MISSOURI, KANSAS ANDTExAs ARRANGEs

Kansas City, Mo-, Oct. 24.-It re
ported here on the best authority
that Missouri, Kansas and Texas en-
gineers have just completed an in
spection OF the line of the Louisiana
Railway and Navigation Company
between Shreveport and New Orleans
and that negotiations have been in
augurated between the management
of the two systems looking to the
perfection of trackage agreement by
which the Missouri, Kansas and Tex
as will operate trains into New Or
leans over the line OF the Louisiana
Railway and Navigation Company.
1t has been known for some time
that the Missouri, Kansas and Texas
was seeking an entrance into New
Orleans, and many rumors have been
afioat regarding the route or means
by which the entrance would be effect
ed. Some rumors have even gone go
far as to state that the Missouri,
Kansas and Texas would purchase
the Edenborn road. The perfection
Of the trackage arrangement, it ia
said, proved the most feasible and
desirable arrangement that could be
made, because, while it gave the Mis-
souri,, Kansas and Texas an entrance
into New Orleans, it also gave the
Louisiana Railway and Navigation
Company a most desirable arrange
ment whereby it could handle traffic
on the most satisfactory terms from
New Orleans to this great distribute
ing point, and from here to New

As a clinchcr to his argument
that the court review feature of the
packing house inspection bill must
be Cut out, President Roosevelt
cited the decision of Judge Hum
phrey in the packing house indict-
ment cases. True, the decision of
Judge Humphrey was bald
travesty on justice, yet it followed
N the wake OF declaration of the
President in the Paul Morton mat
ter, that the corporation and not
the individual should be punished

At last Oklahoma becomes n
State, linked with its twin sister
Indian Territory. Speaker Can
non was forced by public opinion
and the firm stand taken by the
Senate to back down from his
stubborn position to compel the
admission of Arizona and New
Mexico as a single State in the
same measure, and the House last
Thursday passed the statehood
bill with the Senate amendment.
This amendment gives the latter
two territories the privilege of vot'
ing on the question as to whether
they shall be doubled up into one
State. The President has signed
the bill admitting Oklahoma and
Indian territory as one State, and
that question is settled. Each of
these territories was entitled to
separate statehood, but the Re-
publican policy was to unite them
and also Arizona and New Mexico
in order to deprive the growing
West of its rightful representation

We don't know but what Con-
gresham Wadsworth's stand, that
the government instead of the
packing house should pay the gov
eminent inspectors of their insti.
buttons, is more than half right if
impartial inspection is the object
aimed at, If the inspectors, who
are government officers, are to
look to the packing houses or beef
trusts for their fees. there is such
perversity and so much weakness
in human nature, that there is
great danger that they may develop
too intimate a relation with and
leniency towards the institutions
from which they draw their pay.

to it, and President Roosevelt says
that must come out" In his
letter to Chairman Wadsworth he
says You would make any Judge
whom the packers chose to desig-
nate, and not the experts of the
Department Of Agriculture, the
man to decide on any question of
any kind which the packers thought
it worth while to dispute The
President is right in that, but the

review in the rate bill, and he

President Roosevelt has made an.
other exhibition of his penchaut fur
speaking iuadyisedly, hastily.
without due consideration or kuowl-
edge of what he is talking about.
Last week he addressed a letter to
Chairman Wadsworth of the House
Committee on Agriculture, which
had under consideration the pack
ing house inspection bill. He
criticized severely the bill as
amended and changed by the com
mIttee. saying the more | investi-
gate the bill the worse | find it /:
every change is for the worse
there is no provision for making
plants accessible at all hours, and
conveying a hint that he would
veto the bill if passed as the com
mittee bad changed it. Mr.. Wads.
worth replied to the President in Il
vein "A little more singing than n
Republican Congressman is wont
to address a Republican President,
and clearly pointed out to the lat
ter that he was mistaken in saying
that in the bill there is no pro-
vision for making plants accessible
at all hours. Thus caught the
President crd"avored to extricate
himself from his hasty surface
criticism by saying that he had
not read the document which he so
freely criticised, but that Senator
Beverage of Indiana had told him
that it had not contained any such
provision, Now, isn't that a nice
pickle for the President TO place
himself in; to undertake 10 crit
else a piece of proposed legislation
without heving read it and gone
over it carefully, studying each
specific point of which it treated,
but taking the word Of somebody
else as to what the document treat
ed or did not treat2 But isn't that
just like the spectacular, emotional
Roosevelt? \ good motto for him
to adopt is Think, before You
speak If he had done this he
probably wouldn't have blurted
out that Senator Tiliman S revela-
ton of ex-senator Chandler's
statement OF what the President
told him in an interview over the
rate bill was a "a deliberate and
malicious falsehood," only to have
the question of veracity bound
back with force on himself. And

monstrous falsehood," and that
