1t is stated in railroad circles
that an effort will be made at the
present session of the General
Assembly to have the Legislature
extend the lease Of the Western &
Atlantic railroad to the Nashville,
Chattanooga & St. Louis for a
long period of years beyond the
termination of the present lease,
which expires in 1919. 1t is
thought the Louisville & Nash
vile railroad, which controls the
Nashville, Chattanooga & ST.
Louis, is back of this movement,
as it is now seeking an entrance
to Atlanta and a connection with
the Georgia railroad, which il
leases. 1t may be that the effort
will go so far as to effect q pur-
chase of the state road, though
this is hardly probable. 1t is
SAID that the recent action of rep
resentatives of the louisville &
Nashville in securing options Oh
property valued at more than
$500, 900 just beyond West End is
part of this scheme. The price
now paid the state for the lease OF
the Western & Atlantic road is
$420,O12 per annum.

WA|ALUA
ONE AHEAD
Judge Robinson Renders
Decision Against
o. R. & l. Co.

Judge Robinson, in deciding phase
of the Oahu Railway & Land Co.
suit against the waialua Agricultural
Co. to recover $4,000 for coal sold and
delivered, said that although there APP
peared to be no written contract, the
plaintiff in it's complaint ingeniously
presented five separate and distinct
counts or causes of action. Summons
was served on October rs, 1903. On
Nov. defendant filed it's onswer and
Nov. defendant filed its answer and
counter claim. In this document the
liability for the coal was admitted, but
counter claim for $14, 44202 for rent
of grazing lands was set up, with in
terest added making $16,670.77. The
defendant asked judgment for the diff
erence between the accounts, $12,S70.77,
together with attorneys fees and costs.
1t would appear that the demurrer
objected to the plea Of set-off, but
Judge Robinson, having quoted Ha-
waiian with other authorities, says the
Supreme Court Of this Territory in the
case of Erickson VS.. Volcano S. q T.
Co., after quoting the provision in re-
gard to set-off in the statutes, "held
that the very idea of set-off is that
it is a debt growing out Of separate
transaction from that sued upon" In
conclusion he says:
But If the matter improperly plead
ed by way of set-off or counter claim
could be allowed by way of recoup-
ment, the mere fact that the pleader
has miscalled his claim in his pleading
does not affect his right; and whether
the party calls it by the right name is
not material. 1t is the facts alleged
which constitute the defense. Springer
VS.. Dwyer, so N. Y. 20.
I'm my judgment the matters and
things set out in the defendants So
called amended answer ana counter
claim, although improperly pleaded by
way of set-off, should be allowed by
way Of recoupment.
ut is ordered that plaintiffs demur-
rer to the defendants so-called amend
ed answer and counter claim be and
the same is hereby overruled."

WHY BUTLER DAMNS FOLK.

No wonder Ed" Butler the great
ST. Louis boodler, remarked Damn.
Joe Folk" Folk convicted seven But
Ter Indians" The law let them go.
Folk found two vast sums of Doodle
money in two leading financial insti-
tutions. He tied 'em up" by order of
court. They are there yet. Boodlers
scuttled to Mexico. Others. including
Ellis Wainwright, the millionaire
brewer. fled to France. One informer
came back. Thirty-one indictments
were found. Folk conferred with the
president, another boodle-fighter, and
got an extradition treaty with Next
co. Kratz was brought back Ed But
Ter and r. M. Snyder, both million
aires. were convicted. The supreme
court had to set them free.
Wainwright, another millionaire,
remains in exile. He is waiting until
Folk is retired from office or dies. One
Millionaire broker and railway bond
holder escaped on the statute of linn
itations. Seven other boodlers are al
ready in the penitentiary-the first
bribery convicts in the history of the
state. In all, nineteen were convicted
in the lower court. But the law is de-
ficient. Folk said he would appeal to
the people for laws that would hold
boodlers That has been his fight in
this campaign. Ed Butler damned
Joe Folk, but the people have elected
him by a good majority.

