Correspondence Morning Journal
Washington, Jan 26-.-The sensa-
tional announcement that members Of
the Philippine commission had been
speculating in Philippine lands that
would be benefited by the proposed
railroads has met with a prompt de-
nial from all the American members
OF the commission. Naturally all Of
the Filipino members of the commits
sloA, being residents of the islands
have real estate interests there. but
there is no evidence that any of them
have bought land recently In eXpecta-
tion Of railroad development The
state of affairs disclosed by these
avowals is natural and proper in clean
handed American officials Usually
there is a specific prohibition against
government officers trafflcking I'm any
thing where their official position
would give them an undue advantage.
There is a specific order in the army
against officers speculatng I'm Philip

position to influence values. Another
try Is against the members Of the re-
clamation service owning any lands
under the irrigation projects they are
constructing in the west The law Is
good I'm the one case and the custom
decidedly proper In the other on
cials have no right to deal in matters
where their position gives them the
advantage over other citizens. If they
do their interests necessarily bias their
judgment II may sometimes seem a
little hard for instance for low sal
aried official like an irrigation engl-
neer to be debarred from making an
honest dollar out of the work he has
in hand. But for a high salaried Off

stoop to such practices would be In

now that the matter has been brought
up. II might be well TO enact specific
law against any such practice in the
future. II would work no hardship on

on few officers who have more re-
spect for the legal than for the moral
code.
