Speed in Freights.

When the men who had faith in the
development of water transportation
on interior rivers began to look at the
subject narrowly they came upon a
few surprising facts which dissipated
part of the idea that transportation
was synonymous with railroads. They
found that, while a car and a locomo-
tive could be sent along fast. the prac-
tical movement OF freight trains was
slow, perhaps not beyond an average
speed of twenty-five miles a day, On
the Seine and Rhine the freight boats
often exceed the railroads in regular
freight schedules. The difficulties and
obstacles to navigation on these rivers
are familiar to travellers,

sue the same plan, they seek for such

For example, freight is often carried
from New York by rail to Buffalo, then
by lake to Chicago and rail TO ST. Louis
or by rail TO Pittsburg and river to 81
Louis; or by ocean route from Boston
TO New Orleans and river TO 81. Louis;

Among bankers and others who handle

here and abroad, there is common agree
ment that enormous sums Of French and
English capital are being transferred TO
this country for permanent employment
here, There are various reasons for this
shift Of capital. The productive fields Of
the United States are so naturally rich,

the better chance, for capital out OF en-

POLITICS AND PERJURY.
Basty Charges of Graft Bring Trouble
TO the Maker.


ST. Paul Dispatch.
A Madison, wis, Judge has sentenced
a politician to spend three years in the
penitentiary for the crime of perjury. 1t is
a pity that there are not more such con-
victions. Perjury is one of the most per-
nicious crimes on the calendar. It strikes
at the very foundation Of justice. The per-
jurer is the arch enemy of equity and fair
ness and should be treated as such when
ever he shows his head. The courts are
altogether too Ienient in the case of those
who give false testimony. Frequently, OF
course, it is difficult TO know just which
witnesses are lying when their testimony
conflicts. But If more effort we're made to
punish those who testify carelessly there
would be fewer reckless statements made
on the witness stand
The Wisconsin man who has been SEN
fenced to prison was one of those who at
tempted to show that legislators had re-
ceived money in connection with the cleo
ton of Senator Stephenson. 1t is bad enough
for the friends of a prisoner to strain their
memories and Consciences in the effort to
save him from the consequences of his
crime. 1t is possible to feel q bit sorry for
such witnesses. But no sensible person can
nave anything but contempt for a witness
who will lie in order to aid in securing Il
conviction. Justice demands that nothing
but the truth should be told by witnesses,
and the courts awe it to themselves and 10
the public TO put a stop to perjury.

The Two Opinions.

Two opinions have Just been handed
down by the state supreme court in
connection with the decision rendered
nearly two months ago setting aside
the s~o-oalled nonpartisan judiciary act
because of it's fragrant unconstitution-
ality. The majority opinion, in which
all of the judges who heard the case
but one concur, states in plain and
convincing language the law involved
in the points presented along the lines
indicated at the time the decision was
rendered. II holds that the so-called
nonpaTtisan judiciary act collides with
the constitution in three places.
First and foremost, it violates the
right Of free speech.
Second, it violates the right Of free
assemblage ito consult for the com
mon good and protection of govern
ment."
Third, it invades the guaranty Of
free elections.
The attempt to prohibit political
parties through their committees, pri-
maries or conventions from endorsing,
criticising, or even referring to candi-
dates for once, is not upheld even in
the dissenting opinion. The limita-
ton of signers to nominating petitions
to not more than 500 in any one
county DISTINGUISHES all voters in eX.
cess of that number from participating
in such nominations n discriminates
between voters in such a way as to
amount to an impediment Of free cleo
tions.
The dissenting opinion, 1t should be
noted, is filed by the one Judge rum
ming for reelection on the democratic
ticket. For the most part II reads
like a stump speech rather than a
legal argument or presentation of the
law and is grounded on the assertion
that the constitutional features of the
law might be eliminated by judicial
legislation without completely destroy
ing the other parts, particularly the
provision for a separate ballot without
party designations for candidates fol-
judicial and educational ofices. The
opinion of the court points out clearly
that the moving clause OF the whole
enactment was the constitutional pro.
hibition of party nominations, as is ex.
pressly declared in the act itself, and
that even without this the whole law
would have to fall because SO mex.
tricably intertwined with the invalid
features, and would furthermore be
absolutely unavoidable in the form fol-
which the dissenting Judge pleads.
The fact is that the so-called non.
partisan judiciary act was from star

designed. not to promote nonpartisan.

dates. We are convinced the dissent
, ing opinion in this case would never

the democratic pretense of nonpar

learned that railroad freight service
became faster when water relieved the
railroads of low-class commodities.
England demonstrated the fact on the
Manchester canal and both Germany
and France made It evident On all
their improved waterways. Not only
is the rail service faster. but It is more
profitable. Railroad dividends increase
when the cheap freight In large guam
titles is carried in barges.
Rivers must have channels, the af-
fair Of the government, but they must
also have warehouses, unloading ma
chinery and other facilities, which are
the affair of municipalities and local
effort.
B. F. Yoakum, another St. Louis
man, who, being a great railroad man
ager, makes light Of water carriage,
has just made an address before a
convention r%idiculing the wsstefulness
of the unintelligent efforts of the gov
eminent in improving the interior
rivers and pointing to the high perfec-
ton of railway service along the banks.
The answer, obviously, is that the peo-
pie should compel the government to
proceed with system and economy to
get the best results from the great
rivers which penetrate the whole vast
basin between the Alleghenies and the
Rockies. In the new era of waterway
improvement these old neglects and
mistakes will not be repeated.
