If Eddie Collins can steal

to say that he could go through
the season in the National
league and pilfer at least $50
bases? II he continued his
average set against the two best
he would annex 124 stolen
bases and there are poorer

so SAYS A. E. STlLLWELL, PRES
IpENT OF THE KANSAS CITY,
MEXICO & ORIENT RAILWAY.
ROADS WANT SQUARE DEAL
Tells How Railroads Have Enriched
Kansas in the Last Ten Years
With Advance in Product Prices,
But Rates Remain the Same.

New York, Sept, 2i,-Arthur Ed
ward Sullwell president of the Kan
sas City, Mexico and Orient railway,
in an interview today made power
full plea for the railroads OF the
United States and a square deal
on the rate question, which he
stoutly maintains is necessary to
the business welfare of the nation
we need n business man at the
head of the government OF this
prosperous republic" said Mr.. still
well "Mr. Taft Is splendid gentle
man. with fine lumcial mind, but
his experience with law books could
not have been such as 10 give
him a correct understanding Of the
industrial needs Of the United
States. Only an organizer-a so
called captain of industry
sented by such types as the late
Marshall Field George NJ. Pullman,
Henry Westinghouse or Andrew Car
negie, In my opinion would have
the business judgment to guide the
country clear to the financial dis
turbances which are constant men
ace to our growth"
Mr.. Stillwell Is recognized here
Af thA
markalle figures in the transporta
ton world. He has built three great
railroads and has always worked in
dependcntly of Wall street. Recently
he turned author and wrote a book
dealing with the unsettled condition
of business, which he called, Con
fidence, or National Suicide" Five
editions have already been publish
ed, and for the sixth edition three
new chapters have been written the
titles of which are what Is Wa
ter?" Threatening Storms Can be
Ayerted," and Put 1t in the Speci-
fications.'
In discussing his campaign in be
half of the railroads, Mr. Stillwell
said.
Il will admit that state laws en-
able the state railroad to reduce
railroad rates and to take from cap
ital which is tied down and cannot
get away just earnings. But while
we are considering the so-callo j
swollen values of the railroads look
on the other side of the fence.
Land values in Kansas have ris.
en- in the last ten years by leaps and
bounds, due n great deal to splendid
railroad systems. Kansas has So
4SO. 900 acres of land There is no
doubt that 1t has risen in value $lj
per acre on an average, but call
the increase $40 per acre, this Is
an advance in land values in ten
years of $j24,SOO,oOO.
rs this swollen value?
IF it is fair for the farmer tC
have earnings on these increased
values it is certainly fair for the
railroads to also have at least the
same rate for freight per mile per
ton that they had ten years ago

at seems only fair that the rail
roads should want to share in this
increased prosperity. And why not?
Is not capital in railroads entitled
TO share in the prosperity as well
as capital invested in lands?
4 predict that If you attempt to
thwart these laws of just compcnsc
tion for all alike, you will see con
ditions arise that viii put land val
ues back and reduce prosperity in
every state.
Quoting extracts from the unpub-
llshed chapters of his book, Mr.
Sullwell added:
ut is claimed that the railroads
arc public necessities; If we admit
this. surely the capital that creates
public necessities should have as
fair a chance as money invested in
retail or wholesale trade.
1T Is mighty easy to pass laws
which pass a railroad over to n
railroad commission to run and reg
ulate the road as the commission
pleases.
III the present railroad restric
tiOns had been enacted ten years
ago. there would now be vast unoc-
cupicd empires In the west-giyen
over to the cowboy, the jackrabbit
and the coyote, where today are to
be found beautiful cities and mil
lions of people.
Mr.. Sullwell proudly declared that
the greatest satisfaction he had ever
obtained out of his profession OF
building railroads was in projecting
n trans portation line into a new and
undeveloped country and watching
the business growth which was sure
to follow. He paid eloquent tribute
to several Of the big railroad men
Of the country when he said:
Men like Ames of the Union
Pacific, Willard of the Northern Pa
cific, Huntington and Crocker of the
Southern Pacific, James j. Hill o.
the Great Western, Marvin Hugh
1T and b. +. Yoakum, are surely as
great generals as any this country
has ever produced. They have won
the noDlest victories from the soli-
tudes of the wilderness through de
ploying their armies of peace-the
railroad men"
Mr.. Stillwell makes this suggeG-
ton as a means of remedying the
conditions he considers unfayOrable
for railroads:
Il am in favor of controlling rail.
roads by fixed policy, making the
requirements everywhere the same
and as simple as can be framed in
order 10 execute the laws and guard
public safety. We have standard fire
insurance policies, which embody
fair conditions. Why can not the
United States and the railroads
agree on a fair contract between
the roads and states and govern all
by the same requirements?
why can not specifications as
for building, be mutually agreed up
on, so that when capital makes up
its mind to build a railroad it may
read the rules governing the in
yestment, and if it does not like
them, refuse to build or invest in
some other enterprise or so to Mex
ico Argentina or Canada, where the
building of railroads is cordially in
yited and heartily encouraged?
q do not say that all imposed
traffic rates are fair or unfair, but
there are hundreds of instances
where the state requirements as to
conditions are more unfair than the
rates"

The workingmen lost out in the
fight for higher wages at the meet
ing of the committee of the whole
OF the city council. last night, but
they assert that the controversy
was only the first round in battle
which they are bound to win in
the end.
1t has resolved itself into a con-
troversy between the moneyed in
terests of the city against the labor
ing class said a prominent union
man this morning. THE chamber
of commerce has come out in the
open as the champion of the mon
eyed interests"
Councilman Schaefer showed by
actual facts and figures last night
that a workingman cannot live as
he should, and support his family
on $2.75 a day with the present
prices of necessities. He brought
the question to the problem of beef
steak, flour and clothing for the
workingman and his children, and
showed that the present wage is
too low.
H. L. Hughes said a few things
about the chamber of commerce.

H. l.. Hughes said a few things
about the chamber of commerce.
You spend thousands of dollars to
advertise this city; you get work
ingmen here from the east to buy
real estate from your members at
q high price, or to pay you high
rents; your members who operate
stores here charge them an exorbi-
tant price for the necessities, and
yet you are not willing to pay
them living wage was the sub
stance of what he said regarding
the methods of that body.
He also said something about the
good salaries paid by the CONNER
cial body to it's officers, and show
ed that when the price of living is
taken into consideration, $3.50 in
Seattle or Tacoma is fully as much
as So in Spokane.
F. n. Chavez, business agent of
Federal union No. 12,222, and rep
resentatives of the other federal
unions and the transfers unions
also spoke for the workingman. Be
fore the close of the meeting the
cOuncilmen voted to ask Mayor
Pratt for recommendation as to
the raise in wages.

A fierce legal struggle is in prog

the attention of the whole labor
world. Recently the state law linn
iting the employment of women in
shops and factories to 10 hours per

by a Chicago court. Now the case
has been appealed to the Illinois
supreme court. The Illinois Manu-
facturers' association is attacking
the law. All the women's clubs. un.

for the latter have filed brief of
