Railroad History.


In THE DEVELOPMENT OF IN
DIvIDUAL CHARACTER, in the up
building of every country, and in
the progress of every town, there
comes a time when questions
must be met and satisfactorily
answered so that a line of sue
cess and progress will be reach
ed. That crisis is now before
every citizen of this County, for
all are directly or indirectly in
terested. This county, for years
and years, has been trying to WOO
a railroad through her districts,
until at last the actual work on
one is being done north of Bea.
yer River about eight miles. A
short sketch of the efforts that
Beaver City alone has put forth
to induce the building of a rail.
road, and the money they have
raised and spent towards that
end, is given, so that all may see
and know that it has taken labor
ard courage, to say nothing of
the loyal and generous support
of the people of this county.
In 1908, Beaver City, at cost
OF 100000, secured the first sur
vey up the Beaver river. In 1905,
Beaver spent 81 900 in trying to
get railroad here, and at that
time the prospects looked bright,
for $l3S,000 in bonus notes was
raised in Beaver County. A
money panic defeated this pro.
ject.
Next came the Tack, of Wich.
ita, project, in 1908, and Beaver
City spent another 81 900 in cash.
This movement merged into the
Beaver Valley & Northwestern,
and Beaver City spent $4,000 in
making l03 miles survey, having
bonds printed, and getting the
bonds guaranteed by surety
company. In working on this
plan, the people of Beaver Coun-
ty signed SS5, 900 in bonus notes.
This plan, like its predecessors,
failed, Beaver City spent 500
in investigating an inter-urban
line to Meade, Kansas. 1t spent
$500 working on the Wichita
Falls & Northwestern; and 500
in starting a spur from Beaver
City to the road north, and which
is still pending.
Thus it Is seen that Beaver
City has expended in cash over
$4,000 towards getting rail.
road through Beaver County, and
the people of the county have
signed over S223,00 in bonus
notes, and because these prcpo-
sitions failed, all of these notes
were null and void, and not pen
ny has ever been expected to be
paid, and they have all been re-
turned to the makers of them, or
are with the Commercial Club,
subject to the order of the
makers.
Now, another railroad has sub
mitted another proposition to
Beaver County, and il the terms
of that are met by the people, we
will have another road. The
proposition briefly stated is, that
if Beaver County will give the
right of way through the county
and 100000 in bonus notes, the
st. Louis, Oklahoma & Pacific
Railroad will be built from Alva,
Oklahoma, through Beaver City,
Hooker, and on to sDes Moines,
New Mexico. Thus the state

almost impossible to spare him."

THE LIMIT FOR GASOLINE PRICES.

m JTOMOBIlISTS have become a numerous and influential
f7\ class in this country and they have State and national
associations. They can influence legislatures and NUM-
cipal boards in the making of laws and ordinances. But in the
presence of one power they are impotent. and that power is the
Standard Oil Company, which supplies the gasoline for their
machines. Every cent added to the price of gasoline increases
the cost of motoring and is so much more a tax on the motorist.
Nine cents a gallon was considered a top price a year or so ago.
The price has been steadily increased by the trust, until it has
more than doubled. There is no legal restraint on trust greed,
and as every penny of advance in price represents in the aggre-
gate an enormous increase there is every incentive to put the
price up higher and still higher. T%hirtycent gasoline is prom
Used in New York, and corresponding prices will be charged
elsewhere; but there is a limit somewhere to trust greed. 1t is
the point where prohibition of the use of gasoline begins. just
as the wool and cotton trusts keep their prices a shade lower
than the figures that foreign goods can be imported at, so
Standard Oil prices will not exceed the point where the use of
gasoline would have to be abandoned by the motorist and the
general consumption would decline. Meanwhile the owners of
automobiles are asked by Attorney General Wickersham and the
President to believe that government prosecution of the Stand
ard Oil has smashed the trust.

. POLICE PROTECTED TRUST.

sMSNNE of the developmentsof the police situation in New York
j is the existence of a trust in control of houses of infamous
resort. The trust is conducted on business principles by
an executive board and it's unhappy slaves furnish the profits.
AS the dens controlled by the trust do not hold their inmates
long there is need for a system of recruiting. and hence the white
slave traffic that philanthropy is endeavoring 10 stamp out. A
percentage of the profits of the trust has been regularly paid
for police protection, and there are officials in the New York
police department who have this filthy bride money in their bank
accounts. Are there any deeper depths of infamy for the probe
of investigation to go?

THE BULL MOOSE IN RHODE ISLAND.

cT1 HAT the Bull Moose has it's lair in Rhode Island. the
typical reactionary State, was plainly evident at Provi
dence last night, when the Bull Moose candidate and
champion appeared in that city, was greeted by huge crowds
and addressed a great audience that applauded TO the echo the
words he uttered from the platform. When last Roosevelt made
a campaign he spoke only TO Republicans. In the campaign he
has now entered upon he will make his appeals to voters of all
parties. In Rhode Island he was expected to meet his least
responsive audience, but the turnout in the city in which Presi-
dent Taft praised Aldreh as one of the greatest of living Ameri-

Says Cops Helped Rowdies.

