STATE INDIFFERENCE

Denver Times: Very gradually we
are drifting, not consciously moving,
to the condition in which the func-
tions Of the states and the west ern
states in particular-wil be afro
phied and rendered helpless from the
mere lack of exercise. The federal
control of interstate commerce is in
creasing in such large way that the
states Of the west have practically
abandoned commercial legislation of
any kind. The federal control Of the
forests on the public domain became
inevitable through our own inditfer-
ence to forestry and economic lum-
bering. A national bureau of public
health is now advocated because the
states -and, again, the western states
in particular-have refused to make
any adequate provision for the same
purpose. We nave ali got tine " " ASH
Ington habit very acutely in the west,
and. if we don't mend our ways, we
will awaken some morning to realize
that the Washington habit has be-
come chronic and incnrahis.

LAND BUYING
AN INVESTMENT

st. Paul Pioneer Press: James j.
Hill says it is not speculation for a
farmer who has money to buy land.
The talk about land speculation, he
maintains, is exaggerated, and he is
right. There are land companies and
land dealers who have bought and are
buying on the prospect of rise in
prices. They may be said to be spec
ulating, although there seems little
OF the speculative in what they are
doing. Speculation involves risk
and a chance that prices may go down
instead of up. With the present con-
ditions and the temper of the people
there is little chance for much of a
slump.
The man who buys a farm in the
northwest because he wants the land
is not very greatly concerned about
the market price of that land, after
he has paid for it. A farm that will
yield a steady income is no specula-
ton. 1t is an investment to the farm
er, and most of the land is being sold
to farmers. No rise III value will af-
feet the crop yielding quality Of the
land, nor will decline in the price
of the farm. The man who buys a
farm to till and to keep is after divi-
dends, and is not scalping margins
any more than is the man who buys
Great Northern stock and puts it into
the safety deposit vault as a revenue
producer. SO long as the investor
knows that the dividend is coming
regularly he does not worry about the
fluctuations of prices, for they cannot
hurt him-and the land buyers are
investors.

PETITIONS ARE REJECTED

The county commissioners of
Stanley county at night session last
night decided to reject all petitions
for county division on the grounds
that the three petitions, covering but
portions of the same territory, bring
up such condition that they do not
feel like authorizing any action which
may bring legal complications detri
mental to property interests.
This leaves any of the petitioners
who feel SO inclined an opening to go
into cu4lrt and ask mandamus
proceedings to compel the commits
sioners to act, and the petitioners for
Iowa county at least will take action
and those for other counties may do
so.

THE RAILROAD SITUATION

1t is predicted by President e. p.
Ripley of the Santa Fe System, that
within five years the Government will
own all the railroads in the United
States, He also declares that when
the Governor undertakes to buy the
roads it will be asked much larger
sum than the face value Of the rail-
road stock. In this statement as to
value, President Ripley is undoubt-
edly blut1ing as a salesman, but in
his first statement, that in few
years the Government will be forced
to own all the roads in order to en-
sure fair treatment of shippers and
travellers, he may not be so far off.
We do not advocate Government
ownership, if Government control
over private ownership can be made
effective. We do not believe that
Government ownership will give as
progressive administrative policy as
private ownership in competition
rival roads assures us. But if the
railroad managers who decide poll
cies are not fore-sighted enough to
see that they must serve the public as
we'll as themselves, Government
ownership is all we have left to fall
back upon.
There is good deal of blufling in
the present railroad situation. 1t is
announced that now all railroad
building in the Northwest has been
ordered stopped, and that 10000 men
are thrown out of employment, and
the railroad managers explanation
is that antagonistic Government poll
cies, in enjoining roads from raising
freight rates and the demands of men
for higher wages have made it un-
profitable to build any more roads.
The result of laying off thousands of
men will tend to lower wages and to
"throW a scare into the people
which the railroad managers prob
ably count upon as an effective way
of calling halt to unfriendly prose-
cution by the Government.
With the great crops of last year
and the excellent outlook for the ap-
preaching harvest it appears to an
outsider as more of a bluff than a
business policy to stop suddenly the
work Of building feeders to the
through lines in the Northwest.

