olong 1t even beyond 200 years by
trick OF the imagination, Is easy in
deed.
But it Is safe to say that while the
vast majority of people viii share in
Mr.. wu's ambition to glide into hon
ored old age, they will not care to
follow the abstemious rules he has
laid down--and therefore they will
keep right on living as their fathers
have lived before them--and likewise
dying just as the example has been
set before them.

TAFTs MoDEsTY.

Mr.. taft, now that he is president
elect, and has had time to rest up
from the fatigues of the campaign, is
a little bit amazed to find himself in
so advanced position before the eyes
of the world. He cannot understand
why he has been so successful in life.
He does not think that he deserves all
the glory that has come to him. How
refreshing is such real modesty! There
are many men who, e called to the
presidential chair, would only wonder
why Dame Fortune had been so tardy
in ringing their front doorbells.

suit is well rounded. coherent work
with logical story. plenty OF comedy
and teeming with thrilling situations
without being In any sense q melo-
drama. Texas has been mounted
splendidly, all OF the scenes having
been painted from photographs taken

THE LEGISLATURE.

With the speakership disposed of the
members of the legislature now have
the decks cleared for action. There
will probably be the usual adjourn
ments for the selection of committees
and the members will hurry home to
get some more advice from their con-
stituents. They will return loaded for
bear and be in shape to fill the hopper
with a grist Of bills that will keep the
legislative mills grinding till the final
adjournment in March.
There is much needed legislation
this winter. 1t is hoped the members
will prove conservative and patriotic
and work for the real benefit of the
state rather than to boost private and
pet measures.
There are many former members of
the legislature in the present body.
They have the advantage of former
experience and will be in shape to do
some excellent work during the ses-
sion.

Kansas Will Wait.

Topeka. kan. March S.-The senate
committee on railroads today submitted
an adverse report OF, the twO-cent fare
bill which has already passed the house.
This came Immediately upon the receipt
of the news of the decision of Judge
Mcpherson holding the Missouri two
cent fare law unconstitutional
Governor Stubs gave out an Interview
in which he said.
Ny opinion that the legislature of this
state should enact a twO-gent fare law
is not changed by the decision in the Mis-
souri, case I don't believe the court OF
Missouri has any evidence that the rate
in that state was not remunerative OF
confiscatory. excepting what evidence the
railroads themselves furnished"
Kansas now has two-cent fare rate
under an agreement between the rail-
roads and the state pending the decision
in the Missouri case.

'All l can say at this time" said the
governor, is that the decision is not q
correct one. 1t does not end the fight
however. The state will surely appeal

Commenting at some length on the de-

While the decision of Judge McPhar-
son is simply the opinion of one Judge
it must be accepted as the law until the
questions involved are submitted to the

That ] think the decision is wrong
goes without saying. The claim that the
rates fixed by the freight and passen-
ger rate laws were unreasonable low
and therefore cOnfiscatory was based
upon expert testimony as to how the
common expenses should be divided be
tween state and interstate traffic The
theory of the railroad experts is that the
expenses common to the state and in
terstate traffic should be divided in pro-
portion to the revenue produced by the
two classes of traffic with an added in

Wrong Theory.

This theory seems to me manifestIy
wrong and absurd. as its necessary and
logical result is that the higher the rates
and the greater the revenue produced by
state traffic. the larger would be the
amount of expenses assigned to that traf-
fic. A number of the witnesses for the
railroads testified that the only way that
the rates for the state traffic coul0. be
made remunerative would be to make
them so high that they would be pro-
hibitye.
1T would therefore. be just as easy
for the railroads to prove by this theory
that the three-cent law was unreasona-
bic as to prove that the tWO-ceut law was
too low. The state comedies that the ex-
penses of doing state business should be
determined on the basis OF cost of ser
vice rendered to the two classes of traf-
fic. The question as to how those ex-
penses should be divided was the one
controlling question involved in the lit
igation. SO it is apparent that these
laws which were regularly enacted are
declared imperative on a theory support
ed alone by the testimony of the expert
witnesses. So long as this method OBJ
taiuS. the right Of the states to regulate
the charges Of public service corporations
doing business therein amounts TO but
little or nothing.
