INCREASE OF RAILROAD
EARNINGS.

Once more it is difficult to under
stand why American railroads should
demand the right to increase freight
rates before granting increase of wages
According to their own organs, their
earnings are increasing prodigiously.
November is an important month in
the earnings of railroads. 1t catches
the final congestion of fall trade and
the beginning of winter, without en-
ordinary expenses of cold weather Big
earnings are expected in every Novem-
Der of prosperous year. But no such
increase over the previous year has
been known as that of 1909. The COM
parisOn is not with record low earn
ings because the revival of business
had begun in the fall of 1908, which
makes it more remarkable.
We are using the compilation OF the
New York Financial Chronicle from
81 per cent of the whole mileage To-
tai earnings for last November are
the largest in the history of the coun-
try. The increase over 1908 is 1874, 0O0,-
900 gross and nearly $19,000,0O0 net.
each increase being nearly three times
the largest November increase over the
previous year in record extending
fn 70 In, he III
enormous addition to their net revenues
why cannot the railroads advance
wages to meet increased cost of living
without raising their freight rates
We can imagine only one answer
That is, that they need all the increased
revenues and more to meet the enor-
nous demands upon them for expendi-
ture of money in extensions and bet
terments. Money for this purpose
must be borrowed and interest on the
bonds must be paid. The railroad arg
ument is that the only way to make
provision for it is to increase their
revenues. There is some justification
for this in the fact that two and a
listed in 1909, nearly double any pre-
vious record but that of the steel trust
year 1901.
There is also some justification of
the policy@of heavy loans and expendi-
lures in the fact that more than four
million dollars of the November gross
increase, and more than two and a half
millions of the net increase in each
case three times that of any other road
were made by the great railroad which
has issued stock and sold bonds and
spent money most lavishly in the last
ten wears

UNDER ARREST

Carrie Masters, Silvfe Chandler and
Bob Jones, who were arrested at ~:
o'clock this morning on the charge of
disorderly conduct by officer Ben AL
len, have been released on SO bonds
each, with instructions to appear in
this afternoon for hearing. The women
were CARRIED in mems clothing and
were parading on lower Main street,
when officer Allen recognized the
Chandler woman, and followed them
to a down-t town lodging house, where
they met another married girl in the
company of a man not her husband.
Both the Masters girl and Chandler
woman are married, and it is said the
husband of the former was aware of
her actions.
The matter was drawn to the atten-
ton of Officer Allen when he noticed
the Chandler woman dressed as man
in company with a man named Evans
from Touchet, parading the streets
These people were noticed by the off,
Ger to go to a room in the Alta house.
Following them to investigate the
case, as he was satisfied that one of
the men was in reality a woman, the
officer ran into their companions, Mrs.
Carrie Masters and Bob Jones, an en-
ployee of the Mint Chop house, who
were also occupying a room in the
same lodging house 1t was later dis
covered that Mrs. Chandler was wear
ing Jones' clothes.
Young Evans succeeded in making
his escape but Officer Allen arrested
the other three and took them to the
city Jail where they were turned over
to Sergeant Morse. 1t is understood
that earlier in the evening the hus-
band of the Masters women was with
the company and knew of the COM
pany which his wife was keeping. Later
this morning interested parties secured
the release of the young people by
furnishing bail.

THE GLAD HAND.

The Evening Statesman extends a
hand of fellowship to Mr.. J. c. Kelly,
who today purchased the Evening Bull
letin, and wishes him success in his
venture. The change in the ownership
and management is one that will be
welcomed by the progressive citizens of
Walla Walla and one that will make
for the advancement of this city
Mr. Kelly comes here from South
Omaha, where he has been connected
with an Omaha paper for seven years.
He has been in the newspaper business
practically all his life, starting in at
the bottom as a newsboy and working
his way up through the ranks. He is
known as progressive and enterpris-
-ng business man. one who confines
his efforts to business and his work
1t is understood that the policy of
the paper under the new ownership
will be that of advancing Walla Walla
as well as the selfish interests of it's
owner. And understanding this policy
as consistent with that of the other pa
pers in the local field, the Statesman
welcomes Mr.. Kelly to Walla Walla
and to its newspaper field.

