ADVOCATES STATE OWNERSHIP
Lord Brassey Says Railways Should
Belong to Public.

Liverpool, misunderstanding at
a meeting Of the Associated Cham
bers of Commerce here Lord ,Brasset
appeared in a new role-that Of an
advocate of the State ownership OF
railroads. :
He referred to the growing demand
that the railroads should be managed
solely in the interests of the. public
service and not for the benefit Of the
shareholders, and declared that If q
change of policy were seriously pro.
posed there could hardly be a doubt
that it would receive the support of
Parliament.
In Continental Europe, Lord Bras.
sey added, where the railroads were
the property of the State, the re-
Quirements of the public were fully
considered and the results to the
Treasury were satisfactory, while in
Great Britain competition was car.
r4ed to excess, an immense amount OF
capital was wasted, shippers were dis
satisfied with the burdensome rates,
and the employees were disconnected
with their wages and hours of labor.

the other does not, analogous to the
selling and accounting departments of
the commercial concern. But the home
like the accounting division, is an es-
sential factor and, like it again, may
be the means of saving or losing
money as it is properly or improperly
conducted. / don't want to tire you.
but l am very anxious to get my ideas
into your noggin straight; then if you
don't like 'em you can do as you please
about 'em. You remember the story
about the white man and the Indian
who went turkey hunting and divided
the game in accordance with the white
mans proposition. l won't repeat the
story, but you will recollect that the
white man got all the turkeys Some
business partnerships and a great
many domestic partnerships are man
aged in this way. and that sort of thing
usually ends in dissolution. If you
succeed in life, you've got to play
square with your partner, and partic-
ularly so to the one with whom you've
made life contract, solemnly signed
and sealed in the presence of the rep
resentative of the Almighty. Give her
control of the home and let her under
stand that she is responsible for it's
management.
Responsibility makes character in
woman just as it does in a man, Let
her have fixed sum every month to
pay the household expenses as well as
to provide for her personal require
ments and allow her to expend the
money without question or interfer
ence. She'll come to you for advice
when she needs it. She'll come to YOU
for more money when she needs it. but
If the amount is rightly fixed she will
seldom have to do that. She will take
pride in keeping within her limit and
more than likely will save more money
than you WILL In the matter Of small
economies a woman can beat a man
every time, but she must have a per-
sonal interest in the saving, must feel
that it is hers without restriction. She
will probably spend most of it on YOU

as practicable, an equal division OF
labor, an equal division of responsible
ties and an equal division of financial
returns. The woman's labors and re-
sponsibilities should be within the
home: the mans. for the greater part.
outside of it. Success in her realm is
Of as much, il not more, Importance
to both than success in his. A business
failure is a small affair when COM
pared with a domestic failure. The
one is a mere matter of money; the
other affects body, mind and soul. The
wife should be supreme within her
sphere, but with that supremacy she
should accept the responsibilities that
belong to it and be held accountable
for results. On the other hand, she
should not interfere in his province,
but each should ask for and receive the
advice and help and encouragement Of
the other.
But you ask how can this theory be
put into practical application. BY ap-
plying ordinary business principles
principles which, regret to say, are
very seldom applied to domestic affairs
in the right way. The trouble is that
the average business man runs his
home as he would his store, consider
ing his wife as a simple item of ex-
pense-an expense which he pays in
an irregular way as her needs, express
ed or implied, seem to require, or in
the form Of fixed allowance. The
first method places her in the position
of a mendicant or pensioner; the Sec
ond improves her standing. but makes
her relation to him something in the
nature OF salaried employee. While
the latter Is far the better plan of the
two, giving the wife, as it does, a GER
tain independence impossible with the
former, it is not. believe, the true
relation, which should be one Of equal
partnership, as have said. "
From a Business View.
IL you were going into business with
another man as your partner, each hav-
ing the same interest, it Is probable
that you would divide the duties of
management so as to give each GER
tain definite responsibility. One of you
perhaps would have charge of the
finances and accounting. the other of
the buying and selling. Each in his re-
spective sphere would be supreme, but
the profits would be yours jointly to
be held in bulk, reinvested for your
Joint interest or equally divided. as
you might individually elect.
With proper modification the very
same system may be applied to the do
nestle partnership, the husband hold
ing the position Of senior, the wife that
Of junior partner. The husbands de-
partment is his business; the wife's is
the home. The one produces revenue;
Morris tribune., 1907-05-25

er, on the partnership idea is to place
as you may receive it, in common re-
ceptacle at home. Each of you should
have free and unquestioned access to
this fund, and whatever is left can be
deposited in the bank from time to
time. A memorandum book should be
kept with the money, and all withdraw
ais should be properly noted. The ad-
vantage of this system is its simplicity.
It's disadvantages arise from the dan
gers of loss by theft or otherwise and
from the fact that it lessons the indi-
vidual responsibility and the stimulus
to individual saving when compared
with the first mentioned plan But it's
good scheme nevertheless and vastly
superior to the mendicant or allowance
methods.
Don't Ensiave Yourself.
l never believed in the plan of giving
all ones salary to ones wife any more
than 1 believe it right for the husband
to keep all of it himself. In the first
place, it throws upon her burden
that properly belongs to him, in part at
least, and, in the second place, it makes
1t necessary for him to ask her for
what he needs, and too often he may
be required to explain his needs in de-
tail before he gets it. Some men are so
weak that they need restraint Of this
kind, and for such this method is COM
mendable, but for man with average
backbone it's humiliating to have to
ask his wife for money even If he has
voluntarily placed himself in durance.
It reverses the position of mendicancy
and is harder on man than woman,
because in her case it has the sanction
Of the ages. I believe in woman's in
dependence, but don't believe in re-
versing the traditional relations of the
sexes. 1t is possible to give your wife
freedom without enslaving yourself,
and certain amount of starch in your
spinal column is just as important IN
der the conditions have suggested as
in any other situation, domestic or 9th
