IFrom the Chicago Tribune.1
If a postmaster believes that the in
creased business of his Office justifies a
larger allowance for clerk hire, rent, CT
supplies. it is legitimate for him to call
the attention of his official superiors to
the matter. The postoffice department
has the data regarding the increase in
business. If doubtful as to whether it
is genuine and likely to continue it has
special agents, one of whom 1t can send
to investigate. The entire matter is
one between the postmaster and the
department. No third party, though he
be senator or representative, is called
on to intermeddle.
If congressman had kept out of mat
tiers which do not concern them and
had not acted as lobbyists for post
masters who were in a hurry to get
increases to which they were not al
ways. entitled there would have been no
Bristow report and no congressional
hysteria. When representatives say
that their duty to their constituents re-
quires them to importune bureau chiefs
for extra allowances for postmasters
they say what is not true. 1t is no
more their duty to do it than it is of a
Chicago alderman to get pardons for
constituents who have been given lodg-
ings in the bridewell or who wish to be
bailed out of a police station.
The congressman does not lobby for
the postmaster in order that constitu-
ents may have better postal facilities,
but to induce the postmaster to stick
by him and work for him. The head of
a bureau tells the congressman that as
a favor to him the matter will be at
tended to at once, and thus the bureau

THEY WANT GREEN.
Many Urge HIM to Run for the
Council.

William Green has been visited by
hosts of good people of all parties who
are urging him to consent to be a can
didate for the council from the Third
ward. All they want him to do is to
say that he will serve if elected: his
friends will do the rest. There is revolt
against Wolf and his methods.
He has been so unsatisfactory in the
council that even the Topeka CAPITAL
shows signs of boiling him. OF course,
if Green should run the whisky ele-
ment will support Wolf, as it did in the
primaries. The free running of big
joints in Topeka is largely attributed
to connivance on the part of Mr.. Volt
an active member of the police com
mittee
If Topeka had a council composed
fully of men like Green. she would
have a model set of aldermen.

Minneapolis Tribune: It is not i'm
probable that the extreme assertion of
the power of congress to regulate rail-
roads will be followed by a reaction
towards reason and moderation in the
exercise of it. The tendency is to ex-
ercise a disputed power with extraordi-
nary vigor. Once firmly established,
its possessors begin to consider cir
cumstances and conditions. The legis-
lative power to control commerce has
been settled beyond dispute by an I'M
broken line of supreme court decisions
for a generation. Congress is now as
supreme in this field as the imperial
parliament is in the British islands. In
Great Britain the power of parliament
has been exercised with such a mix
ture Of firmness and reason that the
public may travel for a penny a mile
and the railroads all pay fair but not
excessive dividends This has come
about, it may be said, through a policy
of amalgamation of competing lines
and division of territory among differ
ent systems. That is another form of
carrying out the principle involved in
our poolings and combinations The
point is that everything has been done
under the strictest supervision of par
lament. We have taken the first step
in the same direction by firm estab-
lishment of the supremacy of congress
here. We may expect the other steps
80 follow in good time. For example,
we should not be surprised if this de-
cision made it easier to amend the in
terstate commerce law SO as to legal
lie pooling under control of the inter-
state commerce commission.
