ANOTHER FOOL DECISION

HUU Hill 49,
The annual increase OF wealth
in these United States is put az
three thousand millions OF dol
lars. :,
It requires all the labor OF all
the people to produce this yearly
increase.
And it amounts to only three
ner cent. Toll as they may In
mines. mills and fields and for
ests, the millions of workers can
do no more than pile up a clear
gain of three per cent on the
sum total of the wealth we
already had.
Yet fool Judge in Missouri
has annulled a law OF tna1
sovereign State upon the gronno
that the statute in question did
not allow railroad corporations
to earn a net profit of 6 per
cent.
This judicial servant of lnccr-
porated capital gravely holds
out that the property OF the
railroads is confscation, when
rates are lowered by law TO
such point that net increase
of six per cent profits cannot
be gained.
The law which the Federal
Judge annulled does not strike
at the title by which the rail-
roads hold their property. Nor
does it interfere with the pos
session. The real estate and
the personally were left intact;
not a single foot of the right-of-
way was molested; not loco
motive, car or building was
touched. Yet a Court, presum-
ed to be sane, arrogantly null
lilies State law. on the ground
that it confiscates the property
of the corporation, because,
under the operations of the law,
the railroad cannot earn double
the amount of the average an
nual increase of wealth.
Such a decision shocks com
mon sense. Besides, it is a gross
perversion of the true intent and
meaning of the law. When the
rebellious barons forced upon
King John, at Runnymede. the
stipulation that no free man
should be disseized or deprived
