The report from Council Bluffs tell

certain dairy herds by the milk in

pieces of news ever sent out to the
public press of the state. Cows We're

tuberculosis. and in one instance it was
discovered that tuberculor pus was
actually being MIXED from he COW and
fed to children, pouring into their syS-

a condition is shocking and what has
happened at Council Bluffs may be
occurring daily right here at home. If
there was ever an argument in favor
of the inspection of all milk cows ii

saving the cost of inspection among
their herds is not to be considered UNI

1t is gratifying to note the rapid
growth of the Marshalltown public Ii
brary, and if there are any who
thought. prior to the founding of Il
library here, that the institution would
not be sought by the general read
ing public, such doubts can not now
help but be dispelled With nearly
so. 900 books circulated last year, it is
shown that some one has been doing
some reading This is an increase of
almost 1000 over the year preceding.
With the establishment of branch Ii
oraries in more remote parts of town
the library trustees expect TO even
increase the circulation this year.
There is no doubt but that the library
is appreciated.

Bobs Up With Idea of Govern

Railroads.
GLADSTONE FAVORED IDEA.
WHEN HE DISCOVERED THE
GREAT COST HE ABANDONED
THE SCHEME HoWEvER-SO-

London, Nov. 2S.-When things are
getting dull and people are inclined to
90 to sleep, that irrepressible young
man. Mr.. Winston Churchill, president
of the board of trade, is sure to be up
and saying or doing things to stir up a
sommotion.
Now he has set the whole city in
curing l. railway naturalization is to
be the next plank in the liberal gov
ernment's platform.
Mr.. David Lloyd-George has already
expressed himself in favor of the prin-
ciple Of states control Of railways, but
now Mr.. Winston Churchill states def
tnitely that q measure to secure this
object will be proposed by the present
government. The socialists will be
delighted with the project held out by
the president of the board of trade, for
this Is the pet feature Of their general
Hevelling down programme.
Nor is it a new plank for the liber-
ais So long ago as 1874 Gladstone
had the proposal up his sleeve, but
there it stopped when he discovered
that the government would not be able
to purchase the railways for less than
one thousand and sixty million pounds
sterling.
{ There are few who realize what the
idea involves. The total authorized
capital of the railways of this country
is no less than fl So, 10000 (S692S,-

Der annually the total Of 1,24O, 1913 coo.
The bare idea of buying out a system
whose capital runs into the thousands
of millions is a staggerer which not
even the adventurous liberal govern
tment can contemplate with equanim-
ity.
! 1t is urged for the proposal that pri-
jvate ownership leads to waste which
khas to be paid for by the public in
higher rates and fares. State rail-
ways would provide, it is said, shorter
hoursani higher wages for employees,
lworkmen's trains. cheaper fares, and
Increased facilities all around.
On the other hand it is pointed out
that on Continental State owned rail
ways passengers travel much more
lslowly, the charges are higher, and
facilities for third class passengers are
Mar less good. take longer transit. Of
'ficialdom is rampant, and that dan
gerous opportunity is established for
using the employees for political pur-
poses.
The problem is gigantic enough even
for the intellect of the president of the
board of trade.

COMP IIIION OF
LINES NEEDED
Pooling of Traffic by Big Rail-
roads Works to Country's
Disadvantage.
CANADA SETS AN EXAMPLE
SHOWN THAT RAILROAD BUILD
ING is ON INCREASE IN THAT
COUNTRY AND PEOPLE ARE
PROFiTlNG BY 1T.

Chicago, Nov. 2S.-Active railroad
competition as a remedy for some Of
our more pressing transportation prob
lens has found a new exponent in the
officers of the Canadian railroads, who
do not agree it appears, with the Har-
rimans and the Hills that pooling Of
traffic and holding companies are an
unmixed blessing.
Arthur Hawkes., of the Canadian
Northern line, who mas Just been in
Chicago, is the latest visitor to this
country to point out the dangers of
consolidation. In Canada the situa-
ton is very different, he declared, for
with every other road in the same ter
ritory and railroad building to pro-
vide for increasing traffic is being
carried on at rate that far exceeds
that here. AS an example of this
activity he cited the Brandon-Regina
short line Of the Canadian Northern,
which was opened barely three weeks
ago and which has provided still an
other route between Winnipeg and
Regina, in competition with the Cana
dian Pacific railway. This meets the
demands of the late fall freight traffic
and will furnish the facilities for a
fast service from Winnipeg to the
saskatchewan capital. In his coun-
try the tendency has been the other
way and railroad building has fallen
far behind the needs as compared with
Canada which has now more railroad
mileage per capita than any other
country on theelobe. The Canadian
Northern railroad has the even more
unique record of having extended its
lines mile a day for eleven years.
Whether the United States will heed
this latest warning from it's neighbor
to the north connot of course be told
but railway men here have stated their
opinion that more active steps will
have to be taken in he near future If
United States roads expect to keep
pace with the big dominion lines.
