The currency commission recon-
mended by the house committee on
banking and currency is to confine It's
INQUIRIES to the United States. Ii
some members of the commission
should accidentally know something
about the currency systems of Can
ada and Germany and France, or OF
the branch banking systems that pre-
vail in about every country except
ours, how can they be prevented
from using their knowledge in the
formulation of their report! Many
of our statesmen have entertained the
contempt for the worlds experience
which Stanley Matthews expressed IN
the senate in his interrogation
.sWhat do we care for abroad?'' But
IT is a new thing to impose upon
them specific prohibition against
knowing anything outside OF the

mines, thus adding to the millions of
dollars worth of ore which it now
has in sight. And with the new

1t is stated that President Roose-

with government by commission, and
we'll he may be- The appetite for
commissions, like other unwhole-

what it feeds upon. How many gov
eminent commissions are now in pro-
cess of incubation in congress it is
hard to say without searching the
Mes of the two houses; but how
many will be Matched is another
thing. All these commissions pro-
vide fat salaries for politicians and
friends of members of congress, else
they would have no attraction for
anvbody. Besides, their creation i'm
niles that congress is incapable of

Indianapolis. News.
Senator Knox, speaking of the his
tory of the railways in this country,
says: Interstate railways in the
early days found state lines and state
restrictions a great burden and they
asked and received Federal legisla-
ton for their benefit. Congress has
removed trammels upon transporta-
ton between the states, and the sup
preme court has approved this legisla-
ton. In the meantime state control
has become weak. This legislation
was solicited by the railways and APP
proved by the people. Certain abuses
and perversions of the argumelted
power of the railroad developed in
time, and thus led to the second stage
of railroad legislation. AS the rail-
roads sought the Federal power for
protection, SO the people sought the
same power for their own relief.
This resulted in the railway regula-
ton, beginning with the Interstate
Commerce Act of 1887. To correct
the defects in the first act, to defeat
the subtitle means used to nulify it
and to prevent other abuses which
had come to light, we're the objects
successfully of the antitrust law and
the railway rate law of the congress.
This is the story in a nutshell Some
of the captains of industry did not
play fair with the people, hence the
wrath of the people and the law COM
polling them to play fair. And the
result will be better for both railways
and people" Knox is all right
