Europe and Our Railway System.

The issue Of a preliminary program
for the International Railway congress
which is to meet in Washington next
May, calls to mind the interesting fact
that the coming session will be the
first to be held in America. 1t also
suggests the query: What has Amer
lea to teach the railway experts of the
old world which woul djustffy the invi-
tation to them to come here?
American delegates who went to
Paris in 1900, found that the European
engineers and managers were in no
way impressed by either American
mileage, or American methods, regard
ing nine-tenths Of our Eight railways
as hardly suitable as feeders to the
principal lines Of Europe. They failed
to realize, perhaps, the exigencies of
a new and undeveloped country, and
the difference between provisions for
existing traffic ard the agencies for
creating traffic. At any rate the
European railways have accepted Am
erica's invitation, and their delegates
are coming to study the American
practice and its results. Those results
are so patent that the foreigners are
NO longer contemptuous and Indifferent
and hence America Is expected to make
an instructive showing for itself.
Like all great congresses of the sor
the technical discussions will be hello
at various section meetings, but the
spectacular event Of the session will be
the exhibition of railway appliances
plans for which are being forwarded
por,,;ss;on of thu government will h,
asked for the temporary occupation O
the Monument grounds, the so-callet
white lot" and there Is every indi
cation from the personnel OF the com
mittees and the promises of the man
ufacturers that creditable exhibition
will be held.

read as follows:
above all else, we must strive to
keep the highways Of commerce open
to all, on equal terms; and to do this
it is necessary to put a complete stop
to all rebates. While am of the opin-
ion that at present it would be unde-
sirable, If it were not impracticable,
finally to clothe the Interstate Com
merce Commission with general au-
thority, to fix railroad rates, ] do be-
lieve that, as fair security to shippers
the commission should he vested with
the power, where a given rate has
been challenged, and afte: full hear
ing found to be unreasonable to de-
eide, subject to judicial review, what
shall be a reason ao'>s rate to take It's
place; the finding of the commission
to take effect Immediately, and to OBJ
tain unless and until it is reversed
by the court of review. In my judy
ment the most important legislative
act now needed is this act"
The later item is from President
Roosevelts message. Will the Register
reiterate it's item Of the first page now.
Or was it written to discredit Govern
ors Cummins, VanSant, and LaFollette
in their fight along this line! But what
ever the Registers object, the item
discredits it and none else.

family for piles, cuts and burns for
years and can recommend 1t to be the
best salve on the market. Every fam

Mrs. Samuel Gage, Of North Bush, N.

tention to the fact that for the notable
novels Of the present day we do not
look to the older writers, but rather
to the men who. practically unknown

way to fame thru work which bears all
possible evidence Of sincerity and per-

NORTON PROVES HANDY.

Al the question Of railroad rates
s,r.aa to the front until it almost
PROMISES to become the question Oh
The hour before the close OF the VIII
Ears session Of congress, 1t becomes
apparent that the president had some
thing more in mind than good secre-
xarv of the navy when he put Paul
Morton in the cabinet. Morton is one
Of the keenest and one OF the broadese
minded railroad men in the country
vet at first it seemed strange that
landlubber from the interior, no mat
ter how able, should be selected for the
navy portfolio, but here is this tremen-
dous rate question up, and Paul Nor
ton is already in the cabinet.
Norton has policy, program per-
tanning to this rate question. He has
already proposed to the president.
First, that the government should
s,,peryise Interstate rates thru the IN
terstate commerce commission upon
complaint Of unreasonable charge.
Secondly, that the statutes should
permit railroads to pool their earnings
i e. to divide the business OF any given
territory.
Thirdly, that special court should
be established to try railway rate
cases.
Fourthly, that by Ming a bond rail-
roada could keep on charging rate
ayen tho declared unreasonable by the
commission, said bond to guarantee the
rebate OF the difference in case the
