New Rate.
Special to THE ARGUS.

New York, Aug. 19.-In a special
interview this morning Governor
Glenn, who is here in connection with
the railroad hearing before special mas
ter Montgomery. is reported as saying:
II believe the railway rate contro-
versy in a fair way Of settlement in a
manner entirely satisfactory to the
people Of North Carolina"
He stated emphatically that he favor
ed a reduction in rate even lower than
2 IA cents especially if the roads con-
tinued to resist the operation of the
law.
He stated that he has no patience
with the cry that the position North
Carolina and some other Southern
| States are taking in reducing rates will
drive capital seeking investment away.
He claims that he is known as the
industrial Governor" and would do
all he could to protect the railroads
corporate interests from unfairness.
"But the railways are against a
square deal', said Gov. Glenn land the
proposition is, it a road is making over
ten per cent. it can stand the reduction

tiers we're in a critical state, for / Ger.

GALVESSON'S EXAMPLE

Galveston seems to take delight in
new methods. It invented the COM
mission plan of ~governoring cities, and
it proceeded to put in successful prac-
tice its new theory. So we'll does the
plan fit American municipalities it is
spreading. II the supreme court Of
Tennessee had MOI legislated otherwise
Memphis would today be al peace un-
der q commission OF the Galveston
sort.
But Galveston does not rest content
on one victory. It has become an i'm
migration part, and the government is
building there an immigration station
immigrants were landed there, and
Mayor Lands went down to the land
ing and greeted the with .
speech of welcome. This speech was
duly translated 10 the h~omeseekers,
and their leader said in reply:
ave are overw iaelmed Ia the ruler
of the city should greet us. We have
never been spoken to by the officials OF
our own country except in terms OF
h~arshness, and. although we have
heard of the great land of freedom. it is
very hard to realize that we are per-
mitted to grasp the hand of the great
man. We will do all we can to make
good citizens"
A Russian Jew who knows nothing
of government except persecution
could not well escape establishment
when he is met by an address of vel
come delivered by the chief official in
the city where he lands. This act OF
| Mayor Lands will have an effect in
the depths of Darkest Russia. for let
ters will carry reports OF it there, and
in hat way more Immigrants will be
drawn southwark. Mayor Lands has
set a good example to other southern
cities to which immigrants are begin
ming to come.
IT the government keeps on bringing
rebate suits against Standard Oil it may
be glad enough to compromise on thirty
millions.
