THAT RAILWAY DECISION.

The supreme court decision holding
that the Sherman antitrust law covers
traffic and like associations is all the
talk, not only among railway officials
and attorneys, but among elevator men,
directors of shipping bureaus and the
like. The decision is sweeping and
seems final As 10 the immediate effects,
opinions are numerous and conflicting.
At the bottom of all determinations
were these traffic trusts. The vote of
one road was sufficient to annul the
agreement of all within the combine.
A specific article of traffic of one road
was at the mercy of the dictation of
another which might not even touch
with its lines the territory affected.
Since the publication of the decision
the railroads are Withdrawing from the
associations everywhere. Mr.. henna,
general solicitor of the Atchison, To
peka and Santa Fe Railroad company,
is quoted as saying that, as result of
the supreme court decision on railroad
combinations, Kansas may have all
sorts of freight rates within the next
sixty days. 1t is probable that a good
many of the Determinations against
communities will be wiped out, but
there is no reason why the rates should
be demoralized, if traffic mana gers and
freight agents exercise the common
sense which is displayed by men in
mercantile or manufacturing lines. Sta
bic rates are just as important to ship
pers and merchants as equitable rates,
for the reason. that varying rates from
day 10 day unsettle business and make
the profits of handling goods uncertain.
There is just one thing for railroad
managers 10 do, and that is To follow
on business principles, just as mer-
chants and manufacturers do. If rail
road pools and combinations had not
resulted in determinations. and in the
maintenance of rates entirely out of
proportion to the values of commodities
hauled, there would never have arisen
such objection 10 them as to place them
outside the pale Of law, because the
merchant is just as anxious TO see uni
form rates maintained as the railroads
are. But railroad managers have ignored
the rights of shippers in their efforts
to control traffic wholly for their own
Interests, and that policy, chiefly, has
brought upon them their present trou-

NJ. NJ. MURDOCH, Editor.
AN OPEN STEAL.

Speaking of Pop reform, the Atchison
Globe, which, politically, is anything
but a Republican paper, takes up and
editoriaIly reviews the effort of the Pop
legislature to cut down the enormous
fees and steals in the state printing
law. The effort failed first through a
theft of the bill by some friend of the
new Pop state printer and was finally
lost through sculduggery so open as to
be shameful. The Globe calls attention
to the fact that Morrill, protested
against the outrageous prices paid for
state printing, recommending leSisla-
tion on the subject. The deficiency on
state printing, under the last year of
Morrilrs administration, was $4,000.
The first effort of the Pop legislature
to stop this leak of thousands annually
was the introduction OF a bill in the
senate making a horizontal cut of ten
per cent on all the fees allowed the
state printer. This cut was so ridicu-
lousy inadequate that when the bill
reached the house the cut was amended
and made - per cent Under present
prices. that was not near enough of seal
ing down. But when the bill went back
to the pop committee Of the senate it
was pigeon holed, being finally dropped
from the calendar and lost sight of till
about the close of the session, when
somebody called for it and had 1t re-
ferred TO a conference committee. That
was the last Of it. The conference COM
mittee not agreeing, both the 10 per
cent and the % per cent cuts were
swamped, and the old law with its war
time prices was left TO stand, whereby
the Pop state printer will be enabled,
he and his friends who manipulated the
matter in the legislature, 10 pocket some
fifty thousand clear profits annually.
The Republicans should have overhaul
sd the state printer law years ago. They
would have succeeded in doing so four
years ago but for the DunsmOre Pop
contingent in the house. Prices of pa
per and material were from two 10 four
inally passed as now, and composition
cost four or five times as much as at
present" The Pop legislature knew that.
The excuse for not amending the law
and cutting off a steal of $4,000 or
100000 was in effect that the Republi-
cans had had a good thing and they
therefore did not propose to deny their
own side the same kind of a chance,
ignoring the fact that the greatest
shrinkage in prices has occurred since
the Pops first elected their man Snow
for state printer.
There is nothing TO Pop reform, and
TO bring it down TO a still finer point,
there is no such thing as nothing; it is
an impossibility, and so is Pop reform.

