Railroad management out in Mis-
souri, seems to be about the same that
1t is In many other States; plenty oil
water Is used in watering the stock to
deceive the public and get people to put
money into them. In that State the
railroads are capitalized 81 $233, 600, 900,
but when the Railroad Com missioners
came along on their annual round OF
inspection to ascertain their true value
and assess them accordingly, they were
Informed that the sum named does not
fairly represent the taxable value OF the
roads. The companies succeeded In In
ducing these good-natured, easy souls
TO assess them at rate for which the
net earnings formed the basis, and
which places the value Of the roads at
$l08, 900, 900, the difference between the
sum at which they were capitalized and
the one at which they were assessed
being 1925, 900, 900 This represents the
amount Of water which was permitted
to leak into the bonds and stocks, and
out of which innocent outsiders were
defrsuded. Nor are the Railroad Com
missloners excusable. They have len,
their aid and their official position to 9
scheme Of deception which is little les,
than the boldest kind Of a fraud, and
by weakly consenting to accept such 8
valuation Of the roads, the State of Mis-
souri, has lent quasi endorsement t
this evident process of swindling on the
part OF railroads. Such matter can
not be lightly overlooked, because IT. IL
by such transactions that the gap be
tween labor and capital Is widaued

taxed its full value. Railroad comps

Der, and now they wish they had not
done 80. That journal took up the
cudgel and retorted by charging certain
of the memb ers with holding seats for
which they were disqualified by law,
and certain others with having levied
blackmail. This resulted in an inves-
tigatlon by the grand jury, and the
finding of indictments against Ave
mem bers for drunkenness and against
three others for levying blsckmail. The
charge of taking the oath OF office by
mem bers who were legally DISC ualifed
was sustained, but the ofenses having
been committed more than o year ago,
prosecutions were debarred by the
statute Of limitations. What makes
this action Of the grand jury particular.

the fact that the statutes Of Missouri
contain section declaring drunken.

THE AMERICAN CONGRESS says tina,
\ compound of grease called oleomarga.
rine, and which is passed and sold in
the market as butter, must pay tax
OF two cents q pound, provided the
House conours in the Senate amend
ment. The law just passed requires
oleomargarine to be put up In boxes,
and requires 1t to pay q revenue tax to
the government of two cents a pound,
and even then it must be sold labeled
''oleomargarine." The penalty for q
violation Of this law Ia $1,000 fine and
imprisonment not more than two years.
AS this action brings the rails for all
such violations before the United States
District Courts, instead of the State
Court, 1t will be a big risk for anybody
to attempt to sell oleomargarine In our
markets as butter.