clean, able man, he was damned from
the start by the Wall street gang that
secured his nomination and sought his
election. The people were not to be
tricked into turning this government
over to agents of the Standard Oil
trust the sugar trust and other IL
legal combinations in restraint of
trade. 1t was commonly believed that
Belmont, McCarren and Meyer repre-
scented such interests and their close
connection with Judge Parker's cam
paign was a handicap that no candi-
date could have overcome The un-
erring judgment of the American peo-
pie sized up the situation correctly
and decided that Teodore Roosevelt
with all of his alleged imperfections
was preferable to any candidate coach
ed by the leaders of the ''reorganizers."
In this state fully half the democrats
voted for Roosevelt in preference to
Parker For governor Judge Turner
ran nearly $4,000 votes ahead of Park
re. The percentage of republican votes
that Turner received was probably
larger than that received by Johnson,
the successful democratic candidate
for governor in Minnesota, but the to-
tai vote in this state is so much small
er than that of the Pine Tree state
that Turner's gain was not sufficient
to overcome the phenomenal tidal
wave for Roosevelt that swept Mead
along with it to victory
However, there is ground for hope
in the large independent vote of this
state That vote is not confined to the
ranks of one party. While thousands
of republicans voted for Turner, an
equal number of democrats voted for
Roosevelt. This independent spirit will
grow as the years pass and the popu
lation of the state increases, and poll
ticians who count upon heavy re-
publican majority to support and in
dorse anything and everything the
party bosses may offer will often be
as badly fooled as Jim Hill was in Min
nesota last Tuesday by the defeat of
his man Dunn for governor by Swede
editor of democratic persuasion.
The American people can always be
trusted to do the right thing when they
are made to see it. They may seem
slow in arriving at correct conclusions,
but so far it must be admitted that
they have made few mistakes.
The Evening statesman. [volume] (Walla Walla, Wash.) 1903-1910, 1904-11-15

competition arising from the con-
struction Of numerous interurban
and cross country trolley lines, in
nearly every state in the country. In
competition for short distance pas
senger traffic the trolley lines have
done well, and where they have made
the hauling of freight a secondary
part of their business, they have done
equally well-within their obvious linn
itations.
Advantages have been all on the
side of the trolley lines and against
the steam roads in competition for
this business, which, while apparently
small and formerly thought unimport-
ant, has shown an enormous aepre-
gate and tendency to increase.
In consequence there has recently
been witnessed a more general look
ing into the merits of the trolley lines
as revenue producers and a. DISPOSE
ton on the part of the steam roads to
buy or control them.
Against the advantages accruing to
the electric lines from cheapness of
operation and other causes. there has
been the difficulty of raising the
speed for in the present era of ex-
tending lines, thirty-five and even
fifty miles through the country, it has
been found that both passengers and
shippers chafe at the longer time ne
cessitated, nor can the electric lines
overcome this, for even where it is
possible to raise the speed there is
this great handicap, that the cleo
trio roads do not possess private
rights -ofway but run upon the city
streets and along the public high
ways. Unlike the steam railways
they are limited by the greater danger
to public safety, additional to the
time lost through more frequent stops.
1t is this that makes the New York
CeHtrai purchase or double import
ance, for the Auburn road will be
the first electric line operated for a
considerable distance over a first-class
roadbed, on an entirely private right
of way. and here will be opportunity
for demonstration of the advantages
of operating electric trains over the
rails OF steam roads for short runs
in the more thickly settled portions
of territory traversed
II 1t proves successful in this in
| stance, other roads may take it up:
hence the experiment will be watched
with interest in the railroad world.

ELECTRIC TRANSPORTATION.

