hostility scarcely less strong has

thar congress Is now confronted with
the question whether 1t Is right 10
force a territory into the union under
conditions against which the bulk or
its people rebel. Whether the local
opposition has beer worked up in a
legitimate way is a question that can
not be discussed In a convincing man

be said that charges are made indi-
eating that the local politicians self

which exercise a powerful political
influence in the two territories, are
very active in trying TO kill the merg-
or scheme. The Southern Pacific

II Is openly said, prefer two states
rather Than one. because two states
would give them four members of
the United States senate. However
this may be, il Is doubtless true that
the southern senators, under Mr.. Cor
mans lead. are being influenced to
oppose the merger in the hope that
with two states created out of Ari-
IONA and New Mexico the democratic
strength in the senate may be In
creased. All these elements based on
selfish Interests are undoubtedly con-
lributing to defeat the measure.
while. at the same time. there are
certain natural and legitimate OBJ
iections-such as the great size of
the proposed state-which provoke
opposition among the inhabitants of
the Two territories.
Evidently the bill might as well be
withdrawn, for nobody seems to
have any enthusiasm for it, Okla

RAILROAD PRESIDENTS AROUSED

The presidents OF all the principal
railroads of the United States have
been putting their heads together In
New York City with the object OF
crystallzing their views on the sub
ject OF the proposed railroad rate
Legislation. The railroad magnates.
II In said. are Of the opinion that Sc
rIous mischief would be wrought by
vesting In the interstate commerce
commission the power TO the existing
adjustment OF railroad rates. They
also believe thar such action would
directly injure the 1000, 900 holders
OF railorad securities In this coun-
try"
One naturally concludes that the
railroad presidents are more concern.
I'D 70 rthe few thousand men who hold
the bulk OF these securities than for
the remainder of the 1000, 900 who
hold limited quantities and have no
part In their control. But, granted
thar a really effective rate reform
would operate to the disadvantage Of
the 1000, 900. the resultant adyan-
tage 10 the remaining 10000 COO
would apparently justify 1t.
The railroad presidents feel strong.
ly In this subject and are taking tbs
most effective measures possible to
enforce their views. The people al
Of the country also feel strongly ana
II lies within them whether tne,, In.
tercsts will outweigh those OF the
railroad presidents or not.

product. Germany, the home of the anti
septic and color industry, prohibits the use
of these substances in foods. Ireland, Bel
GUM, France, Denmark and Italy have
laws against them. The British courts
have decided against them under the COM
mon law of the island, and the .parlia-
mentary commission has recommended Sc
we're penalties against their unrestricted
use in some cases and in others condemned
them altogether. This country prohibits the
importation of food products which contain
substances deleteriouS to health or which
are misbranded in any particular, and ev-
cry demand of justice would indicate that
food products intended for interstate COM
merce. Even a small quantity of an in
furious substance should not be added to
foods because in this case the consumer
would get a little bit of borax in his meat
little bit of salicylic acid in his jam, a
little bit of copper sulphate in his peas
and beans, little bit of benzoic acid in
maldehyde in his milk and cream, and thus
before the meal was through would have
a quantity of Injurious substances fully
sufficient when taken day after day, as it
would be, to impair his health and diges-
ton.
Mr.. Eccles' argument in regard to high
er prices of foods in those cases where
what the logicians call non causa pro
causa. 1 have shown as the result of my
official inspection in connection with the
work of the Kentucky food law that the
facts are in direct contradiction to DR.
Eccles' theory. 1t would be just as logical
to attribute the war in Manchuria and the

huence. R. NJ. ALLEN,
