Railroad Regulation.
From the Brotherhood of Locomotive En-

From the Brotherhood of Locomotive En-
gineers Journal, May, 1909
The congressional committee author
lied to investigate railroad practices sc
as to give the Senate more information
when the Esch-Townsend bill, passed by
the House, comes up at the next session
probabl in October, began their inquiry
on April II. We believe the Esch-
Townsend bill will have to be very much
modified before it can pass the Senate;
but every subdivision of the B. of l.. r.
in the States should take an interest in
this subject which they ought to feel is
very near to them, for the interest OF
the railroads in large sense, is their in
terest; not that it would result in the
reduction of wages, but would, in all
probability, deter any advance and
would likely make it more difficult to
sustain what we have, and it would be a
good move either to see or write each
congressman or senator, and express
disapproval of any measure which would
take from the railroad management the
rate-making power. Let the law be
amended, if necessary, to give the com
mission power to cure such evils as are
complained of, and give it unqualified
authority to enforce the interstate COM
merce law.
It is very difficult for a layman to see
wherein the government can infringe at
will upon the liberty of contract of rail
roads in the interest of the shipper
when there can be no legal restriction
placed on bakeshops in the interest OF
the journeyman baker or the public.

Moral: Buy Your own Newspaper.

A man who was too economical to
subscribe for his home paper sent his
little boy to borrow the copy taken
by his neighbor. In his haste the
boy ran over 81 stand of bees and in
ten minutes looked like a warty sum-
mer squash. His cries reached his
father who ran to his assistance, and,
failing to notice barbed-wire fence,
ran into it, breaking it down, cutting
a handful Of flesh from his anatomy
and RUNNING So pair of pants. The
old COW took advantage of the gap in
the fence and got into the cornfeld
and killed herself eating green corn.
Hearing the racket, the wife ran, up
set a four-gallon churn of rich
cream into basket of kittens drown
ing the whole flock. In her hurry she
dropped a $25 set of false teeth. The
baby, left alone, crawled through the
spilled cream and into the parlor,
running a $40 carpet. During the ex-
element the oldest daughter ran
away with the hired man, the dog
broke up eleven setting hens, and the
calves got out and chewed the tails off
four fine shirts.-Kansas City Jour
nal.

Profits of the Packers.

There has been a great deal of dis
appointment because the Garfield re
port shows that the profits Of the
packing industry only amount to
about two per cent on the volume OF
business transacted. There is nc
doubt, however, that the report is cor
rect
The census reports compiled by the
government in 1900 before the agita-
ton regarding the ''beef trust" began
throw considerable light on this ques-
ton. 1t appears from the census that
the packing industry is conducted on
smaller margin Of gross profit than
any other industry in America. The
gross margin of profit Of 81 -four and
gr1st mills in Illinois, in the census
year, was nearly seven per cent on the
volume of business. The gross margin
OF fifty-one wholesale slaughtering and
meat packing establishments in ILL
nois was only about one-third as large,
or little more than two per cent on
the volume of business.
The millers have not been accused
Of being in a "trust," and combina-
tons would seem impossible in a bust
ness where there are several thousand
mills in the United States competing
actively for the flour trade, but it APP
pears that the gross profits of the mill
ers are larger than the gross profits of
the packers. 1t may turn out that the
agitation regarding the packing indus
try will show the same result as the
devil found in Shearing the pig: "All
Suueal and no WOOL"

"Advanced' Women and Birth-Rate.

To charge upon this very limited
emancipation movement the present
declining bfrth-rate is surely to derive
very great results from very trifling
causes. The one country where the
decline of the population has been
most prolonged and serious is the one
country where the women admittedly
combine both domestic genius and so
cial charm to an unexampled degree,
and where the feminist movement has
never taken any extensive hold, and
that is France.-London Chronicle.

The YOUNG Man Who Drinks.

The time Is coming fast-indeed, it
has already arrived in our commercial
life-when a young man who has
habits of intemperance is narrowing
very rapidly the possible range Of
openings in whlcl. he may make 8
living.
Fifteen years ago, as the tcainmas-
tor op a division Of one of the large
railroads told the writer, he sat In his
ofhce one day and saw freight train
stand for two hours waiting for a
number OF the train crew to recover
from intoxication. When they were
able to handle the train it moved out
of the yard. Now, the trainmaster
said, II the brakeman or any Of the
train crew were found using liquor,
or II they we're even seen TO enter a
saloon. they were instantly discharg
ed. The idea OF keeping whole train
waiting for man to recover from
drunkenness would seem perfectly
absurd to the railroad corporations
now.

A.common senae oueatIon.

Actuaries Of leading life insurance
companies declare that Investigations
prove that drinking men are such
hazardous risks that new form pol
Icy should be adopted governing their
case. In thirty-six years the deaths
number 1881 drinkers, as against
1886 abstainers of men between the
ages Of twenty and seventy years. The
conclusion OF the actuarles is that tee
totalers as a class live from twenty
to fifty per cent. longer than moder-
ate drinkers as a class. There has
been during the last year an unusual
amount of discussion by leading physi-
clans in England and France on the
value OF alcohC. as a drug and Its
Its danger as beverage, and there is
now on record a voluminous mass OF
testimony on the question, which Is
not only Of the highest scientific char
acter, but also free from the preju-
dice which sometimes stultifies prohi-
bition literature. These conclusions
may be summed up thus: In certain
bodily conditions, and when care
fully administered, alcohol Is valu-
able drug. but at present It is used
much too freely, and consequently
with harmful results. Its use as
daily beverage in any form is pro
nounced to be dangerous. physically
and morally. 1t was found that the
death rate even among moderate
drinkers Of the first class is much
larger than among total abstainers.
This finding was reached from statis-
tics covering 125, 600 lives in period
OF sixty-one years.

A DANGEROUS Calling.

Mr.. George B. Wilson contributes
to the London Daily News an inter-
esting article, In which he submits an
estimate Of the number of persons en-
gagged in the liquor trafic in Great
Britain and Ireland. The total num-
ber, including masters. brewers, dis
tillers, merchants, bar-keepers, do
mestic servants and all others con
nccted with the work of supplying
strong drink he figures out at 42S, ,452.
In another article he discusses the
death rate in this class of the popula-
ton, and finds from the ffty-ffth
report of the registrar general that
some years ago when the number of
male persons in these occupations
was 10S,660. the annual mortality OF
the class was 1921,
The same report shows that the
annual mortality in the same num-
ber of persons of the population at
large was 1.721.
This means that among 108,660 per-
sons engaged in the liquor business,
there was an annual excess Of 1900
deaths more than among the same
number Of the average population.
