the one-hoss shap. ''all at once and
lust at first, as bubbles do when they
burst" This most interesting book
then relates that In 1879 Prussia, with
but q single dissenting vote, rejected
q bill for government ownership OF
railways, and In less than six months,
by an almost two-to-one vote, ADOPT
ed It
In June, 1908. Italy rejected govern
ment ownership, and on April ~. 1905
adopted 1t.
In 1892 Switzerland In a referendum
vote overwhelmingly defeated govern
ment ownership, but IN 1897 the meas
ure was adopted by huge majority.
Judge Van Wagenens explanation
of this suddenness, which Is feature
OF this policy of adopting government
ownership, Is that the private rail-
ways, with their power OF manipula-
ton, generally hold on until the senti-
ment OF the people Is Overwhelmingly
against them, and 80 when 1t does
come, government ownership comes
suddenly.
In one Of the ablest chapters in the
book this thesis is supported:
Private management is beginning
to demonstrate to a degree that can
not be longer overlooked. its lack of
capacity to minister to the wants OF
our rapidly developing country" Pri-
vate management, he says, has built
railways without system; built paral'
lei lines with childish folly; failed In
enterprise except when permitted to
"cut melons or steal lands as a bon
us for enterprise; built up cities In
some localities and denied cities the
right to exist In others; made trans
portation doubly laborious in order
to get along hauls both ways, and
then failed TO build so as TO take care
OF the extra laborious traffic.
Transportation" says he, IL II
ever was a legitimate field for private
money investment, has become now
not a private matter. but a means On
doing all other kinds OF business"
In other words, the railway IL tool
which every man has TO use. This
book says that It should not be Left
In private hands.

The book then goes on to show that
the only first-class powers which do

The funds for this campaign
were contributed by some of the

RoUsNG COMMITTEE MEETING
Epthusiastio Preparation OF Plans
Taken Ur--Itinernry OF Nearly
5000 Miles Contemplated
for Ten Days Trip.

An extensive trade excursion In May to
northern Nebraska and South Dakota Is
row assured by the Commercial club. When
Chairman Hayward of the Trade Excursion
committee OF the club called his fellow
workers toEethers for a meeting Thursday
noon, ne was swept off his feet, Negatively
speaking, by the enthusiasm with which
each OF the dozen members took up the
subject Of an early trip.
Among those present who participated In
the deliberations were c. E. Bedwell, W. e..
Rhoades. J. II. Wright, A. w. Carpenter
q. r. Gering, II. ]. Hoel, o.. ". Dunn, E..
A. Hatfield, @. H. Pratt, D.. b Fuller, ]. H..
Taylor and J. M. Guild, commissioner of
the club.
This bunch OF hustiers got down to bust
less In a hurry as there were Included In
me list. q few veteran trade boosters who
have been long active in assisting in the
trade expansion Of Omaha, the market
town. II was Immediately determined to
have a trip during the latter part Of May,
one OF not less than n weeks duration as
II, was thought best to cover enough terri
.ory, both old and new, to Justify elaborate
preparation and carefully laid plans to
make them worth while.
A committee with Dan B. Fuller as
chairman was named to frame up a
tentative itinerary to include about $500
udles on the Milwaukee and Northwestern
IN South Dakota and Nebraska. The other
members Of this working crew are F. j..
Hoel, J. II. Wright. jr.; f.. A. Hatfield
n W. B. Tags.
That no time might be lost a meeting Of
the committee was called for last evening
at the Commercial club, where in conjunc-
ton with George F.. West Of the North
western and W. r. Book Of the Milwaukee
they worked until midnight. Secretary
Stryker Of the Live Stock exchange and J..
NJ. Guiid, commissioner of the Commercial
club, met with the committee. A com
mittea appointed at noon and meeting till
midnight Is. a sample of the way the Com
Enerolal club committees are now working.
A course Of action is outlined and i'm
mediately carried out.
Before the committee had completed its
iabors It found enough territory to occupy
the tina for a ten days trip to round It up
IN good shape. The tentative itinerary in
cludes one Sunday spent at Hot Springs. s.
D., for q rest.
While the schedule on its face is quite
strenuous, It has been prepared with the
idea of making It less arduous THAI some
Of It's predecessors. Longer stops and less
towns per day are some OF the chief con-
etderations Of the schedule makers. A
draft OF the committees findings will be
worked out and presented to the trade ex-
tension committee early next week.

4 Will Create a
I Sick Baby Camp

sort for Little Ones in the
Summer.

IAN out-of-door camp for sick babies will
be added TO Omaha's philanthroplc provi-
sion this summer The Visiting Nurse as
ISOLATION Is behind the project which 1t
hopes to mako a reality by the time warm
weather comes.
1t is planned to secure some shady,
grassy plot within easy access Of the car
lines and not too far out. and there to in
stall an open air nursery where the babies
OF working women and other tots who
might not otherwise be able to have the
pure. out door air necessary, may be
brought and cared for by trained nurses
during the day. A kitchen will be equipped
where the right kind OF food may be pre-
pared and provision may also be made for
housing temporarily delicate little ones
whose homes do not afford the care their
health requires.
This department probably will be launched
with ten beds. Several locations are being
Considered by the nurses. but nothing def
mite has been decided upon as yet. Last
summer the nurses found sixty babies that
required care their homes could not pro-
vide n the association deems a summer
out door camp necessary.
The first step toward providing such a
camp viii be to raise the necessary funds,
and wednesday evening. March 16, Mrs.
Edith Wagner, pianist, assisted by other
professional talent, will give a musicale in
the Auditorium of the Young Women's
Christian association to this end. The
musicale will take the place Of the Visiting
