the issue would be made in the near
future.
To facilitate the bond issue, the
stockholders will be asked at the
same meeting to ratify the taking
over by the Union Pacific Railroad
company of the physical properties
Of the Leavenworth, Kansas and
Western Railroad company and of
the Topeka and Northwestern Rail-
road company. which are already,
through the ownership of stock, a
part of the Union Pacific system.
These roads, taken together have
about 200 miles of track and are un-
mortgaged. It is proposed to include
them with the other unmortgaged
lines by which the new issue of bonds
is to be secured and in order to do
this it is necessary under the laws
of Kansas, by which the two compan-
les were incorporated, that the trans
action should be ratified by the stock
holders.
The directors by vote declined
to grant a request made by certain
stockholders that the board of d.
rectors bring suit against e. H. Har-
riman, H. H. Rogers and James Still
man, to recover profits which they
were alleged to have derived from a
sale Of the stock of the Illinois Cen
trail Railway company, Railroad Sc
curities company and the st. Joseph
& Grand Island Railroad company te
the Union Pacific system.
In giving their reasons for refusal
to bring the desired action, the di
rectors stated the interest of Messrs
Hartman, Rogers and Stillman in the
stock of the Illinois Central, and OF
Mr.. Hartman in the stock of the Rail-
road Securities company and ST. Jo-
seph & Grand Island company was
fully disclosed to the directors before
the transaction and the purchase was
unanimously authorized by other
members of the board, while Messrs
Hartman, Rogers and Stillman we're
excused from voting on that subject.

| five republican house votes in favor
| of them These, conjoined with the
solid democratic votes, will put them
through"
Mr.. Williams notes the following
measures as the ones which will
command virtually the solid demo
cratic vote within the constitution
al limits
To compel publication of campaign
contributions.
Prohibition of child labor in the
District of Columbia nd territories.
Employers liability law, drawn to
conform to recent decisions of the
supreme court.
Federal liability to government
employees.
Law to prohibit the issuance of in
functions without notice to the party
enjoined.
Removal of tariff on wood pulp and
printing paper.
Imposition of a federal charge for
every water power right granted on
Manageable streams.
Those principles and measures
urged by the president with which
Mr.. Williams, as minority leader,
takes issue, are enumerated as fol-
lows:
Penalizing of the boycott Right
of attorney generals to nominate re-
ceivers when common carriers
are thrown into the hands
Of a receiver. Modification of
the Sherman antitrust law so as to
permit, within limitation, the main
tenance Of trusts ana making of
trade agreements between combina-
lions of capital
Appointment of a commission to
prepare data for the revision of the
tariff.
Mr.. Williams states that he does
not know whether majority of the
minority favors the creation of a
permanent waterways commission.
Referring to the presidents dec
laration that child labor ought to
be prohibited throughout the nation
and his recommendation that eat
least model child labor bill should
be passed for the District of Column
bia,'' Mr. Williams says:
Child laSor ought to be prohibit
ed throughout the nation, but the
states are the sole authorities, hav-
ing constitutional power to prohibit
it. If those who would protect the
children Of the land, and ahru them,
generations to come, would waste
less of their time in useless agitation
for invalid and unconstitutional fed
eral legislation and would devote
more of their time in the several
states it would be better for all. But
the president is right in saying that
we can act for the District Of Col
umbia and for the territories as well
and that we ought to do it."
