nishes an additional convenience for the
intended uses of the streets. Instead
of the governmental construction and
maintenance OF such additional convent
ences,. Congress has preferred to dele
gate the exercise of the power to pri-
vate corporations. These. organized
primarily for private profit, neverthe-
less perform a public function which
renders them subject to regulation and
control by the power from which they
derive their privileges. This power of
regulation relates not only to fares but
also to the maintenance of tracks,
schedules, ETC., and connections with
other lines in the aid of public safety,
comfort and convenience
THE reasonable exercise of this
power OF regulation does not abridge
the right of private ownership. It is
only when the regulation imposes such
q burden upon private property lawfully
engaged in the performance of a pub
lie service as to render the property
Unremunerative, that it becomes un-
reasonable and amounts to a depriva-
ton of private property without due
process Of law, or to its taking for
public use without compensation. Then
only is it a violation of the Fifth
Amendment"

lyon know it was found after the
death of e. Fl. Hartman, who was
as shrewd and quick witted q man
as the American business world ever
produced, that a small part OF ms

called 'cats-and-dogs.

Mr.. Hartman might have peen

but how 1t was possible Tor
promoter to take in as shrewd man
as Goodwin Smith, who prided MIN
self upon his skill in reading men anu
fathoming their motives, cannot
understand And yet that was done
a few years before Professor smith
death. Goodwin Smith was said 10 De
a man without any passions. HIS
intellect was as clear as crystal anu
his temperament was as cold as ice

clearly revealed in Professor Snlth ,

of the magnificence of the mineral
resources of upper Canada and drew
Professor Smith into conversation
upon the geographical and climatic
characteristics of that vast region.
He started in the right way, for he
interested Professor Smith on the
side of his scholarship and of the
development of the resources OF Can
ada. Then, gradually and very
adroitly, he called the attention of
the professor to some of the ore
which he said had recently been
taken out of a mine. 1t assayed, he
asserted, an almost fabulous wealth.
He showed specimens of the ore, and,
to make long story short, he actu-
ally persuaded Professor Goodwin
Smith to part with about $4,000 good
money and to take for it block or
stock in this mine which, I believe,
was found to be practically worth
less. I don't believe Goodwin Smith
was ever taken in before. | think
he was somewhat mortified when he
found that he had been taken in
by this promoter"

Yes" replied the senator, that
story is true. promoter with whom

There is an influence, while this
