RAILROADS. DUTY
TO USE ALL DOCKS
Important Ruling Made by Inter-
state Commerce Commission
Effecting Deliveries.

A railroad wharf. to which the
roads tariffs offer delivery and at
which part of the shipping public is
served, becomes public terminal,
and II all shippers are not given ac-
cess to It by the boats they choose
TO employ, II becomes the duty of the
railroad to make delivery at other
available docks at the same rates.
A decision to this effect was rem
dered by the Interstate Commerce
Commission in the complaint of the
Mobile, Ala, chamber of commerce,
against the Mobile and Ohio. South
ern, and other railroads. The decision
was written by Chairman Lane. and
is of sweeping Importance to the
commercial interests and the railroads
of the United States.
The Mobile chamber of commerce
complained that the Mobile and Ohio
and the Southern each owned docks
In Mobile and that they would make
ship side deliveries to either of these
docks without extra charge, or a
greater charge than the through rate
to and from Mobile. II. however. a
shipper wanted to ship by steamer
using the city dock, an extra charge
was made.

and-a-half years. Furthermore, If Mr..
Taft had been sincere in his attack OF
four lines upon Cox in his Akron ad-
dress, when Cox was in full power then
why did Mr.. Taft, as President make a
special trip to Cincinnati last year Just
at the time when Cox was very rapidly
losing ground and there cast his vote
for the entire and solid ticket of George
B. Cox? II Cox had been opposed by
men as bad or notorious as himself

that was not the case by any means
On the other hand Cox was opposed by
a sterling type of young man named
Hunt, whose record spoke for itself, and
a strong band OF progressives.
The beginning OF CoXs overthrow

Hunt was elected district attorney and
ended in Cox's complete overthrow at

people. and 1t was even greater because
he and his entire ticket was elected in
spite of President Taft's vote for Cox's
entire ticket.
Now, in the face of these facts, how
can anybody, especially one who claims
to be familiar with Ohio politics make
such a ridiculous statement to the ef-
feet that President Taft was responsible
for Cox's overthrow. Mayor Hunt and
that noble little group of honest and

HERE is SOME REAL WORK FOR CHAM.
BER OF COMMERCE.

There is pending in Congress measure, which
has passed one branch and has powerful support in
the other to reduce to Ave years the tenure Of all
positions in the civil service.
Should this measure pass it would end posi-
bility of permanent residence in Washington by
civil service employees.
1t would make home ownership among the $4,000
civil service people in this town utterly impossible.
1t would make Washington the greatest aggre-
cation Of boarding houses on earth, occupied by
young men and women holding temporary places,
unwilling to regard themselves citizens, realizing
that they only wayfarers, not daring to acquire
a stake in the community, always in light marching
order, because always anticipating the time when
they must give up their desks to others who in turn
would be similarly temporary sojourners-never
citizens.
That legislation, should it pass, would end the
business of home-buying in Washington so far as
the Government employees are concerned.
HERE is REAL OPPORTUNITY FOR THE
CHAMBER OF COMMERCE, FOR EVERY OTHER
BUSINESS ORGANIZATION, AND FOR EVERY
INDIVIDUAL CITIZEN IN WASHINGTON TO
DO SOME REAL WORK IN DEFEATING LEGIS-
LATION FATAL TO THE INTERESTS OF THE
CITY AND ITS MERCHANTS.

LOCAL POSTAL SAVINGS.

Owing to the popularity of the postal savings
bank department at the Washington Postoffice, the
Postmaster General has decided to install five other
postal savings banks at various substatons of the
i local Postoffice. The records show that the one
bank now in operation now has approximately $780,,
OOO Although in operation but few months and
confined to a limited number of offices the postal
savings department of the Government now has on
deposit over $l6,OO0,00O. This accumulation has not
been at the expense of the ordinary savings bank
other banking institutions
1t represents partial amount of the money that
has been hidden away This increase in the amount
of available currency augurs we'll for the financial
future of the nation. 1t is great potential preven-
tive of financial strngency due to panics. If peo-
pie can be persuaded to take money out of tea-cups
tincans and old socks, where they have been keep
ing it because of childish distrust of banks, and
place it in the hands of the Government savings
banks, it stands to reason that in event of panic
money now in banks instead of being checked out
and Withdrawn from crculation-thus aggravating
conditons-will simply be transferred, for the time
being, to the postal savings banks, where it will
prove the saving element during financial stress.

Catherine.

In Memory OF Catherine Francis cavanagh,
who "crossed the bar" March 8. 1912.
The cortege passed through the noisy street
With curtains drawn. while the horses feet
Came to my ear with a mufned beat.
So still she lay.
The day was gloomy, and chill. and bare,
With no hint Of spring in the cold. keen air
Tho she loved the sunshine and roses fair
In an olden day.
Her face was white as the lilies pressed
In the small cold hand o'er the pulseles.
breast,
For the weary brain had at last found rest
In a dreamless sleep.
She cuIled Hfe's roses in early May,
For Fate soon shadowed each sunny ray
That true love threw round her onward way,
And left AaE to weep.
But she came Of a strong and sturdy race
And she won for herself an honored place,
Where she wrought with matchless skin ant
grace
In the world Of men.
So they called her great, but weak and small
Though her brave heart uttered no longing
call
with tongue or pen.
Gave to her eyes more wistful light
And her eag1r face grew strangely bright
As she gazed afar
She listened to hear the sunset bell
But ere II could peal its rhythmic kneT
She smiled, and murmured her last farewell
Ere she crossed the bar.

