santo Dcmlnno in octoher.


 William Nelson Cromwell has be- come a national 'fgger" of the largest dimensions. It was he who sold the French Panama canal to Uncle Sam by first getting up a revolution that set up the comic opera republic called Panama. It now appears that the sue !. cess of that movement has inspired him to form syndicates to finance the debts of the rest of Latin America, he and his associates having first ac- uuired a good share of those debts at repudiation rates. Beyond a doubt he stands behind the Santo Domingo scheme. Financing is safe and easier than Panama revolution conducted by a handful of firemen from the only fre-engine house on the isthmus. Bonds on bargain counters is what he is looking for, and he found them to the extent of $30,O0O,OOO in santo Do. ' mingo. He cannot unload unless he can induce the United States to finance them.
 The Senate adjourned without act ing on the Cromwelian theory, but 1t is still before the Senate, and William Nelson TO doubt expects to revive the treaty when the Senate meets in extra session in October. He can afford to wait few months in order to get his bonds in condition for unloading at high prices. There are millions in 1t provided the Senate will ratify the treaty and take charge of the Domini- can finances.
 President Roosevelt can call spe- cial session of Congress, but he can not specify what it shall or shall not consider Governor Jelks can call a special session of the legislature. and he must define it's work. Not so when Congress is convened in special ses- sion. Once in session Congress can make its own programme, and the president cannot control it's action. No other law-malSing body is so in- dependent.
 Santo Domingo will doubtless be kept by the Cromwellites in statu quo in the hope that it will be taken up in October and ratified. But it will not Le left untouched by the people in the meantime It's every feature will be discussed, ar when Congress meets in October the treaty will probably be as dead as Hector. Disclosure will doubtless follow disclosure, and when the Senate meets it probably could not be induced to touch the scheme. Sen ator Morgan has called public atten- ton to the international game that re- calls the intrigues and the scandals of the colonial adventures of the eigh- teenth century.
 Nor need anyone anticipate foreign intervention. The Monroe doctrine is still in operation so far as the seizure of territory ic concerned, and Com mander Dillinghar. holds possession of two custom houses in Santo Domingo to meet specified and recognized claims. No harm will flow from the inaction of the Senate, and the Senate in october should not accept the pend ing treaty except upon the fullest pos  s.ble investigation.

 In an address before the constitution grand lodge of .BNai B'Rith at New Or leans President. simon Wolf stated that during the past four years 4,OOO. GOO for eigners had come into this country. and of these one-tenth were Jews. Such heavy immigration of Jews to the United States Is surprising to those who have not kept in touch with statistics on the sub ject. one-tenth of 100000 means 400 Ooo Jews in only four years. most of whom were driven to this country by oppres- sion abroad. As rule Jews make high ly acceptable immigrants. They are peaceable. law-abiding and thrifty The greatest problem which they afford ffhe student of sociological and economfca prob lems is their proper distribution. If the thousands of Jews arriving in this cnun- try each year could be scattered over the land instead of settling down in the al- ready overcrowded cities of the east their sconditionswould be vastly impropedr and they would be more valuable citIzens.oThe plan to make New Orleans a port Of en- ,try for distributing foreigners over the southern states contains possibilities for much. good. s41effA

The subscrip- ton rate for one year is one dollar.

Railroad Rate Legislation.

Testiyfing before the Senate Commit
tee at Washington, Interstate Com
merce Commissioner Prouty said in
discussing the proposition TO give to
that Commission the power to regulate
railway rates:
81 think the railways should make
their own rates. think they should
be allowed to develope their own bust
ness. | have never advocated any law,
and l am not now in favor of any law,
which would put the rate making
power into the hands of any commits
sion or any ocurt. While it may be
necessary to do that some time, while
that is done in some states at the pres
ent time, while it is done in some
countries, am opposed to it. *'F*#
Tie railway rate is property. 1t is all
the property that the railway has got.
The rest of its property is not good for
anything unless it can charge a rate.
Now it has always seemed to me that
when rate was fixed, if that rate was
an unreasonable rate, it deprives the
railroad company of its property pro
tanto. 1t is not necessary that you
should confiscste the property of rail-
road; 1T is not necessary that you
should say that it shall not earn three
or four Der cent. When you put in a
rate that is inherently unreasonable,
you have deprived that compan of its
rights, of its property, and the circuit
court of the United States has jurisdic'
ton under the fourteenth amendment
to restrain that. ****I have looked al
these cases a great many times, and
can only come to the conclusion thai
a railroad company is entitled tc
charge a fair and reasonable rate, ant
if. any order of the commission, if any
statute of a state legislation takei
away that rate, the fourteenth amend
ment protects the railway company.
