meath IA rock In the main entry Of the

The Business Situation
CFrom the Washington Post)

Forecasts OF the ruling of the In
ter-state Commerce Commission on
the freight rate question indicate
that the railroads will have to be
content with a little less than half
n loaf and lot Of excellent advice.
The public is apt to conclude that
the revelations OF mismanagement
and extravaganza in the New Haven
and one or two other systems have
influenced the commerce commission
IN its ruling and probably there is
some reason for this conclusion. The
commission is in possession Of more
facts than the public can possibly ac-
quire or assimilate. and perhaps the
commission could point 10 gross ex-
travagance in railroads which have
rot attracted public attention on that
point
Wall street has already discounted
the effect of a ruling such as has been
forecast. II is not likely that the
security market already squeezed
down, will suffer a collapse when the
ruling IS made public Many ad-
verse influences have been at work
forcing railroads and industrial con-
Germs to trim their sails. and a ruling
on freight rates which gives the rail
roads partial relief will be likely to

Scientific investigation has disclosed that the female

has revealed that the mosquito does not generate

blood of a person who has malaria. The work OF

The country is prepared to tran

The Sherman antitrust law so

under the protection Of statute
that IL enforced by the Department OF

POLITICAL AND CORPORATE THIEVES.

nj o one who has kept himself informed I'm recent
IN years on the trend of political and corporate
events. doubts that the American public has lost more
through the looting public treasures by dishonest
politicians than has through the oong of corporate
treasures by dishonest officers and directors. The
matter is clearly and tersey expressed in the follow
ing letter which appears in the New York Sun:
To the Editor of The Sun-Sir: The report Of the
Interstate Commerce Commission arraignng the
agenent of the New Haven Railroad is a masterpiece
OF vuperatiye rhetoric but in the midst of all the
citement that it has caused should keep eye
on the politicians, lest hidden in the smoke these
now frequent anti-railrOad explosions they commit
still greater depredatons on the pocketbooks Of tax
payers.
Undoubtedly stockholders have lost a great deal Of
and New Haven railroad securities but the total
sum lost Is small when against the immense
sums disspated annually by the Washington politi-
clans. Before adopting the 81 thank thee Lord. that

cut OUT the mileage and pork barrel graft abolish
the river and harbor swndle. investigate the colossal
pension fraud, cease attempting to raid the civil
vice and 10 it that the railroads properly paid

Handing out the taxpayers money in order to buy
the votes Of constituents is quite dishonest as the

In a signed article in the Com
moner Mr.. Bryan emits more of his
artless new school Jeffersonianism.
Whose fault is it if Congress has not
written the whole blessed Baltimore
platform on the statute books?
"The President has been diligent
in season and out of season; he has
kept the members of Congress to-
gether in continuous sessions ever
since he entered upon the duties OF
the office. Surely no blame can be
attached TO him, for he has kept the
hopper full Of remedial legislation.
The fault has been with the mill
stones-the two houses OF Congress-
which must concur in legislation.
And the fault has not been with the
House of Representatives either. be-
cause that body has promptly passed
the measures recommended by the
President; there has not been the
slightest discord between the Presi-
dent and the House"
Evidently Mr.. Bryan regards il as
unfortunate that concurrence Of the
House and Senate is necessary under
the old Constitution of despotism.
