The Only Right Way

Colonel Tibbles makes light of the
tons and sees in government owner
ship the only correct solution of the
greatest problem of the hour. Thomas
is wrong, however, in assuming that
the government has no right to safe
guard the public against the fragrant
inequalities of railroad mismanage-
ment. These great highways of civili-
cation exist by virtue of popular con-
sent, and are as subject to the police
power of state or general government
as are the hackmen in our cities to
municipal authority. Congress may
therefore delegate power to the inter
state commerce commission to do a lit
tie regulating in the interest Of a
square deal.-State Journal.
The proposition made by The hide
pendent is this: A railroad is either
public property or private property. 1t
can not be both at the same time. If it
is semi-public, then half CT it's BONDS
and stocks should be in the public
treasury and half of it's board Of direc-
tors should be appointed by the people
In the second place, The Independent
lis opposed to all sorts OF paternaiism
1T believes that every man should be
left alone to conduct his own business
as he sees fit as long as he does not
trespass upon the rights CT others. II
would naturally follow that if the gov
eminent had the right to fix the price
for the services, or the goods of one
man, it would have the right to do so
with services and goods of every other
man. If that is not true why is it not?
That the government has, spadmodical-
ly undertaken to dc that sort of thing
and that the courts have occasionally
upheld it, no one denies. But it is pa
ternalism all the same. Let the gov
|ernment stop trying to run the business
|of private individuals and make every
monopoly public property That's the
only right way.

Young Garfield of the bureau Of COM
merce and publicity has been for more
than year engaged in, the heaviest
kind of Investigating" According to
his report which he sent to congress
last week the beef trust ic benevolent

buying steers and slaughtering them at
a profit of less than per cent on the
capital invested, and part Of the time
at loss. The big stick must employ
magic of some sort, for acres and acres
of big buildings have been constructed
at Chicago, Omaha, Kansas City and
other packing centers during those
years. Those buildings have been filled
with costly machinery and the dressed
meat and by-products come out OF them
by the trainload every day in the year
to be distributed all over The face OF the
earth. Then during these years the
price of dressed meat has been going
up and the price of live stock going
down and all this time the "big six"
were only making per cent and some
time nothing at ALL That is the sort
of report that bureau of publicity has
furnished after investigation" con-
corning the beef trust. BY the time the
senate and the house get through in
estigating'' we will be informed that
the poor railroads are also running at
a loss in bad years and only making 2
per cent in the best times. There is
nothing like investigations" They
are the greatest thing on earth. Con-
gress has provided for million dollars
worth to be carried on during the sum-
mer Then Garfield is going on with
the investigating business with his bu-
reau. His next report will contain an
appeal to congress to save the poverty
stricken beef trust from humiliation,
because it persists in selling meat so
cheap to the hungry people than it is
entitled to an appropriation as one Of
the great benevolent and charitable in
stitutions of the world.

What Railroad Government Costs

VlAot NolAO0o oONOAILHCIt SOStS
The Independent has for years been
pointing to the fact that local freight
rates were 81 IL per cent higher in
Nebraska than in Iowa and some other
states where the building and operat-
ing of railroads cost practically the
same as in this state The editor once
brought case before the railroad com
mission asking for q reduction in rates
based upon the rate sheets of Iowa and
Nebraska, but nothing was ever done
about it. The people preferred to let
the railroads run the state government
to suit themselves It. is interesting
now to look over the situation and con-
template the Millions yes millions, that
it has cost the farmers of this state
to vote 'er straight" and let the rail
roads run things. We are fortunately
able to find out just what it has cost
the farmers
A government census report recently
issued shows the difference in price of
farm crops in this state and Kansas
and other surrounding states. There
is no reason why the price of corh,
cats, potatoes, hay, winter wheat,
spring wheat, barley ana rye should be
higher in Kansas than in Nebraska,
save that freight rates were less. 1t is
interesting to note now much better
off Nebraska would nave been at the
close of 1904 If she had been able to
get out of her farm products the same
price that Kansas is shown by the gov
eminent reports to have secured. By
not enjoying Kansas prices, Nebraskas
losses on the leading farm products,
exclusive of live stock, were as follows.

planting in West Philadelphia school
the other day.
why do we plant treesg' asked the
teacher. Two scholars stood ready to
put down answers The replies came
thick and fast, and here are some Of
them:
Because they are beautiful.
Because they give US shade.
They break the force Of winds.
They help to make us healthy by
equalizing the temperature and moist
ure in the woods.
Because they provide Us with india
rubber. gum, resin, spices, dyestuffs.
medicines. seeds aud nuts.
They furnish US with timber for
building houses. ships, railways cars,
etc.
Because without them we could not
have spools. matches. shoe pegs, tooth
picks md lots Of other useful things.
Because trees are the most valuable
crop the ground can produce.
The value Of our trees is fifteen per
cent more eaen year than our produc-
tion OF all our wheat corn, oats. rye,
arley and buckwheat put together.
