-Don't knock-come In"

[Council Bluffs Nonpariel.1
Here are four words Of gold for you:
Don't knock. Come in"
When worthy plans are going thru,
Don't knock. Come in"
When the friends about you all agree
To bring your town prosperity,
Why stand aloof with comments free
"Don't knock. Come in"
When friendship swings her gates your
way,
"Don't knock. Come in"
When stores announce a bargain day,
"Don't knock. Come in"
When, late at night, within your hand,
You see four kings together stand
And someone boosts to beat the band
"Don't knock. Come in"
When'er you rob a house at night,
"Dont knock. Go in"
When you sneak home by morning S
light,
Don't knock. Go in"
When on the ice you rashly go
And skate serenely to and fro
Until an air hole yawns below
Don't knock. Go In"

LESSON FOR FARMERS.

According to reliable reports the
Pennsylvania railroad, one OF the best
equipped lines in the United States,
has decided to follow the example of
some Of the more progressive railways
in the west, and plant trees for Its
own consumption. 1t already has 3Oo,-
900 trees growing on It's right of way
and on waste lands belonging to the
company. The management now pro-
poses to go into the tree-growing bust
ness in earnest and the coming spring.
It is said, it will put out about a million
more trees.
The managers of this line Of railroad
have decided. it is stated, to meet the
pressing demand OF their corporation
for timber from their own reserves,
and they have figured 1T out that to do
this they must plant. upwards OF
million trees annually for the next
thirty years. A vast undertaking
truly. but it Is based on sound princi-
pies of economy.
It may also be Of interest to state
that the Pennsylvania road has Sc
lected the yellow locust. (robinia
pseudacacia) as best suited to it's pur-
pose. 1t is claimed that yellow locust
will outlast either white oak, yellow
pine or chestnut. The yellow locust
is one OF the most rapid growing OF
hardwoods, and is found from
Pennsylvania to Georgia, and from
Minnesota to the Indian Territory. 1t
is. moreover, closely grained, very hard
and heavy, and most durable In con-
tact with the soil, the claim having
been made that one locust tie Will out
last six of oak OF. chestnut.
What the Pennsylvania railroad has
been forced to do on large scale the
farmers should do OH smaller one.
Set the waste land with locusts, ca
talna or other rot-res,isting trees. The
fence post supply is becoming one of as
great Importance to the farmers as
That of ties to the railroads.

POOLING HAS ITS FAULTS.

1t would seem that the Washington
that legislation on the railway rate
question is about to be enacted.
Whether or not 1t can be accomplish
ed without conceding to the railways
the right to pool their freight earn
ings is yet to be seen. But even then
the problem will be only half solved.
An interstate commerce commission
with power to veto and rectify an UNI
reasonable rate will protect only the
interests of communities one against
another, or of classes OF industries.
The great evil of discriminating rates
in favor of one individual over his
competitor will not be affected.
For this purpose, the railways urge
the necessity of giving them the right
to pool. If all the roads should enter
into an agreement to pool the earnings
on all the freight hauled from Omaha
to Chicago and each road receive an
agreed percentage of the profits on the
whole business regardless Of the
amount hauled by it, the incentive to
give big shipper a rebate in order to
get his business would be destroyed.
No road would thus be so eager for
business as to cut under the published
tariff.
But reasonable as this seems in its
effect upon the rebate evil there are
very serious objections to pooling. For
instance it has been the demand OF
the shipper for better service and low
err rates that has compelled railroad
managers to reduce their grades,
strengthen their bridges, lengthen their
trains and enlarge their engines so as
to move the maximum of freight at q
minimum of cost. Take away the in
centive for business and we have de-
stroyed the incentive to improve the
transportation service OF the country.
If this does not follow as the effect
of pooling it must then be true that
the roads will still strive for business
in order to furnish a basis for an in
creased percentage of the POOLS profits
and then the old incentive to buy the
traffic of the big shipper with rebate
would still remain
If congress is going to do anything
for the people it should make one
move at a time. 1t will do no harm
to enlarge the powers of the railway
commission now without conceding
pooling or anything else. The rail
roads would still have an equal chanca
with the people in controlling the
commission and, judging from the in
fluence they now have in the politics
of almost every state in the union,
their investors should not fear any
panic by reason of what the COM
mission might do. When the secretary
Of commerce devises way to stop
rebates with the same effectiveness
that Cassatt's community of Interest,"
plan has done it the railroads can
actually thank government interfer-
ence for increased earnings.

THE THOUGHTFUL ATMOSPHERE.

when President Baldwin, of the
Tong Island, and u heavy stockholder
in the Pennsylvania railroads, died a
few days ago, editorial comment on
his death took on u unique color. HIS
death was universally regretted, not as
the loss of a factor in finance or the
demise of a notable captain of indus
try, but as the passing Of an altruist
and a. good man. Baldwin was clean,
80 clean that in the acquisition OF a
frafselfise thru su spected bribery by
a railroad in which Baldwin held large
interests the public cleared him by ac-
clamation Of completely or even know
ledge of the crooked business. 1t is
related of him that on on occasion ne
was asked If his business interests
would permit him to serve as chairman
on committee for the investigation
and suppression CT vice in his home
city. He replied that they would not
be permitted to interfere and that he
was ready for the committee work.
His money and more than his money
his personal energies, were devoted to
effort along altruis.tic lines. Many men
give money. Only u few give them
selves or a portion Of themselves. The
characteristics that appears to have
made Baldwin unique among captains
Of industry is the. acknowledged fact
that he was clean handed and gave Of
his time and wealth from a sense Of
the needs Of humanity. not because he
craved notoriety or because the fash
ion of the rich is giving or as salve
to an uneasy conscience. Baldwin
thought, felt and lived deeply. 1t is
a pity that this Life should be so dis
tinct and out of the ordinary, that it
should evoke universal comment.
One periodical suggests that Baldwin's
environment made him type; that
"the traditions of good citizenship are
more alive in Boston than in New
York" Without coubt this is true and
full Boston had its effect in the adjust
ment of Baldwin's character to the
many sided necessities Of mankind.
The true student Is an aItruist in the
DRY if not always in practice. The at
mosphere Of Boston breeds contempla-
ton and the thinker learns unselfsh-
ness.

true collegiate influence dominates. 1t