RESTORATION OF THE MARKET

Many years ago every city had it's
market place, where farmers could
assemble and dispose of their
produc direct to consumers. In
some places these markets still exist.
The high cost Of food products, due
largely to costly distribution, has
created sentiment in favor Of restor-
ing the market place and opening it
to producers. No daubt such a
movement would meet with opposi-
Uion from distributors, and in some
eases it would not succeed because
both producers and consumers have
become accustomed to other ways.
to believe that public market place
open to producers or their represen-
tatives, would succeed in benefitting
all concerned. 1t is said that our
cities have grown SO big that farmers
cannot get to the market place. The
automobile will overcome that
difficulty whenever farmers have a
chance to sell their goods Withou t
paying excessive rates for stalls or
wagon space in a public market.
OF course not all foods can be taken
directly from the farm to the
consumer, but many of them can,
and if the market place is cheapest
and best for both sides that is
sufficient reason why it should be
restored.

INDUSTRIAL PROGRESS AND FARM.
ING.

While every business must depend
upon farming, yet profitable farmin G
must depend upon every other bust
ness Farming makes no markets
for farm products, and without
markets profitable farming is i'm
possible. Industrial progress must
come before there can be great
profits in farming. There must be
people to cat products of farms, to
wear textiles produce on farms.
No business is independent in the
sense that it may be profitable without
regard to other business. Every
business is lnseparably bound up
with others, and to claim indepen-
dence is folly.
Then, let us work for industrial
progress, and give encouragement
to investments of capital. The
Southwest needs capital, and manu-
featuring enterprise. If to secure
these, we grant the privilege of farm
ing limited partnership. cooperative
associations, called corporations, we
will be showing intelligence which
should mark the conduct of
our section. War against corpora
tions has gone SO far, that each day
newspapers show dissolution of
corporations, and reversion to the
untiquated partnership.

Brookings Register: The filing of

NACEL. OIL and Beer LAWYER
FOR u. S. SUPREME BENCH

WASHINGTON, Sept. 19.-The
name of Secretary Chas. Nagel OF
the department of commerce and
labor, has replaced that of the late
Solicitor General Lloyd w. Bow
ers as a prospective appointee to
the supreme bench. 1t is said that
President Taft regards him as a
lawyer worthy of place in the
highest court in the land. while at
the same time he considers the
present members of the circuit
court as ineligible for promotion
because they have passed on the
pending Standard Oil case.
Out in Missouri, Negel's home,
they regard him as Standard Oil
lawyer, for when Texas ousted the
Waters-Pierce company, after
proving it to be a Standard Oil
Subsidiary, Nagel fought every
action of the Texas attorney, and
later on when Gov. Hadley of Mis-
souri,, then attorney general of that
state. tried to put tho Standard
Oil Co. out of business in Missouri,
Nagel was the legal luminary at
the beck and call of the oil trust.
Until his elevation into the Taft
|cabinct, Nagel was also counsel
for the Anheuser-Busch brewery
at salary said to be $4,000 a
year.
Another interesting feature of
Nagel's career occurred In 1898,
when during the street car mems
strike he organized a company of
rs deputy sheriffs at his own ex-
pense and armed them with riot
guns, which, as he sgrimly told the
striking workmen, could shoot
seven bullets with every pull Of
the trigger" He ended the strike
all right in three short weeks.
Recently Nagel has been bitterly
attacked by DIR. w. T. Hornady,
of the New York
geological gardens. Hornady
charged that Nagel, after promis-j
ing congress that the seals of the
Pribilof islands should be saved,
employees of the depart
ment to slaughter 100 900 of them
and send the furs to London for
sale
