PAUL MORTON TALKS.
Favors Legalized Pooling and Denies
Benefits of Government Ownership.

Chicago, Nov. 23.-A strong argument
in favor of legalized pooling was made
before the subcommittee of the indus
trial commission by Paul Morton, sec
Ond vice president of the Santa Fe. He
went into thes ubject at considerable
length and declared that a system of
legalized pooling would come nearer to
attaining stability of rates than any
thing yet proposed. He also stated that
the system would protect small ship
pers in small towns to an extent not
possible under present methods.
He disapprOved government owner
ship or railroads, claiming that it would
bring higher rates and inferior service.
stability on freight rates is just as
essential" he said, "as unf1uctuating
import duties" He expressed the Opin-
ion that ticket scaIpers are the cause
of much dishonesty and ought not to be

souE GENEROUS GIFTS.

Probably the United States will not
give any more land to railroads. 1t
hasn't much more to give, compared
with what it has given, and the projec-
encouragement that some of their pred
ecessors have had, How great that en-
couragement has been is shown by
writer in the United States Investor,
who sets before the people in rather
startling way the cost of the subsidies
which they have given to the great rail-
road systems of the West. This policy
of giving land grants by the national
government to aid in the construction
of railroads began on September 20, 1850,
! In a grant made to the Illinois Central
Railroad company, and ended in the
grant made on March 8, 1871, to the
Southern Pacific Railroad company.
| There was thus an interval of about
twenty-one years, in which the public
lands were donated to petitioning cor
poldtloHS. lie area VI ldHu Illus grant
ed is said to be equal to 244, 261 square
miles; that is, an area practically equal
in extent to the ten northern Of the
thirteen original States of the Union.
AS in square miles the area of France
is 204177 of Germany 11,10S, of Aus
tria- Hungary 201,591, the donations
made by our government to the rail-
roads have more than equalled in ex-
tent, and, as it is intimated, in natural
resources and productivity, either of
these great European countries. The
grant made to the Illinois Central is
about the same as the areas Of Rhode
Island and Connecticut combined The
land given to the Chicago and North
western is nearly the same in extent as
the State of Maryland. The grant given
to the Union Pacific is somewhat lar
ger than the State of South Carolina.
The Southern Pacific has received land
which, if aggregated, would more than
cover the State of Maine. The Texas
and Pacific grant is trifle larger than
the state of Massachusetts. The Atch-
ison, Topeka and Santa FEES gift of land
Is rather smaller in extent than the
State of Pennsylvania, and rather lar
ger than the State of Ohio, while the
grant to the Northern Pacific is larger
in area than the States of New York

The commercial depression from
which several Of the British West In
dian islands are now suffering, and from
which Jamaica has lately revived, has
brought to the front an agitation
against the extravagant salaries paid
to the governors of these colonies A
West Indian governor usually gets
about 1000 a year, which is as much
as the secretary of state for all the
British colonies draws, equal even to
the pay of Lord Salisbury as foreign
minister for Great Britain, and more by
$4,000 than the first lord Of the British
admiralty or the communicative chief of
the British army receive. The extrava-
gance of paying such salaries is more
striking. as none of the present COVER
nors is a man of any special note or at
tajnment Some of the islands which
have to pay these large salaries have
less than 100000 inhabitants, and are so
small that one can walk across one of
them in a day.
