LET Well Enough Alone"

James J. Hill, president of the Great
Northern Railroad, said recently:
Think of the congestion in the cities.
How long can a nation survive under the
present conditions? We have few producers
and a multitude of consumers. | have
heard that 20 per- cent. of our people live in
city houses. should like to see the govern
ment spend millions of dollars to encourage
men and women going to the country and
live as God intended they should, raise chill
dren, produce grain, milk, meat. We have
millions of acres free and undisturbed
Yet the city idea, i'll Baltimore for
instance, is-''a greater BALTIMORE Il
Baltimore, in fact, that shall become
strong enough in the Legislature to
dwarf the State outside.
The true thing to do, however, is
build up and develop the country; make
farm life not only profitable but at
tractive.
To this end, the first step just now is
the forward one of keeping Baltimore
where she is-a part of the State de-
pendent upon the success of the whole.
That Is the relative location already
OF the farm and the mine.

The Baltimore Sun reports Baltimore
and Ohio official as saying that
As the Big Vein coal was the more de-
sirabe it was charged a higher rate than the
small vein product, so that the last named
would have an equal chance for competition.
The first named is more easily worked than
the other. which was also a consideration in
the railroad freight charges
What right railroad company has to
intervene between the owner of "the
more desirable" product and the owner
of the less desirable, and that il, the M
trreSt Of the less de$jrabie is one that in
the ordinary course of inquiry will be
hard to find.
1t is not strange, therefore. that under
the same system of ethics that the owner
of the Big Vein should be punished in
the sum of - cents a ton because his
mines are "more easily worked.
These funny statements, seriously
made, furnish excuse for the question
under what other business system, If
any, are railway freight rates made
punitive of superior merit?
What would be thought, for instance,
of the theory of charging i farmer living
near Baltimore the same rate of freight
on wheat that is charged the Washing
ton county farmer merely because the
latter lives farther from market?
Or of charging the one whose farm Is
"more easily worked more tranSporta-
ton than the other:
Under what law, business or other
wise, does a railroad company, chartered
by the State, become an arbiter of merits
in production and accompanying dement's

comprises seven members, and Allegany

Generally speaking, the project is
good, and from the public-eXpense point
of view. economical. 1t obviates also in
large measure the difficulty of securing
labor for such work.

leve they should enjoy preference, and
to that extent the policy is not popular.

I'm not ashamed to say
I'll never love another
In just the sclf-same way
There is no boy just like him,
Nor can there ever be
One that shall hold dcarer
In my poor memory.
He is a soldier-boy now,
And he is proud to say
I'm serve my country always
Fight for it any day
You know love YOU best, dear;
Your love to me means worlds
TO me your eyes are bluer

Perhaps I'd better whisper
I'm not aSham'd to tell
That Jimmie is my brother,
And I'm his sister Nell
