RUSSELL SAGE SOUNDS
A NOTE OF WARNING
Such Gigantic Combination of Rail-
roads as the Pacific Deal
Is Deprecated.
ARousEs RESENTMENT OF PEOPLE
win Eventually 1nclte Re~tallatory L.ests.
lation In the States and National
Congress-Too Great q Re-
strlction.

New York, Feb. CA note of warning
has been sounded by Russell Sage re-
garding such colossa, railroad deals as
the reported acquisition of the South
ern Pacific by the Union Pacific. Mr..
Sage, many years a director of the
Union Pacific, said:
1T Is a gigantic combination in
which twelve men get the absolute con-
troll OF more than $4,000 miles of rail-
road and a practical monopoly Of all
lines leading to the Pacific. Such COM
binationss of concentrated capital are
sure to arouse the people. And the pes
pie. once aroused, are more powerful
than this railroad combination or any
other that might be formed. l regard it
as Very dangerous to have such great
combinations. 1t is right and proper
hat the capitalists VINO invest money
in railroads or other great enterprises
should be assured of reasonable and
fair returns. 1t Is right that railroads
Should have an agreement not to cut
rates below a fair proft-making figure.
But this should be done in conventions,
by meeting, by agreement, not in sti-
fling competition.
I'm the end this deal will excite dis
trust, arouse resentment and incite to
retaliatory measures the people, the
state legislatures and eventually the
national congress-. The farmers will
consider themselves injured by rates,
the states will inaugurate legislation
and there will be deep hostility to COM
lined capital"

.LGcretia had a fine apple orchard
she said. Her apples We're the best
grown anywhere around. The orchard
was separated from the road by a
stone wall. and people in passing would
often climb owe the wall and take
some of h fruit. This was q source
OF great distress to Lucretia, who was
one OF the best women that ever lived.
That she should place temptation in
the way of others troubled her greatly.
Finally she decided upon n plan to ease
her conscience. AT intervals along the
top OF the wall she had baskets placed,
filled with choice apples. On each pas
ket was a sign which read: Thou shalt
not steal Then. underneath, was an
other sign reading: Help thyself.'
