TIE RAILROADS
THEIR INFLUENCE ON THE GROWTH
OF OUR COUNTRY.

y
always find first class article at a
fair price Where there is no
competition you will find an infe-
rior article and high prices. The
keen competition that exists be-
tween the railroads will always
keep before the public the best in
the line of transportation, at a
rate, as long as it lasts.
Each system is trying to out-do
the other and in that way they are
continually making improvements
in service, equipment and rates.
At this day railroad must have
it's drawing card the same as any
other enterprise, or it will soon go
down. The war that exists in
railway circles is the only possible
by which the American pub
lie can expect a frst-class article
in that line and at the same time
have the satisfaction of watching
progressive strides in our trans
portation facilities.
In looking at the influence of
the railways on the country's prog.
ress, there is no question but what
it is good, providing they are not
given too much scope-I mean
that our lawmakers must watch
them. At present they may have
too much power, but this can be
by the government.
Gov. Van SAINT did one of the best
things ever done when he stopped
the Great Northern-Northern Pa
cific merger. Had this been al
lowed, the traffic of the Northwest
would now be at the mercy of one
individual, or one system, and he
would then be in a position to die
tate to the public instead of cater
ing to the public. The result,
rates would advance from time to
time; instead of lowering as they
do now. and the consumers would
have to foot the bill The manu-
tacturer and jobber are not the
parties hurt in these cases. They
always make their percentage.
Other systems would soon have
started the same game and it
would only be short time until
all the different systems would be
tremendously working together, or
possibly controlled by one vast syn
dictate. Then their influence on
our country would be bad. The
point is to keep them working
against each other. and SO long as
such conditions exist their infu-
ence on our country's prosperity
will be good.
How do the railroads benefit the
country? [ will endeavor to an
swer that question in this way:
Suppose you are a capitalist, have
idle money which you want in
vested in some business enterprise.
You can 60 TO any railroad today
and they will pick location for
you and tell you just what kind of
an enterprise is best suited for
that locality. They will do more
than this, they will assist you in
building up your trade, advertise
it for you, etc. They do not do
all this simply for your benefit,
but because they know if you
make success you will help in
crease their earnings. In this way
thousands of Industries have
sprung up throughout the whole
country. I can name no better
example of this than the city of
Chicago. Chicago is the greatest
railroad center in the world. 1t is
growing more rapidly than any
other city in the world. The sole
cause of Chicago's rapid growth is
the railroads. They have brought
thousands of different industries
there. Take any community with

l"Where in this field are the wicked folks laid?
I've wandered the quiet old graveyard through
And studied the epitaphs old and new.
But monument, Obeisk. pillar or stone,

The sexton leaned by new-made grave,
His chin his hand his hand on his spade;
knew by the flash of his eloquent eye
That his heart was nstructing his lips to reply.
'WEO is the Judge when the soul takes flight?
Who is to Judge twixt the wrong and the right?
