The Control OF Coal Lands.

Badger state Banner,
When Senator La Toilette tripped up
the proposition for the sale of the Ind
ian lands in the Indian territory for a
manipulated price to probable favored
interests and forced withdrawal of the
sale clause, it was supposed that would
be the end Of the matter, for the pres
ent at least, but it came back again,
through the conference committee, IN
the form of forty-year lease, which is
a practical sale SO far as the mineral
value Of the lands is concerned, and 1T
had no provision to prevent the rail
roads from getting control OF the lands
and engaging in the coal mining bust
ness, which was feature of special
objection in the original proposition
Mr.. La Toilette was not caught mapping
however. He put in strenuous object
ion and the proposition goes back to the
conference committee. II may pass yet
in the form desired by the railroad mag
mates. but we venture the assertion that
if il does the senators will go on record
upon it. in the full glare of the lime
light

Economic Power OF The Railroads.

Aside from the unfailing production
of foodstuifs in sufficient quantities to
supply our own people at reasonable
prices, the largest economic concern of
the United States today is that just and
stable conditions shall exist for the
TRANSFORMATION of the vast agricultural
surplus of the Middle West to the mar
kets of Europe. This matter is of vital
Importance to many more people than
one might at first thought suppose. 1t
involves prosperity or the lack of it on
the part of very large majority of the
forty millions who live between the
Alleghanies and the Rockies; it affects
all of the ports of the country through
which produce passes, ought normal
w to pass, on its way to the foreign
market. and it goes far toward deter
mining the cost of food supplies in
Europe. and consequently the standard
Of life Of the consuming masses.
The maintenance of natural, fair and
stable conditions for foreign commerce
depends. of course, upon variety of
things notably upon the preservation
of international peace. upon tariff regu-
lation. and upon the ratio of supply and
demand These are the factors chiefly,
which determine the amount Of our
foreign trade and the countries among
which it is distributed. In addition
there is the multifold railroad problem,
affecting the amount in no small degree,
but in a much more important way in
fuencing the routes Of trade and fixing
the geography of our commercial SUI
premacy. 1t is the railroads THAT make
and unmake agricultural districts, in
land cities and shipping ports. II is
they that have il in their power by
their rivalries and manipuations Of
rates TO condemn to stagnation vast sec
lions Of the country which have enjoyed
commercial vigor, TO force into prosper
ity others which have been conspicuous

Golfers Weekly, April7
The report assails our ears that never
again shall the honeyed voice of Wis
consin's collector and statesman be
heard explaining the advantages of con-
tributng to the fund for electing Re-
publicans to congress. To Babcock and
his friends, if such there be- this report
is sad, but our stony nature is untouch-
ed, and we go dry-eyed about our daily
work. Babcock was part of an order
that is passing. His ethics were INSULT
cient, and the world needs different
men. His election to the Down-and-Out
Club was deserved, for his career upon
this earth has been an error. Long

concrete alluring arguments, corpora

The Situation at Zion.

Voliva's denunciation of Dowie Sun
day was eloquent and sweeping; it was
applauded by the crowded tabernacle of
dwellers in Zion; but what will happen
wnen Dowie comes back? The same Vol
iva who now denounces Dowie 50 glibly
is on record with words of reverence for
the prophet" dated as recently as last
November. Voliva is voluble scold, but
he will find it hard to Guido Dowie at
that game and if Dowie can get his
former followers to believe his yarn
that he has ten million dollars at com
mand, wherewith to butress the bust
ness bulwarks of Zion, they will quickly
depose the would-be leader who has
sprung up in the absence Of Elijah
Moses. Zion will afford an interesting
spectacle to psychologists during the
next few days.

declares that recovery is possible and
recommends prosecution against not

also the stock brokers, mining promot-
ers and relatives who have received

no doubt In the mind OF any member
OF the board that prosecution is feast
bic and should be started at once.
Judge Mccullough will conduct the
prosecution. He viii decide the meth
cd OF procedure against the out-of-

er stolen property or TO recover money
under the gambling act He will give
an opinion on the banks liability and
he will probably decide finally whether
