f1nement there and only the members
of his immediate family were allowed
to see him. On Nov. 8, when he was
removed to Washington in private
car, physicians declared he might be
able to take his seat in the senate at
the opening of congress.

hat no one dared raise voice in it's
defense. Mr.. Elkins was the first to
respond to this challenge.
Mr. Elkins was born in Ohio in 1S41.

not only on it's lines, but also on those
of connecting lines, was declared to
be constitutional A stubborn fight

More Light on Mul.imillions.

In 1893 period Of reckless railroad
competition ended In crash. ROADS
had been uselessly parslleled, money
borrowed on ruinous terms, rates
often cut to . point where business
was done ut q loss. The result was
we'll nigh univeral railroad bank
ruptcy.
That was the moment when Uncle
Sam should have stepped In, IS the
government di in Prussia and brought
order out of chaos. But The didn't.
Some one had to tackle the job.
It was big job for big men-to re-
organize the tangled wreckage and
shaoe it into o harmonious system
of transportation, stretching from
ocean to ocean, from lakes to gulf.
Well, we had the big men and they
did the big job Morgan, Hill, Har-
riman, Schiff and others. They gave
the United States the finest system of
railroads in the world, and we're re-.
warded with multimillions.
A part from the very high order OF
org AIMING capacity required for the
work, what did these men have to pos
sess in order to pick up the bankrupt
roads. place them on q footing OF
high efficiency, weld them together in
to a gigantic entity, and stand forth
at last with the prize Of a century IN
their hands-the monopoly OF con-
tiuental transportation?
.sMoney-millions OF it," you say.
No; something rarer than that
financial genius. OF course, they had
some money OF their sown-a little,
comparatively--but no man nor little
group OF men had. money enough
for these tremendous operations,
running away up into billions OF
dollars. These bankers and
tinanciers had the genius-for it's
genius as the poets, the artists, the
musicians, the statesman's-to invent
a system by which they could command
the money and the confidence OF the
world for their transactions, and still
retain control for themselves.
And this is how they did it:
They sold bonds, not stock, IN pur'
chasing railroads at bargain prices.
Bondholders, you see,' not owners
but creditors. They have nothing to
say about management, so long as
their interest is paid, and no share in
the profits.
So it happened that few men,
owning stock that was largely
"water," stood secure in the control
of the railroad monopoly Of the United
States, gathering to themselves all the
profits that accrued with the growth
of the nation.
Seventeen years ago. the nation It.
self might readily have bought up the
railroads for o ''song," fioated It's
bonds at lowest interest rates, sup
piled transportation at cost, and de.
livered the country from the perils OF
monopoly and political corruption.
But that water went past the mill long
since. 49,.

These are the concerns that have pre-

they wont allow the Government TO go
into the parcels carrying business at
reasonable rates, as is done in almost
every civilized country in the world

permitted these express companies to
control the mail business, as they do the
