ON RAILROAD BUILDING.

TIE Railway Age expresses Itself
in strong terus on the action OF the
South Dakots legislature in passing
stringent railroad laws, which the
Age claims has bad effect on tue ex-
tension of railroad systems, and just
what this state is in need OF. The
Aye takes this kind OF a fan out OF
the state along the lines OF drastic
legislation:
South Dakota is Il state large in
area but small in respect TO railroad
mileage; great in anticipation but
limited 10 realization. 1t claims
vast possibilities for its %unpeopled
plains and hills. but depends for
their development upon people and
capital from without. With an area
OF 1850 square miles South Dakota,
the commencement OF 1906 had
$500 miles of railway. or u mile TOR
each "a square miles; Willie the ad-
joining state of Iowa, with only So
D25 square miles, at the same time
had 1858 miles OF railway, or one
mile Tor less than six square miles.
To reach the present ratio OF Iowa
South Dakota should have ID, 200
miles of railway, : or 0 1000 more
than she now has. Railways have
not extended rapidly in South Da-
kota, because Notwithstanding the
freedom from hostile legislation
hitherto enjoyed. the traffic deyel-
erative to encourage large extension
of lines. Siuce 1890 the Increase has
been oily 572 miles; since 1900. only
22l miles.
Apparently many of the Influential
people of the state want no more
roads built, for they have flooded the
legislature With bills admirably
adapted to discourage the invest
ment OF more money in that form,
as each of them proposes either to
reduce the income or increase the
expenses OF ali the railways, and al
design to enlarge the legal response
bilities and financial risks of railway
construction and operation. 10 the
opening days Of the present legisIa-
tive session fully thirty bills were
offered hostile to railway and cor
porate investments.
Some Of these proposed measures
are reasonable but unnecessary; some
are unreasonable II oppressive; all
apparently are offered in d spirit OF
suspicion ana antaSOnlSm TOWARD cor
porations generally and railways in
particular which is o favorable 10
the development Of the state by out
side capital. 1t seems too soon for
South Dakota and other frontier
states to commence severe reduction
OF rates and the imposition of need
less burdens upon the infant i1dus-
try Of transportation within their
wide domains. Would it not be
wiser-without mentioning Justice
to encourage the building of rail- ,
ways, and permit their operation by
those who have most at stake, until
the roads have built up the waste .
places and brought general prosper
ity ? Then they can be legjslated
upon with impunity, for when rail-
roads once get going they cannot stop
and move away.
The position Of the Age is sus-
tanned somewhat by the statements
maze by President EARRING, of the
Milwaukee road, who declares that
If were possible his company would
stop the Pacific extension now. and
as it is retrenchment will be made
wherever possible in the Way of i'm
provements.

j. G. Welliver, the Sioux City
Tribune Washington correspondent,
is authority for the statement that
Senator Gamble is to have his way
in the appointment of a United
States district attorney, claiming
that the president had conceded that
to him. Mr.. Welliver also says that
In all future postofice and land office
appointments the new congressional
delegation is to have full control Of
the dispensation OF the patronage.
Perhaps that Is true, but Mr.. Welli-
yer has been sending out such unre-
liable information FROM Washington,
SO far as South Dakota matters are
concerned, that. it will take the
future TO develope the truth Of bis
assertions. Messrs. Martin and
Burke. however, feel pretty confident
that bhey Will be able to secure the
recess appointments OF the postnas-
tiers whJ we're not confirmed b. con
gress before the day OF adjournment.

Senator Kittredge has received and
accepted an invitation from Secle-
tary Taft to make a visit to the
scene of the Panama canal within a
short time to become more familiar
with the work of construction. Since
Mr.. Kittredge has succeeded to the
head Of the in%ter-oceanic committee
OF which he has been the nominal
head for the past year, his work
will become more important. The
future or the senator will indeed
become a brilliant one and he has the
ability behind him to sustain all
the honors which come tc him.

About all Attorney Jerome can
hope to get out of the Thaw trial
now is to secure the incarceration of
Thaw in an insane asylum, and his
actions in conducting the case point
to that hope. He has succeeded in
dragging Mrs. Thaw over the Goals
in a rehearsal of her story and which
he endeavored to make all the worse
by his constituencies probing of the
