Mr. Kendrick or the president inter-
posed any objections. 1t is not true that
Mr.. Kendrick especially favored, or the
president specially opposed. the change
because both felt that it was a matter
entirely within the province of the gen.

should not interfere. There is nothing
in the whole matter which in the least
reflects upon the character or ability

MOVE PARSONS YARDS.
Katy Has Found It Dangerous to Do
Switching in CITY.

Parsons, Kan, July 16.-Ever since
the M. K. & T. was built. the switch
yards have been near the center of this
city. Several deaths and accidents
have occurred in consequence of the al
most continual moving of trains back
and forth over street crossings. The
road has now decided to move its yards
beyond the north limits of the city and
will purchase land for that purpose as
soon as the required acreage can be
determined. The survey was begun to-
day, and it is estimated that nearly 100
acres will be required.

a DlSGRACEFUL ADMISSION.

Senator Mcmillan. of Michigan, is
quoted by the Washington correspon-
dent of the Los Angeles Times as say
ing: I'VE all know that railroads dc
not want opposition. The fact is, they
are all getting together now. sup
pose the time will come when the gov
ernment will have to own all these
railroads. Then we can handle them
Just as we please"
Senator Mcmillan is a Republican of
the conservative type and is at the head
of large banking and business enter
prises. Probably he agrees with most
thoughtful and conservative men that
government ownership of the railroads
would be a calamity. Unless our
statesmen display more wisdom, how
ever, 1t almost seems as If 1t can not be
escaped. II our State and Territorial
legislatures and Congress can not. or
will not. frame laws which will protect
public interests and at the same time
respect the rights of the railroads, gov
ernment ownership may ultimately
prove to be necessity-a
desperate remedy for desperate
disease. The railroads, under govern
mental ownership. would be q part of
the political machinery of the party in
power. The result would be demor-
alizing from every point of view
Americans have always boasted of
their resourcefulness, of their ability
to meet every emergency. Yet there
must be limitations upon that bright
intelligence which has been the ad-
miration of the world when our public
men confess almost daily that the rail-
road problem has reached a stage at
which no solution short OF calamity
can be found. II there are minds big
enough and strong enough to plan
colossal combinations, why should
there not be minds capable of devising
measures to hold these combinations
in check? Is 1t possible that the best
intellects are in the service OF the rail
roads, that the corporations control
not only the transportation facilities
OF the country, but its brains as we'll?

ity and capacity in the public service
able to cope with the shrewd and re-
sourceful men who look after the In
terests OF the corporations?
Senator McMillan's statement that
he "supposes that the time will come
when the government will have to own
all the railroads" seems to be hu-
initiating reflection upon the public
men of the United States. They fear
the evil day must come, they have had
due warning, and yet they confess they
are at their wits end and regard the
impending calamity as unavoidable.
That is mortifying confession. Per-
haps IL our statesmen showed as much
zeal and energy and thoughtfulness in
promoting the public welfare as the
corporations exhibit in advancing their
interests, the problem could be solved.
But the corporations demand and OBJ
tain the best services that can be had,
while the public Is satisfied with al
most any sort OF service that it can
get. Possibly that is the reason why
the corporations usually win, and why
the public generally loses

the 400, 100000 acres of grazing land
occupied by industrious farmers, there
would be no scarcity of meat in the

Fifty years ago the grazing lands of

cattle raiser of long experince Is quoted
as saying that every year 100000
acres of meadow disappear, and 5,000,-
900 acres of desert take their place"
II this continues, it will not be many

system is enacted, it should be some
thing on the line of the Lacey bill, by
which actual agricultural settlers can
lease 1000 to 5000 acres for a limited
time for grazing purposes. Congress

make 1t more difficult for the govern

cattle barons-~the suspected allies of
the meat monopoly.
