Pennington School Clerk 0usted

On Saturday last, case was be-
fore County Judge Colman, where
by the citizens of the Town Of
Pennington wanted to Gust Chas.
Kuhn from the office of school
clerk of that town.
The trial was attended by a
large number of Farmin6ton resi-
dents, but the defendant Kuhn
failed to appear. the testimony
showed that Kuhn was secretary
of the school board, but refused
to sign orders for parties who
held contracts fer transporting
pupils to school. The citizens
held a special election and voted
nearly unanimously to transfer
5000 from the teachers salary fund
to the transportation fund, and
even then Kuhn refused to sign
orders. The case was very
tame affai. to what it would have:
been had Kuhn been present, but
the court decided in favor of the
plaintiffs and Kuhn was ousted
from his office, and under this
decision he will not be eligable to
hold that office again. The deci
sion was heartily received by SO
per cent of the residents of Far
mington. Joe Friend will no
doubt be appointed to fill the
Office for the baladce of the term.

Reinforcing the Commodity Clause.

The administration has lost no time
in making it plain that in case the
commodity clause of the rate law,
which has been declared imperative,
is turned TO account by the common
carriers to resume the evils at which
1t was aimed congress will be asked
to apply the remedy. AS the court has
sustained the principle Of the law
while holding that certain sections are
not as f~ar-reaching as they were sup
posed to be. IT would be a foolish
course for the carriers to disregard the
intent of the act, which was to prevent
discrimination. either direct or indi-
rect.
Right at the outset Mr.. Taft has
made It plain that he stands for the
square deal. He has no desire or pur-
pose to cripple in any way the legiti-
mate expansion OF the business of the
railroads, but the direct or indirect
ownership of producing companies
must not lead them into favoritism In
rates or transportation facilities which
will build up such industries at the ex-
pense. OF those otherwise owned. II
the railroads do not by subterfuge
evsde the privileges granted them I'M
der the present law, as interpreted by
the supreme court, there will be no
pressing pcessity for additional legis-
latlon.
1t is up to the railroads to prove
their good intentions and here Ia a
chance for them to show whether their
professions OF reform are earnest or

Changing immigration Laws.

The United States senate has re-
ceived and placed on file resolutions
of the legislatures Of Ohio and Penn
sylvania requesting more stringent
immigration laws. The congressional
commission appointed to investigate
the subject has not reported, but has
been holding hearings in a desultory
way. 1t is said to lean strongly to a
recommendation for an educational
qualification for immigrants. p
That some OF the prohibited classes
manage to work their way into the
country Is patent TO even casual OBJ
servers, but the fault, If my. lies with
the administration of the law or the
weakness OF its administrative fea-
lures. Without departing from the
long-established principle which the
United States has followed from its
earliest days, no restrictions can be
placed upon the entry of the honest,
able-bodied and industrious. Adher-
ence to this policy has been one of the
chief factors in making the United
States the great country which it is
today. Those who have come here
from abroad to take a mans chance
and become Americans have done fully
their share toward promoting progress
and developing our resources.
The greed OF steamship companies
and the lure(of opportunity have un'
qu~estionably landed many on oul
shores who are undesirable, but exist
ing laws are quite comprehensive
enough to exclude them. II necessar!
these laws should be more rightly ap
piled. Our free public school system
can and viii lsolve the problem o.
those aoainst whom no other charg'
than illiteracy can be raised.
At the most they will disappear
with the second generation. The hon
est, able-bodied and industrious immi

of weakness and the United StateI
cannot afford to shut them out.

Appeal in Missouri Rate Case.

The determination of Missouri to
appeal from the decision Of Judge Nc
Pherson, declaring invalid the 2-cent
fare law, must be encouraging to other
states, including Nebraska, which
have similar laws. Though all these
2-cent fare laws have not been assailed
as yet, II lie essential that 8 decisin on
the merits Of the principles involved
should be secured from the highest
court In the land.
That states have the right to regu-
late rates and on the other hand that
railroads are entitled to xac a charge
which will produce a reasonable re-
turn on invested capital are points no
longer contested, but on the contrary
have been definitely settled in the af-
frmative long ago. There are points.
however. in this case and others which
are likely to arise which have not been
adjudicated. and for the mutual bene-
At OF the railroads and the public 1t is
essential they should be decided at the
earliest possible date. The determine
ton of receipts from intrastate as dis
tinguished from interstate trafhc is
one which presents no serious diff
Guilty, but the ascertsining Of the net
evenue from such sources is a COM
plicated problem and the methods to
be pursued in reaching a conclusion
have not been definitely marked out
by the courts.
Interstate and interstate traffic are
carried on the same trains and the APP
portionment of transportation cost and
the fixing of a rule for dividing the
capitalization account between the two
sources of income are vital and unde-
termined factors in making equitable
rates. The sufficiency of the showing
by the railroads that the cost of carry
ing local business is much greater
than for through traffic, and II so how
much greater, is something the paying
public is inclined to, question, though
1t satisfied the lower court and was de-
termined in the decision reached by
the trial Judge.
The problem of rate regulation Is
SO complex hat no wholly satisfactory
outcome ear be expected 80 long as
two rate regulating bodies, the state
and the nation, enable the railroads to
play shuttlecock and battledore with
the two classes OF trafic in efforts al
dual regulation. So long. however, as
the two systems prevail It is desirable
that the points of difference be elm.
mated as far as possible by decisions
of the court of last resort.