Mine Owner Notified.

DENVER, Jan. 31-J. F. Welborn,
president of the Colorado Fuel & Iron
company, which owns the mine at
Primero where the explosion occurred
said tonight that only meagre infor
nation had been received by officials
at headquarters in this city. The ex-
plOsion occurred at 4:20 p. M, at a
time when small parties of miners
were leaving for their homes. For
this reason, said WelbOrn, he could
not even approximate the number of
men inside; nor could he say, from
the little information at hand, whether
or not there were any dead in the
mine. The three known dead were
killed at the mouth of the mine and
the force of the explosion tore them
to pieces. Welborn said he was un-
able to account for the explosion, as
all the miners used safety lamps. Men
from the other mines of the company
have been ordered to the scene to
assist in rescue work. According to
the latest information received by
President Welborn at o'clock, the
fan in the Primero mine, damaged
by the explosion had been repaired
and was in operation. The message
stated that rescuers had gone into the
mine, but none had yet returned. Wei
born said he expected no further news
tonight

BRITISH GOVERNMENT BY A CO
ALITiON.

Though the liberals retain power in
Great Britain, they will govern under
very different conditions. In the last
house of commons, they had a large
majority over all. The party could
carry out its own policy, on-y bound by
its campaign pledges.
AS a matter of fact, it did take labor
members and what are called socialists
into the cabinet and it did introduce
bills demanded by its allies, the Irish
and labor parties. But when these bills
the government could not be thrown
out by any detection of its allies. For
that reason it remained in power
through many years of barren service,
and was only driven to dissolve parlia-
ment at last by actual transgression
by the house of lords of the constitu-
tion.
In the new house of commons, the
liberal party will have fewer votes
IMAM the united Union OppOSINloH, anu
can form a government only by coali-
ton with the nationalist or TABOR party
or perhaps both. This will make il
weaker than it is now, because its al
lies can demand performance of
pledges and leave the government with
out a majority if it sumbit to veto Of
its measures by the house of lords.
Moreover, all its measures must be of
such a nature as to command the sup
port of the whole coalition.
In these circumstances the tempta-
ton will be to let useful economic and
social legislation go by the board and
appeal to the popular fancy with some
sensational crusade against the house
of lords, on which all the constituents
in the coalition can agree.

CRIMINAL PUNISHMENT OF d.
VORCE FRAUD.

The criminal laws provide no ade-
uuate punishment for the outrages in
ficted upon women by abuse of the
marriage and divorce laws.
This is recognized by juries in a
certain tenderness towards rash enter
prises of private vengeance. But, even
such as they are, these laws are too
seldom invoked The Indifference of
courts to purely domestic wrongs and
the shrinking of women from painful
publicity combine to protect offend
ers.
The remarkable exception now Of
fered in Chicago springs from the in
dignation of a cozened judge and the
resolution of the loyal family of the
abused wife The insane wife of the
broker Counselman, who trumped up
divorce for desertion to try and legal
ize another union as soon as it was
granted, has been restored to her full
rights and the other women relegated
to the status she held before. We do
not know what property rights are in
volved in the decision, but evidently
the male relatives of the wife are con-
cerned for her higher interests.
All kinds of criminal penalties hang
over the cOnspirator against domestic
decency. Disbarment proceedings men
ace the lawyer who faxed the divorce
proceedings, the recreant husband faces
punishment for contempt and indicr-
ment for perjury and charges of con-
spiracy wait for the whole gang.
This is a more tedious process than
that of the retributive shotgun, but it
is doubtful that the refinement of we'll
merited suffering it inf1icts do not fit
the crime better.

Weather Conditions.

The depression yesterday morning
over western Canada has moved
southerlv to the middle Rocky noun
tain region, allowing a strong area OF
high pressure to overspread the north
Pacific coast states. This movement
resulted in clearing weather and lower
temperatures in most portions of the
Pacific northwest. 1t is showing in
Nevada, southern Idaho and western
Montana. The high area on the Allan
tic coast has caused generally fair
weather and a fall of temperature in
that section. 1t is warmer between the
Rocky Mountains and the Mississippi
river. The conditions point to fairer
weather in this vicinity tonight and
Wednesday, with colder tonight.
