GOVERNMENT OWNERSHIP.
The Nevada Senator's Plan for 0prr-
aIing Railroads,

According 20 a Washinston correspondent
of the ST. Louis Republic Senator Jones ol
Nevada has formulated p!3n for the own
ership of railroads by the government, and
will urge its adoption by congress at the
coming session:
II believe" said the senator. that the
people Of the United States are ready to
insist on tho government assuming control
OF the railroads of the country, | am my
self in favor of it on general principles bat
| do not approve of the plans thus far pre-
scented for bringing il about. Neither do !
regard as wise the proposition to have the
roads operated by the government, as that
would be to place in the hands of a few
men a dangerous political power. The
people should operate the roads. My plan,
which | worked out when the agitation for
government ownership OF the railroads was
first advocated is to have the government
acquire the roads by purchase and fore
closure OF the mortgages and Indebtedness
overdue and throw them Opsn to the public,
as in the case OF toll roads. In the early
days out west wren a toll road was built
through a section -of the mountains, the
transporter of freight or passengers with
his own vohicleg could pass over the road
by the payment Of a certain fee. That
Is the system l propose for freight and pas
senger traffic on Nthe railroads after the
lines are acquired by the government. The
tolls should be- tXed at so low rate as
to produce just enough revenue for the
expenses of keeping the road. tracks, etc,
in perfect order.
The train service then would be en-
tirely in tho hands OF the people. Thus
flrst-class engineer, a conductor, and a
brakeman would be at liberty to run Il
train of their own over any line in the
country under conditions laid down by the
government. All they would have to do
would be to arrange for running time with
the proper authorities.
biities. For instance the farmers OF a
given locality who are now shut out OF
the markets by high freight rates could
hire or buy few cars and an engine and
go themselves with their cattle or grain
to the best market The manufacturer
could do likewise, while the pleasure-seeker
might visit every section OF the continent
with every luxury for what 1t now costs
him to go from New York to San Fran

IL is to be hoped that the directors

secretary of the treasury that the condi-
tiOnS embodied in the act of congress

plcdging the cooperation of the United
States government in the TranSmiSSiS-
Sippi and International exposition have
been complied with. There Is always Il
great deal of rcd tape in the Washing

months for American ministers and

If not absolutely vital 10 the success

The Farmers National congress- In
session at Indianapolis will probably
renew the demand made at the session
Of two years ago. that farm products
shall bc protected equally with manu-
racturcd products. The address of the
president of the congress presented
some highly interesting and instructive
figures showing how importations of
agricultural products have increased
under the preScIt tariff 1t appears
from this that in the first year of the
operation Of the existing law the ugri-
cultural imports in twenty articles, the
like of which we produce north and
south, were more than double in amount
the imports of such products in the last
year of the republican tariff. Formida-
bic figures were given showing what
the farmers of the United States have
lost by the tariff change and the pres
idcnt said: should protection be the
policy Of the government. then ii should
be applied to farm products and the Ag-
ricultural Department should recon-
mend to the general government such
changes in tariff schedules as will
furnish equal protection to the products
of the farm"
This is matter regarding which the
farmers of Il large part of the country
have been thinking seriously for the
past two years. There can he no doubt
that the votes of many of them were
influenced by it in the late election and
1t is to be expected that they will be
heard demanding of the next congress
and administration such consideration
for the farming interest in the revision
of the tariff as they shall deem drsirl-
bic. The fact that they are able to
show that they have sustained ma
tcrial loss under the present tariff will
be an almost Irresistible argument for
Il restoration of the duties under the
former tariff and it is safe To say that
this will not be denied them by the re-
publican congress- While ii is true that
we export agricultural products, it is
not fact that all products of the farm
are escorted, and for such as are not
for such as depend wholly upon the
home markct-a reasonable protection
seems Il legitimate demand.

that there will be no danger OF any dis

Major Mckinley may he depended

satisfactory to the country-a cabinet in
full accord with the principles he rep
rcscnts. No one has Il larger acqunint-

say that he will choose only those of the
highest character and qualifications. 1t

CABINET l,tkIVG

There is excellent authority for the
statement that Major Mckinley will
enter upon his duties as president un-
tlammcled by any pledges as to cabinet
appointments. This can he accepted
unquestioningly, because at no time.
either before his nomination or after.
was there any reason for the president
elect making personal pledges in order
to secure support. His nomination was
demanded by II large majority of the
rank and file of the republican party
and when the will Of the majority had
been thus expressed the leaders were
not slow to acquieScp in it, 1t
was not necessary to offer any
Inducements TO bring them to the sun
port of the ticket. They rallied To it
Promptly ana heartily. OF those who
did able and valuable service in the
cause Of sound money and for re.
publican success. the number is so
great that there are not offices enough
in the gift of the president to reward
them all, if they should desire the re-
ward of office.
Cabinet making is being largely in
dulgcd in by the newspapers and will
continue To be up To the day when the
next president shall announce who are
TO be the members of his administra-
ton. This is not without interest as
an expression Of public preference and
doubtless Major Mckinley himself will
not be wholly Indifferent TO the opinion
OF the republican newspapers of the
country rs 10 who would be most nc
ceptnble TO the party as cabinet Off
cialS. lie may very wisely consider
the suggestions from this source as "A
guide TO the selection of popular mon.
Rut there are only eight cabinet posi-
tions and already several times that
number have been named aS meritiuy
the consideration of the president
elect. 1t is possible that some of these
will be appointed. The difficulty that
confrontS Major Mckinley is in the
excess of excellent cabinet material.
There is hardly n position in the adj
ministration for which Il score of capa-
bic men cannot be found.
The next administration will be dis
tinctively republican,. 1t will be
harmonious on the questions of sound
money and protection. The expectation
Is that all sections of the country will be
represented in it and it is desirable that
they should be. A sound southern re-
publican in the cabinet would benefit
the party in that section, which is no
longer solidly democratic. The north
west should have place in the admin
istration. The east and the middle states
are sure 10 be taken care Of 1t has been
suggested that the appointment of
sound money democrat to a cabinet posi-
tion would be a proper recognition of the
service of that element TO the republican
cause. 1t Is not necessary to do this in
order to attest the fact that Major Me
Kinley and all republicans realize the
value Of the assistance and support of
