"The Legislative Club" is the name
OF the new organization that has been
formed by the country members. That

ization is generally believed. One of
the objects of this organization is to
support the good roads legislation. A
great many bills for the Improvement
of the highways of the state have been
presented, some of which are good
and some that may be considered ques-
tionable but all have the same end in
view--the improvement of Pennsylva.
MAS highways. 1t is the intention of
those prominent in the good roads
movement to get together and from
the bills that have been introduced
get up some sort of measure that will
bring the required results. The Legis-
lative Club will take an active part in
the framing of this legislation.
All the newspaper publishers of the
state are to be invited to appear be
fore the house judiciary general com
mittee to give their views regarding
the bill repoaling the Salus-Grady libel
law, better known as the "press muz-
zler." There is to be a full and free
discussion of the question and the
prospects are that the mulzler will
be laid to rest. great many legisla-
tors have zone on record as favoring
the repeal Of the law. 1t was passed
for the purpose Of "jollying'' former

4 MOVE IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION.

Representative Lee has introduced
into the legislature a bill which is a
move in the right direction. 1t takes
the form of an amendment to the
Omaha charter and provides that
members of the Board of Fire and Po-
lice Commissioners shall not be eligi-
BILE to any other elective or appointive
Office under the laws of the state dur
ing the term for which they are serv-
ing.
Omaha's recent experience with
members of the police board using
their official positions to secure other
Offices re-enforces the necessity of put
ting a damper on such political activ-
ity. The very purpose of creating
separate and distinct board to have
charge of our fire and police depart
ments was to divorce them from poll
tics. Each member of the board is
even now required to take a solemn
oath that in making appointments,
promotions and removals he will not
be governed by political considera-
lions, but only by the welfare and eff
cheney of the departments. The law,
however, up to this time has left the
police commissioners themselves free
to go into politics and to employ all
their prestige and power to force those
under police surveillance to support
them for Office or to contribute money
to their campaigns.
We have had both democratic and
republican offenders against the intru-
sion of politics into the police board
and it is high time to put stop to It,
II the bill proposed by Representative
Lee is enacted every man who accepts
position on the police board here
after will have to put his political am
billions aside and will be much freer
to give us an impartial business adj
ministration of the police and fire de-
partments. With the police commits
sioners themselves out of personal
politics, it will devolve upon them to
keep their subordinates in the police
and fire departments likewise out of
politics, and these subordinates when
admonished to cease their political ac-
tivity will no longer be able to justify
themselves by pointing to examples
set by the police commissioners who
are over them.

GRAPHING WITH THE OIL TRUST.

The Standard Oil combine must by
this time begin 10 realize what it is
to antagonize an aroused people. In
dictments for rebate violations in
single federal judicial district contain
ing counts. the full penalties for which
in case of conviction aggregate $780,
10000 fines, are now followed by in
dictments in single county in
another state as a conspiracy against
trade, whereof conviction would make
possible fines aggregating s5S,00O,-
900. In the prosecutions in these two
small jurisdictions, the one national
and the other state, the courts, too,
have already overruled the technical
and formal pleas in which the trust
has sought to enmesh and befog the
real Issue of its guilt.
Thus, serious as the situation al
ready is for this over-swollen trust. so
long triumphant over individual and
sporadic resistance, only the little
finger of public authority has as yet
been laid upon 1t. The mighty powers
of two score great states remain to be
marshaled and hurled against IL. Back
OF them is the portentous force of the
national government.
The Oil trust was indeed a formid-
able conspiracy. especially when pub
lie authority slept and the people
themselves failed to realize their po-
tency. But the situation is now ut
terly different, and the trust is find
ing what 1t is to be up against ma
ton in arms.

nm spoKANE RIrr cAsE.


