in every way qualified to-fill the posi-
ton which his friends seek to give him.

LAWYERS AS LEGISLATORS.

Selling by the forelock remark re-
Gently made by Chauncey Depew that
'this is country governed by lawyers
The ST. Paul Dispatch proceeds to
whip into shape an essay which, in q
word, criticises the people because
they La.s allowed the disciples of
Blackstone to be the governing power
all these years, and asks if lawyers
are bteter fitted to make laws than the
balance of the human kind. The Dis
patch declares that the LAWYERS should
be challenged in their position OF
managers and men in other professions
and avocations should be given a
chance to try their hand at it. The
Dispatch further asks what is there In
the study of law that warrants men in
that profession to be better qualified
to govern7
The study of the law in itself may
not better fit men to assume to be the
governors, but men in that profession
are thrown in contact with all con-
ditions, social and economic and ex-
oerience has been their instructors.
Frequently it is said that too many
lawyers are in our legislatures. Vet
it has been demonstrated that law
yerless legislatures have Teen produc-
tive of some of the most drastic legis-
lation that was ever known and the
measures enacted were given severe
blows once they reached the courts.
On the other hand many measures pass
ed after they had received the closest
scrutiny of the legal fraternity have
been declared unconstitutional.
It might be stated, too, that not few
of these measures are introduced il
the legislature at the request of the
people; they are enacted into laws
because of popular demand and
lawyer Legislators vote to so enac
them for fear of condemnation on the
part of their constituents. To bt
fair, however, it must be admitted
that few of the attorneys battle
with the demagogio cry for this sor
of legislation and refuse to cast theil
votes for it, knowing full we'll tina
courts will not stand for such law.
It might be remarked, incidentally
in passing that all the worlds evils
cannot be corrected bv the enactmen
of laws.

placed in possession Of President
Roosevelt q plan, which he thinks.
will bring an end to the strike in the
the anthracite coal regions. Presi-
dent Roosevelt has in turn submitted
| the suggestions to the attorney gen.
erals department, where it is now
being considered.
The plan is to have the government
exercise the right of eminent domain

! mines and operate them for the pur'
pose of taking out all the hard Goa
required by the government in It'll
various buildings, on the ships of the

governmental purposes.
The right of the government to in
/ tervene in a strike which interferes IL
any way with governmental junction.
was proved, Mr.. Dolphin contends
by President Cleveland's action in th'
Chicago strike in 1898, when he or
dered out the United States troops t.
keep the strikers from interfering
with the transportation of the mails
In the present case intervention o
the kind he advocates, Mr.. Dolphin
says, would also break the bsckbon
of the strike by forcing the operator
to resume work in all the mines.

FREIGHT RATE LEGISLATION.

Newspapers are not inclined to let
pass without comment the remark
made by James J. Hill that the people
could legislate until the barn doors
rotted off and they could not fix
freight rates. The railroad magnate' s
attention is directed to the legislation
enacted in Wisconsin, Iowa and Min
nesota several years ago. 1t was
through legislation that freight rates
were made to come down and it
might be said in passing that iG was
due to legislation that passenger rates
in Wisconsin and other states were
| reduced.
The st. Paul Dispatch calls stten-
tion to the fight that was wsged in
Minnesota years ago and says: .
''Surely the granger cases, as the
suits were called that won in the su-
preme court of the United States
decisions that railway companies were
quasi public corporations and subject
to governmental control and regula-
tion, must have slipped out of his
mind. Had his vice president, Mr..
Clough been with him he might have
reminded him how, as young lawyer
in Rochester, he fought the rate law
of this state to the nations court OF
last resort and won out. 49,.
1.-THE contention Of the companies
was that they were private corpora
tions having the right of all persons
to say what they would ask for their
services and leaving the other party
free to take or let alone az he thought
the price fair or not. The granger cases
settled that contention against the
railways for all time. But the ques.
tion Of reasonableness of rates is 6
judicial question to be determined by
courts and not by legislatures, as the
lsupreme court of our state settled II
the STEVENSON case. When Nebrasks
ATTEMPTED to fix rates the railway
affected resisted on the ground tina
the rates were not reasonable, and {
federal judge held that they were no
because, on the evidence. they would
not permit of earnings that would
yield dividends on the capital stock
so. perhaps, Mr.. Hill was accurate il
his statement, for with no restriction
on increase of capitalization that can
not be easily evaded, stock can b.
swelled to point where any proposed
legislative reduction would put ne
earnings below the dividend line
Under such a method barn door,
would rot off and leave legislation in
: effective -
And the public mind is directed t.
the constitutional amendments to b.
voted upon this fall. If the peopl
vote right the legislature will be EN-
powered TO call on the railroad com
panies to pay four per cent gros
earnings tax instead of three per cen
as at present.

saAsphalt.trustss reduces.prices. -
.. So Westinghouse to have its streets
paved-and paved by the asphalt
trust-at the lowest prices eve rpaid
for such work, as result Of genuine
competition between bidders. The en-
gineers in charge of the work are ex-
acting, but they admit competition.
Last year the trust, which had been
doing Washington work for about 81. rs
per square yard or more, was beaten
by an outside company that offered to
do it for $1.72 per square yard. A few
days ago the trust was again beaten
in bidding on the Brooklyn contracts,
and there was great deal of interest
taken in the Washington awards, be-
cause it was known that the trust was
anxious to get back Its Washington
business. 1t succeeded in doing sc
by cutting the rate to 81. 56 per square
yard. In cities like Philadelphia,
where the monopoly is maintained by
requiring the paving to be done with
asphalt controlled by the trust, there
is, of course, no competition, and
high rates can be maintained. -Phila-
