\ movement Tor cooperation be-
tween the railroads and the shippers
Of the country as the only way to
solve the railroad problem had its
origin last week in the offer of Chi
cago shippers to meet the railroads
part way In return the railroads
were told that they must cease think
ing OF their property as personal. pri-
waite property and should refrain
from doing things which affect the
rights of shippers without conference
with them H. c. Barlow, the eNecu-
tive director Of the Chicago Assocla-
ton of Commerce, who voiced these
views on behalf of the shippers. did
not stand on ceremony in telling the
officers Of the western railroad sys-
TENS what they would have to do.
III the railroads are to be saved from
themselves" he said. and If com
merce and the railroads are TO be
saved from the mob, corporation be-
tween the shipper and the railroads
is necessary. The success OF the rail-
raads depends more upon commerce.
Infinitely more. than the success Of
commerce depends upon the rail-
roads. You can not expect success
fully to appeal to the country when
you continually from caprice or within
or desire to gain some advantage,
and often without any material in
crease in your revenues, disrupt ar
raugement. which have been in Eff
feet FOR years" This demand of the
shippers is significant coming as 1t
does on the heels Of the American
Railway associations report that rail-
road equipment representing more
than S45o,000,0o0 Of capital is now
lying idle on account of the Industrial
depression

CONCERNING FALSE FIRE ALARMS.

CUNCEkNiNu fALSE FlkE ALARMS.
To the Editor of the Evening Star:
In last evenings issue of THE STAR,
which I now take by preference, is an
item headed Fire Chief Says Police
Must Stop False Alarms. and Habit
of Summoning Department Maliciously
Is Becoming Chronic Here" It has
been chronic for the past eight years,
since the average of false alarms has
been nearly 10 per cent. annually.
The chief. in my opinion. makes two
errors: First. that he puts the respon-
sibility Of stopping the abuse upon the
police department. which has no con-
troll over the MANAGEMENT of the fire
alarm system, instead of upon the
Board of Fire Commissioners, who are
paid for the purpose of guarding the
public interest In fire matters. and
which board alone is responsible for the
open boxes. s'
1t is also stated In the article that
the chief is ready to pay $25, "out Of his
own pocket" to secure the conviction of
a malefactor. About six years ago [
proposed to be one of ten to offer a re-
ward of 5000 for the same purpose, but
got no response, either from the mem
bers of the board or from any one with
in or without the fire department.
The second error Of the chief, as I see
it, is that he speaks to the public, in
stead of directly to his board. Once
more my belief is indicated that ap-
pointive boards are not best to con-
serve public interests. In this matter
of false alarm fiends, had the board
beer elective, instead of appointive, 7.
for one, should have seen to 1t that the
matter was made q campaign issue.
The Fire Board cannot claim that their
attention to this matter has not been
fully urged and kept alive, as I, for one.
publicly have been at them for more
than eight years. Chief Ashley is right
something must be done-but 1t must
be done by the Fire Board primarily.

SOME SUCCESS" NUGGETS.

Make it a life rulo never to be dis

The hardest thing about getting
along with disagreeable people Is thai
you cannot let them know what you

Never allow yourself to live for any
thing @ than your highest ideal. II
you do, you will deteriorate.
1t is wicked for us to go about witt
faces which indicate that life has beer
a disappointment to us instead of q
glorious joy. 1t shows that we have
missed the real object of living; thai
we have never caught a glimpse Of the
realities of life, but that we care livinf
In the shadows, in the gloom instead OF
the sunshine of reality. of truth, o.
beauty. 1t indicates that we have not
even caught a glimpse of h rea
glory of life.
Multitudes of men and women would
be sick In bed IL they could afford It
but the hungry mouths to feed, the
children to clothe, these and all the
other obligations of life so press upon
them that they cannot stop working;
they must keep going whether they
feel like It OIL not.
Never allow yourself to think about
or to speak of that which you do not
wish to become true. Do lot give thu

WHAT REPUBLICAN oRaAMzA TON IN ESSEX FACES.

While the interest in national politics has been stagnant tin this State since
the national conventions were held the interest in State politics hs been absorb
ing and chiefly on account of the excise question. The principal centre of in
teresti is Essex county. and the Republican interest hs been greater than the
Democratic or the reason that h Republicans are divided into hostile camps
regulars and independents, while the Democratic party relations are normal. A
large primary vote WILL therefore, be poued today, the Republican vote being in
excess the Democratic. Ordinarily the party primary brings ut only a frac-
thn of the party voters. but there will be poned in Essex county more than one
half the vote of the State election Tasty ar On the Republican side the unity
and power Of the party organization will be put to the test. In fact, the very
life OF thu organization is in question today Defeat by a faction which has
pnoried its representatives an leaders as mworhyo of public confidence and by
candidates who publicly avow themselves Independent would amount prac-
tcany to reputation of organization by the party majority. Defeat would leave
the Republican County Committee stranded. The New Idea would swallow up
the organization, and the whnom leaders would bow to a single autocrat
