erS have come to the front with
equally interesting discoveries and OBJ
servatlons, but the one who has gone
farthest out of MS province, apparent
~, is Professor Thorstein Veblem. In
pamphlet which he calls "The The
DRY OF Business enterprise" Professor
Veblem tal-es occasion to criticise the
newspapers of America. Without ad-
hitting any exceptions, he says in SUBJ

dare not tell the truth if it is likely to

makers OF newspapers, doesNnot agree

AN IDLE INQUIRY.

Judging from the events which have
thus far transpired in the hearing be-
fore the interstate commerce commits
sion. the trouble might as well have
been avoided for all the good it will
do. AS far as one is able to see at this
time all the inquiry has brought out
nothing but realization of the fact
that was already we'll known: That
the law as it stands at present gives
the commerce commission no definite
authority over the private car lines
any more than it does over the rail-
ways. Whether the authority over the
private car business is less than that
over the railroads matters little or
none at all, for the commission has no
power to put it's findings into effect
Until the recommendations of Pres
ident Roosevelt with regard to railroad
rates are carried out the inquiries into
the business of railroad companies and
private car lines would be useless or
practically SO.
1t should not be the aim, and it is
the people of the country against the
railroads They are vitality es-
sential organizations of capital
anu nave p ElSlLS Ill tH6 general
organization of things. The aim of the
President and those who are trying to
work with him is to secure a plan of
government supervision of the railroad
companies that will prevent their af-
fording to some patrons better terms
than they give to others. 1t is not nee
essary to poison the public mind
against the railroads to bring about
this end. All that is wanted is justice
and it would be as wrong to err on
one side as on tie other. This ques-
ton, like all other great public ques-
tons, must be viewed from the stand
point of absolute fairness and the
public must not have it's judgment
dwarfed nor biased by a one-sided
treatment of the subject. The Ameri-
can government is too big an institu-
ton to err in SO big a matter and as
the people are the government they
cannot be too careful in their views.
They must remember that ''the
square deals the thing" 1t never
wrongs anyone.