Says Cops Helped Rowdies.
To the Editor Of the Evening Star
Sir-Unfortunate indeed is the M.
litical party hat holds forth no eraft
for its followers. Not only does II
receive the ridicule of hoodlums. hut
even the protectors of law and order
despise and vent their spite on it.
This was clearly shown to a crowd
of about 200 peaceful citizens who
were listening to a Socialist speaker
at an open-air meeting. corner Bel
mont avenue and Court street. ON
Thursday, August 16.
AS usual, Newark Is always repre-
scented with a few rowdies at these
open-air meetings, who make II their
business to be as noisy as possible
and to annoy the speaker. Unfortu-
nateiy for this particular speaker
there also happened to be present
several representatives of Newark's
police force, with all the shining ac-
coutrements that go to make up
these important champions of law
and order. The speaker appealed to
the police to rid him of the rowdies
who were breaking up the meeting,
but the police evidently thought It
was a great joke, for the only re-
sponse he got was a haunting laugh.
The speaker then asked If the po-
lice were not there to keep order. in
stead of encouraging disorder. When
he said this a spectacular scene was
enacted. The speaker was bodily
dragged off the platform by the po-
lice, hustled into a patrol wagon and
taken to the station. while the crowd
was told to go home.
Never as yet have / witnessed or
read of a Republican or Democratic
speaker being bodily dragged off the
platform by the police, before the
very eyes of the assembly he was ad-
dressing. for no other reason than
asking for the protection of the po-
lice, which is certainly due to every
body.
Perhaps I may be wrong, and
should have said that police protec-
ton goes only to those who are not
socialistically inclined. At any rate,
the police know that Socialists offer,
the stepping stones to promotion.
and as spectacular arrests are always
commended and receive due consid-

STTa HAT the work of mosquito determination in Essex county
this season has been we'll done nobody can doubt or deny.
The pest was not entirely destroyed, and that was not
expected. The county commission could deal efectually with all
the large and small breeding places that had abounded, but it
could not guard against the carelessness of many people who
keep stagnant water about their premises. Future regulation
by law with fines for these offenders will prove a remedy. The
mosquito determination act has been amply justified by results
and it's repeal by the Legislature at the demand of some par.
simonious county that is willing to suffer the pest rather than
pay the small price for getting rid of it is not possible.

The AUGUST ESTIMATE FOR NoyEMBER.

NARLY in the week National Chairman Hilles gave out an
LIZ estimate of the presidential election results. 1t appropri-
ated nearly all the North and West for Taft, as well as
Kentucky Tennessee and Maryland, conceded the rest of the
South to the Democrats and left the Progressive party nowhere.
1t didn't even concede one of the Dakotas. California was doubt
fnI. As estimates are necessary features of a presidential cam
paign, a Democratic one has now been given out at Sea Girt.
Wilson is to carry all but ten States, which may possibly be
divided up between Taft and Roosevelt. Indeed, reports show
that Vermont and Rhode Island are the only States that may
be considered doubtful But isn't it child's play to put forth
claims at this time when the claimants haven't the slightest
idea how their own election districts will vote in November?

TAFT BANKING ON
C. 0.P. REGULARITY
Expects Sentiment Will Swing
Doubtful Voters Into
Line.

WASHINGTON. Aug. lin an in
formal address delivered to members
of the Maryland Republican Editorial
Association in the EAST room of the
White House, President Taft declared
that the feeling of respect for the
regularity" of the Republican party,
which. he said, was general, would be
a big factor in swinging doubtful vot-
ers ove to it's support before election.
"All we ask is a fair fight" he
said. "A man cannot be in the Re-
publican party and in a third party
at the same time and should be COM
PEELED to make his selection.
1T therefore is essential that We
make the cleavage, as clear as 1t can
be made, so that those who are Re-
publicans shall be Republicans, and
those who are with the boilers, shall
bear their name and title and not be
Republicans and boilers, because they
cannot beat least, they ought not
to be in all, fairness.
I'VE are Republicans. That means
that we believe in certain principles;
that we believe in the Constitution of
the United States; that we believe in
maintaining that Constitution; that
we believe in progress along the lines
that that Constitution indicates.
I'VE are protectionists and we are
in favor of maintaining the present
prosperity by maintaining a tariff
system which shall preserve business
&C ~ Tr4o1 ~ -4r - -L@It -AAs.-- -
high wages as possible to the wage
earners and a reasonable profit to
those who invest their capital. Those
two propositions cover a. good deal of
Republicanism."
This vas the first speech of a po-
litical trend made by the President
since he was notified of his renomina-
ton.

A FoLLETTE's ATTITUDE IN THE CAMPAIGN.

@ENATOR LA FOLLETTES incidental statement in the
- Senate yesterday that he would support Taft against
Roosevelt disposes of the belief that he will give his sup
port to Wilson. which, however, he would be debarred from do
ing because he is a protectiOnist and Wilson is not. Tie tariff
uuestion alone would keep La Toilette out of the Democratic
camp. But at the same time he is at odds with Taft over that
and many other great national questions and is one of the Pro
gressive Senators whom Taft attempted to read out of the party
in 1910. On the tariff and trusts and on conservation La Fol.
lette has agreed with Roosevelt. But there is no secret as to
the attitude of the Wisconsin Senator. He really did believe
that he had the Chicago nomination in his grasp and that he
was betrayed. And yet no nomination was less likely.
