AN orER-pAssroNArE DENIAL.

The passion and vehemence with
which Vice President Thayer of the
Pennsylvania Railway company refers
to the national administration in max
ing his denial that that road has
granted rebates or otherwise violated
law in dealing with Standard Oil are
not warranted. II the fact be as he
solemnly and explicitly declares, as
of his personal knowledge, that the
Pennsylvania road has not for yelrs
granted either to the Oil or the
Sugar trust any concession, open or
secret. from the lawful tariffs available
to all shippers on equal terms, it has
nothing to fear, but on the contrary
everything to hope, from a thorough
public ascertainment OF the facts. In
that event the only result of any prose-
cution would be the vindication OF
the road, which is one of the greatest
transportation companies of the coun-
try.
Broadly speaking. If it we're true
that the railroads generally have been
and are observing the Elkins and anti
trust laws and not giving secret re-
bates or equivalent Illegal discrimina-
lions to favored shippers, they ought
by all means to welcome opportunity
TO demonstrate the truth as a matter
of official record Certainly the con-
trary, if 1t exists, should be known,
prosecuted and stopped,
Nothing better could happen in the
interest of those who are engaged in
the management of transportation
than to have the full light OF pub
licity shine through the whole subject.
If they will put themselves at the
standpoint of the general public they
can hardly wonder at the popular be-
lief and suspicion as to the prevalence
of evasions and violations of the laws
against determinations and trade con-
spiracies. Unless the facts are off,
! cially ascertained and certified such
suspicion will linger long and harm
fully, even after a lawful status in
fact exists throughout the transporta-
! ton world
One of the best and most whole
some things that can come out Of all
! this contest will be the removal OF
suspicion, much of it even now, per-
haps, unwarranted, and affording
through knowledge of the facts, basis
! Of security for all interests.

CAUSE OF sAN FRANCISCO LOSS.

Hon. John P. Irish OF Oakland, Cal,
who is widely known in the country
as a man Of fine intelligence and sound
judgment, in a communication to the
press strongly corroborates the grow
ing impression that the fire damage
at San Francisco was mainly due to
preventable causes. His personal OBJ
servation is to the same effect as that
of other competent men on the ground
who investigated the matter promptly
and carefully, that comparatively small
loss either OF property or of life was
caused solely by the earthquake, the
damage from which could have been
repaired in a few weeks. 1t was al
most exclusively inflicted on old build
ings Of faulty foundation or construc-
ton.
This is the third general confagra-
ton which has destroyed San Fran
cisco. the two previous ones having
no connection with earthquake. The
fatal error, as Mr.. Irish shows, has
been in adhering to the old plan, or
lack of plan, on which the city orig
inally grew up. There we're in the
center of danger no wide avenues and
plazas to act as fire guards, water
protection was VIGOROUSLY inadequate
and the precautions as to buildings
usual in progressive cities were want
1,Nl
open to destruction by fire, and it is
now recognized that disaster was only
a question of time. ANY earthquake
sufficient TO shake down old or i'll
constructed Buildings was sure to pre-
cipitate 1t.
In line with what Mr.. Irish says the
San Francisco newspapers and insur-
ance journals are accommodating a
great amount OF information demon
strating how slight was the direct
earthquake injury especially to steel
structures, OF which the Spreckles
building. S25 feet high on base sew
enty-fve feet square. is an illustra-
ton. The printing machinery of the
San Francisco Call, which occupied
part of il, finished running of the
morning edition after the shock was
sustained. Even the fire which came
later destroyed only wood and other
combustible materials used in build
ings OF this type, leaving the walls
plumb and unframed and the interiors
so that they will soon be restored
The facts already reliably known
prove conclusively that the direct
earthquake effect has been greatly ex-

Governor Cummins' Campaign.

Philadelphia Record.
Governor Cummins of Iowa Is making good
progress. Secretary Shaw has imagined two
or three times that he had the governor
downed, but he was quite mistaken. The
governor is out for a third term, and he has
gathered in three county delegations for
every one his opponents have secured. All
counties that he controls adopt resolutions
denouncing Secretary Shaw and Senator Ell
kins for meddling with the politics OF the
state. If Cummins shall control the state
convention 1t will be useless for Shaw to
ask its endorsement of him as presiden-
tial candidate, and the stand pat" con-
gressmen from Iowa will be in danger

Philadelphia Record.

PhlIadeIphia Record.
The most striking instance of the adop-
tion of American ideas is the announce
ment that at the approaching German
army maneuvers the cavalry will initiate
United states army methods, fighting on
foot. European military experts have said
that we had no cavalry. and never did
have; that our mounted troops were
mounted infantry 1t is true that our
mounted troops have always preferred the
carbine and the revolver to the sword, and,
therefore, have generally fought on foot.
But in the civil war there was actual
cavalry fighting in the European sense
of the term. But now our cavalry has
the satisfaction OF seeing even German
mounted troops initiate its operations.

THAT REMINDS Us OF 4 STORY

Had The Bee opposed Benson It could
have said, See what | did with my little
singer" but perhaps If The Bee had OPP
posed Benson he would have been elected
Who knOws.-Fremont Tribune.
That reminds us of a story. Not
many years ago when the Third Ne
braska district was strongly populist
the pins were set up to give Hon. Ross
Hammond, editor of the Fremont Trib-
une, a chance to redeem it to repub-
licanism. Edward Rosewater was
called east shortly before the nomina-
ting convention, but left directions that
The Pee. despite Mr.. Hammond's per-
sonal hostility previously manifested,
should do nothing to obstruct Mr.
Hammond's success. Shortly after the
nomination Mr.. Hammond walked into
The Bee office, saying:
Il happened to be in town and
thought | would come in to tell you
that l appreciate the kind treatment
have received at the hands of The
Bee"
I'VE were not aware The Bee had
said anything about your candidacy as
yet" was the reply.
That's just it," said Mr.. Hammond,
''it's what you have refrained from
saying"
We'll, Mr. Hammond, you and your
paper have constantly asserted that the
best thing for a candidate, If he wants
to be elected, is to have The Bees open
opposition. We want to help you for
congress as much as we can and are
willing to do it either way. just as you
prefer"
'Oh," exclaimed Mr.. Hammond, 1T
makes a difference when you are run
ming yourself"
It might be added that The Bee sup
ported Mr.. Hammond in that campaign
and its editor, Edward Rosewater,
made one or two speeches for him in
his district.

aggerated in early newspaper reports,
as was natural under the circum-
stances. and that by far the most of
the enormous aggregate loss directly
from earthquake and indirectly from
fire could have been prevented by
proper construction and rational
ground plan for the city. The lesson,
it is said will not be lost in rebuilding
San Francisco. but It ought also be
equally warming to all other cities.
