PASSES THE HOUSE.
Administration Railroad Bill Goes
Through by 200 to 1876.

Washington May 10.-The admins
tration railroad bill was passed by the
house today by a vote of 200 to 1875,
all of the Republicans, including the
insurgents, being Joined by IA Demo-
Gratis in passing the measure. The traf-

sion permitting railways to purchase
the stock of non-competing transpor-
tation companies were the chief fea-
lures Of the measure as reported to
the house committee on interstate and
foreign commerce that were stricken
out by the house.
In other respects the provisions OF
the measure as drafted by Attorney
General Wickersham at the instigatiOn
of President Taft and later amended
in committee, were but slightly
changed. The sections to provide for
the creation of a commerce court
were retained with but few amend
ments, as were the paragraphs plac-
ing limitations upon issues of stock.

DEATH OF ENGLAND's KING.

The death of Edward VII, Eng
lands popular monarch, last Friday
night closed reign which was notable
for its accomplishments in the few
years of it's duration. When Edward
succeeded to the throne upon the death
of his mother, Queen Victoria, in
1901, England had few warm friends
among the other great nations. but by
his diplomacy his social charm. and
his tact he has left it with alliances,
treaties and understandings that have
entirely changed lat situation to one
of friendliness with most of the i'm
portant nations. When he became
king and assumed the responsibilities
of the position the capabilities he
developed was surprise to the world.
His son, the Prince of Wales, who
succeeds him as king and who takes
the title of George, V is a man who
differs radically in his tastes and
habits from those of his father. He
was trained for a sailor but gave up
his ambition for a sea career when he
became heir apparent to the throne
upon the death of his elder brother
Clarence. He is blunt and democratic
in his ways and dislikes cerelnoniaIs
and red tape. He is 45 years of age.
The death of King Edward comes
at what appears to be an inopportune
time for the nation. politically, be-
cause it faces political conditions
that are more grave and important
than it has encountered before in
many years. What it may mean to
have the situation met by man who
lacks experience as does the new king
is an important problem.

Both of these men say they received
$1,000 for their vote, beside share in
a lack pot of poodle created by
holding up certain legislation for
price.
An vestigation will follow and
the covering witnesses that may be
brought before the inqulsitorial body
will tell more.
The men who have laid themselves
open to life long disgrace through
this affair must begin to realize how
pitifuily small thing is a public
office, even that Of a United States
Senator. as compared with the ignom-
my they must endure through their
connection with the affair.
Honesty is the best policy" may
he an old-fashioned idea in these days
of hypocricy and treason to party in
the political game as we are witness
ing its playing, but there has been
nothing in the trend of events to in
the least disturb the suggestion that
honesty is best after all.

The RRIRE IN POLITICS.

When the senatorial contest in the
Illinois legislature dragged its weary
course along week by week in the
shape of a dead Jock, and without
making choice for senator, in spite
of the fact that the people had
decisively said by their votes at the
primaries that their choice was the
republican who was at that time
representing the state in that position,
it was lparent that something rotten
was at the bottom of it.
And when the peoples choice had
been ignored and Lorimer was elected
by coalition of 5S democrates who
deserted their own candidate and
voted with enough republicans to
bring about such a result the belief of
rottenness became a practical GER
Cainty. 1t was considered good joke
on the republican party but it don t
look so funny now as it did then.
1t is now charged. and the charges
are being backed up. that the votes
which brought about the election of
the blonde boss" were bought and
paid for.
When Representative White. the
self confessed taker of bribe to bring
about this Joke first told his story
there was wagging OF heads and
many doubts of the truth OF his story.
When Beckmeyer. another democratic
representative, tells substantially the
same story and cUnfesses himself also
a bride taker for the sale of his vote
to Lorimer, doubts begin to disappear.

HIGH OR LOW PRICES?

This is an era of high prices for
nearly everything and tina high cost
of living, or as the term has been
paraphrased byJ. ]. Hill. the "cost of
high living" has aroused complaint
from one end of the country to the
other and created demand for in
vestigations of various kinds to ascer-
tain ths cause and if possible find a
remedy.
There is more than one view to be
taken of the high price situation.
however. If what we have to sell is
correspondingly as high IS what we
have to buy the chances ara even tina
we are as we'll or better off under
high prices than we are under low
ones. 1t has always been conceded
that the people and the country at
large was most prosperous during the
period of good prices. When every
body is making money they can also
afford to spend it.
The demand everywhere heard that
prices must come down. may be one
which we shall later look back upon
with regret and realize that it is a
mistaken demand.
It is not so many years ago that it
should have passed from our memory
only back to 1899 -when we had
our fill and more of low prices. not
only low prices for living but low
prices for everything. Property values
shrunk enormously and there was
little demand for it; the price of
wages sunk to very low ebb; hundreds
of thousands of men could not find
employment. Farming was unprof
liable because the pri ces for stock and
other things there produced were so
low. The fact that what one wanted
to buy could be had at a low price
was not encouraging when one
did not have the money to buy with.
And not only once or twice have
the same conditions occarrsd, but
upon every occasion in the Nation 8
history when the policy of protection
has been abandoned in order to
arbitrarily bring about a period of
low prices and a wide spread change
in values.
Hence there is food for rede ction in
seeing to it that prices aud values do
not go too far down when the
political effort to reduce them is
entered upon.
We are told by aggressive democrats
and some that are perhaps near
democrats but claim to be republicans.
that the full possibilities of low
prices shall be secured at once by
discarding protection and defeating
its representatives
There is no doubt that this would
BRING about just such . result. Lower
prices would come through quickly in
creased competition from abroad.
They would come through a food of
shipments from the mills and factories
from other countries. This would
bring about a lessened demand for
labor in our country, which always
means a reduction of wages and a
correspondingly lessened demand and
more restricted market for the product
of the farms, and then would come a
drop in prices of all such commodities.
History repeats itself and it is we'll
enough to pause and consider just
what Is best for us bsfore we clamoT
too loudly. Present prices in many
directions may be too high. but the
other extreme is far more destructive
one.
