The Rritish Naval authorities are

The British Naval authorities are
said to be preparing plans for a
war-ship SO per cent create. than the
Dreadnaught or with a displacement
of 10000 tons. Our naval designers
have proposed to build war ship of
40, 900 tons, which will cost $20,0Oo,-
600. When will this rivalry for the
size and number of war ships cease,
or what will satisfy this craving for
war preparations? In the end It must
the people of all countries
that strive for supremacy, for there
is not only the vast outlay for build
ing these enormous war engines, but
the constant expense of keeping them
in repair and in commission. Expert
ence shows that in about ten years
our finest war ships few years ago
are now built for the scrap heap.
The limitation of land and naval
armaments is something the world
must soon agree upon, for 1t is sense
less to tax people for the creation OF
that which is really useless.

When the Legislature Of Ohio In
1906 passed the cent passenger rate
bill, the railroad managers declared
1t was ruinous and confiscatory. But
the official returns of all the rail-
roads in the state for the year ending
June 80, 1907, as figured by the Ohio
Railroad Commission, shows a sub
stantial increase over the preceding
year. This increase Is due to the
elimination of free passes and excur-
sion rates and the natural growth OF
Z passenger traffic. The result in the
y state Of Ohio, however, is not fair
I. criterion for some other states, be-
= cause it is traversed by interstate
\ railroads from East to West which
: must increase the returns for pass
4 enger traffic. 1t Is also a more
{, densely populated state than many
\ others ranking higher than New York
! or Pennsylvania perhaps with it's well

s. seem that the Interstate Commerce
(, Commission could figure out the cost
y per mile for passenger traffic which
4 could be used as a standard for fixing
Il the rates in each state as the Ohio
! Commission has done for that state.

shall be allowed to charge reasonable
