RAILROAD REGULATION.

II He State Railroad Commissioners, at their
y convention in Washington, appear to have
agreed upon only one thing, and that is
opposition to the proposed Federal policy of
President Roosevelt for the regulation of rail-
roads. The commissioners, who are in close
touch with the railroad situation in their re.
spective States, are convinced that it would be
better for the States to regulate the roads, but
the commissioners have been unable to unite
upon any policy of Recommendation This sho VS.
how wide and divergent is the thought upon this
topic. Its practical discussion is only of recent
date, and hence before definite plans can be pre-
sented by men competent TO speak, there must
have been experience TO guide them. They arc
getting that experience by watching the opera
tons Of railroads under the new laws imposed
upon the companies in the different States Any
regulation of railroad companies must of neoes-
sity be slow and careful.
The attitude OF the State Commissioners, how
ever, makes it clear that government ownership
of the railroads cannot become serious issue in
this country for many years to come, if at all.
Whether such an issue does arise depends upon
the managers of the companies themselves. If
the present regulatory schemes are complied with
anu prove DSnehSldii uS talk OF government
ownership will pass away. Otherwise it may be
revived The State Commissioners seem to think
that each State should impose the conditions that
it thinks desirable. Evidently the commissioners
are going on the assumption that each State has
a railroad commission. In Delaware, however,
the corporations had a commission in the State
Senate that imposed conditions upon the people
of the State instead of a commission imposing
conditions upon the corporations. And there 5
no immediate prospect of any change. The rail-
road commissioners convention might have con-
sidered this point-of a State where there is no
railroad commission and where there is no pros
pect of getting one

LET THE ELECTION BE CLEAN.

HE Anti-License State Committee has Of
\ fered rewards for the arrest and conviction
OF persons who may violate the Constitution and
the statute laws of this State regarding the il
legal use of money during elections and who mas
'violate the law regarding elections in any other
way.
For years we have had upon our statute books
laws providing severe penalties for such viola
tions and the politicians have made a mockery of
them. Bribery and corruption have been dis
grace TO Delaware but there is no reason why
determined effort should not be made during the
present campaign to enforce these laws We
trust that both sides of this conflict will use their
utmost endeavors TO prevent the use of money
illegally Their expense is heavy enough for le-
gitmate purposes and we do not imagine that
either side has any money TO throw away The
license men have stated that the reports of their
campaign fund, its size and what they propose to
spend were grossly exaggerated, and hence we
do not believe they intend to supply funds un-
limited to the grafters and vote-selers who during
every campaign, demand money for their votes.
Let US have election without the incidents that
have surrounded many of our political combats in
the past

QUEER INCIDENT
IN SCHOOL LAW

Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL.
HARRINGTON. Del. Oct. 12-It is
true in law as well as in everyday
experiences that man proposes but
God disDoses. The compulsory educa-
tion law just adopted in Delaware will
have to be violated in the chaplain's
Chapel district in Sussex county. Tho
school was large enought to accom-
modate all the children aof the district
until three men moved in With their
families of eight to ten children. The
latest new settler TO arrive is William
Cope, from near Elkton. He pur-
chased the Lawton and Layton farm
and moved in with his family Of eight
children, all OF school age.
Now the only way. IL is said, that
this conflict between compulsory edu-
cation and anti-race suicide can be
adjusted is for William TO go 10 school

sition made to II to widen the locks
from 100 TO 100 feet. Colonel Goethal,
chairman OF the commission, believes
that 100 feet Is sufficiently large, but
the settlement of the question is one
which in his opinion properly belongs to
the navy to decide and II its efficiency
to let a battleship through can be in
creased by widening the locks, he says
there Is no question but that wider
locks should be adopted, The work at
present is in such a shape that no in
crease can be made without detri-
ment to the work or undoing any that
has so far been done. Completion OF the
Gatun Dam will determine the time for
the completion Of the entire canal,
Work on the dam has just been be-
gun and Is the only unknown factor in
regard to the completion Of the entire
canal, it being possible to figure the time
required for the completing OF the Guile
bra cut and locks. 1t is the purpose to
reduce the excavation on the Cnlebra
cut so as to bring about the completion
of all parts of the canal at the same
time.
