Abuse of Long and Short Hanl

It was inevitable that the long and
short haul principle would have to
go to the United States supreme
court, where 1t is now pending for
final determination. The last con-
gress sought to untangle the threads
OF dissatisfaction, but failed utterly.

1t reversed the construction OF the

and Reno cases, brought as tests of
the clause.
The railroads never have succeeded
In convincing everybody that It is
fair to charge more for shipment
of freight from, say, Omaha to Reno,
than from Omaha to San Francisco.
That is the crux of the whole cues
ton. or course. the railroads Justify
their coast-to-coast rate by arguing
the effect Of water competition. but,
as the Interstate Commerce commits
sion effectively points out, to Justify
the rates from interior points to the
Pacific, they rely upon market COM
petition, under which they give
lower rates from all the interior
cities two-thirds of the way across
the continent to the same coast cities
than to inter-mountain points" And
this Is the kind of discrimination the
commission has tried to prevent
The commission makes the excel
lent point that the effect, IL not the
aim, of the. railroads has been to
build up the coast cities at the ex-
pense of those OF the interior, when
the latter are as much entitled TO
their help in development as are
those on the Pacific slope, Since they
are the heavier feeders, II would
seem they are entitled to little
more consideration. While, unques-
tionably, there are conditions under
which It is fair to charge more for a
short haul than for long one, undue
advantage has been taken of these
conditions and this law to the extent
OF abusing them. The supreme courts
action will be awaited with wide
spread interest.

The Snow and the Corn

The great snow is welcomed by
most people, among the exceptions
being the fellow who found himself
on the wrong side OF the corn mar
ket. And yet even he admits that
the snow is exactly what tangible
things need. Which moves one TO
observe that the weather OF the fall
and winter thus far has come very
near being ideal for the grain that
is In the ground and for the ground
that Is soon to have grain in It, as
we'll as for few other lines OF bust
ness. In this great Agricultural
belt the man in the city as well as
the one on the farm keeps his eve
close TO the soil. II makes a big
difference with him what the condl-
ton OF the weather is, how seasona-
bic It is, how well-timed are the
rains and SHOWS and sunshine. What
q lot OF talk there was upon the
heels OF the excessively dry summer
about the disaster that would fol-
low an excessively dry winter, brt
already the futility of such talk is
apparent. Providence seems TO be
looking after the weather and us, as
usual. The soil was well soaked a
time or two with autumn rains ana
has had some liberal eoatings OF
snow, this last one being general
from the Rockies to well into the
west. OF course, all this beautiful
snow is not urging the farmers to
haul their corn TO town. which ID
what bothers a good many men ao-
customed to listen TO what the tricky
little ticker has to say.

And get upstairs before / doff my over

But he is Johnny on the spot with paw,

He's eying me suspiciously, I really think
he tries
With all his youthful artfullness to take
me by surprise;
lie hasn't intimated yet that he has found
us out
But eyes and ears are open wide when
ever we're about.
I spelled phrase to mother once and
then he promptly said:
Il guess it's time now, Nav, for me to
go upstairs to bed,
An ! suppose that you an Paw will talk
out when I'm gone!"
I'd make an affidavit that the little ras-

tions calculated to effect remedial
legislation. II certainly is TO be
hoped that congress will eschew pol.
itics and act soberly upon this all
important subject. While adhering TO
the principle Of protection based upon
the difference OF domestic and for
eign production, the president is in
sistent on a material reduction OF the
wool duty. though he. wisely, we
think, refrains from designating the
exact rates to obtain.
The boards invest gation reveals
the fact that some of the wool duties
are not only too high, but positively
prohibitory. AS a result of this peo-
pie have been paying for quality of
cloth in this country that they never
got and many men and women who
Imagine that they wear the best
fabrics are clothed in very shoddy
goods. This comes, largely as the
president points out, from paying
duty on raw wool which contains inn
mense shrinkage powers and he sug-
gests two methods of improving upon
this particular item in the tariff.
Now. II congress will do its part, we
can get this wool tariff properly reg
ulated and IL congress does not do its
part, but chooses rather to play pol
tiles over the matter, the people will
know where to place the blame.

Crime is Crime.

Jrlme IS Urine.
Senator Borah's address on re-
spect for and enforcement OF law is
one Of the most trenchant nrraign-
ment's heightened outlawry ever
stood beneath. lie undertook to
show that long-studied violation OF
law by predatory interests was just
as heinous as deliberate violence by
obscure individuals. lie proved his
case conclusively. There is nothing
especially new in what the Idaho
senator said. but his pungency gives
a keenness to old truths which must
cut deep into the convictions OF the
people and make them think more
seriously upon this, one OF the most
important subjects demanding their
attention.
Some OF Senator Borah's state
ments are shocking. as, for instance,
that crimes committed by big bust
ness, that sits in the quiet OF It's
office with trained lawyers and
studies how TO violate the law, are
as bad as those done by the planters
Of dynamite. II takes the truth in
its most shocking forms sometimes
to force 1t upon people. Dynamiting
he condemns with fiercest invective,
but a thousand dynamltings would
not condone those other industrial
evils this country has complacently
put up with for so many years. The
dynamiters whined out the excuse
that they acted in the interest OF
business growth and Industrial prog.
ress. This is the best and only
plea of the other outlaws" says SEN
ator Borah.
More is expected, and rightly so,
Of the man in high place than of the
one who goes about to do violent
deeds. When, therefore, this one
OF whom more is expected devotes
himself. by the aid of keen lawyers,
to devise ways of doing what the
law says he shall not do, how is II
possible to say that he is not as bad
as the invasive criminal? His in
fluenee is more far-reaching. And
would there be so much of the other
sort OF crime but for this heightened
outlaw? This very thing, this pro-
fessional crime In the garb OF re-
spectabillty, has brought on us most
of the graver problems OF the day.
These interests have got to come to
a direct obedience OF the law OF more
serious consequences will ensue.
And 1t is arrant nonsense to say
that they, who can devise so many
ways Of beating the law, cannot find
one way to obey It. The antitrust
law is not all II should be, but II the
trusts had labored as hard to dis
cover how they might conform to It,
as they have how they might not
to II, we would have little
need now to complain of this law.
Senator Borah IL right--we do not |
so much need new laws and new !
principles as We need the old ones !
enforced and practiced. n the
trusts cannot by now see that they
have, by their defiant ignoring OF
statutes. created violent public senti-
meut, then their vision needs re-
pairing. Railing against legitimate
wealth and industry has no place in
the sanity Of this country, but the
law has got to come down hard upon
lllegitimate wealth and industry or,
as Senator Borah puts 1t, "the SOL
der called into the street to protect
property will fraternize with the
mob"
