prosperous years they could afford to make
increased payments. The government has
no claim upon the earnings OF these nom
subsidized lines, and traffic may be diverted
either naturally or with purpose from the
aided TO the non-aided lines, and various
changes In expense accounts may be entered
up against the aided portions that should be
chargeable to the nou-aded portions.
IL Is apparent that the subsidized roads
can not discharge their obligations 10 the
government at maturity.
IL Ia the commissioners opinion that It
would be wise for congress to pass AN act
giving reasonable extension OF the time,
reducing the rate of interest TO or per
cent recurring that the earnings from all
government transportation by the subsidized
companies on all lines operated by them,
whether aided or nou-aided, should be APP
piled to the payment of any interest or prin-
cipal due or TO become due within the fiscal
year in which the services might be rem
dered, prohibiting the payment of any divl
dends by the subsidized companies unless
such company shall have paid all interest on
ITS bonded debt having lien prior TO the
government, and all matured Indebtedness
aud interest then due, and such percentage
of the gross earnings of the subsidized lines
as by careful estimates would realize sums
sufficient to pay the accrulng interest and
raise sinking fund that would meet the
principal Of the debts Mt their maturity.
said companies should also be permitted TO
refund the first mortgage bonds under such

accounts between the railroads and the

There are now millions of dollars of unset
tied bills pigeon-holed in various depart
lnents of the treasury and H. is due to the
railroad companies that all these accounts
be promptly adjusted and that such
sums are legally their due be credited or

litical and legal respects to those from any
other place, is mighty stride, but the only
| fault to be found with it is that it was so
slow in coming. Then the fact that Con
gress can no longer make or unmake laws
exclusively for it; that carpet -baggers can
no longer hold Office or any places of honor
or trust within and for the commonwealth,
are of themselves too great boons to be
estimated in a thought or measured by a
sentence Just as the difference between
Imprisonment and liberty can only be fully
comprehended by the individual who steps
from one to the other, so can the evolution
from vassalage to independence be accu-
rately conceived by those people who have
endured the one and after long and patient
waiting been ushered serenely into the
other.
What is herein said of South Dakota is
true of the others, excepting as to the
number of Representatives, the other three
having but one each.
1t might be mentioned that Idaho will
also vote on the adoption of a hotch potch
of political platitudes, to which the digni-
fled name of constitution has been I'M
justifably applied. There are several
reasons for supposing, even believing that
that territory is long way out of her
reckoning if she imagines that any such
document is or will be approved of by
majority of her people, or in the event that
a majority of those who vote at all should
sustain it, that it will ever be reported
back favorably by either of the congress
- Mo-
guaranteeing the proposed state repub-
lican form of government, as the consti-
tuition of the United States requires
in every instance, it is unreasonable
to suppose that such an instru-
ment as the unskilled batch-workers of
Idaho have prepared would receive.
favorable or any consideration at head
quarters. However much the national
solons may be disposed to keep Mormonism
and the Mormons in the background, they
cannot afford and do not intend to pander
to local and utterly groundless prejudice
which is all that the proscriptive features
of the Idaho charter amount to. No, like
her equally ambitious butmuch more deserv-
ing sisters, Wyoming and Arizona, she will
have to wait for season; though in their
case, population or the lack of it is all that
holds them back, whereas, in the case of our
northern neighbor, that is only one draw
back among others.

NEWSPAPER SECRETS.

About election time, last year. some hard
things were said concerning some Of the
Indianapolis courts, which were accused of
standing between Republican politicians,
te-buyers and other scoundrels and the
penitentiary, but there is one court, the
criminal court of Marion county, which is
right on a certain question, whatever its
position may be as to partisan politics and
corrupt party practices. Some time ago
the Indianapolis Journal published that
there was poker playing in the Indiana
insane asylum. Some of the officers of the
institution professed deep indignation, and
VIII IN the grand jury met, the other dav,
deman led an investigation. Managing Edi-
tor NEW was called before the inquisi-
tors, and asked from whom he
obtained the story he published.
He fatty refused to reveal the
name of his informant and was re
ported to the court for punishment for con-
tempt. The Judge held the matter lnder
advisement for few days and then dis
charged NEW, saying he was not guilty of
contempt and could not be held.
If this is not good law it should be the
law, for if editors and reporters were com
PEELED to tell. even to grand iuries, from
whom they obtain news, the papers would
frequently be dry and unreliable. Men
would not give information to the papers if
they understood the editors would divulge
their names. Those who have any practi-
cal knowledge of the newspaper business
will understand this The individual un-
derstands that he will be protected by the
journalist, and the latter holds it to be a sa-
cred obligation which he is under to stand
between those who give him news
of a certain character and those who
would make trouble for the informant
An aggrieved person, one who has been
injured or slandered by publication, has
his remedy. He can proceed against the
newspaper, which the law makes respon-
sible for the contents of its news columns
as well as its editorial utterances. The
newspaper must protect itself against i'm
position, and be the Judge of the propriety
Of publishing what is brought to it. That
is its affair, and as long as it accepts the
moral and legal responsibility the public
should be content.
1t is better for the law to furnish the
protection as in the case noted above, but
so far as the practical effect is concerned,
the result would be the same il the statute
declared that the newspaper man must tell
from whom he obtained information, or
take the consequences; where his Judgment
was against the exposure, the journalist
would remain silent and "accept the con
sc Iuences," He would be compelled to do
this in order to maintain the confidence !
which must exist between the newspaper
and individual members of the community. |
