A co1orado-utah Association.

When the representatives of the
western lines met in Chicago a few
weeks ago for the adjudication of pas
senger matters in trans-Missouri ter
ritory, great stress was laid upon the
fact that the Colorado-Utah lines
would come within the fold constitu-
tionally and it was pretty generally
conceded that it would be clear sail
ing from that date on.
The Herald, however, did not so con-
strue it at the time, and its reasons
then advanced against such belief have
been borne out, il recent dispatches
may be deemed reliable.
On next Monday there is to be- a
meeting Of the representatives of the
Colorado Utah lines in Denver for the
purpose of forming a purely local pas
senger association for such lines. This
marks a step in the right direction
one that will do much or all towards
a solution of the long pending diff
culties wrought through sale and man
ipulation of river tickets. In this con-
nectfon it may be stated that The
Herald was first in the field, long
months ago, to suggest in detail the
ACCESSIBILITY of the Colorado-Utah lines
holding out for just such a policy as
has been brought ABOUT. IL was TiSnt
and has prevailed. True, the Chicago
lines fought the issue, but in the end
were forced to give in. The suprem-
acy of the CoIorado-Utah lines has
been established, and naught can now
rob them of it, though in this hour it
will be well for them to remember that
what has been honestly gained is jeop-
ardized to a great extent in the event
that there is formed q Colorado pas
senger association.
1t is asserted in certain circles that
after the CoIorado-Utah association is
solidly formed, and its chairman elect
ed, then the Colorado local lines vii
form another, letting in those trans
Missouri lines to a voice in the pro-
ceedings, which do business within the
state If this is done, then there are
breakers ahead that will 4ndanger the
life of both associations in very earn
est, as it stands to reason that the
tail end of the big roads viii be wag-
ged by the head-a governing head
that has interests other than trans
Missouri.
In short. the greatest good can be
derived from forming only a Colorado
Utah passenger association. and keep
ing it clear from any such entangle-
ments or snares- as is outlined in the
foregoing.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 27.-The com

gave a hearing in the petition of the
national board of trade for legislation
requiring the interstate commission to
publish a uniform classification of
freight rates, e, P. Wilson of Gin

Chicago, represented the railroads. The
advocates Of the change suggested rep
resented that there We're now four diff
in the country, all so different from
one another in essential respects as
to cause much confusion to shippers.
They asked for unified system ap-
plying to all sections Of the country
and claimed that the necessity for this
change was universally recognized by
the people at large and also by almost
all the railroads. The interstate com
merce commission was also quoted as
favorably disposed to the innovation.
Mr.. Gill said that if the petition should
be granted it would require important
changes on the part Of the roads, and
that the adoption of the plan proposed
would result in either an increase of
eastern rates or a diminution of west

A Plea for Sunday Observance.

To THE EDITOR OF THE JOURNAL: 1t is
scarcely to be supposed that the people he
were driving about the city, and racing and
yelling on Northport avenue, one Sunday
lately, nor the crowds who watched from
the sidewalk, We're doing this for the glory
of God or had any thought at all of Him ?
1t was simply selfish qualification, excepting
possibly one or two who sacrificed them
selves for their friends.

pose, if at the same time breaking His COM

disturbed by their acts? Where were the
policemen? Were the ''city fathers" fearful
Of exercising authority over the few in be-

In none OF his papers upon "This Coun-
try of Ours" has ex-President Harrison
deli vered himself with such vehemence
and emphasis as he has in the March La
dies Home journal on 1.-The President S
Duties" Besides commencing one of
Mr.. Cleveland S acts, and consuming Am
bassadors for making political speeches,
he talks of Presidential appointments in
a most feeling and an almost pathetic
way. Upon the latter theme, in giving
endorsement to Civil Service Reform, he
says: ''In spite of all the difficulties that
beset the question of removals and APP
pointments it must be conceded that much
progress in the direction of a bettelment
of the service has been made. The Civil
| Service Rules have removed large num-
| Der of minor tfces in the departments at
Washington, and in the postal and other
services, from the scramble of politics,
and have given the President, the Cabinet
officers and the Members of Congress
great relief; but it still remains true that
in the power of appointment to office the
| President finds the most eXacting, unre-
lenting and distracting of his duties. In
the nature of things he begins to make
enemies from the start, and has no way
of escape-it is fate; and to a sensitive
man involves much distress of mind His
only support is in the good opinion of
those who chiefly care that the public
business shall be well done, and are not
disturbed by the consideration whether
this man or that man is doing it; but he
hears very little directly from this class.
No President can conduct successful ad-
ministration without the support of Con
gress, and this matter of appointments,
do what he will, often weakens that sup
port. 1t is for him always sort of COM
promise between his ideal and the best
attainable thing
