You do not see how this could hurt the rail
roads, but they don't want it done, and their
reasons are several.
In the first place when the accident was due
to carelessness the report would have to SO
show. If it was due to improper equipment
the fact would become known, and the rail
road might have to pay out money to make
its equipment what the law requires.
When people were killed or injured, there
would be no hiding the fact and the railroads
would have to tell about the butcheries they
committed.
With such rule in force, the railroads
could no longer follow their rule of keeping
everything about a wreck secret, not even the
number of passengers or employees killed or
injured.
They might continue to burn the wreckage
so as to destroy all signs, and they might con-
tinue to make every employee keep his mouth
shut about the accident, but they could not
keep the public from knowing the facts.
And such facts the railroads don't care to
have the public know.
We note with pleasure what seems to be
movement among the farmers to agitate a
Parcels-Post.
Many of the leading agricultural papers
are taking it up and urging their readers to
vote for congressman who will promise them
to support such bill, and asking them to
make all candidates for Congress declare
themselves on the question.
This is good way to get Parcels-Post,
and once the people are made to see what
benefit it will be to them, they will no more
do without it than they will without the pres
ent r. f. D..
But in voting for Congressman who prom
Use to support the Parcels-Post the farmers
must keep their eyes open and see that the
goods are delivered, for some men have a
great way of changing their minds after
reaching Washington and becoming acquaint
ed with the willy agents of the Trusts,-such
as the agents of the express companies, who
want the Parcels-Post about as much as the
Steel Trust wants Free Trade
With the Parcels-Post in effect, the express
companies will lose thousands, and the Postal
Department will make millions. Where we
now have postal deficit of millions, which
is charged up to the r. f. D., we will have
a surplus of millions.
J. P. Morgan has been buying up the farm
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1910-02-10

ers' teiephoRe lines in different IS sections Of
the country, and it has caused much specu-
lation as to what Morgan wants with these
rural telephone companies.
The answer is easy. The lines are now pay
ing goodpro and the profit is increasing
from year to year. By buying now, he can
get control of these different properties at a
low price, and it will not be long before he
has enough of them under his control to
merge them into big Trust and thus make
another step forward toward controlling all
of the public utilities of the country

So some of the railroads are making fight
because the Georgia State Railroad Commits
sion thinks of making rule that will require
the railroads to report each accident the kind
of accident and the number of people killed
and injured.

The Wage Problem.

The 6 per cent advance of wages
by the Pennsylvania railroad to en-
ployeS earning less than $500 per
month, followed by a like advance
to Reading employees, appears to be
infectious. 1t is announced that the
United Steel corporation and other
large employers are considering the
deSirability of a like advance. The
Berwind-White Coal Mining Co. has
announced a voluntary 6 per cent
raise for its 1000 employees. The
increased cost of living furnishes
the leverage for lifting the wage
rate. AS a means of forestalling
labor troubles and of quieting
apprehension of consequent bust
ness embarrassments the unsolicit-
ed tender of better wages will no
doubt have its intended effect.
Confidence begets confidence.

Butter to be Cheaper.

New York, April A. Dealers on
the wholesale butter market here
predicted today that as a result of
the reduction in the tariff on cream
from II to 5 cents a gallon there
will shortly be large quantities of
cheaper butter offered consumers in
New York, Chicago and other cities
within a reasonable distance of the
Canadian border. A chain of cream
cries, it is said, will be built along
the Canadian frontier which will
make butter from Canadian cream
and be able to market their pro-
duct at a reduction of Is per cent
from the current price.

rigidly enforcing the Sherman anti
trust law and thereby placing some
big rascals behind the bars.

Every citizen of Monroe City
should be interested in making our
city more beautiful and more
healthful The hot weather will
soon be here. There are many
places not as clean as they should
be are in fact germ breeding places
which later on will cause much
sickness and probably deaths. The
afflicted ones may be of your house
hold even though you may keep
your place immaculate. So the on
ly way is for the city officials to
see that there is a general cleaning
up under the supervision of the
City Board of Health. 1t should be
done at once and then be kept
clean.

Canning Rhubarb

1t is a good plan to can rhubarb
when it becomes cheap. 1t can be
boiled and sealed in glass without
adding sugar. Later it is useful in
forming the bulk of acids and but
tiers. 1t is very nice to mix with
berry jeIlies. and imparts the de-
sired amount of acidity in plum,
cherry and peach iellies which often
turn to a thick, striney syrup and
will not jell without acid. Slender
rhubarb is finer grained than very
thick stalks, and requires less sugar
to sweeten it.

The postal savings bank as pro-
posed will be an injury TO the peo-
pie. In every town and city in the
United States there are local banks
that are safe, sound and in every
way better fitted to care for the in
terests of the people than would be
the proposed postal savings bank.
The best interests of the people will
be best cared for under the pres
ent system.

There is no reason why American
produced meat should sell at 20 to
so per cent higher to American
laborers than the same meat is sold
for in England. This is not the
only American product that is sold
cheaper in foreign countries than in
America. For this our Republican
tariff laws and Republican made
trusts are responsible. How do the
people like it?
