would bo glory enough
moat too much If we could raanago to
elect a few moro Ilk hlm.
Fremont Trlbuno (rep.): Tho Indict
ment of cx-Stato Treasurer J. D. Meserve
by a Douglns county grand Jury for alleged
embczzlomcnt, shows how dangerous It Is
to bo custodian ot stnto funds, since tho
trap sprung aud caught Joo Bartley. This
Indictment Is on the ground that Mcservo
received from tho Union Stock Yards Na
tional bank of South Omaha Interest on
stnto school funds deposited ln that In
stitution nnd that this Interest money was
appropriated to his private uso. As we
undcrstnnd It. Mr. Mcservo did not during
his term of ofllco credit tho state with
any such Interest ln his reports and If it
can bo estnbtlshed that ho waa paid monoy
for that purpose It will ho Incumbent on
him to show what was dono with It.
Lincoln Post (pop.): Tho Indictment ot
cx-Stato .Treasurer Mesorvo by tho Douglas
county grand Jury appears on Its face to
havo been n political move, pure and slm-
nle. It was necessary to do something to
dlstrnct attention from tho Bartley Btcal,
conviction and pardon, nnd ob thero was
a way to mnl-o a prima faclo caso against
Mr. Mesorvo. ho was Indicted. That air.
Mcservo deposited Bchool funds in banks
for safckooplng nobody will seriously deny1,
becauso the state has never mado provision
for tho safety of funds In tho treasury.
Thut thero was a competition for tho pos-
session ot theso funds la nlso without dbubt,
nnd that Mr. Mescrvo took Interest on theso
deposits Is very probnble. Tho question,
however, will bo whether tno tunns uo
poslted In tho Stock Yards Nntlonal bank
at South Omaha were loaned to that bank
or not. If thoy wcro then Mr. Mcservo
was guilty of embezzlement.
rsrnml Inland IndoDendcnt (rep.): Tho
ernnd Jury of Douglas county has returned
nn Indictment ngnlnst tho lato fusion Btato
treasurer charging him with embezzle
ment of tho state school funds. White It
has generally been known that Meserve
farmed out state funds nnd commuted
practices, even worse than Stato Treasurer
Stucfer has recently been chargod with,
h fusion nollcv has been to shut the mat-
tor up, to simply knocK Mr. weservo on
the ticket and cover tno maladministra
tion over In the Interests of "reform."
And tho Indictment Is tho first real ovldonce
that tho goi'cral rumors havo neon correct.
Mr. Meserve, when Informed of tho In
dlntment. stated that ho know of some
chargos, hut oxpressed the opinion that It
was a political movo. This will, unques
tionably, bo tho cry of tho fualonlsts. Tho
ovldcnco secured by tbo grand Jury Indi
cates that Mescrvo had on deposit In tho
Union Stock Ynrds National bank nt South
Omabn n large sum of money bolonglng to
tho school funds upon which he had been
paid Interest and that ho had pocKoteu
