GIVES POWER WITHOUT REsPoN.
SlBILITY.

To substitute agents personally ir-
responsible for others whose welfare
depends on their individual efficiency
in the management of great bust
ness, is not a course that would be
favored by any merchant or manu-
facturer or producer possessed of COM
mon sense. Yet that is precisely
what is proposed by those who would
turn the control of the vast transpor-
tation interests of the United States
over to politically appoined commits
sioners. Railroad managers who are
found to be incompetent are removed.
The results Of bad railroad manage
ment are so conspicuous that it is
easy to find the cause and to apply
swift remedy when the incapable Of
fetal is the servant of corporation.
Every railroad manager is compelled
to be continually alert. To conserve
and to create business is his constant
aim and the measure of his RESPONSE.
bility is ever before him.
No personal penalty attends the
plumbers, negligence or general inef'
ficiency of the political employee in
high place. In the instance of an in
terstate commerce commission the in
solvency of a railroad caused by the
act of the commission, or disastrous
interference with the prosperity of
any part of the United States would
not bring dismissal to any commits
sioner or any number of commission
ers, nor would it affect commissioners
incomes in the least. Their standing
would not be impaired.
If a law shall be enacted that shall
enable the Interstate Commerce Com
missoners to Elk" or make railroad
rates in the United States, the prac-
teal result will be that such Com
missioners will control vast bust
ness in which they have no practical
experience, and will hold in their
hands, with no penalty to be attached
to their failures, the immediate future
not only of transportation, but also
OF all lines of American commerce
trade and production whose inter-
ests and whose location even are
bound up with traffic conditions that
are now arranged for their benefit.
No sane business man would sub
ject his own interests to such risks
as are here involved. 1t is hardly to
be supposed that the citizens of the
United States, collectively, desire that
the entire public prosperity shall be
thus jeopardized.

Document Was a Letter to
His Brother in This
City.
SEVERAL REQUESTS:
Writing Proven in Court BY
Several Witness
es.

A letter written by the late j.
Byron Nixon TO his brother, W. H.
Nixon, of this city, was probated as
the will of said deceased in the coun-
ty court Saturday. The letter was
written in Los Angeles, CAL, and
bears the date Of January 2, 1906.
Thos. H. Ennis, Joe P. P'Pool and
w. H. Nixon proved the writing to
be that Of the late J. B. Nixon. The
document stated in part that the
writer desired w. H. Nixon to have
all his personal property, jewelry,
clothing and money. That he had
on that date returned to the Mutual
Life Insurance Co., of New York, a
policy of $4,000 to have w. H.
Nixon made beneficiary. Also that
he had returned to the Equitable
Life Assurance Society, of New
York, policy of $4,000 for the
same purpose. That two policies
had been sent to the New York Life
Insurance Company, (amounts not
given, to have his sister, Eva
Nixon, made beneficiary. On these
policies it was stated that his sister
was to receive $120 a year as long as
she lives, but should she not live
twenty-five years, after his death,
the amount must be paid to some
one. Deceased had applied for a
policy in the New York Life In
.surance Company for $4,000, stating
that if same was granted land
die, want my brother, J. C. Nixon,
to have one-third of this policy,
brother Even Nixon one-third, and
brother Aaron's wife, Willie V.
TONNES, one-third." Then~the fol
lowing paragraph appears: This

The Pythian Knights.

The local lodge knights of Pythias
attended the services to men only at
the Methodist church Sunday night
in a body and the lineup was the
longest that has been seen in the
city for long time by any one
order. Each man in line wore a
beautiful carnation, either white,
red or pink, with the compliments
of their brother Knight, Mr.. T. l..
Metcalfe, who is one of the most
popular members of the order. At
the next meeting of the lodge a vote
of thanks will be extended Mr. Met
calfe for his thoughtful courtesy.

arrived at his house last Sunday af-
ternoon and has taken charge of ev-

that Gov. Beckham will offer a re-

Because Hopkins was old and friend
