Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1908-01-27

In a recent address delivered by At
torney General Hadley of Missouri
some interesting facts were presented
relative to 2-cent rate laws. He shows
that under the cid Scent mile rate
for some and cut rates and 10 rate
at all for others. various railroads, adj
mittedly doing a profitable passenger
business. realized per mile rates as
follows: Chicago. Burlington & Quln'
CIV. 1.SS: Wabash, III; Missouri Pa
cific, 1.SS.
In Illinois one serious trouble with
the operation of the law IS absence OF
consistent anti-pass legisla,io ion to &C
company the 2-cent rate legislation
In most states where 2-cent rate laws
Lave been adopted, sweeping anti-pasS
laws have been enacted rs a sort OF
antidote.
Members of the Legislature, alder
men. mayors and others in great mum
Lcrs ride en- passes in Illinois.
This free passenger traffic naturally
enough hampers correct application OF
rate laws. as those who pay fare must
necessarily MAKE lin the deficiency left
by those who do Tot pay. And the
worse feature OF this pass business is
that in considers t On of such passes
officials are very frequently subsidized
IL is intended h the railroads as d
sort of voluntary graft to prevent aG
verse legis lation. Passes are given &c
Officials, to SOPHIE and comfort them
and to maintain ''friendlinasS" on the
Tart of officials having such passes to
ward their donors, that naturally give:
the railFO2d corporations certain ad
vantages over the public when issues
concerning those corporations and ths
public arc submitted to pasS-hOlding
officials.
Attorney General Hadley believes
that i'll most Instances the 2-ceut rate
law has proven Lenefit rather thar
4 hardship to tho railroads, and it is tC
be hoped that Mr.. Hadley is right iT
his prediction that in the states hav
ing 2-cenU rate laws. there will. as {
whole, be less arG less opposition tc
those laws, and i'll time will prove :
loon to all concerned.

am satisfied that the abolition of the
canteen has resulted in injury to the
service The morals and discipline
of the army have suffered in conse-
Quence.'
This is pretty straight testimony
from an authoritative source General
Bells opinion is the general opinion
among army officers, as well as among
the rank and file who regard the de-
privation imposed upon them as an
unnecessary infringement of personal
liberty, and who insist that it is bet
ter to have regulated drinking inside
the camp than unregulated and Illicit
drinking outside. The chief of staff
of the army has set forth facts; but
theorists never have use for facts.

The Army CanteeD.

The spread of prohibition sentiment
throughout the country will no doubt
prevent any action by congress favor
ing the repeal of the law abolishing
the canteen at army posts. Practical
politicians are timorous persons. very
alert in ascertaining the momentary
drift of popular opinion. They watch
the way the wind blows and sail with
the prevailing current. Congress is
full of these trimmers. After the tenn
perance tempest is overblown they
may pay some heed to practical exper-
fence as set forth by army officers.
Major General Bell who has made a
careful and impartial study of the
situation since the cahteen was
abolished, in his annual report to the
wart department, just published. says:
when the canteen was in opera
ton there were fewer desertions,

in the Pruyn lot, where the boys used
to coast in winter. 1t was too steep
for the girls. One could easily run
clear to the river on good pointer.
But there was no hint of snow in
this picture. The trees that fringed
the river bank were in full leaf. the
lone willow that grew on the tiny is
land was draped in green, and Jimmy
could fairly smell the mint and the
sweet flag in the marsh where the
creek through the Newmans' lot form
ed a confluence with the river.
Somehow it brought Arlington back
with startling distinctness. He had
supposed that he had forgotten the
town in his two hurried years of city
life, but with the picture before him
it was as though he had just climbed
the hill from the little red house that
was hidden in the picture by the new
brick Methodist church. They We're

come away. Now it proudly reared its
head above all the other buildings.
Jimmy turned the card over and re-
garded its face. The blurred post
mark seemed like an old friend. He

the corner nearest the drug store, and

stamping the mail

The Danger OfDeIay.

The Rock Island city council meets
again tonight to consider the conces-
siaSs that will be made to the people
of South Rock Island desiring annexa-
ton to the city of Rock Island As
has been heretofore related, the coun-
Gil at its meeting last Friday night
readily acquiesced on every PROPOSE
ton, except the conditions under
which water mains would be eX-
tended for fire protection, and it
might just as well have made itself
clear OH this point as well. 1t is sim
cerely to be hoped the council will
make haste to put itself right and in
a manner favorable to the petitioners
in this one respect tonight. The delay
that has already been suffered has
proven hazardous to the proposition
owing TO the shortness of the time
when the petitions may be prepared in
order that they may be properly sub
mitted in connection with the spring
election.

When the ordinance came up raising

il was rushed through the same night
without taking into consideration
its full significance or affording an OPP
portunity for an expression of public
sentiment. which proved after the or
dinance has been adopted dramatically
opposed to it.
On the matter of territorial anneXa'
ton however, there can be no mis-
apprehension as to how the people
stand. The subject has been discussed
extensively and the people with one
accord, are for inviting the South Rock
Island people who desire to come in
with open arms. and extending to
them every reasonable concession that
they may expect.
The proposition. as has been told
involves too much of mutual advan

Jimmy propped the card against the
his breakfast his eyes seldom wan
dered from the picture Della, the din
ing room girl. regarded him scornfully.
What was the use of incoming over a
picture postal with never a word to
tell who it was from?
1t was rather a pretty picture, a
of broad stream, but it might have
been a love letter from the way jim
my stared at it. Twice Della had to
remind him that he must leave the
house by three minutes past in order
to catch the last car that would land
him at the Office on time.
Della knew to q fraction of second
when each of Mrs. Beeman's twOscore
boarders must leave. briggs jestingly
called her the human alarm clock
Recalled to earth by the second sug-
gestion, Jimmy thrust the card into his
breast pocket and sprinted down the
street to the corner. Once on the car
he took out the card again and had TO
walk back three blocks because he
was carried past the office building
still studying the picture.
After all, 1t was a picture well worth
the study, for Arlington was one of
the prettiest towns in his native state.
Postal cards with local views were
something new for the little town.
Jimmy could remember the stir which
the first illustrated postal received by
an Arlingtonian had made. Sarah
Coyne, to whom it was addressed, had
let the postmistress keep it for a
whole week that all might see the Curl

than the first Philippine stamp.
Now, it was evident that some ANA

AUTOMOBILE WAR
Association Takes Drastic Action
Against Club.

New York, May 2s.-What amounts
to formal declaration OF war between
the American Automobile association
and the Automobile cluo OF America,
with the control of the Vanderbilt cup
race and other national and interna-
tional automobiling events as the stake,
was made al a meeting of the Ameri-
can Automobile associations racing
board held today at its headquarters
here.
The racing board Of the association
passed drastic resolutions aimed at
what the American Automobile asso-
citation supposedly feared was an at
tempt of the Automobile club Of Amer
lea TO obtain control of racing and
perhaps all motoring matters in this
country. One provided for a general
notification to all foreign and Ameri-
can clubs and manufacturers that the
American Automobiling association
the national governing body in the
United States will hereafter annually
sanction but three national or interna-
tional events, namely, the Vanderbilt
cup race, for racing cars, the annual
touring contest for the Glldden and
other trophies, and the Demont Thomp-
son cup contest for stock cars
