transcOntinental link while the Midland
would be 50 managed as to be distinc-
lively a local road, and its energies
would be directed in developing local

Receiver Ristine, of the Midland, in
discussing the article regarding the
consolidation of the Midland and Den

IL stIuCA me as very amusing, par
ticIaa1ly that portion which contegn-
plated that the fixed charges OF the
Co5cgedo Midland should be guaran-
teed by the Denver & Rio Grande. 1.
seems to me all the railroads in Colo
ra1o have had enough TO do IN meet
ing their own fixed charges without
making or accepting a guarantee OF
another similarly situated. There is
very little indeed to be said about this
from the simple fact that the earnings
as published speak for themselves, be-
cause no inveLLCnerG has me1$agit,h so
nluon shTinkage as the railroads. I am
rather inclined to think that the CO..

so-called guarantees. The advantages
tEal wCulu accrue from such a cOm'bi-
Ration would not be beneficial 70 the
organization comgnftEee, but the court:
but I am satisfied that the owners of
the Colorado Midland would want
something more than a guarantee.
They have been the victims of a. guar
antee for a great many years. The
idea Of SUCH thing is ludicrous as
Well as prepOsterous, Notwithstanding
Efforts may have been made in that
oTecErion.
The Colorado Midland road has
demonstrated itself too strongly as a
colorado railway TO be merged into
and made a side track of a conperftfve
line. In my opinion the Midland will
continue to be maintained as an indie
pendent property as during she re-
ownership. 1 believe the best interests
or the Colorado Midland demand that
1t small remain independent and it is
certainly 10 the best interest of the
9ecCfle of Colorado that the two lines
be kept under separate management"

1t is difficult to understand why In in
terpreting laws the courts should not give
some heed to the circumstances under
which they were passed, especially ii
those circumstances conolusiyely show
the intention OF the legislature At the
hearing In the case of the Trans- Missouri
Traffic Association 1T was shown by the
Journals of Congress that the antitrust
law in precisely Its present form was re-
ported BY the judiciary committee of the
Senate passed that body and was under
consideration in the House. Mr.. Bland
offered an amendment, which the House
accepted, making railways subject to the
bill. rne Senate accepted the amend
ment, with certain changes. 1.-THE House
refused to concur in the changes. A OOH
ferencs committee recon mended their
adoption, their. report stating that the
onlysobject of the original bill was the
control Of tru SITS, and that the amend
ment extended the scope of the act 30 as
to include transportation. The House
accepted the report of the conference
committee and adhered to the original
language of the Bland amend ment. A
second conference committee reported in
favor of dropping the entire question In
controversy; thereupon both Houses
passed the bill as first drawn. This his.
tory shows that Congress deliberately
and understsndinRly abandoned the i'd ea
of bringing the subject of transportation
under the control of the act. Yet in iti
recent opinion the majority of the cour,
ignored those facts, and brought rail
roads within the intent of the law. This
would seem more like judicial legisla
ton. than an effort to construe the Law
in conformity with the intention of thu
Congress that made it.

THE SUPREME COURTS RAILROAD
DECISION.

Mr.. Aldaoe +. Walker of Vermont,
Inter State Commerce Commission, and
has since been president of several rail :
road traffic associations, takes very
gloomy view of the effect of the recent
decision of the Supreme Court declaring
traffic agreements between railroads nm.
Says MIR. Walker:
Sat time when the air was full OF
courage, WHOM bueiness was increasing
and values were advancing, returning

1t is, altogether probable however that
the effect of this decision in that direc

never been very efficient means of pre-

direction. Mr.. Walker himself has seer