The case OF the shipping interests of
Spokane, now being heard by the In
terstate Commerce commission, is one
of far-reaching Importance, involving
the principles on which the reasona-
bleness of railroad rates is to be de-
termined when water competition is
involved. The issue is made vital and
acute by the situation of Spokane, 400
miles from the ocean and competing
as distributing point with the Puget
Sound ports. Spokane, of course, de-
pending on railroads alone.
The circumstances raise in extreme
form the question of adjustment of
rail to water rates which has been
one of the most vexed questions since
rails became a factor in transporta-
ton. The real difficulty did not arise
originally as to territory Immediately
adjacent or convenient to water, be-
cause It would be served at the water
rate whether the iron roads met it or
not and, practically, there was no dis
territory If the water rate was met In
water rate territory. 1t wasso of course,
the policy of the roads to meet such
competition, but perplexities and COM
plicstions multiplied with the extern
sion of railroads and the development
( throughout the country of competing
market and jobbing cities, some with
and others without water transporta-
/ ton. .........
The original interstate commerce law
of 1887 left the whole question open by
providing for exception from the long
and short haul limit on rate discrimi-
nations under "dissimilar conditions"
water competition being meant as the
chief of such conditions. Nor in all
the adjudications of the commission
since that law was passed have the
rate fixing principles under such con-
ditions been fixed and their definition
would indeed have been futile before
the new law conferred on the commits
sion power to fix and enforce rates
But with that power the commission
is now to pass conclusively on the
question, not only as to through rate
from the east to Spokane identical
with the through rate to Seattle, .40C
miles further west. plus the local rate
from Seattle back to Spokane, but also
as to what is reasonable in the place
of the impugned rate. -
A more radical test of the new pow
ers of the commission, as we'll as of til
capacity to dispose thoroughly and
satisfactorily of the deepest transpor
tation problems. can hardly be imag
ined. For the issue is far more pro
found than mere administrative and
fiscal matters that are involved, diff
cult as they alone are, reaching dowr
to the fundamentals of trade and in
dustrial competition among great com
munities, and affecting conflicting in
terests of consumption. production anC
exchange which are certain to resor
TO the courts for final decision, what
ever the commission may do.

RAILROAD MEMS HOURS.
Important Features of the Bill Passed
by the Senate.
Chicago Tribune


The passage of the LaFollette bill by
the senate is a natural consequence of the
numerous railroad wrecks of the last few
weeks. The fact presented by Senator La
Toilette that in twenty out of the last
twenty-one wrecks the employees concerned
had been on duty longer than regular time
contributed to the success of the bill AL
though 1t is not claimed that overwork
was responsible in every case for the loss
of life, 1t was probably a contributory
cause in more cases than those in which 1t
was directly and solely responsible Men
who are exhausted by overwork, especially
If 1t is not an infrequent occurrence, are
not so likely to eXercJse the best judgment
in matters requiring quick decision. 4 ,
The bill In the form in which it has
passed the senate and in which II ought
to pass the house, provides for the exer-
else of common sense In determining when
unforeseen and unusual circumstances make
1t impossible to live up to the letter of the
law. In the case OF delays through snow
storms, defective equipment or accident to
other trains 1t will sometimes happen that
crew will be out on the road more than
the sixteen hours which is the expected
limit of service. The law does not forbid
this, but 1t does make it illegal to send
buCi a CIcW Out OH lnb TOdu again after
arrival at the terminal station until the
men have rested
A law like this protects railway en-
ployes. more important thing is that II
protects travellers. There are many men
whom the promise of increased pay for
overtime would induce to work beyond the
safety line II permitted. The public mus
be guarded from accidents due to the ex-
haustion of willing workers quite as much
as the unwilling must be saved from the
compulsion OF hard officials. Overwork Is
one OF the most insidious dangers of the
railway service at present. because 1t Is
impossible to predict when It will be harm
| less and when II wall be fatal. The good
old rule to adopt. the course of action In
which there Is no chance of danger is tho
one TO follow here. 1t would be a good
thing II similar law applying to trains
wholly within the limits of a state were
passed by the several state legislatures
| which have not acted on the subject.
