SHIPPERS AND RAILROADS.

IT HE gospel OF concaton and doctrine of
Il "get together" for shippers and railroads,
as advocated by recently organized association,
received a rude jolt at the annual meeting of the
Illinois Manufacturers Association the other
night.
The man who threw the verbal bomb into the
peaceful assemblage was Mr.. Ohio c. Barber,
president of the Diamond Match Company.
Other speakers pleaded for the mutually of in
terests between shippers and railroad men, but
Mr. Barber sounded no such note OF peace. lie
declared that there was no power on earth that
could keep the railroads straight and that the
railroads were the banditti of the commercial
world-rather violent language not justified by
the facts. He believed that the government
should guarantee the investors in railroad securi-
ties four per cent. return on their investments
and then the government should run the whole
shooting match"
On the other hand, representative of the rail
road companies pleaded that the railroad COM
pany was the only business concern that was not
permitted to advance its rates and conduct its
own business without interference.
President Upham. of the Shippers Associa-
ton, declared that the country was thoroughly
aroused and the railroads would be forced to deal
Justly with the shippers Flhe sun OF a new
gospel Of trade relations has arisen III this coun-
try" he said "and if the railroads attempt TO
check it. mutually and and Cancellation OF inter-
ests will give way TO war.
AS the railroad representative SAID, IL Is true
that the railroads arc not permitted to fix their
own rates and to do as they please, ordinary
businesses are, but the reason for this is simple
The railroads are natural monopohes man in
business is absolutely dependent upon them
They can make or ruin him. They are the Cars
Of the industrial world.
But the policy of conciliation at present is the
better policy. 1t can accomplish much-even III

find that they must bow to public sentiment and
help with. appropriations the projects that have
enlisted the pecuniary and other support of so
large part of our citizenship broad, compre-
hensive plan of improvement win soon be decided
upon
The President puts the subject we'll in his mes
sage where he says, "The time for playing with
our waterways is pasN-the country demands re-
suits"
The President favots immediate action that
will bring results. No special interests should be
considered. No clique of men, for selfish pur
pose, should be permitted to hold up this general
scheme Of waterways improvement.
This whole question is, Of course, interesting
to Delaware. The first definite step forward will
probably be the purchase of the Chesapeake and
Delaware canal by the government and its con-
version into a ship canal. That Delaware should
have ship canal has long been the dream of
many Delawareans Years ago the question was
agitated, but nothing ssngbe was ever accom-
pshed simply because there was persistent
urging II is different now. The movement has
spread throughout the country and has enlisted
the attention of business men all along the At
lantc coast.
The seeds planted in this city but few years
ago are about to bear fruit and Delaware will
have cause to be proud when the harvest Of a
ship canal is reaped.

Delaware's Game Law.


Sussex Journal
Delaware has the most ridiculous and
abominable game law in existence. 1t
Is made and framed exclusively in the
interest Of the so-cailed game protec-
ton associations. If the farmer who
feeds and raise the game, ship or carry
birds across the county or state line
he Is fined So and costs for each bird,
and Il is the detectives hired by the
game protection association who in
form on the party taking or shining
the birds. But a member of the game
protection association can take game
out Of the State by the load. and he is
protected by this Same abominable
law. Then under this law the shoot
ing season opens November 10. just
at the time when the farmer is bus
lest gathering in his crops, and Of
course cannot get away. from his work
TO hunt, but the members of the game
protective association from out of the
State. and they are nearly all nom
residents, come down and kill or dis
pose OF the game before the farmer
has the leisure time for hunting The
law should be so ammended that the
season should not open until the first
Of December, and non-residents should
pay a certain sum for every piece OF
game taken outside OF the State, OF
better still they should be protected
entirely from taking game outside OF
the state. Why such an minable
law should have ever crept into our
statute books is beyond comprehen-
sive. but it can be remedied II the next
Legislature win do its duty.
