Winning on the Derby.

The $4,000 which John w. Gates Is

be used as a governmental warrant for
not only controlling all roads which
are Interstate, but for controlling the
goods which may be transported over
those roads for Interstate commerce,
Iit Is well for the country at large TO
consider the revolutionary effect that
such change In the present Inter-
If the government has right to com
pei the state to maintain post roads,
then the government, under the power
of eminent domain, could seize any
state railroad and operate 1t as gov
eminent post road, on the same
theory the government could take the
state capitols for post-ofI1ccs and city
halls for substations, leaving a sl,orn
and pitiful remnant of authority to
the States themselves. This power
would also extend to the trolley lines
in the streets Of the cities md to
every agency by which mails are
transported. Certainly this inplica-
ton of the power granted by the post
extension by judicial construction
were to be attempted, the first safe
guard for the people Is to be found
IN the wisdom and ability of the judi
ciary ana the common sense Of the
public at large.
The Times-DIspatch sees no reason
to apprehend that the people Of Amer
lea desire any material extension IN
Federal authority, and the almost IN
variable history of our country has
shown that our Supreme Court pos
sessos that wisdom, patriotism and
wise temperance upon which its great
prestige has been 50 securely founded.
