STATE REGULATION.

! Railroads are necessary and con-
venlent institutions, but the cor
pOratious that build aud control
them are creatures of the States
which give them certain privileges
not enjoyed by the citizen, and
they ought to be amenable to State
laws and regulation. These cor
porations. however, refuse to rec
oguiZe this principle and assume
that the creature is greater than
the creator, aud that they are not
under any obligation to obey Il law
that lnterferes in the least with
their license to do rs they please
regardless of the rights of the pub
lie. 1t is this spirit that creates
all the prejudice that exists against
railroads-not against railroads as
an institution, but against their
management and methods,
State regulation is being resisted
by the railroads in every State
where laws have been enacted to
protect the public from extortion
aud other inconvenience; and the
Federal courts are resOrted to for
inJunctious against the enforce
ment Of these laws. The Federal
courts have lent themselves too
willingly to this method and have
certainly exceeded all reasonable
bounds, interfering with the rec
ognized law making powers of the
State on himsy eX parte claims of
the railroads that these laws are
confscatOry.
All the recent laws in this State
pertaining to the regulation or re-
strictiOn in any way of the rail
roads are in some form or others
in the Fedeaal courts on injunction
proceedings. The two.cent fare is
on a three months trial pending
further proceedings in the Kansas
CITY Federal Court. The maxi
mum freight laws are tied up with
injunction suits; and now the
Rock Island railroad, refusing to
pay fine for willfnl violation of q
plain provision Of the law requir-
ing certain passenger trains to stop
at certain places, applies to the
Federal court for restraining order
against the Prosecuting Attorney
to prevent him from taking steps
to collect the fine. This applica-
ton of the road to the Federal
court violates another law which
fOrfeits the license of any foreign
railroad corporation to do business
in the State when it removes "A suit
wherein citizens of the State are
interested from the State to the
Federal courts. Anticipating ac'
ton against it for this violation
the Rock Island at the same time
iortifes itself with an application
for Il second temporary injunction
restraining the Secretary of Stat,
from taking steps to revoke its Ii
censc to do business in the State.
Is it any wonder that the rail.
roads incur prejudice when the,

WASHINGTON, June 12.-On ac-
count of the present agitation on the
coast AOki, the Japanese amba ssador,
has indefinitely postponed his San
Francisco visit saying if he makes the
trip now his motives might be miscon-
strued and undue significance attached
to the visit.
IF the recent outbreak in San Fran
cisco be taken as a basis for interna-
tiOnal disturbances We may be COM
PEELED to have all labor troubles set
tied by the mikado," said former
Mayor Phelan of San Francisco today.
There is no outbreak or race war in
San Francisco. San Franciscans con-
slider it tempest in a teapot in Jap
anese politics. We solved the Chinese
problem and have partially solved the
Japanese question. The Japs must
not be given citizenship"
Phelan called on President Roose-
welt as chairman of the relief commit
tee and says half a million of the
earthquake funds is unexpended. He
said the Indictment on which Schmitz
is being tried is the weakest one

tempts were inspired by Haywood and
Meyer.
He had heard both Haywood and
Meyer say if Peabody was bumped
off" there were a thousand more just
as bad to take his place, but they in
sisted he should be put out of the way
for his past persecution of union men.
Orchard declared Meyer and Hay
wood went to Chicago in the summer
of 1905, their purpose being to form a
new organization to take the place of
the federation. When they came back
Pettibone suggested the killing Of
Sherman Bell.
Explaining the reason he did not
shoot Bell he said the latter had bad
dogs which made it impossible to ap-
proach the house. He said Pettibone
was with him at all times when he
went hunting for Bell.
The cross examination was monot-
| onous and long drawn out. 1t is not
likely Orchard will complete his tes-
timony before Saturday.
AS an instance it took 81 minutes
! and 1000 words to bring out the facts
connected with the purchase of a horse
and buggy by Pettibone which Orchard
alleges was given him to get away
with after killing Bell.
This afternoon Richardson is eX-
pectej to try to show by Orchard that
| the killing of Steunenberg was sug
gested by Jack Simpkins because the

negro troops.

times told him he wanted him to get
Steunenberg out of the way. Finally

met in Meyers office. The latter said
the Denver outrages must be stopped
and ordered Orchard to go to Cald-
we'll and kill S+eunenberg. He was
positive all three were present and
all cOunselled the killing. Meyer also
wanted John Neville put out of the
way because he knew too much about
the Independence matter. Neville, ac-
cording to Orchard, had demanded
$1,000 for keeping quiet so it was
| This afternoon Orchard swore abso-
lutely both Meyer and Haywood told
him he must kill Steunenberg. Petit
bone. he said, declared it would be
hard job to pull off in little coun-
| try town and thought they would bet
ter get some of their enemies in Den
yer first.
Haywood, the witness swore. was
most bitter against Steunenberg and
said as soon as the job was pulled off,
Orchard must go to Patterson. N. J.,
