The Railroad Should
Help Build the Viaduct.

1t Will be generally conceded that
the recommendation made to the
council by the mayor Wednesday
evening that viaduct be constructed
on East Gadsden street over the
tracks of the Louisville and Nashville
railroad was timely and wise. The
paving of this street, as stated, will
make it a thoroughfare for the city's
traffic and a grade crossing Of the
railroad would be fraught with dan
gerous consequences
The Journal, however, does not
think the city should bear the whole
cost of building the viaduct, cost
estimated at $16,500. The railroad
company should certainly be willing
to pay half this cost. After all, the
city's interest in the structure is al
together an unselfish one-the pro
lection of its citizens, while that OF
the railroad must necessarily be great
and governed to a large extent by
business considerations. For should
the grade crossing be allowed to re-
low, human life would be sacrificed
and the road would suffer suits for
damages which in the vast majority
of cases it would have to pay.
No doubt, the officers of the Louis
Vile and Nashville will at once recog-
nize the justice of this view Of the
matter and will authorize their COM
pany to pay it's quota of the viaduct's
cost without delay. In fact the prop
osEEiz.aa s---5ss-ssfr-
moral and business standpoint tnat
there cannot be two ways of looking
at it. The city council should take
no action in the matter until 1t Is
ascertained what the railroad compa-
ny will do.

only school in the state that holds

Congress Suffers the
Effect of it's Own Folly.

When the act was passed by con-
gress creating the department of
commerce and labor wise men shook
their heads. They saw in the provis-
ion that the reports of the depart
ment should be made directly to the
president and that the latter need
only make public so much of them as
he might think proper a dangerous
innoyatiOn-a power far beyond what
is right and proper in a republican
government to be placed in the hands
of the executive. There was no way
of telling to what improper use sucn
a power might be put, but il was self
evident that a president who might
pace his own selfish purposes before
the welfare OF his country would
abuse that power and bring about
very mischievous results.
But that was in 1906, if our TecoI-
lection is right, when Roosevelt was
at the zenith of his popularity; when
an insensate public, fooled by his
loud-mouthed protestations and by
pei BOllb CAnlBlAAOh VI
righteousness" were willing to grant
him anything-wouldh have, no doubt,
as readily bestowed on him the
world with a fence around it, as
they did a substantial ownership of
the canal zone, had the entire mum
dane planet been one of their pos
sessions. Conditions have now
changed. The greatest of American
numbugs has been exposed, and con-
gress is anxious to find out just how
far the president has disObeyed the
law in sanctioning the purchase of the
Tennessee Coal and Iron company by
CaTnegie's big steel trust.
The president, however, foreseeing
that demand would be made by the
senate upon the department of COM
regarding this purchase, has quietly
appropriated all the important docu-
ments bearing upon it and, 10 and be-
hold the inquisitOrs are left power
less to obtain them, which is doubly
Irritating because it is a consequence
of their own act of folly in 1905. So
what are they going to do about IT.
The action of Roosevelt naturally in
| creases the suspicion that there was
| something very "fishy" about the deal
/ but he has the law on his side and
proverbially warm place will probably
! freeze over before he will give w
those precious papers which sealed
the bond of eternal love between him
slf and Handy Andy, the Laird Of
SkibC.