AMENDING THE CONSTITUTION.

The Southern members Of the House are entitled
to honorable distinction for letting the direct Sena
toria election resolution finally pass with such an
emphatic majority 1t will be the stronger before the
country and the legislatures
1t is safe to say that If nationwide plebiscitt
could be taken, more than 80 per cent would favor
direct Senatorial elections Yet there is real doubt
whether the amendment will get the Endorsements CT
the necessary number of legislatures The processes
of pigeonholing of packed committees set up in the
dark for special purposes, of dodging action, Of d.
vding responsibity-all these we'll under
stood that it is not needful to recount them.
There is already pending before the legislatures
the proposal for an income tax amendment, and it
is yet uncertain after three years, whether it will
be adopted AS to the attitude of the people toward
it, there is no uncertainty than in the of
direct elections. But the machinery of constitu-
tional amendment is so complicated, lends itself so
readily to opposition, that it is become doubtful
, whether our Constitution can be amended at all 1t
is perfectly certain that amendment is impossible
save as to proposition which there is prac-
tically unanimous demand for the change.
The disposition to prevent the people getting any
thing they want, in the way of constitutional revi
sen, is going to react the tories. 1t is safe to
say that if determined effort is made to prevent
the legislatures accepting the direct elections amend
ment and if the fight for the income tax measure
fails for another year, there will be serious effort
to constitutional convention, through direct
action of the people upon the State legislatures That
would mean general revision of the Constitution

Thinks Personal Liberty Not q Factor
In the LIQUOR Question.

To the Editor OF THE TINES:
Some honest. but, I believe. misguided
people uphold the liquor traffic and
urge as their reason for doing so that
it is an infringement of a mans per
sonal liberty" to prevent him from
drinking II he wants to. Some of these
people say that they rarely, IL ever
take a drink. but that as a matter OF
principle they defend their personal
liberty"
Since we are all responsible for the
way in which we exert our influence,
and since statistics show that 80 per
cent of the people who are in the poor
houses, insane asylums. and peniten-
tiaries of the country were put there
by liquor 1t would seem that no one
ought to want the personal liberty" to
uphold a traffic that produces such re-
suits as those. II a mans personal lib
erty demands that he be permitted to
get whisky when he wants II and to
give 1t to others. then why not opium or
any other debasing commodity to rob
men of their self-respect. their health,
and their usefulness as members of
society, FRANK G. CAMPBELL.

infrcauently as Halley's comet. Some

were nothing less than a commercial
proposition: that the author wrote them
for money, and the purchaser paid
money for them. believing that he would

worldly cares while perusinz them. 10

aged and respectable citizen OF a town
has been accused OF bribetaking by the

THE END OF THE CONTEST.

Colonel Roosevelt, whose skill as a politician
needs testimonials, has actual, worth while
hard-pan information about how he stands with the
delegates to the Chicago convention than any other
man on EARTH Its the way he does his politics.
When, therefore, the colonel formally announces
that he knows he has the Chicago convention sur
rounded, and will be nominated on the first ballot
it may be, as it is accepted as representing the full
est information and the most accurate judgment.
The contest is ended 1t is the first one since
Andrew Jackson in which such striking demonstra
tion has been given of the peoples capacity, once
aroused, to take charge and run things their
way. The nominations, generally speaking have
been made by the politicians. There has been the
pleasant rule that President entitled to second
term. That rule has been smashed, because the
people were not for it,
There has been a tradition, now exploded, that
Washington was opposed on principle to third term
for any man, and that the country woul ldnt give any
man third term.
The tradition has been brushed aside by the de-
velopment of the fact that Washington never enter
tanned any such notion, while the superstition has
gone the way of other dogmas that never had any
excuse for common acceptance.
Roosevelt became a candidate when almost
everybody else thought it was too late for him to
win. He threw himself into the fight with the de-
mand that the people be given chance to settle
the issue. He demanded that the popular primary
be employed in making the nomination, and his ap-
peal brought such response that dozen States at
length lined up in favor of this plan.
That was the coup that won. The primary States
became battery of megaphones through which the
voice of the people made itself heard 1t spoke with
no uncertainty 1t wanted Roosevelt. Every sue
cessve victory for him strengthened the purpose of
the people and weakened the purpose of the bosses.
The people would not be denied; the machines went
crashing down. one after another, in defeat and
in the last three weeks it has been perfectly plain
that nothing could stand before the onslaught of
popular insistence.
Just in proportion Roosevelts prospect of
nomination has improved, Democratic hope of carry
ing the country has faded
Roosevelt has made his campaign on the promise
to give their Government back into the hands of
the people. He has won on that promise, and he
will execute it, because the people will stand back
of him, in the White House, as they stood back Of
him when he was there before, and as they have
stood back of him during this unprecedented cam
paign.
