Sectional Differences.

In one of bis Texas speeches

they would become fast friends,
and there would no longer be sec.

President is doubtless correct.

fact time and again. Incident

The Roosevelt Railroad war,

President Roosevelt has re-
turned to Washington from his
three weeks camping among the
the mountains of Colorado IN the
best of health and strength.
There are many important mat
ters at the national capital which
he will have to take up and
among them is the. gage of battle
the railroads haye thrown at his
feet. This interesting incident
occurred during the impromptu
debate between Secretary Taft
and President Stuyvesant Fish,
of the Illinois Central Rail-
road, at the banquet in Washing
ton given by the American Ra il
way Congress.
Acting as the spokesm an of
President Roosevelt the. honora-
BILE Secretary of War defined the
position of the administration of
the question of the Federal reg
ulation Of railroad rates and
thereby created distinct issue
between the President and the
railroads.
Secretary Taft was quite clear
in declaring that rate regulation
ougnt to come, while Mr.. Fish
was just as positive in saying that
it should not be attempted and
was practically impossible.
There is no doubt but Secreta-
~ Taft spoke by authority and
understanding with President
Roosevelt. In fact, his speech
followed closely in the line of
the Presidents speech at Denver
Q few days ago, when he dcclar-
ed decidedly that 1.-THE nation
should assume a supervisory and
regulatory function over the great
corporations which practically
control the highways of COM
merce.'
Both the Presiden and. the
Secretary based their opinions on
the cOnN IctiOn that the railroads
should be controlled and operated
in the interests of the public and
for the general welfare, instead
of exclusively as private proper
ties.
On the other hand Mr.. Fish rep.
resenting the railroads intimated
quite clearly that the railway cor
porations were prepared to tight
the administration to the last
ditch and to defeat the Presi-
dents policy IN. O. States.
