There seems to be a howl going up
over the state on the agitation now
being started by Senator Titus of
biennial election fame for a tour year
term for county officers. 1t appears
that he has been writing letters to
the county auditors of the state to
secure their cooperation in getting
such bill through the state legis-
lature when it meets next winter.
He used the same tactics to get the
people to vote the biennial election
movement, getting the numerous
officers in each county effected by
this law to send out letters urging
its passage. and hopes to hypnotize
the legislature through the same
medium. It, is not unlikely that the
term of the Representatives would be
heightened by the same measure, in
order to get their support for it.
And it is also probable that officials
will consider the old rule of two term

The cry is heard frequently in this
country that the state should own the
railroads. Yet if we are to judge by
the experience of European countries
we will certainly think well before
taking any such step. The state roads
of France. as of all the German states
except Prussia, have long since de-
monstrated their inefficiency in all
departments and now L. Paul Henry,
in the Annales des Sciences Poclitiques
of Paris, holds Switzerland up to us
in similar light. During 1908 and
1904 the Swiss roads were under the
complete control of the state. and M.
Henry therefore. asks. "What judg-
ment may be passed on the financia;
results of 1908 and 1904? 1t seems that
the most favorable verdict we can
render is that the roads have not
actually been imperiled. But if we
compare this to the golden age which
was predicted, we may easily under
stand how great has been the dis
illusionment in Switzerland. The
most serious phase of all. however.
lies in the fact that reflex action
