pretty we'll managed says the Lafay-

The complaint of the American
public has never been particularly
addressed to the point of exorbitant
freight rates. Freight rates are low,
and are so admitted; but the conten-
tion has been, where fault is found,
that the railroads have been discrim-
inatory. This contention has been
true; but rate discrimination is a
matter now pretty generally obviat-
ed With rate discrimination elimin-
ated and with reasonable showing
that a slight increase is necessary,
the public will doubtless not object.
When the president of a great To-

lof private interest. But as already
suggested in these columns, private
interest and public interest need not
necessarily run in opposite directions.
| 1t is conceivable that the railroads do
need more locomotives and more roll
ing stock in general. Mr.. Johnson
points out that, after agriculture,
lrailroading is the greatest industry
in the country and that money spent
in providing for it's needs is bound
to have a Stimulating effect on busi-
ness the country over.
AS already contended a number of
times in these columns. when given
industry fails to pay an attractive re-
turn on the capital invested, that
capital will go elsewhere IL it can.
Surely, when capital invested fails
to get an attractive return, fresh
capital, of a certainty, will not be
attracted. This seems to be the case
just now in American railroading.
While the roads are nearly holding
their own on the present basis, nev-
ertheless, there has been no particu-
lar railroad advance in some years
Railroading is just now in a state
where it is not attracting the capital

as part of the fundamental dogma
of the Catholic church, of the doc
trine of the Assumption of the Virgin
Mary. The feast of the Assumption
of the Blessed Virgin Mary is set
down in the Catholic calendar of es-

and it is limited that his Holiness
may make his proclamation tomor-
row. Should he succeed in carrying
out his present desire, 1T will be the
first time dogma has been proclaim
ed by a pope since 1870, the last time
previous to that being in 1854
1t is now known that since his re-
cent illness Pope Plus, realizing that
his active pontifcate is practically at
an end, has expressed the desire to
some of the highest dignitaries of the
Catholic church at Rome to round
out his career by this last great act.
During his entire pontificate Pope
Plus x, has devoted practically his
entire time. effort and energy to the
building up of the religious side OF
the church only. paying little, IL any,
attention to the political side, which
had been the sole concern of his pre-
decessor, XIII.
The proclamation of this new
dogma by him now, as the last great
act of his pontificate, would be in
perfect harmony, he is said to feel,
with all that he has sought to accom-
plish up to date. 1t would stamp his
entire pontificate as one ESSENTIALLY

In current periodical of this
week Alba B. Johnson, president of

makes an interesting contention. His
plea is that the railroads of the
country be allowed to raise their
rates.
If there is to be any objection to a
raise in rates, Mr.. Johnson correctly
surmises that the objection will come
because there is a prevalent notion
that the raise. If allowed, would go
to pay returns on watered stock Ac-
cordingly, his contention is addressed
almost wholly to an attempt at show
ing that American railroads, in gen.
