ANTI MONOPOLY.
Complaints have lately been numerous
and urgent that certain corporations con-
trolling in whole or in part the facilities
for the inter State carriage Of persons and
merchandise over the great railroads Of the
country haYe resorted IN their dealings with
the public to divers measures unjust aud
oppressive IN their character. In some ip-
stances the State governments have at
tackled and suppressed these evils, but in
others they have been unable to afford ade-
quate relief because Of their jurisdictional
limitations which are imposed upon them
by the Federal Constitution. The right Of
these railway corporations TO a fair and
profitable return upon their investments
and to reasonable freedom in their regCla-
tions must be recognized but it seems only
Just, so far as its Constitutional authority
will permit, Congress should protect the
pee pie at large in their inter State traffic
against acts of injustice which the State
eoyernme 2ts are powerless to prevent.
On the subject Of the civil service the
message says: The annual report Of the
Civil Service CommisSo which will soon
be committed to Congrtss, will doubtless
afford the means of more definite Judg
ment than am now prepared TO express us
to the merits ct the new system. am
persuaded that its effects have thus ,2r
proved beneficial. Its practical methods
appear to be adequate for the ends pro-
posed and there has been no serious diff.
Guilty in CARRYING them into effect.
Allusion is made TO the need Of fuller
| provision for the event of Presidential
vacancy and the recommendation is renew
ed for a constitutional amendment that
would permit the President to veto separate
items of an appropriation bill. Finally,
\ alluding to the decision OH the civil rights
bill, the message concludes thus; Any
legislation whereby Congress may lawfully
supplement the guarantees which the Con-
stltution affords for the equal enjoyment by
all the citizens of the United States OF every
right, privilege and immunity of citizen
