MIR. ROOSEVELT AND THE RAIL
ROADS.

That the attitude of President
Roosevelt In championing the cause
Of rate regulation Of the railroads
Of the country will meet with deter
mined opposition on the part OF the
corporations affected was never more
1orcibly emphasized than when an
earnest protest was hled with him
last Tuesday by the representatives
OF five great labor organizations re-
presenting the engineers. fremen.
conductors. switchmen and train
men OF all Of the big railroad lines
in the country.
This was an attack from the rear
aud no doubt astounded many who
had never conceived of any such pro
test being launched in defense of
the great network OF railroad sys-
TENS now covering the country. Mr.
George Huntley, the spokesman Of
the delegation is quoted as follows:
zone million and a quarter rail-
way employees have noted with con-
Germ the tendency toward Federal
Legislation on railroad rates. AS
there has appeared no hint that any
general increase in the prevailing
rates was contemplated, we are
forced 70 believe that the other al
Tentative must follow, and a general
reduction in the earning power of
our railway lines would result"
The speaker declared with empha
sis that railroad employees were sat
isfied that any legislation tending TO
reduce the earning capacity OF rail-
road lines Will, in the same meas
ure, interfere with the prosperity
and generally satisfactory condi-
lions OF the railroad employees.
Mr.. Huntley stated that IL had
come to be the attitude of the ad-
ministration and Of prominent Re
publicans generally that when a re-
vision of the tariff is made the chan
ges should be by it's friends, and not
by its enemies. 1--WE suggest"
said Mr.. Huntley. that a similar
course be followed In railway rate
