A NATIONAL HEROINE.

The sympathy of the nation will be
evoked by the news that the widow
of President Mckinley has been strick-
en- with paralysis and that her life is
imperiled by the visitation. The life
of this lady has before this evoked
the sentiment of the nation. The at
tachment between her and her hus-
band, the weak health which she en-
dured during his career as congress
man and president, the devotion with
which from her couch she upheld him
in his public work, and finally the
tragic close of their union, have ap-
peared to idealize the American con-
ception of conjugal love and sym
patty and made her a heroine of the
invalid's couch. Mrs. McKinley's ILL
ness, and in view of her frail ply
sique its serious aspects, will be
watched by the nation with deep in
terest and regret.

THE WHEAT STEAL.

The vigorous answer to the Duluth
board of trade by w. ]. Hawk, of
Buffalo, to it's appeal for the grain
trade of the North Dakota farmers,
even in spite of the fact that sys-
TEN of inspection robbery has been
carried on at that terminal for years,
deserves the careful attention Of every
wheat grower in the northwest.
There can be no question about
the. merits of the case. Mr.. Hawks
article, which was published in Sat
urday's Evening Times, shows con-
dition which deprives the farmers Of
this state of thousands of dollars ev-
cry, year, and he defies the Duluth
board of trade to contradict his state
ments,> This kind of defiance is often
mere bluff, but in this instance it
amounts to an Indictment against the
Duluth grain inspection, and If there
was no truth in the charges that
city would, in sheer self-defense, be
forced to enter a vigorous denial.
But It will never do SO.
It is difficult to point out the rem
edy for the evils which Mr.. Hawk
discusses. except the ownership OF
the terminal elevators by the wheat
growers themselves. II this condition

of 1865 claims numbering $50 and
amounting to $110,731.49 we're paid.
This shows that there has been an
increase OF 25h per cent In the num-
Der OF people injured during the past
six months. and it also shows that the
travelling men, or at least the MEM
hers OF the U. C. T.. are insuring more
heavily.
"If the same ratio is kept up
throughout the year." the circular
continues, lit would mean an average
of one out of every sixteen of our
members would meet accidental in
jury, or death during the year."
That these statements demonstat-
ing the value of insurance have made
deep impression upon the travelling
men is proved by the fact that the
call for the payment of assessments
for the indemnity fund is being re-
sponded to with much greater prompt
ness.
The evening times. [volume] (Grand Forks, N.D.) 1906-1914, 1907-05-27

can be realized the farmers should
be able to-and, in fact, would-secure
the proper grading of their wheat.
They would not be compelled to ship
No. hard and have it graded as No.
1 northern, or No. 1 northern and
have it graded as No. 9.
If the farmers controlled the ter
minal elevators, and then pooled their
crops and stayed together-as they
plan to do under the American Soci-
ETY. of Equity-they would be outside
the power of the terminal wheat ring.
If the selling market from the ter
minals was such that the grades could
be lowered, the price of the lower
grades could be advanced to meet the
market demand. This is, in principle,
what is done. The grades are mixed and
raised so that what was purchased of
the farmers for No. northern is sold
as No. 1 northern, or, in some cases,
No. hard. This is the process be-
hind which the robbery of the wheat
growers has been conducted.
The aroused condition of the public
mind and the ruinous loss which
threatens the Minnesota cities, should
the terminal trade be diverted else
where, is forcing the boards of trade
to give the matter attention. But moth
ing short of ownership by the farmers
will effectually remedy the evil

HOSTILITY TO RAILROADS.

There is a lot of cheap talk about
the prevailing hostility to railroads"
1t gets its deceptive start among rail-
road managers, and it does no little
harm in some circles where phrase
is worth more than a thought.
There is not any hostility to rail-
roads in this country. There might
as we'll be hostility to terra firma, or
to the attraction of gravitation, or to
the production of wheat. The rail-
road has become fundamental and
essential to our scheme of living.
Stop the railroads and you starve the
cities and destroy modern civiliza-
ton. The passengers in a vessel at
sea are not hostile to the ship; she
is what keeps them alive. If there
is any hostility, it is against the
officers.
So, in this so-called railroad prob
lem, the hostility that has developed
is against those who have so managed
the roads so as to provoke the wrath
of country. 1t strikes us as diff
cult proposition to argue that there
could be so many hostile demonstra-
lions and no foundation for them.
There is real reason, and every
thinking person knows it. Such a re-
port as was published recently by
Herbert Knox Smith, man person
ally known as level-headed and judi
cious, shows how the trust rested in
railroad managers has always been
abused. 1t is that sort of thing that
has caused the feeling. Power is
dangerous article for any mortal man
to exercise. Most of us want it and
few, indeed, know how to use it wisely
and justly
The railroad managers have used
it for speculative purposes in Wall
street, and for the advancement of
one interest and the destruction of an
other throughout the country. For
getting that their roads are semi-pub-
lie, they have conducted them as per-
sonal operations. The financial inter-
ests of this great nation center in
the speculation in railroad securities
in New York. Whether John Smith
in the grocery business and John
Jones in the farming business can
borrow needed capital at reasonable
rates depends on how much the banks
have tied themselves up with the gi-
gantic schemes of railroad manip-
ulators. The business of railroads is
primarily to carry passengers and
freight for the benefit of the public.
No individual was ever compelled to
invest in them. That side of the pic
ture is only incidental. The monstrous
manipulations Of Mr.. Hartman that
have SO tangled up the situation today
have nothing to do with transporta-
ton; they are details Of banking and
speculation. But they are, from the
dollar point of view, operations of
'his" railroads.
BY and by, perhaps, the railroads
will be conducted according to the
purpose for which they were char
tered. When that comes, the kickers
will be the gambling element whose
opportunity to exploit the public for
personal advantage will have gone
with the improvement of commercial
morality.

Some complaint has been made
about the travelling men taking such
a prominent part in the agitation for
new hotel and railroad laws, but when
it is considered that the travelling man
spends the greater part Of his life in
hotels and on the road and is more
subject to the discomforts and dangers
attending travelling than anyone else,
it is not surprising that he should be
particularly interested in all matters
pertaining to railroads and hotels,
and should endeavor to secure re-
