The Railroad Rae Guest on in Nit
she'll.

~ """S~~ w X1oss0 "" w Nut-
she'll.
One of the clearest and best
statements of the essential facts
bearing upon the proposed regu-
latior of interstate railroad rates
by Government aut GRITTY that
has been presented is contained
] in The addaess delivered by Hon.
john V. Smith, of Montgomery,
before he National Association
of Railway Commissioners at
recent meeting in Deadwood, S.
I'd MIR. Smith was the retiring
president Of the association, and
in addition to his experience as
chairman Of the Alabama Rail
road Commission, he has given a
careful study TO the larger prob
lem Of national regulation.
Mr.. Smith sums The matter as
follows:
"First-It has been clearly
shown and proved by statistics
which | have never heard ques-
toned, that the AVERAGE freight
rates upon our American rail
ways are, by actual compari son,
lower than any other country in
the world, aud lower than ever
before in this country.
"Second-That the average
pay of the laborers on our rail
ways is higher than that of any
other country inthe world. n
4"rilird-That of the total earn
Ings of the American railways
1880 per cent goes for labor and
1904 per cent for capital; in
Epglaud 2703 per cent for labor,
80 OF per cent for capital; in
Germany 3S04 per cent for la
Dor aud 35.02 for capital. 1t is
also shown that for the year 1904
the pay of employees in the
United States has absorbed AZ
per cent Of the gross earnings.
'sFourth 1t was shown that
according TO the census aud in,
terstate commerce reports the
net increase IN the United States
from operation of agriculture in
1900 was sos per cent; from
manufactures 1906 per cent;
while the railways have only
yielded 4.06 per cent. 1t is also
true that the farms and manu-.
facturing enterprises owe their
prosperity to the cheap, rapid.
and efficient railway Transports
ton.
Fifth That the average cap.
italization of the railways in the
United States is SOL, 800, as
against $l27, 696 in other coun.
tries.
"Sixth-That instead of the
ownership of railways being con-
centrated into only a few hands,
the report of the Interstate
Commerce Commission Shove
that for the year 1904 the mum
Der of stockholders amounted to
1927 .S51, and the owners of rail
way bonds amounted to. about
100000, making a grand total OF
more than a million.
"Seventh-That to place the
rate making power in the hands
of the Interstate Commerce Com
mission would logically result in
the adoption of an arbitrary
basis for fixing freight rates,
which in turn would result in
fthe erection of a Chinese wall
around each industrial center,
beyond the bounds of which it
would be impossible to do bust
ness"

GREATER
KENTUCKY.
Many Business Men of the State
Gather in Convention at
Louisville.
MAY MAKE THE MEETING ANNUAL.

hOuioNiiic, n.y., WI. liz --CiS y
Dalized by the attendance of
nearly 600 representatives of
Louisville and the State at large,
who are enthusiastic in the idea
of developing the resources of
Kentucky, the fourth State De-
velopment Convention convened
| yesterday at the Gait House.
Eight addresses were made dur
ing the day, each replete with
appeals to the citizens of the
State to awake to it's possibilities.
The organization of business
clubs was one Of the most i'm
Iportant suggestions. Several
speakers of the day suggested
that Kentucky should cease de-
Ipending on honor of the past and
look to the future.
! In all of the eight speeches
made; the two ideas were pre-
dominant. Kentucky has lived
! long on honor,n said one speak.

that, we should look for some-
thing else.-commercfal growth.
advancement and prosperity, not
the worship of old ideas. Those
have become synonymous with
the name, Kentucky. Now we
need commercial push"
Delegates to the convention
began to gather early in the
morning and spent the time be-
fore 2 o'clock registering and Sc
curing badges. Before the OPEN
ing session was called to order,
nearly every county had been
represented and others arrived
later in the day and last night.
At the afternoon session, the
convention hall was well filed.
At the combined smoker, music
ale and business session last night
standing room was almost at a
premium.
Great Enthusiasm.
La point of attendance and en-.
thusiasm the convention has al
ready surpassed any heretofore
held. With the first address,
the representatives of the differ.
ent counties showed tendency
to,applaud every utterance in
regard to the present prosperity
of the State. After some sober
consideration of the object of the
convention, however, this disap
peared to give place to an appar
ent interest in every sentence of
/
advice or recommendation.
! While the actual business of
the convention was hardly reach
ed yesterday, the speakers went
to the meat of the subjects I'M
der consideration with little
play of words. The attendance
at night was augmented largely
by Louisville business men,
many Of whom attended the af-
ternoon session also.
May be Annual Event.
Owing to the unsurpassed en-
thusiasm expressed in the con-
ventlon, the promoters have
about decided that it shall be
made an annual meeting hereaf-
ter instead of a biennial gather
ing as heretofore. Three pros
porous Kentucky cities have
sent large delegations to the con-
vention to push this idea in the
hope of attracting the next meet
ing. Paducah, Winchester and
Versailles are the candidates for
the honor of entertaing the con-
vention at it's next session, and
each delegation is anxious to
have the next meeting held as
soon as possible.
The widely expressed opinions
ofN the delegates, speakers and
promoters of the meeting were

We believe that the present
session of the legislature would
do a good act if they would legis.
late the Office of railroad com.
missioner out of existence. What
good has this set of officials done
the state? The Office was Great
ed simply that someof the friends
of the politicians might have a
job. They have all been men
without any practical knowledge
of railroading and their term of
Office is so short that they have
no opportunity to become famil-
lar with the requirements of the
Office and consequently are of no
benefit to the state. What has
this commission ever done for
the village of Courtney? Nothing.
What has it ever done for any
other town in the state? Moth
ing. What then is the object of
keeping a set of officials who
never do anything for anybody
or anything. Severa! times they
have been appealed to in Courte-
nay and each time they have
taken the matter under advise
ment and forgot to advise. We
believe that the Office is neces-
sary in order for the people to
get justice from the railroad

CASE.

States Attorney Wineman of
Grand Forks has taken an ap-
peal to the supreme court in the
case of Hans Nelson of North
wood accused of blindpigging,
from the decision of Judge Fisk,
who ordered the jury to acquit
the defendant on the ground
that the evidence did not show
that Nelson had sold the wit
.nesses beer for the purpose of
making any gain, or that such
sale had been proven. Nelson,
according to the evidence of the
state, took two kegs of beer un-
der the driveway of and elevator,
where a crowd congregated and
drank the stuff after turning
over so cents each to him.
States Attorney Wineman in
sists that if the law will allow
such proceedings, the state will
be overrun with blindpiggers
who will ship in carloads of beer
and distribute it without fear of
punishment, thus defeating the
purpose of the prohibition law.
The state claims that several of
those who partook of the bever-
age and paid for it never had any
previous arrangement with Mel
son, and purchased the liquor in
direct violation of law.
Judge Pollock has held in two
Cass county cases that q like
transaction is in violation of law.
