FRIDAY, APRIL 90, 1906.

Mr.. Roosevelt has made another dis
limitation of vast accumulation of prop
erty in few hands. In commenting up
on the speech of Senator McCumber, of
North Dakota, the Register in its issue
of April g. said
1.-THE people are right in their instincts
that, this enormously unequal distribu-
ton of wealth, which calls so loudly for
remedy, connects very largely with the
maadministration of the railroads of the
country. When they have remedied this,
they will at least have made a start in
the right direction, and will be even
more ready to correct other evils 1t IS
the first step that counts. A thing well
begun is half done.
The demand for government control
of railroads is the usual demand for law
to restrain the selfish propensities of
men in this case to see that the great
transportation facilities of the country,
created by the State for the benefit of
the State, deal fairly with all shippers,
the smallest equally with the largest.
IF we do this, evils which seem to
threaten us-the massing of great wealth
in few hands, that comes not from I'M
equal efforts but from unfair opportunity,
and is therefore in the nature of stolen
goods-will be, largely at least, stopped.
but whether we want to transfer the
rate making power TO government COM
mission, or not; that is whether we have
any great confidence in the ultimate sue
cess of such commission: it is unques-
tionably the only thing that offers at
this time. And as the great majority
of the people are agreed that something
must be done, Mr.. McCumber's prophecy
though not favoring it, is doubtless cor
rect-this will be done; and whatever
further adjustments to the business con-
ditions of the country may be called for,
will follow"
The following are the parts of the
Presidents address, at the occasion of
the laying of the corner stone of the
new office building of the House of Rep
resentatives Friday at Washington,
pertinent to this subject, as sent to the
New York Herald by its Washington
correspondent, and published in Satur-
days issue.
The President is again moving on the
right lines, and again we believe public
opinion with overwhelming force and
regardless of party will sustain him
The American people have had object
lessons enough of the evils of this vast
accumulation of wealth into compare.
lively few hands, and with strong, and
we believe unhealthy tendency toward
certain large centres of population. Ant
in their might they have begun to move
for its correction. Always at such times

public sentiment, and usually one ade
quate to the occasion; perhaps always
when the occasion is ripe. For the man

YOCUM AT RATION.
Checked In As Santa Fe Railway
Agent In the Gate City.
Today.

l.. c. Yocum, who was station agent
for the Santa Fe Railway In this city
for four months and who was relieved
In December last by Agent s. H. Lutz,
has arrived in Ration and yesterday
was checked In as agent at that point.
Mr.. Yocum has been in the service
of the Santa Fe Railway system in sta
ton work and as station agent over
twenty years and is considered one
of the most reliable and most compe-
tent agents in the service. During his
tour of duty here he gained the conf
idence and good will Of the business
community and served satisfactorily
in every way.
He understands his business fully
and has a knack of becoming popular
with business men, patrons OF the
road and people generally. His trans
fer to Ration was considered by the
management as a promotion, as it Is a
harder post and a more busy station
than this city.
The New Mexican is convinced that
Mr.. Yocum will give thorough satis'
faction to all concerned in his new
station and cheerfully commends him
TO the business community and the
good people Of Ration generally. So
cially Mr.. and Mrs. Yocum were very
pleasant and agreeable people and will
be welcome addition to the society
circles Of the Gate City.

me most was the New Mexico Military

Colonel Wilson and his able corps Of
instructors. I had the pleasure of wit

which is another evidence Of the good
reputation OF the institution. Every
