II was a humiliating position in
which the son OF Abraham Lincoln
found himself when he admitted to
the industrial commission that the
great Pullman company was the real
recipient of the tips to its colored por.
ters. This concern, whose stock is so
closely held and so highly valued as
to be almost never sold. has paid on
an average S per cent ever since It's
foundation. At the same time. it gives
to its colored employees less than a
living wage, and expects them to make
up the difference between that and
what they need to live on out Of the
gratuities OF travellers. MIR. Lincoln
thought that on the whole the com
pany was entitled TO great credit for
keeping this field OF employment open
to Negroes, who are so often discrim-
mated against. But 1t may well be
doubted whether the philanthropic
motive would be noticed in the Pull
man company If 1t were compelled
TO pay the wages ii should The la
borer is worthy of his hire; and when
Mr.. Lincoln so complacently patted
himself on the back for employing
colored labor at all. he ought to re-
member that failure to obtain sufficient
tips by reason of interference with
traffic, slackness of travel. or hard
times has brought many a porter's
family face to face with genuine suf-
fering-even when he wore four and
five service stripes on his coat-sleeve.
That under these circumstances por-
ters have yielded so little to tempta'
tion that their record for fidelity and
honesty and for heroic service in ac-
cidents is admirable, is plainly no fault
OF Lincoln's son. The descendants
OF the men the father freed have long
been exploited, overworked-often
without sleep enough for long stretches

emancipator' son has been the head.

Washington, d. C.-The railroads

$4,000 miles of track west of Chicago,

the interstate commerce commission

cents to pig cents per mile.
The new interstate fares will be-
come effective on March l and will be
filed by the roads of the Western Pas
senger association territory at this
time, so complaints against them may
be investigated by the commission
during the freight rate hearing which
will start in Chicago on Feb. Is.
Similar advances have been made
by the railroads in Central Freight as

by the board and the commission has
advised increases in a former rate

He loved to hear the boys sing their songs In
camp. He loved homely ballads and simple dit

show him was to sing simple tunes. AS one friend
admits "often have seen him in tears while

He found great delight in the laughter and
pranks OF children. He allowed his own boys
great freedom in the White House. He often let
their msdemeanors go unpublished because every
thing about children gave him recreation and
pleasure. The keeper in the White House tells
this story showing his love for children: I'VE

the proud carriage of a king and the
blind obedience of a soldier; tic

in order that all the world may have
abundant harvest; that furnishes the
sport of kings. that with blazing eye
and distended nostril fearlessly leads
our greatest Generals through car

trappings. pulls the humblest of us

ENTIRE FISCAL COURT
INDICTED IN BULL|TT
For Failure To Keep the County
Roads In Proper
Condition.

Shelbyville, KY, Aug. lin
dictments against the members of
the Bullitt County Fiscal Court and
the County Road Engineer were re-
turned by the grand jury here on
the charge of neglect of duty
through failure to keep the public
roads in good condition. No arrests
have been made yet.
The action of the grand jury to-
day followed more than a year of
disagreement between the county Of
ficials and the citizens as to the
method of providing money for the
upkeep of the county highways.
Up until a few years ago every
able-bodied man between the ages
of IS and so was liable for four
days of free work in the course of a
year on the roads. II was also the
custom then to appropriate $40 a
mile for the upkeep of every first
class road and $40 for those of the
second-class.
When this plan was abolished the
Fiscal Court voted to appropriate
SO mile for every Dad. provided
that the citizens living on the high
way gave an equal amount. So
much opposition deyeloed against
this plan, however that It was final
ly abandoned by the officials.
For the last year there has been
very little work done on any of the
roads in this county and the grand
jury found no trouble in obtaining
witnesses to testify before IL in the
investigation into the matter 1t has
Just completed.
