matter, as Tom Watson shows in his
article on National Banks? Can
we believe that intelligent people, who
are also honest, will allow a certain

profits, without protesting against it.

the road has paid dividends on its
stock averaging about seven per cent
surely fair return upon the capt.
tai invested
In other words, the Chicago &
Northwestern has charged rates for
transportation in the last eight years
that have plainly yielded more than
$50,000,000 over and above a fair re-
turn upon the capital invested. And
it is alleged to be signal virtue that
this $50,000,000, instead Of being dis
tributed among the stockholders in
dividends, has been devoted to extern
slons and permanent improvements
thereby relieving stockholders, to that
important extent, from the necessity
of supplying the additional capital
that the growth Of the system and the
increased demand for transportation
facilities required.
The public shippers and travellers
has been compelled to furnish the
road, in eight years, with $50,0OO,00O
of capital. But the public gets no re-
turn upon the capital that it has
thus supplied. The average rate
charged per passenger per mile in
1906 was 2.05 cents against only 2.O2
cents in 1903. And the average rate
charged per ton per mile for freight
was the same in 1906 as in 1908, name
ly, 8,9 mills. Probably some concessions
to big shippers were cut down mean
while, but the ordinary shipper ac-
tually paid more. The public gets no
representation in the management on
account of the capital that it fur
nishes. Clearly, it ought to control at
least one-th third Of the board Of direc-
tors.
The Chicago & Northwestern is
merely one example out of many.
Practically all the big roads yearly
take great sums out Of earnings and
devote them to permanent improve
ments and extensions. This is held
to be an exceedingly virtuous prac-
tise, and to atone in great part for
whatever stock-watering has been in
dulged in. The idea really is that if
the fnanciers have created great
quantities Of bogus stocks and palmed
them off upon the public, it doesn It
matter, because the same public can
be made to pay such rates for trans
portation as will give substantial
value to the watered securities.
1t is not possible to trace directly
the imitation Of capital that has re-
suited from much Of the financial
strategy Of the railroad in late years
such as the Pennsylvania Railroad s
purchase of Baltimore & Ohio, Nor
folk & Western, Chesapeake & Ohio;
Baltimore & Ohio's purchase Of Read
ing; Readings purchase Of the Cen
trail Railroad of New Jersey, etc., be-
cause no new issue of securities to
finance each distinct purchase was i'm
mediately made. That the general
effect was to initiate capitalization is
obvious, however.
You can hardly bore into this sub
ject anywhere without striking water

SUMMARY.

WOulQ De nelu responsible Tor The
safety of the lives and property of
Americans in Persia. In conjunction
with this is the statement that a GER
tain Baskerville, connected with the
missionary school for boys at Tabriz,
who was accused Of completely in rev.
dictionary movements, has resigned
from the Presbyterian mission, which
disclaimed all his responsibility for
his acts, which resignation indicates
that the accusations against him were
true. If so, it places this government
in an unenviable attitude; to demand
of the existing government protection
for its citizens there, while any Of
them are conspiring against it, is If
reconciliable with strict justice, to
say the least.
The Shah retains not shadow Of
authority, being practically nothing
more than a prisoner in the hands of
Russian officers, who are guarding him
IN camp without Ieheran.
In many places the revolutionists
are in state of seige, the wild tribes
men, who seem actuated by Moslem
fanaticism than anything else, being
really the free-lance power, lending
their aid for the time to the remnant
of the Persian troops.
Direct nominations, of Senators, as
recommended in New York State by
Governor Hughes received
Hughes their .deathblow in the as
Plan sembly, at least so
Fails. far as the present session
of the Legislature is con-
cerned. By vote of 112 to %, after
a debate lasting most Of the day, the
Assembly decided to sustain the ad-
verse report of the Judiciary Commit
tee, which, with two dissenting votes
out of II, had registered its disap-
proval of the measure.
Seventy-tive Republicans and 81
Democrats voted by indirection
against the bill, while Is Republicans
and 10 Democrats voted for it. The
vote was so overwhelming that Mr.
Green did not make the usual motion
to reconsider the vote, and so far as
the Assembly is concerned the issue
is closed.
Governor Hughes recommendation
that the telephone and telegraph COM
panies Of the state be placed under the
jurisdiction Of the public-service COM
missions was rejected by the Assem-
bly,, when, by vote Of 81 to SO,
motion to discharge the Committee
on Electricity, Gas and Water Supply
from further consideration of his bill,
embodying the Governor recommen-
dation, was denied.
