The Fight Over Rate Law Begun

The Fright Over Rate Law Begun
Governor Swanson and Attorney
General Anderson have begun the
fight to force the railroads to OBJ
serve the act of the General As
sembly and to provide for two cent
passenger rate on roads in this
State, says the Lynchburg News.
The Attorney General has obtained
an order from the commission to
direct the railroads to show cause
July IS why they should not be
fined for fyilure to comply with the
provisions of the act Of the General
Assembly requiring them to place
tickets on sale.
TIE railroads treated the act
with absolute indifference. Attor-
neys for the roads contend that the
General Assembly has no right to
name rates, that the Corporation
Comm isslon is charged with that
duty. On the other hand, these
same roads are now engaged il n
deadly struggle to prevent the
commission from prescribing
freight rates.
1t is an open secret that the
railroads are going to the Supreme
Court of the United States in the
matter of the powers and rights Of
the commission. The commission,
under the clause of the constitution
which deals with the duties and
powers Of that body, exercises
judicial, legislative and executive
powers. There is section Of the
constitution viii, h declares that
he three branches of government
shall be kept separate and distinct,
Except provided" and then 1t is
silent as to comforting all these
powers on the commission. That
is the point which the railroads
will hold is contrary to the pro-
visions of the constitution, and it
is on this point that the matter
will be taken for review by the
courts.

The Real Race Suicide Question
Presented

The movement to suppress child
labor is not q problem in human pity
1T is something larger aid more ser.
ious than that. 1t lie an attempt to
rescue the race from deterioration.
Society is menaced by q system in in
dustry tnat reduces wages, throws men
into ldleness, dissolves the home into
its constituent parts and lays on each
member the struggle for existence.
1t is a glory OF our modern Industry
that 1t ever tends to lift the heavier
burdens from human shoulders, laying
them upon shoulders of iron and steel.
But this tendency is not all glory. 1t
also explains the ever-increasing de-
mand for cheap child labor. The ig-
norant, the weak. the inefficient. the
little children, can often probably re-
place the stalwert man, and the wife
and child enter the factory, not al ways
to assist the father in Gaming e liveli-
hood, but oftener to compete with him
and drag his wages down. This revo-
luton Ia the problem Of wage-earning
tends to reduce individual wages from
an amount sufficient to maintain a
family as the unit in society to an
amount sufficient only to maintain an
individual as the unit. Thus we are
developing that exaggerated individual
ism which destroys even the mutual
interdependence OF the home and hurls
into the face Of the baby that ancient
edict-"He that will not work, neither
shall he eatp'
That many serious minded laboring
people look with alarm upon this
growing tendency to adapt the factory
to the size and ability of the little
child, is evident from the grow ing re-
luctance 81 men whose trades are bsing
captured by ignorant and inefficient
child labor to bring offspring into
world which cannot promise life OF

hard labor. Here is the real danger of

condemned by President Roosevelt; for
while the man of virtue and strength
Is deferred from propagating his
kind because of the jeopardy in which
his children would stand, the vicious
and ignorant, the physically unfit end
the discouraged are not deferred by
such consideration, but, regardless OF
consequences, continue to propagate
and swell the proportion of those who
will be from birth to death heavy