One of the most interesting phases
of the constant change and internal
development in the world of transpor-
tation and railroad operation, is
found in the growing tendency to ev-
pertinent with electricity as a motive
power substitute for small unit hauls
on roads where only steam power has
been in use. That electricity can be
used to advantage for short hauls
has been demonstrated and so OBJ
vious are the opportunities for in
creasing traffic at less than ordinary
ratio of increase in expense Of opera
ton, where there is sufficient density
of population, that several eastern
roads are reported to have the matter
of the installation of small unit.
short electric trains under care
full consideration.
Meanwhile, the October street rail-
way supplement of the Commercial
and financial Chronicle contains the
announcement of the purchase by the
New York Central of the controlling
interest in the Syracuse Rapid Transit
| and Utica & Mohawk Valley line. The
old Auburn road was the original
steam road between Syracuse and
Rochester. This line the new manage
| ment proposes to equip electrically
| Many points for consideration pre-
sent themselves in this connection. but

SHOULD BE GUM SHOE BILL.

The Missouri legislature will be re-
publican on joint ballot and Senator
Cockrell will be retired. Cockrell is
one of the best and ablest men in the
senate and his retirement is a loss to
the nation. President Roosevelt is re-
ported to have said a few days ago
that he would gladly have conceded
Missouri to Parker if Senator Cockrell
could be retained in the senate 1t is
too bad that it is not Senator Gum
Shoe Bill Stone who is to retire in
stead of Cockrell. Stone was suspic-
iously close to the Doodle gang that
corrupted the Missouri legislature and
many people believe that he had a
hand in bleeding the baking powder
trust and other concerns by hold-up
legislation. Missouri had a strong
team in Vest and Cockrell. Stone is a
sorry substitute for Vest, and the re-
publicans will have no easy task in
finding the equal of Cockrell.

WALLA WALLA'S GREATEST NEED

Walla Wallas greatest need now is
for places of innocent amusement. A
Young Mems Christian Association
building would supply this need to a
large class by providing gymnasium,
literature, music, lectures and other
means of instruction improvement and
entertainment.
There is urgent need for a modern,
up-to- date opera house built on the
ground floor with plenty of light and
air and exits on every side. In all en-
Iightened communities the stage is
recognized as an essentiol factor in the
education and entertainment of the
people. Without some diversion from
commercial pursuits and from hard
daily toll, the people become sordid,
selfish and morose, like miners in the
isolated regions of the frozen North or
sheepherders on the lonely range.
Just now Walla Walla is in a most
unfortunate situation in respect to
places of innocent amusement The
opera house has been condemned as
unsafe and the Young Mems Christian
Association building is still dream of
the future. There are plenty of places
of amusement not so innocent which
are more largely patronized than they
would be if the better class of enter
tainment were to be had.
1t is deplOrable condition for the
young men and young women of this
city, to say nothing of the hundreds of
heads of families who can see nothing
but dreary rounds of toll with little to
brighten up their leisure hours but
Sunday services and week day prayer
meetings at the churches with an oc-
casional funeral for a change.
The wealthy men of this city having
philanthropic turn of mind should
recognize these unfortunate conditions
and provide remedies. One of the first
should be the building of a safe, COM
mOdious and creditable opera house
another should be the building of
nome for the Young Mems Christian
Association, still another should be the
building of public gymnasium
Some of the rich men of this opulent
city who are now laying up treasures
Tor moths to corrupt and unerateful
heirs to fight over in the courts might
well consider the building of monu-
ments to themselves in the hearts and
memories of their fellow townspeople

agrees to the senator's choice.
1t has developed that just before
the campaign closed an effort was
made to have the president appoint a
postmaster at Seattle. Who made the
offer or whether a compromise in the
fight against Stewart was suggested
is not disclosed. Postmaster General
Wynne took the matter up with the
president, who Immediately put his
foot down and refused to do anything
when informed that Congressman
Humphrey and Senator Ankeny were
not jointly asking for the appoint
ment.
The congressman and senator APP
pear to be as widely apart as ever
over this office and it looks as though
Stewart would continue as postmaster
for a long time.