that further deficiency Of $4,000. 600

that a further deficiency Of $4,000, 600
is estimated for the next fiscal year,
and that it is possible to figure only a
working balance in the treasury. next
July, above $150,000,OO0 in gold, which
should remain in the reserve. Having
thus demonstrated the immediate need
of more revenue, Mr.. Dingley tersely
states the Republican position that in
revising the tariff duties should be 50
adjusted as to better protect the many
industries which have so seriously suf-
cred the past three years from unequal
foreign competition, and from the con-
sequent loss of purchasing power Of
the masses of the people, upon which
the demand for products and the pros
perity of every citizen depend"
The assertion that will be most fire.
quently made by the free traders will
be the same old cry that the tariff is a
tax. that it will in increasing the cost
of production raise the price to the con-
sumner. Admitting that tariff is a tax,
the experience of the past four years
has quite thoroughly shown the faliacy
of this antique argument. The country
has learned that the interests of produc-
er and consumer are mutually interde-
pendent, and that, as Mr.. Dingley puts
it, the prosperity of every citizen de-
ponds upon the purchasing power Of
the masses of the people.

THE TARIFF DEBATE

A tariff debate is on again. Despite
the verdict of last November. and all
the rainstaking of the committee to the
end that the measure might become the
law in the shortest possible time. the in
dications are for an interminable de
bate. II is all wearisome and without
reason. The opposition had announced
that while they did not believe in pro-
tectiye tariff, vet the American people
having declared for one. they would
do nothing 10 hinder its speedy passage.
There being nothing new or strange or
unexpected in the bin presented by the
Dingley committee, there would seem
no excuse for the fusilade OF speeches
pro and con being delivered. The ahso-
lutte necessity for more revenue was
conceded by everybody. Dingley's de-
tailed analysis OF the measure is a
model of condensation and yet of sim
plicity. Everything is clearly outlined.

JAPAN NOT GREECE.

Japan is as big country as England.
AS a power it only lacks the prestige,
it may be, of the British Isles, which
have become an empire that spreads the
world around. Foreigners residing in
Japan state that the Japanese govern
ment is encouraging a project formed
by certain Japanese adventures who
intend to send an expedition TO COrea,
dethrone the king of that country and
place in his seat a Corean prince who
is now held in friendly captivity in ia
pan. The success of the plot said to be
brewing in Japan would put the Japan
csc partisans again in power in Corea.
Therefore the overturning of the Co.
rean government by revolutionary
expedition from Japan would be such a
blow at Russian interests and Russian
prestige as could hardly be tolerated by
the st. Petersburg authorities.
If this news is reliable, the great pow
ers of Europe, now busy with the regu-
lation of Cretan and Greek affairs, are
likely 10 be rudely reminded before
long, that the world is not so much a
mere plaything of Europe, in many re-
spects. as it was fifty years ago, or even
half that period. If Russia should sud-
denly be compelled to choose between
war with Japan and such loss of pres
tige that the island empire would
thenceforth be the dominant power of
Eastern Asia, it might make a COM
plete change in the attitude of the
cars government toward the eastern
question. Not even Russia would want
to risk war with Japan and serious
complications in the Levant At the same
time. Perhaps the japanese ministry
feels that with Greece making so much
trouble for the powers which assume
the right to dictate to all Europe, the
time is favorable for reasserting the
position in Corean affairs TO which
Japan is entitled by trade and geo.
graphical considerations. At the end
of the war with China Russia inter-
fered to rob Japan of part of the nat
ural rewards of victory, and ever since
then the Japanese have been eager TO
humiliate and weaken their big and IN
scrupulous neighbor.
AT all events, it shows the movement
of the world in most interesting way
TO find Japan formidable element that
must be reckoned with when the great
powers of Europe are deciding the fate
of weaker nations.
