The Remarkably Queer Sight Seen in a
Prohibition State.
I never would have believed stories told
about crow justice had 1 not attended their
court" says Ewing Herbert in the Kansas
City Star. One beautiful day In December
was riding on the public road two miles north
of Hamlin, Kan. had noticed great t1ocks Of
crows flying about me- and when nearing a
cottonwood grove, in making turn to the
right. saw hundreds of them perched IN the
trees in solid lines to the end of the rows.

From a tree at the head of row, where ten
crows sat, there came such loud and rapid

throats. and every now and then all the flock
Joined in making the noise, and the chorus thus
furnished was all that could have been asked
if noise was desired After two or three min

which was broken by single crow, who made

quickly by others.
Things became more disnlfied, and my inter-

The jury was seeking its verdict in public opin-

way determinations was a ,conhscatory at
tack on vested interests. 1t does not ad-
vance single idea not thoroughly venti-
lated before the passage of the interstate
commerce law. Its theory of the wealth
created by the railways ignores the fact that
without the labor OF the people in produc-
tion the railways themselves would be
worthless. 1t 6iscards as puerlle
the charges established by judi
ciaI and legislative investigation, and
exemplifed by the colossal fortunes created
by those abuses. Its assertion that the great
majority of the railroads are entirely the
creations of private enterprise is remark
able avoidance of the great fact that there is
not single line of any importance that
could have been built without the e1ertlon
in its favor of the sovereign power of emil
nent domain, which charged it with all the
obligations and duties of public highway.
But it is in his remarks on the effect of
competition that Mr.. Dillon most markedly
displays the inslncerity of his argument.
He points to the work of competition in the
past and holds it up for the future as COM
plete protection for the public against un-
just charges. But he keeps entirely out of
sight the fact that by the very organization
of the railway system competition never
is permitted, and painfully ignores
the further pertin ent reflection that
the corporate policy he and his
associates especially represent is the COM
plete suppression of any competition what
ever between the transcontinental lines
THE DISPATCH has often declared the at
tempts of the Western Legislatures to tie
railway rates down by legislative enact
ments as foolish and mistaken; but the fact
is that they are the logical conclusion of the
Gould policy. 1t is recognized maxim
that where competition is abolished there
must be legislative regulation of the mo-
nopolized charges The stock market has
been convulsed, the money market thrown
into panic, and legitimate stockholders
plundered, in order that Mr.. Gould, Mr..
Dillon and their associates might get con-
troll of the transcontinental lines and abol-
ish competition between them. 1t would be
interesting to have Mr.. Dillon explain what
other protection the people have when that
corporate policy is triumphant; but he en-
tirely omits to do so.
The return of the corporate advocates to
the theories of ten years ago makes it neces-
sary to repeat the assertion that when the
managers abjure the errors and abuses that
exist in the system and give competition
free and unhampered operation in fixing
their charges, they will be able to present
the most convincing arguments against radi-
cal and restrictive legislation in the West
ern States.
