To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal:
Your editorial in to-day's Journal contains
nuggets of truth to men who take time
to think. The law Of supply and demand is
as memorable as the law of gravitation, and
the truth that all men, have an inalienable
right to work at any honest calling is as
eternal as that all men are created equal.
These laws may be interfered with by arti-
fetal means for awhile, but they cannot be
suspended by any human device, much less
annulled and this suspension is likely to be
revenged when 1t can no longer operate,
as in the temporary interfering with the
law of gravity by damming a stream.
When it breaks loose destruction is sure TO
follow. This artificial interference with the
law of supply and demand in the labor field
must have its limitation, and the breaking
loose of the pent-up forces is likely TO be
disastrous but break it must.
But the Journals estimate of train
trade is taught in it; only the hand is
trained to use tools in wood and metal, and
with the girls In needlework and the like;
but this skill in work is no open door to any
trade. 1 have been Informed that within
few years the son of one of the best known
carpenters in the city was graduated from
the literary department of training
school with unusually high merit figures.
and at the same time from the training
school. The father wanted to put him at
once into his shop. and the wanted to
go, but the carpenter was waited upon by
the walking delegate and Informed by that
functionary that there was no vacancy In
the apprentice department and would not
be for ten months; that his son might file
his application. but he must wait his turn
There was nothing else to do, and the boy,
with nothing to do but be idle, contracted
habits that were likely to dwarf him all
his life.
True, we are to have technical school of
the highest order and the teaching of trades
is to be one, if not its chief purpose; but
what will an educated carpenter or brick
LAYER do with his diploma? Unless he can
show union card he cannot work even on
the government building, or any State or
county or city job, and not even then if he
is a colored man. This condition cannot
exist forever. This artificial obstruction of
an eternal and memorable law must have
its limitations. l.. L. SEE.

THE OCEAN MILEAGE PLEA
1T Is INVOLVED IN ASSESSMENT OF
EXPRESS COMPANIES.
VoIney II. MaIOtt Before Tax Board
for the VandaIia-Pipe Line and
Other Corporations.

The State Tax Commissioners heard the
statement of one railroad representative
yesterday and then proceeded with the
regular programme, which was to hear
from pipeline companies, telephone and tel
egraph companies, express companies, etc.
The single railroad representative heard
from was V. T. Malott, receiver for the
Vandalia Mr.. Malott made an appeal for
a reduction of taxes on the lines he repre-
sents 1t is claimed that the rolling stock
of these lines is not as valuable as it was,
and is not being kept up. The best engine
the company owns is only listed at $500.
The board heard the representatives of
different express companies. Among those
who appeared was Albert Baker. who spoke
for the American Express Company. The
same old questions that have been argued
before the tax board for years were
brought up again. One relates TO the assess
ment of certain funds the express compa-
MES have invested in other lines of business
and another is in regard to ocean mileage:
The express companies want the board TO
take into consideration their ocean mileage
in figuring their assessment, 1t has not
been the custom OF the board to do this
because the State would lose by this sys-
tenn. The American Express Company al
ready has a suit pending against the State
in the United States Supreme Court to en-
join the auditors of the State from collect
ing the assessment fixed by the board. Last
year however, the company paid the
amount, with the understanding that II the
court decides in favor of the company the
money will be refunded.
Among the pipe lines represented was the
Consumers Gas Trust Company, of Indian
apolis. Bement Lyman addressed the board
in the interests of this company. The rep
resentatives of all of the gas companies
pointed to the fact that gas is rapidly Civ
ing out, and that each year the business
becomes less profitable Among the other
gas companies represented Were the Rich
mond Natural Gas Company. the Citizens
Natural Gas Company, of Shirley; the Ohio
and Indiana Consolidated Natural and IL
Eliminating Gas Company, the Logansport
and Wabash Valley Gas Company, the La
fayette Gas Company the Indiana Natural
and Illuminating Gas Company, and the
Citizens Natural Gas and Oil and Water
Company.
Among other concerns represented before
the board were the Central Contract and
Finance Company, the United States Ex-
press Company, the Pacific Express Com
pany the National Express Company, the
Richmond Home Telephone Company, the
Mutual Telephone Company, the Delaware
and Madison County Telephone Company
the American Telephone and Telegraph
Company the Rochester Telephone Com
pany. the Central Energy Telephone Com
pany and the Jasper County Telephone
Company.

1t Is stated that George w. Stevens. presi-
dent of the Chesapeake & Ohio. has recently
made several inspections of the Cincinnati,
Muncie & Chicago Railroad. and this has
led TO rumors that an important deal is on
by which the new road, when completed,
will be utilized by the C. & o. for entrance
into Chicago, much shorter route from
Cincinnati than other roads, and will make
this new road rank among the great trunk
lines of the country. The road through
Ohio and Indiana is one of the most sub
stantially constructed in the country, and
when completed will be in condition to run
heavy trains over it at high speed. That
1t will prove a valuable outlet for the
Chesapeake & Ohio is without question, as
1t will open up seaboard points for the
Chesapeake Ohio, and also give it pres
tige as passenger line to Washington. A
railroad man. in commenting on this state
ment, said yesterday that if ii was carried
out IL would make the new road and the
